Forests: when natural regeneration is unrealistic [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2019
Monoculture or mixed-species tree plantations could be better alternatives in highly degraded areas that are distant from native seed sources. Financial compensation for landowners who conserve carbon, water or biodiversity in regenerating forests might not match incomes from agriculture or commercial forestry.

The main challenges of sustainable forest management in the Amazon: why sustainable forest management in the Amazon should be reinforced? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Since the last 50 years, tropical natural forests have been intensively logged in the tropics to supply the increasing demand of tropical timber. Unplanned logging operations caused forest degradation leading to their conversion due to the loss of their ...

Associated Insects Reared from Galls of Saperda Inornata (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) on Trembling Aspen in Michigan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The poplar gall Saperda, Saperda inornata Say, is a common pest of trembling aspen, Populus tremuloides Michx, in Michigan forests. Through its egg-laying activities and larval feeding, this insect causes wood defects and tree mortality (Graham et al ...

DNA methylation and expression of MAPRE3 affect overall survival of early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Both cg12821679MAPRE3 methylation and MAPRE3 expression are significantly associated with overall survival (OS) of non‐small cell lung cancer. Meanwhile, MAPRE3 expression significantly modified the effect of smoking cessation on OS. Smoking cessation benefits OS merely for patients with high MAPRE3 expression.

Acceleration of the Gradenbach-Eggerberg rock slope deformation

open access: yesGeoenvironmental Disasters
Background The slope deformation of the Eggerbach slope above the Gradenbach river in Carinthia, Austria, has been monitored since 1966 following a critical acceleration event that caused damming and erosion of the Gradenbach river, resulting in ...

Particle trajectories, velocities, accelerations and rotation rates in snow avalanches

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
Understanding the dynamics of snow avalanches is crucial for predicting their destructive potential and mobility. To gain insight into avalanche dynamics at a particle level, the AvaNode in-flow sensor system was developed.

Chemical composition of throughfall in Pinus eldarica and Cupressus arizonica plantations in a polluted area (Case study: Chitgar forest park) [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2012
This research was carried out to compare the chemical composition of throughfall (TF), i.e., lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) as well as electrical conductivity (EC) and acidity (pH) beneath Pinus eldarica and Cupressus arizonica plantations with open field ...

Fir-dominated forests in Bavaria, Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The map of “Regional natural forest composition by main tree species” (WALENTOWSKI et al. 2001) depicts Bavaria as a region largely predominated by the European beech (Fagus sylvatica).

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.
