内蒙古白音锡勒牧场区域尺度草地退化现状评价

采用双指示种分析(TwoW-ay Indicators Species Analysis,TWINSPAN)和无偏对应分析(Detrended Correspondence Analysis,DCA)对内蒙古白音锡勒牧场范围内32个草地植物群落样点的样方数据进行群落数量分析,根据数量分析结果将研究区草地划分为轻度、中度和重度退化3个不同等级。分析了单位面积草地地上生物量干重与退化等级的关系,在此基础上给出了划分草地不同退化等级的生物量判别指标值。利用2004年的TM遥感数据,结合同期地面植物群落样方调查,比较了不同植被指数与地上生物量和群落盖度的相关性,建立了研究区草地地上生物量估产模型,估算了白音锡勒牧场区域尺度草地地上生物量,结合不同草地退化等级的生物量判别指标值进行了草地植被退化空间分析。结果表明:①草地生物量与草地植物群落退化密切相关,一般草地退化越严重,群落生物量越低;②比值植被指数(R VI)与地上生物量干重相关性最好(R 2=0.644);③研究区轻度退化、中度退化和重度退化的草地面积分别占研究区总面积的24.51%、43.63%和24.12%。

环丁砜-哌嗪溶液吸收烟道气中二氧化碳

采用搅拌实验装置,研究环丁砜溶液及不同配比的环丁砜-PZ复合溶液对烟道气中二氧化碳的吸收和解吸性能,揭示了吸收容量与酸碱度、时间之间的内在联系,并对CO2初始逸出温度、试液再生温度、试液再生率、再生pH下降率进行了细致记录分析。实验结果表明,环丁砜-PZ复合溶液配比为0.4∶0.6时:吸收效果最佳,吸收量约为0.126 mol;再生温度最高,为105℃;再生率最高,为90.34%。同时与相同配比的MEA、DEA相比具有较大再生优势。实验结果还表明,环丁砜-PZ复合体系之间存在负交互作用。     

Identification of priority pharmaceuticals in the water environment of China

In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to the trace-level contamination of pharmaceuticals in the water environment all over the world. Considering a large number of pharmaceuticals used, it is crucial to establish a priority list of pharmaceuticals that should be monitored and/or treated first. In the present study, we developed a ranking system based on the pharmaceutical consumption, removal performance in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and potential ecological effects, and applied to the situation of China. 39 pharmaceuticals, which had available consumption data and also been reported previously in the WWTPs of China, were selected as candidate pharmaceuticals. Among them, seventeen pharmaceuticals were considered as priority pharmaceuticals, out of which, erythromycin, diclofenac acid and ibuprofen, had the high priority. Compared with other literatures, we found that some pharmaceuticals given concerns to globally should also be included in the priority list in China; while some pharmaceuticals, not mentioned in other literatures, such as cefalexin, ketoconazole, should be also given prior consideration in China. Among all the therapeutic classes, antibiotics, which were grossly abused in China, contributed the most to the priority pharmaceuticals. However, priority antibiotics accounted for only 32% of candidate antibiotics, while 71% and 100% of the candidate anti-inflammatory and antilipidemic respectively were identified as the priority pharmaceuticals, indicating that antibiotics might be overanxiously considered in the previous studies on their behaviors in the WWTPs of China.     

Developmental exposure to diuron causes splenotoxicity in male Sprague-Dawley rat pups

This study investigated whether perinatal exposure to diuron [3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-1-dimethylurea] might exert adverse effects on rat lymphoid organs. Pregnant Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were exposed to diuron at 500, 750 or 1250 ppm in the diet from gestational days (GD) 12-21 and during lactation. At postnatal day (PND) 42, male pups were euthanized and thymus, spleen, mesenteric lymph node and femur were collected for histopathological analysis. Food consumption and body weight gain were significantly reduced in dams exposed to 1250 ppm during gestation period. Also, Diuron at 750 and 1250 ppm produced: (1) increased relative spleen weight associated histologically with severe congestion in red pulp, (2) enhanced extramedullary hematopoiesis and hemosiderosis as well as (3) depletion of lymphoid follicles in white pulp. Flow cytometric analysis revealed a significant reduction in B lymphocytes (CD45RA+) in male pups but T lymphocytes (CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+) were not markedly affected. Thus, data suggest that Diuron-induced maternal toxicity in dams exposed to high dose and perinatal exposure to this herbicide produced spleen toxicity as evidenced by a reduction in B lymphocyte number in male SD pups.     

Studies of potential sources that contributed to atmospheric mercury in Toronto,Canada

This study identified sources of mercury (Hg) in downtown Toronto, Canada by analyzing gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), mercury associated with particles with sizes less than 2.5 microns (PHg < 2.5), and gaseous oxidized inorganic mercury (GOIM), commonly referred to as reactive gaseous mercury (RGM), and air pollutants (CO, NO_x, O₃, PM_2.5, SO₂) concentrations between Dec 2003 and Nov 2004. The data were analyzed using Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) model, Principal Components Analysis (PCA), ratio analysis, back trajectories, and correlation analyses. The analyses suggest industrial sources (chemical production, metal production, sewage treatment), rather than coal combustion, were the major contributors to measured Hg levels. Overlap in source profiles for the Hg sources listed in the Canadian National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) and lack of source profiles for urban sources were the major limitations to positively identifying sources from the PMF and PCA factors. Correlation analyses revealed direct emissions were the sources of GOIM in spring, summer, and fall, and the occurrence of GEM oxidation by ozone in the summer. Elevated Hg events are attributed to emissions from urban sources near the sampling site, regional point sources, and photochemical processes involving ozone.
