Age estimation of different tree species using a special kind of an electrically recording resistance drill

The determination of tree age is an important issue for urban green planning, forestry and dendrology; finding non-destructive and quasi-non-destructive methods for this purpose is of great theoretical and practical importance. The resistance drilling method is quasi-non-destructive because the average diameter of an opening that remains after drilling does not exceed 3 mm. Do electrically recording resistance drills allow precise assessment of tree age? The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy of determining the number of tree rings based on an examination of this special kind of drilling resistance profiles for three tree species, the pine Pinus sylvestris L., the oak Quercus robur L., and the birch Betula pendula ROTH. In 2015 and 2016, 15 pine trees, 15 oak trees, and 15 birch trees were randomly selected. For each studied tree, a measurement was conducted using the electrically recording resistance drill IML-Resi E400 with a flat-tipped 1.5/3 mm steel needle (research sample), and an increment core was taken (reference sample). The drill used was not a real Resistograph^®. The analysis of the E400-profiles underestimated the number of tree rings; the mean bias error (MBE) values were –6.5, –2.5, and –6.0 years for pine, oak, and birch, respectively. The proportion of investigated trees with less than five years difference between the research and reference samples varied from 38.4 (birch) to 66.7 (oak) percent. The accuracy of tree age determination was lowest for birch and highest for oak. The binomial generalised linear model (GLM) revealed that the most accurate tree age assessments were obtained from tree rings wider than 2 mm. The measurements clearly showed that the electrically recording resistance drill IML-Resi E400 enables a quick, although approximate, tree age assessment. Future research should concentrate on electronically regulating and recording drills, providing a higher spatial and signal resolution, and a stronger correlation to wood density.

硝酸稀土在优良牧草生产中的应用研究

稀土是牧草生产中一种重要的生长促进剂,在一定的有效浓度范围内对种子萌发、植株生长以及豆科牧草根瘤发育有明显的促进效果。通过以硝酸稀土(纯度为38％)为试验材料的研究表明,在河南省自然气候条件下,对禾草有效的稀土浓度为500 mg/kg,平均增产幅度为8.5％;对豆科牧草有效的稀土浓度为500-600mg/kg,平均增产幅度为8.8％,施用方法以浸种法最佳。

中国草鱼和泰国草鱼利用牧草作食饵的比较

通过对中国草鱼（Ｃｔｅｎｏｐｈａｒｙｎｇｏｄｏｎｉｄｅｌｌａ）和泰国草鱼（Ｐｕｎｔｉｕｓｇｏｎｉｏｎｏｔｕｓ）分别在常规的尼罗罗非鱼（Ｏｒｅｃｈｒｏｍｉｓ，ｎｉｌｏｔｉｃｕｓ）、鲤鱼（Ｃｙｐｒｉｎｕｓｃａｒｐｉｏ）和黑鱼（Ｃｈａｎｎａｓｔｒｉａｔａ）混养体系中养殖７个月，比较两者对牧草（Ｂｒａｃｈｉａｒｉａｍｕｔｉｃａ）的利用效果。试验结果表明，中国草鱼与泰国草鱼相比，无论是每尾体重，还是每尾体长、平均每尾日增重都有明显优势（Ｐ＜０．０５）．而且，放养３个月后，中国草鱼每尾体重和每尾日增重均极显著地优于泰国草鱼（Ｐ＜０．０１）．中国草鱼和泰国草鱼的年产量分别为２１８６ｋｇ／ｈｍ￣２，１２３３ｋｇ／ｈｍ￣２．中国草鱼的成活率比泰国草鱼低，两者分别为３８％和８６％。
