Effects of natural forest conversion and plantation tree species composition on soil macrofauna communities in Northeast China mountains

As primary and secondary forests are being replaced by plantations across the globe,the soil macrofauna community structure is also affected,but little is known about the impact of mixed culture plantations compared with monocultures on the soil macrofauna.To determine the impact of forest conversion on soil macrofauna,we surveyed the soil macrofauna in two broad-leaved and three coniferous monoculture stands and four coniferous-broadleaved mixed stands,and in adjacent reserved secondary stands as a reference.Soil macro fauna community composition was significant affected by forest type,season and their interaction(P<0.05).The abundance,taxa richness and diversity of soil macro fauna changed to different degrees depending on the plantation type.Broadleaved monoculture stands and secondary stands had similar macrofauna abundance and taxa richness,but values were lower in coniferous stands than in secondary stands.The Shannon index for macrofauna in coniferous stands was also the lowest,but the Pielou index did not differ between forest types.The negative effects of the conifer monoculture on soil macro fauna were not present in the mixed stands with broad-leaved trees.Forest conversion impacted soil properties;soil moisture,NO_(3)^(-),and pH were significant drivers of soil macrofauna community structure.The impact of forest conversion on soil macrofauna was closely dependent on tree species composition and diversity.The macro fauna community structure in the broadleaved and the mixed stands were relatively similar to that in the natural forest,and thus recommended for forest conversion in the study area.

Does tree species composition control the soil carbon stocks of the Hyrcanian forest in the Northern Iran?(A case study in Guilan province,Iran)

This work studied the effects of tree species composition on soil carbon storage in five mixed stands dominated by oriental beech and grown in the western Caspian region in Guilan province, called Astara, Asalem, Fuman, Chere and Shenrud. The thickness of the litter layer, soil characteristics, tree composition and percentage of canopy coverage were measured in each stand. Total soil organic carbon differed significantly by stand. Total （organic） carbon stores at Fuman, which had the lowest tree species richness with 2 species and least canopy coverage （75%）, were significantly （p〈0.05） higher than at other locations. Carbon stor-age in topsoil （0-10 cm） was significantly lower in Shenrud, which had the highest tree species richness with 5 species and highest canopy cov-erage （95%）. The high percentage of canopy coverage in Shenrud proba-bly limited the conversion of litter to humus. However, in the second soil layer （10-25 cm）, Asalem, with high tree species richness and canopy coverage, had the highest carbon storage. This can be explained by the different rooting patterns of different tree species. In the Hyrcanian forest. According to the results, it can be concluded that not only tree composi-tion but also canopy coverage percentage should be taken under consid-eration to manage soil carbon retention and release.

Theoretical Prediction of Strength of Composite with Fractal-tree Structure Fibers

Theoretically;the strength of composite with branched fibers is predicted to be greater than that of composite with plain fibers.The effects of the branching angle of the fiber,and the snubbing friction between the fiber and the matrix at the fiber branching point and the branching step's number of the fiber on the strength of the composite with branched fibers have been studied.It has been shown that the strength of the composite increases with branching angle,the snubbing friction and the branching step's number.

Defects Recognition of 3D Braided Composite Based on Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Packet Transform

Textile-reinforced composites,due to their excellent highstrength-to-low-mass ratio, provide promising alternatives to conventional structural materials in many high-tech sectors. 3D braided composites are a kind of advanced composites reinforced with 3D braided fabrics; the complex nature of 3D braided composites makes the evaluation of the quality of the product very difficult. In this investigation,a defect recognition platform for 3D braided composites evaluation was constructed based on dual-tree complex wavelet packet transform( DT-CWPT) and backpropagation( BP) neural networks. The defects in 3D braided composite materials were probed and detected by an ultrasonic sensing system. DT-CWPT method was used to analyze the ultrasonic scanning pulse signals,and the feature vectors of these signals were extracted into the BP neural networks as samples. The type of defects was identified and recognized with the characteristic ultrasonic wave spectra. The position of defects for the test samples can be determined at the same time. This method would have great potential to evaluate the quality of 3D braided composites.

