Testing differences in methods of preparing moss samples

The main objective of this research was to estimate the total mass of nitrogen discharged from various sources in Korea using the mass balance approach. Three different nitrogen mass balances were presented: (1) agricultural activities including raising crops and animal husbandry; (2) domestic activities, and (3) activities in forest and urban areas. These nitrogen balances were combined to estimate riverine discharge of nitrogen to the ocean in national scale. Nitrogen inputs include atmospheric deposition, biological nitrogen fixation, application of inorganic fertilizers/manures, animal feed/imported foodstuffs, and meat/fish. Nitrogen outputs include ammonia volatilization, denitrification, human/animal waste generation, crop/meat production, and riverine discharge to the ocean. The estimated total nitrogen input in Korea was 1,194.5 × 10³ tons N/year. Nitrogen discharged into rivers was estimated as 408–422 × 10³ tons N/year, of which 66–71% was diffuse in origin. The estimated diffuse discharges for land uses were estimated as 82 × 10³ tons N/year from agricultural areas, 7 × 10³ tons N/year from forestry and 75 × 10³ tons N/year from urban and industrial areas.     

温度对生物活性炭降解卤乙酸的影响

卤乙酸(HAAs)是饮用水中常见的氯和氯胺消毒副产物,具有较高的亲水性与致癌性,为了保证水质与人体健康,各国均对其制定了相关规定。考察了生物活性碳(BAC)对9种HAA的去除性能,并探讨HAA生物降解效果随温度的变化情况与生物反应的去除机理,反应动力学与热力学。结果显示,BAC可有效去除水体中的一卤代与二卤代乙酸,难以去除三卤代乙酸。BAC的生物降解性能明显可分为2个部分:低温(5~15℃)基本不发生生物降解;高温(25~35℃)生物降解性能显著。在不同温度下,HAA的生物降解均符合一级反应动力学,反应速率常数为0.01~0.40 min-1;BAC降解HAA的过程不是逐级氢取代卤而是同时脱去所有卤素的反应,卤代乙酸生物反应的活化能为63.5~89.2 kJ/mol。     

Fe(Ⅲ)/丙酮酸钠体系光解过程中生成的 Fe(Ⅱ)浓度和·OH的浓度变化

以日光灯和金属卤化物灯为主要光源,以Fe(Ⅲ)/丙酮酸钠体系光化学过程中产生的Fe(Ⅱ)和·OH为主要检测对象,探讨了Fe(Ⅲ)/丙酮酸钠体系光解过程中生成的Fe(Ⅱ)和·OH的浓度变化.结果表明,Fe(Ⅲ)/丙酮酸钠体系的光解过程不仅能产生Fe(Ⅱ)和·OH;在丙酮酸钠过量的情况下,光解过程还存在着Fe(Ⅲ)/Fe (Ⅱ)的循环;Fe(Ⅱ)浓度和·OH累积浓度均在pH 3.00时最大;体系的光化学过程中会伴随pH的升高;初始Fe(Ⅲ)浓度和初始丙酮酸钠浓度的提高都有利于Fe(Ⅱ)浓度和·OH累积浓度的提高.     

The impact of preventive coping on business travelers' work and private life

Frequent business travel can be a burden for travelers' work and private life. We tested whether preventive coping (the proactive accumulation of resources in advance of potential stressors) makes such trips beneficial despite their potential to be stressful. In a longitudinal three‐wave study, we investigated whether frequent travel relates to an increase or decrease in work–life balance, emotional exhaustion, work engagement, and relationship satisfaction depending on preventive coping. Findings from a sample of 133 frequent business travelers revealed significant indirect effects for emotional exhaustion, work engagement, and relationship satisfaction through work–life balance. Among employees who engaged less in preventive coping, a higher number of business trips was related to a decrease in work–life balance, which, in turn, was related to more emotional exhaustion, less work engagement, and lower relationship satisfaction. Among those who reported higher preventive coping, we found opposing indirect effects: Frequent travel was related to an increase in work–life balance and, in turn, to less emotional exhaustion, more work engagement, and higher relationship satisfaction. These findings advance our knowledge in the field of business travel, future‐oriented coping, and work–life balance. They highlight that travelers and their organizations should resort to preventive coping to make frequent travel more beneficial.

腾格里沙漠南缘沙层含水量与水分平衡研究

为了揭示腾格里沙漠沙层含水量和水分运移及平衡等科学问题,对甘肃民勤和宁夏中卫不同沙丘进行了含水量研究。结果显示,腾格里沙漠南缘沙层含水量空间变化明显,在垂向上分层清楚,水平方向上流动沙丘的含水量高于半固定和固定沙丘, 沙漠东南缘沙层含水量明显高于西南缘。甘肃民勤沙层含水量高值层段出现在剖面中上部;宁夏中卫毛管水带之上沙层含水量较高,指示沙层水分来自大气降水。研究区沙层水分主要以薄膜水的形式存在,在降水较多的沙漠东南缘出现了沙漠区极少出现的高含量薄膜水。该区沙层水分具正平衡特点,属于沙层水理性质决定的沙漠地区特殊的水分正平衡,这能够较好地解释极端干旱的沙漠区湖泊较多和地下水资源较为丰富的原因。论文还提出了研究区水分运移的两种模式。     

大气颗粒物混合尘溯源解析新方法

针对采用化学质量平衡模型(CMB)进行大气颗粒物源解析时,混合尘源由于与单一尘源存在严重共线性而不能代入模型的问题,首先对混合尘进行源解析,根据解析结果将混合尘分拆为对应的单一尘源,然后与原有的单一尘源共同代入CMB进行源解析,提出了大气颗粒物混合尘溯源解析新方法.将混合尘溯源解析新方法应用于某市的大气颗粒物尘源解析,得到扬尘的贡献率为28.75%,较二重源解析技术的46.3%和二重源解析技术改进方法的38.38%都要低,表明新方法更好地解决了共线源代入CMB出现的问题.受体元素计算值与测量值的比值较二重源解析技术改进方法有更多元素接近1,表明新方法建立的模型更加合理.     

Aqueous free radical chemistry of mercury in the presence of iron oxides and ambient aerosol

The effect of goethite (α-FeOOH), hematite (α-Fe₂0₃) and maghemite (γ-Fe₂0₃) on the aqueous photoreduction of divalent mercury with organic acids (oxalate, formate and acetate) is investigated. Laboratory photochemistry experiments with synthetic iron oxides and simulated sunlight were performed to assess the role of the oxides on the photoreduction. Ambient aerosol was also collected and introduced as the solid phase to compare its effect with that of synthetic oxides. It is observed that the presence of various iron oxides or aerosol particles enhances the photoreduction. It is also found that the hydroxyl radicals produced in the hematite-oxalate systems can re-oxidize the reduced mercury back to Hg(II). Based on the experimental observations, mechanisms responsible for the Hg(II) reduction are proposed. The kinetics of Hg⁰ oxidation by hydroxyl radicals was also studied by a steady-state kinetic technique using nitrate photolysis as the * OH radical source. The second-order rate constant is determined to be 2.0 × 10⁹ M⁻ s⁻¹. The implications of the studied reactions on the atmospheric chemistry of mercury are discussed.
