The concentrations of total, inorganic and organic carbon in the surface sediment of the central part of the Venice lagoon (31-55 stations) during the month of June in 1987, 1993 and 1998 were recorded. In two stations: San Giuliano and Lido, samples were collected on a monthly basis for 1 year also in different periods. On an average, by considering the whole central lagoon, inorganic carbon (IC) and total carbon (TC) did not show significant changes. In contrast organic carbon (OC) had alternating trends showing a decrease from 1987 to 1993, due to the almost complete disappearance of huge macroalgal biomasses, and a marked increase from 1993 to 1998, because of the high sediment disturbance caused by the catching of the clam Tapes philippinarum Adams & Reeve which had colonised the sediment free of macrophytes. The carbon changes monitored in the two stations studied on a seasonal basis during different years not only confirmed such results, but also enhanced the effects of fishing activities at Lido station and those depending on the disappearance of macroalgae at S. Giuliano. Moreover, this paper underlines the importance of seagrass beds. In fact in the areas colonised by those plants the percentage of fine sediments and organic matter is on the increase, while erosive processes are contrasted. 相似文献

Long-term data on precipitation and runoff are essential to draw firm conclusions about the behavior and trends of hydrological catchments that may be influenced by land use and climate change. Here the longest continuous runoff records from small catchments (<1 km(2)) in Switzerland (and possibly worldwide) are reported. The history of the hydrological monitoring in the Sperbel- and Rappengraben (Emmental) is summarized, and inherent uncertainties in the data arising from the operation of the gauges are described. The runoff stations operated safely for more than 90% of the summer months when most of the major flood events occurred. Nevertheless, the absolute values of peak runoff during the largest flood events are subject to considerable uncertainty. The observed differences in average, base, and peak runoff can only partly be attributed to the substantial differences in forest coverage. This treasure trove of data can be used in various ways, exemplified here with an analysis of the generalized extreme value distributions of the two catchments. These distributions, and hence flood return periods, have varied greatly in the course of one century, influenced by the occurrence of single extreme events. The data will be made publicly available for the further analysis of the mechanisms governing the runoff behavior of small catchments, as well as for testing stochastic and deterministic models. 相似文献

Human-made structures are increasingly built in marine coastal habitats for a variety of purposes. Offshore oil and gas production platforms are among the largest examples. Yet, biological effects of these increasing density artificial substrata are under evaluated. The objective of our study is to investigate the possible role of offshore platforms in modifying the genetic composition of populations of natural rocky shores species. The serpulid Pomatoceros triqueter was used as a model, and genetic variation was assessed using a 419?bp fragment of the mtDNA COI gene in samples collected on eleven offshore gas platforms, on one coastal buoy on the sandy shore and in four sites located on natural rocky shores in the Adriatic Sea. Deep phylogenetic lineages were uncovered over all samples. Nucleotide diversity and mean number of pairwise differences among haplotypes were significantly smaller in offshore platform samples compared to rocky shores samples. No significant genetic structure was observed over all samples. We found direct evidence of lower genetic diversity on platforms confirming that, although artificial structures attract and support species typical of hard bottoms, they are not analogues of natural rocky habitats. 相似文献

Ten adult male loggerhead sea turtles, captured by trawlers or dip nets, were satellite-tracked from a neritic foraging ground in the Mediterranean in order to investigate adult spatio-temporal distribution and breeding migration. Five individuals migrated to potential breeding sites in Libya and one to Greece. The results complement previous studies and show that: (1) the Tunisian shelf may be more important for turtles from Libyan rookeries than previously thought; (2) male tracks corroborate a conservation hotspot previously identified for juveniles; (3) the north African coast represents a preferred migratory corridor, unless open sea routes are more direct; (4) adult males may exhibit high fidelity to relatively small areas, without evident seasonal differences; (5) adults home ranges were smaller and more neritic than juveniles frequenting the same area; (6) males may frequent multiple courtship areas; (7) the average remigration interval of males frequenting this region is longer than 1 year. 相似文献

