Terrestrial mammals of the Americas and their interactions with plastic waste
(Springer, 2023)
Plastics have brought many benefits to society, but their mismanagement has turned them into a serious environmental problem. Today, the effects of plastic waste on wildlife are becoming increasingly evident. Since studies ...
Assessing threats, regulations, and strategies to abate plastic pollution in LAC beaches during COVID-19 pandemic
(Elsevier, 2021-07-01)
Plastic use and production have dramatically increased globally over the past 65 years with the improvement of life quality by the daily use of plastic products. Still, around 50% of the plastic produced is disposable ...
Has yield plasticity already been exploited by soybean breeding programmes in Argentina?
(Oxford University Press, 2021-10)
This study focuses on the impact of genetic improvement of seed yield plasticity in soybean (Glycine max L.) in high-yielding environments (between 4000 kg ha-1 and 7000 kg ha-1) of Central Argentina. The association between ...
Plasticity to simulated shade is associated with altitude in structured populations of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-02-14)
Plants compete for photosynthesis light and induce a shade avoidance syndrome (SAS) that confers an important advantage in asymmetric competition for light at high canopy densities. Shade plasticity was studied in a ...
A importância da reciclagem dos plásticos e a conscientização dos alunos do ensino médio
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáMedianeira, 2014-11-29)
The plastic due to its versatility, variety of applications, price and durability has greatly increased its use worldwide and can cause much damage to the environment because it takes about hundreds of years to undo, ...
Morphological and physiological plasticity in seedlings of Araucaria angustifolia and Cabralea canjerana is related to plant establishment performance in the rainforest
(Elsevier, 2020)
High phenotypic plasticity is an important characteristic that should have a tree species that is going to be used to restore degraded rainforests, as those are stressful and changing environments. Quantifying phenotypic ...
Transfer of a cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet through a long flexible plastic tube
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2015-04-01)
This work proposes an experimental configuration for the generation of a cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet at the downstream end of a long flexible plastic tube. The device consists of a cylindrical dielectric chamber ...
Hygrotermal effects evaluation using the losipescu shear test for glare laminates
(Abcm Brazilian Soc Mechanical Sciences & Engineering, 2008-07-01)
Fiber-metal laminates (FML) composed of alternating layers of unidirectional fibers-reinforced plastic (FRP) laminae and aluminum-alloy sheets offer some superior mechanical properties, compared with either conventional ...
