Atmospheric Transport of Terrestrial Organic Matter to the Sea
The transport of atmospheric particles with associated terrestrial organic matter to the oceans is an important process affecting various global...
-
Sources and Fate of Organic Contaminants in the Marine Environment
The sources, levels, and fate of organic contaminants of major concern in the marine environment are reviewed. Spatial distributions among the...

C4-like Sesuvium sesuvioides (Aizoaceae) exhibits CAM in cotyledons and putative C4-like + CAM metabolism in adult leaves as revealed by transcriptome analysis
BackgroundThe co-occurrence of C 4 and CAM photosynthesis in a single species seems to be unusual and rare. This is likely due to the difficulty in...
