    Charophyte Response to Herbicide and Mycoherbicide Applications

    No full text
    This thesis describes an investigation into the impacts on charophytes of four selected aquatic herbicide and a mycoherbicide products currently used or under development in New Zealand for alien invasive aquatic plant management. Of particular interest was the charophyte response with respect to oospore germination, germling susceptibility and species response. In New Zealand, charophytes are native submerged aquatic plants which are recognized as beneficial components of lake ecosystems. They form dense meadows on the lake sediment and are rapid colonisers as they are the first plant to recolonise a lake after a disturbance event. Charophytes produce oospores (seeds) which can remain dormant in seed banks until suitable germination conditions are met. New Zealand lake sediments contain a seed bank which is dominated by charophyte oospores. Alien invasive plants severely impact charophytes by rapidly forming tall, dense monospecific stands which can displace and completely replace the native vegetation. Chemical weed control in New Zealand is limited to two aquatic herbicides, diquat and endothall, which are currently registered for use on submerged aquatic weeds in lakes and waterways. Fluridone, which is widely used in the USA, is not currently registered for commercial use in New Zealand but has been used in several New Zealand studies. More recently, the development of a mycoherbicide, an inundative biological control, using a formulated naturally occurring aquatic fungus has been trialed in the USA and New Zealand. The effects of these four products on charophytes were investigated in this study. Chelated copper was included as a control, as it is known to control algae, including charophytes overseas. For this research, lake sediment was collected from three New Zealand lakes and combined to give one mixed seed bank material of known oospore density and composition. There were two types of charophyte experiments; germination experiments and germling experiments. Two germination experiments examined different scenarios for herbicide treatments under controlled temperature and light conditions. Oospores were either retained in sediment or directly exposed to treatment. Two germling experiments examined germling susceptibility to herbicide treatments under outdoor conditions as well as controlled temperature and light conditions. The second germling experiment included a known charophyte control treatment (chelated copper compound) and a known target invasive plant (Lagarosiphon major) control treatment for the herbicides. Herbicide treatment doses started at the maximum label rate and decreased in concentration across a dilution series. Results from this research indicate that oospore germination was not negatively impacted by any of the herbicide treatments or doses although some species-specific sensitivity was evident. However, further research into species sensitivity is required to ascertain if the sensitivity was due to herbicidal effects or a combination of naturally occurring factors and what the implications of sensitivity are for weed management. For the germling experiments no negative effects were observed for the duration of the study. These results have positive implications for field application of herbicides, indicating that the younger charophyte growth stages (oospores and germlings) were unaffected by the type of herbicide used at any potential field application rate

    Photoluminescence and excited states dynamics of Tm<sup>2+</sup>-doped CsCa(Cl/Br)<sub>3</sub> and CsCa(Br/I)<sub>3</sub> perovskites

    In this study, we systematically vary the Cl/Br and Br/I ratios in CsCaX3:Tm2+ (X = Cl, Br, I) and hereby gradually shift the positions of the Tm2+ 4f125d1-levels as relative to the two 4f13 levels. At low temperatures up to five distinct Tm2+ 4f125d1→4f13 emissions and the 4f13→4f13 emission can be observed. As the temperature increases, most of the 4f125d1→4f13 emissions undergo quenching via multi-phonon relaxation (MPR) and at room temperature only the lowest energy 4f125d1→4f13 and the 4f13→4f13 emission remains. For all compositions a 4f13→4f13 risetime phenomenon is then observed whose duration matches the 4f125d1→4f13 decay time. It shows the feeding of the 4f13 state after 4f125d1 excitation. Surprisingly, the feeding time becomes longer from Cl→Br→I, while the related 4f125d1-4f13 energy gap becomes smaller. The temperature dependence of the 4f125d1→4f13 and 4f13→4f13 emission intensity shows a anticorrelation as earlier observed in other systems and confirms that the feeding process is thermally stimulated. However, the thermally stimulated activation energies that control the feeding process, increase from Cl→Br→I despite our observation that the 4f125d1-4f13 energy gap becomes smaller. An analysis reveals that the unexpected behaviour in risetime and activation energy, as a function of composition, cannot be explained by 4f125d1→4f13 feeding via interband crossing, but more likely via MPR where the electron–phonon coupling strength decreases from Cl→Br→I. No strong relation was found between composition and the quantum efficiency (QE) of the 4f13→4f13 emission, due to the presence of fluctuations that are likely caused by intrinsic differences in sample quality. Nevertheless, a 4f13→4f13 QE of up to 70% has been observed and the materials can therefore be used in luminescence solar concentrators.RST/Luminescence MaterialsChemE/O&O groe

