某铀尾矿库周围农田土壤重金属污染潜在生态风险评价

为能够定量评价铀尾矿库周围农田土壤重金属污染程度及其潜在生态危害性,采用Hakanson潜在生态风险指数法对土壤中重金属进行综合污染评价。结果表明,铀尾矿库周围部分农田土壤中重金属Cd、Ni、As、Cu、Hg、Zn含量存在积累和超标情况,尤以Cd的污染最严重,Ni、As次之;Pb、Cr含量能够满足标准限值要求。潜在生态风险评价结果显示,铀尾矿库周围农田土壤重金属潜在生态风险较高,主要潜在生态风险因子为Cd,其次是Hg、As,Cr、Pb、Ni、Cu、Zn并不构成潜在生态风险。铀尾矿库周围农田土壤中较高水平的Cd在构成环境污染的同时,也构成了较严重的生态危害,应加强对重金属Cd、Hg的生态风险防治。

农药施用对兴凯湖水中农药残留的影响及其风险评价

主要研究了中国东北兴凯湖周围水稻种植区域农药残留以及对湖水水质的影响.分别于水稻抽穗期和水稻成熟期在兴凯湖地区对稻田、排干和大小兴凯湖地表水进行采集并对27种农药及其降解产物进行分析.结果表明,在水稻抽穗期所分析的27种农药及其降解产物全部检出,总浓度范围为247.97~6 094.49 ng·L^-1;水稻成熟期检出25种,总浓度范围为485.36~796.23 ng·L^-1,两时期对比,抽穗期的农药及其降解产物检出数量更多且总浓度更高;在水稻抽穗期阿特拉津、西草净和多效唑为主要检出农药,在水稻成熟期阿特拉津和稻瘟灵为主要检出农药;大小兴凯湖水中农药的分布特征与排干水相似,表明大小兴凯湖水中农药及其降解产物很可能来源于稻田排干的输入;在排干和大小兴凯湖水中,阿特拉津、西草净、扑草净、丁草胺、稻瘟灵和草酮RQ均值大于0.1,对水生生物存在潜在生态风险.     

Occupational risk from static magnetic fields of MRI scanners

The health care staff operating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners are exposed to static magnetic field of significant spatial heterogenity and high level of flux density—usually existing permanently during the shift. The personnel can also be exposed to pulses of magnetic field of high rate of rise/fall, so-called gradient fields, which exist only during examination of patients. The level of workers’ exposure depends both on the type of the magnet and on the ergonomical characteristic of design of the particular MRI scanner. This paper presents the current state of the art on occupational exposure to static magnetic field health effects, gaps in scientific data, MRI workers’ exposure characteristics, research needs, and suggestions for the exposure assessment protocol for future investigations.     

Immune stimulation in fish and chicken through weak low frequency electromagnetic fields

A hypothesis is proposed how Low Frequency Electromagnetic Field (LF EMF) exposure can stimulate an immune response, based on recent insights in immunology. We hypothesize that the Immunent EMF treatment induces mild stress to cells, which then produce cytokines that function as alarms or so called danger signals for the immune system. In this way EMF treatment takes the place of multiplying pathogens, and the damage these cause, in the triggering of an immune response. In a first series of experiments in␣vitro common carp head kidney-derived phagocytes were used to determine ROS production as a measure for immune activation. Exposure to LF EMF signals (200–5,000 Hz) at 5 μT or 1.5 mT led to 42 or 33% increase in immune activity, respectively, compared to negative control values. EMF could also additionally stimulate chemically pre-stimulated samples up to 18% (5 μT) or 22% (1.5 mT). Significance of increase in ROS production in the total series was: p < 0.0001. In a second series of experiments in␣vitro commercial goldfish were used. Groups of fish were housed under equal conditions in at least four control tanks and 8–16 EMF-exposed tanks. Exposure was done with a predominantly vertical field at field strengths (rms) between 0.15 and 50 μT. Without treatment mortality was about 50% after 18 days, while the treatment at 5 μT reduced it to 20% on average. At field strengths 0.15, 0.5, 1.5, 5, 15 and 50 μT an equally strong effect was found. Reducing the field strength to 0.05, 0.06, 0.01 and 0.003 μT showed a gradually decreasing effect, which only at 0.003 μT is no longer statistically significant. Finally, in␣vitro experiments were done with 560 commercial broiler chickens exposed to infection pressure from coccidiosis. EMF exposure at 6.5 μT reduced intestinal lesions by 40% and improved feed conversion by 8%.     

