Solar energy conversion into electricity by photovoltaic modules is now a mature technology. We discuss the need for materials and device developments using conventional silicon and other materials, pointing to the need to use scalable materials and to reduce the energy payback time. Storage of solar energy can be achieved using the energy of light to produce a fuel. We discuss how this can be achieved in a direct process mimicking the photosynthetic processes, using synthetic organic, inorganic, or hybrid materials for light collection and catalysis. We also briefly discuss challenges and needs for large-scale implementation of direct solar fuel technologies. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi(AMF) are important components of soil microbial communities,and play important role in plant growth. However, the effects of AMF phylogenetic groups(Glomeraceae and non-Glomeraceae) on host plant under various heavy metal levels are not clear. Here we conducted a meta-analysis to compare symbiotic relationship between AMF phylogenetic groups(Glomeraceae and non-Glomeraceae) and host plant functional groups(herbs vs. trees, and non-legumes vs. legumes) at three heavy metal levels. In the meta-analysis, we calculate the effect size(ln(RR)) by taking the natural logarithm of the response ratio of inoculated to non-inoculated shoot biomass from each study. We found that the effect size of Glomeraceae increased, but the effect size of non-Glomeraceae decreased under high level of heavy metal compared to low level. According to the effect size, both Glomeraceae and non-Glomeraceae promoted host plant growth, but had different effects under various heavy metal levels. Glomeraceae provided more benefit to host plants than non-Glomeraceae did under heavy metal condition, while non-Glomeraceae provided more benefit to host plants than Glomeraceae did under no heavy metal. AMF phylogenetic groups also differed in promoting plant functional groups under various heavy metal levels.Interacting with Glomeraceae, herbs and legumes grew better than trees and non-legumes did under high heavy metal level, while trees and legumes grew better than herbs and non-legumes did under medium heavy metal level. Interacting with non-Glomeraceae, herbs and legumes grew better than trees and non-legumes did under no heavy metal. We suggested that the combination of legume with Glomeraceae could be a useful way in the remediation of heavy metal polluted environment. 相似文献

Within the literature on common-pool resource management, one of the primary methodologies used is the meta-analysis of case studies, due to the difficulties of otherwise producing large-n datasets that span multiple systems. In this paper we respond to a critique of a previous meta-analysis that we have conducted, in which we evaluated Elinor Ostrom’s institutional design principles. Within our response we correct what we perceive to be factual errors contained in this critique, but more importantly we try to use this opportunity to re-evaluate our own work and expand this evaluation to the seminal work of Elinor Ostrom and the research program on common-pool resource management. We find that the original critique highlighted several important points, primarily the challenge of unpacking complex variable relationships and the conflation of diverse outcomes, and we discuss how these are challenges for the larger commons field. We conclude with some comments on how to move forward to confront these challenges. 相似文献

A long-standing hypothesis in behavioural ecology posits that males with greater resource-holding potential (RHP) control
resource sites deemed more valuable by sexually-receptive females and, thereby, males controlling such sites accrue greater
reproductive success (RS). This hypothesis has historically been investigated using three separate but non-mutually exclusive
relationships (male RHP vs. resource value, resource value vs. male RS and male RHP vs. RS). The relationships between these
three variables are predicted to be strongly positive, however, due to measurement error and biological noise, perfect correlations
(r = 1.0) are rare in biology even for well-established relationships. Moreover, the inaccurate identification of either the
male trait(s) important to RHP or the resource characteristic sought by females will weaken the observed strength of the relationships.
Here, I use meta-analysis to quantitatively describe the general pattern of these relationships in animals. I predict that
the relationships between male RHP, resource-value and RS should be significantly positive (male RHP and resource-value should
explain a large amount of the variation in male RS). My meta-analysis supports this hypothesis; however, in the best case
scenario only ca. 20% of the variation in the response variable was explained. I conclude by identifying areas in which we
need to improve our investigations of resource-defence animals and recommending approaches to meet these needs.

A meta-analysis of heavy metals pollution in farmland and urban soils in China over the past 20 years 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A total of 713 research papers about field monitor experiments of heavy metals in farmland and urban soils in China, published from 2000 to 2019, were obtained. A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the level of China's heavy metal pollution in soils, mainly focusing on eight heavy metals. It was found that the average concentrations of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), and arsenic (As) in China were 0.19, 30.74, 85.86, 25.81, 0.074, 67.37, 27.77 and 8.89 mg/kg, respectively. Compared with the background value (0.097 mg/kg), the Cd content showed a twofold (0.19 mg/kg) rise in farmland soils and a threefold (0.29 mg/kg) rise in urban soils. The decreasing order of the mean Igeo was Cd (1.77) > Pb (0.62) > Zn (0.60) > Cu (0.58) > Hg (0.57) > Cr (0.54) > Ni (0.47) > As (0.28). Nearly 33.54% and 44.65% of sites in farmland and urban soils were polluted with Cd. The average concentrations of eight heavy metals were not sensitive change in recent two decades in farmland and urban soils. The average Pn values for urban (2.52) and farmland (2.15) soils showed that heavy metal pollution in urban soils was more serious than that in farmland, and the middle Yangtze River regions, where industrial activity dominates, were the most polluted. The meta-analysis comprehensively evaluated the current pollution situation of soil heavy metal, and provided important basis for soil management and environment prevention in China. 相似文献

