Response of Ecosystem Service Value Based on Land Use Changes and Analysis of its Driving Factors in Typical Hilly Region with Red Soil

The contribution rate of ecosystem service value variation was used to analyze the effects of land use changes on the changes of ecosystem service value in Xingguo County during 1996-2005.Grey integrated correlation was employed to explore the contribution level of the indicators such as total population,urbanization level,proportion of primary industry and investment of social fixed assets on ecosystem service value,and the correlation analysis was also carried out.The results showed that the ecosystem service value in Xingguo County during 1996-2005 mainly was woodland,and the decrease of woodland area was the major reason for the sustained reduction of ecosystem service value.With the further increase of market demand and the incentives of local government,the garden area rapidly increased during 2001-2005,and the influence degree of garden towards the changes of ecosystem service value was only second to woodland,ranking No.2.Four socio-economic indicators had different correlation degree with ecosystem service value during the different research periods.Total population,urbanization level and proportion of primary industry had high correlation degree with ecosystem service value,whereas the influence degree of various socio-economic indicators on ecosystem service value was equal with each other day by day.Urbanization level,investment of social fixed assets and total population had significant negative correlation with ecosystem service value,while the proportion of primary industry had positive correlation with ecosystem service value.

EFFECTIVE APPEARANCE MODEL FOR PROBABILISTIC OBJECT TRACKING

This paper presents a robust object tracking approach via a spatially constrained colour model. Local image patches of the object and spatial relation between these patches are informative and stable during object tracking. So, we propose to partition an object into patches and develop a Spatially Constrained Colour Model (SCCM) by combining the colour distributions and spatial configuration of these patches. The likelihood of the candidate object is given by estimating the confidences of the pixels in the candidate object region. The appearance model is learnt from the first frame and the tracking is carried out by particle filter. The experimental results show that the proposed tracking approach can accurately track the object with scale changes, pose variance and partial occlusion.

Impacts of Global Warming Perturbation on Water Resources in Arid Zone: Case Study of Kaidu River Basin in Northwest China

The main goal of this study was to assess the long-term impacts of global warming perturbation on water resources of the Kaidu River Basin in Northwest China. Temperature, precipitation and hydrology data during the past 29 years from 1979 to 2007 were collected and analyzed using parametric and non-parametric methods, the connection between temperature and precipitation by the combination of grey correlation analysis method and the hypothesis testing for trend of climate change. The results show a high increase in temperature in the study area as well as an extreme and highly variable hydrological regime in this region, where flash floods can exceed the total runoff from a sequence of years. These variations may be due to the geographical location of the Kaidu River Basin in arid zone. It also reveals that precipitation has a much greater impact on stream flow than that of temperature. The development of new approaches was proposed as responses to climate change in this arid region.

Effect of the Thickess on Color of Porcelain Laminate Veneer

Objective : To evaluate the color change of the two-layer porcelain laminate veneer after adding veneering porcelain of different thickness to the 0. 2 mm thick aluminum oxide. Methods : Ten aluminum oxide disks were randomized into 2 groups. Each of five disks was veneered with Vita Lumin Shade 54 porcelain of thickness 0/0.4 mm and 0. 6 mm respectively. The L'a'b* color notations of the substrate covered with nan-veneered disks and 2 thickness porcelain veneered disks were measured separately and the color differences (AE) were calculated. Results ?Statistically significant differences in color coordinates of dark substrates were recorded after the substrate was covered by an aluminum oxide disk and also after the addition of veneering porcelain to the aluminum oxide disks in group 1 (P=0. 000 2) and group 2(P=0. 007 5) and between 2 groups (P=0. 000 1). Conclusion -The ability of masking underlying discoloration was increased and shifted to gray when the thickness of veneering porcelain increased.

Retting of Musa sapientum Pseudostem with Pectin Decomposting Bacteria

The upper and lower portions of Musa sapientum pseudo-stem sheaths were exposed in four types of treatments： pectin decomposing bacteria, magnesium oxide （MgO）, both pectin decomposing bacteria and MgO and control. The fibre strength properties were tested using SIRIM Standard methods and colour changed using gray scale. The bioaugmentation of pectin decomposing bacteria together with MgO additions were found to enhance retting process and reduced retting periods 52% and yielded better strength on the fibres. The lower portion pseudo-stem sheaths gave the higher strength than upper portion. Colour changed showed that the bioaugmentation of pectin bacteria enhanced the degradation colouring compound in banana fibres.

