Chemical Profiles of Essential Oils and Non-Polar Extractables from Sumac (Rhus spp.) [PDF]
Sumac is the common name for a genus (Rhus) with >250 individual species of flowering plants in the family Anacardiaceae. These plants are globally distributed in temperate and tropical regions and can grow on marginal lands, making them strong ...

Leaf-wax n -alkanes record the plant–water environment at leaf flush [PDF]
Leaf-wax n -alkanes 2 H/ 1 H ratios are widely used as a proxy in climate reconstruction. Although the broad nature of the relationship between n -alkanes δ 2 H values and climate is appreciated, the quantitative details ...

Epicuticular Leaf Wax of Cistus albanicus, Cistaceae
The epicuticular wax of Cistus albanicus was investigated. Homologous series of alkanes, wax esters, alcohols and long chain fatty acids were identified. The alcohol fraction consisted of primary and most probably of secondary alcohols.

Plio‐Pleistocene Southwest African Hydroclimate Modulated by Benguela and Indian Ocean Temperatures
Future projections of southwestern African hydroclimate are highly uncertain. However, insights from past warm climates, like the Pliocene, can reveal mechanisms of future change and help benchmark models.
