The calculated results show the oscillation feature of dI/dV-V curves and the semiconductor behavior of DNA. With the relative humidity increasing, the voltage gap becomes narrow and the maximum of conductance increases nonlinearly. The conductivity of DNA approaches to stabilization when the relative humidity reaches a certain value. These results are in agreement with experimental measurements.展开更多

The results showed that when bulk density, moisture content, and electrolyte concentration were constant, the diffusion coefficients of cations were in the order Na+> K+> Ca2+ except for Na+ and K+ in latosol, while the order for anions was NO3- > Cl-. The diffusion coefficients (Di) of cations and anions were linearly proportional to volumetric moisture content (θ) as electrolyte concentration and bulk density were unchanged. When moisture content and bulk density were constant, the diffusion coefficients of cations decreased, to varying extents, with the increase of electrolyte concentration, and the decrement in different soils followed the order yellow-brown earth > red soil > latosol, but the decrement order of different cations was Na+> K+ > Ca2+.展开更多

This paper focuses on the basic principle of TDR technology and its application in Caijiachuan watershed, the Loess Plateau, China, the composition and structure of a set of TDR-TRIME. The installation, measurement and calibration of TRJME-TDR in the Loess Plateau has been introduced. The factors that can influence the veracity of the measurement by TDR have also been analyzed in the article.展开更多
