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 ...
Amsterdam2024The Reef Environment Centralized InFormation System (RECIFS) : An integrated geo‐environmental database for coral reef research and conservation
Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni
Motivation: Host to intricate networks of marine species, coral reefs are among the most biologically diverse ecosystems on Earth. Over the past few decades, major degradations of coral reefs have been observed worldwide, which is largely attributed to the ...
2023Warming may extend tree growing seasons and compensate for reduced carbon uptake during dry periods
Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen, Yann Vitasse, Eugénie Isabelle Mas, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency
- Warming and drought alter plant phenology, photosynthesis and growth with important consequences for the global carbon cycle and the earth’s climate. Yet, few studies have attempted to tease apart their effects on tree phenology, particularly leaf senes ...
Inhibited vertical mixing and seasonal persistence of a thin cyanobacterial layer in a stratified lake
Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Bieito Fernandez Castro
Harmful blooms of the filamentous cyanobacteria Planktothrix rubescens have become common in many lakes as they have recovered from eutrophication over the last decades. These cyanobacteria, capable of regulating their vertical position, often flourish at ...
2021Reactivity of Bioinspired Magnesium-Organic Networks under CO2 and O-2 Exposure
Klaus Kern, Magalí Alejandra Lingenfelder, Fernando Pablo Cometto, Bart Willem Stel, Daniel Eduardo Hurtado Salinas
Photosynthesis is the model system for energy conversion. It uses CO2 as a starting reactant to convert solar energy into chemical energy, i.e., organic molecules or biomass. The first and rate-determining step of this cycle is the immobilization and activ ...
2019Effects of non-uniform vertical constituent profiles on remote sensing reflectance of oligo- to mesotrophic lakes
Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Vincent Maurice Nouchi
We investigate the impact on remote sensing reflectance by the vertical non-uniformities of water constituents. Reflectance simulated for 210 pairs of in situ measured chlorophyll-a and turbidity profiles (z = 0–20 m) from Lake Geneva are compared to simul ...
2018Structure of a PSI-LHCI-cyt b(6)f supercomplex in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii promoting cyclic electron flow under anaerobic conditions
Photosynthetic linear electron flow (LEF) produces ATP and NADPH, while cyclic electron flow (CEF) exclusively drives photophosphorylation to supply extra ATP. The fine-tuning of linear and cyclic electron transport levels allows photosynthetic organisms t ...
