programs. The case study...
Compact storage systems demonstrating increased hydrogen storage capacity are the key to advancing the growth of the hydrogen economy throughout the world and reducing the global dependence on fossil fuels for transportation. The use of highly porous adsorbent materials for reversible hydrogen storage is a promising pathway towards achieving storage...
Douglas-fir seedlings were inoculated with different species of
ectomycorrhizae-forming fungi in order to test the concept that
ectomycorrhizae enhance the drought tolerance of seedlings and to
investigate the mechanisms responsible for this effect.
Seedlings were transplanted at age 6 to 8 weeks into pots
containing pasteurized loam soil and inoculated...
