Roadside Measurements of Deforestation in the Amazon Area of Bolivia

This study describes the deforestation impact from three settlements, 5 de Junio, El Tigre, and 30 de Agosto, near the Madidi National Park in Bolivia. First deforestation rates along the road that connects the settlements and then deforestation within each settlement are examined. Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery from 1987, 1997, and 2000 were used to measure the deforestation. Face-to-face interviews were also used to collect detailed social and land-use information. Road-building and farming have been the major causes of deforestation in this region. The TM measurements indicate a high increase in the deforestation rate along the road in the area of study. The results also show a rapidly escalating deforestation rate in 5 de Junio, a potential high future deforestation rate in El Tigre, and a gradual deforestation increase in 30 de Agosto. The information provided by the settlers about clearing was compared with the imagery analysis. Generally, the settlers estimates were lower than the deforestation as derived from the imagery.     

金属有机框架ZIF-8/聚二乙烯基苯纳米复合材料的合成及其吸附VOCs的性能

在常温常压下的甲醇溶液体系中,将COOH功能化的介孔材料聚二乙烯基苯(PDVB)与微孔材料金属有机框架(MOFs)ZIF-8进行复合,获得了一种新型的多孔纳米复合材料ZIF-8/PDVB,采用XRD、FTIR、SEM和氮气吸附-脱附等方法对ZIF-8/PDVB进行表征,并考察了其吸附甲苯、乙酸乙酯的性能.XRD谱图表明,所合成的ZIF-8以晶体形式存在;FTIR和XRD的结果表明,ZIF-8与PDVB的复合是通过Zn2+与PDVB上的COOH形成配位,未配位饱和的Zn~(2+)再与2-甲基咪唑进行配位,从而形成纳米复合材料ZIF-8/PDVB;SEM结果显示,ZIF-8晶体分散在PDVB的表面上;氮气吸附-脱附表征结果显示,ZIF-8/PDVB的比表面积达到1301 m~2·g~(-1),材料同时具有介孔与微孔结构.吸附性能评价结果表明,ZIF-8/PDVB对甲苯、乙酸乙酯均具有优良的吸附性能,ZIF-8/PDVB在吸附VOCs性能上显示出潜在的巨大优势.     

高效降解1,4-二烷的固态菌剂制备及其性能研究

1,4-二烷污染的生物修复效果很大程度上取决于其降解菌的活性和数量.本研究在前期获得1,4-二烷高效降解菌Xanthobacter flavus DT8的基础上,研究了该菌的扩大培养方法,并制备了易于贮藏和运输的固态菌剂,考察了菌剂的性能.实验结果表明,菌株X. flavus DT8可在富营养培养基中培养,较优的培养基配方为：Na₂HPO₄·12H₂O 1.0 g·L^-1,NH₄Cl 1.0 g·L^-1,MgSO₄·7H₂O 0.2 g·L^-1,酵母粉5.0 g·L^-1,蛋白胨1.0 g·L^-1,丙酮酸钠1.0 g·L^-1,pH 7.0~7.2.X. flavus DT8经发酵罐中扩大培养后,以草炭、硅藻土为载体,经进一步固态发酵制备了固态菌剂,微生物含量为2.17×10¹¹ CFU·g^-1,对1,4-二烷的降解效果明显优于活菌液.该菌剂具有良好的贮藏稳定性,4℃保藏90 d后对100 mg·L^-1的1,4-二烷48 h内去除率为63%;同时具有良好的底物广谱性,对醇类、苯系物和醚类物质也有很好的降解能力.     

不同浓度甲醛致大鼠肝细胞DNA氧化损伤作用

为了探讨外源性化合物暴露致内脏细胞DNA氧化损伤程度的定量检测方法,尝试以8\|羟基脱氧鸟苷（8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine, 8-OHdG）为分子生物标志物,以甲醛为模式外源性化合物,以丙二醛（malondialdehyde, MDA）为参考指标,应用大鼠肝细胞悬液进行体外染毒实验研究.同时,实验设置甲醛染毒的终浓度分别为0、5、15、45μmol· L-1,在大鼠肝细胞悬液染毒1h后,分别测量了肝细胞悬液中的8-羟基脱氧鸟苷（8-OHdG）和丙二醛（MDA）含量.研究结果显示,随着甲醛浓度升高,大鼠肝细胞中8-OHdG和MDA含量均呈升高趋势（F=59.55,p<0.01;F=75.82,p<0.01）,高浓度组（45μmol·L-1）8-OHdG和MDA含量与对照组的差异均具有显著性（p<0.01）,中浓度组（15μmol·L-1）的这种差别也具有显著性（p<0.05, p<0.01）,低浓度组（5μmol·L-1）的这种差异没有显著性（p>0.05）.因此,8-OHdG不但可以用于血液和尿液样品的检测,而且采用本项研究摸索出的前处理方法可以很好地定量测定内脏细胞DNA氧化损伤的程度.     

