Question: What is the effect of gap size on the seedling emergence, growth and survival of four common tree species in wooded pastures? Location: A pasture in the Jura mountains, Switzerland. Methods: Seeds were sown in a complete three-way factorial desig ...
We studied the vegetation, testate amoebae and abiotic variables (depth of the water table, pH, electrical conductivity, Ca and Mg concentrations of water extracted from mosses) along the bog to extremely rich fen gradient in sub-alpine peatlands of the Up ...
As anthropogenic N deposition has been suspected to be the main reason for the decline of macromycetous sporocarp production in forest ecosystems, various N-fertilization experiments were started in the mid 1990s. The dynamics of ectomycorrhizal (root-inha ...
Gällivare is a remote city in the middle of the northern Swedish wilderness. The city was established as iron ore was found in the ground just over a century ago. Until the 60's the mining industry and the city grew together in what seemed to be a perfect ...
The genus Eudicella White comprises horned cetoniines widespread in the sub-Saharan Africa. Two subgenera, Eudicella (Eudicella) White and Eudicella (Cyprolais) Thomson, compose the genus. Here, the remarkably uniform subgenus Eudicella (Eudicella) is revi ...
Cardiac diseases represent the major cause of mortality in the Western world. The discovery of the promising human Cardiac Adherent Proliferating (CAP) cells for a potential cardiac cell therapy by the Tissue Engineering group induced the need of a reliabl ...
Three new bimetallic framework compounds, namely, (([Cd3(tn)4][Co(CN)6]2)·5H2O)∞ (1), ([Cd(tn)]3[Cr(CN)6]2)∞ (2), and ([Cu2(tn)2][Ru(CN)6]·4H2O)∞ (3), have been prepared in a very simple manner from the ligand 1,3-diaminopropane (tn), the hexacyanometalate ...
Saproxylic (dead-wood-associated) and old-growth species are among the most threatened species in European forest ecosystems, as they are susceptible to intensive forest management. Identifying areas with particular relevant features of biodiversity is of ...
During the last decades public awareness of the limitations of traditional engineering practices and the imperative to conserve nature have led to changes in river management; including river restoration measures. The enlargement of the fluvial corridor is ...
Sample prepn. and ligand complex prepn. of Hb I from Lucina pectinata were performed to obtain ultrafast data on ferric HbI-NO, HbI-N3, HbI-H2S and metHbI complexes that suggest a mechanism for the photoinduced redn. of HbI species. Formation of a transien ...
