Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are stable crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Robotics‐assisted acoustic surveys could deliver reliable, landscape‐level biodiversity insights

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Deploying and maintaining sensors is often a major bottleneck in collecting rapid biodiversity data. We tested whether autonomous hopping drones equipped with acoustic recorders could collect reliable biodiversity data in Costa Rica. Using 26,000+ hours of existing audio from 341 sites, with machine learning detections of 19 bird species and spider ...

Effects of Pyrolysis Control Parameters on the Structural Properties of Biomass‐Derived Activated Carbon Materials and Their Energy Applications

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Tubular pyrolysis synthesis is a widespread method to produce activated carbons (ACs). This review focuses on the different controlling parameters of the tubular pyrolysis synthesis method and their influence on the performance of synthesized ACs, thereby considering both experimental aspects and the use of plant‐based biomasses (PBBs) as feedstock ...
