A study of the importance of secondary reactions in char formation and pyrolysis : a dissertation presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Process Engineering at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Anthropogenic climate change, caused primarily by excessive emissions of carbon dioxide, has led to a renewed interest in char, the solid product of pyrolysis. When applied to soil as biochar it can both sequester carbon and improve soil function.

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Energy Consumption in Industrial Drying of Radiata Pine

open access: yesDrying Technology, 2012
This article reports the results of an exploratory study designed to reduce heat and electricity consumption in industrial drying of radiata pine. The experiments were performed with slight modifications of the standard drying schedules used by the sawmill to dry radiata pine in 100-m3 industrial kilns.

Are Tetrapleura tetraptera Phytochemicals Druggable Against SARS‐CoV‐2 Papain‐Like Protein? A Computational Approach

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
SARS‐CoV2 Omicron and its substrains are still a critical global health issue and extremely contagious, even with widespread vaccination efforts. Hospitalizations and mortality rates linked to these variants are still prevalent. Current therapeutic options face challenges, including low effectiveness, suboptimal pharmacokinetics, and drug resistance ...

Response of Early Life‐Stages of Forest‐Forming Seaweeds From Warm‐Edge and Central Populations to Marine Heatwaves

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) pose a threat to global marine forests, with the effects of warming potentially being even greater on early life stages, which are often understudied. We evaluated the responses of Phyllospora comosa—one of the most crucial forest‐forming seaweeds in South‐eastern Australia—early life stages from warm‐edge and central ...

Rhizosphere Ph and Phosphatase Activity in Orthic Allophanic Soil Under Pinus Radiata Seedlings Grown with Broom and Ryegrass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Under Pinus radiata plantations where the tree spacing is wider and most soils are phosphorus (P) deficient, the radiata tree response to P fertilizer is expected to be more influenced by the interaction between the applied P fertilizer, the
