The Cassini Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer (INMS) has obtained the first in situ composition measurements of the neutral densities of molecular nitrogen, methane, molecular hydrogen, argon, and a host of stable carbon-nitrile compounds in Titan's upper atmosphere. INMS in situ mass spectrometry has also provided evidence for atmospheric waves in the upper atmosphere and the first direct measurements of isotopes of nitrogen, carbon, and argon, which reveal interesting clues about the evolution of the atmosphere. The bulk composition and thermal structure of the moon's upper atmosphere do not appear to have changed considerably since the Voyager 1 flyby.  相似文献   

Contribution of stream channel erosion to sediment yield from an urbanizing watershed   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

SW Trimble 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1997,278(5342):1442-1444

Stream channel erosion has long been suspected as the major contributor to long-term sediment yield from urbanizing watersheds. For San Diego Creek in southern California, measurements from 1983 to 1993 showed that stream channel erosion furnished 10(5) megagrams per year of sediment, or about two-thirds of the total sediment yield. Thus, because channel erosion can be a major source of sediment yield from urbanizing areas, channel stabilization should be a priority in managing sediment yield.  相似文献   

From micro- to nanofabrication with soft materials     

Quake SR  Scherer A 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》2000,290(5496):1536-1540

Soft materials are finding applications in areas ranging from microfluidic device technology to nanofabrication. We review recent work in these areas, discuss the motivation for device fabrication with soft materials, and describe applications of soft materials. In particular, we discuss active microfluidic devices for cell sorting and biochemical assays, replication-molded optics with subdiffraction limit features, and nanometer-scale resonators and wires formed from single-molecule DNA templates as examples of how the special properties of soft materials address outstanding problems in device fabrication.  相似文献   

Pesticide knowledge and risk perception among adolescent Latino farmworkers     

McCauley LA  Sticker D  Bryan C  Lasarev MR  Scherer JA 《Journal of agricultural safety and health》2002,8(4):397-409

A substantial proportion of the agricultural production in the U.S. is dependent on the labor of Latino farmworkers. While exact figures are not known, it is estimated that adolescents make up 7% of this valuable workforce. These young workers may be at increased risk for the toxic effects of environmental exposures encountered during their work. Furthermore, language barriers and health beliefs may influence the risk perceptions of this population. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of migrant adolescent farmworkers in 1998 to investigate their work practices, health beliefs, and pesticide knowledge. The large majority of the adolescents in our sample were from Mexico, and 36.3% spoke primarily indigenous languages. Many of the adolescents (64.7%) were traveling and working in the U.S. independent of their parents. Few of the adolescents reported having received pesticide training; however, 21.6% of the sample reported that their current work involved mixing and/or applying agricultural chemicals. The scores on the pesticide knowledge questionnaire were found to significantly predict self-reported use of protection for adolescent farmworkers. The results of this study point to a need for improved pesticide training in youth agricultural workers and specialized education efforts directed toward minorities who speak indigenous dialects. Special attention is merited toward adolescent farmworkers who report that their work includes mixing or applying agricultural chemicals. As the number of adolescent farmworkers increases in the U.S. and the characteristics of the migrant stream continue to change, culturally and developmentally appropriate instruments are needed to adequately assess the health beliefs and protective practices of this population.  相似文献   

Einfluß von Stroh und Nitrapyrin auf den verfügbaren Stickstoff im Boden,den Ertrag und den Stickstoffentzug von Lolium multiflorum

Effect of straw and nitrapyrin application on the nitrogen availability in the soil and the yield and nitrogen uptake of Lolium multiflorum. In pot experiments the effect of straw and nitrapyrin application on the turn-over of fertilizer NH and on the nitrogen availability in the soil was investigated. The investigation comprised two sections: an incubation experiment in which straw and nitrapyrin together with NH-N were incorporated into a brown podsolic soil and a subsequent pot experiment with ryegrass. Nitrapyrin inhibited the nitrification and reduced the nitrogen loss of the soil. Compared with the treatments without nitrapyrin application, nitrapyrin resulted in a lower dry matter yield and in a lower nitrogen uptake of the ryegrass. Straw application reduced the nitrate content in the soil significantly. This effect was particulary evident in the treatments which did not receive nitrapyrin. Accordingly, nitrogen uptake and yield of ryegrass were significantly lower in the ‘straw treatments’ as compared with the treatments without straw. It is suggested that the impared nitrogen availability in the ‘straw treatments’ was mainly due to nitrogen losses caused by denitrification.  相似文献   

