Simulated dynamics of carbon stocks driven by changes in land use, management and climate in a tropical moist ecosystem of Ghana

Sub-Saharan Africa is large and diverse with regions of food insecurity and high vulnerability to climate change. This project quantifies carbon stocks and fluxes in the humid forest zone of Ghana, as a part of an assessment in West Africa. The General Ensemble biogeochemical Modeling System (GEMS) was used to simulate the responses of natural and managed systems to projected scenarios of changes in climate, land use and cover, and nitrogen fertilization in the Assin district of Ghana. Model inputs included historical land use and cover data, historical climate records and projected climate changes, and national management inventories. Our results show that deforestation for crop production led to a loss of soil organic carbon (SOC) by 33% from 1900 to 2000. The results also show that the trend of carbon emissions from cropland in the 20th century will continue through the 21st century and will be increased under the projected warming and drying scenarios. Nitrogen (N) fertilization in agricultural systems could offset SOC loss by 6% with 30 kg N ha⁻¹ year⁻¹ and by 11% with 60 kg N ha⁻¹ year⁻¹. To increase N fertilizer input would be one of the vital adaptive measures to ensure food security and maintain agricultural sustainability through the 21st century.

上海浦东某氯代烃场地地下水污染现状调查

氯代烃曾经广泛用作工业清洗剂,由于过度使用和储存不当,造成严重的土壤和地下水污染.本研究选取上海浦东某1,1,1-三氯乙烷(1,1,1-TCA)污染场地作为研究对象,连续5年观测了75个监测井的地下水样品氯代烃分布.采用吹扫捕集和气相色谱联用法检测了地下水样品中氯代烃的种类和浓度,运用GMS软件构建了污染场地水文地质模型和氯代烃污染羽分布图.结果表明,氯代烃污染羽主要分布在5个区域,面积达5000 m2左右,深度主要在地下4~8 m的粘土层中,污染土壤和地下水总量为50000 m3左右;2号区域的污染情况最为严重,氯代烃浓度范围为10~1700 mg·L~(-1),发现50 m3左右的自由相(DNAPL).研究结果将为揭示该场地污染物迁移转化规律,为后续的人体健康风险评估和制定修复方案提供数据支撑.     

基于半参数面板数据模型的江苏省经济增长与水污染排放关系实证研究

本文以江苏省为研究区域,采用1990—2013年江苏省市级面板数据,基于单位根检验和面板协整检验,运用可拓展的随机性环境影响评估模型(STIRPAT)和参数、半参数固定效应回归方法,对经济增长与工业COD排放之间的关系展开研究。研究发现,江苏省经济增长与工业COD排放之间存在倒U形曲线关系,即全省工业COD排放随经济的发展呈现先增长后降低的趋势,同时人口增长对水污染物排放影响很大,二者之间的环境库兹涅茨曲线表明了经济持续发展能够协调并能解决其与水污染排放之间的困境。本研究丰富了社会经济发展与水污染关系在市级尺度层面的实证研究,为"十三五"期间江苏省水污染治理提供了政策依据。     

树坪滑坡非饱和土的土-水特征曲线试验研究

滑坡失稳是三峡库区重要的地质灾害,滑坡岩土体性质是决定滑坡是否失稳的一个重要的内在因素,而岩土体的土-水特征曲线是反映岩土体性质的一个重要指标,所以对其进行研究具有十分重要的意义。以三峡库区典型滑坡树坪滑坡为研究对象,通过采集滑坡体同一剖面不同位置和同一位置不同干密度的土样进行非饱和土的土-水力学特征试验,研究了土样位置和干密度对非饱和土的土-水特征曲线的影响。结果表明:不同位置的土样由于孔隙率和粒径级配等的不同而使其土-水特征曲线呈现形状各异;土样的干密度越大,进气值越大;在施加相同压力的情况下,土样的干密度越大,饱和度越大,即土样的干密度越大,饱和度的变化越缓慢;在一定的范围内,土样残余体积含水量随着土样干密度的增加而逐渐增大。

风险评价在中国化学品管理中的运用

随着人们对化学品有毒与无毒辨证关系的认识、对危害与风险联系的理解的不断深入,风险概念引入了中国化学品管理领域,影响着中国化学品管理的方式。笔者认为我国的化学品应在以下方面加强管理:①充分发挥风险评价和风险管理在新化学物质申报、新农药等新化学品登记、现有危险化学品管理、化学品建设项目影响评价等化学品管理专项领域中的作用;②风险评价应考虑中国的生物多样性、应符合中国的研究水平和管理能力现状、应结合化学品在中国的暴露方式和暴露程度;③风险管理应注重风险信息交流,制定并执行科学可行的质量标准。      

Screening of indicator pharmaceuticals and personal care products in landfill leachates: a case study in Shanghai,China

● A systematic framework was developed to identify i-PPCPs for landfill leachate. ● The wide-scope target analysis offered a basis for comprehensive i-PPCP screening. ● Source-specificity and representativeness analysis helped to refine i-PPCPs. ● Erythromycin, gemfibrozil and albendazole were identified as i-PPCPs for leachate. Identifying potential sources of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in the environment is critical for the effective control of PPCP contamination. Landfill leachate is an important source of PPCPs in water; however, it has barely been involved in source apportionment due to the lack of indicator-PPCPs (i-PPCPs) in landfill leachates. This study provides the first systematic framework for identifying i-PPCPs for landfill leachates based on the wide-scope target monitoring of PPCPs. The number of target PPCPs increased from < 20 in previous studies to 68 in the present study. Fifty-nine PPCPs were detected, with median concentrations in leachate samples ranging from below the method quantification limit (MQL) to 41 μg/L, and 19 of them were rarely reported previously. A total of 29 target compounds were determined to be PPCPs of high concern by principal component analysis according to multiple criteria, including occurrence, exposure potential, and ecological effect. Coupled with source-specificity and representativeness analysis, erythromycin, gemfibrozil, and albendazole showed a significant difference in their occurrence in leachate compared to other potential sources (untreated and treated municipal wastewater and livestock wastewater) and correlated with total PPCP concentrations; these were recommended as i-PPCPs for leachates. Indicator screening procedure can be used to develop a sophisticated source apportionment method to identify sources of PPCPs from adjacent landfills.
