Wpływ zróżnicowanego nawożenia azotem i symulowanego kwaśnego opadu na aktywność enzymatyczną badanych gleb

Agronomy Science, 2004
Acidification of soils is an important process degrading the natural environment. It undergoes various natural processes as well as human activities. Therefore, the objective of the study was to evaluate effects of differentiated nitrogen fertilization ...

Antimicrobial Residues in a Key Cerrado River: Distribution, Persistence, and Effects on Zebrafish Embryo‐Larval Development

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current study aimed to quantify the antimicrobials amoxicillin (AMX), cefazolin (CFZ), chloramphenicol (CHL), metronidazole (MTZ), and sulfamethoxazole (SX) in effluents and surface water of an important Cerrado river, calculate their half‐lives, and analyze their ecotoxicity following single and combined exposures.

Enhancing Hydrophobic Stability of Silicone Rubber Insulators Under High‐Voltage Direct Current Stress Through Optimised Nano‐Fumed Silica Surface Area: A Dynamic Drop Test Study

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The long‐term hydrophobic stability of silicone rubber (SiR) insulators is essential for their reliability in high‐voltage direct current (HVDC) applications. This study investigates the effect of nano‐silica fillers with varying specific surface areas (SSA = 120, 200 and 300 m2/g) and different concentrations of alumina trihydrate (ATH ...

High nitrogen loading impacts the temperature‐size rule and heat tolerance in a nettle‐feeding butterfly

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host‐plant quality and ambient temperature are key environmental drivers of herbivorous insect performance, affecting growth, development, and survival. While temperature accelerates physiological processes in ectothermic insects, nutrient limitation in host plants can ...

Soil drying induces widespread productivity loss but unequal climate vulnerability among ecotypes of a foundational Arctic sedge

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract As temperatures increase in the Arctic, hydrological change may lead to local soil drying through altered snowpack, evapotranspiration and drainage due to permafrost thaw.

Effects of Simulated Acid Rain on Physiological Parameters of Field-Grown Corn and Soybeans

, 1987
Simulated acid rain has been reported to cause physiological changes in various plant species. Studies were conducted in 1983, 1984, and 1985 to determine the effect of acid rain on some physiological parameters in soybeans (Glycine max L.) and corn (Zea

Long-term suppression of wetland methane flux following a pulse of simulated acid rain

, 2005
Wetlands are a potent source of the radiatively important gas methane (CH4). Recent findings have demonstrated that sulfate (SO4 2−) deposition via acid rain suppresses CH4 emissions by stimulating competitive exclusion of methanogens by sulfate-reducing

Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...
