Groundwater quality of north-east Libya

The quality of groundwater was assessed to their suitability for drinking at six places of north-east Libya viz. El-Marj, Albayda, Shahat, Susa, Ras al-Hilal and Derna, during November, 2003 to March, 2004, by determining their physicochemical parameters (17 parameters) and water quality index (15 parameters). The temperatures of water samples averaged 15.1 degree C, pH values were alkaline and dissolved oxygen values were in safe ranges. Electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids and hardness of water at all places except Susa were within the standard limits. Alkalinity of well water at all six places exceeded, and chlorine and chloride (except Susa) were within the desirable limits set for them. Fluoride and nitrate contaminations of well water were not observed, and only very low values of phosphorus, manganese, chromium, iron and zinc were recorded. Copper in well water was generally high, and at Susa and Ras al-Hilal, it exceeded the desirable limit. Parametric ratios showed that all parameters studied except those of pH, dissolved oxygen, alkalinity and total chlorine originated from sources different from that of hardness. Water quality index (WQI) revealed that well water of Albayda and Shahat were good for drinking and were only slightly polluted, whereas those of El-Marj, Ras al-Hilal and Derna were moderately polluted. However, the well water of Susa was excessively polluted and was unsuitable for drinking. Suitable suggestions were made to improve the quality of groundwater of N.E. Libya.

多环麝香对蚯蚓的急性和亚急性毒性效应

为探讨多环麝香对土壤动物的毒性效应,以赤子爱胜蚓(Eisenia fetida)为供试生物,采用滤纸接触法与自然土壤法,考察了吐纳麝香(AHTN)和佳乐麝香(HHCB)对蚯蚓的急性和亚急性毒性效应。结果显示,滤纸法测得的AHTN和HHCB对蚯蚓的急性经皮毒性为中等毒性,对蚯蚓的48h-LC_(50)分别为20.76和11.87μg·cm~(-2),而自然土壤法测得的AHTN和HHCB对蚯蚓的14d-LC_(50)分别为436.3和392.4μg·g~(-1),2种多环麝香皆属低毒物质。HHCB对蚯蚓的急性毒性大于AHTN,但2种毒性测定方法中不同的染毒介质和毒性作用途径使AHTN和HHCB的急性毒性等级的界定有所差异。AHTN和HHCB对蚯蚓繁殖率的抑制作用较对生长速率更为明显,2种多环麝香对蚯蚓繁殖率的无可见效应浓度(NOEC)均为30μg·g~(-1),最低可见效应浓度(LOEC)均为50μg·g~(-1)。研究表明,蚯蚓繁殖率可作为一种潜在的生物标志物,用于监测或表征土壤中多环麝香的污染水平及其亚急性毒性效应。     

磷酸三正丁酯对蚯蚓的生态毒性效应

有机磷酸酯(OPEs)作为一种新型的阻燃剂和增塑剂,在环境中普遍存在,尤其在土壤中常被检出,因此其环境和健康风险亟待评估.为探究OPEs对土壤生物的毒性效应,选取磷酸三正丁酯(TnBP)作为受试物,以赤子爱胜蚓( Eisenia fetida)为指示生物,采用人工土壤法研究不同浓度TnBP对蚯蚓生长、抗氧化酶系统、乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)活性、体腔细胞DNA损伤及8-羟基脱氧鸟苷(8-OHdG)含量的影响.结果表明,TnBP暴露对蚯蚓生长无明显抑制作用,但TnBP胁迫可引起蚯蚓体内抗氧化酶活性增强,脂质过氧化产物丙二醛含量显著上升,表明蚯蚓受到氧化损伤;彗星试验结果显示,彗尾DNA含量和Olive尾矩均显著上升,表明TnBP暴露能够引起蚯蚓体腔细胞DNA损伤;8-OHdG含量也显著增加,其水平与暴露浓度存在明显的剂量-效应关系,提示TnBP暴露可引起蚯蚓体腔细胞氧化性DNA损伤;AChE活性受到的影响则较为微弱.综上,本研究阐明了TnBP暴露对蚯蚓的毒性效应并为进一步研究OPEs对土壤的生态风险评估提供科学依据.     

镉胁迫下蚯蚓金属硫蛋白氧化修饰的研究(Oxidative Modification of Metallothionein in Earthworm under Cd Stress)

金属硫蛋白(MT)是生物体内的一类富含巯基(—SH)的蛋白,在细胞氧化还原调控和重金属解毒等方面具有重要作用.MT的—SH可以络合重金属,同时对氧化作用很敏感,重金属胁迫产生的活性氧物质(ROS)可以将其氧化成二硫键(S—S).为揭示镉(Cd)对蚯蚓MT的—SH含量及其氧化修饰的影响,将蚯蚓放入Cd浓度为0、100、300mg·kg-1的黄棕壤中胁迫21天,通过SBD-F标记和高效液相色谱(HPLC)结合的方法测定MT中—SH和S—S的含量.结果显示,随着Cd浓度的增加,蚯蚓体内的—SH和S—S含量均逐渐增加,但S—S所占比例降低.这说明Cd诱导了蚯蚓体内MT合成,并且诱导量随着Cd胁迫的增强而增加,但—SH的氧化修饰程度有所下降.     

