构建限制性条件下微生物群体生长模型时的问题

Logistic生长模型在表征营养限制性生长条件下微生物群体生长时,遇到了种种困难．该模型未能明确给出微生物群体生长的“延迟期”和“代时”两个重要生长动力学参数,也忽视了方程中参数“r”应为平均生长速率,且不具有内禀生长率性质等诸多生物学特点．采用E．coli ATCC31343,37℃液体摇瓶培养下获得的实验数据,证实了Logistic模型存在的上述局限性．通过对E．coli以葡萄糖和山梨醇共作碳源时,表现出的“二峰生长”曲线与用Logistic方程拟合结果的比较,表明适合度分析（goodness—fit test）不能作为模型是否适合的唯一判据．并对构建微生物群体生长模型的策略进行了讨论．图5参31

Could we remain simply applying discount rate to evaluate the life quality of our future generations?

When we try to estimate future environmental costs resulting from our current economic activities,we usually calculate the present value of the consequences for our future generations by utilizing a discount rate as a standard economic procedure.The popularity of this procedure is solely supported by its simplicity which assumes:(1)a perfect financial market over even 100 years,and(2)existence of a stable time preference between two consecutive periods for an individual consumer.An apparent deficiency of this approach is that the present value of life quality of future generations varies to a large extent along an arbitrarily chosen discount rate.As a matter of fact,the discount rate,which could reflect the time preference as2%or 5%,matters when we predict current strategies of environmental protection for future generations.Simply applying a discount rate to evaluate the quality of our future generation,without clarifying the actual production mechanism behind this,is almost to the same as ignoring the fact that all of the goods are produced through an actual production process and that environmental degradation reduces the efficiency of that process.The greatest concern for our future generations should not be given by an assumed discount rate,since the discount rate itself is determined by financial market conditions at certain points in time.     

Upscaling heterogeneity in aquifer reactivity via the exposure-time concept: inverse model

A novel inverse technique is proposed to quantitatively characterize macroscopic variability in aquifer reactivity in a Lagrangian representation. Reactivity heterogeneity is expressed in terms of distributions of flux over cumulative time of exposure of the solution to reactive surface area, termed here 'cumulative reactivity'. In cases involving single aqueous species the combined effects of physical and reactivity heterogeneity on reactive solute transport can often be established and further investigated through joint distributions of flux over travel time and cumulative reactivity. The inverse technique requires the breakthrough curve of a passive tracer to determine the distribution of flux over travel time, and additional breakthrough curves of reactive tracers provide additional moments of the distribution of flux over cumulative reactivity given travel time. Thus breakthroughs of one passive and two reactive tracers can provide the mean and variance of the distribution of flux over cumulative reactivity. This Lagrangian characterization is achieved with knowledge of the types of reactive surfaces present, but not their spatial locations. The distributions can subsequently be applied via forward modeling using the same technique to predict breakthrough curves of other solutes undergoing first-order reactions in similar physically and chemically heterogeneous configurations.     

Toxicity of Heavy Metals on Scenedesmus quadricauda (Turp.) de Brébisson in Batch Cultures (7 pp)

Background Aquatic environments are often exposed to various pollutants like heavy metals that are released from industrial, agricultural and domestic wastes. Emissions of heavy metals can then enter all ecosystems and bring about severe problems in plants, especially algae depending on the concentrations of a given element. The objective of the investigation presented is to detect toxic effects due to some heavy metals in the biomass of green alga Scenedesmus quadricauda. Methods All experiments were conducted with axenic cultures of the green alga Scenedesmus quadricauda (Turp.) de Brebisson (Chlorococcales, Chlorophyta). The cultures were grown in Chu-no.10 medium, and optimum physical and chemical growth conditions were provided to get higher growth rates and lower doubling times of cells. Growth of the micro algal cultures was measured on a daily schedule by counting cultures and determination of chlorophyll-a. The sterile-filtered heavy metal concentration solutions (Cd, Pb and Cu) were prepared and added as stock solutions of their salts (CdCl2*2.5 H2O, Pb(NO3)2*H2O and CuSO4*5 H2O). Results and Discussion The growth decreased gradually with the alga exposed to Cd at 0.05, 0.1, and 0.5 mg/L in comparison with the control whereas 1 mg/L Cd2+ had a clearly destructive effect. The growth was decreased with Pb at 15, 20 and 25 mg/L gradually, while at 30 mg/L the effect was more pronounced. When Cu was used, the growth was increased gradually at 0.5, 1 and 1.5 mg/L and vice versa at 2 mg/L. Conclusion There were differences in toxic effects of the metals with different metal as well as their concentrations and the time of exposure.     

