Invasive palms have more efficient and prolonged CO2 assimilation compared to native sub-Mediterranean vegetation
Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen, Thibaut Michel Georges Juillard, Janisse Deluigi, Marco Conedera
In sub-Mediterranean ecosystems, shade-tolerant broadleaf evergreens, especially the invasive Trachycarpus fortunei, are spreading uncontrollably in the forest understorey, impeding the regeneration of the native deciduous woody vegetation. Most invasive s ...
Amsterdam2024Impact of intercepted and sub-canopy snow microstructure on snowpack response to rain-on-snow events under a boreal canopy
Michael Lehning, Adrien Michel, Nander Wever, Daniel Nadeau, Benjamin Bouchard
Rain-on-snow events can cause severe flooding in snow-dominated regions. These are expected to become more frequent in the future as climate change shifts the precipitation from snowfall to rainfall. However, little is known about how winter rainfall inter ...
2024Canopy dieback and recovery in Australian native forests following extreme drought
Alice Jacqueline Frédérique Gauthey
In 2019, south-eastern Australia experienced its driest and hottest year on record, resulting in massive canopy dieback events in eucalypt dominated forests. A subsequent period of high precipitation in 2020 provided a rare opportunity to quantify the impa ...
NATURE PORTFOLIO2022SoilKsatDB: global database of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity measurements for geoscience applications
The saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is a key parameter in many hydrological and climate models. Ksat values are primarily determined from basic soil properties and may vary over several orders of magnitude. Despite the availability of Ksat dat ...
2021EVA for Glass/Glass Solar PV Modules: Effect of encasulant storage conditions and process parameters
Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Luca Gnocchi
This work investigates t the effectiveness of glass-glass solar PV module structures used in combination with a EVA as an encapsulant material. The use of EVA in glass-glass structures is in principle discouraged, as a bioproduct of its photo-degradation i ...
IEEE2021Adaptation of Human Enterovirus to Warm Environments Leads to Resistance against Chlorine Disinfection
Tamar Kohn, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Virginie Bachmann, Timothy R. Julian
Sunlight, temperature, and microbial grazing are among the environmental factors promoting the inactivation of viral pathogens in surface waters. Globally, these factors vary across time and space. The persistence of viral pathogens, and ultimately their e ...
2020Multitemporal Relationships Between the Hydroclimate and Exports of Carbon, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus in a Small Agricultural Watershed
Agriculture affects the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, leading to a deterioration of surface water quality. The increasing magnitude of climate change raises questions about potential additional or mitigating effects of climate ...
