Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.

Microbial biomass in relation to primary succession on arctic deglaciated moraines [PDF]

, 1999
Microbial biomass in arctic soil was examined in relation to a primary succession on arctic deglaciated moraines in Ny-Alesund, Svalbard (79°N, 12°E). Soil samples at four study sites representing different successional stages were collected at every 1cm

Comparative field‐scale assessment of TLUD and Kon‐Tiki biochar systems: agronomic performance and net CO2e‐based techno‐economics

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐harvest agricultural residues in Latin America are commonly underutilized, leading to greenhouse gas emissions and lost opportunities for bio‐based value creation. This study tests the hypothesis that decentralized, farmer‐scale pyrolysis technologies can deliver comparable agronomic benefits while exhibiting distinct techno‐economic and ...

The stoichiometry of soil microbial biomass determines metabolic quotient of nitrogen mineralization

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Soil nitrogen (N) mineralization is crucial for the sustainability of available soil N and hence ecosystem productivity and functioning. Metabolic quotient of N mineralization ( Q _min ), which is defined as net soil N mineralization per unit of soil ...

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Contrasting spring-fall microclimate and summer nutrient controls drive seasonal soil microbial biomass responses to nitrogen addition and grazing in a temperate meadow steppe

Frontiers in Environmental Science
IntroductionUnderstanding the season-dependent effects of land-use change and global change drivers on soil microbial biomass is critical for accurately estimating grassland carbon (C) sequestration, sustaining ecosystem services, and enhancing landscape

A model of nitrous oxide evolution from soil driven by rainfall events: 1. Model structure and sensitivity [PDF]

, 1992
This paper describes a rain-event driven, process-oriented simulation model, DNDC, for the evolution of nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), and dinitrogen (N2) from agricultural soils.

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.
