Effect of weather conditions on the incidence of Lophodermium yellow needle blight in the dwarf mountain pine in the Karkonosze and Izerskie Mountains (Poland)

The study aimed to determine, by using a statistical model, the effect of weather conditions on the incidence of Lophodermium yellow needle blight causing by new species for science- Lophodermium corconticum, in the mountain dwarf pine growing in the subalpine Karkonosze Mountains and the Izerskie Mountains(Poland). Needles showed symptoms of yellow spots, gradual discolouration and premature fall in July. The assessment of healthiness of infected mountain dwarf pine needles spanned three years(2011- 2013) and was conducted in several test sites in the Karkonosze and Izerskie Mountains. The results were analyzed by taking into account the meteorological conditions. Field observations seem to indicate that the highest infestation of mountain dwarf pine occurs in June and July, while September and October see a significantly lower disease index in the Karkonosze Mountains. The lower indices of the infestation of mountain dwarf pine are characteristic for the vegetation in the Hala Izerska high mountain pasture; whereas the environmental conditions prevailing in the Kocio? Ma?ego Stawu cirque and above the Samotnia hostel are conducive to the development of Lophodermium yellow needle blight.

投影寻踪门限自回归模型在海洋冰情预测中的应用

为预测海洋冰情时序这类非线性动力系统，提出了投影寻踪门限自回归（PPTAR）模型。用自相关分析技术确定预测因子，构造了新的投影指标函数，用门限回归（TR）模型描述投影值与预测对象间的非线性关系，并用实码加速遣传算法优化投影指标函数和TR模型参数。实例的计算结果表明，用PPTAR模型预测海洋冰情时序是可行和有效的，PPTAR模型简便，适用性强，克服了目前投影寻踪方法计算量大，编程实现困难的缺点，有助于投影寻踪方法的推广应用。为解决非线性时序复杂预测问题提供了新的途径。

巷旁切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征的影响机制

巷旁切顶打断了巷道与采场下位顶板的连续性,促进了采场顶板垮落形成碎石帮,深入研究切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征的影响机制具有重要意义。对采场支架载荷进行了分析,并对上覆岩层建立了力学建模,明确了上覆岩层运动与典型位置采场支架载荷特征的关系。在此基础上,针对6个巷旁切顶的工作面,给出了典型位置支架的载荷数据,从而分析得到巷旁切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征的影响机制。同时,建立了数值模型,分析了不同的切顶起始位置和下位顶板强度对下位岩层垮落特征的影响。结果表明,121工法的“垮落线”具有对称的弧形边界,110工法的“垮落线”在切顶侧向工作面充分移动,N00工法介于上述两者之间。此外,不同切顶起始位置和顶板强度条件下,切顶的作用效果存在差异。研究结果有利于进一步深化巷旁切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征影响的认识。     

Eckfeld Maar: Window into an Eocene Terrestrial Habitat in Central Europe

<正>To mark the occasion of the 175th anniversary of the Rheinische Naturforschende Gesellschaft in 2009 and of the centennial of the Mainz Natural History Museum in 2010,we present a short account of our present knowledge of the Eckfeld Maar after 20 years of continuous research.This paper does not attempt to include all of the detailed results on the geology of the Eckfeld site or its biota.To date,nearly 250 papers and books have been published since the start of our project.An up-to-date list of these publications can be found at www.eckfeldermaar. de.     

Hydrogeochemistry and Water Quality Evaluation along the Flow Path in the Unconfined Aquifer of the Düzce Plain,North-western Turkey

The Düzce Plain has a multi-aquifer system, which consists of a near surface unconfined aquifer, along with first and second deeper confined aquifers. Hydrochemical evolution and water quality are related to infiltration of the precipitation, recharge from the formations surrounding the plain, flow path of groundwater and the relationship between surface and groundwater. The groundwater in the unconfined aquifer flows towards the Efteni Lake and the Büyük Melen River. Surface waters are divided into two main hydrochemical facies in the study area: (a) Ca2+–HCO3?; and (b) Ca2+, Mg2+–HCO3-, SO42-. The groundwater has generally three main hydrochemical facies: (a) Ca2+–HCO3-; (b) Ca2+, Mg2+–HCO3-; and (c) Ca2+, Mg2+–HCO3-, Cl-. The hydrochemical facies "a" and "b" dominate within shallow depths in recharge areas under rapid flow conditions, while hydrochemical facies "c" characterizes shallow and mixed groundwater, which dominate intermediate or discharge areas (near Efteni Lake and Büyük Melen River) during low flow conditions and agricultural contamination. Calcium and bicarbonate ions, total hardness and electrical conductivity of total dissolved solids (EC–TDS) values increase along the groundwater flow path; but these parameters remain within the limits specified by the standards set for industrial and agricultural usages.
