Much of what we know about plant circadian rhythms is the result of laboratory experiments where inputs such as light and temperature can be tightly controlled. Less is known about how these ...
Soil microbiology research increasingly depends on big data. This means that experiments will no longer only mostly be carried out under controlled conditions in the laboratory but will instead move ...
LOGAN, UTAH, USA – The cause-effect sequence or “feedback” between plants and their soil microbial communities plays an important role in structuring plant communities. To predict this synergistic ...
What scientists increasingly understand is that bird navigation is far more complex than simply following familiar landmarks.
Ibanez, Maria, and Bradley R. Staats. "Behavioral Empirics and Field Experiments." In The Handbook of Behavioral Operations, edited by Karen Donohue, Elena Katok, and ...
Field experiments are conducted, e.g., to explore the environmental effects of crop rotations. Here an experiment aiming at environmental nitrogen management is shown. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert!
When we develop business strategies, we often rely on what we believe has worked in the past. Unfortunately, we’re often wrong. A better way to make a decision with financial consequences is to ...
A new study has used a series of innovative field experiments to show how plants combine circadian clock signals with environmental cues under naturally fluctuating conditions. Much of what we know ...
