Although much research has been carried out on Australopithecus afarensis locomotion, no consensus has yet been reached. Our new critic study on femoral material brings to the fore a strictly bipedal behaviour within this taxon. Our results are based on the pertinence of human anatomical characteristics among A. afarensis and on the absence of characteristics revealing arboreal displacement. These results have emerged from our different observation and interpretation of some preceding authors concerning the anatomy of these fossil hominids. It is important to underline that apomorphic characteristics of this species are difficult to interpret. They must not however be used to support the idea of arboreal displacement simply based on the fact of a no totally human morphe. We believe that present day humans do not necessarily reflect the earliest strict bipedal anatomic model. An the other hand, it appears that the disagreement between the two locomotor hypothesis for A. afarensis that are bipedalism and arboreal displacement, facing the possibility of bipedalism associated with negligible arboreal displacement, results more from an evolutionary fact than from a real scientific conflict. 相似文献

The ability of an ecosystem to retain anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition is dependent upon plant and soil sinks for N,
the strengths of which may be altered by chronic atmospheric N deposition. Sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.), the dominant overstory tree in northern hardwood forests of the Lake States region, has a limited capacity to take
up and assimilate NO3−. However, it is uncertain whether long-term exposure to NO3− deposition might induce NO3− uptake by this ecologically important overstory tree. Here, we investigate whether 10 years of experimental NO3− deposition (30 kg N ha−1 y−1) could induce NO3− uptake and assimilation in overstory sugar maple (approximately 90 years old), which would enable this species to function
as a direct sink for atmospheric NO3− deposition. Kinetic parameters for NH4+ and NO3− uptake in fine roots, as well as leaf and root NO3− reductase activity, were measured under conditions of ambient and experimental NO3− deposition in four sugar maple-dominated stands spanning the geographic distribution of northern hardwood forests in the
Upper Lake States. Chronic NO3− deposition did not alter the V
max or K
m for NO3− and NH4+ uptake nor did it influence NO3− reductase activity in leaves and fine roots. Moreover, the mean V
max for NH4+ uptake (5.15 μmol 15N g−1 h−1) was eight times greater than the V
max for NO3− uptake (0.63 μmol 15N g−1 h−1), indicating a much greater physiological capacity for NH4+ uptake in this species. Additionally, NO3− reductase activity was lower than most values for woody plants previously reported in the literature, further indicating
a low physiological potential for NO3− assimilation in sugar maple. Our results demonstrate that chronic NO3− deposition has not induced the physiological capacity for NO3− uptake and assimilation by sugar maple, making this dominant species an unlikely direct sink for anthropogenic NO3− deposition. 相似文献

D2− ions produced in collisions of D− ions with relative energies of 2.5–9.2 eV were detected for the first time. It is shown that the effective cross section
for this reaction is no less than 1.5 × 10−14 cm2. Along with the theoretically predicted short-lived state of negative molecular deuterium ions, a state existing for more
than 1 μs was observed. 相似文献

In two mountain ecosystems at the Alptal research site in central Switzerland, pulses of 15NO3 and 15NH4 were separately applied to trace deposited inorganic N. One forested and one litter meadow catchment, each approximately
1600 m2, were delimited by trenches in the Gleysols. K15NO3 was applied weekly or fortnightly over one year with a backpack sprayer, thus labelling the atmospheric nitrate deposition.
After the sampling and a one-year break, 15NH4Cl was applied as a second one-year pulse, followed by a second sampling campaign. Trees (needles, branches and bole wood),
ground vegetation, litter layer and soil (LF, A and B horizon) were sampled at the end of each labelling period. Extractable
inorganic N, microbial N, and immobilised soil N were analysed in the LF and A horizons. During the whole labelling period,
the runoff water was sampled as well. Most of the added tracer remained in both ecosystems. More NO3− than NH4+ tracer was retained, especially in the forest. The highest recovery was in the soil, mainly in the organic horizon, and in
the ground vegetation, especially in the mosses. Event-based runoff analyses showed an immediate response of 15NO3− in runoff, with sharp 15N peaks corresponding to discharge peaks. NO3− leaching showed a clear seasonal pattern, being highest in spring during snowmelt. The high capacity of N retention in these
ecosystems leads to the assumption that deposited N accumulates in the soil organic matter, causing a progressive decline
of its C:N ratio. 相似文献

A confined aquifer in the Malm Karst of the Franconian Alb, South Germany was investigated in order to understand the role of the vadose zone in denitrifiaction processes. The concentrations of chemical tracers Sr2+ and Cl– and concentrations of stable isotope 18O were measured in spring water and precipitation during storm events. Based on these measurements a conceptual model for runoff was constructed. The results indicate that pre-event water, already stored in the system at the beginning of the event, flows downslope on vertical and lateral preferential flow paths. Chemical tracers used in a mixing model for hydrograph separation have shown that the pre-event water contribution is up to 30%. Applying this information to a conceptual runoff generation model, the values of 15N and 18O in nitrate could be calculated. Field observations showed the occurence of significant microbial denitrification processes above the soil/bedrock interface before nitrate percolates through to the deeper horizon of the vadose zone. The source of nitrate could be determined and denitrification processes were calculated. Assuming that the nitrate reduction follows a Rayleigh process one could approximate a nitrate input concentration of about 170 mg/l and a residual nitrate concentration of only about 15%. The results of the chemical and isotopic tracers postulate fertilizers as nitrate source with some influence of atmospheric nitrate. The combined application of hydrograph separation and determination of isotope values in 15N and 18O of nitrate lead to an improved understanding of microbial processes (nitrification, denitrification) in dynamic systems. 相似文献

