Does Water Brownification Affect Duckweeds in Freshwaters? Results from a Laboratory Experiment

چکیده
The influence of water brownification (an increase in color) on floating-leaved macrophytes appears to be an important issue predicting the consequences climate change freshwater ecosystems. To fill gap knowledge this area, we performed a laboratory experiment aiming test impact humic acid (HA) Lemna minor sampled from oxbow lake. Plants were exposed over seven days four different additions pure HA (resulting DOC concentrations between 5.0 ± 0.1 mg dm−3 and 36.5 0.4 dm−3). Changes duckweed total fresh biomass, leaf area root length measured, as well phosphorus, phosphates nitrates water. study did not find any significant decrease either biomass or L. under conditions enhanced content. However, found that moderate promoted growth roots, thus, increasing but area. In contrast, large suppressed roots minor, which was also coincidence with less nutrient depletion

When does the price affect the taste ? Results from a wine experiment
We designed an experiment that examines how knowledge about the price of a good, and the time at which the information is received, affects how the good is experienced. The good in question was wine, and the price was either high or low. Our results suggest that hosts offering wine to guests can safely reveal the price: much is gained if the wine is expensive, and little is lost if it is cheap....
متن کاملHow Does Tree Density Affect Water Loss of Peatlands? A Mesocosm Experiment
Raised bogs have accumulated more atmospheric carbon than any other terrestrial ecosystem on Earth. Climate-induced expansion of trees and shrubs may turn these ecosystems from net carbon sinks into sources when associated with reduced water tables. Increasing water loss through tree evapotranspiration could potentially deepen water tables, thus stimulating peat decomposition and carbon release...
متن کاملDoes Conflict affect Preferences? Results from Field Experiments in Burundi
We use experimental data from 35 randomly selected communities in Burundi to examine the impact of exposure to conflict on social-, riskand time preferences. These types of preferences are important as they determine people’s propensity to invest and their ability to overcome social dilemmas, so that changes therein foster or hinder economic growth. We find that conflict affects preferences. In...
متن کاملHow Does Popularity Information Affect Choices? A Field Experiment
P information is usually thought to reinforce existing sales trends by encouraging customers to flock to mainstream products with broad appeal. We suggest a countervailing market force: popularity information may benefit niche products with narrow appeal disproportionately, because the same level of popularity implies higher quality for narrow-appeal products than for broad-appeal products. We ...
