Effects of collector types in sampling of atmospheric depositional fluxes

The bulk gross alpha, gross beta and ⁷Be depositional fluxes were measured in Málaga (36.7°N, 4.5°W), a coastal Mediterranean station in the south of Spain for one whole year. In order to quantify the local variation of deposition rates, we have analysed the monthly results from two deposition collectors: a “pot “collector with a continuous water-covered surface and a “funnel” collector. In general, the alpha and beta depositional fluxes from the funnel collector were approximately two times lower than the pot collector. Whereas for the cosmogenic ⁷Be, the depositional flux of ⁷Be from funnel collector was also approximately two times lower than the pot collector. A good correlation of the depositional flux of ⁷Be has been obtained from both collectors.     

Water immersion and flotation: From stress experiment to stress treatment

Evolving from the water immersion sensory deprivation techniques of the 1960s, tank flotation has recently become a popular recreational activity, with commercial manufacturers and facilities available in most major American cities. This paper reviews research using two versions of the technique, and evaluates the responses of 27 customers using one such commercial facility. These customers indicate relaxation and pleasant mood, findings that are compatible with popular treatments and other reports but differ widely from earlier stereotypes about the experience.     

Predicting preference for familiar,everyday objects: An experimental confrontation between two theories of aesthetic behaviour

The work reported compared the predictive ability of two theories of aesthetic behaviour, using normal, everyday objects. This involved utilizing simulated items of furniture in three experiments in which predictions deduced from the ‘collative-motivation’ model and what has been termed a ‘preference-for-prototypes’ model were made to compete empirically. For each of the five pairs of discrepant expectations formulated in the three experiments the outcomes were inconsistent with Berlyne's model, while supporting the prototypicality model. A number of theoretical implications are drawn from these findings.     

The ratio of clay content to total organic carbon content is a useful parameter to predict adsorption of the herbicide butachlor in soils

Thirteen soils collected from 11 provinces in eastern China were used to investigate the butachlor adsorption. The results indicated that the total organic carbon (TOC) content, clay content, amorphous Fe2O3 content, silt content, CEC, and pH had a combined effect on the butachlor sorption on soil. Combination of the data obtained from the 13 soils in the present study with other 23 soil samples reported by other researchers in the literature showed that Koc would be a poor predictive parameter for butachlor adsorption on soils with TOC content higher than 4.0% and lower than 0.2%. The soils with the ratio of clay content to TOC content (RCO) values less than 60 adsorbed butachlor mainly by the partition into soil organic matter matrix. The soils with RCO values higher than 60 apparently adsorbed butachlor by the combination of the partition into soil organic matter matrix and adsorption on clay surface.     

氧化亚铁硫杆菌和氧化硫硫杆菌对硫代硫酸钠的代谢机理研究

首先利用含硫的温泉水,经一系列培养、分离和纯化得到了氧化亚铁硫杆菌(T.f)和氧化硫硫杆菌(T.t).然后,将2种菌投加至一定浓度的硫代硫酸钠,观察2种菌在不同溶解氧浓度下的生长情况和溶液中各种硫化合物的浓度变化.结果表明,T.f利用硫代硫酸钠的速度比T.t快,生长周期也比T.t长,但单个T.f细胞的代谢能力较T.t差;T.f和T.t利用硫代硫酸钠的代谢产物主要为硫酸根离子、连四硫酸根离子、二氧化硫和单质硫.2种菌对硫代硫酸根离子的代谢主要通过4条途径进行.提高溶解氧浓度能显著加快2种菌对硫代硫酸钠的利用速度.
