Relationship between abundance of rodents and damage to agricultural crops

Developing a relationship between pest abundance and damage to crops is essential for the calculation of economic injury levels (EIL) leading to informed management decisions. The crop modelling framework, APSIM, was used to simulate the impact of mouse damage on yield loss on wheat where a long-term dataset on the density of mice was available (1983–2003). The model was calibrated using results from field trials where wheat plants were hand clipped to imitate mouse damage. The grazing effect of mice was estimated using the population density, daily intake per mouse and the proportion of wheat grain and plant tissue in the diet to determine yield loss. The mean yield loss caused by mice was 12.4% (±5.4S.E.; range −0.5 to 96%). There were 7/21 years when yield loss was >5%. A damage/abundance relationship was constructed and a sigmoidal curve explained 97% of variation when accounting for different trajectories of mouse densities from sowing to harvest. The majority of damage occurred around emergence of the crop when mouse densities were >100 mice ha⁻¹. This is the first time that field data on mouse density and a crop simulation model have been combined to estimate yield loss. The model examines the efficacy of baiting and how to estimate EILs. Because the broadscale application of zinc phosphide is cheap and effective, the EIL is very low (<1% yield loss). The APSIM model is highly flexible and could be used for other vertebrate pests in a range of crops or pastures to develop density/damage relationships and to assist with management.

中─高级变质相中水热流体的形成与作用

固体地壳中流体是普遍存在的，中—高级变质相中的矿物并非只发生晶体塑性变形，溶解和溶移作用在非糜棱岩化岩石中占主导地位，因为高温高压环境下存在的水热流体，在变质变形作用中起着至关重要的作用。在周围分布有网络状进进剪切带的递进缩短带中，与应交梯度有直接关系的单个矿物的位错密度梯度在其晶体边缘形成，产生了化学位梯度，从而使矿物边缘发生溶解。变形分解作用是产生这一过程的动力，并为流体汇聚形成水热循环系统提供了空间。
