桉材热处理及其渗透性能的改善

本文以高温软化和瞬时降压之方法对三种桉材（Ｅｕｃａｌｙｐｔｕｓ）进行了汽蒸热处理试验。结果表明：除赤桉（Ｅ·Ｃａｍａｌｄｕｌｅｎｓｉｓ）外，热处理后的桉材导管壁上纹孔膜出现了不同程度的破裂，甚至脱落为空洞。其渗透性能得到了较明显的改善。其中以１４０℃、５ｈ的热处理效果为佳。     

A split-root apparatus for examining the effects of hydraulic lift by trees on the water status of neighbouring crops

We describe a split-root system for examining the effects of hydraulic lift by trees on crop growth. In this system, upper lateral tree roots were grown in a container set on the ground through which the taproot of the tree could penetrate into the moist soil below. The container, with a radius of 0.5 m and a height of 0.20 m, consisted of two compartments divided by a waterproof barrier. A markhamia tree (Markhamia lutea (Benth.) Schumann) and upland rice (Oryza sativa (L.)) plants were planted in one compartment, with only rice plants planted in the other compartment. Irrigation of the container was ceased at the start of the experiment. The stomatal conductance of the rice plants in the associated side, in which both trees and rice plants were grown, declined more rapidly during the first drying period than in the rice-only compartment, suggesting that there was competition for water between the tree and the crop plants. However, during the later drying period, the rice plants in the associated side were green and viable, while those in the rice-only side became desiccated. Rice roots were seen intermingling with tree roots, and the soil water content in the associated site tended to be higher than in the rice-only side. It is likely that hydraulic lift occurred in the associated side and that water that had been transferred to the surface roots was released into the soil, enabling the rice plants in this compartment to remain viable. This novel system is useful for examination of the effects of hydraulic lift by trees on the growth of neighbouring crops.

用有限元法分析木材中的温度分布

在木材应用中,了解温度在木材中的分布情况,掌握木材在受热时的温度场,才能有效地控制解冻,才能对干燥和防腐问题进行深入的研究,才能合理使用建筑围护材料。近年来,随着计算机应用和计算技术的发展,用数值方法求解木材中的热传导问题将成为有效、实用的方法。在许多种数值方法中,有限差分法和有限元法是目前较为成熟和用得普遍的方法。其中的有限元法是对古典近似计算的归纳和总结,它吸取了有限差     

Comparative water use by dryland trees in Parklands in Senegal

Despite the clear evidence of competition for water between trees and crops, there have been very few studies comparing simultaneous water use by differing tree species in drylands. Comparative water use by dryland trees was measured in Senegal using heat balance gauges at the end of the wet season and in the dry season. Significant differences between tree species were found for maximum rates of water use per unit leaf area. Indigenous species may be better adapted to the dry environment than exotic species but the indigenous species Acacia seyal Del. used more water per unit leaf area than all other species. The exotic species Azadirachta indica Adr. Juss. consistently used less water per unit leaf area than most other species. There were significant differences in amounts of water used per unit leaf area by differing provenances of the same tree species. Water use in the dry season varied by a factor of three between two provenances of Acacia aneura F. Muell ex Benth. indicating potential to select provenances for drylands based on their water use characteristics. Absolute rates of water use as well as differences in sapflow between species were greatest when soils were moist suggesting that comparative sapflow studies will be most informative when carried out during the wet season. Water use rankings of the differing tree species were broadly maintained irrespective of season.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Effects of heat treatment on brittleness of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Styrax tonkinensis</Emphasis> wood

A new approach is proposed for the evaluation of the brittleness of heat-treated Styrax tonkinensis wood. Heat treatment made wood more brittle when wood was heated at a higher temperature or for a longer time. The brittleness increased to four times that of the control when wood was heated at 200°C for 12 h. For treatment at 160°C, the increase in brittleness without any change in weight is thought to be possibly caused by the relocation of lignin molecules. At higher temperatures, loss of amorphous polysaccharides due to degradation is thought to become the main factor affecting brittleness. The crystallites that were newly formed after 2 h of treatment showed brittleness that was different from that of the inherent crystallites remaining after 12 h of heat treatment. This inherent crystalline cellulose possibly plays a role in brittleness. There is also the possibility of using color to predict the brittleness of heat-treated wood.     

基于不同回收方法的肌浆蛋白对鲢鱼糜冻融稳定性的影响

为研究不同回收方法的肌浆蛋白对鲢鱼糜冻融稳定性的影响,分别通过加热法、酸偏移法和酸偏移-耦合壳聚糖絮凝法回收鲢鱼糜漂洗液中的肌浆蛋白,并将其添加至鱼糜中,测定鱼糜冻融循环过程中蛋白质冷冻变性、脂肪氧化及凝胶品质的指标。结果显示:添加不同方法回收的肌浆蛋白均能抑制鲢鱼糜冻融循环过程中盐溶性蛋白含量、Ca²⁺-ATPase活性和总巯基含量的下降以及表面疏水性的上升,其中加热法回收的肌浆蛋白抑制鱼糜蛋白质冷冻变性的效果最显著,经过9次冻融后仍能够对鱼糜蛋白质变性起到抑制效果。蛋白质羰基含量测定结果显示,肌浆蛋白的添加可以抑制鱼糜冻融循环过程中蛋白质氧化现象。而与空白组鱼糜相比,添加不同回收处理的肌浆蛋白的鱼糜,其硫代巴比妥酸值（TBARs）和pH值并没有显著变化。此外,随着冻融循环次数的增加,鱼糜凝胶品质会发生严重劣化,其中添加酸偏移-耦合壳聚糖絮凝处理的肌浆蛋白的鱼糜始终保持较好的凝胶质构性能。
