DOI: 10.1007/s10530-018-1845-6
Abstract: Novel interactions between exotic plants and native herbivores can be driven by multiple ecological and evolutionary processes, but the underlying mechanisms have rarely been explored from a multitrophic perspective. In this study, we examined the… read more here.

Redox characterization of humins in sediments from the Yangtze Estuary to the East China Sea and their effects on microbial redox reactions
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of Soils and Sediments"
DOI: 10.1007/s11368-018-02235-w
Abstract: PurposeHumins, as solid-phase redox mediators, are important for enhancing anaerobic biotransformation processes. Although humins are broadly distributed in estuarine and marine sediments, to date, their electron transfer capacity (ETC) from marine sediments has been poorly… read more here.
