夏季东海和南黄海一氧化碳的浓度分布、海-气通量和微生物消耗研究

于2013年7月对东海和南黄海海水中CO的浓度分布、时空变化、海-气通量和表层海水中CO微生物消耗进行了研究.夏季东海和南黄海大气中CO的体积分数范围为68×10-9~448×10-9,平均值为117×10-9(SD=68×10-9,n=36),呈现出近岸高、远海低的特点.夏季东海和南黄海表层海水中CO的浓度范围为0.23~7.10 nmol·L-1,平均值为2.49 nmol·L-1(SD=2.11,n=36),CO的浓度受太阳辐射影响明显;不同站位CO浓度的垂直分布特征基本相同,CO浓度最大值一般出现在表层,随深度增加CO浓度迅速减小.夏季东海和南黄海海水中CO浓度具有明显的周日变化,最大值是最小值的6~40倍.各层最大值基本出现在中午,最小值基本上出现在凌晨前后.CO明显的周日变化特征进一步证明海水中CO主要由光化学产生.调查期间东海和南黄海表层海水中CO相比大气处于过饱和状态,过饱和系数变化范围为1.99~99.18,平均值为29.36(SD=24.42,n=29),表明调查海域是大气中CO的源.调查期间CO的海-气通量变化范围为0.37~44.84μmol·(m2·d)-1,平均值为12.73μmol·(m2·d)-1(SD=11.40,n=29).调查海域CO的微生物消耗培养实验中,CO的浓度随时间增长呈指数降低,消耗过程符合一级反应的特点,微生物消耗速率常数KCO范围为0.12~1.45 h-1,平均值为0.47 h-1(SD=0.55,n=5),微生物消耗速率与盐度之间有一定的相关性.     

基于化学与生物复合指标的流域水生态系统健康评价——以滇池为例

水生态系统在人类社会的发展过程中发挥着至关重要的作用,由于人类活动的干扰,水生态系统的健康状况受到严重威胁.因此,本研究在对滇池流域水生态系统状况深入调查研究的基础上,根据水质状态和生态特性,利用层次分析法构建以化学完整性和生物完整性为标准的滇池流域水生态系统健康评估指标体系,计算各样点健康评价指标,综合评价滇池流域水生态系统健康状态.结果表明:滇池全流域水生态系统整体健康状态处于中下水平,流域上游区域健康等级多为良好,流域中游区域健康等级多为一般,流域下游区域健康等级多为一般和极差;滇池湖体健康等级则多为一般和差,尤以滇池北部(草海)健康状况较差;滇池流域河流和水库的健康状态整体比滇池湖泊的健康状态好,河流和水库的健康状态差异性不显著;生物状况是滇池流域水生态系统健康状态较差的主要限制性因素.     

辽河流域与英国中部河湖水体中溶解有机质的荧光特性

运用三维荧光光谱技术对辽河流域和英国中部水体中溶解有机质(DOM)的荧光光谱特性进行了分析.结果表明,辽河流域各研究水体中DOM包含4种荧光组分,即类色氨酸、类酪氨酸、可见光区和紫外光区类腐殖质,通过对荧光特性定量指标的分析可知,辽河流域各研究断面水体中类腐殖质物质内源作用大于陆源,DOM具有较强的新近自生源,各河流水体中DOM腐殖化程度顺序为:浑河中游海城河中游蒲河下游太子河下游.相比之下,英国河湖中,除了River Tame含有以上4种荧光组分外,其它水体中均没有发现类酪氨酸荧光物质,甚至在River Tern中仅含有类腐殖质荧光物质,河湖中DOM含有较少的新近自生源组分,以陆源影响为主.另外,辽河流域水体中类蛋白与类腐殖质荧光峰强度比值大于英国各河流水体的平均值.由此可以推断,辽河流域各研究断面大量污染物的输入,是造成其严重内源污染的主要原因,从而使水体中DOM含量增加,英国各河流断面其DOM主要来自于水体本身存在的大量微生物和浮游植物的代谢活动以及土壤有机质经雨水的冲刷流入水体的贡献.     

