    Description: Sandmischkulturen unterschiedlichen Alters sowie einige Ausgangstorfe der kultivierten Moorböden wurden auf den Gehalt und die Verteilung an organisch gebundenem Stickstoff in verschiedenen N-Fraktionen untersucht. Mit zunehmendem Alter der Sandmischkulturen steigt der Humifizierungsgrad und der Gesamtstickstoffgehalt der organischen Substanz. Parallel dazu steigt in Relation zum Gesamt-Stickstoff der Anteil des insgesamt nicht-hydrolysierbaren, vorwiegend heterozyklisch organisch gebundenen Stickstoffs stärker an, und entsprechend stärker verringert sich der Anteil des insgesamt hydrolysierbaren Stickstoffs. Im Zuge dieser Umstrukturierung der organischen Substanz nähert sich die Verteilung des organisch gebundenen Stickstoffs auf die einzelnen N-Fraktionen auch in Moorkulturböden dem Muster, wie es an isolierten Huminsäuren aus Podsolen oder Schwarzerden bekannt ist. Auch der absolute Gehalt an Aminosäure-N pro g organischer Substanz nimmt mit zunehmendem Alter der Sandmischkulturen zu, eine typische Veränderung am Verteilungsmuster der einzelnen Aminosäuren zueinander ist jedoch nicht zu erkennen. Bei den Aminozuckern tritt dagegen eine charakteristische Veränderung ein. Während die Relation von Glukosamin zu Galaktosamin im sauren Hochmoortorf etwa 1 ist, liegt diese Relation in der Fehnkultur bei 2,5.
    Description: Sand-mixed cultivated soils of different age and the original peat Substrates were analysed for their nitrogen content and for their distribution of organically bound nitrogen in different nitrogen fractions. With increasing age of sand-mixed cultivated bogs the degree of humification and the total nitrogen content of the organic matter increase as well in these soils. Corresponding with these changes the relative amounts of non hydrolysable , heterocyclically bound nitrogen increase more than the relative amounts of total hydrolysable nitrogen. In the course of this structural change of the organic matter the distribution pattern of organically bound nitrogen in different nitrogen fractions of the sand-mixed cultivated soils becomes simular to that which is known from isolated humic acids of podsolic soils or chernozems. The absolute amount of amino-acid-ni trogen per g organic matter increases with the age of sand-mixed cultivated soils too. A typical change in the distribution pattern of the different amino acids was not observed. On the other side a typical change in the distribution pattern of amino sugars takes place. Whereas the ratio of glucosamine to galacto samine in the original high moor peat is near 1, the corresponding ratio in the older sand-mixed cultivated soil is about 2,5.

    Description: Schwach zersetzter Sphagnum-Torf (Weißtorf) ist ein wertvoller Rohstoff, der für eine Reihe spezieller Anwendungen, insbesondere im Erwerbsgartenbau, schwer substituierbar ist. In West- und Mitteleuropa ist bereits ein Großteil der Vorräte aufgebraucht und wird zunehmend Weißtorf aus Nord- und Ost-Europa sowie Kanada importiert. Langfristig werden die Weißtorf-Vorräte und wachsende Hochmoore nur in Reservaten und in kommerziell nicht erschließbaren Regionen überdauern. Es ist daher an der Zeit, in eine Phase der nachhaltigen Nutzung von Torfen, die Paludikultur, einzutreten. Daß eine Rotationskultur junger Sphagnum-Torfe technisch machbar ist, zeigen Erfahrungen mit dem Sphagnum-Harvesting sowie mit der Revitalisierung von Hochmooren zu Naturschutzzwecken. Die Paludikultur wirft Fragen auf zur Auswahl geeigneter Sphagnum-Sippen, zu Techniken der Etablierung und Beerntung von Moorflächen, zur Optimierung der Erträge und Substratqualitäten, zu erforderlichen Flächengrößen, zur Rentabilität und zu möglichen positiven oder negativen Nebenwirkungen. Diese Aspekte werden ansatzweise diskutiert. In Mitteleuropa stellen insbesondere abgetorfte Hochmoore und andere Bergbaufolgelandschaften ein Flächenpotential für die Paludikultur dar.
    Description: Slightly humified Sphagnum peat is a valuable resource that is difficult to be substituted in professional horticulture. In West- and Central Europe, the stocks are nearly exhausted and peat is increasingly imported. At the long run, Sphagnum moss peat and virgin Sphagnum bogs may only survive in nature reserves or in areas that are technically and commercially inaccessible. Time has, therefore, come for peat extraction to develop into sustainable peat cultivation: paludiculture. Experiences with Sphagnum-harvesting and restoration of cut-over bogs indicate that a rotation culture of young Sphagnum peat is technically possible. A future paludiculture implies the identification of optimal conditions and Sphagnum taxa for peat accumulation, the development of adequate cultivation and retrieval techniques, an estimation of necessary areas and economics, and an assessment of possible positive and negative side effects. This paper presents a review of these aspects. Suitable areas for paludiculture in Central-Europe may include cut-over bogs and other exhausted open-cast mining areas.

