The transesterification of vegetable oils with methanol as well as the main uses of the fatty
acid methyl esters are reviewed. The general aspects of this process and the applicability of …

… from remobilized NSC in roots as old as 17 years (12), and new roots in desert palms were
produced from remobilized NSC as old as >60 years (R. Vargas, C. Czimczik, S. Bullock, X. …

The rewetting of dry soils and the thawing of frozen soils are short-term, transitional phenomena
in terms of hydrology and the thermodynamics of soil systems. The impact of these short-…

This paper describes the technical development and accuracy assessment of the most
recent and improved version of the SoilGrids system at 250m resolution (June 2016 update). …

This paper presents a detailed description of finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC)
applied to power converters. Several key aspects related to this methodology are, in …

Widespread tree mortality associated with drought has been observed on all forested continents
and global change is expected to exacerbate vegetation vulnerability. Forest mortality …

Phenology, by controlling the seasonal activity of vegetation on the land surface, plays a
fundamental role in regulating photosynthesis and other ecosystem processes, as well as …

We use eddy covariance measurements of net ecosystem productivity (NEP) from 21
FLUXNET sites (153 site-years of data) to investigate relationships between phenology and …

Model predictive control with a finite control set has emerged as a promising control tool for
power converters and drives. One of the major advantages is the possibility to control several …

… . We used two statistics (that is, the Gelman–Rubin (G–R) statistic and the coefficient of
efficiency) to ensure the quality of the SOC data along the vertical profiles. We calculated the G–R …
