俚岛湾海域砷的分布特征及污染评价

以威海俚岛湾养殖区为研究对象,调查研究了俚岛湾海域表层海水和沉积物中总砷的分布特征,并综合评价了砷的污染状况及潜在生态风险。俚岛湾海域表层海水总砷浓度为1.78~2.78μg/L,平均浓度为2.20μg/L,比大洋水略高,俚岛湾海域海水水质较好,未受到砷污染;海水中砷的季节变化为夏季较高、秋冬季基本稳定、春季最低。俚岛湾海域表层沉积物中砷的平面分布呈现出由近岸向远岸降低的趋势,砷含量的年际变化甚微,基本保持稳定的水平;采用潜在生态风险指数法和重金属质量基准法对沉积物进行评价。评价结果表明,该海域表层沉积物中砷污染水平较低,属于低潜在生态风险。     

生活垃圾焚烧发电厂周边环境二噁英污染水平及人群暴露评估

选取某典型生活垃圾焚烧发电厂为研究对象,监测其周边环境空气、土壤、地下水、农作物等环境介质中二噁英的浓度水平,初步评估周边人群二噁英暴露水平。研究结果表明,该厂周边环境空气、土壤、地下水中二噁英测定值分别为0. 236 pg TEQ/m3～0. 331 pg TEQ/m3、1. 94 ng TEQ/kg～2. 71 ng TEQ/kg、0. 17 pg TEQ/L～0. 26 pg TEQ/L,企业排放的二噁英对周边环境影响较小;成人和儿童在暴露介质中摄入二噁英总量分别为0. 959 pg TEQ/(kg·d)和1. 59 pg TEQ/(kg·d),均低于4 pg TEQ/(kg·d)的标准,经大米和面粉摄入二噁英的量超过总暴露量的90%,提示食物是人群二噁英暴露的主要介质。

Mind the gap in SEA: An institutional perspective on why assessment of synergies amongst climate change mitigation, adaptation and other policy areas are missing

This article takes its point of departure in two approaches to integrating climate change into Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA): Mitigation and adaptation, and in the fact that these, as well as the synergies between them and other policy areas, are needed as part of an integrated assessment and policy response. First, the article makes a review of how positive and negative synergies between a) climate change mitigation and adaptation and b) climate change and other environmental concerns are integrated into Danish SEA practice. Then, the article discusses the implications of not addressing synergies. Finally, the article explores institutional explanations as to why synergies are not addressed in SEA practice. A document analysis of 149 Danish SEA reports shows that only one report comprises the assessment of synergies between mitigation and adaptation, whilst 9,4% of the reports assess the synergies between climate change and other environmental concerns. The consequences of separation are both the risk of trade-offs and missed opportunities for enhancing positive synergies. In order to propose explanations for the lacking integration, the institutional background is analysed and discussed, mainly based on Scott's theory of institutions. The institutional analysis highlights a regulatory element, since the assessment of climate change synergies is underpinned by legislation, but not by guidance. This means that great focus is on normative elements such as the local interpretation of legislation and of climate change mitigation and adaptation. The analysis also focuses on how the fragmentation of the organisation in which climate change and SEA are embedded has bearings on both normative and cultural-cognitive elements. This makes the assessment of synergies challenging. The evidence gathered and presented in the article points to a need for developing the SEA process and methodology in Denmark with the aim to include climate change in the assessments in a more systematic and integrated manner.     

Assessing health impacts in complex eco-epidemiological settings in the humid tropics: Modular baseline health surveys

The quantitative assessment of health impacts has been identified as a crucial feature for realising the full potential of health impact assessment (HIA). In settings where demographic and health data are notoriously scarce, but there is a broad range of ascertainable ecological, environmental, epidemiological and socioeconomic information, a diverse toolkit of data collection strategies becomes relevant for the mainly small-area impacts of interest. We present a modular, cross-sectional baseline health survey study design, which has been developed for HIA of industrial development projects in the humid tropics. The modular nature of our toolkit allows our methodology to be readily adapted to the prevailing eco-epidemiological characteristics of a given project setting. Central to our design is a broad set of key performance indicators, covering a multiplicity of health outcomes and determinants at different levels and scales. We present experience and key findings from our modular baseline health survey methodology employed in 14 selected sentinel sites within an iron ore mining project in the Republic of Guinea. We argue that our methodology is a generic example of rapid evidence assembly in difficult-to-reach localities, where improvement of the predictive validity of the assessment and establishment of a benchmark for longitudinal monitoring of project impacts and mitigation efforts is needed.
