Turfs and timbers

چکیده
Viking Age ring fortresses were some of the largest construction projects in Danish prehistory. In this article we reconstruct amount turf and timber used Borgring fortress estimate resource area needed to supply building materials. Using REVEALS pollen data modelling, quantify regional oak land cover area. The results show that even though was built an open cultural landscape, sufficient for would have been accessible within a few kilometres from fortress.

TURFS in the lab : Institutional Innovation in Real - Time Dynamic
Using a real-time, spatial, renewable resource environment, we observe participants in a set of experiments formulating informal rules during communication sessions over three decision rounds. In all three rounds, the resource is open access. Without communication, the resource is persistently and rapidly depleted.With face-to-face communication, we observe informal arrangements to divide up sp...
متن کاملShiver me timbers: pulsatile contractility in model tissues.
C ells self-assemble and differentiate to form functional structures. This theme is ubiquitous throughout multicellular life and happens all along an organism’s lifespan, from embryogenesis to tissue maintenance in a mature adult. Understanding how cells interact to form functional structures is a fundamental challenge in biology and biophysics; characterizing and targeting interactions such th...
متن کاملSubtropical urban turfs: Carbon and nitrogen pools and the role of enzyme activity.
Urban grasslands not only provide a recreational venue for urban residents, but also sequester organic carbon in vegetation and soils through photosynthesis, and release carbon dioxide through respiration, which largely contribute to carbon storage and fluxes at regional and global scales. We investigated organic carbon and nitrogen pools in subtropical turfs and found that dissolved organic ca...
متن کاملA kinematic analysis of the spine during rugby scrummaging on natural and synthetic turfs
Artificial surfaces are now an established alternative to grass (natural) surfaces in rugby union. Little is known, however, about their potential to reduce injury. This study characterises the spinal kinematics of rugby union hookers during scrummaging on third-generation synthetic (3G) and natural pitches. The spine was sectioned into five segments, with inertial sensors providing three-dimen...
متن کاملMovement and Persistence of Chloropicrin, Vapam, and Methylisothiocyanate in Untreated Southern Pine and Douglas-Fir Timbers
Methylisothiocyanate The fumigants were introduced into 2.54-cm-diameter holes at timber midlength. Fumigants diffused throughout the cross-sectional area of both southern pine and Douglas-fir. The brownand white-rot fungi generally showed similar tolerance to the fumigants. Chloropicrin killed most fungal cultures in both tim bers 0.30 in from the treatment centerline (CL) within 1 week after...
