欧洲的氮状况

欧洲(不包括前苏联)的氮收支表明,欧洲氮循环加速的三个主要驱动力是肥料生产(14MtN/a)、矿物燃料燃烧及其它工业(3.3MtN/a)和各种产品中的氮输入(7.6MtN/a).本文估计了欧洲粮食、能源和工业产品系统中活性氮元素的各种泄漏,评估了它们对人类健康及水陆生态系统的影响.考虑到氮流转中的可能后果,未来欧洲有关封闭氮循环和减少活性氮泄漏的环境政策措施最好集中于三个主要驱动力.在确定氮排放上限和制定氯流控制的综合政策方面,如肥料使用、输入和氮水平,临界负载可能是非常有用的工具.

45,X/46,XY chromosome mosaicism detected by midtrimester amniocentesis in amniocyte clones

Amniocyte clones from a mid-trimester pregnancy disclosed 45,X/46,XY sex chromosome mosaicism. Because of the uncertainty concerning the phenotype of the fetus, the parents elected to terminate the pregnancy. Mixed (asymmetrical) gonadal dysgenesis was not found. The fetus appeared to have a normal male uro-genital system. No malformations of any type were detected, although as expected, the fetus did have 45,X/46,XY mosaicism.     

e-Serem – A Web-Based Manual For The Estimation of Emission Reductions From JI and CDM Projects

This paper presentse-SEREM (Smart Emission ReductionEstimation Manual), a cost-free, easilyaccessed and updated, web-based manual forestimating emission reductions from Joint Implementation (JI) andClean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects. e-SEREM's main functions arethe selection of a benchmark for a specificproject type in the power or heat sectorand the calculation of the annual andcumulative emission reductions accrued bythis project for its crediting lifetime.e-SEREM was developed in order to test itsapplicability and practicality in assistingproject developers and evaluators toelaborate baselines easily and calculatethe emission credits earned by candidate JIor CDM projects hosted in several countries.
