    Description / Table of Contents: Green infrastructure is widely recognised as a valuable resource in our towns and cities and it is therefore crucial to understand, create, protect and manage this resource. This Handbook sets the context for green infrastructure as a means to make urban environments more resilient, sustainable, liveable and equitable. It then provides a comprehensive and authoritative account for those seeking to achieve sustainable green infrastructure in urban environments of how to plan, design and implement green infrastructure at different spatial scales

    Notes: Insulated rail joint assemblies provide electrical insulation between two sections of railfor signalling purposes. In this work, rail steel was successfully bonded to PSZ ceramic using anactive brazing technique. In order to increase the wettability of the PSZ ceramics, titanium coatingwas deposited on the ceramic surface using a filtered arc deposition system. A filler metal calledBVAg-18 (60%Ag-30%Cu-10%Sn) was used and the joining was performed at a temperature of750 °C.Bonding between partially stabilised zirconia and rail steel with BVAg-18 filler metal was notachieved using a standard brazing method. Bonding did occur with the BVAg-18 filler metal usingthe advanced brazing technique of active metal brazing, with best results obtained using a brazingtemperature of 750oC and a dwell time of 10 minutes. The microstructure of the coating and jointinterface were characterised by XRD, SEM and EDS

    Notes: The flow of a thin film of a yield-stress material on a rotating disc is considered. For the constitutive relation we use the biviscosity model, of which the usual Bingham model is a limiting case. We show that this limiting process conflicts with the usual thin film approximation, so that care is needed to avoid contradictions. It is found that the flow consists of three regions: (1) an inner region centered on the axis of rotation which is unyielded, (2) a shear flow region adjacent to the disc which is bounded above by the yield surface and (3) a region near to the free surface which is unyielded and has the yield surface as lower boundary. It is in the third region that difficulties occur in the straightforward "Bingham limit.'' For on the one hand the material is rigid, and on the other it is supposed to move outwards radially. This conflict can be removed by using the biviscosity model and a suitable limiting process. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Fog is a defining feature of the coastal California redwood forest and fog inputs via canopy drip in summer can constitute 30% or more of the total water input each year. A great deal of occult precipitation (fog and light rain) is retained in redwood canopies, which have some of the largest leaf area indices known (Westman & Whittaker, Journal of Ecology 63, 493–520, 1975). An investigation was carried out to determine whether some fraction of intercepted fog water might be directly absorbed through leaf surfaces and if so, the importance of this to the water relations physiology of coast redwood, Sequoia sempervirens. An array of complimentary techniques were adopted to demonstrate that fog is absorbed directly by S. sempervirens foliage. Xylem sap transport reversed direction during heavy fog, with instantaneous flow rates in the direction of the soil peaking at approximately 5–7% of maximum transpiration rate. Isotopic analyses showed that up to 6% of a leaf's water content could be traced to a previous night's fog deposition, but this amount varied considerably depending on the age and water status of the leaves. Old leaves, which appear most able to absorb fog water were able to absorb distilled water when fully submersed at an average rate of 0.90 mmol m2 s−1, or about 80% of transpiration rates measured at the leaf level in the field. Sequoia sempervirens has poor stomatal control in response to a drying atmosphere, with rates of water loss on very dry nights up to 40% of midday summer values and rates above 10% being extremely common. Owing to this profligate water use behaviour of S. sempervirens, it appears that fog has a greater role in suppressing water loss from leaves, and thereby ameliorating daily water stress, than in providing supplemental water to foliar tissues per se. Although direct foliar absorption from fog inputs represents only a small fraction of the water used each day, fog's in reducing transpiration and rehydrating leaf tissues during the most active growth periods in summer may allow for greater seasonal carbon fixation and thus contribute to the very fast growth rates and great size of this species.

    Notes: Abstract In order to identify genes that are specifically expressed in distinct cell populations of the maize root apex, we have constructed PCR-directed cDNA libraries from microdissected populations of cells, and screened them by differential hybridisation. A meristem-specific cDNA was isolated and characterised. This cDNA, termed ZmeIF3A, encodes a protein homologous to the large subunit of the eukaryotic translation Initiation Factor 3 (eIF3), which is an essential multi-protein complex for the initiation of protein synthesis. The ZmeIF3A protein is most similar to the yeast homologue RPG1, lacking the repeated C-terminal domain characteristic of its mammalian counterparts. However, despite this similarity, it fails to replace the RPG1 protein in complementation experiments on yeast mutants. Analysis of gene expression in situ showed that the ZmeIF3A transcript is expressed in the region of the root meristem surrounding the central stele. ZmeIF3A mRNA is also expressed in the young root, the male inflorescence, and the developing cob and seed. In maize, ZmeIF3A is encoded by one or two genomic sequences. This is the first report on the isolation and characterisation of a cDNA from higher plants that encodes a product homologous to a component of the eIF3 complex.
