基于农业用地和地形约束的陇南山区适宜人口规模估算

陇南山区地形复杂,耕地不足,经济贫困,人口对资源环境的压力较大。研究适度人口容量对于地震灾后重建、缓解贫困以及保护长江上游的生态安全具有重要意义。以人均粮食和经济水平两个指标来估算温饱、宽裕和小康3个水平上的人口承载量,测度人口和农业资源的关系。并基于地形复杂度计算劳动用工及可抚养人口。结果表明:目前陇南10县(区)的人口在温饱生活水平下尚有超载。以小康生活为标准,适宜人口规模约为135万。经营现有的农耕地和林地需要100.81万劳动力,可抚养人口191.54万人,加上城镇人口总人口为231.03万。这个人口规模实现温饱有余而宽裕不足,难达小康目标。"人口-农业用地-劳动力"之间形成了一个怪圈,决定了陇南山区农村实现小康目标的艰巨性和复杂性。为此,陇南山区的灾后重建和区域可持续发展需要创新思路,多方并举。     

Using OpenMI and a Model MAP to Integrate WaterML2 and NetCDF Data Sources into Flood Modeling of Genoa,Italy

Extreme hydrometeorological events such as flash floods have caused considerable loss of life and damage to infrastructure over recent years. Flood events in the Mediterranean region between 1990 and 2006 caused over 4,500 fatalities and cost over €29 billion in damage, with Italy one of the worst affected countries. The Distributed Computing Infrastructure for Hydro‐Meteorology (DRIHM) project is a European initiative aiming at providing an open, fully integrated eScience environment for predicting, managing, and mitigating the risks related to such extreme weather phenomena. Incorporating both modeled and observational data sources, it enables seamless access to a set of computing resources with the objective of providing a collection of services for performing experiments with numerical models in meteorology, hydrology, and hydraulics. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how this flexible modeling architecture has been constructed using a set of standards including the NetCDF and WaterML2 file formats, in‐memory coupling with OpenMI, controlled vocabularies such as CF Standard Names, ISO19139 metadata, and a Model MAP (Metadata, Adaptors, Portability) gateway concept for preparing numerical models for standardized use. Hydraulic results, including the impact to buildings and hazards to people, are given for the use cases of the severe and fatal flash floods, which occurred in Genoa, Italy in November 2011 and October 2014.     

Application of SPARROW Modeling to Understanding Contaminant Fate and Transport from Uplands to Streams

Understanding spatial variability in contaminant fate and transport is critical to efficient regional water‐quality restoration. An approach to capitalize on previously calibrated spatially referenced regression (SPARROW) models to improve the understanding of contaminant fate and transport was developed and applied to the case of nitrogen in the 166,000 km² Chesapeake Bay watershed. A continuous function of four hydrogeologic, soil, and other landscape properties significant (α = 0.10) to nitrogen transport from uplands to streams was evaluated and compared among each of the more than 80,000 individual catchments (mean area, 2.1 km²) in the watershed. Budgets (including inputs, losses or net change in storage in uplands and stream corridors, and delivery to tidal waters) were also estimated for nitrogen applied to these catchments from selected upland sources. Most (81%) of such inputs are removed, retained, or otherwise processed in uplands rather than transported to surface waters. Combining SPARROW results with previous budget estimates suggests 55% of this processing is attributable to denitrification, 23% to crop or timber harvest, and 6% to volatilization. Remaining upland inputs represent a net annual increase in landscape storage in soils or biomass exceeding 10 kg per hectare in some areas. Such insights are important for planning watershed restoration and for improving future watershed models.     

