A 2-D mathematical model to simulate the temperature distribution, coke formation, and change in residual extractable oil
during remediation by low-temperature oxidation (LTO) process was developed. Simulation results indicate that the spacing
between wells, pressure difference, and air-injection temperature and different well patterns influence the temperature distribution
and consequently the level of remediation in the soil. The model results for coke formation and residual extractable oil distribution
compared well with experimental results. The operating conditions—air-injection temperature of about 200°C, air-injection
pressure of 6 to 10 kPa, air-extraction pressure of −110 Pa, and wells spaced 1 m apart installed in a nine-spot pattern—provide
good remediation of hydrocarbons in soil by LTO process.

Economic assessment of damage caused by invasive alien species provides useful information to consider when determining whether
management programs should be established, modified, or discontinued. We estimate the baseline economic damage from an invasive
alien pathogen, Ceratocystis fagacearum, a fungus that causes oak wilt, which is a significant disease of oaks (Quercus spp.) in the central United States. We focus on Anoka County, Minnesota, a 1,156 km2 mostly urban county in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metropolitan region. We develop a landscape-level model of oak wilt spread
that accounts for underground and overland pathogen transmission. We predict the economic damage of tree mortality from oak
wilt spread in the absence of management during the period 2007–2016. Our metric of economic damage is removal cost, which
is one component of the total economic loss from tree mortality. We estimate that Anoka County has 5.92 million oak trees
and 885 active oak wilt pockets covering 5.47 km2 in 2007. The likelihood that landowners remove infected oaks varies by land use and ranges from 86% on developed land to
57% on forest land. Over the next decade, depending on the rates of oak wilt pocket establishment and expansion, 76–266 thousand
trees will be infected with discounted removal cost of $18–60 million. Although our predictions of removal costs are substantial,
they are lower bounds on the total economic loss from tree mortality because we do not estimate economic losses from reduced
services and increased hazards. Our predictions suggest that there are significant economic benefits, in terms of damage reduction,
from preventing new pocket establishment or slowing the radial growth of existing pockets. 相似文献

Oxidative stress in Scenedesmus sp. during short- and long-term exposure to Cu2+ and Zn2+ 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Algae are exposed to elevated levels of heavy metals in water bodies generally for a long-term, and occasionally for a short-term duration. The present study deals with oxidative stress in Scenedesmus sp., commonly found in nutrient-rich freshwaters, during short- (6h) and long-term (7d) exposure to Cu(2+) and Zn(2+). The cells accumulated almost 2- and 4-times more Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) inside the cells during long-term than during short-term exposure to these metals. But the data on photosynthetic O(2) evolution and cell viability suggest that Scenedesmus sp. experienced lesser metal stress in long-term than in short-term experiment. Although malondialdehyde content was slightly higher in the long-term experiment, the amount produced by one unit intracellular metal was significantly lower than that in the short-term experiment. Superoxide dismutase activity of Scenedesmus sp. was >30% higher during long-term than during short-term exposure to Cu(2+) and Zn(2+). But, catalase and ascorbate peroxidase activities increased only at 2.5 microM Cu(2+) and 25 microM Zn(2+) when oxidative stress was mild, but were inhibited at 10 microM Cu(2+) under intense oxidative stress. Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) reduced glutathione reductase activity and total SH content of Scenedesmus sp. in both the experiments, with greater reduction occurring in the long-term experiment. The depletion of total thiol was positively related with the intracellular level of metals. Thiols might have helped Scenedesmus sp. in overcoming metal-induced oxidative stress, but depletion of thiol pool is known to make cells vulnerable to oxidative stress. The study suggests that antioxidant enzymes play a role only under mild oxidative stress. An increased accumulation of proline seems to be an important strategy for alleviating metal-induced oxidative stress in Scenedesmus sp. The study shows that Scenedesmus sp. could acclimatize during long-term exposure to toxic concentrations of the test metals. 相似文献
