Modelling the Effect of Salt and PEG on Water Uptake in Wheat Seeds
Agronomy, 2021 Water uptake is a seminal process in seed germination. Salt and polyethylene glycol (PEG) are known to retard seed germination rates and percentages, which is often attributed to osmotic effects.

Recycling of Wood–Plastic Composites—A Reprocessing Study
Macromol, 2023 Wood–plastic composites, consisting of wood particles and a thermoplastic matrix, are common composites often used in buildings as decking boards or for similar non-load-carrying applications. As these are usually semi-finished products, a certain amount

The impact of vegetation on fractionation of rare earth elements(REE) during water–rock interaction [PDF]
, 2006 Previous studies on waters of a streamlet in the Vosges mountains (eastern France) have shown that Sr and rare earth elements (REE) principally originate from apatite dissolution during weathering. However, stream water REE patterns normalized to apatite

Ecosystem warming increases sap flow rates of northern red oak trees
Ecosphere, 2016 Over the next century, air temperature increases up to 5°C are projected for the northeastern United States. As evapotranspiration strongly influences water loss from terrestrial ecosystems, the ecophysiological response of trees to warming will have ...
