鄱阳湖天然湖面遥感监测及其与水位关系研究

以1989—2010年鄱阳湖100期(景)Landsat TM/ETM+影像为数据源,对比分析了水体指数法和谱间关系法两种主要的水体提取方法,利用水体指数法提取了天然湖体水面面积,揭示了不同水位下鄱阳湖天然湖体水面的空间扩展过程与特征,建立了汛期与非汛期水面-水位关系模型并确定了相应代表性水位站。结果表明:①在鄱阳湖,水体指数法水体提取精度优于谱间关系法;②受地形影响,不同水位条件下鄱阳湖天然水面的空间扩展特征大致呈"菱形"沿湖岸以顺时针方向(即:北→东→南→西→北)推进;③水位为6~15 m时,鄱阳湖天然湖体水面随水位变化呈线性变化,水面变化显著;而在水位介于15~22 m时,天然湖体水面随水位变化则呈对数变化。基于水面-水位关系模型,确定汛期代表性水位站为星子站、都昌站与吴城站;而非汛期代表性水位站为棠荫站。     

邻苯二甲酸二乙基己酯(DEHP)对THP-1细胞IL-1β和MMP-8表达及ROS的影响

为探讨邻苯二甲酸二乙基己酯((DEHP)的细胞免疫毒性作用与机制,采用RT-PCR和ELISA方法,考察了0.05～1μmol·L-1浓度范围内的DEHP对THP-1细胞白细胞介素-1β(IL-1β)及基质金属蛋白酶-8(MMP-8)基因和蛋白表达的影响;采用免疫印迹WesternBlot方法检测DE-HP对ERK1/2磷酸化水平的影响;以2,'7-'二氯荧光素二乙酸酯(DCFH-DA)为荧光探针检测1～50μmol·L-1DEHP对细胞内活性氧(ROS)产生的影响。结果显示,0.05和0.2μmol·L-1DEHP在6h内显著诱导IL-1β和MMP-8基因表达(P<0.05或0.01);0.05～1μmol·L-1DEHP刺激细胞48h,可诱导IL-1β蛋白表达,并表现出明显的剂量-效应关系,线性拟合的确定系数为0.937;0.05μmol·L-1DEHP刺激细胞6或12h,显著诱导MMP-8蛋白表达(P<0.05);0.2μmol·L-1DEHP在15～30min内快速诱导ERK1/2磷酸化;1～50μmol·L-1DEHP浓度依赖性刺激细胞中ROS的产生;ERK/MAPK抑制剂PD98059显著抑制DEHP诱导的MMP-8分泌,但对IL-1β分泌未表现出抑制作用。研究表明,DEHP可能是经ERK/MAPK信号路径诱导MMP-8基因和蛋白的表达,经其他路径诱导IL-1β基因和蛋白的表达,诱导细胞内ROS的产生,从而激发炎症反应,进而损害免疫系统功能引发哮喘等炎症性疾病。此研究结果可为DEHP的暴露风险评估提供参考。     

采用代谢流量分析方法评估二噁英对细胞的代谢干扰

以肝癌细胞HepG2为供试细胞,选用5个不同浓度的二噁英（0、0.001、0.01、0.1和1.0 nmol.L-1）,探讨2,3,7,8-TCDD对HepG2细胞的毒性效应.采用90%甲醇离心法实现蛋白与代谢产物的分离,建立了高效液相色谱-串联三重四极杆质谱（HPLC-MS/MS）分析胞外液中的23种代谢产物（20种氨基酸、乳酸、甘油和尿素）的方法.建立的HPLC-MS/MS分析方法对各化合物的加标回收率可达91%—105%之间,化合物浓度的标准偏差均小于10%.在此基础上,结合代谢流量分析系统研究了2,3,7,8-TCDD对HepG2细胞内代谢流的影响.结果表明,随着浓度的增高,2,3,7,8-TCDD对HepG2细胞代谢的干扰作用呈增强趋势.2,3,7,8-TCDD降低了细胞对葡萄糖的吸收,并进一步抑制了HepG2细胞糖酵解的速率.此外,2,3,7,8-TCDD导致了HepG2细胞乳酸代谢流的明显增加,由此使细胞产生了过量的乳酸.     

丙烷催化还原脱硝中硫中毒Cu-Ir/H-ZSM-5催化剂的再生

考察了5%H₂/Ar还原再生丙烷催化还原NO_x中硫中毒Cu-Ir/H-ZSM-5催化剂的工艺参数影响,采用N₂吸附、X射线衍射、X射线光电子能谱和氢气程序升温还原等手段研究了催化剂再生行为的构效关系.结果表明,硫中毒Cu-Ir/H-ZSM-5催化剂由于CuSO₄的生成导致催化剂活性位损失,比表面积、微孔面积和孔体积的减小.H₂还原再生的最佳工艺参数为再生温度500℃和再生气体用量42.8L/g_催化剂,再生催化剂的活性可恢复到新鲜催化剂的95%.在最佳再生条件(500℃和42.857L/g_催化剂)下,再生催化剂表面CuSO₄含量最低(0.4%),且再生催化剂的比表面积、微孔面积和孔体积较失活催化剂有较大提高.     

