生态足迹改进模型在可持续发展评价中的应用研究

生态足迹分析通过计算生物物理量来衡量人类经济活动对自然生态系统服务的需求与自然生态系统承载力之间的协调程度,因为该方法思路新颖、计算简便而被广泛应用于国家和地区的可持续发展评价中。文章针对Rees W E等提出的生态足迹模型中存在的问题与不足(如:产量因子和当量因子参数选取偏差,生态功能差异表现不充分,模型不具动态性等)提出了改进生态足迹模型。利用改进后的生态足迹模型计算天津市1995—2005年的生态足迹及其动态变化值,天津市耕地、牧草地、林地、水域和化石能源用地人均生态足迹盈亏分别为0.0009,-0.3224,-0.1991,0.0255,-1.9600hm2·人-1,除耕地和水域略有盈余外,牧草地、林地和化石能源用地人均生态赤字均呈递增趋势。1995—2005年间天津市单位产值能耗居高不下、人口规模增长与建筑用地扩张是导致人均生态赤字扩大的根本原因。文章提出的生态足迹改进模型可以动态指示区域或城市经济发展水平与自然生态系统承载力之间的协调程度,为区域可持续发展战略制定和实施提供决策依据。     

基于净初级生产力的生态足迹模型及其与传统模型的对比分析

生态足迹模型因其可以定量度量生态可持续发展、计算简单、结论易懂、全球可比等特点,提出之后得到了大量的关注和应用,同时也面临着一些质疑和争论。文章介绍了一种基于净初级生产力的生态足迹理论和计算方法,并以该方法和传统生态足迹模型分别计算了中国1961-2007年的生态足迹,对计算结果进行了对比分析。结果表明,两种生态足迹模型的计算结果具有较高的相关性,表明基于净初级生产力的生态足迹模型结果可信。该种方法能够克服传统生态足迹模型的部分缺陷,在均衡因子选取、土地生态功能假设、CO2吸收等方面有了较大改进,能够较好地反映不同生态系统在生产力上的差异;在时间序列分析方面也更加合理。但该方法本身同时存在着计算方法不完善、对生态系统变化不敏感等问题,如何更紧密地结合生态足迹和净初级生产力是需要进一步研究的内容。

中部6省生态足迹的测算与比较分析

生态足迹方法是区域可持续发展研究的一种重要方法,在中部6省大区域框架下,运用生态足迹模型对中部6省1989—2011年的生态足迹进行了测算和对比研究。研究结果表明:中部6省1989—2011年的生态承载力较为平稳,其中江西、河南、湖北和湖南4省的生态承载力略有上升,而山西、安徽两省的生态承载力有下降趋势。中部6省的社会经济活动对生态系统的消耗远大于生态系统本身的承载能力,并且这种差距正在不断增大,导致生态赤字不断增大。考察期间,山西省生态赤字的绝对值最小,平均生态赤字为0.49 hm2 cap-1,湖北省生态赤字最大,平均值为1.15 hm2 cap-1,其次为河南和湖南,生态赤字增长最快的是山西省和河南省,增长倍数分别达到了7.38和4.27倍。中部6省6种生态生产性土地的生态足迹均呈现出上升趋势,平均来看,6类生态生产性土地在中部6省总的生态足迹中所占比重由高到低依次为耕地、化石能源地、草地、建筑用地、水域、林地。耕地生态足迹是生态足迹中最重要的组成部分,在总的生态足迹中所占比重最大,中部6省耕地的生态足迹时间序列数据比较平稳,在考察时间内从1989年的0.4241上涨到2011年的0.5851,上升趋势较平稳,但由于耕地生态足迹所占比重大,尽管增长速度缓慢,但对中部6省生态足迹总的影响较大。建筑用地和林地生态足迹虽然增长幅度较大,但由于基数小,因此建筑生态足迹和林地生态足迹对中部6省生态足迹总的影响较小。草地、水域和化石能源用地生态足迹基数大,增长幅度也大,加上耕地生态足迹,共同决定了中部6省人均生态足迹的逐年上升趋势。     

青岛市生态足迹动态研究

利用生态足迹和生态承载力度量和评价1995—2004年间的青岛市可持续发展程度。结果发现,随着经济的发展和社会的进步青岛市的生态足迹显著上升,各类用地都呈现增加趋势,耕地增加程度最大,而水域则表现出不稳定;承载力明显下降,其中主要是耕地承载力下降,林地、水域等其他用地则有相对的提高。生态足迹和承载力的变化造成生态赤字进一步加大。将单位生态足迹内产生的GDP作为生态效率,可以发现青岛市的生态效率呈现增加趋势,表明青岛市的资源利用效率明显增加。按照1995到2004年的发展趋势,青岛在未来十年的生态赤字将进一步加大,通过科学技术提高生态效率是青岛降低生态赤字的主要途径。文章首次分析了青岛市的生态足迹动态,提出了降低生态赤字的途径,为青岛市的可持续发展提供了理论参考。     

