不同干扰强度对滩涂围垦区土壤颗粒组成的时空分异特征的影响

滩涂是陆地与海洋间重要的生态交错带以及生态系统之一,随着沿海地区经济的发展,滩涂围垦成为缓解区域土地利用压力的重要途径之一。论文通过对不同围垦年限以及不同人类干扰强度下土壤粒径分布（Particle Size Distribution）的时空差异研究,比较了自然演变和人类活动双重影响下,垦区环境的变化过程及影响因素。结果表明：1）在60 a的围垦过程中,在强烈、中度和无人类干扰强度下,土壤粒径分布均表现出在脱盐过程中随围垦年限增加而砂粒减少、粉粒和粘粒增加的过程,脱盐后砂粒的年均下降率可达0.72%;2）在无干扰强度下,土壤粒径分布反映出滩涂围垦和脱离海水影响的自然过程,而强烈和中度干扰强度则在此基础上反映出人为和自然干扰的综合效果;3）耕种方式、时间以及土壤侵蚀等因素均会对土壤粒径分布的变化强度造成影响而表现出显著的空间差异性;4）土壤粒径的时空分布可以综合反映出滩涂围垦区的环境特点,对指导垦区内土地资源的合理开发利用具有重要意义。在长期的围垦过程中,不同的开发利用时间及区位表现出了不同的关键影响因素,使垦区内土地利用格局和资源配置仍存在诸多不合理之处,随之带来相应的环境问题必须引起重视,为未来滩涂围垦区的合理规划提供理论依据。     

中国城市工业污染强度与经济增长耦合关系

利用幂函数模型对中国46个重点城市1993-2006年人均GDP和7项工业污染强度指标进行曲线拟合,用于描述和分析我国城市经济发展与工业污染强度的耦合状态,经模型推导提出了“效率弹性系数”,作为度量城市经济与工业污染控制协调发展程度的指标。拟合统计结果显示,中国城市工业污染强度与经济增长的关系曲线形状有明显的幂函数特征。样本城市在“曲线簇”中的位置能揭示“后发优势”以及经济-环境耦合水平优劣的信息。对样本城市效率弹性系数的统计分析证明,该系数可以作为城市经济环境管理的决策依据。     

Effects of Bridge Shading on Estuarine Marsh Benthic Invertebrate Community Structure and Function

The effect of bridge shading on estuarine marsh food webs was assessed by comparing benthic invertebrate communities beneath seven highway bridges with marshes outside of bridge-affected areas (reference marshes). We used light attenuation and height–width ratio (HW ratio), which takes into account the two main bridge characteristics that determine the degree of shading, to quantify the impact of shading on invertebrate communities. Low bridges, with HW ratio <0.7 and light attenuation greater than 85–90%, had benthic invertebrate densities and diversity that were significantly lower than reference marshes. Density of benthic invertebrates at low bridges was 25–52% (29,685–72,920 organisms/m²) of densities measured in adjacent reference marshes (119,329–173,351 organisms/m²). Likewise, there were fewer taxa under low bridges (5.8/11.35 cm² core) as compared to the reference marshes (9.0/11.35 cm² core). Density of numerically dominant taxa (e.g., oligochaetes and nematodes) as well as surface- and subsurface deposit feeders also were reduced under low bridges. Decreased invertebrate density, diversity, dominant taxa, and alterations of trophic feeding groups beneath low bridges was correlated with diminished above- and below-ground macrophyte biomass that presumably resulted in fewer food resources and available refuges from predators. With a greater knowledge of bridge shading effects, bridge construction and design may be improved to reduce the impacts on estuarine benthic invertebrate communities and overall ecosystem structure and function.

Pollen dispersal and intensity as criteria for the minimum viable population and species reserves

In small populations the lack of mating individuals may cause a reduction in reproductive potential which can restrict population expansion or cause further population declines. This is especially true in outcrossing monoecious and self-incompatible dioecious plant species. Principles of pollen dispersal suggest that many small to medium size population reserves of round shape will maximize the pollen interaction within and between island reserves. Diverse and low-density ecosystems require more total area in reserves than low-diversity and high-density ecosystems.     

Materials intensity of GDP: Research issues on the measurement and explanation of change

The intuitively appealing notion that the materials intensity of GDP declines with economic maturity has recently attracted attention: Upon closer inspection the basic concept is seen to be vaguely defined: efforts at measurement do not yield unequivocal results and the causes of change are imperfectly understood. Further research is required using input-output models to trace the impact of technological change on materials consumption for economies at differing levels of development and with differing industrial structures.     

放牧阉牦牛提前出栏甲烷排放强度减排潜力探讨

以阉牦牛提前出栏项目活动为例,按照2006年IPCC国家温室气体清单优良做法指南的计量方法,在同等牧草利用量的前提下,分别对4岁和7岁阉牦牛一生CH4排放总量和单位体重CH4排放量(即排放强度)进行了初步比较分析.发现在同等牧草利用量的基础上,由于饲养一头7岁阉牦牛一生所消耗的牧草量相当于可饲养2.1头4岁的阉牦牛所消耗的牧草量,所以从CH4排放总量而言,前者一生排放CH4总量比后者少86.3 kg.然而,由于后者总体重比前者重192 kg,所以,后者的单位体重CH4排放强度(以CH4/体重计)只有0.973 kg·kg-1,而前者为1.374 kg·kg-1.根据排放强度的概念,在同等牧草消耗量的基础上,如果将一头7岁阉牦牛替代成饲养2.1头4岁的阉牦牛,可以多生产192 kg的活体重,在同样生产192 kg活重的基础上,利用替代法估算后者饲养方式比前者饲养方式可以实现77 kg CH4减排量,即相当于总减排1.6 t CO2当量.因此,基于排放强度减排而不是总量减排的概念,提前出栏有较大的CH4减排潜力.     

