A Roadmap for an Integrated Assessment Approach to the Adaptation of Concrete B...
Figueiredo, Eloi; Santos, Luís Oliveira; Moldovan, Ionut; Kraniotis, Dimitrios; Melo, José; Dias, Luís; Coelho, Guilherme B. A.Bridges play a crucial role in modern societies, regardless of their culture, geographical location, or economic development. The safest, most economical, and most resilient bridges are those that are well managed and maintained. Recently, climate change has been posed as one of the greatest concerns for the health of bridges. Although the uncertainty associated with the magnitude of the change is large, the fa...
Elevated air movement enhances stomatal sensitivity to abscisic acid in leaves ...
Carvalho, Dália R. A.; Torre, Sissel; Kraniotis, Dimitrios; Almeida, Domingos P. F.; Heuvelink, Ep; Carvalho, Susana M. P.High relative air humidity (RH ≥ 85%) during growth leads to stomata malfunctioning, resulting in water stress when plants are transferred to conditions of high evaporative demand. In this study, we hypothesized that an elevated air movement (MOV) 24 h per day, during the whole period of leaf development would increase abscisic acid concentration ([ABA]) enhancing stomatal functioning. Pot rose 'Toril' was grow...
