长江经济带城市扩张的时空特征与生态响应

量化识别城市扩张在不同发展阶段的时空特征，有助于从宏观上认知城市扩张态势，理解城市化的生态响应。以Landsat TM/OLI影像为数据源，分析了近30a（1986~2016年)长江经济带3个省级城市和4个地级市的城市扩张，包括建设用地的时空变化和扩张模式，以及扩张的生态效应。结果表明：(1)建设用地扩张量在过去30a呈线性递增过程，平均扩张速率在2006~2016年降低，表明建设用地由增量扩张向存量开发转型，但地级市的转型滞后于省级城市;(2)蔓延式扩张比例下降而填充式扩张和飞地式扩张不断增加，说明城市扩张模式由粗放蔓延型向紧凑集约型转换;(3)建设用地从快速扩张到稳定扩张的过程与植被覆盖从退化到管控的过程一致，印证了建设用地扩张与植被覆盖度的时空关联性。同时，建设用地扩张导致的生态系服务价值负值不断增加，较大幅度的降低了生态系统服务总价值。面临城市扩张进程中出现的植被覆盖退化和建设用地生态系统服务负值过大的问题，合理而有力的规划政策实施在未来城市发展中尤为重要。     

Adsorption of Ammonium by Graphene Oxide-Based Composites Prepared by UV Irradiation and Using as Slow-Release Fertilizer

A novel sodium alginate-grafted poly(acrylic acid)/graphene oxide (NaAlg-g-PAA/GO) composite hydrogel was prepared via ultraviolet irradiation, and characterized by infrared spectroscopy spectrometer. X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. It was employed to adsorb NH₄⁺ from aqueous solution and used as slow-release nitrogen fertilizers (SNFs). Result indicated that the adsorption process for NH₄⁺ reached equilibrium within 50 min, with the adsorption capacity of 6.6 mmol g^?1 even if 30 wt% GO was incorporated. The results of adsorption kinetic and isotherm were well described by the pseudo-second-order and Freundlich model. The thermodynamics analysis showed the adsorption process was spontaneous. The study indicated excellent water-holding ratio of soil with 2 wt% SNFs was 81.2%, and nitrogen release was up to 55.1% within 40 days in soil. Overall, NaAlg-g-PAA/GO could be considered as an efficient adsorbent for the recovery of nitrogen with the agronomic reuse as a fertilizer.

神农架大九湖湿地公园脊椎动物多样性概况

为了更好的了解和保护大九湖湿地环境和资源,在2016 ～ 2018年间对湿地动物多样性进行了12次野外调查,共记录到脊椎动物26目78科232种,其中鱼类2目2科12种,两栖类2目5科12种,爬行类1目6科14种,鸟类16目52科167种,兽类5目13科27种;其中东洋种有114种,古北种有69种,广布种有37种;以金雕(Aquila chrysaetos)、白尾海雕(Haliaeetus albicilla)和黑熊(Ursus thibetanus)等为代表的国家级、省级保护动物79种.基于Shannon-Wiener多样性指数和Pielou均匀性指数分析,多样性表现为鸟类＞兽类＞爬行类＞两栖类＞鱼类;均匀性表现为爬行类＞鸟类＞兽类＞两栖类＞鱼类.结果 表明大九湖湿地脊椎动物具有种类较多、多样性较高、国家级保护动物较多但种群密度低、优势种不明显、湿地鸟类较多、东洋界种占优势等特点,是湿地及林灌丛生态系统的重要生物类群.     

Use of historical and contemporary distribution of mammals in China to inform conservation

A systematic understanding of dynamic animal extinction trajectories for different regions in a nation like China is critically important to developing practical conservation strategies. We explored historical and contemporary changes in terrestrial mammalian diversity to determine how diversity in each of the 5 regions in China has changed over time and to examine the conservation potential of these regions. We used records from databases on Pleistocene mammalian fossils and historical distribution records (1175–2020) for Primates (as a case study) to reconstruct evolutionary and historical distribution trajectories of the 11 orders of terrestrial mammals and to predict their prospective survival based on the national conservation strategy applied. The results indicated that since the Pleistocene, 4–5 mammalian orders have been lost in the northeast, 3 in central China, 2 along the coast, and 1 in the northwest. In the southwest, all 11 orders were maintained. Contemporarily, the coast and southwest had the highest and second-highest species densities. The southwest region and southeastern sections of the northwest region were the most historically and contemporarily diverse areas, which suggests that they should be the first priority for protected area (PA) designation. The central and coastal areas should be secondarily prioritized. In these 2 regions, conservation should focus on human coexistence with nature. Less attention should be paid to the PA in the northeast and western northwest because in these areas ecosystems are depauperate and the climate is harsh. Conservation in these areas should focus principally on avoiding further human encroachment on natural areas. Article impact statement: Historical and contemporary patterns of extinction can be a basis for mammalian conservation strategies.     

近期长江张家洲南水道强冲刷机理与趋势分析

2016年9月利用多波束测深仪调查了张家洲河段河床微地貌的高分辨率形态与分布特征，结合1998年和2013年水下地形资料，分析了三峡截流以来该河段河槽的冲淤变化与演变趋势。结果表明：（1）张家洲河段整体呈冲刷状态，净冲刷量17.2×10.6 m³。其中，张家洲南水道是强冲刷区，最大冲刷深度约9 m；（2）河槽表层沉积物中值粒径为149.1~226.3 μm，与历史资料相比呈粗化趋势；（3）张家洲河段约82.9％的主航道发育了沙波，约14.0％的主航道发育了冲刷坑与冲刷槽，平床地形仅占3.1％。流域来沙量减少是张家洲河段整体冲刷的主要原因，而河流控制工程稳定了河势，迫使水流归槽，加剧了张家洲南水道的冲刷。随着流域来沙量持续减少，张家洲南水道主航道有可能进一步冲刷     

300MW燃煤锅炉机组超细颗粒聚并器的实验研究

为了解决燃煤锅炉烟气中超细颗粒难以脱除的问题,基于流体动力学原理设计了一种超细颗粒聚并器,并在300 MW燃煤锅炉机组电除尘器的前置烟道中进行了实验研究。结果表明,聚并器内部存在超细颗粒之间以及超细颗粒与大颗粒之间的相互聚集行为,从而使超细颗粒数量显著减少。例如,对于粒径在2.65和10.48μm以下的颗粒,其体积比例在聚并器出口分别减少了56.7%和62.3%,在电除尘器出口的粉尘浓度减少了26.34 mg/Nm3,这表明,基于流体动力学原理的聚并器对超细颗粒的聚并作用明显,具有良好的应用前景。
