Biochar conductivity enhances methane generation in paddy soil by facilitating electron transfer mediated by dissolved organic matter

Biochar
Biochar can regulate methane (CH4) emissions from paddy soils. However, the mechanism through which biochar conductivity influences methanogenesis in paddy soils remains unclear.

Storing carbon in soil. Can we slow a revolving door? [PDF]

, 2012
There is no doubt that soils are a vast store of carbon and partially control the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere. Maintaining soil organic matter is also crucial for production and environmental protection.

Mycorrhizas and biomass crops: opportunities for future sustainable development [PDF]

, 2009
Central to soil health and plant productivity in natural ecosystems are in situ soil microbial communities, of which mycorrhizal fungi are an integral component, regulating nutrient transfer between plants and the surrounding soil via extensive mycelial ...

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Impact of dry-wet cycles on carbon mineralization of tropical soils. [P43] [PDF]

, 2015
In the context of climate change, the increase of dry-wet cycles could cause large losses of soil carbon stock. Located in the Sudano-Sahelian region, soils of North Cameroon experience dry periods followed by erratic rains at the beginning of the ...
