Evolution on Ecological Carrying Capacity of Dualistic Water in County Scale Based on Matter Element Analysis Model by ZUO Taian, ZHANG Fengtai, YU Shijie, YANG Qing

“…The water ecological carrying capacity contains the water resource carrying capacity and the water environment carrying capacity.As one of the basic studies for integrated management of the water ecological system,this capacity connects socioeconomic development and the water ecological system.Hence its dynamic evolution reflects the dynamic equilibrium between the water ecological system and socioeconomic system.By taking the poverty-stricken Weining County in karst regions as an example,based on matter element analysis model,this paper sets up an evaluation indicator system for the ecological carrying capacity of dualistic water in county scale,and simulates the evolution of the ecological carrying capacity of dualistic water in Weining County between 2006 and 2017.The study shows that:The ecological carrying capacity of dualistic water in Weining County followed the tendency of turning for the better between 2006 and 2017.The technological advances and growing concern to the water ecological environment are two major causes of continual increases in its ecological carrying capacity of water.The ecological carrying capacity of dualistic water of Weining County between 2006 and 2017 was a tolerable level.However,the level shifted to weakly tolerable level in 2006 and 2011,meaning that the capacity was unstable and subject to extreme climatic changes.So,efforts should be made to consolidate existing achievements.Hence attention should be paid by Weining County to the dynamic changes in the reservoir filling,grade of water quality in lakes and rivers,recycle rate of industrial water,water resources per capita,water consumption per capita,and the rate of water-served population.The study will provide references for the water resource safety,ecological safety,and environmental construction in karst regions.…”

Prediction of the Stability of the Loaded Rock Based on the Acoustic Emission Characteristics of the Loaded Rock Based on Data Mining by Mengyao Li, Chang Su, Guolong Li

“…The rock masses that occur in nature are damaged and unstable due to the impact of rock burst, coal and gas outbursts, and other human mining activities, posing a major threat to human life and safety. In the light of the early warning of the danger of the loaded rock mass, this paper adopts acoustic emission (AE) device to analyze the AE signal characteristics and damage laws of the loaded rock under different stress levels. …”

Approaches to improve wheat grain quality: breeding for falling number by V. A. Krupnov, O. V. Krupnova

“…It illustrates the genetic complexity and context dependence of the PHSR and FN traits and of major factors impairing FN. A specific feature of breeding for high PHSR and FN is that it involves elimination of late maturity α-amylase (LMA) genotypes in choosing parents for crossing and from early hybrid generations; choice of donors of target traits with regard to their genetic diversity; methods of evaluation of varieties and lines for PHSR and FN under different environmental conditions; determination of F2 population size with regard to combination of PHSR, FN, high performance, grain quality, and other commercial traits. …”
