土壤物理质量指标研究进展及在矿区环境中的应用展望

对土壤物理质量指标在国内外的研究进展进行了系统总结,在矿区环境中的应用进行了展望,构建了矿区环境土壤物理质量指标体系。常规指标的研究集中于耕作或人为干扰对指标影响的定量研究及物理、化学和生物学指标的相互影响。国外提出并应用了许多非常规指标来对土壤物理质量进行评价,结合常规指标,可以对自然或人为扰动情况下,土壤损伤及退化问题进行深入研究。采煤沉陷对土壤物理质量的影响是一个系统和复杂的过程,我国矿区土壤环境的研究,应该基于不同的研究目的,选择正确的常规和非常规指标来对矿区土壤物理质量进行系统的评价、表征及定量化。构建的矿区环境土壤物理质量指标体系,具有一定的参考和应用价值。     

Modeling of food security and ecological footprint of coastal zone of Bangladesh

This paper presents the present status of food security and ecological footprint, an indicator of environmental sustainability of the coastal zones of Bangladesh. To estimate the present status of the food security and ecological footprint of the coastal zone of Bangladesh, primary and secondary data were collected, and the present status of food security and environmental degradation (in terms of ecological footprint) were calculated. To estimate the household food security, primary data were also collected from all the households in a representative selected village. A quantitative method for computation of food security in grain equivalent based on economic returns (price) is developed, and a method of measuring sustainable development in terms of ecological footprint developed by Wackernagel is used to estimate the environmental sustainability (Wackernagel and Rees in Our ecological footprint: reducing human impact on the earth. New Society, Gabrioala, BC, 1996; Chambers et al. in Sharing nature’s interest-ecological footprint as an indicator of sustainability. Earthscan, London, 2000). Overall status of food security at upazila levels is good for all the upazilas except Shoronkhola, Shyamnager and Morrelgonj, and the best is the Kalapara upazila. But the status of food security at household levels is poor. Environmental status in the coastal zones is poor for all the upazilas except Kalapara and Galachipa. The worst is in the Mongla upazila. Environmental status has degraded mainly due to shrimp culture. This study suggests that control measures are needed for affected upazilas and any further expansion of the shrimp aquaculture to enhance the food security must take into account the environmental aspects of the locality under consideration.     

Mercury pollution in Wuchuan mercury mining area,Guizhou, Southwestern China: The impacts from large scale and artisanal mercury mining

To evaluate the environmental impacts from large scale mercury mining (LSMM) and artisanal mercury mining (AMM), total mercury (THg) and methyl mercury (MeHg) were determined in mine waste, ambient air, stream water and soil samples collected from Wuchuan mercury (Hg) mining area, Guizhou, Southwestern China. Mine wastes from both LSMM and AMM contained high THg concentrations, which are important Hg contamination sources to the local environment. Total gaseous mercury (TGM) concentrations in the ambient air near AMM furnaces were highly elevated, which indicated that AMM retorting is a major source of Hg emission. THg concentrations in the stream water varied from 43 to 2100 ng/L, where the elevated values were mainly found in the vicinity of AMM and mine waste heaps of LSMM. Surface soils were seriously contaminated with Hg, and land using types and organic matter played an important role in accumulation and transportation of Hg in soil. The results indicated heavy Hg contaminations in the study area, which were resulted from both LSMM and AMM. The areas impacted by LSMM were concentrated in the historical mining and smelting facilities, while Hg pollution resulted from AMM can be distributed anywhere in the Hg mining area.

