Impacts of reindeer grazing on phosphorus sorption and nutrient availability in a tundra site
Oikos, EarlyView.Reindeer Rangifer tarandus, a large circumpolar herbivore, can influence whether nitrogen (N) or phosphorus (P) is the primary limiting nutrient in tundra plant communities. Specifically, findings from a site in northern Scandinavia suggest that under conditions where reindeer grazing stimulates inorganic N availability, grazing may drive ecosystems ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Masterbatch‐Assisted Fabrication of Polylactic Acid/Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanocomposites. ABSTRACT Polylactic acid (PLA) is a promising bio‐based polymer; nonetheless, its extensive application is still limited by poor fracture toughness, low thermal stability, and strong susceptibility to degradation induced by ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Synthesis of Polyester Nanofiltration Membrane for Removal of Natural Organic Matter [PDF]
, 2012 Natural Organic Matter (NOM) in surface water usually refers to humic and fulvic acids that are decayed by-products of plants such as those found in surface waters shallow well aquifers. Performance on humic acid removal from natural organic matter using

Rheology–Performance Framework for PA6/GO Nanocomposites via a Hybrid Processing Route
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.Hybrid PA6/GO nanocomposites with tuned melt rheology and improved thermal–mechanical performance. ABSTRACT Balancing melt processability with stiffness and heat resistance remains a central challenge for PA6 nanocomposites. Here, graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized by a modified Hummers method and incorporated into PA6 via a hybrid route (solution ...

Mitigation of GHGs Emission From Soils by a Catalyzed In-Situ Photo-Oxidative Polymerization of Soil Organic Matter [PDF]
, 2010 Agricultural lands under food and bio-energy crops, managed grass and permanent crops including agro-forestry, occupy about 40-50% of the Earth's land surface^1^. In 2005, agriculture accounted for an estimated emission of 5.1 to 6.1 GtCO2-eq/yr (10-

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in
