Immediate behavioural responses to earthquakes in Christchurch,New Zealand,and Hitachi,Japan

This study examines people's immediate responses to earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand, and Hitachi, Japan. Data collected from 257 respondents in Christchurch and 332 respondents in Hitachi revealed notable similarities between the two cities in people's emotional reactions, risk perceptions, and immediate protective actions during the events. Respondents' physical, household, and social contexts were quite similar, but Hitachi residents reported somewhat higher levels of emotional reaction and risk perception than did Christchurch residents. Contrary to the recommendations of emergency officials, the most frequent response of residents in both cities was to freeze. Christchurch residents were more likely than Hitachi residents to drop to the ground and take cover, whereas Hitachi residents were more likely than Christchurch residents to evacuate immediately the building in which they were situated. There were relatively small correlations between immediate behavioural responses and demographic characteristics, earthquake experience, and physical, social, or household context.     

Efficacy of Vegetated Buffers in Preventing Transport of Fecal Coliform Bacteria from Pasturelands

An experimental study was conducted in Tillamook, Oregon, USA, to quantify the effectiveness of edge-of-field vegetated buffers for reducing transport of fecal coliform bacteria (FCB) from agricultural fields amended with dairy cow manure. Installation of vegetated buffers on loamy soils dramatically reduced the bacterial contamination of runoff water from manure-treated pasturelands, but the size of the vegetated buffer was not an important determinant of bacterial removal efficiency. Only 10% of the runoff samples collected from treatment cells having vegetated buffers exhibited FCB concentrations >200 colony forming units (cfu)/100 mL (a common water quality standard value), and the median concentration for all cells containing vegetated buffers was only 6 cfu/100 mL. The presence of a vegetated buffer of any size, from 1 to 25 m, generally reduced the median FCB concentration in runoff by more than 99%. Results for FCB load calculations were similar. Our results suggest that where substantial FCB contamination of runoff occurs from manure-treated pasturelands, it might be disproportionately associated with specific field or management conditions, such as the presence of soils that exhibit low water infiltration and generate larger volumes of runoff or the absence of a vegetated buffer. Buffer size regulations that do not consider such differences might not be efficient or effective in reducing bacterial contamination of runoff.     

城市内部尺度PM2.5传输关联方法研究—以北京市为例

基于数据驱动思想,以城市内部环境空气质量监测站点为研究对象,建立了目标站点与周边站点间PM_2.5浓度、风向、风速、欧几里得距离等参数的多元线性关联回归模型,使用梯度下降算法学习得到各参数权重系数,计算得出周边站点对目标站点PM_2.5传输贡献,并评估了模型的可行性.以北京市丰台花园（FT）为目标站点的应用研究结果显示,2016年FT站点PM_2.5浓度为82μg/m³,周边站点大兴（DX）、房山（FS）、亦庄（YZ）、东四环（DS）、古城（GC）和万柳（WL）浓度分别为93,82,80,79,77,71μg/m³;FT站点PM_2.5浓度与上一时刻周边站点WL、GC、DX、YZ的相关性分别为0.634、0.631、0.608和0.601,显示其对FT站点PM_2.5污染传输显著;建立的4个季节关联回归模型RMSE值分别为13.22、11.74、12.51和13.22,PM_2.5模拟浓度与监测浓度变化趋势一致,验证了模型的可行性;WL、DX、YZ、GC分别是对应春、夏、秋、冬4个季节对FT站点PM_2.5污染传输贡献较大的站点,其贡献值分别为1.61%、1.71%、2.20%和8.57%.该模型解析的结果可为北京市未来城市规划、建设提供依据,提出的PM_2.5传输多元线性关联回归方法同样可用来解析其他城市内部尺度PM_2.5传输关联,为挖掘城市内部PM_2.5传输路径、精准溯源提供基础.     

Effects of artificially induced complete mixing on dissolved organic matter in a stratified source water reservoir

Naturally complete mixing promotes the spontaneous redistribution of dissolved oxygen(DO), representing an ideal state for maintaining good water quality, and conducive to the biomineralization of organic matter. Water lifting aerators(WLAs) can extend the periods of complete mixing and increase the initial mixing temperature. To evaluate the influence of artificial-induced continuously mixing on dissolved organic matter(DOM) removal performance, the variations of DOM concentrations, optical cha...     

