In this study, the sterilization effects of low pressure plasmas on bacteria-inoculated cotton fabrics were investigated. Oxygen plasma treatment completely sterilized the cotton fabrics inoculated with various concentrations of staphylococcus aureus. Also, the influence of plasma treatment on physical properties of fabrics was examined. It was found that the plasma treatment did not affect ultimate tensile strength and surface morphology of the fabrics because it took advantage of relatively low plasma temperature.展开更多

Results showed that high sand content(exceeding 80%) and porosity in the soil(exceeding 20% in A horizon and 35% in B horizon), as well as a thick humus layer on the soil surface, made the water exchange quickly in the Huangbengliu(HBL) watershed. Consequently, no surface runoff was observed, and the stream discharge changed rapidly with the daily precipitation. The flow trends of base ions in the stream water were influenced by the Abies fabri succession gradient. Ca 2+ , HCO - 3 and SO 2- 4 were the dominant anions in the streamwater in this region. A significant difference of Ca 2+ , HCO - 3 and SO 2- 4 concentration exported between the succession stages in the watershed can be found. But they had the similar temporal change in the stream flow. Ca 2+ , HCO - 3 and SO 2- 4 showed significantly negative correlations with the daily precipitation and the stream discharge. \;Concentrations of Cl -, Na +, K +, and Mg 2+ were low in all streamwaters monitored and we observed no differences along the Abies fabri succession gradient. Low ratios of Na:(Na+Ca) (range from 0.1 to 0.2) implied cations were from bedrock weathering(internal source process in the soil system) in this region. But, a variance analysis showed there were almost no differences between rainwater and streamwaters for Mg 2+ , Na +, K +, and Cl - concentrations. This indicated that they might be come from rainfall inputs(external source). The highly mobile capacity, rapid water exchange between precipitation and discharge, and long-term export lead to this observed pattern were suggested.展开更多

To understand water holding capacity of CWD in subalpine forest of southeast Tibet,CWD reserve of primitive A. fabri forest in Sygera Mountain was investigated by sample plot method,and water absorption and storage capacity of CWD was studied by using soaking method. The results showed that decay grade was positively related to water storage potential,that is to say,the higher the decay grade,the larger the water storage potential. Saturated water holding capacity,saturated water holding rate,effective water holding capacity and effective water holding rate of A. fabri CWD all rose with decay grade increased,and the order was Ⅴ>Ⅳ>Ⅲ>Ⅱ>Ⅰ. CWD reserve was 51.555 t/hm^2,and the maximum water storage capacity was 71.601 t/hm^2,while effective water storage capacity was 60.861 t/hm2,which was equivalent to 6.086 mm of rainfall.展开更多

The results showed that regenerated seedlings on fallen wood roughly showed normal distribution,and there were more regenerated seedlings in the middle of fallen wood,while regenerated seedlings were fewer at two ends. Fallen wood at level IV had the most regenerated seedlings,followed by level-III fallen wood,and regenerated seedlings were the fewest on fallen wood at level V. The number and species of regenerated seedling on and around fallen wood on the west slope were more than that on the east slope. With the improvement of decomposition level,regenerated seedling per unit area firstly increased and then decreased,but the number of regenerated seedling on and around fallen wood was far more than that in woodland.展开更多

The result showed that the litter amount under the overmature stand was the maximum(67 8?t·hm -2 ), the second was the mature stand(53 4 t·hm -2 ), the third was the half mature stand(40 4 t·hm -2 ), the fourth was the young stand(32 6?t·hm -2 ). The maximum water capacity of the undecomposed litter under the mature stand was 428 8% of the litter’s dry weight, that of the litter under the overmature stand was 411 6%, that of the litter under the half_mature stand was 378 8%, that of the litter under the young stand was 296 7%. The maximum water capacity of the half_decomposed litter under the mature stand was 234 5% of the litter’s dry weight, that of the litter under the overmature stand was 175 6%, that of the litter under the half mature stand was 160 3%, that of the litter under the young stand was 132 5%. The equation between the water absorption speed of the litter and the soaked time is S=kt n. The result also shows that the litter’s variation with the time has no relation to forest age, while its decomposition degree is positively related to stand age.展开更多