伊犁盆地昭苏黄土不同粒径和相态稀土元素特征及其物源指示意义

为了探讨伊犁盆地风成沉积物质来源特征,对伊犁地区昭苏黄土剖面代表性样品各个 粒级全岩、酸溶组分和残渣组分中的稀土元素进行了分析。结果表明,各个粒级组分全岩样品 的稀土总量（ΣREE）的变化范围为114.61~178.37 μg·g?1,剖面中各个粒级组分稀土球粒陨石标 准化配分模式呈轻稀土富集,存在明显的Eu 负异常,Ce 无明显异常。各个粒级组分酸溶残渣 稀土特征与上述全岩特征类似。酸溶组分稀土的上部大陆地壳标准化呈现稳定的中稀土富集。 随着各组分粒级变粗,酸溶组分稀土占全岩比例呈现先降低后升高的趋势,即从<2 μm 组分到 16 ~32 μm 组分比例渐次降低,而后从16 ~32 μm 组分到>63 μm 渐次升高,这主要反映了以西风 为代表的远源输送体系和以近地面风为代表的近源输送体系下两种来源的碎屑碳酸盐稀土的混 合。本文不同粒径和赋存形态下稀土元素的特征表明了利用风成沉积物稀土元素反映源区物质 特征存在一定复杂性。     

隔河岩水库二氧化碳通量时空变化及影响因素

随着气候变化研究的深入,大型河流拦截工程对水域碳循环及温室气体交换的影响引起越来越多的关注.为了评估河流拦截工程对水域生态系统碳循环和二氧化碳交换通量时空分布模式的影响,选择清江隔河岩水库作为典型案例,采用在线分析仪与浮箱相结合的方法,在2015年3月至2016年2月期间开展了完整水文年连续观测实验,获取了水库坝前、上游、支流、消落带与库湾等典型区域二氧化碳通量数据.数据分析结果表明隔河岩水库水气界面二氧化碳平均通量为(55.691 8±66.332 9)mg·(m2·h)-1,呈现年内冬季高其他季节低的时间变化规律,空间上则表现为水库消落带坝前较低、典型库湾区域较高的分布格局.作为水库背景的库尾断面渔峡口区域二氧化碳通量季节变化非常稳定,在大部分时间内反而高于坝前和消落带断面的二氧化碳通量.数据分析表明二氧化碳通量时空分布格局受到水温、pH值和水体碳浓度的显著影响,但其相关程度受到季节和蓄水的双重影响.     

太湖上游城市宜兴城区主干道路径流污染特征解析

通过监测2015年8月—2016年9月7场典型降雨事件,系统分析太湖上游城市宜兴城区3个不同功能区(环科园、新城区和老城区)主干道路径流污染特征.研究表明:宜兴市城区主干道路径流浊度、COD、TN、NH_3-N、TP浓度分别为(77.2±66.9)NTU、(97.2±79.7)、(3.0±1.9)、(0.93±0.59)和(0.35±0.36)mg·L~(-1).COD和TN超出地表水环境Ⅴ类标准,是该地区径流特征污染物.降雨过程中污染物浓度整体呈下降趋势,伴随有不同程度的波动,主要受地表残留污染物及降雨强度的影响.3个区域TN浓度差异不大,且主要以溶解态存在(60%);环科园、新城区TP浓度差异不大,且主要以颗粒态存在(70%);然而,受居民生活活动的影响,老城区TP主要以溶解态存在(60%).此外,受交通及道路坡度影响,新城区道路径流浊度和COD污染最为严重.不同降雨事件径流污染物浓度变化较大,主要受干期长度和降雨强度的影响.干期长度越长、降雨强度越小,污染物累积量及可冲刷量越大.因此,加强控制宜兴市道路初期径流、路面颗粒物、径流颗粒物和TN以及老城区TP,对保护径流主要受纳水体南溪水系及太湖水体具有重要意义.     

