Agriculture and urban expansion have caused fragmentation of the remaining forests located along the Otún and Consotá river watershed in the municipality of Pereira, Department of Risaralda, Colombia. These forests are dominated by the guadua bamboo species Guadua angustifolia Kunth, which provid-ed raw material for different purposes and additionally ...

Length curves and volume functions for guadua bamboo (Guadua angustifolia Kunth) for the coffee region of Colombia [PDF]
Three models for the prediction of bamboo culm length and two for culm volume were fitted from data of 303 guadua bamboo (Guadua angustifolia Kunth) culms. Data are from 101 temporary inventory plots systematically distributed over the coffee region of Colombia (inventory area about 1,029,525 ha).

Quality and Conservation of Riparian Forest in a Mountain Subtropical Basin of Argentina
The aims of this work were to describe the conservation status of riparian forests located in a mountain subtropical basin of Tucumán province, Argentina, and assess how the quality of riparian forests is related with altitude, plant species richness, proportion of exotic species, and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) in adjacent rivers.

The vibrational modes and compositional behavior of plant material of Guadua angustifolia Kunth Variety Bicolor (GAKVB) and the characteristics associated with color changes were evaluated by Raman, infrared, and energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy. In the vibrational spectra, the frequencies of 1598, 2099, and 845 cm−1 were associated with yellow and

Elastic Module Study of the Radial Section of Guadua angustifolia Kunth Variety Bicolor
Elastic modulus of the radial section of the Guadua angustifolia Kunth variety Bicolor was studied by technique of propagation of acoustic waves; the signal time delay in the samples was used as the control parameter. The studies were carried out in the culm cross‐section in radial direction.

Methane Emissions From Flame Curtain Pyrolysis (Kon‐Tiki)
Flame curtain pyrolysis enables decentralized biochar production, but its net climate benefit depends on the magnitude of methane emissions caused during production. Methane emissions were below 5 g CH4 kg−1 biochar for dry feedstocks but increased for moist feedstocks. Pyrolysis emitted less methane than open burning of wheat straw. ABSTRACT Pyrogenic

The decay resistance and hyphae penetration of bamboo Gigantochloa scortechinii decayed by white and brown rot fungi were investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The bamboo grown in natural stand from three different age classes of 0.5, 3.5, and 6.5 years was harvested, oven dried, sterilised, and exposed to agar media containing 4% malt
