In a Scots pine forest the throughfall deposition and the chemical composition of the soil solution was monitored since 1984. (Inter)national legislation measures led to a reduction of the deposition of nitrogen and sulphur. The deposition of sulphur has decreased by approximately 65%. The total mineral-nitrogen deposition has decreased by ca. 25%, which is mainly due to a reduction in ammonium-N deposition (−40%), since nitrate-N deposition has increased (+50%). The nitrogen concentration in the upper mineral soil solution at 10 cm depth has decreased, leading to an improved nutritional balance, which may result in improved tree vitality. In the drainage water at 90 cm depth the fluxes of NO3− and SO42− have decreased, resulting in a reduced leeching of accompanying base cations, thus preserving nutrients in the ecosystem. It may take still several years, however, before this will meet the prerequisite of a sustainable ecosystem. 相似文献

This experimental research addresses the effectiveness of communication about complex environmental issues, depending on whether the same information is provided by multiple collaborating or by individual organizations (i.e., stakeholders). The information provided pertains to carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technology, as an example of a complex environmental issue. In Studies 1 (N = 75) and 2 (N = 66) we found that participants perceived factual information from collaborating stakeholders to be of higher quality than when the same information was provided by individual stakeholders. As predicted, the expectation of diverse perspectives being represented in the collaborative information mediated this effect. In addition, in Study 3 (N = 79) the perceived dissimilarity of collaborating stakeholders was shown to be an important precondition for the collaboration effect observed in Studies 1 and 2. Finally, these studies indicate that occasional collaboration between different stakeholders does not necessarily harm the perceived credibility of each individual stakeholder. 相似文献

Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl as an Antiknock: Composition and Fate of Manganese Exhaust Products 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) has been marketed as a combustion improver for fuel oil and turbine fuel. Use concentrations for this purpose are about 0.025 g manganese/gal in fuel oil and 0.08 to 0.5 g/gal in turbine fuels. In addition, it has been used to a small extent in gasoline. 相似文献

Simultaneous hermaphrodites have the opportunity to control the allocation of resources to the male and female function depending on the circumstances. Such flexibility also provides the possibility to influence sex allocation in the mating partner. To investigate this idea, we measured egg production (female investment) and sperm production as well as prostate gland size (both are part of male investment) under different mating regimes in the great pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis. We find no evidence for the prediction from sex allocation theory that sperm production increases with mating frequency. However, we do find that animals with more mating opporunities develop smaller prostate glands, in which seminal fluid is produced. Moreover, repeated mating increases egg production, thus shifting allocation towards the female function, and probably decreases growth. So, our data hint at a three-way trade-off between part of the male function (prostate gland), female function, and growth. Interestingly, sex allocation seems to be shifted in the opposite direction from the one predicted by theory. We discuss how this feminization is suggestive of a direct manipulation by the sperm donor, probably to stimulate immediate sperm use. 相似文献

Risks can generally be described as the combination of hazard, exposure and vulnerability. Using this framework, we evaluated
the historical and future development of risk of fire and wind damage in European forestry at the national level. Fire risk
is expected to increase, mainly as a consequence of an increase in fire hazard, defined as the Fire Weather Index in summer.
Exposure, defined as forest area, is expected to increase slightly as a consequence of active afforestation and abandonment
of marginal agricultural areas. Adaptation options to fire risk should therefore aim to decrease the vulnerability, where
a change in tree species from conifers to broadleaves had most effect. Risk for wind damage in forests is expected to increase
mainly as a consequence of increase in exposure (total growing stock) and vulnerability (defined by age class and tree species
distribution). Projections of future wind climate indicate an increase in hazard (storminess) mainly over Western Europe.
Adaptation options should aim to limit the increase in exposure and vulnerability. Only an increase in harvest level can stop
the current build-up of growing stock, while at the same time it will lower vulnerability through the reduction of the share
of old and vulnerable stands. Changing species from conifers to broadleaves helps to reduce vulnerability as well. Lowering
vulnerability by decreasing the rotation length is only effective in combination with a high demand for wood. Due to data
limitations, no forecast of future fire area or damaged timber amount by storms was possible. 相似文献

Vulnerability assessments are a cornerstone of contemporary disaster research. This paper shows how research procedures and the presentation of results of vulnerability assessments are politically filtered. Using data from a study of tsunami risk assessment in Portugal, the paper demonstrates that approaches, measurement instruments, and research procedures for evaluating vulnerability are influenced by institutional preferences, lines of communication, or lack thereof, between stakeholder groups, and available technical expertise. The institutional setting and the pattern of stakeholder interactions form a filter, resulting in a particular conceptualisation of vulnerability, affecting its operationalisation via existing methods and technologies and its institutional embedding. The Portuguese case reveals a conceptualisation that is aligned with perceptions prevalent in national government bureaucracies and the exclusion of local stakeholders owing to selected methodologies and assessment procedures. The decisions taken by actors involved in these areas affect how vulnerability is assessed, and ultimately which vulnerability reduction policies will be recommended in the appraisal. 相似文献

Since 1963 the waste-acid of the German titanium dioxide industry is discharged off the Dutch coast. From March 1980 on the dumping takes place in an area situated 40–80 km from the coast. Although about 2 500 000 kg waste-acid is discharged every day, until now no effects could be found on the plankton.This paper describes the study on the effects of the dumping on the chlorophyl-a concentration of the seawater at a site north of the dumping area, with the help of time series analysis. It is shown that considerable changes in the chlorophyl concentration occur during the dumping period and that these changes coincide with certain events within the dumping history. However, it is most remarkable that the starting of the dumping itself does not show an effect on the chlorophyl concentrations. Explanations are suggested, but could not be investigated yet.This study shows also that collecting data without a proper statistical design make it impossible to draw unambiguous conclusions based on those data. 相似文献
