The Removal of Atrazine and Benalaxyl by the Fly Ash Released from Kosovo A Power Plant. [PDF]
The development of low‐cost adsorbent coal FA (Kosovo A) for pesticide removal is an important area of scientific research. With this study, we show the potential of adsorption of coal FA (Kosovo A) for the removal of benalaxyl and atrazine from water. We have found that the amount of adsorbed benalaxyl and atrazine increases with an increasing amount ...

Trait-independent habitat associations explain low co-occurrence in native and exotic birds on a tropical volcanic island. [PDF]
We investigated bird assemblages in La Réunion island, Mascarenes. We showed how habitat separates native and introduced exotic bird species independently from their ecological traits. This study stands as a landmark for species‐habitat relationships prior to the establishment of a major protected area intended to the conservation of endemic ecosystems.

Gene Flow and Abundance of a Tropical Fruit Fly in a Horticultural Landscape Mosaic in Eastern Australia Is Limited by Cleared Grazing Land and Area-Wide Management. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Landscape ecology and genetics provide important analytical frameworks for investigating the effect of environmental features on ecological processes. Few empirical studies, however, have simultaneously tested how landscape characteristics influence spatial patterns of gene flow and abundance of pest insects in heterogeneous environments.

Scale-Up of Tailor-Made Onsite Enzyme Blend From Cassava Peels for Industrial Bioethanol Production. [PDF]
Bioethanol production is one of the key alternatives for fossil fuel use due to climate change. The study seeks to upscale tailor‐made onsite enzyme blends for the bioconversion of cassava peels to bioethanol in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process using cassava peels‐degrading fungi.

Abstract Herbicide carryover injury to rotational crops can vary in severity depending on the influence of soil properties on herbicide bioavailability. Greenhouse bioassays were conducted with soybean, radish, and canola to evaluate differences in the bioavailability of three herbicides with carryover risk, atrazine, mesosulfuron‐methyl, and ...

Sugars are becoming an attractive raw material for the production of biochemicals, including bio‐based monoethylene glycol. Using regionalized life cycle assessment and following a consequential modeling framework we showed that from the environmental perspective, the most sustainable sources of sugar are sugar cane and sugar beet.
