To implement monitoring and assessment of national forest biomass, it is becoming the trend to develop generalized single-tree biomass models suitable for large scale forest biomass estimation.

The team created a model to describe the dynamics in each of the 1,500 samples as they metabolized the nitrate. They found that a simple model predicted the activity with just two parameters: ...

Turning materials like wood chips, crop residues and municipal solid waste into fuels and chemicals is important for our ...

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed new model calculations that, for the first time, estimate the global influence of lightning on forest ecosystems. According to ...

Created by researchers from the University of Nottingham and CSIRO Australia, the model could help power generators select biomass fuels for power plants and optimise their efficiency. When biomass is ...

Aim: To reconstruct spatial and temporal patterns of European fire activity during the Holocene and to explore their potential drivers, by relating biomass burning to simulated biotic and abiotic ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract This paper reports on a compartment model of the root biomass dynamics of a short-grass prairie dominated by blue grama in which fluxes ...

This project aims to develop a comprehensive strategy for the efficient and total conversion of lignocellulosic biomass—such as corn stover, bamboo, and switchgrass—into fermentable sugars, ...

The number of trees killed could increase in the future According to their estimates, lightning kills about 320 million trees annually, accounting for 2.1% to 2.9% of all plant biomass loss annually.
