浙闽沿岸海域总溶解态无机锑的分布及影响因素研究

作为一种具有潜在致癌性的有毒稀有元素,锑已经广泛地存在于水体中并显现出较为严重的环境问题,引起科学界的广泛关注.利用氢化物发生原子荧光光谱法测定2008年5月浙闽沿岸海域水样中总溶解态无机锑(TDISb)的含量.结果表明,浙闽沿岸海域表、底层TDISb浓度的变化范围分别是0.68~5.64 nmol·L-1和0.71~5.25 nmol·L-1,平均含量分别为2.25、1.79 nmol·L-1,低于我国地表水环境质量标准和世界卫生组织规定的饮用水水质标准(约41.08 nmol·L-1).总溶解态无机锑表现出由沿岸向中央海区递减、表层高于底层的分布特征.影响浙闽沿岸海域溶解态无机锑分布的主要因素有水团混合,生物活动及悬浮颗粒物吸附解吸过程等.     

环境因素对土壤中几种典型四环素抗性基因形成的影响

兽用四环素在养殖业中的大量使用导致了日益严重的环境污染,其诱导生成的抗性基因更可能产生比其自身污染更大的环境危害.本研究探讨了环境因素对几种典型四环素抗性基因(tetA、tetC)形成的影响,结果表明,温度、光照及pH能够对土壤中四环素抗性基因的形成产生显著的影响,在较为合适的温度条件(25℃)、光照条件(500 lx)和pH(7.5)条件下,土壤中四环素耐药菌菌落数和四环素抗性基因总含量均处于较高的水平,并多显著高于其他环境条件下的诱导水平(P<0.05),而高温、强光照及较高的pH条件能够有效抑制土壤中四环素抗性基因的形成,抑制的主要途径可能包括影响土壤中四环素的残留水平或直接影响抗性基因的生成,同时研究也发现这些不利的环境条件也抑制了土壤中四环素耐药菌的生长.进一步分析在两种不同通气处理条件下土壤中所诱导产生的四环素抗性基因含量水平与土壤中四环素耐药菌数量之间的关系,发现在两种条件下四环素抗性基因含量水平与土壤中四环素耐药菌数量之间存在着较为显著的正相关关系(R2好氧=0.7872,n=30;R2缺氧=0.8841,n=21),土壤中四环素耐药菌的生长对四环素抗性基因的形成也起到了关键性作用.     

陕北地区煤炭开采等人类活动对河道径流影响的定量识别

陕北地区水资源严重短缺,定量分析窟野河流域各因素对河道径流的影响程度,对干旱半干旱地区的资源开发具有重要意义.该文首先分析了窟野河径流以及流域内降雨、气温、水保措施、用水量和煤炭开采量等因素的变化趋势;其次按照1961—1979年、1980—1998年、1999—2010年以及1961—2010年等4个时期,采用逐步回归法分别确定其显著的影响因素,求出各时期的径流相关方程,其中1961—2010年间的主要影响因素为降雨量、气温、水保措施和煤炭开采量;最后定量计算了1980—1998年和1999—2010年相对于基准期1961—1979年各因素造成的减水量,其中水保措施的减水量由65%减少到了47%,煤炭开采却增加到了19%.结果表明,采用逐步回归分析法计算的窟野河1961—2010年径流模拟值与实测值很接近,该方法可以在中国北方干旱半干旱地区推广.     