基于ESEF的水生态承载力评估——以太湖流域湖州市为例

以基于生态系统服务的生态足迹(ESEF)为基础的水生态承载力评估方法,综合考虑了水量支撑、水质限定和水生态稳定三方面特征,从而实现了足迹方法对水生态系统承载能力的有效表征。然而,如何界定水产品、水资源和水污染足迹以及承载力之间的关系,是目前研究的重点和难点。以太湖流域上游湖州市为例,探讨了在考虑或不考虑水质标准与环境功能分类的情况下,如何利用求并集法或求平均值法进行基于ESEF的水生态承载力评估。研究表明,两种方法均反映出湖州市人们对水生态系统服务的消费需求超出了当地水生态系统的供给能力,需求与供给之间的差距对当地水生态系统的可持续性造成影响。综合考虑水产品供给、水量支撑和水质保障三方面因素,湖州市水生态系统可承载的人口与经济规模为现状水平的95%;如果增加对水质标准和环境功能分类的考虑,则湖州市水生态系统的承载能力仅为现状水平的79%。虽然求并集法的计算结果更有说服力,但是求平均值法则提供了在更小尺度上研究的可能。     

Assessment of groundwater potential in Tirukalukundram block of southern Chennai Metropolitan Area

Groundwater is an important resource in all major urban centres. Continuous extraction leads to degradation and depletion in the water quality which can be protected by selecting proper groundwater recharging techniques. The present study aims to determine the groundwater potential by integrating the remote sensing and geographic information system which helps to identify the locations which are in critical stage and immediate steps can be taken to recharge the groundwater. Thirukalukundram block of Kanchipuram district in Tami Nadu, India, has been chosen as study area. To demarcate the groundwater potential zone, surface attributes such as geomorphology, land use/land cover, contour map, drainage density and sub-surface attributes such as lineaments and soil maps are created using satellite imageries, toposheet, soil and geomorphology data of the study area. The thematic maps prepared using geographic information system and weights have been assigned to the attributes by considering the influence on the storage capacity of groundwater. Four categories of groundwater potential zones such as below low, low, moderate and high have been classified. From the analysis, 5% along the coastal plain area covers high groundwater potential zone, 20% of the area towards north-west and south-west hold moderate groundwater potential. 60% of the total area hold low groundwater potential zone which are located towards south-west direction. 15% of the study area contains below low groundwater potential zone in parts of south-west direction. This study helps to identify the suitable locations for extraction and recharge of groundwater.

生态足迹影响因子的定量分析

人口的膨胀和人类工业化进程的加剧，使得人类向自然界获取越来越多的资源，同时向环境源源不断的输入废弃物，已经严重超过了自然生态系统的供给能力和环境容量，生态环境日益恶化，水土流失、草场退化、植被消亡、生物多样性锐减、全球变暖等情况已经严重到难以遏制的地步，危及到人类自身的生存。在和平与发展成为世界两大主题的今天，人们越来越关注可持续发展的问题。在现有资料的基础上，利用主成分分析方法，定量地讨论了中国各省（区市）1999年生态足迹大小与其影响因子间的关系。结果表明，生态足迹的大小是各省（区市）的大中型企业个数、全社会固定生产投资等众多因子共同作用的结果，其中总人口和GDP是生态足迹大小的主要影响因子，其因子载荷量分别达到了0.940和0.913。值得一提的是非农业人口与生态足迹的相关系数超过了农业人口，这说明由于消费模式和生活水平等的差异，非农业人口对生态足迹的影响大于农业人口对生态足迹的影响。在此基础上建立了生态足迹影响因子的多元线性回归模型，以期为生态足迹在进行区域可持续发展评价的方法上提供新的思路。