Umsatz von 15N markiertem Nitratstickstoff im Boden in Abhängigkeit von Strohdüngung und Bodenfeuchte

Turnover of ¹⁵N labelled nitrate nitrogen in soil as related to straw application and soil moisture In incubation experiments the effect of straw application on the turnover of ¹⁵N labelled nitrate has been studied at two soil moisture levels (brown podzolic soil). High ¹⁵N losses were found at the high soil moisture level. These losses are supposed to originate from denitrification. At both soil moisture levels straw application reduced significantly the ¹⁵N losses. Straw application resulted in a remarkable decrease of the ¹⁵NO₃ content in the soil and promoted the incorporation of ¹⁵N into the organic soil fraction. The incorporation of ¹⁵N into α-amino N and particularly into the rest hydrolyzable-N fraction was favoured by straw, while the incorporation into the amide-N fraction was hampered. Exhaustive cropping (Lolium multiflorum and Sinapis alba) on the soil incubated before with ¹⁵N, showed that the ¹⁵N incorporated into the organic fraction was poorly available. Thus straw application resulted in significant yield depression. It is assumed that the fraction of the rest hydrolyzable N is hardly available to plants.  相似文献   

The structure of the upper atmosphere of mars: In situ accelerometer measurements from mars global surveyor   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) z-axis accelerometer has obtained over 200 vertical structures of thermospheric density, temperature, and pressure, ranging from 110 to 170 kilometers, compared to only three previous such vertical structures. In November 1997, a regional dust storm in the Southern Hemisphere triggered an unexpectedly large thermospheric response at mid-northern latitudes, increasing the altitude of thermospheric pressure surfaces there by as much as 8 kilometers and indicating a strong global thermospheric response to a regional dust storm. Throughout the MGS mission, thermospheric density bulges have been detected on opposite sides of the planet near 90 degreesE and 90 degreesW, in the vicinity of maximum terrain heights. This wave 2 pattern may be caused by topographically-forced planetary waves propagating up from the lower atmosphere.  相似文献   

Factor VII deficiency in a mixed breed dog.          下载免费PDF全文

Abnormal bleeding following routine orchectomy of a 5-month-old mixed breed was determined to be due to factor VII deficiency. Although pedigree information was unavailable, failure to respond to vitamin K therapy and the absence of a plasma coagulation inhibitor suggested that the factor VII deficiency was likely inherited rather than acquired.  相似文献   

NDVI-based estimates of evapotranspiration of winter wheat indicate positive effects of N fertilizer application on agronomic water-use efficiency     

Philipp Drerup  Holger Brueck  Dejene Eticha  Heinrich W. Scherer 《Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science》2020,206(1):1-12

Yield increases by fertilizer application impose higher crop water use, as biomass production is positively correlated with transpiration. To quantify effects of N fertilizer supply on evapotranspiration (ET) of winter wheat, a field experiment with three nitrogen rates (N0, N120 and N230) under non-water-limited conditions was performed during 2014 and 2015. Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) was used to derive crop coefficients which were used to calculate N effects on bare soil evaporation (E), transpiration, evapotranspiration (ET), grain yield and harvest index (HI). E during the early post-winter growth period was measured with micro-lysimeters and compared with model estimates. N fertilizer supply resulted in lower cumulative E, and increases in grain yield were higher than increases in ET, resulting in a higher agronomic water-use efficiency (WUE_Y). HI of treatment N120 was higher than that of treatment N230 indicating that HI was not the main reason of higher WUE_Y of treatment N230. It is concluded that estimates of ET under variable N supply require consideration of N-induced effects on canopy development which could be successfully monitored by NDVI measurements. N supply increases ET and WUE_Y potentially imposing a trade-off between water conservation and efficiency of water use for crop production.  相似文献
