Impact of dissolved organic matter on the photolysis of the ionizable antibiotic norfloxacin

Norfloxacin (NOR), an ionizable antibiotic frequently used in the aquaculture industry, has aroused public concern due to its persistence, bacterial resistance, and environmental ubiquity. Therefore, we investigated the photolysis of different species of NOR and the impact of a ubiquitous component of natural water — dissolved organic matter (DOM), which has a special photochemical activity and normally acts as a sensitizer or inhibiter in the photolysis of diverse organics; furthermore, scavenging experiments combined with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) were performed to evaluate the transformation of NOR in water. The results demonstated that NOR underwent direct photolysis and self-sensitized photolysis via hydroxyl radical (·OH) and singlet oxygen (¹O₂) based on the scavenging experiments. In addition, DOM was found to influence the photolysis of different NOR species, and its impact was related to the concentration of DOM and type of NOR species. Photolysis of cationic NOR was photosensitized by DOM at low concentration, while zwitterionic and anionic NOR were photoinhibited by DOM, where quenching of UOH predominated according to EPR experiments, accompanied by possible participation of excited triplet-state NOR and ¹O₂. Photo-intermediate identification of different NOR species in solutions with/without DOM indicated that NOR underwent different photodegradation pathways including dechlorination, cleavage of the piperazine side chain and photooxidation, and DOM had little impact on the distribution but influenced the concentration evolution of photolysis intermediates. The results implied that for accurate ecological risk assessment of emerging ionizable pollutants, the impact of DOM on the environmental photochemical behavior of all dissociated species should not be ignored.     

Growth and alkaline phosphatase activity of Chattonella marina and Heterosigma akashiwo in response to phosphorus limitation

The growth and alkaline phosphatase activity (APA) of two raphidophyceae species Chattonella marina and Heterosigma akashiwo were investigated in response to P-limitation and subsequent addition of dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP, NaH₂PO₄) and two dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) compounds: guanosine 5-monophosphate (GMP) and triethyl phosphate (TEP). APAlevels increased greatly after P-starvation as the decrease of the cellular phosphorus quotes (Q_p). C. marina responded to P-limitation quickly and strongly, with 10-fold increase in APA within 24 hr after P-starvation. The larger difference between maximal and minimal Q_p values in C. marina indicated its high capacity in P storage. APA of H. akashiwo wasmaximally enlarged about 2.5 times at 48 hr of P-starvation. After the addition of nutrients, cell numbers of C. marina increased in all treatments including the P-free culture, demonstrating the higher endurance of C. marina to P-limitation. However, those of H. akashiwo increased only in DIP and GMP cultures. APA increased only after the addition of the monophosphate ester GMP. The results suggest that quick responses of C. marina to P-limitation, high capacity in P storage as well as endurance for P-depletion provide this species an ecological advantage in phytoplankton community competition under DIP-limited conditions.     

基于QSAR和ICE模型的磺胺类药物的水质基准研究

药物水环境污染是一个严重的环境问题,引起了人们越来越多的关注。磺胺类药物是一类广泛使用的药物。文章应用水质毒性快速检测仪测定一系列磺胺类药物的发光菌毒性,建立发光菌毒性QSAR模型,从而解决ICE模型的基准物种毒性数据缺失的问题。基于发光菌毒性测试和QSAR、ICE毒性估算方法获得更多毒性数据,初步推导了保护水生生物的磺胺类化合物的水质基准,并为建立更加具有生态统计学意义的物种敏感性分布(SSD)模型提供一定的数据支撑。同时,结合国内外水环境中磺胺类药物的暴露水平,对我国磺胺类药物的风险水平做了初步评估,其中磺胺甲恶唑、磺胺嘧啶和磺胺喹恶林的风险较高。     

跨区域生态合作利益冲突的动态演化博弈分析

跨区域的生态合作是破解我国生态环境保护困境的途径之一,参与博弈各方的利益冲突情况是决定生态合作能否顺利开展的关键。采用非对称动态演化博弈模型对博弈过程中各方的利益冲突进行分析,结果表明:演化博弈的最终结局只与保护实施方的决策有关;政府干预可以显著改善生态合作的博弈结果;政府对跨区域生态合作结局的调整主要通过两条途径,其一是影响博弈双方的初始状态,其二是影响博弈双方的策略调整速度;政府干预并非总是带来好的生态保护结局。最后,在博弈均衡的基础上为我国跨区域生态合作提供了政策建议。     

典型污灌区水体中有机氯农药分布及来源分析

在干旱与半干旱地区,工业废水和生活污水灌溉农田作为一种有效的资源一直被广泛利用,但污水中有害成分也对灌区生态环境造成了很大影响。文章以太原小店污灌区为例,根据灌区灌渠和地下水流场分布,分别采集地表水样10个和地下水样20个,利用液液萃取-气相色谱法分析水样中有机氯农药(OCPs)含量。研究结果表明,地表水中OCPs浓度范围为32.21~671.82 ng/L(均值为184.21ng/L);所有地下水中OCPs浓度均未超过《地下水环境质量标准》中Ⅲ类标准,浓度范围为9.44~84.01 ng/L;污水回灌对地下水中OCPs分布具有一定的影响,不同灌溉方式区域中OCPs浓度依次为:污灌区清灌区背景点;经过污染物源解析,研究区水环境中,OCPs中滴滴涕主要来源于历史残留,六六六主要来源于林丹的近期使用。     

两类El Nio Modoki事件时西北太平洋秋季热带气旋生成地的差异

以同年是否发生印度洋偶极子(IOD)正位相事件为标准,本文将El Nio Modoki事件分为纯El Nio Modoki事件(p-ENM)、El Nio Modoki与IOD同时发生的事件(ENM-IOD)两类。选取了1979~2012年间较为显著的两次p-ENM事件(2004;2009)和两次ENM-IOD事件(1991;1994),对比发现:同类事件西北太平洋秋季热带气旋生成地的分布类似,但相比p-ENM事件,ENM-IOD事件的热带气旋生成地明显偏东。p-ENM秋季,西北太平洋西风异常较弱且局限在165°E以西,范围较窄;而ENM-IOD秋季,西风异常强劲,并向东越过日界线。这使得ENM-IOD秋季季风槽东侧与p-ENM相比东伸20°。同时,p-ENM秋季垂直风切变相对ENM-IOD秋季而言强度小,大值区窄,前者条件下热带气旋在西侧生成的可能性相对要大。季风槽位置和垂直风切变分布的差异,使得ENM-IOD秋季热带气旋生成地较p-ENM秋季明显偏东。

贵阳市土壤地球化学背景与生态环境分析

通过1∶250 000多目标区域地球化学调查,获得了贵阳市及邻区表、深层土壤中54项化学指标的地球化学背景值、基准值等参数。研究区总体土壤环境呈中偏酸性,对生态环境影响较大。土壤化学物质组成丰富,地球化学背景分布不均匀。除活动性强的化学组分对成土母质有分异外,多数化学组分对成土母质继承性显著。表层土壤有机碳、全碳、硫、氮、硒、氟和汞、镉、砷等的地球化学背景值显著高于深层土壤和我国其它城市地球化学基准值。前者适宜发展生态富硒特色农业,后者表明土壤环境安全形势严峻。土壤地球化学背景为生态环境评价和其它相关学科研究提供了科学基础,由此提出生态环境保护和利用建议。