QoS-oriented service composition based on mapping relation tree

Service composition is a hot and active research area in service-oriented computing which has gained great momentum. An quality of service (QoS) oriented and tree-based approach was proposed to implement service composition efficiently. Firstly, service descriptions were transformed to mapping relations which denote the association between input and output concepts. Then, the service composition problems were resolved by building mapping relation tree dynamically based on the divide and conquer method, and all mapping relation trees were combined without redundant branch to obtain the composition scheme. Finally, the optimal composition scheme was chosen based on quality of service attributes including the preference of service request. Experiment results illustrate that this method can improve the composition efficiency and reduce the searching time by increasing the number of services in repository.

Effects of Whole-Tree Harvesting on Species Composition of Tree and Understory Communities in a Northern Hardwood Forest

In the northeastern United States, whole-tree harvesting is widely used to supply fuel to biomass energy facilities, but questions remain regarding its long-term sustainability. We have previously reported findings indicating no short-term decrease in forest productivity in whole-tree harvested sites when compared with similar conventionally (stem-only) harvested sites. Here we present additional results of the same study, but focus on the effect harvest treatment has on the species composition of the regenerating forest. Within northern hardwood forests in central New Hampshire and western Maine, regeneration surveys were conducted on four (4) small clearcuts in 2010 and twenty-nine (29) small clearcuts in 2011. The species and diameter of trees > 2 m in height were recorded within 1 m or 2 m-radius plots and used to calculate the biomass fraction of each species. The 2010 study additionally measured the density of trees 2 m in height and the diversity of understory non-tree species. Non-metric multidimensional scaling and multi-response permutation procedures were used to determine the effect of harvest treatment had on community-wide tree species composition. Potential differences were also examined on a species-by-species basis. Both analytic methods indicated no significant differences in species composition of tree species or understory communities. Within the limits of our data, we conclude that no significant effects of residue removal on species composition are observed within our sample of northern hardwood sites at this early stage of stand development.

交变载荷下绝缘拉杆用GFRP电树枝劣化特性

气体绝缘组合电器(gas insulated switchgear,GIS)现场调试或运行过程多次发生绝缘拉杆内部击穿问题,影响工程投运与设备可靠性,迫切需要探明故障机理。该文选取GIS断路器绝缘拉杆用玻璃纤维增强环氧树脂复合材料(glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin composite,GFRP)为研究对象,通过计算分、合闸下绝缘拉杆主应力分布特性,设置交变载荷下电树枝劣化实验条件,研究不同交变载荷对GFRP内电树枝生长特性影响规律。结果表明,相较于单一载荷,交变载荷条件下GFRP中电树枝生长速度加快,平均击穿时间降低,击穿概率增大。基于复合材料力学仿真发现交变载荷下GFRP内树脂-纤维界面处会出现较大的应力集中,局部应力损伤已达到失效的临界值。综上,交变载荷下绝缘拉杆纤维-树脂界面机械损伤与绝缘劣化交互演进是造成绝缘击穿的主要原因,也可作为试验考核与结构设计的改进依据。

基于GBDT-LSTM的闽江流域水质预测

闽江作为福建省最大的河流,其生态保护对维护全省水生态环境而言意义重大。为进一步利用水质评价和预测方法对水质状况进行有效分析,选取闽江流域2017年1月-2023年8月共20处水质监测站数据作为研究对象,采用水质综合指数法对各站点水质状态进行判断;比较LSTM模型和GBDT-LSTM模型的拟合结果,并对各指标数据进行预测。结果表明,1)闽江流域各监测点除总氮外的水质指标均呈现较好趋势,各监测点的总氮浓度存在差异,整体情况较差,其中位于三明和南平市的河段由于当地重工业发达,导致水体中的硝态氮不断增加,进而致使河段内总氮浓度过高。2)流域水质的WQI值呈现逐年上升的趋势,水质状况普遍处于中等及以上水平,仅有少数监测点的水质状况处于很差状态,从中上游携带的泥沙等固体的堆积导致了连江琯头的水质情况较差;沙县斑竹溪渡口由于位于三明和南平的交界处,且沿岸分布较多重工业城市,故水质状态略差;相较于南平和三明的大型重工业企业,位于古田县的监测点以农业、轻工业为主,对水质指标的影响相对较小,水质状况因此较好。3)采用GBDT对变异程度较高的各水质指标在预测模型中的重要性进行排序,发现GBDT-LSTM混合模型的拟合效果相较于LSTM模型更好,更有利于对水质状况进行精确地预测。4)水体中总氮、高锰酸盐指数等含量的不断增加主要源于大量的工业废水,建议加强对临近闽江流域高污染高排放企业的控制,科学合理地实现工业污染排放和污染物容量在时空上的合理分配。

