Temporal dynamics in functional fruit traits of native and invasive fleshy fruited plants in subtropical Andean forests

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruits encompass the energetic and material flow between both interacting parties in frugivore‐mediated seed dispersal. Since fruit traits matter in frugivores' foraging decisions, the temporal dynamics of fruit traits might influence interaction outcomes.

Chlorophyll fluorescence varies more across seasons than leaf water potential in drought-prone plants

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2016
Among the effects of environmental change, the intensification of drought events is noteworthy, and tropical vegetation is predicted to be highly vulnerable to it.

Functional traits predict changes in floral phenology under climate change in a highly diverse Mediterranean community

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants are shifting their flowering phenology in response to climate change, but trends differ between species and communities. Functional traits can largely explain how different species respond to climate change by shifting their phenology, and can therefore help ...

Reduced-Order Model for Catalytic Cracking of Bio-Oil

Fluids
This work presents a one-dimensional (1D) model for simulating the behavior of an FCC riser reactor processing bio-oil. The FCC riser is modeled as a plug-flow reactor, where the bio-oil feed undergoes vaporization followed by catalytic cracking ...

Cerebrovascular Function in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Pilot Multi‐Parameter Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease, but the effects on cerebrovascular function are unknown. In this pilot study, we sought to compare cerebrovascular perfusion, pulsatility, reactivity and metabolism between women with PCOS and healthy volunteers using MRI, and ...
