红壤坡地水土保持植物措施下柑橘林地水文生态效应

根据江西水土保持生态科技园2001～2008年不同处理措施柑橘林地径流小区的降雨产流产沙的定位观测资料及2010年土壤含水量测试数据，分析了坡面尺度水土保持植物措施下柑橘林地的产流产沙及土壤水分的特征，研究了狗牙根带状覆盖、狗牙根全园覆盖、果园清耕3种措施下的蓄水保土效应。结果表明：有草被覆盖的柑橘林小区的产流产沙量明显小于柑橘清耕小区，狗牙根带状覆盖小区减流减沙效果最好，减流率为98.21%，减沙率为99.84%。在大部分土层深度，草被带状覆盖下的土壤水分含量最高，均大于清耕措施，而全园覆盖由于植物蒸腾耗水量大水分含量反而低于带状覆盖。条带植草是防治柑橘林地水土流失的有效措施，具有明显的减流减沙效应和蓄积水分作用     

The transfer of different forms of 35S to goat milk

Sulphur-35 is released during the routine operation of UK gas-cooled reactors. An experiment to determine the rates of transfer of different forms of (35)S to goat milk is described. Lactating goats received (35)S orally as single administrations of sulphate, L-methionine, or grass contaminated either through root uptake of (35)S as sulphate or through aerial deposition of (35)S as carbonyl sulphide onto the grass. Transfer was higher for (35)S administered as methionine compared with (35)S administered as sulphate. Changes in activity concentrations in milk for all sources of (35)S demonstrated two components of loss. The first component had a half-life of circa 1 d for all sources, the second was longer in goats administered carbonyl sulphide (44 d) than in all of the other treatments (circa 10 d). The rate of transfer of (35)S to milk of a further group of goats receiving (35)S-sulphate daily appeared to reach equilibrium within 30 d. Extrapolation of transfer parameters derived to other dairy ruminants is discussed.     

不同土地利用类型的地表特征参量的遥感反演研究——以猫跳河流域为例

利用2007年5月Lansat5 TM数据,运用单通道算法,基于全国遥感监测土地利用/覆盖分类体系,对贵州省猫跳河流域的地表特征参量进行了反演,得到不同土地利用类型下的典型地表特征参数值。在3种主要的土地利用类型中,林地的植被指数最高、地表温度最低,农田的植被指数最低而地表温度最高,草地介乎林地和农田之间。城镇建设用地主要表现为热岛效应,而水域则主要表现为地表温度（LST）和归一化植被指数（NDVI）的双低特征。进一步对二级土地利用类型的分析表明,由于结构、功能的不同,土地利用二级类在地表特征参量方面也表现出了有规律地变化。有助于深入认识不同土地利用类型的物理特征,可以丰富主要土地利用类型的影像分类的先验知识,有望将不同土地利用方式的生态环境效应研究推进一步     

青藏公路路堤边坡水土保持措施及效益分析

公路建设加速了区域的原有侵蚀，为了摸清公路边坡的侵蚀特征，寻找有效的防治措施，在青藏公路边坡布设不同水土保持措施的径流观测小区，进行了两年的观测（2003年和2004年），结果表明：（1）工程措施具有较好的水土保持效益，其减流（减沙）效益在第一年和第二年分别达到3883％（8189％）和48.72％（9581％），其中截排水措施的水土保持效益一方面说明公路路面来水也是边坡侵蚀的重要动力，有效拦截路面来水将会极大地减少径流和泥沙，另一方面也说明要提高公路边坡土壤侵蚀的预测能力，应该将路面来水作为重要的驱动力之一；（2）植被措施可以起到一定的减流减沙效果，其中人工植被措施有很大的潜力，其减蚀效益都在50％以上；（3）综合措施表现出了极好的水土保持效益（减流在40％以上，减沙在97％以上），尤其土工格室+植被措施，兼具水土保持与景观双重效益。该研究可以为青藏高原地区的水土保持设计和生态环境保护规划提供数据支持。〖     