邹城东滩矿区复垦土壤微生物量碳与#br# 基础呼吸的特征

探究复垦土壤微生物量碳与基础呼吸的特征及其演变归因，有助于监测复垦土壤质量演变，并为提高复垦土壤质量提供科学依据。利用“空间代替时间”的方法研究了邹城东滩矿区复垦土壤微生物量碳（MBC）与基础呼吸（SBR）随复垦年垦的变化及其与土壤环境因子的关系。结果表明：复垦土壤MBC和微生物熵（qSMBC）随复垦年限呈增加趋势；复垦土壤SBR均显著高于对照，土壤代谢熵（qCO2）随复垦年限趋于降低，复垦后土壤微生物量逐渐恢复，同时土壤微生物对碳源利用效率逐渐提高，说明土壤环境逐渐有利于土壤微生物的生长。土壤MBC与碱解氮、总氮和有机碳呈极显著正相关（p＜0.01），反映土壤养分缺乏是复垦后土壤微生物生长的主要限制因素。土壤代谢熵（qCO2）与土壤碱解氮、速效磷和MBC均呈极显著负相关（p＜0.01）与pH呈显著正相关（p＜0.05），说明氮磷等元素的缺乏以及较高的土壤pH环境是限制微生物生长的重要因素。这些对全面监测复垦后土壤质量的演变，并指导今后的复垦工作具有重要理论与实践意义。 关键词： 采煤塌陷区；土壤微生物量碳；土壤微生物熵；基础呼吸     

上海市能源利用碳排放足迹研究

能源利用是人类生存的基础和前提,对其碳足迹及生态压力进行研究具有重要意义.本文运用碳排放足迹的相关含义及研究方法,计算得出1995-2006年上海市能源利用的总碳足迹、各能源类型和产业类型的碳足迹、碳足迹的产值和生态压力值.并以此为基础,利用岭回归函数进行STIRPAT模型拟合,进一步研究经济发展与碳排放足迹之间的关系,最后提出适应性的管理策略.研究结果表明:①总碳足迹从1995年的1.05 hm~2/人上升到2006年的1.36 hm~2/人,呈现波动上升的趋势;②1995-2006年各能源利用的碳足迹及其分配率均以煤炭最大,石油次之,天然气最小,且煤炭利用的碳足迹分配率逐年下降,石油与天然气与之相反;③2001-2006年第一、二产业的碳足迹变化不明显,而第三产业与产业总碳足迹呈明显上升趋势;④能源利用的碳足迹产值从1995年的1.79万元/hm~2增加至2006年的3.79万元/hm~2,碳足迹的生态压力也从1995年的129.6上升至2006年的231.8;⑤能源利用碳足迹与经济增长关系的模型拟合研究结果中没有出现环境库兹涅茨曲线,进一步证实能源利用对环境所造成的压力增大.     

Exposure of workers in mineral processing industries in Brazil

The mining, milling and processing of uranium and thorium bearing minerals may result in radiation doses to workers. A preliminary survey pilot program, that included six mines in Brazil (two coal mines, one niobium mine, one nickel mine, one gold mine and one phosphate mine), was launched in order to determine the need to control the radioactive exposure of the mine-workers. Our survey consisted of the collection and analysis of urine samples, complemented by feces and air samples. The concentrations of uranium, thorium and polonium were measured in these samples and compared to background data from family members of the workers living in the same dwelling and from residents from the general population of Rio de Janeiro. The results from the coal mines indicated that the inhalation of radon progeny may be a source of occupational exposure. The workers from the nickel, gold and phosphate mines that were visited do not require a program to control internal radiological doses. The niobium mine results showed that in some areas of the industry exposure to thorium and uranium might occur.     

江阴市近5年生态足迹计算与分析

生态足迹理论是通过跟踪区域的资源和能源消费,将它们转化为提供这种物质流所必须的生物生产性土地面积,并与生态承载力进行比较,以此衡量区域可持续发展状态。利用生态足迹理论,计算了江阴市1997～2001年5年间的生态足迹变化过程。结果表明,江阴市的人均生态足迹供给约为0.30 hm2·cap-1,而人均生态足迹消费从1997年的1.65 hm2·cap-1提高到2001年的2.04 hm2·cap-1,生态压力不断增大,生态赤字显著提高。对江阴市生态足迹构成进行分析,因素贡献大小依次排列为：化石能源>耕地>牧草地>水域>建筑用地>林地。化石能源消费的份额最大,超过50％,与江阴市高强度的经济活动有关;与此同时,食物生产消费也占较大份额。5年间单位GDP的生态足迹呈下降趋势,表明江阴市的资源利用效率明显提高。     