    Description: Leegmoorkulturen, rekultiviert aus teilabgetorften Hochmooren nach dem Verfahren der Deutschen Hochmoorkultur, tendieren mit abnehmender Bunkerdemächtigkeit zu zunehmender Staunässe. Tiefpflügen von Bunkerde und Schwarztorf zur Vertiefung der Staunässesohle brachte in einem 5-jährigen Feldversuch nicht den erwarteten Erfolg. Die Erträge nahmen besonders in nassen Jahren mit zunehmender Pflugtiefe und Versuchsdauer ab. Dieses Versagen einer neuen Rekultivierungsmaßnahme wird durch zunehmende Lagerungsdichte, zunehmenden Scherwiderstand und davon abhängig verminderter Durchlässigkeit bodenphysikalisch erklärt.
    Description: Cut-over bogs, cultivated according to the German raised-bog cultivation method, tend to become increasingly wet with decreasing thickness of the topspit layer. It was tried to lower the damming-up horizon at the contact of the top-spit layer and the underlying black peat by deep ploughing and mixing top spit and black peat. The result of a five years' field trial was however negative. The grain yields decreased with increasing ploughing depth and with time, especially in wet years.The failure of this new recultivation method is explained by the change of soil-physical parameters: increase of bulk density and shear resistance and decrease of water permeability.

    Description: Durch Untersuchung des Wasserhaushaltes einer Deutschen Hochmoorkultur wird der Einfluß von Trockenjahren dargelegt. Wie Bodenfeuchtigkeitsuntersuchungen mit Tensiometern zeigen, bleiben Moorböden zunächst lange feucht und trocknen dann nur in der durchwurzelten Schicht aus. Wenige Dezimeter darunter bleibt der Moorboden fast wassergesättigt. Wie gezeigt werden konnte, ist dies eine Folge der kapillaren Wasserleitfähigkeit der Torfe. Der Austrocknung der durchwurzelten Schicht kann durch schweres Walzen begegnet werden. Hierzu werden Ergebnisse zur Bodenfeuchteänderung durch Walzen mitgeteilt.
    Description: Dry years also influence the water balance of peat soils. This could be shown by investigations on a German raised bog cultivation. Measurements of soil moisture with tensiometers indicated a long period with sufficient water content. After this period dryness appeared in the rooted zone only, but a few decimeters below this zone the peat soil was nearly saturated. This follows from the unsaturated flow conditions of the peat soils. The drying out of the rooted zone can be reduced by heavy rolling. This had been proved by the measurement of soil moisture during the rolling trial.

    Description: Moorschutz kann nur als integrierter Naturschutz betrieben werden. Ohne Abgrenzung ihrer Schutzfähigkeit (hydrologisch, Immissionen) sind Moore nicht als schutzwürdig zu erklären. Besonders bedeutungsvoll ist die hydrologische Situation der verschiedenen Moortypen für den Flächenschutz als Voraussetzung einer Moorregeneration. Moorerhaltung und Moorregeneration sind für die nordwestdeutschen Niederungen aus klimatischer Sicht auch heute noch möglich, wenn bestimmte hydrologische Bedingungen erfüllt sind und Immissionen weitgehend abgeschirmt werden. Diese können unter Berücksichtigung moorkundlicher Parameter durch bodenkundlich-hydrologische Geländeuntersuchungen eingegrenzt werden. Die Vier häufigsten Moorschutzsituationen werden anhand modellhafter Geländeschnitte durch ein Quellmoor, ein Niedermoor, ein Hochmoor mit und ohne Abtorfung dargestellt. Ohne hydrologische und Immissions-Schutzzonen sind die meisten naturnahen Restmoore in Nordwestdeutschland nicht nachhaltig zu sichern. Schließlich wird die Frage nach dem Mindestareal für den Arten- und Flächenschutz diskutiert und die Sicherungsmöglichkeit vieler allzu kleiner Naturschutzgebiete (NSG) in Frage gestellt.
    Description: The protection of bogs and fens is only possible in the case of integrated nature conservation. Without delimitation of the ability of protection (hydrological, and against immissions) peatlands are not worthy of protection. The hydrological situation of the different moor types is especially significant for the area protection as precondition for moor regeneration. Conservation and regeneration of peatlands are possible in the north-western German lowlands due to the climatic situation. Definite hydrological conditions must be given and immissions avoided. These conditions can be determined by hydrological and pedological field survey and peat parameters. Four of the most common situations of moor protection are shown tut model sections through a spring-water bog, a low moor, and a raised bog with and without peat cutting. Without protection zones, hydrological ones and against immission, residual parts of moors in Northwest Germany cannot be guaranted lasting. At last the question of the minimum dimensions of these zones for the protection of species and of whole areas is discussed. According to this the protection of many very small nature reserves is doubtful.

    Description: Durch moortypisches Wetter eingestimmt, trafen sich die Mitglieder und Freunde der IMTG zu ihrem 7. Kongreß, der zugleich die 30-jährige Wiederkehr eines ersten Treffens von Experten der Moore und Torfe 1954 in Dublin feierte. Die internationale Moor- und Torffamilie ist inzwischen nach Zahl und Inhalt sowie ihren Statuten gewachsen. Etwa 400 Teilnehmer aus 25 Ländern wurden gezählt, leider weniger als ursprünglich erwartet. Sie verteilen sich wie folgt: EG-Länder 193 Teilnehmer, Skandinavien 103, Nordamerika 56, Osteuropa l9, Asien l7, Südamerika 8 und Afrika 3 Teilnehmer. Die Teilnehmerzahl spiegelt also auch in etwa die Bedeutung der Moorvorkommen in den Regionen wider. Die stärksten Delegationen kamen neben dem gastgebenden Irland (99) aus Finnland (69), Bundesrepublik Deutschland (40), Kanada (33), Großbritannien (27), U.S.A. (22). Besonders herzlich begrüßt wurden relativ große Gruppen aus der Volksrepublik China, Japan und Brasilien. [...]

