北部湾沿海地区植被覆盖对气温和降水的旬响应特征

论文分析北部湾沿海地区植被覆盖对气候变化的响应,为该区域植被恢复和植被生产力研究提供依据.基于研究区2000--2011年423景SPOT-VEGETATION逐旬NDVI数据及逐日气温和降水数据,利用像元二分模型,相关分析,偏相关分析和时滞偏相关分析等数理统计方法,对研究区植被覆盖时空变化特征及与旬降水和旬均温的相关性及滞后性进行分析.结果表明:1)近12 a来,北部湾沿海地区植被覆盖度平均值呈增长趋势,由2000年的65.23%增加到2011年的72.02%,增加了6.79%;2)研究区植被生长季旬NDVI均值介于0.21~0.67之间,在不同时期变化是不同的,其值呈现出"降低--增长--降低"3种变化过程;3)各种植被类型与温度具有显著的相关关系,全部通过了0.01的显著性水平,且NDVI与温度的显著性水平高于NDVI与降水的显著性水平,说明北部湾沿海地区植被覆盖NDVI对气象因子中的温度更为敏感;4)NDVI与气温的时滞偏相关系数显著高于NDVI与降水的时滞偏相关系数,旬NDVI与旬降水的滞后时间多集中于6~9旬之间,而旬NDVI与旬气温的滞后时间多以0~5旬为主;5)不同类型植被的生长对气温和降水的响应时间不一致,但与水热条件时滞偏相关系数越高的植被类型响应时间越短.上述研究结果表明,近12 a来北部湾沿海地区植被处于恢复状态,且植被对降水和气温具有明显的阈值和滞后性.     

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。     

苏北滨海滩涂区土壤重金属含量及其时空变异研究

以苏北沿海某滩涂区为研究区,采用经典统计与地统计相结合的方法总结出2009年和2014年表层土壤Pb、Cr、Cd、As四种元素的含量,分析了土地利用方式对重金属含量影响以及重金属空间分布与时空变异.结果表明:滩涂区土壤4种元素含量基本都低于土壤环境质量一级标准值; 2009~2014年的5a间,研究区土壤Cd含量发生显著累积,居民区土壤Pb含量显著增加,工业园区土壤Pb、Cd亦显著累积,各土地利用方式下土壤Cr、As含量变化不显著;受大尺度的潮汐沉积作用与小尺度的人为活动共同控制,两个时期Pb、Cr含量分布具有空间相似性,而Cd、As含量空间分布差异较大;不同土地利用方式下研究区土壤重金属的累积具有变异性和明显的趋势效应,大气沉降是除了土地利用方式以外影响重金属时空变异格局的重要途径.该沿海滩涂区正面临土壤重金属不断累积的问题,应加强监控与源头减量,优化产业布局,推进过程阻断与生态修复.     

Marsh Sensitivity to Burning of Applied Crude Oil

This research note summarizes Spartina alterniflora and Sagittaria lancifolia sensitivity to oiling and in situ burning of applied oil. Experimental plots (2.4 m × 2.4 m × 0.6 m) were constructed in salt and freshwater marsh habitats and South Louisiana Crude (SLC) applied (2 l m⁻²) to stems and leaves of marsh plants of oil and oil/burn treatment plots. Burning was initiated mid-August when winds were calm and a 15-25 cm floodwater layer covered the marsh substrate. Vegetative responses (stem density, height, carbon assimilation and biomass production) were measured for approximately one year following the in situ burns. Application of oil and burning of SLC only had short-term detrimental effects on salt and freshwater marsh vegetation. About one year after burns, vegetative responses measured in oiled and oiled/burned plots approached or exceeded control (no oil or burn) values. Field results suggest, under our experimental conditions, in situ burning of spilled oil in S. alterniflora and S. lancifolia marshes may be a remediation operation to consider.     

新时代生态环境建设中陆海统筹发展对策研究——以厦门为例

海岸带地区是陆海交互作用区,是陆海统筹中需要重点关注的区域,党的十九大报告里提出要坚持陆海统筹,《深化党和国家机构改革方案》中提出整合原环境保护部等部委的相关污染防治和生态保护执法及国家海洋局的海洋环境保护职责,组建生态环境部。本研究通过对厦门市陆海统筹政策现状系统梳理分析,厘清生态环境建设中陆海统筹的关键问题,总结出陆海统筹工作的对策建议,包括构建生态环境陆海统筹管理新模式、蓝色经济与生态文明协同发展新模式、基于绿色发展的弹性海岸新模式、"三个一"智慧海岸带大数据信息系统技术新体系等。这些对策对于我国海岸带城市区域生态环境建设的陆海统筹和海岸带综合管理工作具有借鉴意义。     

