Climate envelope analyses suggests significant rearrangements in the distribution ranges of Central European tree species

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science, 2022
Key message Climate envelope analysis of nine tree species shows that Fagus sylvatica L. and Picea abies H. Karst could lose 58% and 40% of their current distribution range. Quercus pubescens Willd and Quercus cerris L.

Wood supply challenges in Alberta – Growing more timber is the only sustainable solution

open access: yesThe Forestry Chronicle, 2021
The industrial wood supply from public lands is at risk in Alberta from natural disturbances and landbase withdrawals while simultaneously being asked to provide for an increasing timber harvest rate. While maintaining the timber landbase is critical, we

Wheat and faba bean intercropping and cultivar impacts on morphology, disease, and yield

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 6, Page 3010-3024, November/December 2023., 2023
Abstract Modern agriculture relies heavily on synthetic fertilizer and pesticide inputs. Pressure is increasing to find alternatives that reduce such inputs. In comparison to monocultures, intercropping can reduce plant diseases and increase yield, thereby reducing inputs and maximizing land use efficiency.

Optimizing species selection for the structural timbers of traditional farmhouses in a snowy rural area of northeastern Japan

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 795-808, November 2023., 2023
This study examined the species of local woods used in 11 farmhouses constructed between 1845 and 1940 in Tadami, a snowy area in northeastern Japan, and interviewed residents about their use of forest resources. The study found that cedar and white pine were the most commonly used species for essential structural parts, and beech was used for roof ...

White spruce enrichment planting in boreal mixedwoods as influenced by localized site preparation: 11-year update

open access: yesThe Forestry Chronicle, 2020
Ecosystem-based management aims to maintain the natural proportion of native species over a given landscape. White spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) is a species sensitive to environmental conditions; it is especially demanding in terms of nutrients ...

Evaluating collaborative scenarios for short food supply chains: a case study on high‐level processing technology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Science &Technology, Volume 58, Issue 10, Page 5591-5601, October 2023., 2023
Research process and key insights of the study. Summary This study examined three collaborative scenarios for the implementation of a high‐level aseptic filling machine in small‐scale food processing for improved food safety in short food supply chains. A two‐stage research design was implemented, based on an exploration and evaluation phase.

Nanohaloarchaea as beneficiaries of xylan degradation by haloarchaea

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 1803-1822, September 2023., 2023
Using samples of natural evaporitic brines and anthropogenic solar salterns, we describe genome‐inferred trophic relations in two extremely halophilic xylan‐degrading three‐member consortia. We succeeded in genome assembly and closure for all members of both xylan‐degrading cultures and elucidated the respective food chains within these consortia.

Increased importance of cool‐water fish at high latitudes emerges from individual‐level responses to warming

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
We studied 11 cool‐water adapted freshwater fish populations in communities dominated by cold‐water adapted species to investigate changes in the relative importance of cool‐water fish during the last 30 years of rapid warming in high latitude lakes.

Resources for plant‐based food: Estimating resource use to meet the requirements of urban and peri‐urban diets

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2023., 2023
A method to estimate resource use by crop systems to meet food needs is proposed. PLATE is a proxy of the per capita intake of energy‐ and nutrient‐rich vegetables. Water, energy, and area use of two urban systems (open field and plant factories with artificial lighting) are compared. The method can support decisions at farm level and in urban‐regional