    Description: Die vorhergehenden gemeinsamen Arbeitstagungen der Sektionen II und III in Papenburg 1972 und Bederkesa 1973 galten aktuellen Themen. "Mooraufforstung" und "Moore in unserer Umwelt" stellten vor allem die vielschichtigen Fragen der Folgenutzungen der Moore nach ihrer teilweisen oder vollständigen Abtorfung unter dem Blickwinkel neuer gesetzlicher Auflagen zur Diskussion. Innerhalb und außerhalb unserer Gesellschaft sind die Probleme der Erhaltung und Gestaltung der Moorlandschaften in ein Stadium der Klärung und Reifung getreten. Deshalb schien es den Veranstaltern dieser Tagung 1975 in Wiesmoor an der Zeit, auch einmal aufzuzeigen, welche Leistungen und Anforderungen in der gartenbaulichen Nutzung von Moor und Torf bestehen, ohne dabei den Hintergrund aktueller Auseinandersetzungen um die Rolle der Moore in unserer Umwelt zu vernachlässigen.

    Description: Es wird der Lebenslauf der ältesten Moorforschungsstätte von 1877 bis 1977 vorgestellt. Die Gründe zur wissenschaftlichen Bearbeitung der Moore waren schon immer vielschichtig. So wird aus der Geschichte der Moor-Versuchsstation in Bremen deutlich, dass Naturwissenschaftler, Ökologen und Agrarwissenschaftler gemeinsam an der Erforschung der Eigenschaften von Mooren und Torfen mit dem Ziel ihrer optimalen Nutzung interessiert sind. Es wird aber auch deutlich, wie stark die Erkenntnisse der Moorforschung andere Wissenschaften berühren. Darin kommt die interdisziplinäre Stellung der Moor- und Torfkunde zum Ausdruck.
    Description: The curriculum vitae of the oldest institute of moor and peat research, the Moor-Versuchsstation in Bremen, from 1877 till 1977 is presented. The motives for scientific work about bogs and fens all over the time have been multi-purposed. The history of this institute shows, that scientists, oecologists and agriculturists together are interested in the qualities of moor and peat and their usage to the best of ones knowledge. But, it is shown too, how results of moor and peat research other sciences concern. By this the interdiszipline role of moor and peat research is expressed.

    Description: Nahezu zwei Drittel aller Hochmoore und fast alle Niedermoore werden in Niedersachsen landwirtschaftlich − überwiegend als Grünland − genutzt. Aktuelle Nutzungsprobleme liegen z.Zt. innerbetrieblich im Bereich der Erhaltung der Bodenfruchtbarkeit bei Anpassung an die gesamtwirtschaftliche Entwicklung. Kleine moorreiche Betriebe unterliegen dem Zwang zu höchster Flächenproduktivität. Mit Überschreiten einer Düngungsintensität von 200 kg/ha N und 80 kg/ha P2O5 entstehen hohe Gewässerbelastungen und verstärkter Torfschwund. Eine mehr konservierende Bodennutzung, z.B. durch Sanddeckkulturen wird empfohlen, anderenfalls sind die ökologisch tolerierbaren Grenzen der Intensivierung auf Moorschwarzkultur bald überschritten. Größere Betriebe mit geringeren Mooranteilen versuchen mit dem Ziel einer besseren Arbeitsproduktivität diese durch Tiefumbruch in ihr Mineralbodennutzungskonzept zu integrieren. Nur extensiv genutztes Moorgrünland genügt den Ansprüchen von Naturschutz und Landespflege. Entsprechende Zugeständnisse der Landwirtschaft im Nahbereich von Naturschutzgebieten machen als Ausgleich intensivere Nutzungen auf den übrigen Flächen erforderlich. Einer Zwischenabtorfung von Hochmoorkulturen kann landeskulturell nur zugestimmt werden, wenn die landwirtschaftliche Folgenutzung über eine Sandmischkultur zu einer wirklichen Standortsverbesserung führt.
    Description: About two third of the raised bog areas and nearly 100% of the fen areas in Lower Saxony are agriculturally used, mainly as grassland. Today actual problems in agricultural utilization of peatlands are internal problems of the farms in respect to the preservation of soil fertility along with the adaption to the general economical development. Small farms, rich in peatland, are forced to highest land productivity. However, a fertilizing intensity of more than 200 kg/ha nitrogen and 80 kg/ha phosphorus causes water contaminations and peat losses. A more conservative utilization of peatlands, e.g. by sand-cover cultivation, is therefore recommended. Otherwise an intensification of raised bog and fen utilization would soon exceed the ecologically allowable limits. Large farms with small amounts of peatland try to attain a better productivity of work by deep ploughing and integration of sand-mix cultivated peatlands into the conception of utilizing their mineral soils. The claims of nature conservation and landscaping are only satisfied in case of extensively used grassland on peat. Corresponding concessions of farmers to areas close to nature reserves require agreements for a more intensive utilization of other areas. An intermediate peat cutting on formerly cultivated raised bogs should only be allowed if deep ploughing and sand-mix cultivation creates a really improved soil for later agricultural utilization.

    Description: Die Humifizierungswechsel nordwesteuropäischer Hochmoore sind als Schwarztorf-Weißtorf-Kontakte‚ Rekurrenzflächen oder "WEBERscher Grenzhorizont" bekannt. Eine ähnliche Erscheinung wurde auf Gough Island im Südatlantik entdeckt. In den dortigen terrainbedeckenden Mooren gibt es ebenfalls einen Schwarztorf-Weißtorf-Kontakt. Diese terrainbedeckenden Moore von Gough Island sind nährstoffreicher als unsere nordwesteuropäischen Hochmoore. Ursache dieses Phänomens ist wahrscheinlich die Nährstoffanreicherung durch den Kot der zahlreichen Seevögel.
    Description: The changes of humification of North-West European bogs are known as dark peat/light peat contacts, recurrence horizons or "WEBERscher Grenzhorizont". A similar phenomenon has been discovered on Gough Island in the South Atlantic. There is also dark peat/light peat contact in the blanket bogs over there. These blanket bogs on Gough Island are richer in nutrients than our North-West European bogs. The cause of this phenomenon is the accumulation of nutrients through the dropping of the numerous seabirds.

