TL;DR: In this article, the theory of stimulated Raman scattering is presented in the context of understanding the design and operation of solid-state Raman lasers, and the key design issues are discussed in relation to achieving efficient frequency conversion for various types of experimental configurations.

TL;DR: Synthesizing experiments from around the world show that CO2 fertilization is best explained by a simple interaction between nitrogen availability and mycorrhizal association, and the incorporation of myCorrhizae in global carbon cycle models is feasible, and crucial if to accurately project ecosystem responses and feedbacks to climate change.
Abstract: Plants buffer increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentrations through enhanced growth, but the question whether nitrogen availability constrains the magnitude of this ecosystem service remains unresolved. Synthesizing experiments from around the world, we show that CO 2 fertilization is best explained by a simple interaction between nitrogen availability and mycorrhizal association. Plant species that associate with ectomycorrhizal fungi show a strong biomass increase (30 ± 3%, P 2 regardless of nitrogen availability, whereas low nitrogen availability limits CO 2 fertilization (0 ± 5%, P = 0.946) in plants that associate with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The incorporation of mycorrhizae in global carbon cycle models is feasible, and crucial if we are to accurately project ecosystem responses and feedbacks to climate change.

TL;DR: Resiration rates at any common nitrogen concentration were consistently lower on average in leaves than in stems or roots, indicating that organ-specific relationships should be used in models that simulate respiration based on tissue nitrogen concentrations.
Abstract: Using a database of 2510 measurements from 287 species, we assessed whether general relationships exist between mass-based dark respiration rate and nitrogen concentration for stems and roots, and if they do, whether they are similar to those for leaves. The results demonstrate strong respiration-nitrogen scaling relationships for all observations and for data averaged by species; for roots, stems and leaves examined separately; and for life-forms (woody, herbaceous plants) and phylogenetic groups (angiosperms, gymnosperms) considered separately. No consistent differences in the slopes of these log-log scaling relations were observed among organs or among plant groups, but respiration rates at any common nitrogen concentration were consistently lower on average in leaves than in stems or roots, indicating that organ-specific relationships should be used in models that simulate respiration based on tissue nitrogen concentrations. The results demonstrate both common and divergent aspects of tissue-level respiration-nitrogen scaling for leaves, stems and roots across higher land plants, which are important in their own right and for their utility in modelling carbon fluxes at local to global scales.

TL;DR: Literature reviews play an essential role in academic research to gather existing knowledge and to examine the state of a field as mentioned in this paper, however, researchers in business, management and related disciplines tend to ignore them.

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental determination of partition coefficients (D) for Nb and Ta between Ti-rich minerals (sphene, rutile, ilmenite and Ti-magnetite) and coexisting silicate liquids of basaltic andesite and trachyte composition was performed.