Lower carbonyls and n-alkanals from C5 to C10 were measured from late autumn 2000 to summer 2001 in two urban areas in the Algerian territory: Algiers and Ouargla. They were collected on silica cartridges coated with dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) and pentafluorophenylhydrazine (PFPH), which were analysed by HPLC-UV and high-resolution GC-MS. respectively. The two methods were used in parallel samplings in a suburban Algiers site and provided consistent results for semi-volatile congeners, as differences in the concentration data did not exceed 21% on average for individual carbonyl levels ranging from 0.0 to 0.5-2.6 microg m(-3). Concentrations of formaldehyde up to 27 and 5 microg m(-3) were monitored during 10 h samplings in the daytime in Algiers and Ouargla, respectively; acetaldehyde reached values of 13 and 5 microg m(-3), whilst acetone was the most abundant ketone with peak levels of 14 and 4 microg m(-3), respectively. High night-time levels of lower carbonyls were also measured at both locations. Among the semi-volatile alkanals, the highest levels were observed in suburban Algiers for hexanal and nonanal (2.2 microg m(-3)) and in downtown Algiers for valeraldehyde (2.6 microg m(-3)), whilst in Ouargla only hexanal and nonanal levels within the C5-C10 fraction exceeded 1 microg m(-3). Moreover, benzaldehyde concentrations as high as 5 microg m(-3) were measured in the centre of Algiers. Algiers data are comparable with those found in photochemically polluted urban areas of Europe and the USA. Strong correlations between formaldehyde and acetaldehyde and between formaldehyde and benzaldehyde were observed; by contrast, acetone did not show any correlation with the lower aldehydes, suggesting the existence of carbonyl sources other than vehicular traffic. Diurnal variations of almost all carbonyls suggested that motor vehicles were the most important source in the winter, whereas photochemical production appeared to predominate during the summer. 相似文献

Monitoring Nitrogen Dioxide and its Effects on Asthmatic Patients: Two Different Strategies Compared
Massimiliano Panella Vania Tommasini Marco Binotti Lucio Palin Gianni Bona 《Environmental monitoring and assessment》2000,63(3):447-458
Objectives: To develop a `methodologyassessment' to evaluate the strengths and theweaknesses of two different epidemiological approachesand to identify the best suited monitoring strategy tomeasure the effects of `normal levels' of nitrogendioxide exposure on the health of an urban population.Methodology: all exposures to nitrogen dioxidewere determined with passive samplers, each samplerconsisting of 3 measuring Palmes tubes. In the firststudy the nitrogen dioxide exposure was assessed in 23school children (11 asthmatic and 12 non asthmatic).Children wore samplers for a week and parallelmeasurements were made in their kitchens, in bedroomsand outside their homes. The second study consisted ina case-control study where the relative risk ofhospital admission was calculated considering nitrogendioxide levels in a city of northern Italy. 110asthmatic patients were compared to a control group of 5322 people.Results: Personal sampler measurementshighlighted significant differences in exposure when nitrogen dioxide atmospheric levels were compared inasthmatic and healthy children (p<0.05). No otherparameters were significant in the two groups. Asignificant action of atmospheric nitrogen dioxide onhospital admission was demonstrated (p<0.01).Conclusions: Although a cause-effect relation assuch cannot be identified, the studies show a relationbetween the exposure to nitrogen dioxide and thepresence of adverse effects on people's health.However the `disadvantage' is for subjects withasthmatic pathologies, compared to the others. Tomanage this problem most effectively, a combinedapproach with the activation of specific personalmonitoring campaigns of the subjects with verifiedrisk seems necessary. This requires `reading' the dataresulting from most extensive and up to dateinformation systems, capable of a thorough controlboth of the living environment and of the clinicaloutcome of the whole population. 相似文献
