Study on Calculation of Cross-section Area of River Based on Analysis Method of Mid-point Distance Section by DANG Xicheng, LUO Yi, WANG Haiyan, LI Rong

“…The cross-section area is one of the key factors in flow measurement by velocity area method,and its calculation accuracy is directly related to the accuracy of flow measurement.Due to the complexity and diversity of the river section,the existing software algorithm cannot accurately judge the real position of the river flow through the large section data,resulting in the extraction error of the range of the cross section and the vertical depth.Therefore,with computer programming technology,this paper puts forward the analysis method of river mid-point distance section for identifying the position of river flow and judging the type of section,such as single section and compound section,extracting the water's edge and vertical line,and calculating the area.The application shows that the software can accurately analyze the river flow position under different hydraulic conditions by this method,and calculate the river cross-section area,achieving the purpose of algorithm design.This method can be widely used in automatic hydrological detection equipment or hydrological analysis software to improve the analysis ability of the equipment or software for cross-section flow area of river.…”

Decomposition of different organic matter substrates and algal biomass accrual as early warning indicators of human impacts on stream ecosystems by Diana Rojo, Alberto Alonso, Javier Pérez, Agustí Agut, Brais Hermosilla, Scott D. Tiegs, Luz Boyero

“…Our results showed that, although a combination of substrates should be prioritized in assessment programs to provide a complete picture of anthropogenic impacts on stream ecosystems, the single use of substrates can be efficient to detect certain responses (e.g., cotton strips or banana leaves for heterotrophic microbial responses, marble tiles for autotrophic processes, and alder leaf litter for total decomposition and associated detritivores).…”

Participation of the adrenal gland in the anti-inflammatory effect of polyunsaturated diets by V. L. F. Silveira, E. A. Limãos, D. W. Nunes

“…The effect of an n-3 (fish) and n-6 (soybean) fatty acid-rich diet on carrageenin paw oedema in rats, and the participation of adrenal gland, corticosterone and α2-macroglobulin (α2-M) in this process were studied. A significant inhibition of carrageenin oedema was observed not only in rats fed a diet rich in fish oil but also in the soybean group. α2-M was not detectable before carrageenin injection, suggesting that this putative antiinflammatory factor does not participate in the observed anti-inflammatory effect. …”
