Dairy calves' preference for rearing substrate [PDF]

, 2014
Rearing substrate is an important component of the pre-weaning environment of dairy calves. Traditional substrate types, such as sawdust, are becoming difficult and/or expensive for farmers to obtain in New Zealand. Therefore, there is a need to evaluate

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Regulating Defect‐Coordinated Single‐Iron‐Atom Catalysts for Efficient Nitrate Reduction Reactions

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates the ball‐and‐stick model of an asymmetric monatomic Fe─N2 catalyst and its catalytic process for converting nitrate to ammonia. Shown are the adsorption configurations of precursors and intermediates (NO3− → NO2− → NO → NH2OH → NH3) on the catalyst surface, where brown represents iron atoms, red represents oxygen atoms, dark ...

Sustainable Hydrogen Production by Glycerol and Monosaccharides Catalytic Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) in Homogeneous Phase

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...
