Adaptive Algal Cultivation Enabled by a Monthly Biomass Forecasting System

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
The developed monthly algal forecasting system used to predict biomass production for two algal strains (A and B) at two pond water depths (low and high). The highest predicted production, achieved with strain A at a low pond water depth, is selected as the cultivation strategy to guide the next month's algal growth.

Hydroclimate variability and its statistical links to the large-scale climate indices for the Upper Chao Phraya River Basin, Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The local hydroclimates get impacts from the large-scale atmospheric variables via atmospheric circulation. The developing of their relationships could enhance the understanding of hydroclimate variability.

Why we age

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

Chemical signatures of aged Pacific marine air: Mixed layer and free troposphere as measured during PEM-West A [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The Pacific Ocean is one of the few remaining regions of the northern hemisphere that is relatively free of direct anthropogenic emissions. However, long-range transport of air pollutants is beginning to have a significant impact on the atmosphere over ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The Indonesian throughflow, its variability and centennial change

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2018
The Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) is an important component of the upper cell of the global overturning circulation that provides a low-latitude pathway for warm, fresh waters from the Pacific to enter the Indian Ocean.

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

A CGCM Study on the Northward Propagation of Tropical Intraseasonal Oscillation over the Asian Summer Monsoon Regions

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010
This study performs numerical experiments to (1) examine the influences of Pacific and Indian Ocean couplings on the propagation of tropical intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) in the extended boreal summer (May-through-October) and (2) determine the ...