长江流域冬季农业主要作物的耕地竞争机制及案例研究

长江流域是世界最大的油菜籽生产带，增加油菜籽种植面积和产量是提高我国油料供给能力的重要方面。在该区域，油菜籽和小麦是最主要的冬季农作物，也是具备耕地竞争关系的2种主要作物。在对长江流域这两种作物的耕地竞争机制进行理论分析的基础上，系统阐述了耕地竞争力各影响因素之间的内在联系；根据实地调查的数据与结果，对油菜籽和冬小麦的耕地竞争关系进行深入分析。研究结果显示：油菜籽耕地竞争力的影响因素主要有单产、收购价格、机械化水平、劳动力价格及国家政策；稳定油菜籽收购价格是提高油菜籽耕地竞争力的关键；随着农村劳动力成本的提高，油菜籽生产的机械化水平成为影响种植效益的重要因素；国家补贴的影响作用不大。另外，结论也表明长江流域存在很大的油菜籽生产潜力。     

Management Decentralization and Montane Forest Conditions in Tanzania

Abstract: We examined how differences in local forest‐management institutions relate to disparate anthropogenic forest disturbance and forest conditions among three neighboring montane forests in Tanzania under centralized, comanaged, or communal management. Institutional differences have been shaped by decentralization reforms. We conducted semistructured interviews with members of forest management committees, local government, and village households and measured anthropogenic disturbance, tree structure, and species composition in forest plots. We assessed differences in governance system components of local institutions, including land tenure, decision‐making autonomy by forest users, and official and de facto processes of rule formation, monitoring, and enforcement among the three management strategies. We also assessed differences in frequencies of prohibited logging and subsistence pole cutting, and measures of forest condition. An adjacent research forest served as an ecological reference for comparison of forest conditions. Governance was similar for comanaged and centralized management, whereas communal managers had greater tenure security and decision‐making autonomy over the use and management of their forest. There was significantly less illegal logging in the communal forest, but subsistence pole cutting was common across all management strategies. The comanaged forest was most disturbed by recent logging and pole cutting, as were peripheral areas of the larger centralized forest. This manifested in more degraded indicators of forest conditions (lower mean tree size, basal area, density of trees ≥ 90 cm dbh, and aboveground biomass and higher overall stem density). Greater tenure security and institutional autonomy of the communal strategy contributed to more effective management, less illegal logging, and maintenance of good forest conditions, but generating livelihood benefits was a challenge for both decentralized strategies. Our results underscore the importance of well‐designed institutional arrangements in forest management and illustrate mechanisms for improved forest governance and conservation in the context of Tanzanian decentralization reforms.     

SIMULATION AND DECISIONMAKING: THE PLATTE RIVER BASIN IN NEBRASKA1

Substantial conflict exists over water management and allocation in the Platte River Basin of Nebraska. An interdisciplinary computer simulation model, representing the water quantity, water quality, environmental, and economic dimensions of the conflict, was developed in order to analyze the tradeoffs among allocation scenarios. Most importantly, decisionmakers and interest groups were involved in model development. Simulation results for a base case and two scenarios are presented. One scenario favors protection of instream flow for wildlife; the other favors water diversions for agriculture. Impacts of the instream flow scenario, as measured by the amount of land irrigated, groundwater levels, the amount of wildlife habitat for cranes and catfish, and net agricultural benefits did not differ greatly from those of the base case. However, impacts of the diversion scenario were substantial. On the negative side, instream flows and wildlife habitat declined an average of 39 percent; while, on the positive side, groundwater levels and net agricultural benefits each increased 6 percent. The modeling process was successful insofar as it promoted an understanding among the highly diverse interest groups of the systems nature of the Basin. One agreement on a water diversion schedule among three of the parties has been reached, partly as a result of this process. More comprehensive compromises have not yet been forged. Our experience, however, indicates that modeling success at the policymaking level depends more on the extent to which the policymakers understand the model than it does on model sophistication.     

IDENTIFICATION OF SOLUTE LOADING SOURCES TO A SURFACE STREAM1

ABSTRACT: A study was performed to identify sources of solute loading to the Dirty Devil River and its major tributaries, in southeastern Utah. A primary goal was to determine the contribution of gypsum dissolution to total dissolved solids concentration, and its potential increase in the future if salinity control measures are instituted. Synoptic field data were collected during the low flow period in October 1983. Data were analyzed using the geochemistry models WATEQF and BALANCE to postulate mineral reactions leading to solute loading. Three known sources of solute loading, involving two different geochemical mechanisms, were clearly discernable. Two additional areas of possible gypsum dissolution were located.