区域一体化地区的土地利用与生态服务价值研究——以双莱先行区为例

区域一体化先行区是统筹区域发展的重要保障,在整合区域资源、实现合作共赢、推进经济协调发展的同时,增加了生态用地风险与压力,影响了生态用地规模与生态服务功能。探讨区域一体化背景下的土地利用与生态服务价值关系,对管理区域环境、制定发展决策、平衡地区经济与生态保护均具有重要意义。“双莱先行区”作为山东省首个区域一体化发展先行区,研究其土地利用变化与生态服务价值（ESV）对实现生态文明建设与经济的协同发展具有重要意义。基于此,以双莱先行区为研究区域,选取2000-2020年土地利用数据和经济数据,采用土地利用动态度、ESV当量因子评估、敏感性指数、空间自相关等方法,评估了不同土地类型、不同生态功能、不同区域的ESV变化,分析了土地利用与ESV的空间相关性。与以往研究不同,研究修正当量因子价值时,不采用省份平均粮食单产量,而是莱西、莱阳各自的单产量,尽可能保障计算结果的准确性与真实性。研究表明：除耕地、林地面积减少外,草地、湿地、水体、建设用地面积均增加,建设用地增量最大;各用地类型单一动态度有所差异,例如草地增加10.1%,而耕地降低了0.29%,呈现相反变化趋势;近20年双莱先行区整体生态服...     

基于生态足迹模型的区域可持续发展定量评估——以东江流域东源县为例

可持续发展定量评价方法研究是当前可持续发展研究的前沿和热点.生态足迹分析模型是通过对区域人口对自然利用程度的测度,确定区域的发展是否处于生态承载力范围之内.运用生态足迹理论和计算方法,采用2004-2007年东源县统计年鉴、历年年初土地面积、2002世界粮农组织(FAO)和世界自然基金会(WWF)的相关数据,对重点饮用水源地--东源县14 a(1994-2007年)来人均生态足迹和人均生态承载力进行实证计算和分析.结果表明:2007年的东源县人均生态足迹需求为0.856 1 hm~2·cap~(-1),而实际人均生态空间面积(均衡承载力面积)为1.641 8 hm~2·cap~(-1),人均生态盈余为0.588 7hm~2·cap~(-1).14 a来东源县的生态承载力总体上几乎都是大于生态需求(除了1995年、1996年生态需求略大于生态供给外),处于生态盈余状态且生态盈余呈现稳中增长的趋势,区域生态系统处于一种相对可持续状态.其中,林地生态承载量最大,生态盈余最多,呈现逐年减少的态势;耕地生态承载量次之,生态足迹最大,生态赤字大,生态压力严重;水域和草地的生态压力逐年增大.     

长江口海域表层沉积物污染及其潜在生态风险评价

根据2004年8月份长江口海域表层沉积物的监测基础资料,采用单因子污染参数法和Hakanson前在生态风险指数法,通过分析长江口不同水域表层沉积物中典型污染要素PCB,Hg,Cd,Pb,As的质量分数,评价了长江口表层沉积物的质量状况。定量确定了长江口表层沉积物的潜在生态风险程度、主要污染因子和潜在生态风险因子;分析了近年来长江口表层沉积物总的潜在生态风险和单个污染要素的潜在生态风险的变化趋势。结果表明:长江口表层沉积物质量状况良好,各典型污染要素的质量分数值均小于背景值,典型污染要素的平均综合指数Cd为1.37,典型污染要素的污染程度由高至低顺序为As>Pb>Hg>PCB>Cd,As是主要环境污染因子;长江口各水域表层沉积物总的对水域均只具有低潜在生态风险,其由高至低的排列顺序为杭州湾北岸>长江口南支>长江口北支>长江口外;各典型污染物对水域也均只具有低潜在生态风险,其由高至低顺序为Hg>PCB>Cd>As>Pb,Hg是主要潜在生态风险因子;近年来,长江口表层沉积物总的潜在生态风险和单个污染物的潜在生态风险均呈现增加趋势。     