辽河下游CDOM吸收与荧光特性的季节变化研究

有色溶解有机物(CDOM)是一类广泛分布于水体中的溶解有机物(DOM),是水环境中最大的溶解有机碳贮库.辽河是中国七大河流之一,年径流量为14.8亿m3,因此对于辽河CDOM的研究对辽河有机碳通量的估算具有重要意义.基于吸收光谱和荧光光谱分析了不同季节辽河下游河流中CDOM的光学特性.通过分析CDOM的吸收光谱及斜率(S)得到春季水样CDOM在355 nm的吸收系数[aCDOM(355)]低于秋季和冬季;秋季CDOM的分子量要小于冬季和春季,而春季CDOM的分子量大于秋、冬季.通过对比分析3期荧光强度及各荧光峰(类腐殖酸荧光峰,峰A、峰C;类蛋白质荧光峰,峰B、峰T),发现辽河下游水体CDOM的荧光特性表现明显的季节性,而且都表现出较强的类蛋白质荧光峰(峰B和峰T).春季的两个类腐殖质荧光之间以及秋、冬季两个类蛋白质荧光之间均存在很强的相关性(R2>0.9),说明来源或性质相同.春季CDOM的两个类蛋白质荧光峰的相关性较差(R2=0.21),反映了其组分的复杂性和来源的多样性;春季水体显现出较强的类腐殖酸荧光峰,说明外源输入是春季水体CDOM中类腐殖酸成分的主要来源.另外,本研究将aCDOM(355)和Fn(355)进行分析发现冬季两者相关性最好(R2=0.75),秋季次之(R2=0.48),冬季结果较不理想(R2=0.01).通过荧光峰值与CDOM浓度之间的相关分析可以得到荧光峰B是秋、冬季CDOM荧光的主要控制发光基团(R=0.66;R=0.89),而春季CDOM的类腐殖酸荧光(峰A和峰C)表现比较突出(R=0.74;R=0.82).     

基于LDI的土地利用类型与湿地水质的相关性:以苏州太湖三山岛国家湿地公园为例

以苏州太湖三山岛国家湿地公园为例,探索不同时空条件下土地利用类型整体与水质之间的相关关系.使用主成分分析计算出每个采样点的水质综合指数,基于GIS空间分析技术计算表征土地利用类型综合效应的景观开发强度指数(landscape development intensity,LDI),运用Pearson相关分析探讨水质与土地利用类型之间的整体相关性.结果表明,水质随着湿地公园空间分布不同而有较大的差异,研究区西部水质较好,东部水质较差;建设用地与水质综合指数存在明显的正相关,自然水体则与水质综合指数呈显著的负相关;缓冲区半径为100、150、200、250、300、350、400、450和500 m的LDI综合指数与水质综合指数的Pearson相关系数分别为0.641、0.678、0.691、0.685、0.691、0.695、0.680、0.653和0.649(P0.01),它们之间存在显著而稳定的相关性,可以体现出多种土地利用类型对湿地水质的整体影响,部分克服了单项土地利用类型表达不完整、难以解释水质变化的不足.     

Assessment of the nitrogen and carbon budget of two managed temperate grassland fields

Greenhouse gas budgets as well as the productivity of grassland systems are closely related to the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles. Within the framework of the CarboEurope and NitroEurope projects we have measured C and N exchange on the field scale at the grassland site Oensingen previously converted from arable rotation. The site is located on the Swiss Central Plateau and consists of two parallel fields of equal size. One field was subjected to intensive management with average nitrogen input of 230 kg-N ha⁻¹ year⁻¹ and 4–5 cuts per year, and the other to an extensive management with no fertilisation and less frequent cutting. The total C budget of the fields was assessed by measuring the CO₂ exchange by eddy covariance and analysing the carbon import by manure application and export by harvest. The N budget of the managed grassland is more complex. Besides the management related import and export, it includes gaseous exchange in many different forms (NO, NO₂, HNO₃, N₂O, NH₃, N₂) needing different analytical techniques, as well as input by rain and leaching of N-compounds with the soil water. The main (“level-3”) field sites in the NitroEurope project are supposed to measure 95% of the N fluxes at the field scale. For several of the N fluxes specific measurements have been performed for 1 year or longer at the site. Some of the remaining N budget components (dry and wet deposition) could be estimated from results of a national deposition network, while other components (NH₃ and N₂ emission) were estimated based on literature parameterisations. However, we found indications that the (systematic) uncertainties of these estimated N-fluxes are large and that it is important to make site-specific measurement for all relevant budget components. The suitability of corresponding experimental methods is discussed.Analysis of the C budget over a 6-year period (2002–2007) showed a significant mean difference between the two newly established grassland fields with a likely net carbon loss for the extensive management and a net sequestration for the intensive management. Since the C/N ratio of the soil organic matter of the grassland is constrained in a rather narrow range around 9.3, the change in the soil carbon pool is supposed to be accompanied by a corresponding change in the N storage. This approach provided an alternative method to check the N budget of the two grassland fields derived from the individual N fluxes.
