人的生命价值评估方法述评

评估生命价值最常用的两种方法是人力资本法和支付意愿法。用人力资本法评估生命价值的前提是人的生命可以用一个人未来的生产能力来计量,而用支付意愿法评估生命价值的前提是人的生命可以用一个人为降低死亡风险而愿意支付的货币金额来计量。支付意愿法又包括工资—风险法、消费市场法和条件价值法3种类型。工资—风险法通过分析一个人的工资与其工作风险之间的关系来估算生命价值;消费市场法关注的是人们在其进行消费决策时,在风险与价格之间的权衡;而条件价值法则是给定一个假定情景,请被访者对货币和风险进行直接权衡来估算生命价值。笔者对国内外生命价值评估研究进行述评,指出了各种评估方法的优缺点。支付意愿法已成为国外学者评估生命价值的主流方法,学习借鉴国外的研究经验,将这一方法运用于我国的生命价值评估研究是今后国内研究的一个方向。     

Growth and photosynthesis responses of Phaeodactylum tricornutum to dissolved organic matter from salt marsh plant and sediment

The effects of allochthonous dissolved organic matter (DOM) on the growth and photosynthesis of Phaeodactylum tricornutum were investigated. P. tricornutum incubated in f/2 medium was exposed to DOM additives, which were extracted from the plant and sediment samples of a salt marsh in North Branch of the Yangtze estuary, China. During 12 days incubation, the chlorophyll fluorescence parameters of P. tricornutum were measured by a Phyto-PAM phytoplankton analyzer. Spectral properties of DOM in algae filtrates were also observed. The concentrations of chlorophyll a, active chlorophyll a, and the maximum quantum yield of photosystem II significantly decreased after four days of incubation, suggesting that the growth and photosynthetic e ciency of P. tricornutum were inhibited. After adding sediment-DOM extract, both a250/a365 (the ratio of the absorption coe cients at 250 and 365 nm) and S values (spectral slope coe cients) of algae filtrates declined in the first two days, which demonstrated a loss of low molecular weight DOM. Parallel factor analysis of fluorescence spectra of DOM in algae filtrates revealed that DOM could be classified into two humic-like and two protein-like components. The fluorescence intensity of tyrosine-like component originating from algae increased significantly during incubation. This study supports the hypothesis that allochthonous DOM derived from salt marsh plant and sediment have a strong influence on the adjacent aquatic ecosystems.     

［omim］［PF6］萃淋树脂的制备及对萘吸附机制的研究

将离子液体[omim][PF6]以液膜的形式固定在大孔吸附树脂上,制备萃淋树脂,研究其对水相中萘的吸附及影响因素.结果表明,离子液体[omim][PF6]萃取萘的过程,萘主要分配在[omim]+的疏水饱和碳链上;树脂和离子液体质量比为10∶1和20∶1的萃淋树脂,[omim][PF6]在水相中的溶解明显小于2∶1和5∶1的萃淋树脂;不同质量比萃淋树脂对萘的饱和吸附量大小为10∶1萃淋树脂>20∶1萃淋树脂>树脂,对吸附等温线的拟合结果表明,树脂对萘的吸附更符合Freundlich吸附等温式,而萃淋树脂对萘的吸附则更符合Langmuir吸附等温式.不同温度萃淋树脂对萘的饱和吸附量大小为:20℃>15℃>25℃,随着pH的升高饱和吸附量下降,随着无机盐浓度的提高饱和吸附量均有提高;正交实验确定的最佳条件为:温度=30℃、pH=3、NaCl浓度=2 000 mg.L-1,其中pH值是最主要的影响因素.

叶绿素a是衡量水体初级生产力和富营养化程度的一项重要指标。本研究在讨论分析反演水体叶绿素a浓度的半分析生物光学模型理论基础上,利用Landsat TM数据及中巴资源卫星02星CCD相机高分辨率数据,结合实测数据建立广州流溪河水库叶绿素a浓度的波段比值型反演模型。该模型对两个不同监测日期的叶绿素a浓度反演效果较好,拟合系数(R2)分别达到0.860和0.715,均方根误差分别为0.102μg/L和0.198μg/L。反演结果表明,流溪河水库叶绿素a浓度整体较低,均在2.0μg/L以下,空间分布在湖库区较均匀,入库支流玉溪河水域叶绿素a浓度略高于湖库区。     

珠江口广州海域叶绿素a分布特征及环境调控因素

于2009年5、8、10和12月对珠江口广州海域叶绿素a和环境相关因子进行了取样调查,分析了广州海域叶绿素a的时空变化特点及其分布的环境调控因素。结果表明,广州海域水体中叶绿素a变化范围为1.43～86.9μg/L,平均含量为20.7μg/L,最高值出现在夏季的N1站位,为86.9μg/L,最低值出现在春季的N8站位,为1.43μg/L。各站位叶绿素a年平均浓度从上游到下游表现出明显的递减趋势,以N1站位浓度最高(38.54μg/L),N7站位浓度最低(7.44μg/L),相差5.2倍。调查海域叶绿素a的季节变化明显,呈单峰型,总体上表现为夏季﹥秋季﹥冬季﹥春季。根据叶绿素a浓度对广州海域富营养化状态进行评价,15.6%的监测站位处于低度富营养化,50.0%处于中度富营养化,28.1%处于高度富营养化,6.3%处于过度富营养化,总的来讲,以中、高度富营养化状态为主体。叶绿素a浓度与NO3--N浓度、温度呈现出一定的正相关关系(分别为:r=0.374,p<0.05;r=0.502,p<0.01),与盐度、溶解氧呈现出一定的负相关关系(分别为:r=-0.433,p<0.05;r=0.455,p<0.01)。与国内其他近岸海域(河口)相比,珠江口广州海域叶绿素a浓度处于较高水平,仅低于深圳湾。

