2001—2020年合肥市空气质量变化趋势研究

为系统分析合肥市长时间序列空气质量变化特征,对合肥市2001—2020年SO₂、NO₂和PM₁₀,以及2013—2020年CO、O₃和PM_2.5的浓度特征开展研究。采用Mann-Kendall(M-K)时间趋势检验法分析了6项污染物的时间变化规律,同时考虑了人为活动对污染物小时浓度的影响。结果表明,PM_2.5和O₃是目前影响合肥市空气质量的首要污染物。2014年以来,合肥市PM₁₀、PM_2.5、CO和SO₂年均浓度均呈逐年下降趋势,但NO₂和O₃污染有加剧趋势。合肥市SO₂和颗粒物浓度表现为冬春季节高、夏秋季节低;O₃浓度变化趋势与之相反;NO₂和CO浓度呈秋冬季节高、春夏季节低。     

2016年长沙市环境空气质量的“周末效应”及“假日效应”

通过获取2016年长沙市连续在线观测得到的PM₁₀、PM_2.5、NO₂、O₃、CO和 SO₂逐时浓度资料，对工作日、周末、节假日（尤其是春节）的空气质量优良天数、污染物浓度变化特征进行对比分析，长沙市2016年6项污染物均表现出一定的"周末效应"现象，周末日平均浓度均低于工作日及全年的日平均浓度，其中PM_2.5最为明显；PM₁₀和PM_2.5浓度均星期一最高，星期六最低，CO和 SO₂浓度周末也均处于相对最低水平，NO₂和O₃在周末的平均浓度略低于工作日水平或与其持平。国庆假期，由于城区人口、车辆减少，长沙大气环境质量相对较好，而春节假期，由于受到烟花爆竹集中燃放的影响，PM₁₀、PM_2.5和SO₂浓度远超过全年平均水平，这在一定程度上说明人类活动对污染物浓度及大气环境质量变化具有一定的影响力。     

环境空气质量新标准对珠三角区域站空气质量评价的影响

利用粤港珠三角区域空气质量监控网中天湖、金果湾与万顷沙3个区域站2010年全年SO₂、NO₂、PM₁₀、O₃、PM_2.5与CO自动监测的数据,分析了实施环境空气质量新标准(GB 3095—2012)对这3个子站空气质量评价的影响。研究发现,若采用新标准,万顷沙的NO₂、PM₁₀和PM_2.5年均浓度将不同程度超标。这3个子站空气质量达标率下降7~28个百分点,空气污染指数从91%~99%下降至63%~91%;O₃的引入是导致空气质量达标率下降的最主要的原因;O₃将取代PM₁₀成为最主要的首要污染物,出现频率大于50%,且O₃(8 h)平均浓度的影响大于O₃ (1 h)浓度的影响。PM_2.5的纳入也是导致空气质量达标率下降的重要因素,其超标率为3%(金果湾)~16%(万顷沙)。NO₂标准的收严未对天湖与金果湾空气质量评价造成影响,但导致万顷沙NO₂的超标率从2%上升至10%,且NO₂作为首要污染物的比例达24%。     

2015—2019年抚州市临川区主要大气污染物时空变化及成因分析

选取2015—2019年抚州市临川区不同时间尺度的空气质量指数(Air Quality Index,AQI)与6种常规大气污染物监测数据,分析了临川区主要大气污染物的时空变化及影响因素。结果表明,临川区大气PM_2.5、PM₁₀、SO₂和CO年均质量浓度整体呈现下降趋势,O₃年均质量浓度逐年增加,说明临川区应警惕O₃污染的加剧。PM_2.5、PM₁₀和NO₂质量浓度的月变化趋势表现为冬高夏低的特征。此外,2015—2019年临川区大气PM_2.5、PM₁₀月均浓度与AQI的相关性极高(r＞0.96,P≤0.01),表明临川区大气污染类型为颗粒型污染。根据污染物浓度日变化规律以及相关性分析结果可知,PM_2.5、PM₁₀、SO₂、NO₂日变化趋势与AQI相似。通过对2015—2019年临川区除夕至大年初一期间大气污染物变化规律和复合污染特征的分析可以发现,2018年和2019年空气污染程度较之前的3年有所下降,说明烟花爆竹燃放禁令对春节期间空气污染的控制具有明显成效。此外,控制移动源排放成为临川区大气污染治理亟需解决的重要问题。     

