正激波后OH A~2∑~+──X~2∏瞬态光谱的测量

用光学多道分析仪（OMA光学系统）测量了氢氧燃烧驱动激波管中典型状态下正激波后高温空气不同时刻的瞬态光谱。光谱结果显示高温空气的光谱中有很强的OHA2∑＋─X2∏光谱。通过采用线线合成光谱的方法得到激波后不同时刻高温空气中OH分子的转动温度。

OH在火焰中浓度分布图像及与温度关系的PLIF和CARS研究

用平面激光诱导荧光(PLIF)技术测量了平面火焰炉、狭缝火焰炉的单脉冲激光诱导OH荧光。由平面荧光图可得到氢氧基相对浓度分布和它的宽度。对扩散火焰，高温区在OH带内侧；OH带的外侧则是火焰的边界，相干反斯托克斯拉曼光谱(CARS)的测量结果对此提出了有力的佐证。湍流火焰的PLIF图则清晰地显示出火焰面的不规则性。氢氧基的PLIF图像是研究火焰结构和流场的有力工具。

Helping ourselves: the role of self-help groups in poverty alleviation through aquaculture

Self-help groups (SHGs) are ways for farmers and fishers, especially those who are poor, to come together and work together. They can be a useful entry point for outsiders, promote a supportive local environment, strengthen voices in decision-making and in negotiations with more powerful forces, increase the effectiveness of local actions, and provide easier access to micro-credit and other resources and services. This case study describes a rural aquaculture development context, in India, the development of SHGs and the concept of a ‘one-stop aqua shop’, set up and run by a federation of self-help groups in Kaipara village, West Bengal (a pilot state along with Jharkhand and Orissa). It outlines testing new ways to share information, as part of a series of revised procedures and institutional arrangements for service delivery recommended by farmers and fishers and prioritized by government, with support from the Department of International Development, London (DFID) Natural Resources Support Programme (NRSP) and the Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia-Pacific (NACA) to the Support to Regional Aquatic Resources Management (STREAM) Initiative (10 p.)

The Kaipara story: a closer look at the benefits of working together, the evolution of a federation of aquaculture self-help groups and a one-stop aqua shop in rural West Bengal

What is special about Kaipara is that most recently, they have founded a federation of Self-Help Groups that work together to develop their own support network and to draw in the support of others. This is a sophisticated ‘home-grown’ support infrastructure that is the subject of this story. (Pdf contains 8 pages).
