The influence of the physical environment on the self-organised foraging patterns of ants

Among social insects such as ants, scouts that modulate their recruiting behaviour, following simple rules based on local information, generate collective patterns of foraging. Here we demonstrate that features of the abiotic environment, specifically the foraging substrate, may also be influential in the emergence of group-level decisions such as the choice of one foraging path. Experimental data and theoretical analyses show that the collective patterns can arise independently of behavioural changes of individual scouts and can result, through self-organising processes, from the physico-chemical properties of the environment that alter the dynamics of information transfer by chemical trails.     

污水处理厂不同处理段水样的急性毒性和对MFO的诱导

利用化学耗氧量(COD)、色度、浊度等综合参数对Q67淡水发光菌(P.PhosphoreumQ67sp.)的急性毒性及对鲤鱼肝微粒体混合功能氧化酶芳烃羟化酶(AHH)和7-乙氧基试卤灵-脱乙基酶(EROD)的诱导来评价活性污泥法为主的城市污水处理效果.认为除利用常规的综合指标监测水体质量外,生物监测也是必不可少的.

氯化处理船舶压载水对外来生物存活的影响

初步研究了氯化处理船舶压载水对外业生物存活的影响。结果表明，氯化自理对杀灭中的细菌最为有效；对单细胞灌类则依种类需要不同浓度的有效氯，有的种类在４０ｍｇ／Ｌ有效氯作用下依然能存活。     

Teleskope und Detektoren für die Infrarot-Astronomie

Infrared observations with ground-based and balloon-borne telescopes are hampered by thermal background radiation and absorption caused by the earth's atmosphere. A sensitivity gain of up to three orders of magnitude can be obtained under the low photon background conditions of a helium-cooled space telescope. Physical properties of photodetectors and bolometers as well as their application to the new infrared telescopes aboard satellites and Spacelab are discussed.