Hydrodynamic characteristics of a four-compartment periodic anaerobic ba ed reactor

Periodic anaerobic baffled reactor (PABR) is a novel reactor based on the design concept of anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR). Residence time distribution (RTD) studies on both clean and working reactors at the same hydraulic residence time (HRT) of 2 d were carried out to investigate the dead spaces and mixing patterns in PABRs at different organic loading rates (OLRs) in various switching manners and frequencies.The results showed that the fraction of dead space in PABR was similar to that in ABR,which was low in comparison with other reactor designs.Dead space may be divided into two categories,hydraulic and biological.In RTD studies without biomass,the hydraulic dead space in the PABR run in an"every second"switching manner with T=2 d was the lowest whereas that in the PABR run in a T=∞(ABR) switching manner was the highest.The same trend was obtained with the total dead space in RTD studies with biomass no matter what the OLR was.Biological dead space was the major contributor to dead space but affected decreasingly at higher OLR whichever switching manner the PABR run in.The flow patterns within the PABRs were intermediate between plug-flow and perfectly mixed under all the conditions tested.     

基于20 L球罐的多相混合物扩散模拟

为更好地探索多相混合物的爆炸特性，以铝粉、乙醚、空气为研究对象，基于20 L球型爆炸罐建立三维计算模型，对气固两相和气液固三相混合物的分散过程进行数值模拟，以分析不同多相混合物分散过程的差异，并为测量多相混合物爆炸下限时的点火延迟时间设定提供参考。监测分析铝粉浓度粒子分布、流场内部湍流动能以及液相体积百分数等的演化过程，讨论混合物分散效果的差异，并确定测量爆炸下限的点火延迟时间。研究结果表明:实验工况下，液相的存在会降低粉尘云团的湍流动能、降低其扩散速度，并使粉尘云内部浓度更均匀。测量多相混合物爆炸下限时，三相混合物的最佳点火延迟时间早于气固两相混合物10~20 ms。     

自然灾害风险的行为主体特性与时间尺度问题

文章认为：要正确理解灾害风险的概念内涵,首先必须深刻认识灾害风险的行为主体特性,即,自然灾害风险是相对于行为主体——人类及其社会经济活动而言的;灾害风险依赖风险载体某种“价值”的存在而存在;灾害风险随人类某种社会经济活动目标的变化而变化。文章还认为：时间尺度问题,尽管比较复杂,但却是深刻认识、正确评价和有效管理灾害风险所必须澄清的基本问题,灾害风险中的时间尺度可通过如下几方面加以理解和认识,即,不同类别的风险载体具有不同的灾害风险有效时间尺度;不同种类的灾害风险具有不同的时间尺度特性;在不同的时间尺度上,同类灾害风险具有不同的形式和特点。     

2000~2010年大鹏湾颗粒有机物的年变化和年际变化

依据2000～2010年每月一次的调查资料,简要描述和讨论了大鹏湾中颗粒有机物(particulate organic matter,POM)质量浓度的时空分布,并结合叶绿素a(chlorophyll a,Chl-a)实测数据探讨POM的组成和滞留时间.结果表明,大鹏湾的水动力条件对POM的分布变化影响不大,POM质量浓度为(1.1±0.8)mg·L-1,与珠江口伶仃洋和大亚湾的差别不大,但比南海北部的高.在表层,POM与Chl-a之间存在显著正相关,浮游植物有机物(phytoplankton POM,PPOM)∶Chl-a比率为70 g·g-1左右,由此估算的大鹏湾PPOM质量浓度为(0.31±0.39)mg·L-1,约占POM的28%.由初级生产力(primary productivity,PP)和累计POM(integrated POM,IPOM)估算的大鹏湾中POM的滞留时间约为6.5 d,与东海南部沿岸陆架区POC的相近.11 a调查期间,PP的年际变化略呈下降趋势,而POM和IPOM的年际变化呈较明显的上升趋势,暗示难降解的碎屑POM在大鹏湾中逐渐积累.
