The detection of rare objects within traffic environments is critically important for the safety
and reliability of autonomous driving systems. However, the scarcity of sufficient data and the …

Aims: Land use change affects ecosystem carbon dynamics by changing the plant community
structure and soil micro-environment in grassland ecosystems. The aims of this study were …

The stoichiometric elements of three dominant species, namely Stipa grandis, Artemisia
frigida and Leymus chinensis were measured in different land use (grazing-exclusion, grazing …

Aims: Grazing intensity and grazing exclusion affect ecosystem carbon cycling by changing
the plant community and soil micro-environment in grassland ecosystems. The aims of this …

Aims: Nitrogen (N) mineralization is an important ecological process which determines soil
N supplying ability, and it is a key research domain of soil N cycling worldwide at present. …

Aims: The increased atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition due to human activity and climate
change greatly causes grassland ecosystems shifting from being naturally N-limited to N-…

Microbial mineralization (corrosion, decomposition, and weathering) has been investigated
for its role in the extraction and recovery of metals from ores. Here we report our application …

Aims: We tested the responses of soil respiration to irrigation, at different proportions of field
capacity, in constructed grasslands in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of northern …

Microbial metabolic products, such as biosurfactants, bioemulsifiers, acids, solvents, and
biogases, are useful for reducing the viscosity of heavy oils and enhancing oil recovery. Two …

Bupleurum chinense DC. is one of the most important traditional Chinese medicines. Among
its primary pharmacologically active components, saikosaponins play a vital role. We …