Source identification, contamination status and health risk assessment of heavy metals from road dusts in Dhaka, Bangladesh

In this study, concentrations of Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb were determined in road dusts collected from different locations in Dhaka to assess source, contamination status and health risk. Energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used to determine Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb and their mean concentrations were 162.27 ± 29.46, 721.18 ± 180.14, 35.65 ± 12.55, 104.56 ± 128.33, 515.32 ± 321.90, BDL, and 342.82 ± 591.20 mg/kg, respectively. Among the heavy metals, highest concentrations of Cu, Zn and Pb were found at urban sites-7 (municipal waste dumping) and 8 (medical waste incineration). Highest concentration of Cr followed by Cu and Zn was found at site-5 (Tejgaon, urban). Principal component analysis revealed that anthropogenic activities are the potential sources for Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb while earth crust for Mn. Pollution index and pollution load index results suggested that all the sites were contaminated and/or degraded by Cr, Cu, Zn and Pb except sites-9 (urban), 10 (sub-urban), 11 (rural) while sites-7 and 8 (urban) were extremely degraded. For noncarcinogenic health risk, hazard quotient values for dermal were higher compared to that of inhalation/ingestion. Though hazard index values were less than 1 at all the sites, these were at least one order of magnitude higher for children group than that of adult group, thus the children group may face more noncarcinogenic health risk at sites-7 and 8. Values of incremental lifetime cancer risk were from 10⁻⁹ to 10⁻¹¹ showed no carcinogenic health risk by road dusts contaminated with the heavy metals.     

Year-round observation of atmospheric inorganic aerosols in urban Beijing: Size distribution, source analysis, and reduction mechanism

To investigate particle characteristics and find an effective measure to control severe particle pollution, year-round observation of size-segregated inorganic aerosols was conducted in Beijing from January to December, 2016. The sampled atmospheric particles all presented bimodal size distribution at four pollution levels (clear, slight pollution, moderate pollution and severe pollution), and peak values appeared at the size range of 0.7-2.1 μm and >9.0 μm, respectively. As dominant particle compositions, NO₃⁻, SO₄²⁻, and NH₄⁺ in four pollution levels all showed significant peaks in fine mode, especially at the size range of 1.1-2.1 μm. Secondary inorganic aerosols accounted for about 67.6% (36.3% (secondary sulfates) + 31.3% (secondary nitrates)) of the total sources of fine particles in urban Beijing. Severe pollution of fine particles was mainly caused by the air masses transported from nearby western and southern areas, which are industrial and densely populated region, respectively. Sensitivity tests further revealed that the control measures focusing on ammonium emission reduction was the most effective for particle pollution mitigation, and fine particles all showed nonlinear responses after reducing ammonium, nitrate, and sulfate concentrations, with the fitting curves of y = -120.8x - 306.1x² + 290.2x³, y = -43.5x - 67.8x², and y = -25.8x - 110.4x² + 7.6x³, respectively (y and x present fine particle mass variation (μg/m³) and concentration reduction ratio (CRR)/100 (dimensionless)). Overall, our study presents useful information for understanding the characteristics of atmospheric inorganic aerosols in urban Beijing, as well as offers policy makers with effective measure for mitigating particle pollution.     

保定市PM2.5和臭氧污染特征分析

为深入了解保定市空气质量状况,揭示PM_2.5与臭氧(O₃)的变化特征及相互关系,利用小波分析法对保定市2013—2020年每年4—9月AQI、PM_2.5、O₃-8 h (O₃日最大8 h滑动平均值)和NO₂浓度的逐日数据进行分析. 结果表明:①2013—2018年保定市O₃污染呈逐年加重趋势,最大日浓度达到347 μg/m3;随着治理措施的颁布与实施,PM_2.5超标天数由2013年的97 d减至2020年的1 d,PM_2.5超标情况逐年改善. ②O₃超标天数由2013年的3 d增至2018年的95 d,2020年减至61 d;O₃超标天数占PM_2.5和O₃超标总天数的比例从2013年的3%增至2020年的98%,说明O₃逐渐成为影响保定市空气质量的主要污染物. ③2013年保定市O₃-8 h浓度低于“2+26”城市均值,2014—2020年O₃-8 h浓度高于或接近“2+26”城市均值,说明近年来保定市O₃-8 h浓度的升幅已超过“2+26”城市的平均水平. ④小波分析发现,2013—2020年(除2015年和2018年外)AQI与PM_2.5污染序列的第1主周期相近,从2017年开始,AQI与O₃-8 h污染序列的第1主周期和第2主周期均一致,说明近年来保定市空气污染逐渐由PM_2.5污染转为PM_2.5与O₃复合污染. ⑤在同一时间尺度范围内,PM_2.5与O₃-8 h污染序列的震荡频率基本一致,说明二者存在较明显的正相关关系;2015—2019年,NO₂与O₃-8 h污染序列的震荡频率趋于一致,说明保定市O₃-8 h浓度受前体物NO₂影响较大,2020年震荡频率有较大差异,这可能与新冠肺炎疫情复工后生产规模尚未完全恢复,致使NO₂、PM_2.5等污染物排放强度同比降低有关. 因此,减少NO₂排放,协同控制多污染物是实现保定市空气质量改善的主要途径.