Transport of 131I through the grass-cow-milk pathway at a northeast US dairy following the chernobyl accident

Following the Chernobyl accident, samples of pasture grass and fresh farm milk were collected in northern New Jersey. The time-integrated activities of ¹³¹I were used to calculate a milk transfer coefficient of 0·001 d liter⁻¹. This value is at the lower range of those previously reported. No significant difference in the value of the transfer coefficient was seen when calculated based on the integrated ¹³¹I in the total grass as compared to only the upper portion of the grass. Therefore, for this event, the height of the vegetation grazed by the cows would not have influenced the concentration of ¹³¹I in fresh milk.     

Seasonal and inter-annual variation of Beryllium-7 deposition in birch-tree leaves and grass in the northeast upland area of the Czech Republic

The activity concentrations of Beryllium-7 (⁷Be), a naturally occurring radioisotope produced in the atmosphere, were measured in leaves of birch-trees, above-ground parts of grass, soil and rainwater in the mountain massive Kralicky Sneznik (the northeast of the Czech Republic, altitude about 750 m) in the years of 2005, 2006 and 2007. Dried and ground samples of the plants and soils, and water samples from wet deposition were used to determine the ⁷Be content using a semiconductor gamma spectrometer. The ⁷Be values ranged from 147.0 to 279.6 Bq kg⁻¹, from 48.7 to 740.8 Bq kg⁻¹, from 2.1 to 8.7 Bq kg⁻¹, and from 0.6 to 1.9 Bq kg⁻¹ in birch-tree leaves, grass samples, soils, and rainwater, respectively. Insignificant inter-annual variations but significant increase in the ⁷Be activity concentrations during the spring and summer months were observed in birch-tree leaves and grass samples. The seasonal variation of the ⁷Be concentrations in grass samples correlated (R² = 0.4663 and 0.6489) with precipitation. No similar correlation was found for ⁷Be in birch-tree leaves. Beryllium-7 content in birch-tree leaves and in aerial parts of grass was mainly caused by direct transport of ⁷Be from wet deposition into aerial parts of the observed plants.     

Global fallout (137)Cs accumulation and vertical migration in selected soils from South Patagonia

The spatial distribution and vertical migration of global fallout (137)Cs were studied in soils from South Patagonia at the austral region of South America in semi-natural and natural environments located between 50-54 degrees S and 68-74 degrees W. The (137)Cs areal activity density varied from 222 to 858 Bq m(-2), and was found to be significantly positively correlated (p<0.001) with the mean annual precipitation rate. The fraction of the total activity density observed in steppe grass varied from <0.03% to 0.12% (median <0.07%) and is considerably lower than the results obtained at the South Shetland Islands (median 8%) and in other temperate environments in south-central Chile (median 0.2%). The median of the convection velocity v(s) of (137)Cs in the soil in such polar isotundra climate has been determined to be 0.056 cm y(-1). This value is higher than v(s) determined under polar climate (-0.012 cm y(-1)) and is near to the upper limit of v(s)-values determined in temperate environments from Chile (0.019 cm y(-1)). The median value of the diffusion coefficient D(s) (0.048 cm(2) y(-1)) is similar to D(s) observed in an Antarctic region (0.043 cm(2) y(-1)) and lower than D(s) in temperate regions of Chile (1.24 cm(2) y(-1)). About 35 years after the highest depositions, (137)Cs had penetrated to a depth of 6-14 cm in the Patagonian soils and can be expected to remain in the rooting zone of grass for many decades. Nevertheless, because of its low transfer to steppe grass observed at this region, the radioecological sensitivity of this ecosystem with respect to fallout radiocesium seems to be lower than in other polar regions.     

