Abstract

A large amount data are brought from daily control, data collection and processing of FACE platform. A FACE system control, data collection and processing software package written in Visual BASIC including OLE to support office functions can finish the platform control, data collection, original data save and backup, daily data processing, monthly data processing and whole time FACE system control status analysis functions, so FACE system controllers can observe FACE system control status and keep control precision timely, and the researchers can get the data they want at any moment and convenient.

Foliar exchange of mercury as a function of soil and air mercury concentrations.

Previous research has indicated that foliar mercury (Hg) flux is bi-directional, with influence from both atmospheric and soil Hg. This work investigated the role of soil and air Hg concentrations on foliar Hg exchange using a single-plant gas-exchange system. The exchange of Hg vapor with aspen seedlings grown in soil Hg concentrations of 0.03+/-0.01, 5.8+/-0.5, and 12.3+/-1.3 microg g(-1) and exposed to atmospheric Hg concentrations of 2.4+/-0.5, 11.0+/-0.9, and 30.4+/-2.2 ng m(-3) was measured. At background atmospheric Hg concentrations of 2.4 ng m(-3), foliage released Hg at all three soil Hg concentrations and fluxes ranged from 1.6 to 5.5 ng/m(2)/h. At higher atmospheric Hg concentrations (>11 ng m(-3)), net deposition to foliage ranged from -9 to -47 ng/m(2)/h, exhibiting increase uptake with higher air Hg concentrations. Fluxes associated with aspen showed an immediate response to changes in atmospheric Hg concentrations. Compensation points, the air concentration where no net flux of Hg vapor occurred, were 3-4 ng m(-3) in the light and 2-3 ng m(-3) in the dark for trees grown in soils of 0.03 and 6 microg g(-1) Hg content, and 5-6 ng m(-3) in the light and 2.5-3.5 ng m(-3) in the dark for trees grown in 12 microg g(-1) Hg soils.

Perioperative thermal insulation: minimal clinically important differences?

BACKGROUND: Reduction of heat losses from the skin by thermal insulation is used to avoid perioperative hypothermia. However, there is little information about the physical properties of various insulating materials used in the operating room. METHODS: The following insulation materials were tested using a validated manikin: cotton surgical drape tested in two and four layers; Allegiance drape; 3M Steri-Drape; metallized plastic sheet; Thermadrape Barkey thermcare 1 tested in one and two layers; hospital duvet tested in one and two layers. Heat loss from the surface of the manikin can be described as: Q(*);= h.DeltaT.A where Q(*); is heat flux, h is the heat exchange coefficient, DeltaT is the temperature gradient between the environment and surface and A is the area covered. The heat flux per unit area (Q(*); A(-1)) and surface temperature were measured with nine calibrated heat-flux transducers. The environmental temperature was measured using a thermoanemometer. DeltaT was varied and h was determined by linear regression analysis as the slope of DeltaT vs Qdot; A(-1). The reciprocal of h defines the insulation. RESULTS: The insulation value of air was 0.61 Clo. The insulation values of the materials varied between 0.17 Clo (two layers of cotton surgical drapes) to 2.79 Clo (two layers of hospital duvet). CONCLUSIONS: There are relevant differences between various insulating materials. The best commercially available material designed for use in the operating room (Barkey thermcare 1) can reduce heat loss from the covered area by 45% when used in two layers. Given the range of insulating materials available for outdoor activities, significant improvement in insulation of patients in the operating room is both possible and desirable.

Effects of UV-visible irradiation on natural organic matter from the Amazon basin.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of UV-visible irradiation on organic carbon concentration, fluorescence intensity and metal transport ability of the natural organic matter (NOM) at fixed pH values and under several types of atmosphere (air, N(2), O(2)). The water samples were obtained from various sampling sites along the Rio Negro (Amazon basin) and the NOM metal transport ability was determined with regard to Cu(2+). As a first step we measured the concentration of total organic carbon (TOC) and its fluorescence intensity before and after an irradiation for a given time. The results demonstrated that when photodegradation happened, the dominant reactions involved O(2) and the fluorescent sites were among the first to be altered. Then we determined by spectrofluorometry the complexing capacity (C(L)) before and after irradiation. Fluorescence and complexing site densities (C(L)/TOC ratio) increased after a short irradiation time (20 min, i.e. before the photodegradation happened) and decreased after longer irradiation times. Therefore, we conclude that a change of the macromolecular structure activates previously inactive fluorophores and complexing sites prior to photodegradation.
