1998~2016中国八大经济区植被覆盖对PM2.5浓度时空分布的影响

目前很少有PM_2.5污染与植被覆盖的相关性深入研究,尝试对此进行补充.基于1998~2016年的PM_2.5和归一化植被指数（NDVI）的栅格数据,以中国内地八大经济区为研究对象,对NDVI值进行3个等级划分（低植被覆盖区、中植被覆盖区和高植被覆盖区）,并计算相应等级的PM_2.5污染浓度.在此基础上,从NDVI的景观尺度和类型尺度分析PM_2.5污染的时空特征,然后利用面板数据模型定量化NDVI景观格局指数对PM_2.5的影响.结果表明：①北部沿海、东部沿海、南部沿海、长江中游和东北经济区在植被覆盖相对较低的区域,PM_2.5污染较严重;而黄河中游、西南地区及大西北经济区则在植被覆盖相对较低的区域表现出较轻的PM_2.5污染;②大部分区域的PM_2.5随时间变化呈显著上升趋势;③PM_2.5与NDVI景观格局指数相关性显著（P<0.05）的区域相对较少;④景观形状指数（LSI）、斑块面积比（PLAND）、斑块数量（NP）、最大斑块占景观面积比（LPI）和聚集度指标（AI）指数对PM_2.5的影响都表现出明显的空间异质性.

黄土高原中部麻栎宽度年表的气候响应特征初探

黄土高原是世界上水土流失最严重和生态环境最脆弱的地区之一,由于人类活动的日益频繁,森林面积急剧缩小,现有林地多为人为破坏后形成的天然次生林。目前很难在该区找到适合树轮气候学研究的老龄针叶树种,在此背景下,寻找适合开展树轮气候学研究的替代树种尤为重要。本研究以黄土高原中部桥山林区的老龄麻栎林为研究对象,为该区建立了近一百多年的标准年表（1891—2016）和差值年表（1884—2016）,评估其树轮气候学研究潜力。相关计算表明,麻栎差值年表与当年3—7月降水量相关最高（r=0.58,p＜0.001）,几乎达到了可以重建的水平。该年表还与陕西中北部旱涝指数和黄土高原西部树轮降水重建序列显著相关,共同反映了区域降水变化历史。空间相关分析也进一步说明了桥山麻栎差值年表对区域降水量变化具有较强代表性。本文首次利用黄土高原中部阔叶树种开展树轮气候学研究,发现了麻栎树轮宽度年表具有记录过去降水变化的巨大潜力。     

SO2对Mn-Cu-Ce/TiO2低温选择催化还原NO的影响

研究了SO2对Mn-Cu-Ce/TiO2选择催化还原 NO 的影响,并采用傅立叶变换红外光谱、x射线衍射光谱及暂态响应技术对Mn-Cu-Ce/TiO2催化剂的SO2中毒机理进行了探讨.结果表明,SO2 可强吸附在Mn-Cu-Ce/TiO2表面的 CuO 活性位上.并生成 CuSO4,由于 CuSO4 在低温时对SCR 反应有抑制作用,因而,催化剂的活性下降;暂态响应实验结果表明,Mn-Cu-Ce/TiO2催化剂上的SCR反应主要遵循 Langmuir-Hinshelwood机理.通过对催化剂进行硫酸化或 NO 预吸附,可以消除SO2对 Mn-Cu-Ce/TiO2的毒害作用.     

温州沿海互花米草变迁及其与滩涂开发响应

利用TM数据比较了1993年、2000年和2003年温州沿海互花米草的面积变化,以灵昆岛为例,研究了互花米草引种、繁殖和扩散的特征,并且利用样地和样线对比互花米草与滩涂发育、围垦造陆、海水池塘养殖的相互响应关系.结果显示,温州滩涂互花米草1993～2003年间总面积增加231.99 hm2;互花米草在温州没有形成成熟种子,自然繁殖以根茎为主;在灵昆岛淤长型滩涂上,1993～2003期间互花米草与围垦海堤和海水养殖池塘呈现正响应关系,滩涂淤长速率远大于互花米草,为后者在潮间带中下部扩散提供条件.互花米草对滩涂潮上带的促淤作用明显,因而有利于海水池塘养殖规模扩大,也有利于围海造陆工程.     

