沿海城市降水中总汞及汞同位素特征研究

大气汞沉降是汞从排放源进入地表系统最主要的迁移途径,利用汞同位素追踪汞在大气中的迁移转化规律及潜在来源对研究汞的生物地球化学循环具有重要意义.本研究于2012—2013年对厦门市小坪、坂头、鼓浪屿和洪文站点降水中总汞(THg)浓度和汞同位素的变化特征进行了研究.结果表明,厦门降水中THg浓度为1.0～59.4 ng·L~(-1),大气THg湿沉降量为13.1μg·m~(-2)·a~(-1).厦门冷、暖季降水中THg浓度相当,但由于暖季丰沛的降水量,导致暖季THg的湿沉降量约为冷季的2.5倍.降水样品中均表现出负的偶数汞同位素质量分馏(δ~(202)Hg,-2.2‰～-1.5‰)、正的奇数汞同位素非质量分馏(Δ~(199)Hg,0.08‰～0.22‰),以及轻微偏正的偶数汞同位素非质量分馏(Δ~(200)Hg,0.01‰～0.07‰).厦门降水中奇数汞同位素非质量分馏是大气汞液相光致还原反应的结果.偶数汞同位素非质量分馏不明显与其处于较低的纬度有关.厦门降水中δ~(202)Hg接近于厦门当地及贵州燃煤烟气中的δ~(202)Hg值,表明厦门降水中汞可能受到本地或传输过来的燃煤排放的影响.     

炼焦过程及周边环境颗粒物中水溶性无机离子特征

为明确炼焦过程排放颗粒物及周边环境颗粒物中水溶性无机离子的污染特征,于2012年5月利用改良的标准大体积总悬浮颗粒采样器采集燃烧室废气烟囱排放、焦炉顶无组织排放及焦炉周边环境空气TSP（total suspended particulates,总悬浮颗粒物）样品,使用Staplex234大流量采样器采集焦炉顶无组织排放及焦炉周边环境空气PM_1.4样品,采用ICS-90离子色谱仪测试样品中SO₄2-、NH₄+、Ca2+、Cl-、NO₃-、F-、Mg2+、K+、Na+共9种水溶性无机离子.结果表明:SO₄2-为炼焦过程排放的特征离子.炼焦过程燃烧室废气烟囱排放的TSP中总水溶性无机离子质量浓度最高,为（5 493±901）μg/m3;其次为焦炉顶无组织排放的TSP,其总水溶性无机离子质量浓度为（902±222）μg/m3;焦炉周边环境空气的TSP中总水溶性无机离子质量浓度最低,为（712±288）μg/m3.SO₄2-为燃烧室废气烟囱排放TSP与燃煤锅炉烟气排放颗粒物中共有的主要特征离子,但与燃煤锅炉烟气相比,燃烧室废气烟囱排放的w（SO₄2-）略低,w（F-）则相反.NH₄+较易富集于焦炉顶无组织排放的细颗粒物中,而SO₄2-则较易富集于粗颗粒物中.研究显示,炼焦过程及焦炉周边环境空气颗粒物中9种水溶性无机离子分布特征不同,SO₄2-是燃烧室废气烟囱排放、焦炉顶无组织排放的TSP中质量浓度最高的水溶性无机离子.      

扬水曝气强化催化氧化去除水中有机微污染物

以γ-Al2O3为载体,采用浸渍焙烧法制备了负载型催化剂RuO2-CeO2/γ-Al2O3、Fe2O3-CeO2/γ-Al2O3、Fe2O3/γ-Al2O3。在扬水曝气条件下,以西安某水源水库水为原水,考察了各催化剂对有机微污染物的净化效果,实验发现,催化剂反复多次使用并无明显失活现象,连续使用20 d以消除单纯吸附的影响后,仍然可在7 d内使UV254、CODMn、DOC的去除率分别达到38%、28%和27%。离子溶出实验表明,Fe2O3/γ-Al2O3有很好的稳定性。综合考虑处理效果、制备工艺以及制备成本,选择Fe2O3/γ-Al2O3为最佳催化剂。为了使催化剂Fe2O3/γ-Al2O3具有最佳活性,分别考察了焙烧时间、焙烧温度、浸渍液浓度、浸渍时间等,并对其制备工艺进行了优化。然后反应前后水样的分子量测定结果表明,反应后大分子比例下降,而小分子比例提高,说明催化氧化将一定量的大分子降解成为小分子。     