利用计算流体力学模拟技术对某水解酸化池的改进

利用计算流体力学模拟技术,采用三维、稳态、k-ε紊流模型,结合多重参考系模型、弥散相模型及组分输运和化学反应模型,对江苏某污水处理厂水解酸化池进行了模拟。结果表明：水解酸化池内流速分布很不均匀;池内存在大片回流区域以及流速几乎为零的区域,区域总体积占池容的50%以上;平均水力停留时间约为1 480 s,远达不到设计值。结合模拟结果,提出了改进方案。改进后的模拟结果表明：水解酸化池内水流流速分布均匀性大大提高;大片的回流区域消失,速度几乎为零的区域面积也大大减小;水解酸化池的空间得到充分利用,水下推进器的作用也更加明显;平均水力停留时间约为15 340 s,和设计值十分接近。但是仍存在一些不足：水流流速分布的均匀性仍存在一定缺陷;只考虑了单相流,没有考虑池中污泥的作用。     

Characterizing Coral Condition Using Estimates of Three-dimensional Colony Surface Area

Coral reefs provide shoreline protection, biological diversity, fishery harvests, and tourism, all values that stem from the physically-complex coral infrastructure. Stony corals (scleractinians) construct and maintain the reef through deposition of calcium carbonate. Therefore, assessment of coral reefs requires at least some measurement endpoints that reflect the biological and physical condition of stony corals. Most monitoring programs portray coral quantity as live coral cover, which is the two-dimensional proportion of coral surface to sea floor viewed from above (planar view). The absence of the third dimension, however, limits our ability to characterize coral reef value, physiology, health and sustainability. A three-dimensional (3D) approach more realistically characterizes coral structure available as community habitat and, when combined with estimates of live coral tissue, quantifies the amount of living coral available for photosynthesis, growth and reproduction. A rapid coral survey procedure that coupled 3D coral quantification with more traditional survey measurements was developed and tested in the field. The survey procedure relied on only three underwater observations – species identification, colony size, and proportion of live tissue – made on each colony in the transect. These observations generated a variety of metrics, including several based on 3D colony surface area, that are relevant to reef management.

How does agricultural intensification modulate changes in plant community composition?

Agricultural intensification, at local and landscape scales, has caused a decrease in plant diversity and changes in species composition in cereal fields. To better understand the role of landscape complexity and farming systems in shaping plant assemblages, it is of interest to focus on functional traits rather than on floristic composition, which may help to highlight trends in vegetation patterns. We analysed the relative abundance of various functional attributes (different life forms, growth forms, wind-pollinated species and wind-dispersed species) at three contrasted field positions (boundary, edge and centre) of 29 organic and 29 conventional cereal fields distributed in 15 agrarian localities of NE Spain. Agricultural intensification affected the biological attributes of the vegetation in dryland Mediterranean cereal fields; local factors (farming system and position) had a more prominent role in affecting plant functional composition than the surrounding landscape. Local factors were important for life form distribution, growth form and pollination type, whereas landscape complexity mainly affected the proportion of wind-dispersed species. Therefore, depending on the objective of the study, it is important to select functional attributes sensitive to the different scales of agricultural intensification, especially because landscape complexity and land-use intensity are commonly related.

鼓泡和鼓泡-搅拌SBR好氧污泥颗粒化能耗分析

在高径比20的鼓泡SBR和高径比1.2的鼓泡-搅拌SBR反应器中,考察了好氧污泥颗粒化过程中,污泥粒径、分形维数、微生物特性的变化.建立流体动力学模型,对鼓泡和鼓泡-搅拌反应器中好氧颗粒污泥形成前后的能耗进行对比分析,从水力学角度分析2个反应器污泥特性出现差异的原因.结果表明,鼓泡反应器内在表观气速2.0cm/s条件下形成了均值粒径0.604mm,平均沉降速度（24±5.8） m/h,SVI 36.33mL/g,MLSS维持在4500mg/L左右,表面光滑的好氧颗粒污泥.鼓泡-搅拌反应器在搅拌速度300r/min、表观气速1.05cm/s的条件下,成功培养以丝状菌为骨架的好氧颗粒污泥,均值粒径可达1.123mm,污泥的平均沉降速度为（19.6±5.1） m/h,SVI为41.33mL/g,MLSS维持在3300mg/L左右.好氧颗粒污泥形成前后的能耗进行对比分析发现：好氧颗粒污泥培养初期,鼓泡-搅拌反应器因搅拌桨的加入,获得的湍动能远大于鼓泡反应器,约为100倍左右;而好氧颗粒形成之后,鼓泡反应器中上部位置的湍动能明显增加,且湍动能的大小大于鼓泡-搅拌反应器.相比较而言,鼓泡反应器相对节约能量.