Impact of mining on tree diversity of the silica mining forest area at Shankargarh, Allahabad, India

The Shankargarh forest area is rich in silica, a major mineral used in glass industry. Extensive open cast silica mining has severely damaged the forest as well as productivity of the region. An understand- ing of the impact of mining on the environment particularly on vegetation characteristics is a prerequisite for further management of these mining sites, especially in the selection of species for reclamation works. The present paper deals with the study of the tree composition of silica mining area of Shgankargarh forest, at both disturbed and undisturbed sites. Tree vegetation study was conducted at undisturbed and disturbed sites of Shankargarh forests using standard quadrate method. Density, abundance and frequency values of tree species were calculated. Species were categorized into different classes according to their frequency. The importance value index （IVI） for each species was determined. Species diversity, Concentration of dominance, Species richness and Evenness index were calculated for the undisturbed and disturbed siteS. The distribution pattern of the species was studied by using Whifford＇s index. Similarity index between tree composition of disturbed and undisturbed sites was determined by using Jaccard＇s and Sorenson＇s index of similar- ity. Tree species showed a drastic reduction in their numbers in disturbed sites compared to that of the undisturbed sites. The phytosociological indices also illustrated the impact of mining on the tree composition of the area. The present study led to the conclusion that resultant tree vegetation analysis can be used as important tool for predicting the suitability of particular species for revegetating the mined areas.

松阔混交对侵蚀退化地土壤有机碳和微生物群落结构的影响

树种是调控森林土壤有机碳(SOC)积累的重要因子。为明确树种变化对红壤侵蚀退化地表层SOC积累的影响,采用配对实验设计,选择不同恢复年限的马尾松纯林和马尾松+木荷混交林(19和39 a)为研究对象,对比分析表层(0~10 cm)SOC质量分数的差异,并利用相关性分析与结构方程模型探讨其与凋落物特征、土壤氮素水平和微生物群落组成的关系。结果表明:1)恢复19 a的纯林和混交林SOC质量分数无显著差异,而恢复39 a混交林SOC质量分数较恢复19 a纯林、恢复19 a混交林以及恢复39 a纯林分别高39.8%、48.0%和93.6%(P<0.05);2)SOC质量分数与土壤微生物生物量碳、土壤微生物生物量氮、磷脂脂肪酸总量、矿质氮和细菌呈显著或极显著正相关,与凋落物C/N和真菌细菌之比(F/B)呈显著或极显著负相关;3)结构方程模型分析表明,凋落物C/N是松阔混交后表层SOC质量分数变化的触发因子,矿质氮是微生物群落结构变化的关键因子。凋落物C/N可直接驱动SOC质量分数的变化(-0.35*),或通过矿质氮(-0.70***)诱导F/B、丛枝菌根真菌和细菌的变化起间接调控作用,以上因子共解释SOC质量分数变异的86.8%。综上,松阔混交促进侵蚀退化地SOC的积累,且其有效性随恢复年限增强。这个过程主要通过提升凋落物质量、增加微生物养分来源和土壤氮有效性、改变微生物群落结构完成。在我国实施“双碳”战略的背景下,多树种混交对红壤区退化马尾松林SOC提升具有重要意义。

Information About Low Cloud Amount Recorded in δ^(13)C Series of Tree Ring Cellulose of Pinus Koraiensis in Antu Area, Jilin