离子液体双水相气浮溶剂浮选分离/富集水样中的盐酸多西环素研究

建立了以亲水性离子液体1-丁基-3-甲基咪唑四氟硼酸[Bmim]BF4和Na H2PO4形成的二元双水相作为气浮溶剂分离/富集水样中盐酸多西环素的新方法,并采用紫外分光光度法对盐酸多西环素进行测定。考察了离子液体的初始加入量、盐的种类及浓度、p H值、浮选时间及N2流速等因素对体系浮选分离盐酸多西环素的影响。结果表明,改变离子液体和无机盐的加入量,会使体系的富集倍数发生变化,从而使体系的浮选效率和浓集系数发生变化;随浮选时间增加,体系的浮选效率先增加后略微下降;过大或过小的N2流速都会使体系对盐酸多西环素的浮选效率降低;而p H值对体系浮选盐酸多西环素影响不大。当[Bmim]BF4溶液加入量为3 m L、Na H2PO4加入量为25 g(质量分数为33.3%)、气浮时间为40 min、气浮速率为50 m L/min时,体系的浮选效率最高,可达95.8%,浓集系数可达23.95,此时体系的p H值为4.38。与离子液体双水相萃取(ILATPE)相比,该方法的优点在于不仅有较高的浮选率、浓集系数,还有效减少了离子液体的用量,同时操作更简单、环境友好。     

Human-derived cell lines to study xenobiotic metabolism

In vitro systems make for rapid identification of xenobiotic effects and can be used to study cellular and subcellular toxicity mechanisms. In this report the metabolic competence of two human-derived cell lines, a hepatic (Hep G2) and a pulmonary one (A549) was tested. In the two cell systems the capability to activate Benzo[a]Pyrene through the cytochrome P450 enzyme system and to form reactive metabolites was analysed. ³H-BaP and the scintillation counting analysis were used to show the differences of the metabolic activity in Hep G2 and A549. A similar time course of ³H-BaP uptake was observed in the cell systems. Nevertheless, in the two cell lines the distribution of radioactive metabolites seemed to reflect a specific tissue response to toxicity.     

Mechanisms and impacts of an incentive-based conservation program with evidence from a randomized control trial

Conservation science needs more high-quality impact evaluations, especially ones that explore mechanisms of success or failure. Randomized control trials (RCTs) provide particularly robust evidence of the effectiveness of interventions (although they have been criticized as reductionist and unable to provide insights into mechanisms), but there have been few such experiments investigating conservation at the landscape scale. We explored the impact of Watershared, an incentive-based conservation program in the Bolivian Andes, with one of the few RCTs of landscape-scale conservation in existence. There is strong interest in such incentive-based conservation approaches as some argue they can avoid negative social impacts sometimes associated with protected areas. We focused on social and environmental outcomes based on responses from a household survey in 129 communities randomly allocated to control or treatment (conducted both at the baseline in 2010 and repeated in 2015–2016). We controlled for incomplete program uptake by combining standard RCT analysis with matching methods and investigated mechanisms by exploring intermediate and ultimate outcomes according to the underlying theory of change. Previous analyses, focused on single biophysical outcomes, showed that over its first 5 years Watershared did not slow deforestation or improve water quality at the landscape scale. We found that Watershared influenced some outcomes measured using the survey, but the effects were complex, and some were unexpected. We thus demonstrated how RCTs can provide insights into the pathways of impact, as well as whether an intervention has impact. This paper, one of the first registered reports in conservation science, demonstrates how preregistration can help make complex research designs more transparent, avoid cherry picking, and reduce publication bias.     

0,0-二甲基-(2,2,2-三氯-1-羟基乙基)磷酸酯对4种藻类生长的影响

0,0-二甲基-(2,2,2-三氯~(-1)-羟基乙基)磷酸酯(敌百虫)为广谱杀虫剂,用途广泛,但对藻类的毒理学效应研究还有待完善。采用4种受试藻样,设置5个敌百虫浓度组(1、5、10、50和100 mg·L~(-1))和对照组,实验周期40 d,藻细胞的初始接种密度106cells·m L~(-1),光暗比12 h/12 h,24 h曝气,24 h磁力搅拌,实验温度25℃,p H 6.8,每隔24 h取样。结果表明:5 mg·L~(-1)、10 mg·L~(-1)、50 mg·L~(-1)浓度的敌百虫对铜绿微囊藻和小球藻的生长有促进作用,其中以50 mg·L~(-1)浓度组的促进作用最为显著,促进作用主要表现在生长峰值的延后以及生长对数期的延长,而高剂量(100 mg·L~(-1))的敌百虫则有抑制藻生长的作用。取50 mg·L~(-1)敌百虫浓度组以及铜绿微囊藻和小球藻作进一步深入研究,结果表明:50 mg·L~(-1)敌百虫浓度组的叶绿素a含量峰值比对照组高30%,细胞体内的SOD、ATP含量都高于对照组。敌百虫的使用浓度通常在0.1~1.0 mg·L~(-1),低于本实验最佳浓度。本实验中1 mg·L~(-1)敌百虫对藻生长影响效果不明显。
