Forest Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Cycles under Biomass Harvest: Stability, Transient Response, and Feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Biomass harvest generates an imbalance in forest carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles and the nonlinear biogeochemical responses may have long-term consequences for soil fertility and sustainable management.

Understanding plant responses to drought: how important is woody tissue photosynthesis? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Within trees, it is known that a part of the respired CO2 is assimilated in chlorophyll-containing stem and branch tissues. However, the role of this woody tissue photosynthesis in tree functioning remains unclear, in particular under drought stress ...

Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.

Modulating the phenology and yield of camelina sativa L. by varying sowing dates under water deficit stress conditions

open access: yesSoil & Environment, 2017
Camelina (Camelina sativa L.) an oilseed crop has emerged as a potential source for biofuels and bio-products. Camelina is an economic crop due to its less requirements of agronomic inputs as compared to other oilseed crops.

Toward a physiological explanation of juvenile growth curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Juvenile growth curves are generally sigmoid in shape: Growth is initially nearly exponential, but it slows to near zero as the animal approaches maturity.

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Ethylene Inhibitors Increase Net Assimilation Rate and Cotton Boll Dry Matter Under Drought

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Science, 2014
Although the ethylene inhibitors role on reduction rate of boll abscission in cotton plants submitted to drought is being recently reported, its effects on photosynthesis performance and on cotton boll dry matter across the sympodial branch is scarce.

Carbon dioxide concentration in Mediterranean greenhouses : how much lost production? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In the absence of artificial supply of carbon dioxide in the greenhouse environment, the CO2 absorbed in the process of photosynthesis must ultimately come from the external ambient through the ventilation openings.