Toxic effects of 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium bromide on the wheat seedlings

The toxic effects of 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium bromide ([C8mim]Br) on wheat seedlings were evaluated. Wheat seedlings were cultivated in aqueous solution with [C8mim]Br at di erent concentrations (0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 mg/L). The contents of photosynthetic pigment and proline, peroxidation of membrane lipid, and activities of antioxidation enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase and ascorbate peroxidase) in leaves were measured on day 7 after treatment with [C8mim]Br. The results showed that [C8mim]Br significantly decreased the contents of photosynthetic pigments, activities of antioxidant enzymes in the wheat leaves and in dry weight of seedlings, while increased the proline content and membrane lipid peroxidation. The results suggested that [C8mim]Br can inhibit photosynthesis and lead to oxidative stress to wheat seedlings.     

Social capital and food security in post-conflict rural Lira District,northern Uganda

While a strong relationship has been established between social capital and food security in the research literature, it is uncertain whether this holds in post-conflict situations. This study examines associations between social capital and food security in post-conflict Lira District, northern Uganda. Since factors affecting food security are complex, we explored the roles of households' characteristics in food security outcomes. Data were collected from March to July 2011 through face-to-face interviews with 221 heads of household in rural Lira. Using multinomial logistic regression, a strong positive association was identified between social capital and household food security. The study also found significant associations of food security with sex, education of household head, amount of cultivated land, and farm and home possessions. The results of this analysis can aid the design of food security programmes that empower poor people while targeting the most vulnerable groups, thereby promoting sustainable development in post-conflict communities.     

黄河口悬浮物浓度Landsat8 OLI多波段反演研究

黄河口海域悬浮物浓度,是研究黄河输沙和近岸水体生态环境的重要水质参数.之前的浓度反演模型主要采用一元二次函数或幂函数等单参数形式,利用2011年夏冬两季同步观测的遥感反射率和悬浮物浓度,本文给出了一种针对Landsat8 OLI传感器的两参数线性模型.该模型需两个输入参数,每个参数都是两个波段的光谱比值.结果表明:OLI传感器的近红外(波段5)光谱、以及它与蓝绿波段(波段1,2或3)的光谱比值,是黄河口海域悬浮物浓度反演的敏感波段,可用于建立单参数经验模型;除了敏感波段外,本研究的模型还用到红绿波段的光谱比值(波段4与波段3的比值),因而能够更好地表征光谱随悬浮物浓度的变化关系;其决定系数,均方根误差和平均相对误差分别为0.98,43.53mg·L~(-1)和20.97%,优于单参数经验模型,而且受误差影响小,因而更适合黄河口海域悬浮物浓度反演.     

城市有机垃圾焚烧烟气中氮氧化物生成特性的研究

本文对城市有机垃圾经模化后,在一小型固定床燃烧炉中进行了燃烧试验,研究了燃烧温度、炉内停留时间、过剩空气系数、垃圾粒径等因素对NOx生成的影响。研究表明,NOx在燃烧温度为600－800℃的范围内生成量最大,且随着停留时间的延长、过剩空气系数的增大、粒径的减少而增大。添加CaCO3、CaO对NOx的生成有不同程度的影响。     

浙江三门湾湿地遥感时间序列演变分析

海湾湿地演变的时空特征分析,对明晰海湾资源环境基底、了解综合开发潜力,促进湾区可持续发展具有重要意义。以浙江三门湾湿地为研究区,利用1984—2019年Landsat TM/ETM+/OLI遥感影像数据,基于湿地地物光谱指数时间序列变化特征,对三门湾湿地信息进行提取并分析了其动态变化。结果表明：1984年以来三门湾湿地面积变化显著,主要位于宁海县南部、三门县东北部以及象山县西南部地区;从海湾面积变化趋势看,1984—2002年呈波动下降趋势,2003—2009年呈加速下降趋势,2010—2019年则呈平稳发展趋势。围填海等人类活动导致海湾形态变化显著,海岸带管理政策的供给过程变化成为海湾湿地演变的重要因素之一。研究可为后围填海时代湾区建设与海湾可持续发展提供决策支持。     

活性污泥缺氧转化1-2-7-三氨基-8-羟基-3-6-萘二磺酸简

1-2-7-三氨基-8-羟基-3-6-萘二磺酸（TAHNDS）作为偶氮染料的脱色产物很难被常规的厌氧-好氧染料废水处理工艺所去除。研究了未经驯化的活性污泥对TAHNDS的缺氧转化效果。结果表明,只有在特定的缺氧条件下（ORP在-50~-150 mV之间）,TAHNDS才能被活性污泥所降解转化。当浓度在10~80 mg/L范围内,TAHNDS可在72 h内转化93%以上。加入100 mg/L的硝酸盐和0.64 mmol/L的氧化还原介体蒽醌-2-磺酸钠（AQS）可将40 mg/L的TAHNDS的转化时间从84 h缩短到36 h。光谱及HPLC-MS分析表明,TAHNDS在缺氧条件下主要是通过脱氨基和脱磺酸作用生成已知可好氧生物降解的3,5-二氨基-4-羟基萘-2-磺酸。因此,缺氧处理有望作为预处理工艺促进废水中TAHNDS的完全降解。
