open access: yesTextual Practice, 2019
Abstract: ‘Notes on “Lichen”’ develops a lichenised homage to Susan Sontag’s ‘Notes on “Camp”’, rewilding Sontag’s essay to suggest a poetics of Lichen, a poetics associated symbiotically with the manifestos of Donna Haraway. This Lichen poetics engages with questions of symbiosis and solidarity, mutualism and collective voicing, sketching the turn ...

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Mobilizing mine lands for biobased decarbonization strategies

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Over 163 000 ha of mine lands in Pennsylvania (PA) have the potential to produce willow as a feedstock for renewable energy generation. Each year these lands could produce between 454 000 and 907 000 dry Mg of willow, which can be a feedstock for bioenergy (i.e., biopower) with carbon capture and sequestration (BECCS) or sustainable aviation ...

Estimation of lichen biomass with emphasis on reindeer winter pastures at Hardangervidda, S Norway

open access: yesRangifer, 2014
Quantification of lichen abundance is important for management of reindeer populations. We measured dry lichen biomass in 876 micro plots (16.5 cm × 16.5 cm) systematically sampled within 219 vegetation plots (2 m × 2 m) from 7 different areas in S ...

Insights into the Mechanism of a Vanadium Bromoperoxidase from the Marine Macro‐Algae Corallina pilulifera for Biocatalytic Halogenation

open access: yesChemCatChem, EarlyView.
A study of crystallographic complexes obtained from vanadium haloperoxidase enzymes can determine key amino acids, leucine, and phenylalanine, that change their structural orientation to allow either chloride or bromide to bind to the enzymes active site, thereby determining halide specificity.
