Table 1. Regression models of the wheat residual mass and incubation time.
Treatments | y = y0(1−a·e-kt) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
y0 | a | k | R2 | |
Aerobic condition | 36.71 | 66.17 | 0.022 | 0.96 |
Anaerobic condition | 38.55 | 65.2 | 0.014 | 0.98 |
Note: y is the percentage of the initial mass remaining at time t (months); y0 is the asymptotic value when time is ∞, a is the percentage of the initial mass of material subject to loss; k is the decomposition rate constant calculated by the least-squares method of fitting the model (d-1); t is the incubation time (months); and R2 is a correlation coefficient.
