Lifespan extension without fertility reduction following dietary addition of the autophagy activator Torin1 in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Autophagy is a highly conserved mechanism for cellular repair that becomes progressively down-regulated during normal ageing. Hence, manipulations that activate autophagy could increase lifespan.

A process-based model of conifer forest structure and function with special emphasis on leaf lifespan [PDF]

, 2002
We describe the University of Sheffield Conifer Model (USCM), a process-based approach for simulating conifer forest carbon, nitrogen, and water fluxes by up-scaling widely applicable relationships between leaf lifespan and function. The USCM is designed

Sixty Years of Speech: A Study of Language Change in Adulthood

Lifespans and Styles, 2016
Research on language change has been complicated and hindered by the problem of obtaining quality data. In many cases, the large volume of time required to collect recorded speech at different intervals, as necessary in lifespan studies, is prohibitive ...

Analysis and Prediction of Gap Dynamics in a Secondary Deciduous Broadleaf Forest of Central Japan Using Airborne Multi-LiDAR Observations

Remote Sensing, 2020
Gaps are important for growth of vegetation on the forest floor. However, monitoring of gaps in large areas is difficult. Airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data make precise gap mapping possible.

Stochastic colonization of hosts with a finite lifespan can drive individual host microbes out of equilibrium.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2020
Macroorganisms are inhabited by microbial communities that often change through the lifespan of an individual. One of the factors contributing to this change is colonization from the environment.
