Tree Surface Temperature in a Primary Tropical Rain Forest

Atmosphere, 2020
As one of the important factors affecting plant productivity and plant distribution, temperature also affects the physiological and ecological characteristics of plants to a large extent.

Adaptation and growth response of Samanea saman (Jacq.) Merr seedlings to iron exposure

Forest Science and Technology
One adaptive responses of plants to heavy metal exposure, including iron (Fe), is the exudation of organic acids. This study aims to determine the adaptation and mechanism of Samanea saman seedlings when exposed to Fe.

Complementary resource use by tree species in a rain forest tree plantation [PDF]

Ecological Applications, 2010
Mixed‐species tree plantations, composed of high‐value native rain forest timbers, are potential forestry systems for the subtropics and tropics that can provide ecological and production benefits. Choices of rain forest tree species for mixtures are generally based on the concept that assemblages of fast‐growing and light‐demanding species are less ...

Seed rain generated by bats under Cerrado’s pasture remnant trees in a Neotropical savanna

Brazilian Journal of Biology
In this study we described the seed rain generated by bats under four Cerrado’s tree species common within pastures, Buchenavia tomentosa, Couepia grandiflora, Licania humilis and Qualea grandiflora. We analyzed the similarity among the four tree species

Fagaceae tree species allocate higher fraction of nitrogen to photosynthetic apparatus than Leguminosae in Jianfengling tropical montane rain forest, China.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Variation in photosynthetic-nitrogen use efficiency (PNUE) is generally affected by several factors such as leaf nitrogen allocation and leaf diffusional conductances to CO2, although it is still unclear which factors significantly affect PNUE in ...

Tree Circumference Dynamics in Four Forests Characterized Using Automated Dendrometer Bands. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Stem diameter is one of the most commonly measured attributes of trees, forming the foundation of forest censuses and monitoring. Changes in tree stem circumference include both irreversible woody stem growth and reversible circumference changes related ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

The Effectiveness of Canopi to Reduce Rainfall Acidity in the Industrial Area at Medan

Forum Geografi, 2016
The term of acid rain is referred to the mean rainfall with a pH less than 5.65. The element of SOx and NOx are the major sources of acid rain. These two elements are oxidized into S04 and N03 respectively in the air.