纯二氧化碳条件下小球藻固定CO2

微藻固碳已经成为消减温室气体排放的新的研究热点。利用静态吸收方法,考查了通人纯CO2对普通小球藻生长特点、固定CO2效率以及藻液pH值变异的影响。结果表明：通入纯CO2使小球藻生长延滞期显著延长,比普通培养延长10～12d,对其他生长阶段的影响不大;小球藻固定CO2速率可分为2个过程,即物理固碳过程和生物固碳过程,前者在藻细胞延滞期发生,峰值由CO。溶解于培养液造成,后者在藻细胞生长的指数期、稳定期和衰退期发生,峰值由藻细胞指数生长造成,2个过程中,固定CO2速率的变化趋势都是先增大后降低;纯CO2条件下,藻液pH值变化速率高,4d内,藻液即被酸化,随后藻液pH值变化速率逐渐降低,且pH值稳定在适宜水平。因此,采用小球藻固定高浓度CO2时,建议提高接种量并加强培养前期的pH值监测和调控,以保证藻液保持适宜的pH值,并缩短培养时间,提高生物固碳效率。

Black Disease (Terpios hoshinota): A Probable Cause for the Rapid Coral Mortality at the Northern Reef of Yongxing Island in the South China Sea

The northern reef of Yongxing Island, the largest reef island of the Xisha Islands in the South China Sea, was in good condition with significant cover of scleractinian corals until 2002. Surveys in 2008 and 2010, however, found that coral coverage had declined rapidly and severely, implying that catastrophic coral mortality occurred during the past 8 years. A blackish mat was observed covering live and dead corals in both 2008 and 2010 that was identified as an encrusting sponge, Terpios hoshinota, by special surface morphology and spicule structure. In addition, spicule residues were found on the surface of long-dead corals, indicating a previous invasion of T. hosinota. T. hoshinota is referred to as the "black disease" because it rapidly overgrows and kills corals. Our evidence indicates that outbreaks of black disease are at least partially responsible for the massive coral mortality at the northern reef of Yongxing Island over the past 8 years, although human activities and heat-related coral bleaching cannot be discounted as minor causes for this coral decline.     

Aviation and global climate change in the 21st century

Aviation emissions contribute to the radiative forcing (RF) of climate. Of importance are emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂), nitrogen oxides (NO_x), aerosols and their precursors (soot and sulphate), and increased cloudiness in the form of persistent linear contrails and induced-cirrus cloudiness. The recent Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) quantified aviation's RF contribution for 2005 based upon 2000 operations data. Aviation has grown strongly over the past years, despite world-changing events in the early 2000s; the average annual passenger traffic growth rate was 5.3% yr^?1 between 2000 and 2007, resulting in an increase of passenger traffic of 38%. Presented here are updated values of aviation RF for 2005 based upon new operations data that show an increase in traffic of 22.5%, fuel use of 8.4% and total aviation RF of 14% (excluding induced-cirrus enhancement) over the period 2000–2005. The lack of physical process models and adequate observational data for aviation-induced cirrus effects limit confidence in quantifying their RF contribution. Total aviation RF (excluding induced cirrus) in 2005 was ～55 mW m^?2 (23–87 mW m^?2, 90% likelihood range), which was 3.5% (range 1.3–10%, 90% likelihood range) of total anthropogenic forcing. Including estimates for aviation-induced cirrus RF increases the total aviation RF in 2005–78 mW m^?2 (38–139 mW m^?2, 90% likelihood range), which represents 4.9% of total anthropogenic forcing (2–14%, 90% likelihood range). Future scenarios of aviation emissions for 2050 that are consistent with IPCC SRES A1 and B2 scenario assumptions have been presented that show an increase of fuel usage by factors of 2.7–3.9 over 2000. Simplified calculations of total aviation RF in 2050 indicate increases by factors of 3.0–4.0 over the 2000 value, representing 4–4.7% of total RF (excluding induced cirrus). An examination of a range of future technological options shows that substantive reductions in aviation fuel usage are possible only with the introduction of radical technologies. Incorporation of aviation into an emissions trading system offers the potential for overall (i.e., beyond the aviation sector) CO₂ emissions reductions. Proposals exist for introduction of such a system at a European level, but no agreement has been reached at a global level.     

海藻生物吸附废水中铅、铜和镉的研究