增塑剂邻苯二甲酸二异壬酯对雄性小鼠生殖毒性的氧化损伤机制

研究增塑剂邻苯二甲酸二异壬酯(diisononyl phthalate,DINP)对雄性小鼠生殖毒性的氧化损伤机制,以昆明雄性小鼠为受试动物,随机分为7组,包括空白对照组(生理盐水),4个DINP暴露组(0.2、2、20和200 mg·kg~(-1))和褪黑素(melatonin,Mel)对照组50 mg·kg~(-1)、Mel处理组(200 mg·kg~(-1)DINP+50 mg·kg~(-1)Mel),灌胃14 d。以睾丸组织匀浆测定活性氧(ROS)、还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)和8-羟基脱氧鸟苷(8-OHdG)含量;以睾丸组织细胞测定DNA-蛋白交联(DPC)系数。随着DINP暴露剂量的增加,DINP暴露组睾丸组织ROS、8-OHdG含量和DPC系数逐渐上升,GSH含量逐渐降低,差异有统计学意义(P0.05,P0.01); Mel处理组ROS、8-OHdG含量和DPC系数相应降低,GSH含量逐渐上升。雄性小鼠睾丸组织形态观察结果表明,随着DINP暴露剂量的增加,小鼠睾丸组织的病理损伤程度呈上升趋势。实验结果表明,较高剂量(≥20 mg·kg~(-1))的DINP能造成小鼠睾丸组织的病理损伤和氧化损伤,50 mg·kg~(-1)Mel的抗氧化能力可以有效对小鼠睾丸组织起保护作用,使组织损伤减轻,即生殖毒性减弱。     

Fetoplacental discrepancy involving structural abnormalities of chromosome 8 detected by prenatal diagnosis

We describe the finding of three cell lines involving different structural abnormalities of chromosome 8 detected in a prenatal diagnosis. Chorionic villi sampling (CVS) was performed on a pregnant woman because of advanced maternal age. Semidirect cytogenetic analysis showed a mos46,XX,i(8q)/46,XX,del(8)(p11.2) karyotype, confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Amniocentesis was subsequently performed, and the karyotype obtained was 46,XX,dup(8)(p23p11.2). The pregnancy was terminated; pathologic findings included clubfeet, clenched left hand, subcutaneous edema and bilateral hydrocephalus. Molecular studies using chromosome 8 microsatellites performed on parents' blood and fetal tissues revealed a maternal meiotic origin of the inv dup(8p) with deletion of the distal p23 region and duplication of the remaining 8p. We propose a model to explain the cytogenetic findings, which includes a first maternal meiotic error giving rise to a large dicentric isochromosome 8 present in the ovum, a second error in one of the first zygote divisions with misdivision of the dicentric 8 giving rise to a cell line with del(8p) confined to the trophoblast and another cell line with inv dup(8p) confined to the fetal tissue and a third error in the trophoblast giving rise to a further cell line with isochromosome 8q.

Remote Sensing of Landscape-Level Coastal Environmental Indicators

Advances in technology and decreases in cost are making remote sensing (RS) and geographic information systems (GIS) practical and attractive for use in coastal resource management. They are also allowing researchers and managers to take a broader view of ecological patterns and processes. Landscape-level environmental indicators that can be detected by Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) and other remote sensors are available to provide quantitative estimates of coastal and estuarine habitat conditions and trends. Such indicators include watershed land cover, riparian buffers, shoreline and wetland changes, among others. With the launch of Landsat 7, the cost of TM imagery has dropped by nearly a factor of 10, decreasing the cost of monitoring large coastal areas and estuaries. New satellites, carrying sensors with much finer spatial (1-5 m) and spectral (200 narrow bands) resolutions are being launched, providing a capability to more accurately detect changes in coastal habitat and wetland health. Advances in the application of GIS help incorporate ancillary data layers to improve the accuracy of satellite land-cover classification. When these techniques for generating, organizing, storing, and analyzing spatial information are combined with mathematical models, coastal planners and managers have a means for assessing the impacts of alternative management practices.     

HYDROLOGICAL APPLICATIONS OF LANDSAT IMAGERY USED IN THE STUDY OF THE 1973 INDUS RIVER FLOOD,PAKISTAN1

ABSTRACT: During August and September 1973, the Indus River Valley of Pakistan experienced one of the largest floods on record, resulting in damages to homes, businesses, public works, and crops amounting to millions of rupees. Tremendous areas of lowlands were inundated along the Indus River and major tributaries. Landsat data made it possible to easily measure the extent of flooding, totaling about 20,000 km² within an area of about 400,000 km² south from the Punjab to the Arabian Sea. The Indus River data were used to continue experimentation in the development of rapid, accurate, and inexpensive optical techniques of flood mapping by satellite begun in 1973 for the Mississipi River floods. The research work on the Indus River not resulted in the development of more effective procedures for optical processing of flood data and synoptically depicting flooding, but also provided potentially valuable ancillary information concerning the hydrology of much of the Indus River Basin.     

Using Landsat data to estimate evapotranspiration of winter wheat

An evapotranspiration (ET) model that accurately estimates daily water use and soil moisture on a regional basis is required for many agricultural and hydrological studies. The model should use meterological data that are readily available and crop information that is responsive to the changing vigor of the plants.We evaluated an ET model with a weighing lysimeter and then applied it to winter wheatfields at four Kansas locations. Model inputs are solar radiation, temperature, precipitation, and leaf area index (LAI); included in the outputs are estimates of transpiration, evaporation, and soil moisture. An equation was developed to estimate LAI from Landsat data. Because LAI can be estimated from satellites, the ET model can potentially be used on a regional basis.     

中国大陆8级地震的空间关联特征及复发周期探讨

某些8级以上地震具有在同一经线和同一纬线上成组交替发生的特点.在此认识的基础上应用"黄金分割数"探讨了8级地震的空间关联现象.结果发现8级地震具有空间关联特征,其关联特征可以用"黄金分割数"定量描述.据此建立了"黄金分割预测模型",并对昆仑山口西8.1级地震后的下一次8级地震的发生区域进行了预测.中国大陆及周边的M≥7(3)/(4)级地震有25年的复发周期,这种复发周期既有较小范围的转移,也有较大范围的转移.由此预测下次8级地震将发生在2022年前后.
