CLIMATE CHANGE AND NATURAL HAZARDS IN NORTHERN CANADA: INTEGRATING INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVES WITH GOVERNMENT POLICY

A study of the relationship between natural hazards and climate change in the international context provides the background for a discussion of the expected changes. In the context of this global discussion, this paper reviews the current perspectives of those natural hazards that are likely to be influenced by climate change, using northern Canada as a regional case study. The northern implications of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change are examined, including the status of climate change action by the northern territorial governments, the evolving role of indigenous people, and the responsibility for climate change impacts. The difficulties surrounding natural hazards research in remote locations, and the approaches of indigenous people to natural hazards are then presented. The paper concludes with a suggested policy approach for climate change and natural hazards in northern Canada, underscoring the need for more comprehensive adaptive strategies to complement the current tendency to focus on the mitigation of greenhouse gases produced in this region.     

饮用水反硝化脱氮方法研究

为去除饮用水中的硝酸盐氮(NO3ˉ-N)，采用上流式厌氧污泥床(UASB)反应器和固定化微生物进行异养反硝化；自制固定化反硝化菌涂层电极和生物电化学脱氮装置，并用于自养反硝化。试验结果表明。若以甲醇为碳源。当碳氮比(C／N)≥1．o时，室温下经UASB处理4h，NO3ˉ-N去除率为97．7％；若以乙酸为碳源。当C／N≥1．0时，30C下经固定化微生物处理6h，N03ˉ-N去除率为98．6％；在无外加碳源的条件下处理东湖现场水样，30C下经60h后。N03ˉ-N去除率达93．5％。生物电化学脱氮装置可迅速建立自养反硝化菌所需的厌氧环境，水样在室温下经72h处理，脱氮率达96．3％。     

混合填充体系对铬渣中六价铬的阻留作用

以铬渣和粉煤灰为混合填充体系的主要填料，采用柱子淋洗法，通过改变混合填料的配比来研究其对铬渣中Cr(Ⅵ)的阻留作用。试验结果表明，各种混合填充体系对Cr(Ⅵ)均有一定程度的阻留作用，其中I—5校对Cr(Ⅵ)的阻留固定效果最佳，淋出液中Cr(Ⅵ)的质量分数为0．删％，相对阻留效果达94．53％。     

Developmental Processes, Changing Lifestyle and Traditional Wisdom: Analyses from Western Himalaya

Traditional knowledge and practices are important in prudent resource use and biodiversity conservation. The implications of modernization and changing lifestyle are discussed in the context of agriculture and resource use, the two sectors in which maximum modernization has occurred. The information was gathered through observations and structured interviews over three years (July 1996 to July 1999) of field work in the western Himalaya. It was observed that forest based subsistence agriculture has given way to the market dependant cash crop cultivation. That apart from loss of genetic diversity, has also resulted in the degradation of forests. The use of wild plants in the day-to-day activities has also declined and dependence on high value market products has increased. Currently, wild plants are used only if no other cheap substitute is available in the market or if the use is economically beneficial to the people. Thus, the knowledge gathered through ages of experience is eroding because of the activities geared for short-term economic benefits which, in long run, may not be sustainable.     

磁选柱在矿山磁选尾矿和硫铁矿烧渣处理中的应用

介绍了磁选柱的结构、分选原理、分选过程及其在处理矿山磁选尾矿和硫铁矿烧渣方面的应用。用磁选柱精选磁铁矿尾矿，得到的精矿品位大于66％；用磁选柱精选硫铁矿烧渣，得到的精矿品位大于65％。硫的质量分数降至0．84％。     

中国可持续发展与国家安全文化战略的新对策

“可持续发展”战略的实质是社会、经济发展与资源、环境相协调的一种发展模式。值得注意，这一人类社会发展模式中跨世纪重大转变的策略，尚未引起安全与减灾科技界的普遍关注，不仅在安全减灾战略研究中很少涉及，严重的是它阻碍了安全减灾诸领域跨世纪及决策课题研究的深度，造成与国际接轨进程缓慢。为此，立足可持续发展思路，并以全新视角、系统地讨论适宜安全减灾文化战略的总体对策，可望能为中国二十一世纪安全保障及科技发展提供科学指南

地球系统科学提出前我国科学界的某些思维

列举了在1988年美国提出"地球系统科学"前我国学者在该领域的某些思维:人与天地相应的观点,东亚大陆磁异常与我国人群健康关系的观点,天地生三位一体的观点,地球表层学的观点以及灾害系统的观点等.这些观点虽不如"地球系统科学"着眼于全球整体,但也包括了很大的系统,且不空洞.     

对排污权交易的现实思考

排污权交易作为一种制度,在我国尚未完全建立.在准市场机制调整之下的排污权交易市场具有比现行排污收费制度更合理之处.排污权交易制度的目的在于逐步减少污染排放,而非刺激排污.其具有的激励和资源配置功能,不仅能较好地控制排污总量,还能提供更丰富的控制污染的方法和途径.公众甚至可以直接参与对环境的管理.本文作者试图从经济学和竞争法的角度对排污权交易的现实问题作一浅显分析.
