Economic Evaluation of Eucalypt Energy Plantations1

An evaluation of the economic feasibility of investment in a eucalypt energy plantation must involve an assessment of the costs of the various cultural practices (planting, weed control, irri­ gation), the costs of processing the standing tree into a usable form (logging costs, transportation costs, chipping, cutting to firewood length) and the returns expected from the sale of the pro­ cessed ...

Managing soil fertility in eucalypt plantations in China

More than 1.5 M ha of eucalypt plantations have been established in south China, increasing by about 100,000 ha y. Productivity is uneven and low, only about 25-50% of the world average for eucalypt plantations. Most land available for eucalypts are degraded oxisols and utilsols which also are acidic, highly leached and deeply weathered. Phosphorus deficiency is very severe and its availability...

Lipid and lignin composition of woods from different eucalypt species

The lipid and lignin compositions of woods from the eucalypt species Eucalyptus globulus, E. nitens, E. maidenii, E. grandis, and E. dunnii have been characterized. The lipid composition was analyzed by GC and GC/MS using shortand medium-length high-temperature capillary columns, which allowed the detection of intact highmolecular-weight compounds. Similar lipid compositions were observed in al...

Models of Eucalypt phenology predict bat population flux

Fruit bats (Pteropodidae) have received increased attention after the recent emergence of notable viral pathogens of bat origin. Their vagility hinders data collection on abundance and distribution, which constrains modeling efforts and our understanding of bat ecology, viral dynamics, and spillover. We addressed this knowledge gap with models and data on the occurrence and abundance of nectari...
