Exploring the Diversity and Ecological Dynamics of Palm Leaf Spotting Fungi—A Case Study on Ornamental Palms in Portugal by Diana S. Pereira, Alan J. L. Phillips

“…Furthermore, while research on palm fungal diversity has traditionally focused on tropical assemblages, ornamental palms in temperate climates offer a unique opportunity to explore the diversity of palm fungi in non-native habitats. …”

Interactions of fertilisation and crop productivity in soil nitrogen cycle microbiome and gas emissions by L. Kuusemets, Ü. Mander, J. Escuer-Gatius, A. Astover, K. Kauer, K. Soosaar, M. Espenberg

“…Sorghum showed good potential for cultivation in temperate climates, as it showed a similar biomass yield compared to the other crop types and fertilisation rates but maintained low N<span class="inline-formula">₂</span>O emissions and N losses in a mineral N fertilisation rate of 80 kg N ha<span class="inline-formula">⁻¹</span>.…”

Network Meta-Analysis of Factors Influencing the Carbon Sink Capacity of Urban Park Green Spaces by Yutong JI, Tianyi LIN, Lian LIU, Xiong LI

“…Subgroup analysis by climate type shows that the research objects dominated by temperate climates show higher heterogeneity, presumably because the longitudinal differences of the research objects in temperate regions are large, and the differences in plant species and ecological environments lead to large differences in the measurement results of carbon sink capacity.ConclusionThis research provides critical insights into the interplay of factors shaping the carbon sink potential of urban parks, emphasizing the importance of stable foundational strategies like design and maintenance. …”