Susceptibility of a Northern Hardwood Forest to Exotic Earthworm Invasion

Abstract:  Numerous exotic earthworm species are colonizing northern hardwood forests of North America, where no native earthworms exist. Upon invasion, earthworms have been shown to alter the surface soil environment and plant populations and communities. We sought to identify land-use factors in the Ottawa National Forest (ONF), Michigan (U.S.A.), that contribute to earthworm invasion in forest dominated by sugar maple ( Acer saccharum Marsh.) so that the susceptibility to additional colonization could be evaluated. We sampled earthworm communities in Sylvania Wilderness Area, a unique old-growth hardwood forest, and nonwilderness sites influenced by recreational fishing, recent timber harvesting, or roads. All the nonwilderness sites contained one to five species of exotic earthworms. In contrast, only 50% of wilderness sites contained exotic earthworms, all of a single species. Nonwilderness sites also had thinner litter and duff layers, higher soil C and N content, and higher nitrogen mineralization potentials than Sylvania sites. Two central differences between Sylvania and nonwilderness sites were that all nonwilderness sites were in close contact with roads and had a history of timber harvest, whereas these factors were not present in Sylvania Wilderness Area. Using average rates of colonization, we constructed two geographic information system models to estimate the percentage of sugar maple on the ONF falling within a theoretical 100-year invasion distance of roads and of second-growth sugar maple as relative indices of susceptibility to invasion. Both models indicated high susceptibility to invasion, with 91.7% and 98.9% of sugar maple habitat falling within a theoretical 100-year invasion distance of roads or historical harvests, respectively.     

蚯蚓在处理活性污泥过程中的生长繁殖

利用蚯蚓处理污泥、畜禽粪便、植物残体、工业废弃物等已经成为当前有机废弃物资源化利用的有效实例,而处理过程中蚯蚓的生长繁殖变化对有效利用蚯蚓具有重要意义.研究了污水厂活性污泥及污泥与牛粪不同比例条件对蚯蚓平均增重、生长率、日增重倍数、产茧量和蚓茧孵化率等生长繁殖指标的影响.污泥和牛粪分别以1:1、2:1、3:1、4:1、5:1和1:0的比例混合喂养赤子爱胜蚓(Eisenia foetida),每个配比4个重复,共计24个样品(盆).每盆基质干物质量为500 g.实验期为60 d.结果表明:在污泥所占比例较大的处理中蚯蚓生长较好,增重较多;污泥所占比例较小的处理则较利于蚯蚓繁殖;其中4:1配比条件下蚯蚓的体重[(17.55±0.30)g]是处理中的最大值,而且平均增重[(354.70±35.30)mg/条]最多,生长率也较高,因此最适合蚯蚓生长.Duncan多重比较结果表明1:1与其他配比条件下蚯蚓总产茧量之间存在显著差异,蚯蚓周产茧量、总产茧量[(538.5±28.3)个]最多,蚓茧孵化率(89.2%)较高,最适合蚯蚓繁殖.

Beijing's coordinated development of population,resources, environment,and economy

Since the Olympic Games will be held in Beijing at 2008, the urban development plan of Beijing deserves special attention. The essence of regional sustainable development is that population (P), resources (R), environment (E) and economy (E) could develop with sustenance, order and coordination during a certain period, which forms a complex system called the PREE complex system. For this system, a multi-objective integrated model is formulated and solved by a nonlinear goal programming technique. Beijing's PREE complex system is then used as an empirical study. Twelve interesting goals are carefully selected, the parameters of each goal function were estimated by using Beijing's 50-year (1949–1999) statistical data, and their ideal goal limits for 2000 and 2005 are chosen according to the 9th and 10th Five-Year Economic Development Plans of Beijing. The results showed that population size is the most sensitive element in Beijing's PREE complex system. Furthermore, some suggestions related to public policies about the urban development of Beijing are proposed.     