    The synthesis of monodisperse alkanes with long chains

    No full text
    This thesis discusses reasons for the interest in monodisperse long chain alkanes and describes attempts, past and present, to synthesise such molecules. Chapter 1 discusses why the synthesis of such molecules are important and the objectives of this project. Chapter 2 reviews the methods previous groups have devised to prepare pure samples of long chain alkanes. In particular, work carried out by Whiting et al. at Bristol, whose scheme formed the basis of the early work in Durham. Chapter 3 describes the work in Durham and improvements which were made to Whiting's method, allowing the synthesis of longer chain lengths and greater quantities of materials to be achieved. Chapter 4 provides a summary of the practical work carried out by the author. Chapter 5 gives experimental details of the work described in Chapter 4

    No full text
    Paper given at AusGrid2005, Australian Computer Society Workshop (ACSW Frontiers '05), 3 February 2005.The development of Grid middleware, such as the Globus Toolkit version 2, reached a level of maturity and stability in which it was possible to create widely distributed resource Grids. Within the last few years various experiences have arisen from the construction of such Grids and so called "testbeds". The purpose of this paper is to highlight some of the problems, propose some simple solutions, and to report on the development of prototype implementations. The focus of this paper is on solutions that can be coordinated using an information system representing Virtual Organisations. In the process of this research two achievements have been outlined: the development of a tool for authentication management and resource configuration; and the development of a prototype job queueing service.Paper Reference:Lyle J.

Tax has a very important role in the life of the state, including in development because taxes are a source of state income to finance all expenses including development expenditure. In this study, we will compare the least squares method, trend moment method and semi-average method to find out the amount of tax received by Deli Serdang regency government in 2019-2020. The aim is to find out the best method for forecasting the amount of tax in Deli Serdang district and knowing the accuracy of the least squares method, the trend moment method and the semi-average method in forecasting tax amounts. Based on the research conducted by the author, when compared to the least squares method, the trend moment method and the semi-average method can be concluded that the least squares method is better than the trend moment method and the semi-average method. So that by using the least squares method, forecasting can be done simply and produce more accurate output. The accuracy of the least squares method for forecasting with the value of RMSE 22.125.394.311 and MAPE 0.19% is very good when compared with the trend moment method for forecasting with the value of RMSE 22.125.411.090 and MAPE 0.28% and the semi-average method for forecasting with values RMSE 295,117,831,369 and MAPE 47.04%.58 HalamanKertas Karya Diplom

    Het in september 2012 afgeronde ‘Onderzoek Aanpak Vochtproblematiek zwaar regenbelast historisch metselwerk gemetseld in kalkmortels’, beoogde de kennisleemten op te vullen die bij een eerder verkennende onderzoek naar de ernstige vochtproblematiek bij bakstenen molenrompen (onderzoek 2000-2002), waren vastgesteld. Deze problemen bleken zich niet tot molens te beperken en zo werd de scoop verbreed tot al het zwaar regenbelaste historische massief metselwerk, voor zover gemetseld in kalkmortels (ca. 1300 – 1850), zoals kastelen en kasteelruïnes, kerktorens, molens, pakhuizen, stadspoorten etc. Het onderzoeksproject werd uitgevoerd door dr ir C.J.W.P.Groot en J.Gunneweg van de faculteit Civiele Techniek & Geowetenschappen van de TU Delft. Het ging van start in 2003, omvatte 11 deelonderzoeken, gefinancierd in 3 clusters en werd afgerond, september 2012. De resultaten zijn vastgelegd in de hierboven vermelde reeks onderzoeksrapporten, bouwstenen voor een richtlijn en de syllabus van een in 2007 gehouden studiedag. Ook zijn uit dit onderzoek voortgekomen een aantal artikelen in wetenschappelijke tijdschriften en populair wetenschappelijke artikelen in vakbladen.