Soil-to-plant transfer of radiocaesium for selected tropical plant species in Bangladesh

Soil-to-plant transfer factors (TF) of radiocaesium (137Cs) were determined under field condition for grassy vegetation grown in Bangladesh at contaminated land in the Atomic Energy Research Establishment (AERE) campus. TF values for rice, grass and grassy/root vegetations grown in the same type of soil were also measured under pot condition. TF values of 137Cs for grassy vegetation (2.4 x 10(-2) -4.2 x 10(-2) with an average of 3.1 x 10(-2) +/-0.005) obtained under field condition were slightly lower than the values for grass and grassy/root vegetations (2.9 x 10(-2) -6.6 x 10(-2) with an average of 4.8 x 10(-2) +/-0.01 for grass and grassy vegetations and 2.3 x 10(-2) -5.6 x 10(-2) with an average of 4.0 x 10(-2) +/-0.009 for root vegetations, respectively) obtained under pot condition. However, TF values (9.0 x 10(-3) -2.6 x 10(-2) with an average of 1.9 x 10(-2) +/-0.004) obtained for rice were about a factor of 4 lower than the values obtained for grass and grassy/root vegetations. When the properties of the AERE soils as input parameters were used in the soil-plant transfer model of Absalom, the estimated TF values (4.5 x 10(-2) -6.7 x 10(-2) with an average of 5.3 x 10(-2) +/-0.006) were consistent with the measured values obtained for grass and grassy vegetations under pot condition, however, the model overestimates the TF values for rice.     

On the defensive behavior of the grass snake <Emphasis Type="Italic">Natrix natrix</Emphasis> (Linnaeus, 1758)

Demonstrative imitations in the defensive behavior of grass snakes (Natrix natrix) captured in the Galich’ya Gora Reserve (70 ind.) and Kulikovskii Forestry (13 ind.), Lipetsk oblast, have been analyzed using statistical methods. The results suggest that grass snakes can play dead and imitate a venomous snake independently of their sex, age, and experience in receiving injuries. At the same time, there is evidence that such an ability is a hereditary trait subject to natural selection.     

Trace zinc and copper concentration in roadside surface soils and vegetation—measurement of local atmospheric pollution in Alice, South Africa

Surface soil and grass samples were collected from ten locations perpendicular to a major road in Alice and were analyzed for zinc and copper. The results revealed an association between zinc concentration and distance from road traffic. An association was also revealed between soil zinc and grass zinc which suggests same source for the metal in samples. The results for copper did not show any correlation between sample concentration and distance from road traffic. Neither did it show any correlation between soil zinc and soil copper or between grass zinc and grass copper which suggests different sources for the elements.

不同种植方式对稻茬紫云英的生长及土壤养分的影响

研究绿肥作物种植方式对其生长状况及土壤特性的影响，可为长江下游农区“水稻(Oryza sativa L.)—绿肥作物”轮作模式下如何以草增粮提供科学依据。于2018~2019年在江苏省昆山市采用套播留茬、浅旋直播、板茬直播3种种植方式，研究不同绿肥种植方式对自身群体基础、越冬稳定性、生育进程、主要形态指标、产草量及还田后土壤养分动态的影响。结果表明，相同播种量水平下，浅旋直播的群体起点最高，为58.29万基本苗/hm ²；越冬稳定性以套播留茬方式最高，越冬率为94.3%。不同种植方式下生育进程递进规律总体一致，主要影响绿肥作物的营养生长期，套播留茬方式的营养生长期最长（122 d），比最短的浅旋直播方式高出20 d。套播留茬方式下的株高、茎粗及其他主要形态指标明显高出其他两种方式。套播留茬方式的鲜草产量最高，浅旋直播方式居中，板茬直播方式最低，且均超过30 000 kg·hm^-2。翻压还田后，3种方式下土壤有机质、全氮、铵态氮、硝态氮、速效磷、速效钾等土壤养分含量均有一定的增加，其中套播留茬方式增加幅度最高。     

Climate change impacts on European agriculture revisited: adding the economic dimension of grasslands