滨海城区土地利用格局时空演变及生态服务价值研究--以大连市旅顺口区为例

基于大连市旅顺口区4期土地利用数据,应用土地利用矩阵等方法揭示了2006—2015年旅顺口区土地利用方式和生态服务价值的时空变化特征。结果发现:①旅顺口区土地利用呈现出从未利用地、耕地转移至建设用地的趋势,北部建设用地与耕地之间转换最为剧烈。②近10年间旅顺口区生态服务价值降低了5.63亿元,“建设用地→林地”是生态服务价值提升效率最高的转换类型。③只有林地的生态敏感性指数大于1,说明旅顺口区生态服务价值缺乏弹性。     

杭州湾南岸滨海平原土地利用/覆被空间格局变化分析

杭州湾南岸滨海平原位于沪、杭、甬经济金三角的中心地带,是我国沿海经济最发达的地区之一。研究其土地利用/覆被空间格局变化对合理利用土地资源,促进沿海地区的可持续发展具有重要意义。利用1987年和2000年2个时期的TM影像,分析了杭州湾南岸滨海平原土地利用/覆被数量及空间格局变化特征。结果表明,杭州湾南岸滨海平原建设用地、水体和养殖用地呈现明显的增长趋势,水田、旱地、滩地、林地和盐田呈减少趋势。受自然和人类活动的共同影响,土地利用/覆被类型斑块平均面积由0.245 km2降至0.173 km2,斑块密度则由4.081个/km2提高到5.781个/km2,斑块数量增加了42%。由于斑块的破碎化,大部分土地利用/覆被类型的边界密度、形态指数、分维数和斑块密度都有不同程度的增加。城市化和非农化的发展使得建设用地格局指数变化表现出一定的特殊性。     

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Removal of lead and cadmium ions from aqueous solutions using the macroalga Caulerpa racemosa

Sediment bulk parameters and fatty acid biomarkers were used to investigate the relative contribution of major sources of particulate organic matter during upwelling and non-upwelling conditions, at organic enriched sites on the south-eastern Brazilian coast. The degradation state of the organic material and its implications for benthic food webs were also evaluated. Temperature and salinity values indicate the intrusion of the South Atlantic Central Water in spring with a strong influence at station 4S. C:N ratios and fatty acid biomarkers suggest that sedimentary particulate organic matter is mainly autochthonous and originated from phytoplankton, zooplankton and bacteria, with a minor terrestrial contribution. Short-chain saturated fatty acids predominated, indicating the prevalence of partially degraded detritus. An exception was station 4S, where polyunsaturated fatty acids dominated, indicating the input of labile organic matter linked to upwelling of the South Atlantic Central Water. Fatty acid concentrations and the organic carbon content of the sediments suggest that food quantity is not a limiting factor for benthic fauna. Despite the high organic background of the sediments, the sporadic inputs of labile organic matter associated with South Atlantic Central Water intrusions may produce an important impact on benthic fauna and on the biogeochemistry of the sediments.     

Influence of human activity and monsoon dynamics on spatial and temporal hydrochemistry in tropical coastal waters (Sanya Bay,South China Sea)

Human activities and oceanic influences like mixing and/or upwelling define the hydrochemical and biological characteristics of coastal regions. In Sanya Bay, northern South China Sea, the balance between these two influences on spatial and temporal scales is poorly understood. The influence from human activities was due to discharge from Sanya River, whereas the most important marine influence was related to seasonal changes in hydrodynamics. Spatial differences (p<0.05) in total nitrogen (TN) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) were observed. Seasonal differences were observed for temperature and nutrients. Human activities are the dominant factor influemcing hydrochemistry in the inner bay. This region exhibited the maximum influence of discharge from Saya River as estimated by higher nutrient levels. Oceanic influences like upwelling and mixing caused by monsoons are the dominant factors influencing hydrochemistry in the central and outer bay. Both human activities and oceanic influences play important roles in coastal ecosystems in Sanya Bay. This study has defined these characteristics so that better management policies can be enacted.     

The Thermal Discharges From Nuclear Power Plants in Taiwan

The increasing use of sea water for industrial cooling presents a real threat to the ecological environment in the ocean. in Taiwan where many electric power plants along the coast take sea water for cooling, people are concerned seriously about nuclear power plants. There are three nuclear power plants in Taiwan. Each plant has two units for generating power. the first two are located along the northern coast of Taiwan. the third is located in Kenting National Park along the coast of southernmost Taiwan. the plants take sea water for cooling, and discharge their heated effluents to the ocean surface from the coast. the thermal effluents have variable effects on the ecological environment near the plants. Fishermen living near the power plants complain that the heated water affects the inshore fishery catch. in addition, the thermal water from the second plant is easily accumulated near the coastal zone to influence the nearby swimming area in the summer-time. the thermal water from the third plant bleaches or kills some corals in shallow water near the outlet, and this conflicts with the interests of Kenting National Park.