中国中部六省生态足迹实证分析

生态足迹是一种定量评价区域资源可持续利用的生态经济指标,其方法紧扣可持续发展的理论,是一个涉及系统性、公平性和延续性的综合指标,具有可度量性、计算合理性和结果可比性等优点。在介绍其概念、计算模型的基础上,针对中国中部六省的资源和能源消费状况进行了实证分析。研究表明:本区2004年人均生态足迹1.793hm2,生态承载力为0.488hm2·人-1,生态足迹需求与供给的比例为3.677∶1,人均生态赤字为1.305hm2,说明中部地区的发展已经超出了生态承载力的阈值;该区生态足迹多样性指数1.336,万元GDP足迹1.982hm2,生态协调系数1.227等,也反映了中部地区处于一种不可持续的发展状态。

The calculation of equivalence factor for ecological footprints in China: a methodological note

The Ecological Footprint (EF), a physical indicator to measure the extent of humanity’s use of natural resources, has gained much attention since it was first used by Wackernagel and Rees in 1996. In order to appraise land area types with different levels of productivity, they introduced the concept of an equivalence factor. This relates to the average primary biomass productivities of different types of land (i.e. arable land, pasture, forest, water/fishery, built-up land and fossil energy land) to the regional average primary biomass productivity of all land types in a given year. Hence, the equivalence factor is an important parameter in the EF model and it directly affects the reliability of all results. Thus, this article calculates equivalence factors on the national and provincial levels in China based on Net Primary Production (NPP) from MODIS 1 km data in 2008. Firstly, based on the Light Utility Efficiency and CASA model, the NPP of different biologically productive lands of China and of different provinces was calculated. Secondly, China’s equivalence factor for 6 land area types was calculated based on NPP: arable land and built-up land has an equivalence factor of 1.71, forest and fossil energy land has a factor of 1.41, pasture has a factor of 0.44 and water/fishery 0.35; Finally, the equivalence factor of 6 land area types in different provinces was also calculated. The NPP of each ecosystem type varies along with the equivalence factor in different provinces. However, the ranking of the equivalence factors in different provinces remain the same, with that of arable land being the largest, and the water/fishery being the smallest.     

铅在植物-环境体系中的吸收、分布和迁移规律的稳定同位素示踪法研究

以低浓度的稳定铅同位素为示踪剂,采用电感耦合等离子质谱法,通过盆栽实验,考察了在不同的pH值环境和不同铅源引入方式下,茶树植株对铅的吸收情况以及铅在植株体内的分布及迁移规律.结果表明:茶树植株对大气铅源污染的反应比土壤铅源污染灵敏;大气铅源污染有往顶端(芽)迁移的趋势,而土壤铅源污染则主要聚集在根部;低pH条件增强植株对铅的吸收且能促使植株体内的铅的往高处迁移.本实验方法危害小,更接近植株承受低浓度污染的实际情况,能区分实验引入铅源和环境引入铅源.     

Morphometric variables of honeybees Apis mellifera used in ecotypes characterization in Argentina

The honeybee Apis mellifera has evolved in different environments and has developed different ecotypes. The objective of the Honeybee Genetic program in Argentina (MeGA) is to select honeybees adapted to different regions in the country using an important number of colonies as base population. In the last years, morphometric analyses are being incorporated into the Program as a tool for characterization of genetic materials; this fact has motivated the present work. A random sample of honeybee workers (250) was taken from 30 colonies situated in different regions in the country. The proboscis, right hind leg, right forewing and hind wing were placed on a slide and the following variables were measured: length and width of forewing and hind wing, different angles and length of wing veins, the length of the tibia, femur and metatarsi, the width of the metatarsi and the length of the proboscis. Thirty morphometrical variables were analyzed and the distribution and relation between them were recorded.     

Fluoride in Ceylon tea and its implications to dental health

The purpose of this study was to assess the fluoride content of Ceylon Tea, which is a popular beverage throughout the world. The fluoride content of tea infusions prepared from different grades of tea leaves collected from different parts of the tea-growing regions (25 samples) of Sri Lanka was measured using a fluoride-selective electrode. Fluoride leaching was found to vary from 0.32 to 1.69 mg F/l, but there were no significant differences in terms of fluoride leaching between tea from different tea-growing regions or between tea of different grades. Dental fluorosis is widespread throughout the dry zone of Sri Lanka, and drinking water has traditionally been considered to be the main contributory factor to the development of fluorosis. However, diet, the consumption of tea in particular, may also contribute to the manifestation of dental diseases.

