Recent ecological transitions in China: greening, browning, and influential factors
Ecological conservation and restoration are necessary to mitigate environmental degradation problems. China has taken great efforts in such actions. To understand the ecological transition during 2000-2010 in China, this study analysed trends in vegetation change using remote sensing and linear regression. Climate and socioeconomic factors were included to screen the driving forces for vegetati...
متن کاملSatellite Fish Forecasting in South China Sea
Fish forecasting technology has been applied successfully in many countries. However, most of the forecasting methods used in temperate water were unsuitable to be applied in this region. A fish forecasting model suitable to tropical environment has to be developed. This major project involving several objectives and phases to meet the goal of developing a satellite-based fishery forecasting sy...
متن کاملBiomass and Carbon Sequestration by Juglans regia Plantations in the Karst Regions of Southwest China
To better understand carbon (C) sequestration by Juglans regia L. plantations in karst regions of southwest China, this study examined biomass increment and C storage in four different-aged J. regia stands, as well as the distribution of carbon stock among the various ecosystem components. Tree and ecosystem biomass increased with stand age. Aboveground biomass (AGB) represented 64.79% of the t...
متن کاملBacteria biomass and carbonic anhydrase activity in some karst areas of Southwest China
To determine the role of microbes in karst processes, it is necessary to investigate the ecological distribution and characteristics of soil microorganisms in karst areas. In this paper, a preliminary study was carried out in two different karst areas of Southwest China: Nongla and the Guilin Yaji Karst Experimental Site (Guangxi). Soil samples from 10–20 cm in depth were analyzed for the numbe...
متن کاملPlant biomass increase: recent advances in genetic engineering
Plant biomass enhancement using transgenesis in model as well as in crop plants both under optimal and stress controlled (greenhouse or growth chamber) and field conditions is observed. It was documented that genetic engineering approaches allow reaching up to two-fold increase of biomass in optimal conditions. Both transgenic and initial plants reduce biomass production under stress. It was de...
