Batesian mimicry, the resemblance of palatable organisms to an aversive model, is a well documented phenomenon in biology. Resemblance to the model, however, frequently seems to be inaccurate for unknown reasons (Edmunds, 2000). Recently, Johnstone (2002) modelled a scenario where kin selection can lead to the evolution of inaccurate mimics. The model assumes that if mimics are relatively frequ...

Biomass pyrolysis with biochar returned to soil is a possible strategy for climate change mitigation and reducing fossil fuel consumption. Pyrolysis with biochar applied to soils results in four coproducts: long-term carbon (C) sequestration from stable C in the biochar, renewable energy generation, biochar as a soil amendment, and biomass waste management. Life cycle assessment was used to est...

BACKGROUND Sugarcane is an attractive feedstock for ethanol production, especially if the lignocellulosic fraction can also be treated in second generation (2G) ethanol plants. However, the profitability of 2G ethanol is affected by the processing conditions, operating costs and market prices. This study focuses on the minimum ethanol selling price (MESP) and maximum profitability of ethanol pr...

Presently, development implementation renewable systems are ensured mainly through state funding, possibilities which limited. The potential attracting private investments impact companies’ profitability indicators, uncertainty rega...
