Sinopse
Welcome to the GCB Bioenergy iTunes Channel. GCB Bioenergy exists to promote understanding of the interface between biological sciences and the production of fuels directly from plants, algae and waste. Papers published in the journal frequently look at the wider implications, such as on the economy, policy, ecosystem services, biodiversity and global change. This channel will feature podcasts related to some of the papers.
