Challenges in quantifying biosphere-atmosphere exchange of nitrogen species

Recent research in nitrogen exchange with the atmosphere has separated research communities according to N form. The integrated perspective needed to quantify the net effect of N on greenhouse-gas balance is being addressed by the NitroEurope Integrated Project (NEU). Recent advances have depended on improved methodologies, while ongoing challenges include gas-aerosol interactions, organic nitrogen and N(2) fluxes. The NEU strategy applies a 3-tier Flux Network together with a Manipulation Network of global-change experiments, linked by common protocols to facilitate model application. Substantial progress has been made in modelling N fluxes, especially for N(2)O, NO and bi-directional NH(3) exchange. Landscape analysis represents an emerging challenge to address the spatial interactions between farms, fields, ecosystems, catchments and air dispersion/deposition. European up-scaling of N fluxes is highly uncertain and a key priority is for better data on agricultural practices. Finally, attention is needed to develop N flux verification procedures to assess compliance with international protocols.     

改革开放30年再生资源行业变迁

再生资源回收利用自建国初期就受到党和国家的高度重视,1958年周总理为其题词：“实行废品收购,变无用为有用,变一用为多用,勤俭节约,变破旧为崭新,把工农商学兵连成一片,密切协作,为全面地发展生产服务,以便更好地实现勤俭建国,改造社会的任务。”国务院专门发布了《关于加强对废弃物品收购和利用工作的指示》,把一切废弃物品广泛收集和充分利用起来,以支援国家的社会主义建设。文革期间,再生资源的回收利用受到了一定的影响。     

Antioxidative response to Cd in a newly discovered cadmium hyperaccumulator, Arabis paniculata F

A hydroponic experiment was carried out to study the effect of cadmium (Cd) on growth, Cd accumulation, lipid peroxidation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) content and antioxidative enzymes in leaves and roots of Arabis paniculata F., a new Cd hyperaccumuator found in China. The results showed that 22-89 microM Cd in solution enhanced the growth of A. paniculata after three weeks, with 21-27% biomass increase compared to the control. Cd concentrations in shoots and roots increased with increasing Cd supply levels, and reached a maximum of 1662 and 8670 mg kg(-1) Cd dry weight at 178 microM Cd treatment, respectively. In roots, 22-89 microM Cd reduced the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide (O(2)(-1)) and H(2)O(2) as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR). In leaves, the contents of MDA, O(2)(-1) and H(2)O(2) remained unaffected by 22-89 microM Cd, while 178 microM Cd treatment significantly increased the MDA content, 69.5% higher than that of the control; generally, the activities of SOD, catalase (CAT), GPX and APX showed an increasing pattern with increasing Cd supply levels. Our present work concluded that A. paniculata has a great capability of Cd tolerance and accumulation. Moderate Cd treatment (22-89 microM Cd) alleviated the oxidative stress in roots, while higher level of Cd addition (178 microM) could cause an increasing generation of ROS, which was effectively scavenged by the antioxidative system.

城市污染地区与高山清洁地区新粒子生成事件特征分析

在中国复合型污染的大气环境背景下,新粒子生成(New Particle Formation,NPF)是大气颗粒物的重要来源之一,直接影响到空气质量、云物理过程、全球辐射平衡及人类的生产生活.本文通过分析城市污染地区和高山清洁地区新粒子生成天和非新粒子生成天的特征差异,研究新粒子生成事件的关键影响因素.利用2016年3月12日—4月6日北京的观测资料和2012年9月23日—10月28日黄山的观测资料,分别代表城市污染地区和高山清洁地区进行研究,同时,结合同期气态前体物浓度和气象要素进行详尽的分析.结果表明,观测期间,北京发生新粒子生成事件的频率为42.3%,黄山发生新粒子生成事件的频率为25%,北京的新粒子生成速率J₃和J₁₀、增长速率GR_3～10和GR_10～25及凝结汇分别为3.30～51.39 cm^-3·s^-1和3.37～35.21 cm^-3·s^-1、0.10～2.89 nm·h^-1和1....     

Quality assessment of groundwater from the south-eastern Arabian Peninsula

Assessment of groundwater quality plays a significant role in the utilization of the scarce water resources globally and especially in arid regions. The increasing abstraction together with man-made contamination and seawater intrusion have strongly affected groundwater quality in the Arabia Peninsula, exemplified by the investigation given here from the United Arab Emirates, where the groundwater is seldom reviewed and assessed. In the aim of assessing current groundwater quality, we here present a comparison of chemical data linked to aquifers types. The results reveal that most of the investigated groundwater is not suitable for drinking, household, and agricultural purposes following the WHO permissible limits. Aquifer composition and climate have vital control on the water quality, with the carbonate aquifers contain the least potable water compared to the ophiolites and Quaternary clastics. Seawater intrusion along coastal regions has deteriorated the water quality and the phenomenon may become more intensive with future warming climate and rising sea level.
