Complex toxic effects of Cd2+, Zn2+, and acid rain on growth of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L)

Complex toxic effects of Cd2+, Zn2+, and acid rain on growth of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) were studied in a pot experiment by measurement of fresh weights of the plants, determination of surperoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and lipid peroxidation (MDA) in the plant organs, and observation of injury symptoms. The experimental results demonstrated that all treatments of Cd2+, Zn2+, and/or acid rain significantly decreased fresh weights of kidney bean and caused toxic effects on growth of the plants, especially higher amounts of Cd2+ and Zn2+ and higher acidity of acid rain. Combination of these three pollutant factors resulted in more serious toxic effects than any single pollutant and than combinations of any two pollutants. SOD, POD, and MDA in the plant organs changed with different pollution levels, but MDA content in the leaves showed the best relationship between the pollution levels and toxic effects.

Oxidative pretreatment accelerates TNT metabolism in soils

The combined effect of ultraviolet (UV)-ozonation (O₃) of aqueous ¹⁴C-TNT solutions followed by direct addition of the solutions to aerobic soils was examined as a method of disposal. The effect of TNT concentration was studied on both UV-O₃ and soil metabolism. The amount of TNT degraded by either process decreased as the concentration increased. UV-O₃ of a 1 ppm solution of TNT using a laboratory 450 W lamp for 10, 20, and 30 minutes resulted in substantial fragmentation of the ring and an increase in polarity of the resultant products. Soil metabolism, as measured by metabolic CO₂ evolution, increased as the time of prior UV-O₃ increased. A large amount of the ¹⁴C associated with ¹⁴C-TNT recovered from soil was in the non-extractable fraction. When a , adapted to metabolize -nitrophenol or picric acid as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen, was substituted for the soil phase, about 25% of the added ¹⁴C appeared as ¹⁴CO₂. 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene, 2,4,6-trinitrobenzaldehyde, 3,5-dinitrophenol, 3, 5-dinitrocatechol, 3,5-dinitrohydroquinone, and oxalic acid were identified as products of UV-O₃. Rapid destruction of TNT took place in a large 66 lamp unit, and the resultant distribution of ¹⁴C was similar to the results from the laboratory studies.     

利用人工降雨手段化汛期特大暴雨灾害为可利用水资源

利用美国1979-1995年NCEP/NCAR再分析及其它格点资料进行分析。发现汛期影响我国特大暴雨及洪涝灾害的，是一支存在于南，北两半球之间的非亚支“宏观气流系统”，它的气流运行具有一定的规律性，因而，对我国的特大暴雨和洪涝灾害，不但可以进行及时的监测和预报，而且可以在这支宏观气流系统的上游地带施行人工影响云雨工程，把空中丰沛水分降到需要雨水的地区，化洪涝灾害为宝贵的水资源。

Historical records of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon deposition in a shallow eutrophic lake: Impacts of sources and sedimentological conditions

Sediment core samples collected from Lake Chaohu were analyzed for 15 priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs)to assess the spatial and temporal distributions of the PAHs during lacustrine sedimentary processes and regional economic development.Assessing the PAH sedimentary records over an approximately 100-year time span,we identified two stages in the PAH inputs and sources(before the 1970 s and after the 1970s)in the eastern lake region near a village,whereas three stages(before the 1950 s,1950s–1990s and after the1990s)were identified in the western lake region near urban and industrial areas.Rapid increases in the PAH depositional fluxes occurred during the second stage due to increased human activities in the Lake Chaohu basin.The composition and isomeric ratios of the PAHs revealed that pyrolysis is the main source of PAHs in this lake.Strong positive relationships between PAH concentration and the total organic carbon concentration,sediment grain size( 4 μm),as well as the local population and Gross Domestic Product indicated that the sedimentary conditions impact the depositional characteristics of the PAHs;simultaneously,socioeconomic activities,such as energy consumption and the levels of urban industrialization and civilization,affect both the composition and abundance of the PAHs.

Thermal energy storage and thermodynamic properties of (E)-3-m-tolylbut-2-enoic acid as a medium temperature phase change material

Phase change materials (PCMs) that can store and release heat energy over the temperature range from 363 to 393 K are crucial for solar absorption cooling, and it is worthy to seek new solid-liquid PCMs candidates that melt and crystallize in this temperature range. In this paper, (E)-3-m-tolylbut-2-enoic acid (mTBEA) was applied as a PCM candidate. Its thermal energy storage properties and thermal stability were systematically investigated. The results showed that mTBEA melted at 382.9 ± 0.5 K and crystallized at about 364 K, with a melting enthalpy (Δ_fusH) of 138.4 ± 6.9 J g^?1 and showed good long-term cyclic stability and thermal stability. The supercooling of mTBEA was stabilized at about 20 K, indicating that the conservation condition of melted mTBEA could be simple. In addition, the melted mTBEA could release all the absorbed thermal energy upon crystallizing. Besides, mTBEA exhibited good thermal stability for it to be applied as PCM. Hence, mTBEA is a promising PCM candidate for solar absorption cooling. Furthermore, the heat capacity of mTBEA was measured by modulated temperature differential scanning calorimetry (MTDSC) over the temperature range from 198.15 to 431.15 K, and the molar thermodynamic functions, [H_T-H_298.15]_m and [S_T-S_298.15]_m, were calculated based on the fitted molar heat capacity data.