    Description: Großresteuntersuchungen aus den Torfschichten eines Profils, das in einem unter Marschklei versunkenen Moor in der Nähe von Rechtenfleth/Krs. Wesermünde (Bundesrepublik Deutschland) entnommen wurde, zeigen mehrfache Vegetationswechsel an. Die Moorbildung begann mit einem Erlenbruchwald. Später folgten Großseggenrieder, Schilfröhrichte und Sphagnum-Gesellschaften. Auf eine Anwendung der Untersuchungsergebnisse zur Feuchtbiotop-Regeneration wird hingewiesen.
    Description: Macrofossil investigations had been made of a submerged mire covered by marsh clay nearby Rechtenfleth/Krs. Wesermünde (Federal Republic of Germany). The results point out a repeated change of the vegetation. The peat formation started with an alder swamp. Sedge meadows, reed associations and sphagnum bogs followed later. The applicability of the results for regeneration of moist locations is demonstrated.

    Description: Die Pflanzengesellschaften verschiedener feuerländischer Hochmoore wurden nach der Methode von BRAUN-BLANQUET untersucht. Die untersuchten Moore liegen im argentinischen Teil von Feuerland in der Nähe von Ushuaia. Das vorhandene Untersuchungsmaterial läßt zwei neue Hochmoor-Pflanzengesellschaften erkennen: Carici magellanici- phagnetum fimbriati [und] Pernettyo-Sphagnetum. Das Carici magellanici-Sphagnetum fimbriati entspricht dem europäischen Caricetum limosae. Das Pernettyo-Sphagnetum gehört (nur dieses kann bislang gesagt werden) zur Oxycocco-Sphagnetea. Über eine endgültige Zuordnung kann erst entschieden werden, wenn weiteres Untersuchungsmaterial aus den Hochmooren der Südhemisphäre vorliegt. Die chemischen Kennwerte ähneln denjenigen der norddeutschen Hochmoore. Die höheren pH-‚ K-, Ca-‚ Mg- und Na-Werte zeigen die Meeresnähe der feuerländischen Hochmoore an.
    Description: The plant communities of various raised bogs of the Tierra del Fuego were investigated according to the method BRAUN-BLANQUET. The investigated bogs are in the Argentine part of Tierra del Fuego in the vicinity of Ushuaia. The available examination material shows two new bog plant communities: Carici magellanici-Sphagnetum fimbriati [and] Pernettyo-Sphagnetum. The Carici magellanici-Sphagnetum fimbriati corresponds to the European Caricetum limosae. The Pernettyo-Sphagnetum belongs to the Oxycocco-Sphagnetea. Further classification can be decided only after more material from the bogs of the southern hemisphere available for examination. The characteristic chemical values are similar to those of the North-German raised bogs. The higher pH-, K-, Ca-, Mg- and Na-values indicate that the bogs of Tierra del Fuego are close to the ocean.

El Carici magellanici-Sphagnetum fimbriati corresponde al Caricetum limosae de Europa. El Pernettyo-Sphagnetum pertenece a Oxycocco-Sphagnetea. No se puede decidir sobre una clasificacion mäs detallada hasta que haya mas material exploacion de las turberas sfagnosas del hemisferio sur. Los valores caracteristicos quimicos se parecen a aquellos de las turberas sfagnosas del norte de Alemania. Los contenidos mäs elevados de pH, K, Ca, Mg y Ca demuestran que las turberas sfagnosas de la Tierra del Fuego se encuentran el mar.

    Description: Im Nordosten von Uruguay wurden Wasserpflanzengesellschaften und Niedermoore untersucht. Flache Tümpel werden von Pflanzengesellschaften besiedelt, in denen Jussiaea repens, Nymphoides humboldtiana, Hydrocleis nymphoides und Echinodurus andrieuxii dominieren. Zusätzlich gibt es Gewässer mit ausgedehnten Azolla-Beständen. In der Talaue des Rocha-Flusses finden sich Quellmoore, die von einer hochwüchsigen Cyperacee (Androtrichum giganteum) geprägt werden. Manche küstennahen Dünentäler sind mit Niedermooren ausgefüllt, deren Vegetation physiognomisch an Kleinseggenrieder erinnert. Dort finden sich Eleocharis sellowiana, Paspalum pumilum, Triglochin montevidense und eingestreut auch Juncus acutus.

In addition there are ponds which are extended Azolla-habitats. Spring-water fens appear in the water meadows of the Rocha-river. They are dominated by a sedge species, named Androtrichum giganteum. Between the coastel dunes fens grow up, which remind of the Parvo-Caricetum in the northern hemisphere. There Eleocharis sellowiana, Paspalum pumilum, Triglochin montevidense and occasionally Juncus acutus are found.

