Salinity and nutrient modulate soil bacterial communities in the coastal wetland of the Yellow River Delta,China

The Yellow River Delta is the largest and youngest estuarine and coastal wetland in China and is experiencing the most active interactions of seawater and freshwater in the world. Bacteria played multifaceted influence on soil biogeochemical processes, and it was necessary to investigate the intermodulation between the soil factors and bacterial communities. Soil samples were collected at sites with different salinity degree, vegetations, and interference. The sequences of bacilli were tested using 16S rRNA sequencing method and operational taxonomic units were classified with 97% similarity. The soil was highly salinized and oligotrophic, and the wetland was nitrogen-restricted. Redundancy analysis suggested that factors related with seawater erosion were principal to drive the changes of soil bacterial communities and then the nutrient level and human disturbance. A broader implication was that, in the early succession stages of the coastal ecosystem, seawater erosion was the key driver of the variations of marine oligotrophic bacterial communities, while the increasing nutrient availability may enhance in the abundance of the riverine copiotrophs in the late stages. This study provided new insights on the characteristics of soil bacterial communities in estuarine and coastal wetlands.

     

复合铁添加物对混合有机固废厌氧产氢的影响

将城镇污水处理厂的城市污泥与餐厨垃圾混合后,经厌氧消化处理后可产生能源气体氢气,从而达到资源化利用的目的.废铁屑是机械加工厂的固体废弃物,将其处理后可得到一种新型复合铁材料(FE/FEO).将城市污泥和餐厨垃圾预处理后按体积比1:1比例混合,分别等分放入2个反应器中,一个投加FE/FEO粉末作为为FE/FEO组,另一个不加FE/FEO作为对照组,考察了FE/FEO对上述混合有机固废厌氧产氢的影响.结果表明,在厌氧反应的24h内,FE/FEO组的最大氢气体积分数为61.4％,比不加FE/FEO的对照组增加了15％;FE/FEO组的累积产氢率和最大产氢率分别为49.0和22.7 L·kg4(以1 kg挥发性有机固体所能产生的氢气体积计),比对照组分别增加了56％和59％.FE/FEO组的亚铁离子质量浓度在第24 h达到最大,即109.8 mg-L-1.FE/FEO组产生的挥发性有机酸为2 675 mg·L-1,比对照组提高了15％.FE/FEO粉末中不仅含有零价铁、氧化亚铁,还有针孔状α-FeOOH,其结构松散、比表面积大,可对厌氧发酵系统中的微生物菌群起到支撑骨架作用.本研究结果可为提高有机固废厌氧发酵产氢效率提供参考.     

协同治理理论视角下连云港湾长制试点存在的问题及对策

近岸海域环境综合治理是典型的公共产品和公共服务,需要多个主体协同治理。连云港湾长制已实施两年多,虽取得了一定成效,但从协同治理理论来看,仍存在治理主体相对单一、公众参与不足问题。因此,今后应以协同治理理论为指导,形成多元的治理主体,树立各个治理主体的权威性,加强各治理主体的协同性,充分发挥各治理主体的积极性,共同推进湾长制的实施。

中国城市热岛时空特征及其影响因子的分析

全球气候变暖背景下,城市热岛效应会加重城市地区的热胁迫,对人类健康和生存发展提出严峻挑战.近年来我国雾-霾污染情况严重,但雾-霾对城市热岛影响的认识仍较匮乏.本研究基于MODIS遥感卫星地表温度数据,明确了我国2003~2013年白天、夜间以及四季城市热岛的空间变化,并从生物物理学和生物化学角度定量分析其控制机制.结果表明,影响我国白天城市热岛强度的主要因素为人口、农田灌溉和植被活动.纬度、降水量、反照率以及气溶胶浓度是夜间城市热岛强度的主控因子.从对比城乡粗糙度、反照率等生物物理学属性的角度,揭示了乡村背景环境对城市热岛分析的重要影响.结果表明,雾-霾治理可以缓解我国夜间城市热岛现象和热胁迫,有利于缓解区域甚至全球气候变化.
