A double-pointed wooden throwing stick from Schöningen, Germany: Results and new insights from a multianalytical study.

PLoS One

Department of Hunter-Gatherer Archaeology, Niedersächsisches Landesamt für Denkmalpflege (Lower Saxony State Office for Cultural Heritage), Hannover, Germany.

The site of Schöningen (Germany), dated to ca. 300,000 years ago, yielded the earliest large-scale record of humanly-made wooden tools. These include wooden spears and shorter double-pointed sticks, discovered in association with herbivores that were hunted and butchered along a lakeshore.

Aiming at the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency in manual operation during the pulping process of rice seedling nursing in thin mud in hilly and mountain areas, this paper designed a new type of paddy field blade for seedling nursing, and utilized a rice nursery pulper to help manual operation complete the pulping process. It created a mathematical model of mud-throwing mass and operating power in the operation process of paddy field blade, and obtained the main structure factors that influenced the mud-throwing mass and operating power of paddy field blade, which included the area of mud splashing board, the angle between the front cutting edge and the mud splashing board, and the inclination angle between the front cutting surface and the mud splashing board. To further analyze the degree of influence of the blade's main structure parameters on mud-throwing mass and operating power, it used EDEM discrete element simulation software to establish a discrete element simulation model of paddy field blade and mud particle system, performed simulation analysis with the method of orthogonal experimental design, and conducted a bench test for comparison.

Upwelling and mud banks are two prominent oceanographic features in the coastal waters along the south west coast of India during the southwest monsoon (MON) season. The present study investigates the microbial diversity in the coastal environments of Alappuzha, India, where upwelling and mud banks co-exist. Water samples were collected from three stations, M1, M2, and M3, on a weekly basis to estimate the physico-chemical parameters and microbial abundance (MA).

Reproductive modes are diverse and unique in anurans. Selective pressures of evolution, ecology and environment are attributed to such diverse reproductive modes. Globally forty different reproductive modes in anurans have been described to date.
