Evaluation of the Dimensional Stability of Black Poplar Wood Modified Thermally in Nitrogen Atmosphere

open access: yesMaterials, 2021
Black poplar (Populus nigra L.) was thermally modified in nitrogen atmosphere. The effects of the modification process on poplar wood were evaluated for temperatures: 160 °C, 190 °C, and 220 °C applied for 2 h; and 160 °C and 190 °C for 6 h.

Transgenic Poplar Designed for Biofuels.

open access: yesTrends in Plant Science, 2020
Members of the genus Populus (i.e., cottonwood, hybrid poplar) represent a promising source of lignocellulosic biomass for biofuels. However, one of the major factors negatively affecting poplar's efficient conversion to biofuel is the inherent ...

High‐Adhesion Quadruple Hydrogen‐Bonded Ionogels: A Dual‐Function Platform for Gesture Recognition and Real‐Time NH3 Detection in Multiscenario

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Quadruple hydrogen‐bonded high‐adhesion ionogels for gesture recognition and real‐time NH3 sensing. Ionogels have garnered significant attention in flexible sensing due to their outstanding mechanical properties, conductivity, and stability. However, establishing a robust and stable adhesive interface with various substrates remains a significant ...

Machine‐Learning‐Enabled Wood with Nanopump Functionalization for Solar Interfacial Evaporation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study employed machine learning to design an iron‐cobalt‐carbon‐wood photothermal material, achieving high‐efficiency evaporation at 2.807 kg m−2 h−1 and excellent salt resistance. The integrated system increased the daily water production efficiency of solar distillation by 1.5 times, providing an innovative solution for sustainable seawater ...

Effect of Sanding Processes on the Surface Properties of Modified Poplar Coated by Primer Compared with Mahogany

open access: yesCoatings, 2020
The surface roughness, static and dynamic liquid wettability of modified poplar wood were measured by different surface treatment of brushing primer and sanding. With the increase of the number of grinding paper, the depth parameters Ra, Ry, Rz and Rp of

Contrasted habitat selection among Eurasian curlew populations according to landscape heterogeneity and breeding stage

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
This study aimed to quantify the spatio‐temporal use of breeding environments by the Eurasian curlew in 5 contrasting agricultural landscapes. To this end, 64 individuals were tagged with GPS devices to assess their space use according to their breeding stages and define their foraging habitat selection.

MYB transcription factor PdMYB118 directly interacts with bHLH transcription factor PdTT8 to regulate wound-induced anthocyanin biosynthesis in poplar

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background R2R3-MYB transcription factors (TFs) play important roles in plant growth and development, and response to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, their regulatory mechanisms in wound-induced anthocyanin biosynthesis in woody plants are largely ...

Nutrition Status of Trees on Spoil Heaps After Coal Mining Can Be Inferred From Seasonal Dynamics of Foliar Nutrient Concentrations

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A stable vegetation cover on given habitat conditions can be one of the possible requirements for post‐mining sites, as it can prevent erosion and dustiness of these anthropogenic surfaces and bring several practical future benefits, such as biomass production and microclimate improvement.
