| Global BECCS potential is largely constrained by sustainable irrigation Posted: 05 Jul 2021 08:39 AM PDT Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), a negative emission technology, has been considered inevitable to achieve the 2°C or 1.5°C climate goal. Although numerous studies have been conducted, the effect of irrigation remains largely unexplored when taking water use sustainability into consideration. A new study finds that although unlimited irrigation could increase the global BECCS potential by 60-71% by the end of this century, sustainably constrained irrigation would increase it only 5-6%. |
| Belowground microbial solutions to aboveground plant problems Posted: 05 Jul 2021 08:39 AM PDT Researchers have discovered that signaling occurring from the response of plant leaves to light, and plant roots to microbes, is integrated along a microbiota-root-shoot axis to boost plant growth when light conditions are suboptimal. |
| Hunting and hidden deaths led to 30% reduction in WI wolf population Posted: 05 Jul 2021 06:47 AM PDT About 100 additional wolves died over the winter in Wisconsin as a result of the delisting of grey wolves under the Endangered Species Act, alongside the 218 wolves killed by licensed hunters during Wisconsin's first public wolf hunt, according to new research. A majority of these additional, uncounted deaths are due to cryptic poaching, where poachers hide evidence of illegal killings. |
| Breakthrough in tissue engineering as 'shape memory' supports tissue growth Posted: 05 Jul 2021 06:47 AM PDT New research has demonstrated the viability of 3D-printed tissue scaffolds that harmlessly degrade while promoting tissue regeneration following implantation. |
| Securing decent living standards for all while reducing global energy use Posted: 29 Jun 2021 04:17 PM PDT Fundamental changes in our economies are required to secure decent living standards for all in the struggle against climate breakdown, according to new research. |