全氟化合物对表层沉积物中细菌群落结构的影响

选择集中分布氟化工相关企业的山东省小清河水系,自上游至莱州湾入海口采集10个表层沉积物样点(XQ1~XQ10),采用高效液相色谱/质谱联用(HPLC/MS-MS)监测全氟化合物(perfluoroalkyl substances,PFASs),分析影响细菌群落结构的基础环境因子,提取细菌DNA并运用第二代Illumina Mi Seq测序技术分析其细菌群落结构.结果表明,在小清河流域沉积物中12种PFASs均有不同程度检出,并以全氟辛酸(PFOA)为主,生产企业集中区下游样点XQ5的PFOA浓度在4、7月分别高达456.2 ng·g-1和748.7 ng·g-1.PFOA是小清河4月影响微生物群落结构的关键因子,与群落丰富度和均匀度呈显著负相关;硫杆菌属(Thiobacillus)在低浓度PFOA条件下数量较少,但在高浓度PFOA下数量较高且成为优势菌种,初步证明硫杆菌属是PFOA污染响应的敏感物种,有作为指示微生物的潜质;PFOA在浓度较低时(100 ng·g-1)对微生物群落结构的影响不显著.     

Measurements and simulation of forest leaf area index and net primary productivity in Northern China

Large scale process-based modeling is a useful approach to estimate distributions of global net primary productivity (NPP). In this paper, in order to validate an existing NPP model with observed data at site level, field experiments were conducted at three sites in northern China. One site is located in Qilian Mountain in Gansu Province, and the other two sites are in Changbaishan Natural Reserve and Dunhua County in Jilin Province. Detailed field experiments are discussed and field data are used to validate the simulated NPP. Remotely sensed images including Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+, 30 m spatial resolution in visible and near infrared bands) and Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER, 15m spatial resolution in visible and near infrared bands) are used to derive maps of land cover, leaf area index, and biomass. Based on these maps, field measured data, soil texture and daily meteorological data, NPP of these sites are simulated for year 2001 with the boreal ecosystem productivity simulator (BEPS). The NPP in these sites ranges from 80 to 800 gCm(-2)a(-1). The observed NPP agrees well with the modeled NPP. This study suggests that BEPS can be used to estimate NPP in northern China if remotely sensed images of high spatial resolution are available.     

Channel and Perennial Flow Initiation in Headwater Streams: Management Implications of Variability in Source-Area Size

Despite increasing attention to management of headwater streams as sources of water, sediment, and wood to downstream rivers, the extent of headwater channels and perennial flow remain poorly known and inaccurately depicted on topographic maps and in digital hydrographic data. This study reports field mapping of channel head and perennial flow initiation locations in forested landscapes underlain by sandstone and basalt lithologies in Washington State, USA. Contributing source areas were delineated for each feature using a digital elevation model (DEM) as well as a Global Positioning System device in the field. Systematic source area–slope relationships described in other landscapes were not evident for channel heads in either lithology. In addition, substantial variability in DEM-derived source area sizes relative to field-delineated source areas indicates that in this area, identification of an area–slope relationship, should one even exist, would be difficult. However, channel heads and stream heads, here defined as the start of perennial flow, appear to be co-located within both of the lithologies, which together with lateral expansion and contraction of surface water around channel heads on a seasonal cycle in the basalt lithology, suggest a controlling influence of bedrock springs for that location. While management strategies for determining locations of channel heads and perennial flow initiation in comparable areas could assign standard source area sizes based on limited field data collection within that landscape, field-mapped source areas that support perennial flow are much smaller than recognized by current Washington State regulations.

Safety in shipping: the human element

INTRODUCTION: There are numerous diverse papers that have addressed issues within maritime safety; to date there has been no comprehensive review of this literature to aggregate the causal factors within accidents in shipping and surmise current knowledge. METHODS: This paper reviewed the literature on safety in three key areas: common themes of accidents, the influence of human error, and interventions to make shipping safer. The review included 20 studies of seafaring across the following areas: fatigue, stress, health, situation awareness, teamwork, decision-making, communication, automation, and safety culture. RESULTS: The review identifies the relative contributions of individual and organizational factors in shipping accidents, and also presents the methodological issues with previous research. CONCLUSIONS: The paper concludes that monitoring and modifying the human factors issues presented in this paper could contribute to maritime safety performance. IMPACT ON INDUSTRY: This review illustrates which human factors issues are prevalent in incidents therefore this gives shipping practitioners a focus for interventions.
