Clostridium thermocellum is one of the most efficient microorganisms for the deconstruction of cellulosic biomass. To achieve this high level of cellulolytic activity, C. thermocellum uses large multienzyme complexes known as cellulosomes to break do...
Tree bark represents a large global carbon stock, comprising 2-20 % of woody biomass, and plays a distinct role in carbon and nutrient cycling. It is poorly understood how different abiotic and biotic drivers contribute to bark decomposition globally...
Seaweed mariculture represents a promising blue-carbon strategy, but its carbon-sequestration dynamics and resilience to warming remain insufficiently constrained. Here, we conducted a comprehensive field assessment at a representative (nori) maricu...
Biomass is mainly composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, where lignin is almost one-third of the amount of biomass. Lignin is removed from the biomass matrix because its complex, recalcitrant structure acts as a physical and chemical barri...
This study provides a comprehensive assessment of phytoplankton biomass dynamics in Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana, by combining monthly water quality data with multispectral and hyperspectral satellite observations using a machine learning algorithm....
Biochar, a carbon-enriched material derived from pyrolyzed biomass, has evolved from an ancient farming practice into a mature carbon sequestration technology, emerging as a pivotal strategy for achieving carbon neutrality. Nevertheless, heterogeneou...
The study investigates the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven neural network time series (NNTS) model for the forecasting prediction of dye removal using ultrasonic activated mixed biomass. Surface and functional characterization of u...

Accurate estimation of algal biomass is essential for monitoring ecosystem productivity, managing aquaculture systems, and optimizing bioresource applications. However, traditional in situ methods are labor-intensive and spatially limited, while remo...
Microplastics (MPs) in soil can paradoxically stimulate microbial biomass in a highly context-dependent manner, potentially inducing decomposition and affecting carbon and nitrogen cycles. We conducted a global meta-analysis with 90 studies (710 obse...
Phytoplankton communities in tropical macrotidal estuaries are highly sensitive to hydroclimatic variability, particularly during extreme El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events. This study assessed ENSO effects on phytoplankton dynamics in the Sã...
