A study by researchers at the Center for Advanced Bioenergy and Bioproducts Innovation (CABBI) found that net primary productivity in Miscanthus × giganteus is driven by aboveground productivity, influenced by nitrogen application and site. The results provide useful data for agroecosystem models and crucial insights for future perennial belowground sampling, and will help improve understanding of the carbon sequestration potential of this perennial grass.

A research team has developed a ferromanganese oxide-modified biochar that achieved exceptional performance in eliminating copper–citrate (CuCA) complexes from contaminated water.

New research shows that humans left their mark on the landscape through hunting and the use of fire tens of thousands of years before the advent of agriculture. The research paints a new picture of the past, say co-authors of the new study, Professor Jens-Christian Svenning from Aarhus University and PhD candidate and postdoctoral researcher Anastasia Nikulina  from Leiden University and  Durham University.
