Land use strategies to mitigate climate change in carbon dense temperate forests
TL;DR: This approach in a high biomass region found that reforestation, afforestation, lengthened harvest cycles on private lands, and restricting harvest on public lands increased net ecosystem carbon balance by 56% by 2100, with the latter two actions contributing the most.

Cold-acclimation-induced protein hypertrophy in channel catfish and green sunfish.
TL;DR: The two-fold increases in total enyzme activities, superimposed on either an increase or decrease in specific activity, suggest that two biochemical mechanisms may be operative during cold-induced liver hypertrophy, one effecting a specific step in protein translation at a point common to the synthesis of all proteins and a second targetted pretranslationally, i.e., transcriptional regulation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate current challenges with modeling soil carbon dynamics, trace gas fluxes, and drought and age-related impacts on bioenergy crop productivity, and propose coupling a microbial process-based soil organic carbon and nitrogen model with Century to improve soil carbon.

A steady state and differential polarised phase fluorimetric study of the liver microsomal and mitochondrial membranes of thermally acclimated green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus)
TL;DR: Steady state polarisation studies indicated that the liver mitochondria of green sunfish acclimated to different temperatures showed a greater partial compensation of membrane fluidity for the fatty acid composition of both membrane preparations generally became more unsaturated at lower acclimation temperatures, though the differences between 5 degrees C and 25 degrees C acclimate fish were more pronounced in the mitochondrial fraction than in the microsomal fraction.

Effects of Incubation and Acclimation Temperatures on Incorporation of $U-[^{14}C]$ Glycine into Mitochondrial Protein of Liver Cells and Slices from Green Sunfish, Lepomis Cyanellus
Jeffrey Kent,C. Ladd Prosser +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that incorporation of glycine into a sucrose-extracted mitochondrial fraction shows compensatory acclimation and that hepatocytes from warmacclimated fish exhibit a greater thermal sensitivity for incorporation of glucose into the mitochondrial fraction than do hepatocyte from cold-acclimating fish.
