To assess the impact of drought on tree growth and survival, an irrigation experiment was initiated in 2003 in a mature pine forest, approximately doubling the annual precipitation. Tree crown transparency (lack of foliage) and leaf area index (LAI) were annually assessed. Seven irrigated and six control trees were felled in 2006, and needles, stem discs and branches were taken for growth analysis. Irrigation in 2004 and 2005, both with below-average precipitation, increased needle size, area and mass, stem growth and, with a 1-year delay, shoot length. This led to a relative decrease in tree crown transparency (-14\%) and to an increase in stand LAI (+20\%). Irrigation increased needle length by 70\%, shoot length by 100\% and ring width by 120\%, regardless of crown transparency. Crown transparency correlated positively with mean needle size, shoot length and ring width and negatively with specific leaf area. Trees with high crown transparency (low growth, short needles) experienced similar increases in needle mass and growth with irrigation than trees with low transparency (high growth, long needles), indicating that seemingly declining trees were able to 'recover' when water supply became sufficient. A simple drought index before and during the irrigation explained most of the variation found in the parameters for both irrigated and control trees.}, language = {en} } @article{Helmig2010, author = {Helmig, Ilka}, title = {Nitty - fontnames illustrated}, series = {Slanted}, journal = {Slanted}, number = {11}, publisher = {Slanted Publishers}, address = {Karlsruhe}, issn = {1867-6510}, pages = {68 -- 69}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PenneProfittlichRingbecketal.2010, author = {Penne, Jochen and Profittlich, Martin and Ringbeck, Thorsten and Buxbaum, Bernd}, title = {Touchless detailed 3D scan of human hand anatomy using time-of-flight cameras}, series = {Proceedings of the International Conference on 3D Body Scanning Technologies : Lugano, Switzerland, 19-20 October 2010}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the International Conference on 3D Body Scanning Technologies : Lugano, Switzerland, 19-20 October 2010}, editor = {D, Nicola D'Apuzzo}, publisher = {Hometrica Consulting}, address = {Z{\"u}rich}, isbn = {978-3-033-02714-5}, pages = {361 -- 369}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{EgliAyerPeteretal.2010, author = {Egli, Simon and Ayer, Fran{\c{c}}ois and Peter, Martina and Eilmann, Britta and Rigling, Andreas}, title = {Is forest mushroom productivity driven by tree growth?

Fruiting patterns of these fungi are not yet fully understood since climatic factors alone do not completely explain mushroom occurrence. • The objective of this study was to retrospectively find out if changing tree growth following an increment thinning has influenced the diversity patterns and productivity of associated forest mushrooms in the fungus reserve La Chan{\´e}az, Switzerland. • The results reveal a clear temporal relationship between the thinning, the growth reaction of trees and the reaction of the fungal community, especially for the ectomycorrhizal species. The tree-ring width of the formerly suppressed beech trees and the fruit body number increased after thinning, leading to a significantly positive correlation between fruit body numbers and tree-ring width. • Fruit body production was influenced by previous annual tree growth, the best accordance was found between fruit body production and the tree-ring width two years previously. • The results support the hypothesis that ectomycorrhizal fruit body production must be linked with the growth of the associated host trees. Moreover, the findings indicate the importance of including mycorrhizal fungi as important players when discussing a tree as a carbon source or sink.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BragardConradDeDoncker2010, author = {Bragard, Michael and Conrad, M. and De Doncker, R.

It generalises the method proposed by Liao et al. (Bochev et al., 1996; Cai et al., 2004; Liao and Anderson, 1992) [4], [6], [20]. In this article, we employ the BDM as core of a new multilevel deformation method (MDM) which leads to vast improvements regarding robustness, accuracy and speed. We achieve this by splitting up the deformation process in a sequence of easier subproblems and by exploiting grid hierarchy. Being of optimal asymptotic complexity, we experience speed-ups up to a factor of 15 in our test cases compared to the BDM. This gives our MDM the potential for tackling large grids and time-dependent problems, where possibly the grid must be dynamically deformed once per time step according to the user's needs. Moreover, we elaborate on implementational aspects, in particular efficient grid searching, which is a key ingredient of the BDM.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PothMonzonTippkoetteretal.2010, author = {Poth, Sebastian and Monzon, Magaly and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Lignocellulosic biorefinery : process integration of hydrolysis and fermentation}, series = {Proceedings / 11th European Workshop on Lignocellulosics and Pulp : August 16 - 19, 2010, Hamburg, Germany}, booktitle = {Proceedings / 11th European Workshop on Lignocellulosics and Pulp : August 16 - 19, 2010, Hamburg, Germany}, publisher = {vTi}, address = {Hamburg}, pages = {65 -- 68}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{UibelBlass2010, author = {Uibel, Thomas and Blaß, Hans Joachim}, title = {A new method to determine suitable spacings and distances for self-tapping screws}, series = {Meeting ... / International Council for Research and Innovation in Building and Construction, Working Commission W18 - Timber Structures}, volume = {43}, booktitle = {Meeting ... / International Council for Research and Innovation in Building and Construction, Working Commission W18 - Timber Structures}, publisher = {Lehrstuhl f{\"u}r Ingenieurholzbau und Baukonstruktionen}, address = {Karlsruhe}, issn = {1864-1784}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The determination of spacing, edge and end distance requirements for self-tapping screws requires numerous and comprehensive insertion tests.