    Description: 1977 wurde - ausgelöst durch bauliche Maßnahmen - in einer sechsmonatigen Notgrabung der westlich anschließende Teil der schon seit 1952 bekannten mittelpaläolithischen Fundstelle Salzgitter-Lebenstedt untersucht. Die pflanzlichen Großreste (Früchte, Samen, Gewebereste der Hauptfundschicht Einheit C) zeigen ein gemäßigt subarktisches Klima an, das neben kälteertragenden Arten auch wärmebedürftigen Pflanzensippen ein Fortkommen gestattete. Tümpel und Wasserlachen wurden von Laichkrautrasen eingenommen, Seggenrieder besiedelten die umgebenden semiterrestrischen Bereiche (Niedermoore). Holzreste von Birke und Kiefer weisen auf eine lichte Parktundra hin. Zeitlich gehört diese Artenkonstellation in kaltzeitliche Interstadiale. Die über der Einheit C liegenden Strata A und B müssen nach ihren pflanzlichen Makrofossilien in einem kälteren Abschnitt abgelagert worden sein. Darüber wird an anderer Stelle berichtet werden.
    Description: The middle palaeolithic site of Salzgitter-Lebenstedt, known already since 1952, was subject to examination over a period of six months − caused by building measures - in 1977. The plant macrofossils (fruits, seeds, tissues) of the stratum C indicate a moderate subarctic Climate which, in addition to arctophilous plant taxa, also permitted thermophilous species to thrive. The ponds and puddles were occupied by pondweed associations. The surrounding areas (fens) were colonized by sedge reeds. Wood residues of the species birch and pine indicate a sparse tree-tundra. Chronologically, these vegetation patterns developed in glacial interstadials. According to the macrofossil investigations the strata A and B, which are situated above the layer C, must have been deposited in a colder period. On these strata it will be reported in another paper.

    Description: Es wird der 1976 angelegte Regenerationsversuch beschrieben, er soll helfen, folgende Fragen zu beantworten: Ist Bunkerde notwendig? Falls ja, welche Mächtigkeit? Ist Planierung vorteilhaft? Welcher Feuchtezustand sollte angestrebt werden? Die hydrologischen Ergebnisse lauten: - Nach mehreren Trockenjahren (1972/76) hat das Moor bis 1980 mehr als 350 mm Niederschlag im Torf gespeichert, dabei ist die Mooroberfläche bis zu 20 cm aufgequollen. - Die Oberfläche des (Grund-)Stauwassers im Moor ist von 100 cm unter Flur bis zur Mooroberfläche angestiegen, in Mulden steht es zeitweilig bis zu 15 cm über Gelände. - Die höhenmäßigen Unterschiede der Stauwasser-Oberfläche zwischen den Vernässungs-Versuchsvarianten "feucht - naß - sehr naß" betragen jeweils 5-6 cm. - Der erste Oberflächen-Abfluß wurde nach der Schneeschmelze im März 1979 gemessen, er trat während der folgenden Winter regelmäßig auf. - Der Grundwasserspiegel im Liegenden (pleistozäner Sand) ist von 1976 bis 1980 um rd. 175 cm angestiegen; das Grundwasser unter dem Moor ist damit wieder schwach gespannt.
    Description: The field experiments for bog regeneration, started in 1976, are described. The following questions shall be answered: - Is top spit necessary? If it is so, in which thickness? - Is levelling advantageous? - Which soil moisture is the best? The hydrological results are: - After several dry years (1972/76) the peat layer has until 1980 stored more than 350 mm rainfall. Thereby the peat surface is swollen up by about 20 cm. - The surface of the ground-water (damned-water) in the peat layer has risen by more than 100 cm up to the peat surface, in shallow bog hollows the water level stands from time to time up to 15 cm above the peat surface. - The height differences between the moisture plots "most - wet - very wet" are 5-6 cm respectively. - The first surface run-off was measured after snow melting in March 1979, in the following winters run-off took place regularly. - From 1976 to 1980 the ground-water layer in the sand subsoil rose about 175 cm, since then the ground-water in the sand has a shallow pressure into the peat layer.

    Description: Großrestuntersungen aus den Torfschichten eines Hochmoores bei Sellstedt (Krs.Cuxhaven) zeigten vielfältigen Vegetationswechsel. Die Moorbildung begann mit einem Birkenbruchwald. Später folgten verschiedene Hochmoorgesellschaften (Scheuchzerio-Caricetum limosae, Sphagnetum magellanici, Sphagnetum papillosi, Sphagnetum imbricati u.a.). Ein alternierender Bult- Schlenkenwechsel, wie früher vielfach angenommen, konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden. Neue Gesichtspunkte zu den Ursachen der Vegetationsumschichtungen werden diskutiert.
    Description: In a bog near Sellstedt (Kr. Cuxhaven) macrofossil investigations have been made. By the results various plant successions have been pointed out. The development of the mire started with a birch swamp. Later, different bog plant-associations followed (Scheuchzerio-Caricetum limosae, Sphagnetum magellanici, Sphagnetum papillosi, Sphagnetum imbricati). An alternating hummock-hollow formation process, as assumed in former days, could not be observed. New aspects of the causes for the shift of the vegetation are discussed.

    Description: A discussion is presented on nickel cadmium battery life tests using reconditioning and some comparative tests not using reconditioning. The discussion is aimed at the program application part of the testing. The goals of the program were to get an increased utilization out of the battery system in geosynchronous orbit. An attempt was made to push the depth of discharge operation up around 80 to 85 percent and the intent with the reconditioning program was to extend this type of utilization out towards a 10-year life and attune the voltage regulation.

    Description: After using all the instrumentation that is available on a nickel hydrogen battery it will be subjected to the same low earth orbit cycles experienced by the sixty amphere hour nickel cadmium batteries now being flown on some low earth orbit missions. The objective of the test is to demonstrate real differences between the two batteries. In order to simulate flight conditions, the thermal environment and criteria for charge control will vary. The depth of discharge will be increased and testing will continue until some failures or some degradation or spread between cell performances are revealed. Different charge control modes are being considered in order to demonstrate a reasonable life for the nickel hydrogen battery.

