Ecosystem size reverses the effect of the spatial coupling between autotrophic and heterotrophic ecosystems

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The flow of non‐living resources between autotrophic and heterotrophic ecosystems can impact their ecosystem function. However, ecosystem size is similarly known to influence ecological properties and it is uncertain how the size of coupled ecosystems mediates the effect of resource flows.

Seaweed extract by microwave assisted extraction as plant growth biostimulant

open access: yesOpen Chemistry, 2015
Abstract Microwave Assisted Extraction (MAE) was used to obtain aqueous extracts of Baltic seaweeds. Three different temperatures: 25, 40, 60°C were examined. Algal extracts were characterized in terms of polyphenols, micro- and macroelements, lipids content and antibacterial properties.

Hurdles to overcome to achieve biostimulant‐driven, low chemical input crop production

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Crop production requires considerable chemical inputs that result in significant greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental costs. Biostimulants are natural agents, such as microorganisms or seaweed, applied to plants and soil to stimulate plant growth and reduce chemical inputs. Biostimulant use is rapidly increasing globally, but hurdles remain,
