Potential of Typha as Plant Candidates for Sludge Treatment Wetlands
-Phragmites austrailis have been commonly planted on sludge treatment wetlands due to its high resistance to sludge waste; thus sludge treatment wetlands are commonly referred to as “reed beds”. Phragmites’ aggressive nature and high productivity allow this invasive plant species to form monoculture stands, alter ecosystem processes, outcompete and replace native species. Thus, native alternati...
متن کاملThe Structure and Flexural Properties of Typha Leaves
The Typha leaf has a structure of lightweight cantilever beam, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties with low density. Especially, the leaf blade evolved high strength and low density with high porosity. In this paper, the structure of Typha leaf was characterized by microcomputed tomography (Micro-CT) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the relationship with flexural properties wa...
متن کاملStudies on the Population Dynamics of Typha at Lake Pukepuke
Harper (1977) has recently stressed the significance of the modular construction of plants. Plants respond to density not so much by changing the proportions of their parts, as by changing the number of basic modules of which they are composed. In the case of deciduous rhizomatous perennials, such as Typha orientalis, the basic module can be defined as a single above-ground shoot and its associ...
متن کاملChirality-dependent flutter of Typha blades in wind
Cattail or Typha, an emergent aquatic macrophyte widely distributed in lakes and other shallow water areas, has slender blades with a chiral morphology. The wind-resilient Typha blades can produce distinct hydraulic resistance for ecosystem functions. However, their stem may rupture and dislodge in excessive wind drag. In this paper, we combine fluid dynamics simulations and experimental measur...
متن کاملFibre cables in the lacunae of Typha leaves contribute to a tensegrity structure.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cables composed of long, non-lignified fibre cells enclosed in a cover of much shorter thin-walled, crystal-containing cells traverse the air chambers (lacunae) in leaves of the taller species of Typha. The non-lignified fibre cables are anchored in diaphragms composed of stellate cells of aerenchyma tissue that segment the long air chambers into smaller compartments. Althou...