邻苯二甲酸二丁酯在不同品种菜心-土壤系统的累积

在邻苯二甲酸二丁酯(DBP)污染的水稻土中盆栽不同品种菜心,采用GC/MS研究了菜心-土壤系统中DBP的分布特征.结果表明,不同品种菜心茎叶和根系对DBP的吸收累积存在明显差异;不同品种菜心茎叶中DBP含量与其叶面积大小之间存在一定的正相关关系.不同品种菜心-土壤系统中DBP的分布特征明显不同,新选45天油菜心表现为茎叶和根系中DBP含量较低,盆栽后土壤中DBP含量也较低;特青60天菜心和新选油青四九菜心表现为茎叶和根系中DBP含量较低,但盆栽后土壤中DBP含量较高;油青60天菜心表现为茎叶和根系中DBP含量较高,盆栽后土壤中DBP含量也较高.

2004-2005年,在江苏沿海地区采用系统调查与面上普查相结合的方法,比较分析转Bt基因抗虫棉(中棉所44)与常规棉(中棉所17)2类棉田昆虫种群的差异.结果表明,与常规棉田相比,Bt棉田棉铃虫、玉米螟、金刚钻、棉小造桥虫等鳞翅目害虫种群数量显著降低,而盲蝽象、红蜘蛛、棉蚜、烟粉虱等非靶标刺吸式害虫种群数量显著增加;蜘蛛、瓢虫等捕食性天敌种群数量显著增加,而棉铃虫的寄生性天敌种群数量则显著下降.转Bt基因抗虫棉对棉田昆虫种群的影响在数年间保持相对稳定的状态.     

长期不同施肥措施对红壤水稻土有机碳和养分含量的影响

将红壤丘陵地区的荒地开垦为水田不仅可以防治土壤侵蚀,而且能增加土壤肥力,提高农田生产力.本文研究了红壤荒地垦殖为稻田,长期定位施肥15年后不同施肥措施下水稻土的有机碳和养分含量特征.结果表明:不同施肥措施包括不施肥条件下,15年水稻垦殖都提高了土壤肥力.不同施肥措施水稻土的pH提高了0.9～1.3个单位.耕层土壤有机碳含龟达到8.19～1O.13 g·kg-1,全氮含量达到0.89～1.20 g·kg-1,有机碳与全氮含最都有明显提高,且有机碳和全氮含量之间相关性极显著.水稻土耕层全磷含量在0.25～0360 g·kg-1之间,有效磷含量在2.2～20.9 mg·kg-1之间,化学磷肥的培肥效果好于有机肥(猪粪),有机无机磷肥配施能显著提高土壤全磷和有效磷库.土壤全钾还未有明显变化,土壤速效钾含量在40.4～142.5 mg·kg-1之间,不同施肥措施除氮钾肥处理外都造成了土壤速效钾含量下降,秸秆还田到目前为止对于土壤速效钾含量还没有明显作用.     

黄河三角洲二元结构与多元可持续发展初探

黄河三角洲由石油资源的开发而兴起,其区位条件和油气资源条件都十分优越,但目前仍处于经济发达地区的低谷区。通过对二元结构系数的定量分析,发现该地区具有明显的复合二元结构特征,即“油地+城乡”,二元结构是制约三角洲持续发展的一个重要限制性因素。目前,石油产业的全面改组改制、优越的外部环境和自身基础条件、东营港扩建及其附属加工制造业基地的立项、综合性交通运输网络体系的形成等都是三角洲全面发展的难得机遇。要实现多元可持续发展的目标,必须转变观念,由“以油建城”到“以港兴城”、大力发展资源深加工工业和具有竞争优势的制造业;构建高效生态农业经济体系;推进城市的“内聚式”发展。