    Description: An experiment to obtain some flight experience with a nickel-hydrogen battery in low earth orbit is described. The battery was built to be as compatible with the satellite bus as possible because the satellite bus is used for recharge power. The battery is mounted on an experimental pallet on the satellite. It has its own charge control system, a modification of an existing system that is used for nickel-cadmium, which primarily uses temperature compensated voltage as its criteria. Also, on the pallet is a load bank, a resistive load band, which allows switch to various load regimes. There is some other equipment on the satellite such as the nickel-hydrogen battery to power it. Monitors attached to the 21-cell battery are described.

    Description: A nylon separator was placed in a flooded condition in K0H solution and heated at various high temperatures ranging from 60 C to 110 C. The weight decrease was measured and the molecular weight and decomposition product were analyzed to determine: (1) the effect of K0H concentration on the hydrolysis rate; (2) the effect of K0H concentration on nylon degradation; (3) the activation energy at different K0H concentrations; and (4) the effect of oxygen on nylon degradation. The nylon hydrolysis rate is shown to increase as K0H concentration is decreased 34%, giving a maximum rate at about 16%. Separator hydrolysis is confirmed by molecular weight decrease in age of the batteries, and the reaction of nylon with molecular oxygen is probably negligible, compared to hydrolysis. The extrapolated rate value from the high temperature experiment correlates well with experimental values at 35 degrees.

    Description: The series resistance and diode quality factor are used for evaluation of solar cell performance. These parameters are normally deduced from the terminal I-V characteristics under forward bias. The method produces a smaller series resistance and a larger value for diode quality factor than appropriate for the device when operating as a solar cell. It is suggested that the diode quality factor be determined from measured saturated photocurrent, open circuit voltage characteristics and the series resistance be measured with an r-f bridge or calculated from a measurement of the surface sheet resistance.

Concentrated sunlight is obtained by using an acrylic Fresnel lens; the simulated sunlight source is a short arc Xenon lamp. Average illumination levels during the tests are inferred from an assumed linear relationship between short circuit current and illumination. The linearity assumption is investigated for 0.3 alpha cm base resistivity silicon cells and found to be valid. Some typical results are presented to illustrate the type of information obtained during the testing.

    Description: The results of an experiment to test storage effects on electric cells of a battery are presented and discussed. The type of cells were the 20 amp-hour OAO type. The various modes that were tested were the integration type mode, the trickle charge, the discharge shorted and the discharged OCV (open current voltage). Every six months the cells were reconditioned and approximately two weeks of tests were performed. The tests included three capacity checks, two zero-degree overcharge tests and an internal short test (the cells are shunted for 16 hours, the shunt removed and allowed to stand on local circuit recovery for 24 hours). The integration pack was discontinued after three years and the trickle charge shorted packs after five years.

    Description: Solar array power systems for the space construction base are discussed. Nickel cadmium and nickel hydrogen batteries are equally attractive relative to regenerative fuel cell systems at 5 years life. Further evaluation of energy storage system life (low orbit conditions) is required. Shuttle and solid polymer electrolyte fuel cell technology appears adequate; large units (approximately four times shuttle) are most appropriate and should be studied for a 100 KWe SCB system. A conservative NiH2 battery DOD (18.6%) was elected due to lack of test data and offers considerable improvement potential. Multiorbit load averaging and reserve capacity requirements limit nominal DOD to 30% to 50% maximum, independent of life considerations.

Three temperatures were used and several different storage temperatures. Discharge rate generally on the nominal discharges were 0.1 amp, 0.5 amp, and 1 amp. Tests results show that the crimp seals are inadequate, especially for the SO2 cells. Normal discharges present no hazards. All cells discharge to zero. The problem of lithium cell explosions, such as occurred during off-limits testing, is discussed.

    Description: The long duration exposure facility mission places temperature requirements of from -30 F to +150 F on the batteries to be used. A hermetically sealed lithium sulfur dioxide cell was tested to predict what the temperature of the battery would be over a given spectrum of temperatures of operation. Near the end of cell discharge, as the voltage started collapsing, a very high heat output rise due to chemical reaction took place. However, if the cells were thermally insulated, they vented, ignited, and burned if an attempt was made to discharge them all the way. The cells do not go into reversal. It was determined that the root of the problem was probably the chemical reaction between the lithium and the acetonitrite solvent. A redesigned cell is discussed as well as some alternates.

    Description: Because of the disintegration of LaNi5 as the lattice expands on absorbing hydrogen, a nickel hydrogen cell similar to a nickel cadmium cell was designed. The positive electrode is wrapped in a microporous separator and the leads are insulated. A negative conducting grid is inserted and welded to the top of the can into an open ended container which is then turned upside down and filled so that LiNa5 powder occupies all the space not used by the rest of the components. The bottom of the can is then welded on. A fill tube is located either on the bottom or on the top of the can. When welded shut, the cell is put into a pressure bomb and the lanthanum nickel is activated at about 1,000 pounds of hydrogen. Electrolytes are added to the cell as well as whatever amount of hydrogen precharge desired, and the cell is sealed. Advantages and disadvantages of the cell are discussed.

    Description: Values for the capacity loss with time, naturally on open circuit stand, and information regarding the minimum amount of circuit charge needed to keep the cell charged can be determined from the self-discharge behavior of nickel hydrogen cells. Furthermore, the rate of reaction between hydrogen and a charged nickel electrode is also open for nickel cadmium batteries. In a nickel hydrogen cell, the hydrogen is stored as pressurized gas and the cell stack with the charge that is oxidized nickel-hydroxide electrode is in direct contact with the hydrogen. Therefore, the rate of reaction can be measured easily and precisely by monitoring the charge, the change in hydrogen pressure with time. Measures made on twelve 15 ampere hour nickel hydrogen cells of different stack configurations built for COMSAT are discussed.

