Why geodiversity matters in valuing nature's stage

Geodiversity—the variability of Earth's surface materials, forms, and physical processes—is an integral part of nature and crucial for sustaining ecosystems and their services. It provides the substrates, landform mosaics, and dynamic physical processes for habitat development and maintenance. By determining the heterogeneity of the physical environment in conjunction with climate interactions, geodiversity has a crucial influence on biodiversity across a wide range of scales. From a literature review, we identified the diverse values of geodiversity; examined examples of the dependencies of biodiversity on geodiversity at a site‐specific scale (for geosites <1 km² in area); and evaluated various human‐induced threats to geosites and geodiversity. We found that geosites are important to biodiversity because they often support rare or unique biota adapted to distinctive environmental conditions or create a diversity of microenvironments that enhance species richness. Conservation of geodiversity in the face of a range of threats is critical both for effective management of nature's stage and for its own particular values. This requires approaches to nature conservation that integrate climate, biodiversity, and geodiversity at all spatial scales.     

岩溶槽谷石漠化治理区表层泉水化学特征研究:以重庆酉阳泔溪花椒基地老泉为例

背斜型岩溶槽谷区石漠化治理的关键之一是要厘清地下水资源动态变化特征,尤其要开展在线高分辨率连续动态监测。本文以重庆酉阳龙潭岩溶槽谷石漠化治理区老泉监测站为例,采用PONSEL多参数自动记录仪现场测定和样品室内分析相结合的方法,研究老泉2017年完整水文年的季节和强降雨期间的水化学动态特征,利用主成分分析法探究季节尺度和强降雨期间老泉水化学组分的主要来源。结果表明：（1）在季节尺度上,受雨水稀释作用的影响,雨季泉水pH、电导率、Ca²⁺、HCO₃^-、Mg²⁺低于旱季;土壤受淋溶作用的影响,泉水K⁺、Na⁺、全Mn、Al³⁺、全Fe浓度雨季高于旱季;水化学变化主要受4个主成分影响,累计贡献率为85.53%,但主导要素是水岩作用及土壤元素流失;（2）强降雨期间,石漠化背景下泉水水化学指标对降雨响应迅速,但在植被不同生长状态下各指标差异明显;典型的两次强降雨过程中水化学变化都主要受4个主成分影响,累计贡献率分别为85.63%和85.40%,但主导要素是农业活动和土壤元素流失;（3）花椒树种植后泉水中NO₃^-、SO₄^2-质量浓度较高,且硫酸和硝酸参与岩溶作用过程并对老泉水质造成重要影响。因此,背斜型岩溶槽谷表层泉水化学特征的监测研究,对于槽谷石漠化治理区水资源高效利用具有重要现实意义。     

基于Holt-Winters模型的济南泉域地下水资源保护研究

以济南名泉趵突泉历年的地下水位为研究对象,对2012年5月至2017年11月趵突泉地下水位波动规律进行分析,评价保泉形势,探索保泉供水的有效措施。通过模型的比选,最终确定利用HoltWinters指数平滑加法模型,从时间序列的角度分析预测趵突泉地下水位的变化趋势,并计算出了模型的拟合优度指标和拟合统计量。决定系数R2值为0.897,平稳的R2值为0.627,数值均较大且其余各项拟合优度指标均较好,说明模型的拟合效果整体精度较高。利用模型对2018年趵突泉的地下水位进行了预测并给出了预测值95%的置信区间,预测年平均水位为27.814 m,泉水位波动的峰值为28.291 m、谷值为27.329 m且谷值将出现于2018年的6月份,为近6年来的最低水位值,低于27.6 m的保泉红色警戒线,接近27.01 m的泉水停喷线。预测结果表明:2018年趵突泉将存在潜在停喷的危机,济南市的保泉任务依然严峻。为争取泉水持续喷涌,在此基础上提出了科学保泉建议和节水保泉措施,为济南市评判、预测、调整水系及地下水开采布局提供科学依据。     

The effects on human health and hydrogeochemical characteristics of the Kirkgeçit and Ozancik Hot Springs,Canakkale, Turkey

This investigation was carried out to determine the hydrogeochemical characteristics of the Kirkgeçit and Ozancik hot springs. The study areas are located northeast and southwest of the town of Çan, Çanakkale. During the investigation, geological maps of the hot springs and its surroundings were prepared, and hot waters and rock samples were collected from the study sites. The Paleogene–Neogene aged andesite, trachyandesite, andesitic tuff, silicified tuff and tuffites form the basement rocks in the Ozancik hot spring area. In the Kirkgeçit hot spring area, there are Lower Triassic aged mica and quartz schists at the basement rocks. The unit is covered by limestones and marbles of the same age. They are overlain by Quaternary alluvial deposits. A chemical analysis of the Kirkgeçit hot water indicates that it is rich in SO₄ ^2– (1200.2 mg L^–1), Cl^– (121.7 mg L^–1), HCO₃ ^– (32.5 mg L^–1), Na⁺ (494 mg L^–1), K⁺ (30.2 mg L^–1), Ca²⁺ (102 mg L^–1), Mg²⁺ (15.2 mg L^–1), and SiO₂ (65.22 mg L^–1). Chemical analysis of the Ozancik hot water indicates that it is rich in SO₄ ^2– (575 mg L^–1), Cl^– (193.2 mg L^–1), HCO₃ ^– (98.5 mg L^–1), Na⁺ (315 mg L^–1), K⁺(7.248 mg L^–1), Ca²⁺ (103 mg L^–1), Mg²⁺ (0.274 mg L^–1), and SiO₂(43.20 mg L^–1). The distribution of ions in the hot waters on the Schoeller diagram has an arrangement of r(Na⁺+K⁺)>rCa²⁺>rMg²⁺ and r(SO₄ ^2–)>rCl^–>r(HCO₃ ^–). In addition, the inclusion of Fe²⁺, Cu²⁺, Cr³⁺, Mn²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Hg²⁺ in the hot water samples indicates potential natural inorganic contamination. The water analysis carried out following the ICPMS-200 technique was evaluated according to the World Health Organisation and Turkish Standards. The use and the effects of the hot water on human health are also discussed in the paper.

The use of δ18O as an indicator of vanadium movement in a dormant stratovolcano region

The oxygen isotope (δ¹⁸O) stable water tracer can be a promising new tool for identifying trace metals in volcanoes and their sources. In the present study, the origin of vanadium in water from a spring at the base of Mt. Fuji is examined using δ¹⁸O, a dormant stratovolcano consisting of lava and basalt rock located on the North Pacific Coast of Japan. A comparison of water from the main springs at the foot of the Mt. Fuji volcano indicates that only V, Cr, Mn and Co enrichment could be related to volcanic events, whereas Ni, Cu, Cd and Pb originate from the dissolution of particles of anthropogenic origin from the industrial areas of Fuji and Fujinomiya. The average V concentrations at the mountain sites ranged from 50 to 110 µg L^?1 and from 18 to 47 µg L^?1 in the coastal areas. The δ¹⁸O became depleted at higher elevations and increased in coastal areas as well as in some NO₃^?-contaminated water. Therefore, variations in the dissolved V/δ¹⁸O ratio in springs of the study area occur due to the elevations of their catchments and the increased concentrations of δ¹⁸O from NO₃^? as a contaminant.
