Jon P McCalmont et al.
Planting the perennial biomass crop Miscanthus in the UK could offset 2-13 Mt oil eq. yr-1, contributing up to 10% of current energy use. Policymakers need assurance that upscaling Miscanthus production can be performed sustainably without ...
Radiation capture and conversion efficiencies of Miscanthus sacchariflorus, M. sinensis and their naturally occurring hybrid M. × giganteus [0.03%]
大果芒、荻以及它们的自然杂交种巨菌草对太阳辐射的吸收和转化效率研究

Christopher Lyndon Davey et al.
Miscanthus is a rhizomatous C4 grass of great interest as a biofuel crop because it has the potential to produce high yields over a wide geographical area with low agricultural inputs on marginal land less suitable for food production. At t...
Soil carbon and belowground carbon balance of a short-rotation coppice: assessments from three different approaches [0.03%]
土壤碳及短期轮伐林地下碳平衡收支的不同评估方法

Gonzalo Berhongaray et al.
Uncertainty in soil carbon (C) fluxes across different land-use transitions is an issue that needs to be addressed for the further deployment of perennial bioenergy crops. A large-scale short-rotation coppice (SRC) site with poplar (Populus...
Water use of a multigenotype poplar short-rotation coppice from tree to stand scale [0.03%]
从单株到林分尺度的多基因型杨树灌木林需水规律研究
Jasper Bloemen,Régis Fichot,Joanna A Horemans et al.
Jasper Bloemen et al.
Short-rotation coppice (SRC) has great potential for supplying biomass-based heat and energy, but little is known about SRC's ecological footprint, particularly its impact on the water cycle. To this end, we quantified the water use of a co...
Dedicated biomass crops can enhance biodiversity in the arable landscape [0.03%]
能源作物的专门化能够提高农作景观中的生物多样性
Alison J Haughton,David A Bohan,Suzanne J Clark et al.
Alison J Haughton et al.
Suggestions that novel, non-food, dedicated biomass crops used to produce bioenergy may provide opportunities to diversify and reinstate biodiversity in intensively managed farmland have not yet been fully tested at the landscape scale. Usi...
Genotypic diversity effects on biomass production in native perennial bioenergy cropping systems [0.03%]
多年生能源作物系统中基因型多样性对生物量产量的影响
Geoffrey P Morris,Zhenbin Hu,Paul P Grabowski et al.
Geoffrey P Morris et al.
The perennial grass species that are being developed as biomass feedstock crops harbor extensive genotypic diversity, but the effects of this diversity on biomass production are not well understood. We investigated the effects of genotypic ...
Environmental and resource burdens associated with world biofuel production out to 2050: footprint components from carbon emissions and land use to waste arisings and water consumption [0.03%]
面向2050年的全球生物燃料生产对环境和资源的压力:从碳排放、土地利用到废弃物产生和水资源消耗的影响分析
Geoffrey P Hammond,Bo Li
Geoffrey P Hammond
Environmental or 'ecological' footprints have been widely used in recent years as indicators of resource consumption and waste absorption presented in terms of biologically productive land area [in global hectares (gha)] required per capita...
Association mapping in Salix viminalis L. (Salicaceae) - identification of candidate genes associated with growth and phenology [0.03%]
柳属植物的关联分析-鉴定与生长和物候相关的候选基因
Henrik R Hallingbäck,Johan Fogelqvist,Stephen J Powers et al.
Henrik R Hallingbäck et al.
Willow species (Salix) are important as short-rotation biomass crops for bioenergy, which creates a demand for faster genetic improvement and breeding through deployment of molecular marker-assisted selection (MAS). To find markers associat...
Potential impacts on ecosystem services of land use transitions to second-generation bioenergy crops in GB [0.03%]
英国土地利用转变为第二代生物能源作物对生态系统服务的潜在影响
Suzanne Milner,Robert A Holland,Andrew Lovett et al.
Suzanne Milner et al.
We present the first assessment of the impact of land use change (LUC) to second-generation (2G) bioenergy crops on ecosystem services (ES) resolved spatially for Great Britain (GB). A systematic approach was used to assess available eviden...
Balance between climate change mitigation benefits and land use impacts of bioenergy: conservation implications for European birds [0.03%]
生物能源的气候缓解效益和土地使用影响之间的平衡及其对欧洲鸟类保护的影响
Laura Meller,Wilfried Thuiller,Samuel Pironon et al.
Laura Meller et al.
Both climate change and habitat modification exert serious pressure on biodiversity. Although climate change mitigation has been identified as an important strategy for biodiversity conservation, bioenergy remains a controversial mitigation...
