Biogenic silica-based microparticles obtained as a sub-product of the nanocellulose extraction process from pineapple peels
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018-07-10)Silica in plant tissues has been suggested as a component for enhancing mechanical properties, and as a physical barrier. Pineapples present in their shell and bracts rosette-like microparticles that could be associated ... -
Contrasting patterns of leaf trait variation among and within species during tropical dry forest succession in Costa Rica
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018-01-10)A coordinated response to environmental drivers amongst individual functional traits is central to the plant strategy concept. However, whether the trait co-ordination observed at the global scale occurs at other ecological ... -
Recovery of acetate by anion exchange with consecutive CO2-expanded methanol desorption: A model-based approach
(Elsevier BV, 2018-04-07)Production of bio-based acetate is commonly hindered by the high costs of the downstream processing. In this paper, a model is developed to describe a new method that recovers acetate salts using anion exchange resins, and ... -
Spontaneous spawning, ontogeny and growth in captivity of Cynoscion squamipinnis
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2016-09-03)The croakers or drums are commercial species, which have been overfished in the Nicoya Gulf, Costa Rica. This study aimed to describe, for the first time, the reproduction and the ontogeny of weakfish, Cynoscion squamipinnis ...