巫山县生态承载力研究

由于三峡工程的开工建设,巫山县大量移民就地后靠,土地所承载的压力剧增,阻碍了巫山县社会经济的可持续发展。利用生态足迹原理和模型对巫山县2005~2010年土地生态承载力进行分析,并运用相关分析、主成分分析等方法将生态足迹指标与传统经济指标相结合,分析了巫山县社会经济的发展对生态足迹的驱动作用,为巫山县的生态建设及可持续发展提供依据及参考。结果表明：巫山县生态足迹呈现逐年增加的趋势,且近几年增加速度明显加快,而生态承载力则基本持平,人均生态赤字由2005年的1336 2 hm2增长至2010年的2194 2 hm2,说明巫山县对自然资源的消费远远超过了区域所能提供的资源供给,阻碍可持续发展。在此基础上本研究以巫山县2005~2010年的生态足迹时间序列作为模型因变量,并根据区域社会经济发展与生态足迹变化的作用机理选择了8个社会经济发展相关指标为自变量,建立多元线性回归模型。模型检验结果令人满意,并通过相关性分析、主成分分析等手段揭示了巫山县社会经济发展指标对人均生态足迹的强烈驱动作用

Economic liabilities of environmental pollution by coal mining: Indian scenario

India is the first country to introduce environmental legislation in the constitution but because of lengthy legal procedures, it is very difficult to control environmental deterioration. There are many factors responsible for this deterioration. Coal mining is one such activity where deterioration is very severe and the present communication aims this aspect. Coal is the one of the most essential mineral having large reserves in India. It’s mining and beneficiation produce a variety of pollutants. The main pollutants emitted during the processing of coal are green house gases, coal dust and acid mine drainage. Many reports on different aspects of coal mining are available including reports on emission of different pollutants but the present work is probably only of it’s kind in which the authors have tried to determine environment liability directly in terms of economy. It was found that greenhouse liabilities, coal dust liability and sulphur liability are accounted for 12.07, 5.0 and 101.97 US$, making an overall 2.4% of the total economic gains due to coal mining. During the calculations approximate number of total workers and other parameters have been taken into consideration. Who pays for this irreversible damage is a question.

高潜水位煤矿区土地利用景观格局分析与模拟预测研究——以沛北煤矿区为例

我国东部高潜水位煤矿区因煤粮复合、煤水复合、煤村复合成为我国土地复垦难度最大的典型地区之一；研究高潜水位煤矿区土地利用景观格局的时空演变规律，可为制订有效的土地复垦策略提供重要的科学依据。本研究选择位于江苏省徐州市的沛北煤矿区为例，选用1995年TM、2005年ETM+和2015年OLI遥感影像作为数据源，运用土地利用转移轨迹、景观格局指数等分析其景观格局变化特征，并采用CA-Markov模型预测了2025年研究区的土地利用景观格局。结果表明：(1) 研究区景观变化轨迹趋势明显，耕地主要流向建设用地、塌陷积水区、水域和湿地；园林地转变为建设用地和耕地；塌陷积水面积的增加主要来源于建设用地和耕地，贡献比例分别为47.68%、19.20%；(2) CA-Markov模型情景模拟结果表明：2015～2025年，耕地、水域和湿地面积减小；建设用地和塌陷积水面积明显增加；(3) 景观格局指数分析结果表明：在类型水平上，耕地、水域和湿地是主导优势地类，但耕地、塌陷积水、水域和湿地破碎化程度较高；景观水平上，景观格局总体边缘形状趋向简单。综上表明，研究区土地利用景观变化源于区域城镇化进程加快、因采矿活动导致的地表沉陷积水情况加重；建议提前编制预计塌陷区的防治及已塌陷区的规划治理方案。 关键词： 景观格局演变；煤矿区；高潜水位；土地景观格局；CA-Markov模型