三唑磷和氯氟氰菊酯对蚯蚓的联合毒性效应

近年来农药复配使用成为普遍现象,它对生态的危害是否有别于农药单独使用?采用OECD人工土壤法,通过急性毒性、回避行为及抗氧化酶(CAT、POD、SOD)活性3个生态响应水平,研究三唑磷和氯氟氰菊酯对蚯蚓的联合毒性效应。结果表明:三唑磷对蚯蚓7 d和14 d的半数致死浓度(LC50)分别为331.1 mg·kg~(-1)和122.0 mg·kg~(-1);氯氟氰菊酯对蚯蚓7 d LC50和14 d LC50分别为897.9 mg·kg~(-1)和656.7 mg·kg~(-1)。2种农药按毒性比1:1复配,表现为协同作用。三唑磷和氯氟氰菊酯对蚯蚓48 h的半数回避浓度(AC50)分别是41.6 mg·kg~(-1)和6.0 mg·kg~(-1),两者亦表现为协同作用。经2种农药单独处理,蚯蚓体内CAT活性呈现轻微上升后下降,而POD和SOD活性无明显变化;复配导致POD活力显著上升,而CAT和SOD活力则显著下降。研究表明:三唑磷和氯氟氰菊酯复配呈现协同作用,增强彼此对蚯蚓的毒性作用,增大土壤生态危害风险;联合效应的产生与其阻断神经传导这一共同靶标有关。

Characterization of the benthic vegetation in the Farwà Lagoon (Libya)

This study forms part of the Action Plan for the Conservation of Marine Vegetation in the Mediterranean SEa (United Nation Environmental Program). It was carried out in June 2000 in the Farwà Lagoon, Libya. The mapping of the main benthic vegetation was achieved by compiling the field observations (transect method), and remote sensing of SPOT satellite images. The phytobenthos in the Farwà lagoon covers an area of 1820 ha (65%). Three benthic macrophyte species dominate, namely the marine phanerogamsCymodocea nodosa andPosidonia oceanica, and the algaCaulerpa prolifera. DeadPosidonia oceanica leaves (litter) form veritable mounds in the vicinity of the openings leading to open sea. These leaves, which come from the coastal sea, are brought into the lagoon by currents and tides; their decomposition will lead to high oxygen consumption and the release of hydrogen sulphide. The phenological data ofPosidonia oceanica shoots sampled in the lagoon are similar to those from other stations in the Mediterranean. Conversely, the lepidochronological parameters of shoots sampled in the central part of the lagoon exhibit values that are substantially higher than those generally recorded in the Mediterranean. The mean number of leaves produced annually is 9.9 (mean value for the Mediterranean: 7.5) and the rhizome growth rate is of 35.7 mm.yr⁻¹ (mean value for the Mediterranean: 7.5 mm.yr⁻¹). This hypersaline environment would seem to provide optimum growth conditions for the speciesPosidonia oceanica.

Risk-aversion,relative abundance of resources and foraging preference

Summary Foraging theory depicts dietary choice as a function of prey quality and absolute abundance. Ecological processes, however, can depend on the way foragers respond to the relative abundances of available prey types; several models for frequency-dependent foraging adequately describe these responses. Our laboratory experiments with white-throated sparrows investigated preferential choice of two food rewards as we manipulated both reward quality and relative abundance. In any single experiment the two rewards provided the same mean food quantity, but the variances differed. Average energy budgets predicted risk-aversion, so that foraging preference should decrease as reward variance increases. We presented each two-reward pairing at availability ratios of 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1 for three consecutive days. By the third day risk-aversion exceeded preference for reward variance significantly. When relative abundances of the low and high variance rewards were not equal, the birds tended to prefer the rare over the common reward. This response began before the birds had thoroughly sampled the reward distributions. Preference for rarity apparently constrained the birds' economic response to reward variance levels.     

Effects of Earthworm Invasion on Plant Species Richness in Northern Hardwood Forests

Abstract:  The invasion of non-native earthworms ( Lumbricus spp.) into a small number of intensively studied stands of northern hardwood forest has been linked to declines in plant diversity and the local extirpation of one threatened species. It is unknown, however, whether these changes have occurred across larger regions of hardwood forests, which plant species are most vulnerable, or with which earthworm species such changes are associated most closely. To address these issues we conducted a regional survey in the Chippewa and Chequamegon national forests in Minnesota and Wisconsin (U.S.A.), respectively. We sampled earthworms, soils, and vegetation, examined deer browse in 20 mature, sugar-maple-dominated forest stands in each national forest, and analyzed the relationship between invasive earthworms and vascular plant species richness and composition. Invasion by Lumbricus was a strong indicator of reduced plant richness in both national forests. The mass of Lumbricus juveniles was significantly and negatively related to plant-species richness in both forests. In addition, Lumbricus was a significant factor affecting plant richness in a full model that included multiple variables. In the Chequamegon National Forest earthworm mass was associated with higher sedge cover and lower cover of sugar maple seedlings and several forb species. The trends were similar but not as pronounced in Chippewa, perhaps due to lower deer densities and different earthworm species composition. Our results provide regional evidence that invasion by Lumbricus species may be an important mechanism in reduced plant-species richness and changes in plant communities in mature forests dominated by sugar maples.
