(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
Optimization of anaerobic co-digestion of fruits and vegetable waste (FVW) with cow manure (CD) and poultry manure (PM) was studied by conducting biochemical methane potential (BMP) tests at different mixing ratios using ...
Cilia proteins are biomarkers of altered flow in the vasculature
(
American Society for Clinical Investigation

Herbal plants- and rice straw-derived biochars reduced metal mobilization in fishpond sediments and improved their potential as fertilizers
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Fishpond sediments are rich in organic carbon and nutrients; thus, they can be used as potential fertilizers and soil conditioners. However, sediments can be contaminated with toxic elements (TEs), which have to be immobilized ...
Winters are changing: snow effects on Arctic and alpine tundra ecosystems
(
Canadian Science Publishing
, 2022 , Article)
Snow is an important driver of ecosystem processes in cold biomes. Snow accumulation determines ground temperature, light conditions and moisture availability during winter. It also affects the growing season’s start and ...
Global maps of soil temperature
(
Wiley
, 2022 , Article)
Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation ...
Socio-ecological vulnerability and resilience of mountain communities residing in capital-constrained environments
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
The study evaluated perceived reactions and counter-actions of Himalayan communities to climate change. The evaluation was conducted through identification and characterization of 62 socio-environment-specific indicators ...
