青鳉鱼的行为特征提取研究

采用生物行为传感器获取青鳉鱼的行为数据时,青鳉鱼个体差异会导致采集到的原始电信号在时空特性下完全不同。重要的行为特征往往被隐藏在原始信号中,传统的信号处理方法无法实时而有效地提取到这些特征。针对这个问题,观察并记录了暴露实验前后青鳉鱼的行为变化,提出了一种可以高效表征行为特征的直方图统计算法。实验结果表明,该方法能够准确对应人眼观测到的暴露实验前后鱼的行为变化趋势,同时也为后续异常行为识别提供一定的支持和参考。     

High overlap between traditional ecological knowledge and forest conservation found in the Bolivian Amazon

It has been suggested that traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) may play a key role in forest conservation. However, empirical studies assessing to what extent TEK is associated with forest conservation compared with other variables are rare. Furthermore, to our knowledge, the spatial overlap of TEK and forest conservation has not been evaluated at fine scales. In this paper, we address both issues through a case study with Tsimane’ Amerindians in the Bolivian Amazon. We sampled 624 households across 59 villages to estimate TEK and used remote sensing data to assess forest conservation. We ran statistical and spatial analyses to evaluate whether TEK was associated and spatially overlapped with forest conservation at the village level. We find that Tsimane’ TEK is significantly and positively associated with forest conservation although acculturation variables bear stronger and negative associations with forest conservation. We also find a very significant spatial overlap between levels of Tsimane’ TEK and forest conservation. We discuss the potential reasons underpinning our results, which provide insights that may be useful for informing policies in the realms of development, conservation, and climate. We posit that the protection of indigenous cultural systems is vital and urgent to create more effective policies in such realms.     

Effects of pre-oxidation and adsorption on haloacetonitrile and trichloronitromethane formation during subsequent chlorination

In this study, the effects of pre-oxidants permanganate (PM), persulfate (PS), hydrogen peroxide (PO), and ozone (OZ)) and/or adsorption on pseudoboemite-chitosan shell magnetic nanoparticles (ACMNs) on haloacetonitrile (HAN) and trichloronitromethane (TCNM) formation from aspartic acid (Asp; positive charge) and/or histidine (His; negative charge) were compared. Asp and His apparently do not interact in aqueous solution during chlorination. Asp and/or His can undergo partially oxidation by PM, but are recalcitrant to direct oxidation by PS and PO. Pre-oxidation with OZ decreases the formation of HANs but increases the formation of TCNM. ACMN prefers to adsorb Asp over His in the competitive sorption of coexisting Asp and His because of attractive electrostatic interactions. The rank order for the effect of the pre-oxidants and ACMN adsorption on dichloroacetonitrile and trichloroacetonitrile formation is OZ and ACMN adsorption > PM and ACMN adsorption > PS and ACMN adsorption > PO and ACMN adsorption; that for the effect of the pre-oxidants and ACMN adsorption on TCNM formation is PM and ACMN adsorption > PS and ACMN adsorption > PO and ACMN adsorption > OZ and ACMN adsorption. The favored adsorption of Asp over His by ACMN is weakened by pre-oxidation.

多环芳烃典型电子性质与其大型蚤光致毒性的构效关系研究

多环芳烃(PAHs)是环境中广泛分布的持久性有毒有机污染物,备受研究者关注。基于密度泛函理论(DFT)先期计算PAHs前线分子轨道能隙可能与其光致毒性诱发所需吸收光照辐射能有一致性,本研究选取非取代PAHs对大型蚤(Daphnia magna)光致毒性实验数据,通过DFT计算典型电子性质,由偏最小二乘(PLS)分析方法优化发展了定量构效关系模型,经与前人结果比较和验证其拟合优度、稳定性和内外部预测性能均有显著提升,可在应用域(AD)范围内准确预测PAHs光致毒性而满足风险评估需求。构效关系分析结果表明,PAHs光致毒性与分子前线轨道能隙紧密相关,除苯并[k]荧蒽和屈可能具有不同的光致毒性作用机制之外,多数PAHs若具有较低的前线轨道能隙、较小分子稳定性和较大分子变形性,均将有利于促进其光致毒性作用的发生;结合PAHs光致毒性与分子前线轨道能隙间的相关关系,可推测DFT计算前线轨道能隙宽度在2.740~4.208 e V之间和对应光照辐射波段约为295 nm~450 nm时,PAHs污染暴露将可能诱发较高的光致毒性效应。这为太阳光照射下PAHs光致毒性作用机制阐释和风险评价提供了数据支持与理论依据。     

菲和铬(Ⅵ)单一及复合暴露对土壤微生物多样性的影响

有机物和重金属已成为我国土壤环境中常见的2类污染物质,二者间复合污染引起的土壤生态环境风险不容忽视。本研究以多环芳烃模式物菲和典型重金属铬(VI)作为受试物质,采用PCR-DGGE分子指纹图谱技术,探讨这2种污染物单一及复合暴露对土壤微生物群落多样性的影响,并选用主成分分析、聚类分析和戴斯系数3种算法对微生物群落相似性进行了比较。结果表明,在暴露实验第1天,菲单一暴露低浓度组中微生物群落相似性产生了极为明显的变化,而到第7天时,菲和铬(VI)单一暴露高浓度组均对微生物群落结构相似性产生最大程度的影响;采用香农指数法评价微生物群落的多样性,发现在暴露实验第7天,菲和铬(VI)单一暴露高浓度组对微生物群落多样性的影响比复合暴露高浓度组更强,二者复合暴露的相互作用方式表现为拮抗效应。本研究证明低浓度菲短期暴露的效应高于高浓度暴露结果,因而多环芳烃菲自身及其在复合暴露中所扮演的角色尤其值得关注。