Rhododendron ponticum is an invasive species in many countries, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Belgium, and France. It poses a serious
threat to native flora and fauna, as it is capable of altering entire seminatural communities through its vigorous spread.
Control is essential if the conservation value of some communities, such as oak woodland and lowland heath, are to be successfully
maintained. Commonly used interventions are herbicide application, herbicide application postcut, and cutting (manual or mechanical)
alone. Various techniques have been developed to apply these interventions, but often retreatment of the area is required,
increasing the cost of control. Here, we evaluate the effectiveness of some commonly used interventions for R. ponticum control using a systematic review methodology. Eleven studies provided data for statistical analysis. Meta-analyses of captured data show that postcut application of the
herbicide Glyphosate or applying the herbicides Metsulfuron-methyl or Imazapyr (no cut) can effectively reduce a R. ponticum stand. There is insufficient available experimental evidence for effectiveness of any other intervention. The systematic review
process has demonstrated the lack of replicated studies with controls or long-term monitoring and increases the call for more
rigorous monitoring of all conservation management interventions. The quality of experimental evidence of the effectiveness
of some interventions contrasts with the acceptance of their use through dissemination of experience. The collection and objective
review of experience will require active collaboration of organizations concerned with R. ponticum control. 相似文献

With rapid economic development and urbanization in recent decades, China has experienced the worsening of ambient air quality. For better air quality management to protect human health, Chinese government revised national ambient air quality standards(NAAQS) for particulate matter(PM) in 2012(GB3095-2012). To assess the effectiveness of current NAAQS for PM on public health in Chinese population, we conducted a metaanalysis on published studies examining the mortality risk of short-term exposure to PM with aerodynamic diameters less than 10 and 2.5 μm(PM_(10) and PM_(2.5)) in China. The reported24-hour concentrations of PM_(10) and PM_(2.5) in studies ranged from 43.5 to 150.1 μg/m~3 and 37.5 to 176.7 μg/m~3. In the pooled excess, mortality risk estimates of short-term exposure to PM.In specific, per 10 μg/m~3 increase in PM_(10), we observed increases of 0.40%(95%CI: 0.33%,0.47%), 0.57%(95%CI: 0.44%, 0.70%) and 0.49%(95%CI: 0.40%, 0.58%) in total, respiratory and cardiovascular mortality, per 10 μg/m~3 increase in PM_(2.5), we observed increases of 0.51%(95%CI: 0.38%, 0.63%), 0.62%(95%CI: 0.52%, 0.73%) and 0.75%(95%CI: 0.54%, 0.95%) in total,respiratory and cardiovascular mortality. Finally, we derived 125 μg/m~3 for PM_(10) and 62.5 μg/m~3 for PM_(2.5) as 24-hour recommendation values based on the pooled estimates. Our results indicated that current Chinese NAAQS for PM could be sufficient in mitigating the excess mortality risk from short-term exposure to ambient PM. However, future research on longterm exposure cohort studies in Chinese population is also essential in revising annual averages for PM in Chinese NAAQS. 相似文献

中国西南地区金属矿开采对矿区土壤重金属影响的Meta分析 总被引:8,自引:3,他引:5
金属矿开采是土壤重金属的最主要来源之一.以往针对单个或少数几个金属矿区的研究尚不足以有效支撑大尺度特别是跨省域尺度内矿区土壤重金属污染的治理.本研究针对我国金属矿产资源丰富的西南地区(云南省、四川省、贵州省、重庆市和西藏自治区),搜集了有关金属矿开采对土壤重金属影响的文献,采用Meta分析量化了不同情景模式(即不同子区域、矿种和土地利用类型)下金属矿开采对周边土壤As、Cd、Cr、Cu、Hg、Ni、Pb和Zn的影响,最后利用失安全系数与漏斗图检验了研究数据的发表性偏倚.结果表明,我国西南地区金属矿开采整体上显著增加了表层土壤中重金属含量[ES+(weight effect size)=1.53],重金属增加量由高到低顺序为:Cd (4109.80%)>Pb (741.49%)>Hg (452.90%)>Zn (420.70%)>As (278.10%)>Cu (138.69%)>Ni (16.18%),Cr无显著影响;四川和云南采矿对土壤Cd (ES+四川=4.16;ES+云南=3.20)和Pb (ES+四川=3.47;ES+云南=2.54)的影响较高,贵州采矿对土壤Hg (ES+=2.80)的影响最高;金属矿开采对耕地土壤(ES+=1.42)的影响较高;铅锌矿和锡矿开采显著增加了土壤中Cd、Pb和Zn的含量,铜矿开采显著增加了土壤Cu、Cd和Pb的含量;以上重金属中,Pb和Zn的研究结果受发表性偏倚的影响(P<0.05).本研究结果可为西南金属矿区土壤环境保护提供更多的有效信息. 相似文献

为明确水蚀环境不同条件下植被恢复策略对土壤固碳和团聚体稳定性的影响差异,通过搜集91篇论文的实验数据,以农田(或裸地)为对照,基于Meta分析评估土壤有机碳(SOC)储量和团聚体稳定性对水蚀环境退耕还林/还草措施的响应.结果表明:(1)退耕还林/还草均有利于提高SOC储量,改善土壤团聚体稳定性,但两者的优势功能存在差异,还林的固碳效应强于还草,而还草对增强团聚体稳定性的作用更强.(2)多因素Meta分析表明显著影响SOC的因素有:恢复年份、土壤黏粒含量、植被覆盖度、年平均降雨(MAP)、年平均气温(MAT)和土壤深度.其中植被恢复对SOC储量的正向效应随着植被覆盖率增加而提高;草地恢复在土壤黏粒含量为20%~32%下对SOC储量的提高效应更显著,在MAP>800 mm或MAT<15℃条件下更易促进草地固碳效应,不同恢复年限下的草地固碳效应无显著变化;而林地恢复在土壤黏粒含量>32%下对SOC储量的提高效应更显著,气候条件对林地SOC储量无限制性影响,林地恢复下的SOC储量与恢复年限间存在正向效应.(3)植被恢复在黏粒含量为20%~32%时对平均重量直径(MWD)和平均... 相似文献
