Investigation and Application of Bacillus licheniformis Volatile Compounds for the Biological Control of Toxigenic Aspergillus and Penicillium spp
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
The present study was designed to investigate the antagonistic activity of Bacillus licheniformis BL350-2 against mycotoxigenic strains of Aspergillus and Penicillium. In vitro coincubation for 5 days indicated Aspergillus ...
Bryophyte cover and richness decline after 18 years of experimental warming in alpine Sweden.
(
Oxford University Press
, 2020 , Article)
Climate change is expected to affect alpine and Arctic tundra communities. Most previous long-term studies have focused on impacts on vascular plants, this study examined impacts of long-term warming on bryophyte communities. ...
Impact of SARS-CoV-2 on Ambient Air Quality in Northwest China (NWC)
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
SARS-CoV-2 was discovered in Wuhan (Hubei) in late 2019 and covered the globe by March 2020. To prevent the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, China imposed a countrywide lockdown that significantly improved the air quality. ...
Global change effects on plant communities are magnified by time and the number of global change factors imposed
(
National Academy of Sciences
, 2019 , Article)
Global change drivers (GCDs) are expected to alter community structure and consequently, the services that ecosystems provide. Yet, few experimental investigations have examined effects of GCDs on plant community structure ...
Pollution Characteristics of Particulate Matter (PM2.5 and PM10) and Constituent Carbonaceous Aerosols in a South Asian Future Megacity
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
The future megacity of Faisalabad is of prime interest when considering environmental
health because of its bulky population and abundant industrial and anthropogenic sources of coarse particles (PM10) and fine airborne ...
Temporal variations in ambient air quality indicators in Shanghai municipality, China
(
Nature Research
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020, The Author(s). Official data on daily PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NO2, CO, and maximum 8-h average O3 (O3_8h) concentrations from January 2015 to December 2018 were evaluated and air pollution status and dynamics in Shanghai ...
Do changes in current flow as a result of arrays of tidal turbines have an effect on benthic communities?
(
Public Library of Science
, 2016 , Article)
Arrays of tidal energy converters have the potential to provide clean renewable energy for future generations. Benthic communities may, however, be affected by changes in current speeds resulting from arrays of tidal ...
Systematic laboratory approach to produce Mg-rich carbonates at low temperature
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2021 , Article)
Dolomite is a common Mg-rich carbonate in the geological record, but the mechanism of its formation remains unclear. At low temperature, the incorporation of magnesium ions into the carbonate minerals necessary to form ...
Understanding the role of atmospheric circulations and dispersion of air pollution associated with extreme smog events over South Asian megacity
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
The winter fog/haze events in northeastern Pakistan and surrounding regions of India are often mixed with pollutants to form smog, and consequently damage human health and hampers daily life in the form of fatalities through ...
Reflectance spectroscopy and ASTER mapping of aeolian dunes of Shaqra and Tharmada Provinces, Saudi Arabia: Field validation and laboratory confirmation
(
Taylor and Francis Group
, 2022 , Article)
Spatial variability of grain sizes and mapping of aeolian dunes is important to study the sand erosion, transport, and dune movement and to understand the dune encroachment and land degradation. This study examines the ...
