Using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) within Fairclough's three-dimensional framework, it examined how these newspapers depict THAAD and its broader impacts. The research f

Modelling species specific drought response in a tropical rainforest in Xishuangbanna, China

Tropiska skogar utsätts för mer intensiva och frekventa torkor. Torkor påverkar tillväxt och kollagring i skogen, samt ökar risken för trädödlighet. Det finns flera hypoteser om mekanismerna bakom dödlighet under torka. Två av de vanligaste är något som kallas kolsvält och kavitation. Det är oklart vilken av dessa två mekanismer som inträffar först i tropiska träd under långvarig torka. ExperimentTropical forests experience more intense and frequent droughts. Droughts affect mortality in trees, growth rate and carbon storage in the forest. There are several hypotheses of the mechanisms behind tree mortality during drought. Two of the most common ones are carbon starvation and hydraulic failure. It is unclear which of these mechanisms occur first in tropical trees during long term drought.