    Description: The design and operations of a low cost, high rate thermal cycling facility designed for LEO conditions is described. Thermal cycling facilities were constructed with various design criteria. Some were designed to duplicate as closely as possible the conditions a cell or module would encounter while in orbit about the Earth. A typical facility to perform this type of cycling was a large vacuum system with liquid nitrogen cooled walls. The cells were heated by an AMO spectrum solar simulator, then a shutter was closed allowing the cells to give up their heat to the cold walls. This system was good at duplicating the orbital conditions but was slow and very costly to operate. Other systems used a gas atmosphere and heated the cells with radiant heat and cooled the cells by moving them into close proximity to a cold plate. The systems greatly increased the cycle times. Other systems moved the heating and cooling atmosphere into and out of the test areas and achieved reasonable cycle rates. All these systems, however, are expensive to operate.

    Description: The results of heteroepitaxial growth of GaAs and GaAlAs directly on Si are presented, and applications to new cell structures are suggested. The novel feature is the elimination of a Ge lattice transition region. This feature not only reduces the cost of substrate preparation, but also makes possible the fabrication of high efficiency monolithic cascade structures. All films to be discussed were grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition at atmospheric pressure. This process yielded reproducible, large-area films of GaAs, grown directly on Si, that are tightly adherent and smooth, and are characterized by a defect density of 5 x 10(6) power/sq cm. Preliminary studies indicate that GaAlAs can also be grown in this way. A number of promising applications are suggested. Certainly these substrates are ideal for low-weight GaAs space solar ells. For very high efficiency, the absence of Ge makes the technology attractive for GaAlAs/Si monolithic cascades, in which the Si substrates would first be provided with a suitable p/n junction. An evaluation of a three bandgap cascade consisting of appropriately designed GaAlAs/GaAs/Si layers is also presented.

    Description: Deep level transient spectroscopy reveals that the main electron traps for one-MeV electron irradiated GaAs cells are E9c)-0.31, E(c)-0.90 eV, and the main hole trap is due to the level. Electron trap density was found to vary from 3/tens-trillion ccm for 2/one quadrillion cm 3/3.7 quadrillion cm for 21 sextillion cm electron fluence for electron fluence; a similar result was also obtained for the hole trap density. As for the grown-in defects in the Al(x)Ga(1-x)As p-n junciton cells, only two electron traps with energies of E(c)-0.20 and E(c)-0.34 eV were observed in samples with x = 0.17, and none was found for x 0.05. Auger analysis on the Al(x)Ga(1-x) As window layer of the GaAs solar cell showed a large amount of oxygen and carbon contaminants near the surface of the AlGaAs epilayer. Thermal annealing experiment performed at 250 C for up to 100 min. showed a reduction in the density of both electron traps.

This model was found to be satisfactory in predicting the I sub sc degradation of GaAs cells, but not that of silicon (Si) cells. A modification to the aforementioned model that preserves the optical wavelength dependency in the photogeneration of minority carrier pairs was described herein. Spectral Si and GaAs response and I sub sc for the Si and GaAs solar cells were discussed, and also were presented in graph form. The overall predictability of the modified model was deemed to be satisfactory.

A progress using a high throughput MO-CVD reactor to produce high efficiency GaAs solar cells is discussed. Thickness and doping concentration uniformity of metal oxide chemical vapor deposition (MO-CVD) GaAs and AlGaAs layer growth are discussed. In addition, new tooling designs are given which increase the throughput of solar cell processing. To date, 2cm x 2cm AlGaAs/GaAs solar cells with efficiency up to 16.5% were produced. In order to meet throughput goals for mass producing GaAs solar cells, a large MO-CVD system (Cambridge Instrument Model MR-200) with a susceptor which was initially capable of processing 20 wafers (up to 75 mm diameter) during a single growth run was installed. In the MR-200, the sequencing of the gases and the heating power are controlled by a microprocessor-based programmable control console. Hence, operator errors can be reduced, leading to a more reproducible production sequence.

    Description: Various coatings developed in the FRG (i.e., second-surface mirrors with interference filters with and without conductive layers, conductive layers on solar-cell covers, and selective absorber coatings) have been qualified by accelerated tests under simulated space environment conditions. Experiments with coatings and solar cells have shown, however, that the thermo-optical behavior can differ considerably when performed on the ground and in space because of the great difficulty in simulating the space environment realistically. The objective of this experiment is to qualify these coatings under realistic space environment conditions. In addition, the experiment will provide design criteria, techniques, and test methods to insure control of the combined space and spacecraft environment effects, such as contamination, electrical conductance, and optical degradation, on the coatings. Data to be measured include the temperature of the samples, the electrical resistance of the conductive layers of the samples, the short circuit current of the solar-cell modules, and the deposition of contaminants on the samples (using quartz crystal microbalances (QCM's)).

    Description: A model that explains the flat-spot power loss phenomenon is presented. Evidence suggests that the effect is due to localized metallurgical interactions between the silicon substrate and the contact metallization. These reactions are shown to result in localized regions in which the P-N junction is destroyed and replaced with a metal semiconductor-like interface. The effects of thermal treatment, crystallographic orientation, junction depth, and metallization are shown along with a method of preventing the effect through the suppression of vacancy formation at the free surface of the contact metallization. Data indicating the effectiveness of a TiN diffusion barrier in preventing the effect are also given.

