    Mountain birch

    In taxonomy nothing is fixed. If you validly publish a name and enough people accept it then that becomes the 'correct' name for now. If people (scientists) don't accept your proposition then it does not matter how valid you thought you were it is not going to be used. I have a very old cactus...

    Most plant species per square metre

    Can I chuck dandelions in to this argument. Britain and Ireland have either one variable species (Lumper) or circa two hundred and fifty species (Splitter). But where ever you toss your meter square you will probably still only record one species because the microspecies are rare or widespread...

    Nikon Z400 MM F/2.8 T/C S Lens on Z9 anyone..?

I always say its dead easy just plant your chosen seed look after it well then try and survive along with your plants for 60 to...

    Denoise time to complete

    My files are approximately 25 to 29 MB's and take less than a minute. In fact it probably takes me longer to choose which version to apply.
