长江上游地区不同土地利用方式对山地灾害的敏感性分析--以金沙江一级支流小江流域为例

长江上游是我国山地灾害异常活跃区,其频繁活动与该区域特殊的自然条件和人类经济活动密切相关。从自然和人文交叉最密切的领域——土地利用及其变化入手,选择区内山地灾害频繁活动区——金沙江一级支流小江流域为典型研究区,通过定量分析不同坡度土地利用方式对山地灾害的综合敏感性,发现易致灾的土地利用方式依次为：道路建设用地和工矿用地、>15°的旱地、>15°低盖度草地和人工修建的蓄水区、城市建设用地、>8°的裸岩地、>25°的滩地、>35°的高盖度草地,并根据敏感值的大小进行了敏感性区划。研究成果对规划土地利用方式、布局水土保持工程等具有一定的参考意义。     

基于Sentinel-1A极化SAR数据与面向对象方法的山区地表覆被分类

地表覆被分类对国土资源调查评估及全球变化具有基础性和关键性意义,但山区由于地形和云雾等的影响,可利用光学遥感影像和其他资源十分稀缺。因此,论文以渝东南山区为研究区,基于Sentinel-1A极化合成孔径雷达（SAR）数据,通过系列预处理,得到后向散射系数值,同时对各类地物的VV/VH极化后向散射系数、纹理、高程和坡度等特征值统计分析,综合这些特征值运用面向对象分类方法对单时相与多时相SAR数据进行地表覆被分类,最后将这两种分类方法与Landsat 8 OLI数据分类作对比。研究表明：1）在同时运用面向对象分类方法的前提下,单时相SAR数据分类和Landsat 8 OLI数据分类精度相当,多时相SAR数据面向对象分类精度最高,总精度为85.65%,Kappa系数为0.829 9;2）与光学数据相比,SAR数据对阔叶林、人工建筑提取有优势,精度提高了10%以上,多时相特征有利于耕地和针阔混交林提取,分类精度比单时相提高了9%左右;3）研究区土地覆被类型以林地为主,占总面积的42.68%,耕地、草灌次之,人工建筑、草地与河流占地面积较少。     

Park gazettement and integrated conservation and development as factors in community conflict at Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Uganda

Conflicts between protected-area managers and local people are common, but the drivers of conflict are rarely analyzed. This limits opportunities to identify strategies that reduce conflict and the magnitude of resulting threats to conservation. Integrated conservation and development (ICD) was adopted at Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Uganda, to reduce conflict during gazettement of the national park, but the success of this approach remains contested. We retrieved documents of conflict written by park staff and local people from 1986 through 2000 (before, during, and after gazettement). We extracted data on 48 incidences of violent conflict and categorized them by gazettement period, area, instigator, and type to undertake a historical analysis of the triggers of violent conflict at Bwindi. Before and during gazettement, local villagers instigated most of the conflict incidents when law-enforcement efforts sought to halt commercial activities within Bwindi. No conflict arose from the arrest of villagers collecting subsistence resources during these periods. After gazettement, prohibitions on commercial activities continued to drive conflict even though villagers collecting subsistence resources were arrested more frequently than before gazettement, and local attitudes toward the park had improved following receipt of ICD benefits. Law-enforcement efforts targeted commercial activities to reduce this threat to Bwindi's mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei), although the activities remained important income sources for people in villages near Bwindi. Losing commercial income following gazettement therefore appeared to be their primary motivation for instigating conflict with park rangers. Prohibitions on subsistence resource use triggered conflict less often. Our use of typologies for a multivariate conflict analysis demonstrates that by identifying differences between effects of conservation as drivers of conflict, conflict analysis can enable a more strategic deployment of conflict-resolution measures that could further conservation efforts. At Bwindi targeting ICD toward individuals who lost benefits from commercial activities may strengthen the role of ICD in conflict resolution and conservation.     

基于DEM的山地丘陵区土地利用/覆被研究——以青海湖流域为例

研究地形对土地利用空间分布格局的影响,对探讨不同地貌部位自然因素和人文因素在土地利用变化过程中的作用具有重要意义。论文以青海湖流域为例,对比各土地利用类型的投影面积与地表真实面积的差异,并从地形(高程、坡度、坡向)角度分析了流域内土地利用的空间分布格局。结果表明:流域投影面积与地表真实面积相差754.79 km²。耕地、居民地、水域、沙地主要分布在3 500 m以下,且坡度小于2°的平地上,耕地和居民地多分布在南坡和西南坡上;林地主要分布在3 500~4 000 m且坡度多在6~25°的缓地和斜坡上,各坡向分布较均匀;草地主要分布在4 500 m以下且坡度小于25°的坡地上;沼泽多分布在3 500~4 500 m且坡度小于25°的河源地区,多分布在北坡和东北坡上;其它用地主要分布在4 000~4 500 m的坡度较大的斜坡或陡坡上。随高度、坡度增加,土地利用程度综合指数呈下降趋势;土地利用综合指数在坡向上呈现:平地＞阳坡＞阴坡。说明地形在很大程度上影响着青海湖流域的土地利用分布,且这种影响比较符合当地的自然规律和社会经济规律。

