Sympatric closely-related species co-occur within heterogeneous environments by occupying separate ecological niches as result of adaptive differentiation. Soil salinity is one the most relevant drivers leading plant zonation in salt marshes, where germination a critical stage life cycle many halophytes. Salinity influence on patterns was evaluated for six sympatric Limonium (L. admirable, L. c...

Solar energy is preferred over other sources because of its low cost, ease collecting, and availability as a source power, well effectiveness in reducing pollution water scarcity. ponds are low-grade thermal systems that can also be used to absorb/store solar radiation. Extensive research/advances pond performance have been sparked by the potential influence various types heat storage with extr...
