2014年10月中国东部持续重污染天气成因分析

2014年10月5─13日中国东部发生了大范围、长时间的(雾)霾及重污染天气. 采用AQI数据分析此次大气重污染过程的时、空演变特征,并应用NCEP(美国国家环境预报中心)再分析资料以及地面、小球探空数据,分析了主要天气型演变、边界层及上空的风场、气象条件特征,以研究此次秋季重污染天气的气象成因和形成过程. 结果表明:①华北、东北是此次污染最为严重的地区,其域内各城市持续数日的污染演变可分为AQI显著上升、持续高值、下降3个阶段. ②在AQI上升阶段(10月6—8日),受大陆高压控制,东部地区出现较弱地方风场和偏南风输送风场,风速在0～2 m/s,相对湿度在22%～86%,3 000 m逆温显著利于污染物积累. ③在持续污染阶段(10月8—11日),海上高压滞留,再加上台风“凤凰”北上阻挡大陆高压影响,使东部地区出现持续4 d的偏南风、偏东风弱风场,风速在1～4 m/s,相对湿度为57%～96%,造成严重污染. ④在AQI下降阶段(10月11—12日),后续大陆高压南下,前部冷锋利于污染物清除,风速达到6 m/s,是AQI降低的主要天气背景场. 因此,持续出现的稳定天气形势是导致此次中国东部重污染天气的主要气象原因.

不同河岸带修复策略对氮磷非点源污染的净化作用

选择北江的重要支流流溪河流域为研究对象,基于现有河岸带对非点源污染削减作用的模拟结果,采用情景分析法,预测不同河岸带修复策略对非点源污染的削减作用,使用效益-成本指数表征TN和TP削减率提高幅度与增加河岸带面积的关系,比较不同河岸带修复策略的效率.结果表明:河岸带对TN和TP的削减能力具有较大的空间差异性.各修复情景都在不同程度上提高了河岸带对TN和TP的削减率(TN:23.36%~30.72%;TP:27.19%~39.86%),河岸带增加总面积与削减率呈现对数增长关系(P<0.05).选择综合考虑了流域非点源负荷量以及河岸带状况的优先修复子流域进行河岸带修复时,效益-成本指数达最高为1.19%.     

输氧抽气技术在垃圾填埋场治理中的关键参数试验研究

输氧抽气技术是基于好氧降解原理对垃圾填埋场中固体废弃物实施原位处理的先进环保技术。采用该技术对垃圾填埋场中固体废弃物减量化研究,总结了技术应用中的关键参数:有效影响半径,最佳真空度等。结果表明抽气流量大小与影响半径密切相关,抽气影响半径建议取20~25 m,抽气系统最优负压为20 k Pa,同时在技术应用过程中应保证垃圾场表层覆盖层的密封性能,尽量减少空气的渗入。输氧抽气技术在垃圾场的成功实施为同类型场地治理提供工程技术参考。     

碳酸盐体系中pH对Cu2+诱导结晶过程的影响

在流化床中,以含Cu2+废水为处理对象,考察了碳酸盐体系中pH的改变对Cu2+诱导结晶过程的影响. 结果表明:当进水ρ(Cu2+)为200 mg/L、沉淀剂pH为10.2时,经回流系统拦截,微晶产率可降低0.5%~1.0%,Cu2+的去除率可达99.0%以上. 经XRD(X射线衍射)分析表明,结晶产物以碱式碳酸铜为主,晶型呈短杆状,尺寸较为均一;当沉淀剂pH升至12.2时,Cu2+的去除率降至95.0%,系统出水结晶产物晶型特征不明显,尺寸不均,XRD结果显示为氢氧化铜、碱式碳酸铜、碳酸钙等混合结晶产物,晶体衍射峰多存在宽化现象,表明高pH下结晶产物晶化程度较低.

陕北水蚀风蚀交错区小流域苔藓结皮的空间特征及其影响因子

生物结皮是旱区普遍存在的活性地被物,在生态系统中发挥重要的生态功能,研究其发育特征与形成机理是有效管理和利用该资源的基础。退耕还林（草）工程实施以来,黄土高原地区生物结皮大面积发育,但相比荒漠地区,相关的研究工作还较薄弱。生物结皮的发育具有过程的复杂性和空间的分异性,诸多荒漠地区的研究结果不能直接外推至黄土高原地区。鉴于此,论文选择黄土高原典型小流域,通过全面调查和测算分析,应用GIS 软件,探讨了生物结皮的空间特征及其影响因子。结果表明：①流域内藓类共有2 科8 属13 种,狭网真藓、真藓、尖叶对齿藓分布最广;②苔藓结皮占绝对优势,面积为4.18 km²,占流域面积的60.7%,主要分布在干扰少、侵蚀弱、水分好的梁峁坡或梁峁顶上;③土壤、植被、坡向均对苔藓结皮的发育有显著影响。同黄土地相比,沙地苔藓结皮的覆盖度高、呈连片分布。乔、灌植被下的生物结皮发育优于草本群落,植被盖度对苔藓结皮产生先促进后抑制的作用（拐点约在覆盖度30%处）。总体上,阴坡生物结皮的覆盖度、厚度均高于阳坡。     

The feasibility of concentrated rural settlement in a context of post‐disaster reconstruction: a study of China

There is growing appreciation of the use of concentrated rural settlement as an effective means of implementing infrastructure projects and helping to achieve sustainable development in rural areas. This occurs in China through the exchange of rural residential land for urban construction. However, this policy has not been effective under normal circumstances (called development‐driven conditions) as frequently farmers are reluctant to accept such an exchange. By contrast, in a time of disaster, such as after the 2008 earthquake in Sichuan Province, China, rural victims have accepted this policy of rural residential land exchange. Employing game theory, this paper identifies the reasons for the different outcomes and it contends that the implementation of concentrated rural settlement practice under disaster‐induced conditions is more effective than its introduction under development‐driven conditions. The results of the analysis indicate that, in China, concentrated rural settlement is feasible in a context of post‐disaster reconstruction.     

Does the metal content in soil around a pregnant woman’s home increase the risk of low birth weight for her infant?

Low birth weight (LBW) is associated with a number of maternal environmental exposures during pregnancy. This study explored the association between soil metal concentrations around the home where the mother lived during pregnancy and the outcome of LBW. We used a retrospective cohort of 9,920 mother–child pairs who were insured by Medicaid during pregnancy and lived in ten residential areas, where we conducted soil sampling. We used a grid that overlaid the residential areas and collected soil samples at the grid intersections. The soil was analyzed for the concentration of eight metals [arsenic (As), barium (Ba), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), and mercury (Hg)], and we then used Bayesian Kriging to estimate the concentration at the actual maternal addresses, since we had the GIS coordinates of the homes. We used generalized additive modeling, because the metal concentrations had nonlinear associations with LBW, to develop the best fitting multivariable model for estimating the risk of LBW. The final model showed significant associations for female infants, maternal smoking during pregnancy, non-white mothers, Cu, and As with LBW. The As variable was nonlinear in relation to LBW, and the association between higher concentrations of As with LBW was strong (p = 0.002). We identified a statistically significant association between soil concentrations of arsenic around the home of pregnant women and an increased risk of LBW for her infant.