2017年上半年北京市及周边地区空气质量特征分析

依托北京市、廊坊市和保定市高密度的地面空气质量监测、气象要素监测以及PM_2.5化学组分监测和后向轨迹分析等手段，对2017年上半年三地的空气质量进行分析。研究发现：三地中北京市空气质量较好，保定市较差。分污染物来看，保定市SO₂浓度水平明显高于廊坊市和北京市，颗粒物PM₁₀和PM_2.5也呈现保定市最高、北京市最低的规律。从污染物日变化来看，CO、SO₂、NO₂、PM₁₀和PM_2.5呈双峰型分布，O₃呈单峰型分布。从区域整体分布规律来看，PM_2.5和SO₂呈现明显的"南高北低"特征。PM_2.5化学组分分析结果表明：1—4月燃煤对该区域空气质量的影响较大，5—6月机动车排放的影响更为凸显。后向轨迹分析结果表明：在2017年上半年到达北京市的气流中有24%来自于北京市南部，且这些气流多为低空传输，表明区域传输对于北京市空气质量具有一定的影响。     

黑龙江省“十三五”时期生态环境质量变化及趋势预测

2014—2018年洛阳市大气污染变化特征及影响因素研究

研究采用空气质量指数法对2014—2018年洛阳市大气污染变化特征进行了分析,构建了空气污染物浓度的影响指标体系,采用灰色关联法研究了空气污染物浓度与影响因子之间的关联度,得到了影响空气污染物浓度的主要指标因子,并提出了改善洛阳市空气质量的措施。结果表明:洛阳市空气质量指数类别主要为良和轻度污染。2014—2018年空气质量为优良的天数主要出现在春季、夏季和秋季,重度污染和严重污染主要出现在冬季。2018年PM₁₀、PM_2.5、NO₂、SO₂和CO这5项污染物浓度随时间变化呈"V"型,污染主要集中在1—5月和11—12月。O₃浓度随时间变化呈倒"V"型,污染主要集中在4—9月。研究期内PM_2.5、PM₁₀和O₃是主要污染物。市区总人口、工业(综合)能源消耗量、人均生产总值、城市机动车总数、城市房屋施工面积、人均公园绿地面积、建成区绿化覆盖率和一般工业固体废物产生量等8项指标因子与PM_2.5、PM₁₀和O₃的浓度表现出高关联度或较高关联度。     

新冠肺炎疫情期间冀南地区空气质量时空变化特征

为研究新冠肺炎疫情期间冀南地区空气质量变化规律,明确防疫管控措施对空气质量的具体影响及大气污染物排放特征,笔者综合分析了研究区域的常规监测数据和部分大气超级站的PM_2.5组分数据。结果表明:疫情防控重点区域石家庄市、邢台市空气质量整体好转,细颗粒物和一次排放气态污染物浓度下降明显,PM_2.5来源中燃煤、生物质燃烧源占比上升,机动车尾气源占比下降,体现出交通管制、企业限产和道路工地扬尘管理等环保措施的有效性。疫情防控高风险区域石家庄市藁城区出现了明显的NO₂浓度降低、PM_2.5污染好转现象,而O₃浓度显著升高成为新的特征污染物。结果显示,藁城区综合防疫管控举措对本地一次排放污染物起到了明显抑制作用。疫情防控核心区域藁城区增村镇因实行最严格的封村、限行、停产等措施,人为污染源排放"触底",6项监测指标中除O₃浓度同比、环比均大幅度升高外,其他污染物浓度全时段降低,SO₂和CO昼夜差距缩小,环境质量明显优于周边乡镇。分析认为大规模持续化学消杀可能对O₃浓度升高有影响,此问题需要进一步探讨。     

辛集市"十三五"期间空气质量特征分析

重点对河北省辛集市"十三五"期间整体空气质量变化情况以及影响辛集市优良天数的2个重要参数O₃和PM_2.5的污染规律进行了分析。结果表明,辛集市"十三五"期间空气质量改善明显,优良天数整体增加,污染天数整体减少。O₃浓度及其作为首要污染物出现的天数整体呈现上升趋势,对综合指数的贡献率逐年增加;O₃污染高发期主要集中在4—9月,高值区域分布差距较大,但市区污染持续突出。PM_2.5浓度逐年下降,以PM_2.5为首要污染物的天数逐年减少;PM_2.5浓度季节变化特征整体呈现"秋冬高、春夏低"的分布特点,空间分布呈"南北高、中间低"的污染特征。     

哈大绥城市“十三五”期间大气环境容量分析

根据2016—2020年哈尔滨市、大庆市、绥化市(以下称哈大绥)国控环境空气自动监测站的SO₂、NO₂、PM_2.5监测资料,统计年鉴中行政区划、污染物排放及气象等监测数据,分析哈大绥区域环境空气质量的变化趋势和测算因子,采用A值法核定了哈大绥区域SO₂、NO₂、PM_2.5的大气环境容量。结果表明:哈大绥SO₂、NO₂、PM_2.5 3项污染物采暖季的大气环境容量均呈逐年递增趋势。通过计算环境承载能力发现,哈大绥SO₂、NO₂、PM_2.5 3项污染物在非采暖季均具有高承载能力,哈大绥非采暖季环境容量高于采暖季。哈尔滨的个别污染物仍然处于临界超载状态,为减少重污染天气,应进一步削减采暖季污染物排放量。     