Mercury and Organochlorine Contamination in Brown Trout (Salmo Trutta) and Arctic Charr (Salvelinus Alpinus) from High Mountain Lakes in Europe and the Svalbard Archipelago

High concentration of Hg, less volatile PCB congeners and p,p-DDE in Arctic charr from an arctic lake was mainly causedby biomagnification in the food chain where cannibalism was thedriving force. We suggest that low sediment fluxes of Hg, low net production of methyl mercury, and short food chains excludingpiscivory explain the low levels of Hg in the invertebrate feeding fish population in five European high mountain lakes.Concentrations of less volatile PCB congeners in insectivorous fish populations from the European high mountain lakes were mainly influenced by fish age and atmospheric deposition, indicated by the sediment inventory. Atmospheric deposition influenced by local sources may explain the higher concentrationsof pesticides (p,p-DDT, p,p-DDE and -HCH) observedin fish from the Pyrenees compared to the other sites. Theconcentrations of Hg and organochlorines did not exceedthe guidelines for fish consumption, except for Hg levelsin the oldest fish from the arctic lake.     

Species Composition of Freshwater Invertebrates in Relation to Chemical and Physical Factors in High Mountains in Soutwestern Norway

The composition of benthic invertebrates was investigated in three Norwegian alpine watersheds during the period 1991–1997. The watersheds represented an environmental gradient in chemical factors. The Kvenna watershed was relatively well buffered, Lake Øvre Neådalsvatn was poorly buffered, but receives low inputs of atmospheric pollution while Lake Stavsvatn has low buffering capacity and receives larger inputs of acidifying components. Qualitative samples were taken in the inlet rivers, lake littoral zone, lake outlet and in the outlet rivers of the lakes for analyses of species composition. In Ø. Neådalsvatn the water chemical data showed strong seasonal variations with waters of low ionic content during snowmelt and summer, while increased ion concentrations build up during winter. The time of ice break and/or water temperature rise during the growing season affected the life cycle of Siphlonurus lacustris and Parameletus chelifer. Even small changes in pH or ANC seemed to have a strong effect on Baetis rhodani. In the Kvenna watershed eight very sensitive species were found at sites with pH 6.5, Ca 1.2 mg L^-1 and LAl < 10 eq L^-1. Only two highly sensitive species, B. rhodani and Capnia sp. were recorded when pH was 6, concentration of calcium 0.8 mg L^-1 and low labile aluminium < 10 eq L^-1. None of the highly sensitive species occurred in Stavsvatn, a formerly acidified area, where LAl concentrations ranged between 25–40 eq L^-1. Low ionic content and elevated concentrations of labile aluminium are suggested to exclude sensitive invertebrates in alpine lakes. Synergistic effects of dilute water and harsh climate are assumed to increase sensitivity of invertebrates to acid water. Global warming will result in higher precipitation and more snow in the west Norwegian alpine area. This will shorten the growing season, increase the amount of dilute water and consequently threaten invertebrate species living close to their tolerance limits.     

Is Shennongjia a Suitable Site for Reintroducing Giant Panda: An Appraisal on Food Supply

The giant panda was found on Mount Shennongjia in Central China for thousands of years but vanished in the late 19th century. The possibility for reintroducing the giant panda in Shennongjia is discussed in terms of food availability, carrying capacity, and predicted bamboo flowering. Three species (Fargesia spathacea, F. murielae, and Yushania confusa) are considered the preferred forage bamboos, which could feed 193–223 giant pandas. However, in 1879–1888 these three species synchronously flowered and died back. In the past, such bamboo flowering usually forced the panda to migrate to a new habitat where forage bamboos were available. But since the 19th century, Shennongjia has become separated from other panda habitats by densely populated agricultural zones. Multi-species flowering of the forage bamboo and isolating of the habitat might caused the extinct of the giant panda in Shennongjia. If the flowering cycle of the bamboo is genetically fixed, the next synchronous flowering of two staple food species (F. spathacea and F. murielae) may occur in 2436–2439. It means that the food supply is dependable in Shennongjia for reintroducing the giant panda before 2436.
