Extractives in some tropical woods
European Journal of Wood and Wood Products, 2010 Total amount and composition of extractives from 12 different tropical wood species were determined by sequential extraction followed by silylation and GC, GC/MS analysis. Hexane and then acetone/water (5:1) mixture was used successively for the extraction.

Time for a plant structural economics spectrum [PDF]
, 2019 We argue that tree and crown structural diversity can and should be integrated in the whole-plant economics spectrum. Ecologists have found that certain functional trait combinations have been more viable than others during evolution, generating a trait ...

Environmental legacy effects and acclimatization of a crustose coralline alga to ocean acidification
Climate Change Ecology, 2021 Prior exposure to variable environmental conditions is predicted to influence the resilience of marine organisms to global change. We conducted complementary 4-month field and laboratory experiments to understand how a dynamic, and sometimes extreme ...

Subterranean Termite Resistance of Polystyrene-Treated Wood from Three Tropical Wood Species [PDF]
Insects, 2016 The objective of this work was to investigate the resistance of three Indonesian wood species to termite attack. Samples from sengon (Falcataria moluccana), mangium (Acacia mangium), and pine (Pinus merkusii) were treated with polystyrene at loading levels of 26.0%, 8.6%, and 7.7%, respectively.
