Highly efficient single-step pretreatment to remove lignin and hemicellulose from softwood
The use of lignocellulosic softwood residues as feedstock for the production of bioethanol and other value-added chemical products has been limited by its high recalcitrance.

Management of cover crops and soil amendments affect yield outcomes during organic transition
Abstract This study sought to assess the impact of cover cropping and high rates of soil amendments on crop yield during organic transition. Compost, biochar, or a “50/50” mixture of the two on a C‐equivalent basis were applied at a rate of 8 Mg C ha−1 per varying application regimens, with and without cover crops, at two locations on the North ...

Canada-US Softwood Lumber Trade Revisited: Examining the Role of Substitution Bias in the Context of a Spatial Price Equilibrium Framework [PDF]
In the last two decades, softwood lumber trade between Canada and the United States has been characterized by numerous trade restrictions. Many studies have attempted to quantify the effects of such sanctions, and in doing so, softwood lumber was modeled