Greenhouse Gases Trapping

Climate change is the main problem of mankind, especially because of it＇s increasing speed and by specialists＇ forecast the situation will become worse. Climatic changes are correlated with the degradation of biosphere. It is a question of saving life on authors planet. The authors should begin taking strong measures, else Earth has a chance to repeat the destiny of Mars and Venus, as some scientists are afraid of. So reasoning like ＂When will it be and will it be at all＂ is for lazy, careless and selfish people. Now, because of the industrial emission of greenhouse gases, the temperature of the atmosphere is growing, the climate is changing： sudden temperature differences, snowfalls where it used to be impossible, thickness of arctic ice decrease is about 40% （a great ice-hole has been found on the north pole）, repetition of droughts has increased in 8 times, power of hurricanes-2 times, increased power of floods. This is the result of lack of foresight, over-materialism and greediness, unwillingness to see the consequences because of the momentary advantages. How it is possible to trap CO2, SO2 and other gases？ Commercially gas purification at thermoelectric power stations, ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy plants, cement and chemical plants is being made with filters and cyclones that trap solid parts, and using different absorptive and adsorptive methods. Unfortunately at present there is no effective method of COE trapping.

Industrial Carbon Emissions Status and Analysis Based on Energy Consumption

With frequent disastrous weathers and increasingly prominent GHG effects in recent years, normal existence and development of mankind are facing unprecedented threats and challenges. GHG emissions mitigation for the global climate changes has been the focus of concern of the world. As the biggest developing country and the second largest country of carbon-emission, China attaches importance to the carbon emission reduction. The major GHG component is carbon dioxide and in China, the emis- sion of carbon dioxide is mainly from industrial production. In the paper, the status and trend of Coz emission from industrial departments, high-carbon emission and its specific industries are shown in statistics. Meanwhile, the policy environment, industrial organization structure and technology of carbon high emission are all discussed based on practical situations in these departments and industries. At the end, through the analysis of gray correlation, correlativity is explored for both fossil energy consumption and total carbon emission, and also for the production value and carbon emission of each industrial sector. Some policy proposals for the establishment of low-carbon industries and transition of economic development pattern are set forth.

The dynamics of color signals in male threespine sticklebacks Gasterosteus aculeatus

Body coloration and color patterns are ubiquitous throughout the animal kingdom and vary be- tween and within species. Recent studies have dealt with individual dynamics of various aspects of coloration, as it is in many cases a flexible trait and changes in color expression may be context-de- pendent. During the reproductive phase, temporal changes of coloration in the visible spectral range （400-700 nm） have been shown for many animals but corresponding changes in the ultravio- let （UV） waveband （300-400 nm） have rarely been studied. Threespine stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus males develop conspicuous orange-red breeding coloration combined with UV reflect- ance in the cheek region. We investigated dynamics of color patterns including UV throughout a male breeding cycle, as well as short-term changes in coloration in response to a computer- animated rival using reflectance spectrophotometry and visual modeling, to estimate how colors would be perceived by conspecifics. We found the orange-red component of coloration to vary during the breeding cycle with respect to hue （theta/R50） and intensity （achieved chroma/red chroma）. Furthermore, color intensity in the orange-red spectral part （achieved chroma） tended to be increased after the presentation of an artificial rival. Dynamic changes in specific measures of hue and intensity in the UV waveband were not found. In general, the orange-red component of the signal seems to be dynamic with respect to color intensity and hue. This accounts in particular for color changes during the breeding cycle, presumably to signal reproductive status, and with limitations as well in the intrasexual context, most likely to signal dominance or inferiority.

Design and synthesis by redox polymerization of a bio-based carboxylic elastomer for green tire

Poly(dibutyl itaconate-co-isoprene-co-methacrylic acid)(PDIM) elastomer was designed and synthesized by redox emulsion polymerization under mild conditions. PDIM has high molecular weight, relatively high yield, and low glass transition temperature(Tg). The structure of PDIM was determined by FTIR and NMR, and the carboxyl content was obtained by titration in a non-proton solvent. Tensile strength and elongation at break increased with increasing carboxyl content. In addition, the interaction between PDIM and silica was elucidated by rubber process analyzer(RPA) and TEM, and the results showed that the silica-PDIM interaction was strong, but the silica-silica interaction was weak.

Analysis of Generalized Ghost Dark Energy in LQC and Galileon Gravity

A so-called ghost dark energy was recently proposed to explain the present acceleration of the universe.The energy density of ghost dark energy,which originates from Veneziano ghost of Quantum Chromodynamics(QCD),in a time dependent background,can be written in the form,ρD=αH + βH^2 where H is the Hubble parameter.We investigate the generalized ghost dark energy(GGDE) model in the setup of loop quantum Cosmology(LQC) and Galileon Cosmology.We study the cosmological implications of the models.We also obtain the equation of state and the deceleration parameters and differential equations governing the evolution of this dark energy model for LQC and Galileon Cosmology.
