水质条件对膜-羧基官能团之间微观作用力的影响特征

为了探讨pH值、离子强度及膜材料对膜-污染物间相互作用力的影响特征,利用自制的典型膜污染物羧基官能团胶体探针,结合原子力显微镜定量考察了羧基官能团与PVDF及EVOH超滤膜间的相互作用力随pH值及离子强度的变化特征.结果表明:带有羧基基体的污染物与PVDF及EVOH超滤膜之间的相互作用力皆随着pH值的增大而减小;但是上述作用力随着离子强度的增加呈现特殊的变化趋势:在离子强度为0~10mmol/L时,膜-带有羧基基体的污染物之间相互作用力随着离子强度的增加而增大;在离子强度为10~500mmol/L时,膜-羧基之间相互作用力随着离子强度的增大而减小.在特定的水质条件下,EVOH-羧基间的作用力远小于PVDF-羧基之间的作用力.     

Wildlife corridors as a connected subgraph problem

Wildlife corridors connect areas of biological significance to mitigate the negative ecological impacts of habitat fragmentation. In this article we formalize the optimal corridor design as a connected subgraph problem, which maximizes the amount of suitable habitat in a fully connected parcel network linking core habitat areas, subject to a constraint on the funds available for land acquisition. To solve this challenging computational problem, we propose a hybrid approach that combines graph algorithms with Mixed Integer Programming-based optimization. We apply this technique to the design of corridors for grizzly bears in the U.S. Northern Rockies, illustrating the underlying computational complexities by varying the granularity of the parcels available for acquisition. The approach that is introduced is general and can be applied to other species or other similar problems, such as those occurring in social networks.     

EFFECTS OF LAND COVER AND GEOLOGY ON STREAM CHEMISTRY IN WATERSHEDS OF CHESAPEAKE BAY1

ABSTRACT: We measured the base‐flow stream chemistry in all the major physiographic provinces of the Chesapeake Bay drainage basin. The spatial variation of stream chemistry was closely related to differences in geology and land cover among the sampled watersheds. Some stream chemistry variables were strongly affected by geological settings in the watersheds while others were more influenced by land cover. The effects of land cover differed among chemical constituents and regions. Concentrations of Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, pH, total alkalinity, and conductivity were mainly functions of carbonate bedrock, especially in the Great Valley. Nitrate‐N and total dissolved N were closely related to cropland and increased as the percentage of cropland increased. The rate of increase varied from region to region with the highest in the Piedmont. Na⁺ and Cl^? were mainly affected by the percentage of developed area in a watershed, especially in the Coastal Plain and Piedmont. We observed no significant effects of region or land cover on species of phosphorus because samples were collected under base flow conditions and only dissolved forms were measured. Dissolved silicate (DSi) was not related to any other water chemistry variables. DSi increased as developed area decreased and cropland increased in the Coastal Plain, but these patterns were reversed in the Piedmont. There was no consistent pattern in the spatial variation of land cover effects on the reduced forms of N, dissolved organic P, dissolved organic matter, and K⁺.     

A foundation for developing a methodology for social network sampling

Researchers are increasingly turning to network theory to understand the social nature of animal populations. We present a computational framework that is the first step in a series of works that will allow us to develop a quantitative methodology of social network sampling to aid ecologists in their social network data collection. To develop our methodology, we need to be able to generate networks from which to sample. Ideally, we need to perform a systematic study of sampling protocols on different known network structures, as network structure might affect the robustness of any particular sampling methodology. Thus, we present a computational tool for generating network structures that have user-defined distributions for network properties and for key measures of interest to ecologists. The user defines the values of these measures and the tool will generate appropriate network randomizations with those properties. This tool will be used as a framework for developing a sampling methodology, although we do not present a full methodology here. We describe the method used by the tool, demonstrate its effectiveness, and discuss how the tool can now be utilized. We provide a proof-of-concept example (using the assortativity measure) of how such networks can be used, along with a simulated egocentric sampling regime, to test the level of equivalence of the sampled network to the actual network. This contribution is part of the special issue “Social Networks: new perspectives” (Guest Editors: J. Krause, D. Lusseau and R. James).     

