Anion Exchange Membrane Seawater Electrolysis at 1.0 A cm−2 With an Anode Catalyst Stable for 9000 H

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The CAPist‐S1 catalyst containing dense interlayer structure is synthesized by one‐step autologous method. The dense NiFe LDH interlayer inhibits the Cl− ions penetration onto metal substrate, significantly improving the corrosion resistance. The obtained catalyst requires an overpotential of 220 mV at 1.0 A cm−2 and exhibits excellent durability over ...

Functional traits mediate individualistic species‐environment distributions at broad spatial scales while fine‐scale species associations remain unpredictable

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 109, Issue 12, Page 1991-2005, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Premise Numerous processes influence plant distributions and co‐occurrence patterns, including ecological sorting, limiting similarity, and stochastic effects. To discriminate among these processes and determine the spatial scales at which they operate, we investigated how functional traits and phylogenetic relatedness influence the ...

Can the photosynthesis first step quantum mechanism be explained? [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
Photosynthesis first step mechanism concerns the sunlight absorption and both negative and positive charges separation. Recent and important photosynthesis literature claims that this mechanism is quantum mechanics controlled, however without presenting qualitative or quantitative scientifically based mechanism.

Incident light orientation lets C4 monocotyledonous leaves make light work differently [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Photosynthesis is an important driver of ecosystem sustainability in the face of climate change. Monocotyledonous crop species with C4 photosynthesis such as maize (Zea mays L; corn) and sugar cane are crucial for future food security and biofuel crop ...

Disentangling the role of photosynthesis and stomatal conductance on rising forest water-use efficiency

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Forests remove about 30% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions through photosynthesis and return almost 40% of incident precipitation back to the atmosphere via transpiration.

Wood Biomolecules as Agricultural Adjuvants for Effective Suppression of Droplet Rebound from Plant Foliage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lignin and hemicellulose are used to develop agricultural adjuvants to decrease agrochemical run‐off from foliage, by suppressing droplet rebound and enhancing adhesion of aqueous solutions on plant leaves. The wood components combine surface activity with surface pinning effects and to improve by tenfold the droplet rebound in citrus leaves ...

Exploring non-adiabaticity to CO reduction reaction through ab initio molecular dynamics simulation

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2020
Non-adiabatic chemical reaction refers to the electronic excitation during reactions. This effect cannot be modeled by the ground-state Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BO-MD), where the electronic structure is at the ground state for every step of ...

On the habitability of exoplanets orbiting Proxima Centauri [PDF]

open access: yesRev. Cub. Fis. 30, 77 (2013), 2014
We apply a mathematical model for photosynthesis to quantitatively assess the habitability of a hypothetical planet orbiting Proxima Centauri, inside the so called habitability zone. Results suggest significant viability for primary biological productivity, provided living organisms have evolved to reach the ability of using infrared light for ...

Nanoparticle Delivery of Antisense miR162 Inhibits Invasive Habitat Adaption of Alternanthera Philoxeroides

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the miRNA pathway plays a key role in the invasive growth of Alternanthera philoxeroides in aquatic habitats. Specifically, miR162 is critical for its invasive success, facilitating stem elongation and enhancing survival during submergence.
