Forest Structural Complexity and Biomass Predict First-Year Carbon Cycling Responses to Disturbance Christopher M. Gough, Jeff W. Atkins, Ben Bond-Lamberty, Elizabeth A. Agee, Kalyn R. Dorheim, Robert ...

Forests in the eastern United States that are structurally complex — the arrangement of vegetation is varied throughout the physical space — sequester more carbon, according to a new study in Ecology, ...

Researchers are investigating ways to design structural materials that develop fewer, smaller flaws under irradiation. Radiation can harm spacecraft, nuclear power plants and high-energy accelerators.