Sodium Nitroprusside (SNP) and S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) differently affect mitochondrial H2O2 release at Complex-I. mM SNP increases while GSNO decreases the release induced by succinate alone or added on top of NAD-linked
substrates. Stimulation likely depends on Nitric Oxide (
.
NO) (released by SNP but not by GSNO) inhibiting cytochrome oxidase and mitochondrial respiration. Preincubations with SNP
or high GSNO (10 mM plus DTE to increases its
.
NO release) induces an inhibition of the succinate dependent H2O2 production consistent with a
.
NO dependent covalent modification. However maximal inhibition of the succinate dependent H2O2 release is obtained in the presence of low GSNO (20–100 μM), but not with SNP. This inhibition appears independent of
.
NO release since μM GSNO does not affect mitochondrial respiration, or the H2O2 detection systems and its effect is very rapid. Inhibition may be partly due to an increased removal of O2.− since GSNO chemically competes with NBT and cytochrome C in O2.− detection. 相似文献

Wide-compatibility (WC) is one of the most important traits in rice, which can overcome the fertility barrier in the indica/japonica hybrids, and hence to make it possible to utilize the higher yield potential of inter-subspecific hybrids. The S
5
n
gene located on chromosome 6 has been previously reported to be responsible for the wide-compatibility in rice. Here we report
the precise location of the S
5
n
gene. In the first-pass mapping, the S
5
n
gene was restricted within a 200 kb region by using a population of 242 isogenic lines in combination with high-density markers
developed in the S
5 region. In the fine mapping, the S
5 region was further saturated with newly developed markers and more isogenic lines (549 in total) were investigated. Eventually,
the S
5
n
gene was mapped within a 50 kb region delimited by the left marker J13 and the right marker J17. One BAC clone screened from
the BAC library of the WC rice variety 02428 covered the whole S
5 region. Sequence analysis of the 50 kb region revealed two candidate genes, coding an aspartyl protease and a hypothetical
protein. This result would greatly accelerate both cloning and marker-assisted selection of this important S
5
n
gene.

During the last years, an international debate about the concept of “Palaeolithic art” has taken place. On one hand, several specialists have critiqued the use of the concept of “art” in naming the images created by Homo sapiens during the Palaeolithic era. They claim that the use of this term implies the projection of a modern category to a world - that of prehistoric humans - which is completely different from our own. On the other hand, some archaeologists consider that the term “Palaeolithic art” does not imply an anachronistic interpretation of prehistoric representations. In presenting the historical context, which has made such a discussion possible, we consider the causes and effects of this controversy. Firstly, we analyze the traditional interpretation, which considered Palaeolithic images as “works of art”. Secondly, we examine the connections, which can be found between the debate about “Palaeolithic art” and certain polemics, which have arisen from the history of art and anthropological frameworks. Thirdly, we consider the arguments utilized by those who are for and those who are against the term “Palaeolithic art”. Finally, we emphasize the importance of this debate to better understand the categories and the concepts, which determine the scientific practice. 相似文献

A method for determining the lifetime of unstable ions is described. The method is based on measuring the decrease in the ion beam current onto a fixed detector with increasing path length of the ion beam from the ion source to the detector. The measurements performed for D? 2 and HD? molecular ions have shown that their lifetimes are 3.5 ± 0.1 and 4.4 ± 0.1 μs, respectively. 相似文献

Negative hands, occasionally with incomplete fingers, are often found in Paleolithic caves but so far have received no definitive explanation. Nowadays they are more commonly seen as the expression of a gestural language. In this paper, we suggest that the negative hands visible in the Cosquer cave and dating from around 27?000 BP could represent counting on fingers. Several arguments are developed to support this hypothesis. Furthermore we also suggest that the dots and dashes often associated with negative hands in numerous caves, might be another, more advanced way of representing numbers. 相似文献

The structures and stabilities of eleven N13
+ and N13
– isomers have been investigated with second-order Møller–Plesset (MP2) and density functional theory (DFT) methods. Five N13
+ isomers and six N13
– isomers are all reasonable local minima on their potential energy hypersurfaces. The most stable N13
+ cation is structure C-2 with C2v symmetry, which contains a pentazole ring and two N4 open chains. It is different from those of the N7
+ and N9
+ clusters, but similar to the N11
+ cluster. Meanwhile, the most stable N13
– structure A-2 is composed of a pentazole ring and a six-membered ring connected by two nitrogen atoms. It is not only different from those of the N7
– and N9
– clusters, but also from the N11
– cluster. The decomposition pathways of structures C-2 and A-2 were investigated at the B3LYP/(aug)-cc-pVDZ level. From the barrier heights of the structures C-2 and A-2 decomposition processes, it is suggested that C-2 is difficult to observe experimentally and A-2 may be observed as a short-lived species.
