几种重金属对紫背萍过氧化氢酶活性的影响

通过测定被暴露植物分解过氧化氢后放出氧气的体积，确定紫背萍过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）的活性。结果表明，紫背萍暴露在Ｈｇ、Ｐｂ、Ｃｒ、Ｎｉ、Ｆｅ的溶液中，其ＣＡＴ活性除在Ｐｂ作用下明显降低外，在其它４种重金属的作用下都有不同程度的升高。这表明Ｐｂ对紫背萍 ＣＡＴ活性有抑制作用，而其它４种重金属对紫背萍ＣＡＴ均有刺激作用。紫背萍对５种重金属所表现出来的这种生态效应，是重金属水污染的植物潜在效应，植物的ＣＡＴ     

减排温室气体的经济手段：许可证交易和税收政策

生物氧化塔的应用

介绍了生物氧化培处理含油污水的装置运行情况．大量数据说明该塔具有操作弹性大，适用范围广，能耗低，脱除率高，不外排过剩的活性污泥等特点，具有广阔的推广应用前景。     

运用生物循环理论建立多元生物污水处理新工艺

以活性污泥法为主流工艺的现代污水处理技术,存在着工程投资大，运行费用高，管理复杂等缺点，按照生物循环基本理论要示是不完善的。多元生物污水处理是按照食物链代谢规律,运有生物循环理论，设计成微生物－植物－水生动物3个处理单元。污水中的有机物作为微生物人良料在第1单元被套氧微生物消化降解成CO2，H2O，NH^ 4,CH^-4等，除CH4作为生物能源可回收利用外，其它物质是植物的营养物质，在第2单元藻类等多种植物吸收，通过光合作用合成植物细胞，并释放氧气，在第1单元和第2单元增殖的细胞和藻类成为水生动物的食料，在第3单元被浮游动物和鱼类捕食，转化成动物蛋白，污水中的有机物在3个单元组成的生态净化系统中，被多样生物逐级利用，最终转化成植物细胞和动物蛋白，使污水得到净化，达到三级处理水平，不产生二次污 ，是一种安全的，对环境友好的污水处理新技术，在国外被誉为21世纪的新科技。该污水净化系统，按照生物循环基本理论进行工艺设计，通过生态平衡自我调控，具有工艺流程简单，投资省，运行费用低，管理简便等优点，适合我国国情，有广阔的应用前景，尤其适有于小城镇污水处理。

Optimizing the atmospheric sampling sites using fuzzy mathematic methods

A new approach applying fuzzy mathematic theorems, including the Primary Matrix Element Theorem and the Fisher Classification Method, was established to solve the optimization problem of atmospheric environmental sampling sites. According to its basis, an application in the optimization of sampling sites in the atmospheric environmental monitoring was discussed. The method was proven to be suitable and effective. The results were admitted and applied by the Environmental Protection Bureau (EPB) of many cities of China. A set of computer software of this approach was also comuletelv comniled and used.     

Gamergates in the myrmicine genus <Emphasis Type="Italic">Metapone</Emphasis> (Hymenoptera:Formicidae)

Gamergates (i.e. mated reproductive workers) are mostly known from ant species within the Ponerinae. We report here the discovery of gamergates in two species of the subfamily Myrmicinae. Until now, mated reproductive females in colonies of myrmicine species have been considered morphologically distinct from the worker caste. However, in two species of the myrmicine Metapone (Metapone madagascarica and a newly discovered, not yet described Metapone species) all workers have six ovarioles and a spermatheca; and some of them are mated. There are no morphological differences between mated and non-mated workers. Field observations and laboratory studies indicate that colonies of the Metapone species can reproduce with gamergates only.     

Vocal acrobatics in a Chinese frog, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Amolops tormotus</Emphasis>

Although amphibians are highly vocal, they generally emit only a limited number of acoustic communication signals. We report here the extraordinarily rich vocal repertoire of Amolops tormotus, a ranid species in China. These frogs produce countless vocalizations, some of which share features of birdsong or primate calls, e.g., ultrasonic frequency components, multiple upward and downward FM sweeps, and sudden onset and offset of selective harmonic components within a call note. Frame-by-frame video analysis of the frog's calling behavior suggests the presence of two pairs of vocal sacs that may contribute to the remarkable call-note complexity in this species.

Inventory of emissions from major air pollutant categories in Turkey

In this study, an inventory of air pollutant emission estimates from major air polluting sources in Turkey for period between 1985 and 2005 with 5-year intervals were estimated. Inventory covers anthropogenic sources of five major air pollutants of particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and non-methane volatile organic compounds. Their break-down with respect to main activity sectors were shown and their distribution by the largest industrial source categories were worked out as annual estimates. This inventory and its analysis point to serious environmental implications of air pollutants and a need to develop a policy plan for reducing these emissions.
