Production of phytolith and PhytOC and distribution of extractable Si Pools in aerobic rice as influenced by different Si sources [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Phytoliths are composed of 66 to 91% SiO2 and 1 to 6% organic carbon (C) known as phytolith occluded carbon (PhytOC). PhytOC is critical for long-term C storage in the agroecosystem.

Particulate Backscattering in the Global Ocean: A Comparison of Independent Assessments. [PDF]
Geophys Res Lett, 2021 Abstract How well do we know the particulate backscattering coefficient (bbp) in the global ocean? Satellite lidar bbp has never been validated globally and few studies have compared lidar bbp to bbp derived from reflectances (via ocean color) or in situ observations.
