Abstract:
The effects of light environment on temporal growth and allocation patterns in the subtropical Chinese evergreen tree Gordonia acuminata, a gap-dependent species, were studied during its first 2 years of growth. Seedlings were grown in full sun (S100), 55% of full sun (S5S), 33% of full sun (S33), and 18% of full sun (S18). During the 1st year, plant size and leaf dynamics were monitored nondestructively. The best growth was at S33. Growth rates fluctuated more from season to season in treatments of higher relative light exposure, largely owing to sun-imposed inhibition of growth in summer. Le

Abstract:
The use of shade trees in coffee fields have been motivated by climatic changes. However, microclimatic conditions in shaded coffee fields differ due to shade tree spatial distribution and species, altering physiological responses of coffee trees.

Abstract:
Fossil leaf anatomy has previously been used as a proxy for paleoclimate. However, the exposure of leaves to sun or shade during their growth can lead to morphotype differences that confound the interpretation of fossil leaf anatomy in relation to climate and prevent reliable paleoclimate reconstruction. This work aims to model the differences in leaf anatomy that are due to various climatic drivers and differences attributable to sun or shade positions, using Nothofagus cunninghamii as the model species. Leaves from the sun and shade parts of three trees have been sampled from each of 11 site

The study of the leafmining moth of the chestnut miner (Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dymić, 1986) was carried out through the planting of the common horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) in the Main Botanical Garden of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The effect of various degrees of insolation of horse chestnut plants on leaf morphology and the composition of secondary metabolites, as well as the relationship of these parameters with the number and density of C. ohridella populations during the growing season, was studied. The solar influence, it was noted, had a significant impact.

Abstract Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are commercially used as an active ingredient or a color additive in foods, pharmaceuticals, sun protection lotions, and cosmetic products. While the use of ZnO NPs in everyday products has not been linked to any serious health issues so far, the scientific evidence generated for their safety is not conclusive and, in most cases, could not be validated further in in vivo settings. To settle controversies arising from inconsistent in vitro findings in previous research focusing on the toxicity ZnO NPs, we combined the results of 25+ independent studie

Solar panels mounted on actuators at the top of the vertiport adjust their orientation to maximize sun exposure, supplying power to the vertiport’s isolated grid for continuous energy day and night.

The radiation environment in space is a complex mixture of particles of solar and galactic origin with a broad range of energies. In astronaut dose estimation, three sources must be considered: galactic cosmic radiation, trapped particles, and solar energetic particles (SEPs). The astronaut dose due to SEP exposure during a space mission is more difficult to estimate than the other components because the occurrence of a large solar particle event cannot be predicted by the current space weather research.

The relationship assumed is usually one of woodpecker dependence or preference for partially decayed wood in which to excavate cavities, but the woodpecker is also sometimes suggested as a vector for the fungus.
