Biodiversity increases the ability of ecosystems to provide multiple functions. Most studies report a positive relationship between species richness and the number of ecosystem functions. However, it ...

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) represents a particularly interesting method among the living polymerization techniques. A unique feature of all metathesis polymerizations is the ...

image: IBS and KAIST researchers employed the gold electrode and attached the target molecules onto the electrode. Just like functional groups generate diverse electronic effects, one electrode fits ...

A priori, we identified species groups among eight halophytes of the southern California tidal marsh plain, using cluster analysis on growth form and life history traits which are commonly employed to ...

The plant functional group classification was derived from the BIOLFLOR database. Factorial decomposition of functional groups was applied. Results: Natural habitat availability and low land use ...

Aliphatic alcohols are cheap, widely available, and very stable building blocks for chemical synthesis and drug discovery. Now, a team of chemists has found a way to add functional groups to them in ...
