A three-dimensional OC model including basilar membrane (BM), tectorial membrane (TM), inner and outer hair cells (OHCs), and reticular lamina (RL) is established by COMSOL. An initial pressure is applied to the fluid in the TC. The frequency response of the structure is analyzed, and the displacement of the BM is achieved. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data, confirming validity of the finite element model. Based on the model, the effect of fluid in the TC on the OC is studied. The results show that, when the pressure gradient is absent in the fluid, with the increase of the initial fluid pressure, the displacement of the BM increases. However, when the initial fluid pressure increases to a certain value, the increase rate of the displacement of the BM becomes very slow. The movement of the fluid amplifies the BM movement. Furthermore, the movement of the fluid can strengthen the movement of the OHCs and the shear movement of the stereocilia, especially in the vicinity of the characteristic frequency at which the amplification effect reaches a peak. Nevertheless, a pressure gradient in the fluid affects the BM movement.展开更多

The re- sults showed that he absorption coefficient aCDOM(440) ranged from 0.37 m-1 to 3.93 m-1 with an average of 1.89 ± 0.76 m-1 (±SD) for the aggregated dataset, and S varied from 0.0048 nm -1 to 0.0239 nm-1 with an average of 0.0108 ±0.0040 nmI. A significant relation- ship between S and aCDOM(440) can be fitted with a power equation (S = 0.013 × aCDOM(440)-0.42, R2 = 0.612), excluding data from Geist Reservoir during high flow (12 April 2010) and the Morse Reservoir on 25 June 2010 due to a T-storm achieves even higher determina- tion coefficient (R2 = 0.842). Correlation analysis indicated that aCDOM(440) has strong association with inorganic suspended matter (ISM) concentration (0.231 〈 R2 〈 0.786) for each of the field surveys, and this trend followed the aggregated datasets (R2 = 0.447, p 〈 0.001). In contrast, chlorophyll-a was only correlated with aCDOM(440) in summer and autumn (0.081 〈 R2 〈 0.763), indicating that CDOM is mainly from terrigenous sources in early spring and that phytoplankton contributed during the algal blooming season. The S value was used to characterize CDOM origin. The results indicate that the CDOM source is mainly controlled by hydrological varia- tions, while phytoplankton originated organic matter also closely linked with CDOM dynamics in three productive reservoirs.展开更多

Using the variational principle, a displacement analytical expression is solved under a certain pressure. The results are in good agreement with experimental data, showing the validity of the formula. Combined with the damage caused by noise in clinic, it is found that the hardening of outer hair cells and outer stereocilia can lead to loss of hearing and generation of threshold shift. In addition, the results show that high frequency resonance occurs at the bottom of the basilar membrane (BM), and low frequency resonance occurs at the top of the BM. This confirms the frequency selective characteristics of the BM. Further, using this formula can avoid interference of the envi- ronment and the technical level of the test personnel, and can evaluate performance of the OC objectively.展开更多

Treatments included spring and autumn applications of CTSM and ADSM at a 1x rate (10,000 and 7150 L·ha-1, respectively) applied each year, a 3x rate (30,000 and 21,450 L·ha-1, respectively) applied once at the beginning of the experiment, plus a treatment receiving commercial fertilizer (UAN at 60 kg·N·ha-1·yr-1) and a zero-N control. There was no effect of swine manure rate, type and application time on soil pH. Mass of TOC and TON in the 15 cm soil layer increased significantly with swine manure application compared to the control, mainly at the Swift Current site, with greater increases from 3x rate than 1x rate (by 2.21 Mg·C·ha-1 and 0.167 Mg·N·ha-1). Compared to the control, mass of LFOC and LFON in the 15 cm soil layer increased with swine manure application at sites, with greater increases from 3x rate than 1x rate (by 287 kg·C·ha-1 and 26 kg·N·ha-1 at Star City, and by 194 kg·C·ha-1 and 19·kg·N ha-1 at Swift Current). Mass of TOC and TON in soil layer was tended to be greater with ADSM than CTSM, but mass of LFOC and LFON in soil was greater with CTSM than ADSM. Mass of TOC, TON, LFOC and LFON in soil also increased with annual N fertilizer application compared to the control (by 3.2 Mg·C·ha-1 for TOC, 0.195 Mg·N·ha-1 for TON, 708 kg·C·ha-1 for LFOC and 45 kg·N·ha-1 for LFON). In conclusion, our findings suggest that the quantity and quality of organic C and N in soil can be affected by swine manure rate and type, and N fertilization even after three years, most likely by influencing inputs of C and N through crop residue, and improve soil quality.展开更多
