根系吸水机理研究进展

植物根系除支撑和固定其地上部这一力学功能外的一个重要功能就是从土壤中吸收水分和养分以满足植物地上部生长所需.表征植物根吸水能力的一个重要的水力学参数是水力导度(用单位时间单位面积的水流速率来表示),可在细胞(细胞水力导度)、单根和整株根系水平上来表达,其中单根导度可分为径向导度和轴向导度,仅径向导度反映了单根吸收水分的能力,而轴向导度则反映了植物根系输导水分的能力,但在整株根系水平上则以通过整个根系的水流通量与根木质部和根表土壤间的水势差之比来表示,既包括径向导度也包括轴向导度.近年来,对植物根系吸水或根水…     

Modelling collective foraging by means of individual behaviour rules in honey-bees

An individual-oriented model is constructed which simulates the collective foraging behaviour of a colony of honey-bees, Apis mellifera. Each bee follows the same set of behavioural rules. Each rule consists of a set of conditions followed by the behavioural act to be performed if the conditions are fulfilled. The set of conditions comprises the state of external information available to the bee (e.g. the dancing of other bees) and internal information variables (like memorised location of a food source and homing motivation). The rules are partly observational (i.e. they capture the observable regularities between the present external information and the individual bee's behaviour), and partly involve hypothesised internal-state variables (e.g. abandoning tendency and homing motivation), because no observable (physiological) aspect has as yet been detected in the bee which correlates with changes in the internal motivation. Our aim is to obtain a set of rules that is necessary and sufficient for the generation of the collective foraging behaviour observed in real bees. We simulated an experiment performed by Seeley et al. in which a colony of honey-bees chooses between two nectar sources of different profitabilities which are switched at intervals. A good fit between observed and simulated collective forager patterns was obtained when the model included rules in which the bees (1) relied on the information acquired from previous flights to a source (e.g. profitability and time of day when the source was found), (2) used positional information obtained by attending recruitment dances and (3) did not abandon a (temporarily) deteriorated source too fast or too slowly. The significance of the following issues is discussed: the role of internal and external information, source profitability, the spatial precision of the dance communication, the ability to search for a source after the source position has been transmitted, the tendency to abandon a deteriorated source, and the concepts of scout, recruit, (un)employed forager, and foraging history.

Coal energy conversion with carbon sequestration via combustion in supercritical saline aquifer water

The standard idea for deep saline aquifer sequestration is to separate carbon dioxide from a process stream, compress it, and inject it underground. However, since carbon dioxide is less dense than water, even at the high pressures found in aquifers, it is buoyant and will move towards the surface unless trapped by an impermeable seal. Also, significant energy expenditure is required to separate and compress carbon dioxide, even though neat carbon dioxide is not a desired product. These issues may be addressed by combining the idea of fast dissolution at the surface with supercritical water oxidation (SCWO). By burning coal at high pressure in supercritical water drawn from an aquifer, and then sequestering the entire pre-equilibrated effluent, all carbon from the fuel is captured, as well as all non-mineral coal combustion products including sulfur and metals.A possible block diagram of an SCWO-based electric power plant is proposed, including processes to handle salts from the aquifer brine and minerals from coal. The plant is thermodynamically modeled, using an indirectly fired combined cycle to convert energy from hot combustion products to work. This model estimates the overall thermal efficiency that can be achieved, and reveals unanticipated interactions within the plant that have significant effects on efficiency. The assumptions and results of the model highlight design challenges for an actual system.     

Monitoring effects of a controlled subsurface carbon dioxide release on vegetation using a hyperspectral imager

A hyperspectral imaging system was used to monitor vegetation during a subsurface controlled release of carbon dioxide (CO₂). From August 3 to 10, 2007, 0.3 tons CO₂/day were released through a 70 m horizontal pipe located at a nominal depth of 1.8 m below the surface. Hyperspectral images of alfalfa plants were collected during the controlled release and used along with classification tree analysis to study changes in the reflectance spectra as a function of perpendicular distance from the horizontal pipe. Changes in the reflectance spectra near the red edge (650–750 nm) were observed over the course of the controlled release experiment for plants within a perpendicular distance of 1 m of the release pipe. These results indicate monitoring vegetation over a carbon sequestration site has the potential to allow monitoring of the integrity of the CO₂ storage.     

作业场所职业危害监管监察力量配备研究

职业危害形势严峻与监管力量相对匮乏的矛盾,是我国当前职业危害监管需要解决的问题之一。但是,实现作业场所职业危害的有效监管,应当配备多少数量的监管人员,一直以来缺乏系统的研究论证。本文根据国务院经济普查数据,以及国家统计局公布的有关工业企业的数据,初步探讨了分级监管模式下作业场所职业危害监管力量的配备情况,认为实现作业场所职业危害的有效分级监管,万名工人监管人员数至少达到1．34较为适宜,根据我国当前的工业企业从业人员数,全国范围内宜配备至少18590名职业卫生监管人员。     

全要素能源效率与环境污染关系研究

能源与环境问题已成为世界焦点,回顾文献发现,已有研究大多单独从能源或环境问题进行分析,对能源与环境特别是能源效率与环境污染之间关系的研究较少。能源效率与环境污染之间存在着密切的联系,对两者关系进行更为深入、全面的研究显得十分必要。本文首先利用DEA方法和环境污染治理成本法分别测算了我国1989-2007年的全要素能源效率和环境污染经济损失;在初步评判两者关系的基础上,进一步通过协整和ECM模型得到本文的结论:我国的全要素能源效率与环境污染经济损失之间存在长期均衡关系,前者是后者的Granger原因;同时,全要素能源效率的短期波动对于降低环境污染经济损失具有明显的作用,这种作用大于长期波动的影响。这意味着全要素能源效率的提高对减少环境污染具有重要作用,节能减排目标的实现离不开能源效率的作用。

臭氧对饮用水管网中溶解性有机物的影响

利用生物膜环状反应器模拟配水管网系统,将水厂砂滤池出水经过臭氧氧化后投加氯然后进入该模拟管网,另外把水厂砂滤池出水加氯后通入另一模拟管网作为对照实验。通过对两管网出水余氯、总铁、浊度、溶解性有机物(DOC)、以及消毒副产物三卤甲烷(THMs)、卤乙酸(HAAs)生成情况的测定,研究了饮用水臭氧处理对管网出水水质的影响。单因素方差分析结果表明,两管网出水的余氯、总铁、浊度以及THMs、HAAs含量相差不大,但DOC在臭氧氯管网中消耗较多。同时通过高效凝胶色谱(HPSEC),红外光谱(FTIR)和三维荧光光谱(EEM)表征了不同管网进出水DOC变化,结果表明,臭氧氧化后的管网出水中溶解性有机物荧光光谱中三区富里酸和五区腐植酸荧光峰值(ФⅢ+Ⅴ,n)减小较多,管网出水消毒副产物稍有增加。
