Temporal evolution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in sediments of the Hooghly river, West Bengal, IndiaNARA Subscribed
The study evaluated the effect of monsoons on the levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the Hooghly River estuary sediments over 2018–2021. It was observed a cyclical enrichment of organic material, carbonate deposits, and clay over the post-monsoon and impoverishment over the monsoon because of the heavy rains and flood events. The mean total level of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was 1682 ng/g with a wide range of...
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Generation of Priority Research Questions to Inform Conservation Policy and Management at a National LevelNARA Subscribed
Integrating knowledge from across the natural and social sciences is necessary to effectively address societal tradeoffs between human use of biological diversity and its preservation. Collaborative processes can change the ways decision makers think about scientific evidence, enhance levels of mutual trust and credibility, and advance the conservation policy discourse. Canada has responsibility for a large fraction of some ma...
