This experiment investigated the relationship between tobacco canopy spectral characteristics and tobacco biomass. A completely randomized design, with plantings on the 15th of September, October, November, and December, each with 9 variety × fertiliser management treatments, was used. Starting from 6 weeks after planting, reflectance measurements were taken from one row, using a multispectral radiometer. Individual plants from the other 3 rows were also measured, and the above ground whole plants were harvested and dried for reflectance/dry mass regression analysis. The central row was harvested, cured, and weighed. Both the maximum NDVI and mass at untying declined with later planting and so was the mass-NDVI coefficient of determination. The best fitting curves for the yield-NDVI correlations were quadratic. September reflectance values from the October crop reflectance were statistically similar (P>0.05), while those for the November and the December crops were significantly different (P<0.05) from the former two. Mass at untying and NDVI showed a quadratic relationship in all the three tested varieties. The optimum stage for collecting spectral data for tobacco yield estimation was the 8–12 weeks after planting. The results could be useful in accurate monitoring of crop development patterns for yield forecasting purposes.

Silica is widely available in nature including the ones in the form of crystal granule, gel and colloid. Silica is known to have a higher boiling point than other materials. The production of silica gel from rice husk ash has a characteristic in the amount of silicone level which depends on its heating time during extraction. This research aims at increasing production of silicone element in rice husk ash extraction method using kalium hydroxide (KOH), with heating time variation during its solution, namely between 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes. With an observation using EDS, the relationship of heating time toward the silicone level on the resulted material can be discovered. The 15-minute heating time contains the highest silicone level compared to the 30, 45 or even 60-minute heating time.

Abstract A series of grape juices and concentrates were diluted with Macllvaine’s buffer at pH levels ranging from 2 to 8 and analyzed spectrophotometrically. The relationship of various Concord and California grape juice samples from different geographical areas were characterized individually and in combination. The spectral characteristics of Concord and Salvador grape juice were found to be similar except at pH 7, where the Concord curve has two peaks (583 and 450 mμ) and the Salvador curve has only one. The anthocyanin components in Concord grape juice were studied chromatographically for an explanation of its unique spectral response at pH 7. Results are incomplete, and further study is recommended.

AbstractSolubility of bismuth in liquid Bi-S based free cutting steel was measured using a vapor-liquid equilibration method at 1540–1600 °C, and the recovery rate of bismuth in the steel with different temperatures under an atmospheric pressure was also measured. The results showed that the solubility of bismuth in liquid Bi-S based free cutting steel from experiment under a constant volume at 1540, 1560, 1580, and 1600 °C were 0.174, 0.181, 0.205, and 0.220 mass%, respectively, and the relationship of bismuth solubility vs. temperature could be expressed as lg[%Bi] = −6049/T + 2.572. Meanwhile, the solubility of bismuth increased with the increase of Mn content, but decreased with the increase of C content. The recovery of bismuth in this experiment reached a maximum when the temperature was at bismuth boiling point or so, and then it was decreased with the increase of temperature when the temperature was above 1560 °C, which might be attributed to the accelerating of bismuth evaporation that were caused by the increase of bismuth equilibrium partial pressure above the surface of the molten steel with increasing temperature.

AbstractDuring the course of the study it involved tool steel C105U was used. The steel was austempered at temperatures of 130°C, 160°C and 180°C respectively. Methods of acoustic emission (AE) were used to investigate the resulting effects associated with transformations and a large number of AE events were registered. Neural networks were applied to analyse these phenomena. In the tested signal, three groups of events were identified of: high, medium and low energy. The average spectral characteristics enabled the power of the signal spectrum to be determined. After completing the process, the results were compiled in the form of diagrams of the relationship of the AE incidence frequency as a function of time. Based on the results, it was found that in the austempering of tool steel, in the first stage of transformation midrib morphology is formed. Midrib is a twinned thin plate martensite. In the 2nd stage of transformation, the intensity of the generation of medium energy events indicates the occurrence of bainite initialised by martensite. The obtained graphic of AE characteristics of tool steel austempering allow conclusions to be drawn about the kinetics and the mechanism of this transformation.

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.

Echinodermata is a phylum of marine invertebrates which has been extant since Cambrian time (c.a. 500 m.y. before the present). Modern examples of echinoderms include sea urchins, sea stars, and sea lilies (crinoids). The endoskeletons of echinoderms are composed of plates or ossicles (Fig. 1) which are with few exceptions, porous, single crystals of high-magnesian calcite. Despite their single crystal nature, fracture surfaces do not exhibit the near-perfect {10.4} cleavage characteristic of inorganic calcite. This paradoxical mix of biogenic and inorganic features has prompted much recent work on echinoderm skeletal crystallography. Furthermore, fossil echinoderm hard parts comprise a volumetrically significant portion of some marine limestones sequences. The ultrastructural and microchemical characterization of modern skeletal material should lend insight into: 1). The nature of the biogenic processes involved, for example, the relationship of Mg heterogeneity to morphological and structural features in modern echinoderm material, and 2). The nature of the diagenetic changes undergone by their ancient, fossilized counterparts. In this study, high resolution TEM (HRTEM), high voltage TEM (HVTEM), and STEM microanalysis are used to characterize tha ultrastructural and microchemical composition of skeletal elements of the modern crinoid Neocrinus blakei.
