Efficacy of Green and Chemically Synthesized Nano Boron Nitride on Sunflower Germination

Nano Select, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2025.
The TEM shows thin sheets of green‐synthesized nano boron nitride, while structural analysis through powder x‐ray diffraction confirmed a hexagonal configuration of the nanoparticles. The green‐synthesized particle was responsible for improving the germination percentage compared to the chemically synthesized nano particle. ABSTRACT This study explores

The root of the problem: Direct influence of riparian vegetation on estimation of stream ecosystem metabolic rates

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 9-17, February 2017., 2017
Abstract Abundant living roots can be found in some streams and other shallow marine and freshwater habitats. A reach of a small Brazilian forested stream had 28% cover by live roots and exhibited diurnal trends in dissolved oxygen that could be attributed to gross primary production, but we hypothesized that activity of riparian tree roots in the ...

UAV‐Based Land Surface Temperatures and Vegetation Indices Explain and Predict Spatial Patterns of Soil Water Isotopes in a Tropical Dry Forest

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 2, February 2025.
Graphical abstract illustrating the concept of isotopic enrichment of soil water depending on canopy status and plant type. Because of less shading provided, evaporative enrichment in areas without canopy cover is higher compared to areas with intermixed evergreen and leaf‐shedding trees and evergreen patches. E and T are Evaporation and Transpiration,