Forage and more widely grassland systems are difficult to analyze in economic terms because a large proportion of what is produced is not marketed. Economic misestimation of these farm products may dramatically alter projected climate change impacts. This study estimates the economic value of grass and assesses the impact of climatic variations on grassland–livestock systems by taking various environmental and climatic factors into account. Accordingly, grass yield responses to nitrogen inputs (N-yield functions) have been simulated using the grassland biogeochemical PaSim model and then fed into the economic farm-type supply AROPAj model. We developed a computational method to estimate shadow prices of grass production, allowing us to better estimate the effects of climatic variability on grassland and crop systems. This approach has been used on a European scale under two Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change climate scenarios (AR4 A2 and B1). Results show a significant change in land use over time. Accordingly, due to decreases in feed expenses, farmers may increase livestock, thereby increasing overall greenhouse gas emissions for all scenarios considered. As part of autonomous adaptation by farming systems, N-yield functions extending to pastures and fodders allow us to improve the model and to refine results when marketed and non-marketed crops are considered in a balanced way.     

川西亚高山植被恢复过程中的土壤和地被物水源涵养能力评价

运用以空间代替时间，以糙野青茅草地、柳树灌丛、白桦林、混交林、冷杉林为植物自然恢复的序列，采用环刀法和实地调查-水浸法研究了川西亚高山植被恢复过程中土壤和地被物的持水能力。结果表明：土壤容重随深度增加而加大、随植被恢复而降低；土壤持水能力随深度增加而降低、随植被恢复而增加，表现为混交林>冷杉林>柳树灌丛>白桦林>草地；地被物储量及其持水能力随植被恢复极显著增加，其组成由草地的凋落物为主到冷杉林时以苔藓为主；生态系统土壤和地被物的持水能力随着恢复而显著提高，表现为混交林>冷杉林>柳树灌丛>白桦林>草地。因此，亚高山植被自然恢复能显著增加区域生态系统的土壤和地被物持水，适度增加阔叶树亦有利于促进川西亚高山恢复植被的土壤持水     

洞庭湖湿地景观格局变化以及三峡工程蓄水对其影响

通过对近20 a遥感影像的解译分析,结果表明：洞庭湖湿地景观格局变化较为迅速,在几种湿地景观类型中,芦苇分布面积稳定增长,由475 km²增至751 km²,年均增加13.1 km²,湖草的分布面积比较稳定,而水面与泥滩的分布面积则大幅减少。湿地格局演变总体上呈现芦苇挤占湖草的分布空间、湖草挤占水面泥滩的态势。分析认为泥沙淤积和湖泊水情变化改变了洲滩的淹水历时,引起植被分布的变化,是影响洞庭湖湿地景观格局的主要因素。2000年后,随着泥沙淤积减缓,湖泊水情变化对湿地景观格局影响更为重要,其中三峡水库的运行使洞庭湖中、低位洲滩提前出露,淹水历时缩短,导致湖草的分布界线明显向下延伸     

垃圾填埋场覆盖层灌溉处理渗滤液的试验研究

在模拟的填埋场封场覆盖层上灌溉处理不同强度的渗滤液稀释液,研究其水量减量和主要污染物COD和NH3-N的去除效果。结果表明：一个生长季内,灌溉水量负荷12 mm/d条件下,裸土覆盖层的水量减量负荷均为7 mm/d左右,狗牙根覆盖层的水量减量负荷为7.7~11 mm/d,渗滤液原液灌溉处理时为7.7 mm/d;而灌溉渗滤液的强度从低到高,狗牙根生物量先增大后减小,狗牙根覆盖层的水量减量负荷与其生物量正相关;裸土覆盖层的COD去除率为65 %左右,NH3-N去除率为70 %~93 %;狗牙根覆盖层的COD去除率为68 %~93 %,NH3-N去除率为89 %~99 %; NH3-N的去除途径主要是转化为硝态氮和被植物吸收。渗滤液覆盖层灌溉处理有良好的水量减量和主要污染物去除效果,且有植被时效果更佳,表明填埋场封场覆盖层灌溉处理渗滤液是可行的。     

