Temperature and pH define the realised niche space of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi Open
Summary The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are a globally distributed group of soil organisms that play critical roles in ecosystem function. However, the ecological niches of individual AM fungal taxa are poorly understood. We collecte…

Challenging Global Waste Management – Bioremediation to Detoxify Asbestos Open
As the 21st century uncovers ever-increasing volumes of asbestos and asbestos-contaminated waste, we need a new way to stop 'grandfather's problem' from becoming that of our future generations. The production of inexpensive, mechanically s…

Aboveground Competition and Herbivory Overpower Plant-Soil Feedback Contributions to Succession in a Remediated Grassland Open
Plant-soil feedback (PSF) can provide a driving force during ecological succession by altering soil properties in ways that benefit or disadvantage other species in the successional sequence. Succession may be inevitable in disturbed sites…

WIND TUNNEL TESTS OF HOW COASTAL PLANTS FEEDBACK ON DUNE SHAPE Open
Theoretical evolution of a coastal dune system starts at the individual plant level with the formation of bedforms, nebkha and shadow dunes, around plants. Over time, these initial bedforms can evolve into a fully developed foredune and ev…

Wind tunnel tests inform Ammophila planting spacing for dune management Open
Coastal dunes are invaluable natural resources that bu er upland areas. Vegetation is key in dune development and stabilization. Dunes form with sufficient wind, sand source, and obstruction; plants are the ideal obstruction. Storms o en e…

Effects of increased temperature on plant communities depend on landscape location and precipitation Open
Global climate change is affecting and will continue to affect ecosystems worldwide. Specifically, temperature and precipitation are both expected to shift globally, and their separate and interactive effects will likely affect ecosystems …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization has little consequence for plant heavy metal uptake in contaminated field soils Open
The factors affecting plant uptake of heavy metals from metalliferous soils are deeply important to the remediation of polluted areas. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi ( AMF ), soil‐dwelling fungi that engage in an intimate exchange of nutrien…

Recovery following defoliation involves shifts in allocation that favour storage and reproduction over radial growth in black oak Open
Summary Carbon allocation to growth, storage, reproduction and the effects of stress and disturbances on these processes remain poorly understood in trees. Non‐structural carbohydrates ( NSC ) are an important component of the carbon stora…
