An international team led by Prof. CHEN Jitao from the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences studied ancient sedimentary rocks in Naqing, South China, to analyze their chemical compositions.
A new study led by Dr. FANG Yunting from the Institute of Applied Ecology has found that temperate forest tree species, regardless of their root symbiosis with either ectomycorrhizal or arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, consistently prefer absorbing nitrate over ammonium.
A team of scientists from the the Institute of Applied Ecology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a novel method to more accurately quantify greenhouse gas emissions from large-scale greenhouse cultivation, addressing a longstanding challenge in monitoring the environmental cost of protected agriculture.
A research team analyzed 5,000 fossil pollen samples extracted from two long lake-sediment cores in the Zoige Basin, located at approximately 3,400 meters above sea level on the eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. By integrating biomization, numerical analysis, statistical modeling, and vegetation simulations, they constructed a detailed picture of vegetation dynamics over the past 3.5 million years.
Researchers from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, alongside collaborators from China, Germany, and France, analyzed the pyrogenic carbon record in a 300,000-year-old sediment core from the East China Sea.
Scientists from the Institute of Applied Ecology have discovered a promising new use for a key intermediate in vitamin C production, demonstrating its potential to enhance plant growth and increase the accumulation of valuable bioactive compounds.