A New Mathematical Approach in Environmental and Life Sciences: Gene–Environment Networks and Their Dynamics

An important research area in life sciences is devoted to modeling, prediction, and dynamics of gene-expression patterns. As clearly understood in these days, this enterprise cannot become satisfactory without acknowledging the role of the environment. To a representation of past, present, and most likely future states, we also encounter measurement errors and uncertainties. This paper surveys and improves recent advances in understanding the foundations and interdisciplinary implications of the newly introduced gene–environment networks, and it integrates the important theme of carbon dioxide emission reduction into the networks and dynamics. We also introduce some operational and managerial issues of practical working and decision making, expressed in terms of sliding windows, quadrants (modules) of parametric effects, and navigating (controlling) between such effects and directing them. Given data from DNA microarray experiments and environmental records, we extract nonlinear ordinary differential equations that contain parameters that have to be determined. For this, we employ modern (Chebychevian) approximation and (generalized semi-infinite) optimization. After this is provided, time- discretized dynamical systems are studied. A combinatorial algorithm with polyhedra sequences allows to detect the region of parametric stability. Finally, we analyze the topological landscape of gene–environment networks with its structural (in)stability. By embedding as a module and investigating CO₂ emission control and figuring out game theoretical aspects, we conclude. This pioneering work is theoretically elaborated, practically devoted to health care, medicine, education, living conditions, and environmental protection, and it invites the readers to future research.      

Assessing health consequences in an environmental impact assessment: The case of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol

In this article a comprehensive approach for the evaluation of possible health effects in an environmental impact assessment (EIA) is described, illustrated with the example of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. Unlike many EIAs, we estimated quantitatively the impact of aircraft-related pollution in terms of the number of affected people for aircraft noise annoyance, odour annoyance and hypertension. In addition, an analysis of health registry data on cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and a short survey on annoyance and risk perception were carried out. The scope of a health impact assessment depends on the situation, available knowledge and data, concern in the population about the impact and the number of people concerned. It is important to pay attention to the perception of risks and concerns from all parties involved. Moreover, the results demonstrate that far more people outside the area for which standards apply were affected than inside.     

Contaminant Profiles of Two Species of Shorebirds Foraging Together at Two Neighboring Sites in South San Francisco Bay, California

The San Francisco Bay estuary isused by over one million shorebirds during springmigration and is home to several hundred thousandduring the winter. Most shorebird use occurs in thesouthern reach of the estuary (South Bay). Thereduced water circulation and discharge fromindustrial sources in the South Bay are responsiblefor the highest levels of some trace elements in theestuary. Wintering shorebirds have been found to havestrong site fidelity to areas as small as a fewkilometers in the South Bay, which may increase theirexposure to contaminants near local point sources. Inaddition, different shorebird species foraging at thesame site have been shown to have differentcontaminant burdens. Thus, our objectives were totest whether contaminant burdens differed by species,or whether contaminant burdens differed in shorebirdscollected at adjacent sites. We examined thecontaminant profiles of two species of shorebirds,long-billed dowitchers (Limnodromus scolopaceus)and western sandpipers (Calidris mauri) thatforage together at two sites, Hayward and Newark,separated by 8 km in the South Bay. We usedmultivariate analysis of variance tests to compare thecomposition of 14 elemental analytes in their livertissues and estimated their molar ratios of Hg and Se. Composite samples were used for contaminant analysesbecause of the small body size of the shorebirds. Seven elemental analytes (Ag, Ba, Be, Cr, Ni, Pb, V)were below detection limits in a majority of thesamples so statistical analyses were precluded. Inthe measurable analytes (As, Cd, Cu, Hg, Mn, Se, Zn),we found no significant intra-site differences ofcontaminant profiles for the two species. We pooledthe samples to examine inter-site differences andfound significant differences in contaminant profilesbetween shorebirds at the neighboring sites (P = 0.03). Shorebirds at Newark had higher (P < 0.05) concentrations of As, Cd, and Se than those at Hayward. Dowitchers at Newark had concentrations of Hg and Se which were highly correlated (P < 0.003) in a mean molar ratio of 1:19, similar tothat reported in other birds. In the larger dowitcherspecies, we also examined exposure to 20organochlorine compounds. Organic analyses showedthat the dowitchers had been exposed to DDE, PCBs,dieldrin and trans-nonachlor, but with no significantdifferences in concentrations between Hayward andNewark (P > 0.05).

