Dating the diversification of pleurocarpous mosses
The pleurocarpous mosses are a highly diverse monophyletic lineage, comprising about 42% of the approximately13,000 extant species of mosses. Phylogenetic analysis of molecular data suggests that the pleurocarps diversified over a (geologically) short ...

Unraveling the paradox of child growth in Tanzania’s breadbasket regions: impact of household food production [PDF]
Tanzania’s food supply relies heavily on crop production from its breadbasket regions (BBRs). Despite their central role in national agriculture, the 2018 National Nutrition Survey revealed a troubling paradox: five of the regions with the highest

Photosynthetic responses of three common mosses from continental Antarctica [PDF]
Predicting the effects of climate change on Antarctic terrestrial vegetation requires a better knowledge of the ecophysiology of common moss species. In this paper we provide a comprehensive matrix for photosynthesis and major environmental parameters ...

Do Nitrogen and Phosphorus Additions Affect Nitrogen Fixation Associated with Tropical Mosses?
Tropical cloud forests are characterized by abundant and biodiverse mosses which grow epiphytically as well as on the ground. Nitrogen (N)-fixing cyanobacteria live in association with most mosses, and contribute greatly to the N pool via biological ...

Combined Geophysical Methods in Extreme Environments—An Example from the Dead Sea
The application of geophysical methods in saline environments is limited in their ability to discern shallow subsurface geology and tectonics due to the high subsurface conductivity, which can play havoc with the geophysical signal. Recent changes in the