    Description: The spectral thermal optimization of solar cell configurations for various solar panel applications is considered. The method of optimization depends upon varying the solar cell configuration's optical characteristics to minimize panel temperatures, maximize power output and decrease the power delta from beginning of life to end of life. Four areas of primary investigation are: (1) testing and evaluation of ultraviolet resistant coverslide adhesives, primarily FEP as an adhesive; (2) examination of solar cell absolute spectral response and corresponding cell manufacturing processes that affect it; (3) experimental work with solar cell manufacturing processes that vary cell reflectance (solar absorptance); and (4) experimental and theoretical studies with various coverslide filter designs, mainly a red rejection filter. The Hughes' solar array prediction program has been modified to aid in evaluating the effect of each of the above four areas on the output of a solar panel in orbit.

    Description: Normal isotopic silicon contains 3.05% of Si-30 which transmutes to P-31 after thermal neutron absorption, with a half-life of 2.6 hours. This reaction is used to introduce extremely uniform concentrations of phosphorus into silicon, thus eliminating the areal and spatial inhomogeneities characteristic of chemical doping. Annealing of the lattice damage in the irradiated silicon does not alter the uniformity of dopant distribution. Transmutation doping also makes it possible to introduce phosphorus into polycrystalline silicon without segregation of the dopant at the grain boundaries. The use of neutron transmutation doped (NTD) silicon in solar cell research and development is discussed.

    Description: A novel cover slide is reported which increases solar cell output by reducing the reflection of light from the cover slide surface and by redirecting incident light so that none falls on the collection grids of the cell. The new cover slide is fabricated with a sawtooth surface having a periodicity equal to that of the solar cell grids. This configuration refracts the light so that it is directed onto the semiconductor surface between the grid lines. Conventional grid patterns obstruct 7-10 percent of the light incident on the cell; at least half of this loss has been recovered by using the sawtooth cover slide. In addition, surface reflection from the conventional coated cover slide is suppressed by presenting a second surface to any light reflected at the first plane of contact. This double reflection results in a greater reduction of the reflection loss from the cover slide than does an antireflection coating on a flat surface.

    Description: Increased solar cell efficiencies are attained by reduction of surface recombination and variation of impurity concentration profiles at the n(+) surface of silicon solar cells. Diagnostic techniques are employed to evaluate the effects of specific materials preparation methodologies on surface and near surface concentrations. It is demonstrated that the MOS C-V method, when combined with a bulk measurement technique, yields more complete concentration data than are obtainable by either method alone. Specifically, new solar cell MOS C-V measurements are combined with bulk concentrations obtained by a successive layer removal technique utilizing measurements of sheet resistivity and Hall coefficient.

    Description: Quantitative analysis of the electron beam-induced current and the dependence of the effective diffusion length of the minority carriers on the penetration depth of the electron beam were employed for the analysis of the carrier recombination characteristics in heavily doped silicon layers. The analysis is based on the concept of the effective excitation strength of the carriers which takes into consideration all possible recombination sources. Two dimensional mapping of the surface recombination velocity of P-diffused Si layers will be presented together with a three dimensional mapping of minority carrier lifetime in ion implanted Si. Layers heavily doped with As exhibit improved recombination characteristics as compared to those of the layers doped with P.

    Description: One potential means of improving the efficiency of solar cells especially after space irradiation is to incorporate built-in fields into the device through the use of impurity doping gradients. A detailed numerical calculation of solar cell performance has been used to study various types of doping gradients. In general, the predicted improvements in performance have been less than previously reported due to various device effects such as, high injection and the dependence of lifetime on doping density.

    Description: Laboratory tests and flight experiments showed that solar cells can be produced in quantity, that they are suitable for space flight applications, and that the power produced ranged from 20 to 35% more than that of conventional cells. In a benign flight environment, the cells degraded at approximately the same rate as conventional cells. In synchronous orbit, the rate exceeded that of conventional cells, but high efficiency cells still showed significant power advantage after two years. Irradiation test results showed the voltage-temperature coefficients to be comparable to conventional cells. However, current-temperature coefficients were not only higher initially, but also increased significantly with irradiation. Although thin cells with good performance characteristics were made, significant problem areas pertinent to production were disclosed, particularly for cells with thickness of 0.100 mm or less. The overall program led to the use of advanced high efficiency cells on the International Sun-Earth Explorer solar panels.

    Description: Estimating the energy cost of producing and delivering an energy product involves the quantitative determination of all relevant energy flows and the aggregation of these flows into meaningful indices of system performance. Five emerging energy technologies are subjected to energy analysis. The energy delivered by each is substantially greater than the energy consumed during construction and lifelong operation of the system. Net energy analysis can provide interesting and perhaps useful information regarding specific technologies, but it does not necessarily provide additional information essential to the making of decisions regarding those technologies.

    Description: The application of solar energy to agricultural and industrial process heat requirements is discussed. This energy end use sector has been the largest and it appears that solar energy can, when fully developed and commercialized, displace from three to eight or more quads of oil and natural gas in U.S. industry. This potential for fossil fuel displacement in the agricultural and industrial process heat area sector represents a possible savings of 1.4 to 3.8 million barrels of oil daily.

    Description: Alternate energy conversion methods such as ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC), wind power, geothermal wells and biomass conversion are being explored, and re-examined in some cases, for commercial viability. At a time when United States fossil fuel and uranium resources are found to be insufficient to supply national needs into the twenty-first century, it is essential to broaden the base of feasible energy conversion technologies. The motivations for development of these four alternative energy forms are established. Primary technical aspects of OTEC, wind, geothermal and biomass energy conversion systems are described along with a discussion of relative advantages and disadvantages of the concepts. Finally, the sentiment is voiced that each of the four systems should be developed to the prototype stage and employed in the region of the country and in the sector of economy which is complimentary to the form of system output.
