黑龙江依兰早第三纪植物群及古气侯分析

本文通过采于黑龙江依兰县达连河露天煤矿的早第三纪植物化石的全面深入研究，借助于叶形、脉形、细脉、角质层共鉴定出植物39科61属78种包括蕨类2种、裸子植物11种、单子叶植物2种、双子叶植物64种，其中有8个新种1个新组合。并通过与类似植物群的对比确定了植物群时代，对地层作了重新划分。 对A段早始新世的植物群分析显示出年均温13.2℃，年温差20℃，有效温度为13.77℃，植被应为常绿阔叶林或富热带性的暖温带常绿阔叶落叶阔叶混交林，沉积盆地为高山谷地。 对B段渐新世的植物群分析显示的古气候年均温11℃，年温差25℃，有效温度13.27℃。植被为暖温带常绿落叶阔叶混交林，沉积环境为狭长河流湖泊，两岸为山地。 通过以上古气候分析，对依兰地区的植物区系演变及温度变迁作了推测，并结合孢粉学、地层学、古昆虫等资料进行了古生态、古地形分析。对被子植物区系的形成演化进行了一些探讨，提出佳依地堑是北极第三系植物群向东南亚扩散迁移的重要通道，对中国植物区系的形成起着极其重要的作用，也是中国植物区系古老、丰富、复杂的原因之一。

The influence of tunnelling on piled foundations

A study of the influence of tunnelling on piled foundations was recently completed at the University of Cambridge. The study focussed on tunnelling near driven piles in dense sand and was carried out by means of centrifuge modelling. This paper presents a summary of the main findings, describing the mechanism controlling tunnelling-induced pile behaviour, a zone of influence around the tunnel where piles might be affected and recommendations for tunnelling near piles in practice. Both single piles and pile groups are considered.

Seasonal variations in stable isotope ratios of two biomanipulation fishes and seston in a large pen culture in hypereutrophic Meiliang Bay, Lake Taihu

This paper reports on seasonal changes in stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios of seston and muscle tissue of silver carp and bighead carp during 2004 and 2005, focusing primarily on the carbon sources and trophic relationships among phytoplankton, zooplankton and silver carp and bighead carp in a large fish pen of Meiliang Bay (Lake Taihu, China). delta C-13 showed a minimal value in March 2005 and a maximal value in August 2005 in seston both inside and outside the pen, whereas delta N-15 of seston showed the minimum in winter and the maximum during algal blooms. A positive correlation between delta C-13 of silver carp and that of seston suggested that temporal variation Of delta C-13 in seston was preserved in fish via the food chain. The differences of delta C-13 among seston, zooplankton and muscle tissue of silver carp and bighead carp ranged only 0.2-1.7%, indicating that plankton production was the primary food source of filter-feeding fishes. According to a mass balance model, we estimated that the contributions of zooplankton to the diets of silver carp and bighead carp were 45.7% and 54.3%, respectively, based on the delta N-15 values of zooplankton and planktivorous fishes.

Evaluation of soot particles of biomass fuels with endocrine-modulating activity in yeast-based bioassay

Exposure to indoor air pollution (IAP) from the combustion of biomass fuels is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. In the work discussed in this paper we evaluated the endocrine activity of soot particles from biomass fuels by using yeast bioassay. These pollutants could have beta-galactosidase activity with a relative potency (RP) about 10(-7)-10(-9) that of estradiol. Soot particles from wood and straw combustion only partially induced beta-galactosidase activity whereas others produced fully inductive activity in the yeast assay system. These pollutants did not have estrogen antagonist and progesterone agonist activity within the defined concentration range. However, these pollutants require 2-4 orders of magnitude higher IC50 to inhibit the activity of progesterone in a similar dose-response manner to mifepristone. We therefore propose that the endocrine activity of some environmental pollutants may be because of inhibition of the progesterone receptor (hPR). GC-MS results showed that substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds, substituted phenolic compounds and derivatives, aromatic carbonyl compounds, and phytosteroids in these soot particles may be mimicking endogenous hormones.

Vertical PIN ultraviolet photodetectors based on 4H-SiC homoepilayers

Vertical PIN ultraviolet photodetectors based on 4H-SiC homoepilayers are presented. The growth of the 4H-SiC homoepilayers was carried out in a LPCVD system. The size of the active area of the photodetector was 300 x 300 mu m(2). The dark and illuminated I-V characteristics were measured at reverse biases from 0 V to 30 V at room temperature. The illuminated current was at least two orders of magnitude higher than the dark current at a bias of below 12 V. The photoresponse was measured from 200 nm to 400 nm at different reverse biases and the peak values of the photo response were located at 3 10 nm. The calculated spectral detectivity D* was shown to be higher than 10(13) cmHz(1/2)/W from 260 to 360 nm with a peak value of 5.9 x 10(13) cmHz(1/2) /W at 310 nm. The peak value of the photoresponse was hundreds of times higher than the response at 400 nm, which showed the device had good visible blind performance. (c) 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
