Abstract:
Concerns over freshwater scarcity for agriculture, ecosystems, and human consumption are driving the construction of infiltration trenches in many mountain protected areas. This study examines the effectiveness of infiltration trenches in a subalpine forested catchment in central Mexico, where public and private organizations have been constructing trenches for ~60 years. We rely on empirical data to develop rainfall-runoff models for two scenarios: a baseline (no trenches) and a trenched scenario.

We tested the effect of root trenching on vegetation in closed-canopy and gap locations in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) forests. Based on theory, we expected belowground competition to be intense in a region with low summer rainfall, and trench responses were expected to be greater in the high light environment of the gaps. We installed 1 m deep trenches around study plots and lined the trenches to prevent reinvasion by tree roots. Soil moisture was measured monthly during the growing season for the first 3 years after trench installation. Vegetation in these trenched plo

We report the use of relatively small root exclusions (15.2 cm diameter plastic pipe) (SREs), installed and measured within a growing season. We switched from long-used, large root exclusions (2.5 m × 3 m) (LREs) for three reasons. First, temperature artifacts were apparent in LREs, likely because increased soil moisture altered soil thermal balance. Second, LREs in dense stands required a relatively low tree densit

Abstract:
Moisture availability is the factor that most commonly influences the discrimination against 13C fixation (Δ) by C3 plants. Therefore, by changing the availability of moisture by way of controlling competing vegetation, Δ in white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) seedlings should be affected. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of manual brushing on Δ in white spruce seedlings planted in disc-trenched and control (i.e., no site preparation) microsites.

Abstract:
The roots of pin oak (Quercus palustris) trees were severed by trenching on 1, 2, or 3 sides the tree. The distance between the trunk and the trenches was approximately equal to the trunk circumference. Half of the trees also received compensatory crown pruning. All trees survived and significant dieback was noted only on trees that were trenched on 3 sides. Generally, the more extensive the trenching, the greater the growth reduction and dieback, and the longer the reduction persisted. Compensatory pruning increased twig growth for all trenching treatments, but seems to be most beneficial in

Abstract. We conducted soil warming experiment in a cool-temperate forest with peat soil in northern Japan, during the snowless seasons of 2007–2009. Our objective was to determine whether or not the heterotrophic respiration rate and the temperature sensitivity would change by soil warming. We elevated the soil temperature by 3 °C at 5 cm depth by means of overhead infrared heaters and continuously measured soil CO2 fluxes by using a fifteen-channel automated chamber system. Trenching treatment was also carried out to separate heterotrophic respiration and root respiration from the total soil

Although the contribution of roots to soil carbon (C) fluxes and biochemical processes is recognised, it is difficult to quantify. One approach to assess their importance is the use of trenched plots, in which C inputs to the soil and respiration by living roots has ceased.

Abstract:
SiC JFET, compared with SiC MOSFET, is attractive for high power, high temperature applications because it is free of gate oxide reliability issues. Trenched-and-Implanted VJFET (TIVJFET) does not require epi-regrowth and is capable of high current density. In this work we demonstrate two trenched-and-implanted normally-off 4H-SiC vertical junction field-effect transistors (TI-VJFET), based on 120μm, 4.9×1014cm-3 and 100μm, 6×1014cm-3 drift layers. The corresponding devices showed blocking voltage (VB) of 11.1kV and specific on-resistance (RSP_ON) of 124m7cm2, and VB of 10kV and RSP_ON of 87m7

Abstract:
In the present study, a novel normally-off vertical GaN MOSFET with an enhanced AlGaN/GaN channel on the sidewall has been proposed using the technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulation. By using the selective area growth process, the trench structure and the enhanced sidewall channel are formed simultaneously, which is beneficial to enhance the conduction capability compared with the conventional trenched MOSFET. It demonstrates that a proper hole concentration and thickness of the p-GaN layer are key parameters to balance the threshold voltage, on-state resistance, and off-state break

The combustor simulator was designed to combine the interaction of two rows of dilution jets, which were staggered in the streamwise direction and aligned in the spanwise direction. As a result, the combustor with row trenched holes gave almost

Abstract:
The seabed trenching due to chain-soil-water interaction in deepwater moorings is disadvantageous to the holding capacity of the anchor, which threatens the safety of the whole floating system. A measure is proposed in this study to restrain the adverse impact of seabed trenching by utilizing the diving potential of plate anchors. Model tests were conducted to verify the stability and further keying behaviour of the plate anchor in trenched seabed. Test results show that the plate anchor automatically dives deeper and hence develops higher resistance to balance the uplift load with the progres

Most tropical fruit trees in southern Florida are grown in calcareous gravelly soil that is mechanically trenched to a depth of about 50 cm (about 20 inches). Fruit trees are often planted at the intersections of perpendicular trenches to provide space for root development. Tree root systems are concentrated in the top 10 to 20 cm (about 4 to 8 inches) of soil. Extreme soil rockiness has made it difficult to obtain consistent and reliable measurements of soil water status and to collect soil samples for constructing soil-water characteristic curves in the laboratory.

In particular, these distinctive and abrupt movements are more noticeable in the horizontal motions than in the vertical motions. This phenomenon, long been experienced by pilots navigating over dredged waterways, is indeed a hydrodynamic response of wave trapping inside the channel.
