Background: Wooden materials have been among the basic materials used in many different areas due to some advantages throughout the history. Roadside barriers, which are called passive safety structures, can be produced with different materials such as wood, steel, concrete, and plastic. In this study, Renewable Hybrid Barriers (RHB), a new type of barrier that is used wood in terms of aesthetics, renewability, high shock resistance, and used sand in terms of impact absorption capacity and low cost, produced by taking into account some of the disadvantages of other barrier types. These barriers are planned to be used especially in historical/touristic areas, scenic roads, and in urban areas as urban furniture. Real-time crash tests in accordance with EN 1317 (Road Restraint Systems) standard require high cost and long time. Therefore, the pendulum crash test mechanism frequently used in the literature was manufactured at which the experiments were carried out. Results: The results revealed that the RHBs which has 2 cm thick timber and sand used together, were sufficient and suitable in terms of both cost and necessary safety criteria. It was observed that impregnation and heat treatment applications did not have a considerable negative effect on the performance of RHBs which provide an opportunity to use RHBs for outdoor conditions.. Conclusion: In the light of the results of the study, the optimum wood timber thickness was determined as 2 cm regarding TB 31 test criteria. It is proposed that the crash tests for different wood species, timber thickness, and/or barrier dimensions should carry out in future studies. This study can serve as the basis for the next step, real-time real crash tests. Since the study includes an interdisciplinary subject, it is thought that it will inspire different studies.

Background: Climate warming has caused substantial changes in temporal and spatial environmental patterns. The study on hot spots of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China under predicted climate change can provide a scientific reference for the restoration and reconstruction of those degraded habitats, as well as the improvement of the protection system in Northwest China. Results: Based on MaxEnt algorithm, 813 effective distribution records and 11 environmental factor variables of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China, this study identified the changes of biodiversity hotspots of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China under predicted climate change. The results showed that: (1) the prediction accuracy of MaxEnt model is high, the area under the curve (AUC) is 0.876, and the total suitable area for potential geographical distribution of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China is 137.96×104km 2 , mainly including Western and Southwestern Xinjiang, Southern Gansu, parts of Eastern and Southern Qinghai Province, and Southern Shaanxi Province; (2) altitude, temperature and precipitation are the main environmental factors affecting the hot spots of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China; (3) under four climate change scenarios in the future, with the increase of emission scenarios from low to high forcing, Xinjiang would have the most obvious loss of hot spots of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China, and the most obvious increase of which would occur in Qinghai and Gansu provinces. Conclusion: Under the climate change scenario in the future, with the emission scenario increasing from low forcing to high forcing, the most obvious loss of the hot spots of rare and endangered plants in Northwest China happens in Xinjiang Province, and that of the most obvious increase occurs in Qinghai and Gansu provinces.

Background: Forests are the main terrestrial regulators of greenhouse gas concentrations. However, estimates of carbon fluxes in them are characterized by large uncertainties. Therefore, the derivation of predictors for their assessment is an urgent task. The aim was to assess the carbon stocks in the biomass to characterize the intensity of aboveground net production and the amount of litterfall in Scots pine forests of different types on the North-East of the Europe. We estimated biomass and aboveground net primary production (ANPP) of stands using sample trees. For vegetation of ground cover biomass and primary production evaluating, we cut off all aboveground organs on an area of 625 cm 2 and removed the first-year parts. Litterfall was collected over 3–6 years using litter traps. Results: Most of the carbon in the biomass of pine forests is concentrated in trees (C stand ) with dominating role of stem wood. However, in boggy forests, ground vegetation plays a significant role in carbon stocks, both in absolute and relative values. We estimated carbon fluxes in ANPP and stand litterfall. High contribution of needles was detected for these flows. The ratio between ANPP and C stand varied from 0.018 to 0.056 but between Litterfal and C stand ranged from 0.008 to 0.024. Conclusion: The biomass, ANPP and litterfall depended form forest type. Obtained ratios between them can be used for assessing carbon fluxes in large regions using remote data collection of forest biomass.
背景:森林是温室气体浓度的主要陆地调节者。然而,对其中碳通量的估计具有很大的不确定性。因此,对其进行评估的预测因子的推导是一项紧迫的任务。目的是评估生物量中的碳储量,以表征欧洲东北部不同类型苏格兰松林地上净产量的强度和凋落物的数量。利用样木估算林分生物量和地上净初级生产量。对于地表植被生物量和初级生产的评价,我们在625 cm 2的面积上砍掉所有地上器官,去掉第一年的部分。利用垃圾捕集器收集凋落物,时间为3-6年。结果:松林生物量中的碳大部分集中在乔木(C林分)中,以茎材为主。然而,在沼泽森林中,地面植被对碳储量的绝对和相对价值都起着重要作用。我们估算了ANPP和林分凋落物的碳通量。在这些流动中检测到针状物的高贡献。ANPP与C林分的比值为0.018 ~ 0.056,凋落物与C林分的比值为0.008 ~ 0.024。结论:森林的生物量、总磷和凋落物取决于森林类型。所获得的两者之间的比率可用于利用森林生物量的远程数据收集来评估大区域的碳通量。

Background : Understanding forest dynamics after logging is essential to define forest management cycles and intensities. In secondary forest, especially in the Atlantic Forest Domain, these studies are still scarce. Monitoring of the canopy structure after tree harvesting can be performed by hemispherical photographs, where canopy opening is commonly analyzed. This study evaluated changes in canopy opening four years after tree harvesting in a secondary Atlantic Rainforest in southern Brazil. We used hemispherical photographs to determine the Canopy Openness (CO), Leaf Area Index (LAI), and Diffuse Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Absorbed Radiation (FAPAR dif ) in eleven permanent plots. Results: We found that harvesting resulted in a momentary increase in canopy opening and light availability in the understory. Four years after harvesting, CO, LAI and FAPAR dif recovered or even exceeded the original values of the forest. We observed a significant correlation between CO and number of trees harvested with DBH > 30 cm. Weak correlations were found between these canopy related variables and the logging intensity. Conclusion: In conclusion, we recognized that changes of CO, LAI and FAPAR dif after timber harvesting presented short duration. This indicates that the applied logging intensities, 21.8 to 51.1% of the total basal area, did not exceed the resilience of the forest canopy and it’s recovering four years later. However, additional studies should be carried out to observe vegetation dynamics, such as species composition, vertical structure, productivity and community stability, in order to improve management schemes of secondary stands in the Atlantic Forest.
