Gap distributions in forests reflect the spatial impact of man-made tree harvesting or naturally-induced patterns of tree death being caused by windthrow, inter-tree competition, disease or senescence.Gap sizes can vary from large (>100 m2) to small (<10 m2), and they may have contrasting spatial patterns, such as being aggregated or regularl
ABSTRACT The search for alternatives to increase productivity and sustainability of livestock production in the Amazon region without increasing deforestation is challenging.Mixed pastures of grasses with forage peanut (Arachis pintoi) have shown positive economic impacts.However, gaps in the knowledge of the reproductive biology of A.pintoi have l
3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) is a growing field of sustainable technology that offers an avenue for rapid industrialisation of the construction industry.Over the years, many non-structural elements have been fabricated by 3D printing, thus demonstrating significant advantages over traditional casting process, including freedom from the need of mold,
Delivering bioactive proteins into cells without carriers presents significant challenges in biomedical applications due to limited cell membrane LECITHIN GRANULES permeability and the need for targeted delivery.Here, we introduce a novel copyright-free method that addresses these challenges by chemically modifying proteins with an acid-responsive
Atmospheric aerosols are one of the main factors that contribute to poor air quality.These aerosols are mostly concentrated within the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) and CRANBERRY mixing layer (ML).The ABL extends from ground level to the lowest level of the troposphere directly affected by surface temperature, solar irradiance, the orography and
