However, relatively little is known about the mechanisms controlling rarity and the processes promoting the development of the rare biosphere. Here, we propose the use of multivariate cut-offs to estimate rare species and phylogenetic null models applied to predefined rare taxa to disentangle the ...
Quantifying carbon processes of the terrestrial biosphere in a global atmospheric inversion based on atmospheric mixing ratio, remote sensing and meteorological dataBakr Abdel Aziz Mohamed BadawyMax-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie
The mathematical model was developed which reflects the system of interconnected ecological, climatic, biogeocenotic and socioeconomic processes that are at play in the biosphere. Biosphere dynamics are represented as a diagram of flows energy and matter. The model divides the biosphere into the atmos...
We calculate that this forearc subsurface biosphere could sequester 1.4 × 109 to 1.4 × 1010 mol of carbon per year, which would decrease estimates of the total carbon delivered to the mantle by 2 to 22%. Based on the observed correlations, we suggest that distribution and ...
Ecological pricing theory and method is reviewed, and then applied to the valuation of biosphere processes and services. Ecological pricing values biosphere processes, on the basis of biophysical interdependencies between all parts of the ecosystem, not just those that have direct or obvious value to...
What process brings energy to the biosphere? How can prokaryotes perform cellular respiration if they do not have mitochondria? How is cellular respiration similar between lentic, lotic, terrestrial, and wetland systems? How do heterotrophs get food?
Bioinorganic chemistry and mineralogy of biogenic iron oxides from Loihi seamount: A case study relevant to the crustal deep biosphere Establishing linkages between mineral transformations - dissolution and precipitation - and biological processes is critical for evaluating the biological ...

Free Radicals in Biology: Oxidative Stress and the Effects of Ionizing Radiation The most important electron acceptor in the biosphere is molecular oxygen which, by virtue of its bi-radical nature, readily accepts unpaired electrons to ... PA Riley - 《International Journal of Radiation Biology &...
The Processes of the energy and water cycle,as a hot point of climate research,play an important role in the interaction of geosphere-biosphere-atmosphere. Some scientific experiments and research results about the processes of the energy and water cycle are introduced. Primary scientific problems ab...
Environmental Processes covers: processes related to the interactions of the water, air-atmosphere, and soil-sediment environments with the humans and the biosphere; environmental flow processes, hydrodynamics and hydrology; pollutant physical, chemical and biological processes, including pollutant sources ...
