protein encapsulated in CNTs by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Here we mainly explore the<br />

importance of the diameter selectivity a spontaneous encapsulation of a model protein in the CNT. The<br />

investigated globular protein was observed to enter the CNT with a suitable size. If the CNT grows<br />

larger, the protein seems not to enter the CNT actively with the limited time scale. While the CNT gets<br />

smaller, the protein was jammed partially in the tube mouth although there is enough space in the<br />

cavity of the CNT to fit the protein. By plotting the free energy change in this process, the energy<br />

barrier was observed. To the spontaneous insertion process, the suitable diameter of the CNT tends to<br />

be a key factor. The overlarge CNT makes it difficult because of the insufficient protein-CNT van der<br />

Waals attraction, whereas too small a CNT hinders the process due to the resistance from destroying<br />

hydrogen-bond networks of the solvent and the conformational entropy loss of the protein.<br />

Plant root water uptake is a key way<br />

the research on water transforming patterns in the SPAC. So understanding the water absorption<br />

patterns of plant root system is a base to recognize the SPAC. Recently there are many papers dealing<br />

with the studies of the water absorption patterns of plant root system but the researched plants are<br />

mostly focused on crops and the main researched areas are the regions with adequate precipitation.<br />

There are only a few studies dealing with the water absorption of natural plants in extreme arid desert<br />

regions. This paper studied the root water absorption patterns of Populus euphratica and established the<br />

corresponding mathematical model based on the data of root density and soil water dynamics in root<br />

zone in desert riparian forest in extreme arid region.The finite difference method was used to discrete<br />

the soil water movement equation with evaporation boundary conditions, and the procedure of the<br />

numerical simulation of the model was programmed. The results of numerical simulation analysis of<br />

soil water movement in root zone of Populus euphratica showed that the simulation values were<br />

consistent well with the measurement values with a precision ranging between 92% and 98%. This<br />

work provides a theoretical basis for the study of water movement in the SPAC.<br />
