Aims In the context of global change,the impacts of forest structure alter-ation on climbing plants in extra-tropical ecosystems are poorly understood.It also remains little explored,the functional strategies among cl...
Human activities have led to global simplification of ecosystems, among which Neotropical dry forests are some of the most threatened. Habitat loss as well as edge effects may affect insect communities. Here, we analy...
Combustion is a chemical phenomenon in which a multitude of elementary chemical reactions take place, resulting in the overall process of fuel oxidation. Natural gas fuel has been explored for a few decades and extrac...