山仔水库富营养化动态研究

以山仔水库库区水体为研究对象,通过测定水体透明度、叶绿素、总磷含量,应用卡尔森TSI营养指数法和层次分析法,并结合往年监测数据对山仔水库营养化程度进行分析,此外还运用Arc／Info的克里格插值法进行富营养化空间格局分析,最后提出防治对策。分析结果表明：近年来水库富营养化程度不断上升,随季节和降雨的变化出现较大的波动,在空间分布上也出现较大的变化。     

基于异质人群响应特征的交通噪声暴露评估研究

考虑异质人群不同声功能需求和时空分布,对异质人群交通噪声暴露特征进行评估。通过集记人口高斯分解和噪声预测,获取特征人群分布数据和交通噪声数据;基于特征人群年龄和声功能需求,标定各年龄段人群噪声响应函数并进行归一化处理,构建异质人群噪声响应曲线;构建交通噪声暴露评估模型,结合获取数据及噪声响应曲线进行噪声暴露评估。结果表明,3类声功能区中人群噪声暴露与年龄变量均呈现类抛物线趋势,40岁左右人群暴露影响较儿童和老人低59.9%左右。人均噪声暴露在夜间明显偏高,尤其在声功能需求较高的第1类声功能区,其人均噪声超标值比昼间高7 d B。特征人群的空间分布对噪声暴露影响显著,工作时段学校区域适学人群集中,其总噪声暴露风险为同等状况住宅区的1.2倍。综合考虑人群特征和时空分布等因素,可更科学地进行区域交通噪声污染评估。     

Correlates of bushmeat in markets and depletion of wildlife

We used data on number of carcasses of wildlife species sold in 79 bushmeat markets in a region of Nigeria and Cameroon to assess whether species composition of a market could be explained by anthropogenic pressures and environmental variables around each market. More than 45 mammal species from 9 orders were traded across all markets; mostly ungulates and rodents. For each market, we determined median body mass, species diversity (game diversity), and taxa that were principal contributors to the total number of carcasses for sale (game dominance). Human population density in surrounding areas was significantly and negatively related to the percentage ungulates and primates sold in markets and significantly and positively related to the proportion of rodents. The proportion of carnivores sold was higher in markets with high human population densities. Proportion of small‐bodied mammals (<1 kg) sold in markets increased as human population density increased, but proportion of large‐bodied mammals (>10 kg) decreased as human population density increased. We calculated an index of game depletion (GDI) for each market from the sum of the total number of carcasses traded per annum and species, weighted by the intrinsic rate of natural increase (r_max) of each species, divided by individuals traded in a market. The GDI of a market increased as the proportion of fast‐reproducing species (highest r_max) increased and as the representation of species with lowest r_max (slow‐reproducing) decreased. The best explanatory factor for a market's GDI was anthropogenic pressure—road density, human settlements with >3000 inhabitants, and nonforest vegetation. High and low GDI were significantly differentiated by human density and human settlements with >3000 inhabitants. Our results provided empirical evidence that human activity is correlated with more depleted bushmeat faunas and can be used as a proxy to determine areas in need of conservation action.     

Responses to natural and man-made hazards in Borno, Northeast Nigeria

This is a study of the responses of the people of eastern Borno to the twin hazards of drought and of an irrigation project stranded by the recent low level of Lake Chad. The environmental awareness of the people has been much influenced by access to information, particularly radio. There was a perceptual dissonance; drought is discerned as a natural act of God, but lake recession is seen as man-made. There is also a gap between responses perceived as appropriate and actual responses consequent on the constraints imposed by the process of modernization, notably the introduction of the South Chad Irrigation Project (SOP). Traditional response mechanisms involving the norm of reciprocity, the use of community resources, agricultural adaptations and sharing have become relatively insignificant in Borno. These are being replaced by emigration, lake floor cultivation and household diversification     

Characterization of water-in-crude oil emulsions in oil spill response

The formation of water-in-crude oil emulsions occurs when crude oils are spired into sea. The water-in-crude oil emulsions significantly change the properties of the spilled crude oils and in turn influence the choices made relating to oil spill countermeasures. The water-in-crude oil emulsions were characterized using various techniques in this study. The environmental scanning dectron microscopy observation of water droplets in the emulsions is also presented. It is a powerful tool in emulsion observations.