Relationship between the δ 13C of tree ring cellulose from Pinus Koraiensis and climate parameters was investigated. A significantly negative correlation between δ 13C and mean low-cloud amount from May to July was discovered, which contributes to reconstructing the mean low-cloud amount from May to July at Antu in recent 200 years. Periodicals of quasi-8-year, quasi-4-year and quasi-2-year were detected both in δ 13C series and in the reconstructed low cloud amount series with 95% confidence level. Quasi-8-year period may reflect the integrated influence of solar activity, monsoon activity and local regional factors. Quasi-4-year and quasi-2-year periods indicate the influences of ENSO and Quasi Biennial Oscillation (QBO) of East Asian monsoon, respectively.

Elaboration and Characterization of Composite Materials Reinforced by Papaya Trunk Fibers (<i>Carica papaya</i>) and Particles of the Hulls of the Kernels of the Winged Fruits (<i>Canarium schweinfurthii</i>) with Polyester Matrix

In this work we determine the physical and mechanical properties of local composites reinforced with papaya trunk fibers (FTP) on one hand and particles of the hulls of the kernels of the garlic (PCNFA) in the other hand. The samples are produced according to BSI 2782 standards;by combining fibers and untreated to polyester matrix following the contact molding method. We notice that the long fibers of papaya trunks improve the tensile/compression characteristics of composites by 45.44% compared to pure polyester;while the short fibers improve the flexural strength of composites by 62.30% compared to pure polyester. Furthermore, adding fibers decreases the density of the final composite material and the rate of water absorption increases with the size of the fibers. As regards composite materials with particle reinforcement from the cores of the winged fruits, the particle size (fine ≤ 800 μm and large ≤ 1.6 mm) has no influence on the Young’s modulus and on the rate of water absorption. On the other hand, fine particles improve the flexural strength of composite materials by 53.08% compared to pure polyester;fine particles increase the density by 19% compared to the density of pure polyester.

Community ecology and spatial distribution of trees in a tropical wet evergreen forest in Kaptai national park in Chittagong Hill Tracts, Bangladesh

We investigated the floristic composition, woody species diversity and spatial distribution of trees in a tropical wet evergreen forest in Kaptai national park in Chittagong Hill Tracks, Bangladesh. We recorded 25 families, 37 genera, 40 species and 1771 woody individuals in a 0.09 ha plot. Euphorbiaceae and Moraceae were the most species- rich families, and Castanopsis, Ficus and Terminaliawere the most species-rich genera. Bursera serrata Wall. ex Colebr. was the dominant species in terms of highest importance value （13%）. Trema orientalis （L.） B1 was typically a light demanding species as it appeared in the top can- opy with only one individual having the seventh highest IV, but had no regeneration. The expected maximum number of species （Smax） was 140, indicating that many species may invade the forest as the Sm~ is greater than the recorded total number of species. The nature of the disappear- ance and appearance of species in the present forest reflects instability of floristic composition. The values of Shannon＇s index H＇ and Pielou＇s index J＇ （evenness） were 3.36 bit and 0.63, respectively. These values show moderately high species diversity as compared to other subtropical forests in the tropics. In addition, a sample area of 200 m2 in this forest would be sufficient for measuring the diversity indices H＂ and ,/＇, whereas the trend of J＇may indicate the rate of equality of individuals among the different species decreased with increasing area. The distribu- tion pattern for the total stand was completely random. However, the dominant species showed aggregate distribution for small areas, but random distribution for large areas. The spatial association between species showed that the strongest positive interspecific association occurred between Streblus asper Lour. and Castanea indica Roxh. （09 = 0.51）. As a whole, most species were weakly associated with each other, of which 58% species associations were completely negative. The result of cluster analysis showed that species pairs were spatially independent at all or most small clusters; stands of species from all clusters are mosa- ics of complete habitat and pioneer habitat. All patches in this forest community have similar habitat and regeneration niches, which could be a phenomenon for a young growth forest. Thus, the existence of habitat and regeneration niches may be an important factor in the maintenance of diversity in this forest.