Plant Species Richness and Developmental Morphology Stage Influence Mycorrhizal Patagonia Plants Root Colonization

The objectives of this study were to determine the percentage of root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi at various levels of plant species richness and developmental morphology stages in various perennial grass, and herbaceous and woody dicots species using experimental plots during 2013 and 2014. An auger was used to obtain six replicate root + soil samples at each sampling time on each of the study parameters. Roots were washed free of soil, and percentage AM was determined. The shrub Larrea divaricata was the species which showed the lowest percentage of colonization by AM at the vegetative developmental morphology stage at the monocultures and six-species-mixtures on the experimental plots. Dicots, but not grass, species showed a greater percentage colonization by AM fungi at the greatest (i.e., six-species-mixtures) than lowest (i.e., monocultures) species richness. Although at different degrees of species richness and developmental morphology stages, the perennial grasses Nassella longiglumis and N. tenuis, the herbaceous dicot Atriplex semibaccata, and the shrubs L. divaricata and Schinus fasciculatus showed a greater (p < 0.050) percentage colonization by AM fungi during the second than the first study year. Even though it was species- and sampling time-dependent, percentage colonization by AM fungi increased as species richness also increased most of the times. Our results demonstrated that the plant species differences in percentage colonization by AM fungi in the experimental plots were species richness-, developmental morphology stage-, and sampling-time dependents.     

Radiation measurements and radioecological aspects of fallout from the cherbonyl reactor accident

Fallout from the Chernobyl reactor accident has been monitored for about one year in Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. Fifteen different short-lived, three relatively long- and one long-lived fission products were identified in air, precipitation, soil, grass and milk samples. The iodine-131 and cesium-137 concentrations in air reached 6·5 and 3 Bq m⁻³ respectively, on 6 May, 1986. The external exposure dose rate rose to five times the normal background level. It was estimated that the accumulated dose equivalent to the adult thyroid from inhaled iodine-131 averaged 96 μSv, while the body burden from inhaled radiocesium nuclides averaged 2 μSv, 1000 times lower than that corresponding to the estimated dose equivalent from ingestion of foodstuff, which averaged 2 mSv for the first year after the accident.     

The investigation of 137Cs and 90Sr background radiation levels in soil and plant around Tianwan NPP, China

(137)Cs and (90)Sr background levels in soil and plant around Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) are reported. Eighty-four soil samples and 44 plant samples were collected from March 2000 to April 2002. The samples were analyzed by gamma spectrometry and radiochemical separation procedure to quantify (137)Cs and (90)Sr radioactivities. The concentrations (Bqkg(-1) dry weight) have been observed in the range of 0.6-1.6 for (90)Sr and 1.4-6.9 for (137)Cs in soils, their average values are 1.0+/-0.3 and 4.6+/-1.6, respectively, which are relatively lower than the reported values in neighboring countries. The mean concentrations (in Bqkg(-1) fresh weight except for tea and grass which is expressed in Bqkg(-1) dry weight) of (137)Cs and (90)Sr are 0.1+/-0.03 and 7.7+/-4.1 in pine needle, 0.27+/-0.05 and 3.0+/-1.1 in tea, 0.65+/-0.19 and 2.1+/-0.3 in grass, 0.033+/-0.021 and 0.084+/-0.045 in wheat, 0.019+/-0.01 and 0.23+/-0.06 in China cabbage, and 0.009+/-0.007 and 0.024+/-0.084 in rice, respectively. The pine needle and tea can be regarded as indicator species for (90)Sr and (137)Cs. The soil-to-plant transfer factor (TF) values of (90)Sr and (137)Cs are, respectively, 0.022 and 0.031 for rice, 0.066 and 3.83 for China cabbage, 0.0088 and 0.089 for wheat, and 0.037 and 0.56 for grass.