黄河下游地区河水主要离子和锶同位素的地球化学特征

对黄河下游地区河水主要阴阳离子、锶元素及其同位素组成进行了分析.结果发现其水化学组成主要以Ca~(2+),Na~+,HCO_3~-和SO_4~(2-)离子为主,分别占阴阳离子组成的75%以上.干流与支流间在化学组成上存在显著差异,黄河干流的SO_4~(2-),NO_3~-和Cl~-具有共同的来源,而支流河水中的SO_4~(2-),NO_3~-和Cl~-来源不同.黄河下游具有较高的锶含量及较低的锶同位素组成,锶含量变化范围在0.0429 mg·l~(-1)-0.936mg·l~(-1)之间,平均含量为0.394 mg·l~(-1),锶同位素组成变化范围在0.70986-0.71139之间,平均值为0.71118,其中黄河人海口的锶同位素组成(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr=0.70986)与现代海水锶同位素比值(0.70916)相近,表明其锶同位素组成受海水作用影响较大.对主要元素、微量元素锶及其同位素组成分析研究发现,黄河下游地区河水锶同位素组成主要源于蒸发盐岩和碳酸盐岩的风化溶解作用,而人类活动的影响相对较小.由锶同位素平衡方程计算得出,黄河下游地区河水锶同位素组成由大气降水和岩石风化作用混合而成,其中大气降水对黄河下游地区~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr的贡献率约为30%,而岩石风化对其贡献率约为70%.     

土壤吸附菲的灰色关联分析

在分析吸附机理研究方法的基础上,提出了一种判别吸附机理与模型的新方法.从影响吸附的诸因素入手,用灰色关联分析方法计算了不同颗粒粒径(26.9～38.9 μm)、SOC(8.85～17.15mg/g)和CEC(12.49～38.74 cmol/kg)的6种土壤吸附菲的反应中,SOC、CEC及颗粒粒径对吸附量的影响.结果表明,各影响因素的重要性顺序为:颗粒粒径＞SOC＞CEC;表面吸附理论是土壤吸附菲的主要吸附机理,分配理论次之.还讨论了描述此反应的吸附模型,认为多端元反应模型能较好地解释土壤吸附菲的反应.最后得到了一种判定土壤对有机污染物吸附机理与模型的数学方法,对机理研究有一定的指导意义.

石油化工装置火灾灭火救援力量需求计算模型

消防用水流量的确定是灭火救援力量需求分析的关键,也是准确调集力量到达火灾现场实施灭火救援的前提和基础。针对《石油化工企业设计防火规范》(GB50160-2008)对石油化工装置消防用水流量的规定存在比较宽泛和模糊的问题,借鉴国外的一般做法,通过分析化工工艺装置的火灾危险性,确定石油化工装置的火灾爆炸危险性等级;再根据火灾爆炸危险性等级和装置的规模,分级确定石油化工装置一次灭火的消防用水流量;进而建立了一种基于火灾爆炸危险性分析的石油化工装置灭火救援力量需求计算模型。该模型的建立为科学准确地调集石油化工装置火灾灭火救援力量提供了重要决策依据。     

A Comparison of Loch Chemistry from 1955 and 1999 in the Cairngorms,N.E. Scotland

The Cairngorms in north-east Scotland is remote from pollutant sources although it currently receives ca. 10 kg ha¹ yr¹ S and ca. 11 kg ha¹ yr¹ N deposition from the atmosphere.In 1955, 15 lochs (lakes) at a range of altitudes were sampled and analysed for major ion concentrations. A new survey of these and an additional 23 lochs and their catchment soils was conducted in 1999 to determine the impact of acid deposition, and the changes in loch chemistry since the 1955 survey. The bedrock geology of this region has a strong influence on the loch chemistry. Surface waters were generally more acidic in high altitude areas due to predominantly poorly buffered, thin alpine soils developed on granitic parent material (mean acid neutralising capacity (ANC) for 23 lochs = 30 eq L¹). At lower altitudes where the geology is dominated by Dalradian metamorphic rocks surface waters are comparatively base rich and have higher ANC (mean ANC for 15 lochs = 157 eq L¹). Surface water nitrate concentrations show a negative relationship with soil C:N status, in that higher nitrate only occurs at low soil C:N ratios. A comparison of data for 1955 and 1999 shows that sulphate concentrations are significantly lower (67.8 and 47.5 eq L¹, respectively), and pH has improved (pH 5.6 and 5.9) in response to decreased S deposition since the mid 1970s. However, mean nitrate concentrations were found to increase from 2.48 >eq L¹ in 1955 to 5.65 eq L¹ in 1999. Differences in the sampling and laboratory methods from 1955 and 1999 are acknowledged in the interpretation of data.
