Effect of Climate Change on Agricultural Production

Agricultural production is influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, air humidity, soil water, light intensity, and CO2 concentration. However, climate change has influenced the values of average temperature, precipitation, global atmospheric CO2 concentration, or ozone level. Thus, climate change could lead to different situations on plants and consequently influence agricultural production. With this chapter, the authors intend to research how climate change influences some plant metabolisms (such as photosynthesis, photorespiration, transpiration, among others) and therefore agricultural production.

Group 6 transition metal-based molecular catalysts for sustainable catalytic CO2 reduction

The alarming growth in atmospheric CO2 has emerged as one of the prime concerns in the context of climate change. The power, petroleum, and construction sectors are the major contributors...

Electroreduction of Carbon Dioxide to Formate using Highly Efficient Bimetallic Sn-Pd Aerogels

Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to valuable materials is a promising approach to supress atmospheric CO2 levels. In order to bring this strategy to a commercial scale, the design...
