Quantifying the effects of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) on deep organic C stocks using natural abundance 14C in three marginal soils

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, 2020
Perennial bioenergy crops have been shown to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, potentially offsetting anthropogenic C emissions. The effects of perennial bioenergy crops on SOC are typically assessed at shallow depths (30 cm) SOC stocks would be

Canopy Leaching Rather than Desorption of PM2.5 From Leaves Is the Dominant Source of Throughfall Dissolved Organic Carbon in Forest

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in throughfall plays a vital role in providing carbon and energy to organisms in forests. We utilized carbon isotope analysis to allocate the sources of throughfall DOC, including leaching from plant tissues, PM2.5 ...

Detection of radiocarbon in the cyclotrino [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 1990
Abstract A small low-energy cyclotron (the “cyclotrino”), which was proposed for direct detection of radiocarbon in 1981, has now detected radiocarbon at natural abundance. This device combines the suppression of background through the use of negative ions with the high intrinsic mass resolution of a cyclotron.

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Spring buds of European woody plants have old 14C age

open access: yesHeliyon
Trees and shrubs maintain carbon reserves to support their functions during periods when metabolic demand exceeds carbon supply, such as during the dormant season.

Formal Tests for Resistance-Resilience in Archaeological Time Series

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The study of resilience is a common pathway for scientific data to inform policy and practice towards impending climate change. Consequently, understanding the mechanisms and features that contribute towards building resilience is a key goal of much ...

The Problems of Radiocarbon Dating [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2005
In their Perspective “The boon and Bane of radiocarbon dating” (21 Jan., p. [362][1]), T. P. Guilderson et al. raise some important issues in radiocarbon (14C) dating. They discuss the problems of calibrating 14C dates that fall within “age plateaus” of the 14C calibration curve and ...

Cortical bone distribution in the human mandibular symphysis: Ontogenic and morphometric approaches in archeological context

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The human mandibular symphysis concentrates multiaxial loads during function and remodels throughout growth, but the precise mechanisms underlying cortical bone shape during growth remain relatively unexplored. Approaches based solely on thickness or external cortical contours provide only partial insights and do not capture the functional ...
