CO2 can stimulate plant growth, but only when enough nitrogen is available—and that key ingredient has been seriously ...

Plants mobilize their immune defenses far earlier than scientists have believed for decades—and through a previously ...

A new method predicts leaf optical properties from traits, improving canopy light modeling and photosynthesis estimates in ...

Thermal power generation has to adapt new methods to thrive as renewables transform dispatch. Now used more often as a bridge source of power rather than the main source of power, many fossil fuel ...

Errors in how scientists account for water loss from leaves may be skewing estimates of how much energy plants make through photosynthesis, according to the latest research. This in turn could ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a huge role in heat rate optimization. In some cases, AI-driven models have analyzed operational data to recommend control settings that reduce heat rates by ...

A study recently published in the journal Nature finds plants have been absorbing 31 percent more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than previously assumed and modeled. The international team of ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We constructed and tested a series of regression models of intraspecific competition in Ratibida columnifera (Asteraceae), based on the growth ...

While global plant growth has increased slightly during the past 30 years, researchers have found that it hasn't increased as much as some scientists predicted. While global plant growth has increased ...

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has emerged as a leading strategy in advanced process control, offering the ability to anticipate future process behaviour and manage constraints in dynamic systems.
