The present study examined how species-specific attributes of the invasive alga Codium fragile ssp. fragile (hereafter Codium) and eelgrass Zostera marina influenced faunal assemblages associated with eelgrass ecosystems in îles de la Madeleine, eastern Canada. Direct association of species with Codium (<1 m) was evaluated and compared to eelgrass faunal assemblages from invaded beds. Potential...

Methane concentrations in the pore waters of Eckernförde Bay in the German Baltic Sea generally reach gas bubble saturation values within the upper meter of the sediment column. The depth at which saturation occurs is controlled by a balance between rates of methane production, consumption (oxidation), and transport. The relative importance of anaerobic methane oxidation (AMO) in controlling di...

-In this paper a three-phase model (liquid, solid and gas) of the mushy zone for investigation of porosity formation in solidifying castings is developed. This model takes into account the release of the dissolved gas from the alloy as well as heat transfer and interdendritic fluid flow in the mushy zone. An important aspect of this work is related to accounting for the term describing porosity...

Effective gas management is vital to the success of the longwall mining in the Bulli seam, in the Southern Coalfield, Sydney Basin, NSW, Australia. The evolution of gas drainage methods and practices are discussed with respect to gas type, gas drainage lead time and prevailing geological conditions. Both underground to inseam drilling and surface to inseam drilling techniques are described at b...

Depending on the desulfurization reaction temperature, it can be divided into fly ash generated at hightemperature furnace zone and at low-temperature flue gas zone. For simulating those two kinds of desulfurization ash, the ordinary fly ash mixed with different weight percentage of CaSO4·2H2O is divided into 2 groups, the first group is followed by calcining at 900°C, another drying at 100°C. ...

The aims of this study were (i) to describe the relative intensity of simulated tennis play based on the cumulative time spent in three metabolic intensity zones, and (ii) to determine the relationships between this play intensity distribution and the aerobic fitness of a group of competitive players. 20 male players of advanced to elite level (ITN) performed an incremental on-court specific en...

An accurately evaluate about the zone number and position of the gas zone is put forward in this paper. It provides the reliable basis for developing natural gas through synthetically analyzing the result of carrying on wavelet de-noising and wavelet package denoising disposal simultaneously to the density porosity curve and neutron porosity curve. If there is natural gas in the void of undergr...

The objective of this study was to get more information about the root zone, mainly the gas composition in substrates, which are used in closed hydroponic systems. For analyses of carbon dioxide (CO2), ethylene (C2H4) and oxygen (O2) different methods were proved and used. For analyses of carbon dioxide and ethylene, a gas sampling system was used to get gas samples from the root zone. CO2 gas ...