Predator type, not body condition, influences positioning within whirligig groups

The anti-predator responses of an animal may depend on the species of predator attacking. For example, ground-dwelling monkeys respond with different warning calls in response to attacks from hawks from above vs attacks from leopards at the side. In grouping animals, it has usually been assumed that the best anti-predator behavior against most predators is to move toward the center of a group. However, little work has been done to study positioning of individuals in response to different predators and whether it might be influenced by gender or body condition. An optimality model is developed that gives predictions for how the needs of predator avoidance, drafting, and foraging could lead to one optimal location within the group. We then conducted a laboratory experiment with individually marked whirligig beetles (Coleoptera: Gyrinidae). We exposed them to an aerial (bird) or aquatic (fish) attack and determined changes in their distance to the front of groups at different speeds of water. We found that female whirligigs occupied the front of a group in response to a fish attack in fast water, but the back after an aerial bird attack, while the reverse was true for males. In slow water, different results were found; in response to a bird attack, females were more likely to be found in the front compared with males. Body condition was not correlated to the front/back position of either males or females before or after attacks in our study.     

抗生素最小抑制浓度法(MICs)评估环境大肠杆菌抗生素抗性

2015年世界卫生组织将抗生素的滥用列为21世纪最大的挑战之一,全球范围内抗生素抗药性的散播已严重威胁人类的健康。如何检测环境中的细菌抗药性,并有效评估抗药性感染的风险,是环境微生物研究的一项重要课题。本文通过改进的培养基微量稀释(broth micro-dilution)法,确定了2个地区(中国成都和美国夏威夷)不同环境来源(天然水系和市政污水)的大肠杆菌的抗生素最小抑制浓度(minimum inhibitory concentrations,MICs)。计算所得的MIC分位数(MIC50和MIC90)、菌体抗性百分比及多抗药性指数(multiple antibiotic resistance indexes,MARIs)显示两地不同环境区划的抗生素抗性存在明显的差异。天然水系(成都锦江)中的抗生素抗性是随时间可变的,与当地的降雨事件相关。环境菌株的抗药性模式通过聚类和非度量多维测度(non-metric multidimensional scaling,NMDS)进行分析。广谱β-内酰胺酶基因筛查显示出抗性基因与抗性表型之间的正相关性。结合现有的两地抗生素的使用数据讨论了两地环境抗生素抗性与当地人类活动及抗生素的使用实践之间的紧密联系。采集环境菌株抗生素MIC数据的实验及数据分析方法实现了环境抗药性的跨时空对比,为规范抗生素的区域性使用提供了指导作用。

A mathematical model for the uptake of heavy metals in benthic algae

A mathematical model for the uptake of heavy metals in the benthic algae Ascophyllum nodosum has been developed. The model allows assignment of age-dependent growth parameters which also may be a function of external factors. Mortality curves for A. nodosum corresponding to a highly polluted and a nearly unpolluted area have been used in the study of metal uptake. Uptake has been simulated for different values of growth parameters and different concentrations of heavy metals in seawater. Emphasis has been on the uptake of zinc. The simulations showed that the concentration of zinc in the algae changed much less (6%) than the biomass (30%) with changes in intrinsic growth rate, mortality and carrying capacity.The concentration in the algae was found to be an approximately linear function of the mean concentration in seawater up to about 100 ppb. At very high concentrations, associated with high mortality, the deviation from linearity may be significant (about 13% at 162 ppb at one locality). The calculation indicates further that variations in the zinc concentration in the seawater are considerably damped in the algae.Simulations have also been performed to study the effects of sampling different parts of the algae, and some initial simulations have been performed to study the effects of heavy metal exchange between algae and sea water.     

Changes in the level of transaminases in Indian major carp, Labeo rohita exposed to sublethal concentration of tannery and distillery effluents

The activity of alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AAT) of different tissues of fingerlings of Labeo rohita under the influence of two effluents has been studied. The alanine aminotransferase activity was increased over the control in different exposed periods of tannery and distillery effluent treatments. The alanine aminotransferase in the liver showed increased activity at different periods than that of the muscle, kidney, gill and brain (p < 0.001) (60.09%) over the control during the 40 days exposure in both the effluents treatments. The increased activity of alanine aminotransferase was highly significant (p > 0.001) in all the tissue in tannery and distillery effluents treatments. Similarly aspartate aminotransferase activity was increased over the control in all the treated tissues from 10 to 40 days exposure. But this increase, was not significant in the muscle tissue in distillery and tannery treatements after 10 days exposure. From 10 to 40 days, the activity was increased but a maxmum elevation was observed during 40 days, where the elevation was more in the liver, which was followed by muscle, kidney, gill, brain (brain < gill < kidney < muscle < liver).