Geochemical assessment of metal transport in glacial till during electrokinetic remediation

This paper presents the chemical speciation and retention behavior of chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), and cadmium (Cd) prior to and after the electrokinetic remediation in glacial till soil. The speciation of the metals was predicted using the chemical speciation program MINEQL⁺. The simulations were performed for single-contaminant with only Cr(VI) or Ni, and multi-contaminants consisting of: (1) Cr(VI), Ni, and Cd; (2) Cr(III), Ni and Cd; (3) Cr(VI), Cr(III), Ni and Cd; (4) Cr(VI), Ni, and Cd with reducing agents; and (5) Cr(III), Ni, and Cd with oxidizing agent (Mn). The results showed that the speciation and distribution of cationic metals [Ni, Cd, and Cr(III)] in glacial till soil remain unaffected or slightly affected during electrokinetics. This is attributed to the high pH buffering capacity of the glacial till, leading the metals to precipitate in the soil prior to and after electrokinetics. This study showed that during electrokinetics, Cr(VI) existed as anionic complex and migrated towards the anode and the migration is maximum in case of a single-contaminant system. The study also showed that near the anode in the absence of any reducing and oxidizing agent, Cr(VI) mostly adsorbed, and some of Cr(VI) reduced to Cr(III) and migrated towards the cathode and finally precipitated due to high pH conditions. Ni and Cd remain adsorbed or precipitated due to the high pH conditions throughout the soil. Among the reducing agents, the sulfide had significant effect on the migration of metals compared to ferrous ions. While in the presence of oxidizing agent (Mn), no noticeable Cr(VI) was found in the soil sample indicating the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and the predominance of reducing conditions due to the presence of naturally occurring iron in the glacial till soil. Overall, this study provides a reasonable explanation of the speciation and distribution of chromium, nickel and cadmium during the electrokinetic remediation of glacial till soil.     

Biomonitoring of Lead, Zinc, and Cadmium in Streams Draining Lead-Mining and Non-Mining Areas, Southeast Missouri, USA

We evaluated exposure of aquatic biota to lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), and cadmium (Cd) in streams draining a Pb-mining district in southeast Missouri. Samples of plant biomass (detritus, periphyton, and filamentous algae), invertebrates (snails, crayfish, and riffle benthos), and two taxa of fish were collected from seven sites closest to mining areas (mining sites), four sites further downstream from mining (downstream sites), and eight reference sites in fall 2001. Samples of plant biomass from mining sites had highest metal concentrations, with means 10- to 60-times greater than those for reference sites. Mean metal concentrations in over 90% of samples of plant biomass from mining sites were significantly greater than those from reference sites. Mean concentrations of Pb, Zn, and Cd in most invertebrate samples from mining sites, and mean Pb concentrations in most fish samples from mining sites, were also significantly greater than those from reference sites. Concentrations of all three metals were lower in samples from downstream sites, but several samples of plant biomass from downstream sites had metal concentrations significantly greater than those from reference sites. Analysis of supplemental samples collected in the fall of 2002, a year of above-average stream discharge, had lower Pb concentrations and higher Cd concentrations than samples collected in 2001, near the end of a multi-year drought. Concentrations of Pb measured in fish and invertebrates collected from mining sites during 2001 and 2002 were similar to those measured at nearby sites in the 1970s, during the early years of mining in the Viburnum Trend. Results of this study demonstrate that long-term Pb mining activity in southeast Missouri has resulted in significantly elevated concentrations of Pb, Cd, and Zn in biota of receiving streams, compared to biota of similar streams without direct influence of mining. Our results also demonstrate that metal exposure in the study area differed significantly among sample types, habitats, and years, and that these factors should be carefully considered in the design of biomonitoring studies.     

Comparative studies on accumulation of Cr from metal solution and tannery effluent under repeated metal exposure by aquatic plants: its toxic effects

The present study demonstrates comparison of Cr accumulatingpotential by the plants of Najas indica Cham. (submerged),Vallisneria spiralis L. (rooted submerged) and Alternanthera sessilis R. Br. (rooted emergent) under repeatedmetal exposure and its effect on chlorophyll and protein concentrations. These plants were treated with different concentrations of Cr under repeated exposure in controlled laboratory conditions to assess the maximum metal accumulationpotential. The plants of V. spiralis accumulated significantly high amount of Cr under laboratory conditions incomparison to N. indica and A. sessilis. The maximumaccumulation of 1378, 458 and 201 g g^-1 dw Cr was found in the leaves of V. spiralis, N. indica and A. sessilis, respectively at 8 mg L^-1 after 9 day of Cr exposure. These plants have shown a decrease in chlorophyll andprotein concentrations with increase in Cr concentrations. In view of high accumulation of Cr in V. spiralis, the plantswere treated with different concentrations of tannery effluent collected from Common Effluent Treatment Plant, Unnao (UP). Theplants of V. spiralis treated with 100% tannery wastewatershowed the maximum accumulation (57.5 g g^-1 dw) of Cr in the roots after 10 days of exposure. The plants were foundeffective in removing Cr from solution and tannery effluent.
