A concentração de cloro em fôlhas de café

O presente trabalho relata os dados obtidos referentes à concentração de cloro em folhas de cafeeiro, adubado com cloreto de potássio. As folhas (3º ou 4º par) foram colhidas de diversos tratamentos de um experimento NPK + micronutrientes do tipo fatorial, que vem sendo conduzido pelo Instituto Agronômico em sua estação experimental em Campinas. Foram analisadas as folhas procedentes dos tratamentos: K0, isto é, tratamento em que não entrou o KC1; K1, isto é, tratamento em que entrou uma dose de potássio, 100 g de K2O, na forma de KC1; K2, isto é, 200 g de K2O na forma de KC1; e K3, isto é, 400 g de K2O. Os resultados obtidos confirmaram o elevado teor de cloro, já assinalado em trabalhos anteriores, acusando uma variação de 709 a 1112 ppm, com a média de 843,3 ± 134,3 ppm de cloro nas folhas procedentes dos canteiros do tratamento K0; uma variação de 3938 a 5149 ppm, com a média de 4476,0 ± 356,4 ppm de cloro nas folhas do tratamento K1 (100g de K 0); uma variação de 2726 a 6763 ppm, com a média de 4812,0 ± 670,7 ppm de cloro nas fôlhas do tratamento K2 (200 g de K 0); e uma variação de 4341 a 7974 ppm, com a média de 5149,0 ± 570,7 ppm de cloro, nas fôlhas do tratamento K3 (400 g de K2O). Outros trabalhos estão sendo conduzidos com o objetivo de estudar a variação do teor de cloro nas folhas do cafeeiro, relacionando-a com outros fatores.

Determinação do teor total e do teor solúvel, em diversas soluções, do cobre do solo

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo o estudo de métodos e técnicas de determinação do teor total e do teor solúvel, em diversas soluções extratoras, do cobre do solo, Foram utilizados cinco diferentes solos do Estado de São Paulo e as determinações foram feitas pelo método colorimétrico do dietilditiocarbamato de sódio (DDC-Na). Para a determinação do teor total de cobre, os extratos dos solos foram preparados através de ataque de 250 mg de solo com os ácidos HClO4 e HF, 0 teor de cobre total encontrado oscilou de 23 a 126 ppm, para os cinco solos estudados. Quanto ao teor de cobre solúvel, foram empregados como extratores, soluções de HCl 0,05 N e 0,10 N, de EDTA dissódico a 1% e de CH3COOH 0,10 N. As extrações com as soluções de HCl foram conduzidas por agitação de 2,5 e 5,0 g de solo por 50 ml de solução, com a duração de 10, 15 e 30 minutos. Os teores de cobre solubilizado oscilaram de 0,5 a 14,6 ppm, com HCl 0,10 N e de 0,3 a 10,2 ppm, com HCl 0,05 N. Os extratos em soluções de EDTA dissódico e CH3COOH foram obtidos a partir de 5,0 g de solo por 50 ml de solução, agitando também 10, 15 e 30 minutos. Os teores de cobre solubilizado variaram de 0,8 a 15,0 ppm, com solução de EDTA, e de 0,0 a 0,5 ppm, com solução de CH3COOH.

Generalized backward doubly stochastic differential equations and SPDEs with nonlinear Neumann boundary conditions

In this paper, a new class of generalized backward doubly stochastic differential equations is investigated. This class involves an integral with respect to an adapted continuous increasing process. A probabilistic representation for viscosity solutions of semi-linear stochastic partial differential equations with a Neumann boundary condition is given.

The black-white test score gap widens with age?

We re-examine the theoretical concept of a production function for cognitive achievement, and argue that an indirect production function that depends upon the variables that constrain parents' choices is both moretractable from an econometric point of view, and more interesting from an economic point of view than is a direct production function that depends upon a detailed list of direct inputs such as number of books in the household. We estimate flexible econometric models of indirect production functions for two achievement measures from the Woodcock-Johnson Revised battery, using data from two waves of the Child Development Supplement to the PSID. Elasticities of achievement measures with respect to family income and parents' educational levels are positive and significant. Gaps between scores of black and white children narrow or remain constant as children grow older, a result that differs from previous findings in the literature. The elasticities of achievement scores with respect to family income are substantially higher for children of black families, and there are some notable difference in elasticities with respect to parents' educational levels across blacks and whites.

Factors associated with 24-hour urinary volume: the Swiss salt survey.

BACKGROUND: Low 24-hour urine volume (24 UV) may be a significant risk factor for decline in kidney function. We therefore aimed to study associated markers and possible determinants of 24 UV in a sample of the Swiss population. METHODS: The cross-sectional Swiss Salt Study included a population-based sample of 1535 (746 men and 789 women) individuals from three linguistic regions of Switzerland. Data from 1300 subjects were available for the present analysis. 24 UV was measured using 24-hour urine collection. Determinants of 24 UV were identified using multivariable linear regression models. RESULTS: In bivariate analysis, 24 UV was higher in women compared to men (2000 ml/24 h [interquartile range (IQR): 1354, 2562] versus 1780 ml/24 h [IQR: 1244, 2360], p = 0.002). In multivariable regression analyses, independent associated markers of 24 UV were female sex (β = 280, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 174, 386, p < 0.0001), fluid intake (β = 604, 95% CI: 539, 670, p < 0.0001), sodium excretion (β = 4.2, 95% CI: 3.4, 4.9, p < 0.0001) age (β = 6.6, CI: 3.4, 9.7, p < .0001), creatinine clearance (β = 2.4, CI: 0.2, 4.6, p = 0.04), living in the German-speaking part of Switzerland (β = 124, CI: 29, 219, p = 0.01), alcohol consumption (β = 41, CI: 9, 73, p = 0.01 for increasing categories of alcohol consumption), body mass index (β = -32, CI: -45, -18, p < 0.0001), current smoking (β = -146, CI: -265, -26, p = 0.02), and consumption of meat and cold cut (β = -56, CI: -108, -5, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: In this large population-based, cross-sectional study, we found several strong and independent correlates for 24 UV. These findings may be important to improve our understanding in the development of chronic kidney disease.

Estimating the Impact on Efficiency of the Adoption of a Voluntary Environmental Standard: An Empirical Study of the Global Copper Mining Industry

This paper uses data on the world's copper mining industry to measure the impact on efficiency of the adoption of the ISO 14001 environmental standard. Anecdotal and case study literature suggests that firms are motivated to adopt this standard so as to achieve greater efficiency through changes in operating procedures and processes. Using plant level panel data from 1992-2007 on most of the world's industrial copper mines, the study uses stochastic frontier methods to investigate the effects of ISO adoption. The variety of models used in this study find that adoption either tends to improve efficiency or has no impact on efficiency, but no evidence is found that ISO adoption decreases efficiency.
