浮游生物对天然海水中BHC农药残留量的浓缩作用研究

通过厦门邻近水域浮游生物对海水中BHC农药残留量的浓缩研究,发现该浓缩系数呈正态分布,中心趋势为318±116。在近岸海域,沿岸种类的浮游生物的浓缩系数受海水温度和盐度的明显影响。盐度在25—32‰情况下,浓缩系数与温度呈完全正相关;盐度是影响浓缩系数的敏感因素,pH值则是盐度影响的限定因素。在温度和pH值恒定条件下,浓缩系数与盐度呈明显负相关;pH值(8.00—8.50)的变化未表现出对浓缩系数的明显影响。     

The macro implications of a complete transformation of U.S. agricultural production to organic farming practices

A national interregional linear programming model of U.S. agriculture is used to evaluate and compare two conventional and three organic production alternatives. The objective is to estimate the effects on production, supply prices, land use, farm income, and export potential, of a complete transformation of U.S. agriculture to organic practices. Crop yields and production costs are estimated for 150 producing regions for seven crops under both conventional and organic methods. Results indicate that compared with conventional methods, widespread organic farming leads to a decrease in total production, lower export potential, higher supply prices, higher value of production, lower costs of production, and higher net farm income. The United States domestic crop demand can be met with organic methods, but would be more expensive. Some interregional shifts in crop production would also occur.
