基于数据场和云模型的洪水灾害风险等级评估

根据灾害风险系统的定义以及洪水灾害的特点,用灾情损失与地形危险性的综合作用描述洪水灾害风险。针对研究单元风险的内在联系和等级概念的模糊性、随机性,提出基于数据场和云模型的洪水灾害风险等级评估方法,以期为洪水灾害风险管理提供科学依据。以苏州市和上海市(崇明县除外)为例,首先用数据场对灾情数据进行扩散;再用云模型对地形进行等级划分;最后对两者进行耦合得到该地区的洪水灾害风险等级划分。结果表明:苏州市中心偏北区域和上海市中心区域综合风险等级最高,并向四周呈递减趋势;总体上中部风险等级最高,北部次之,南部最低。

澜沧江沉积物氨氧化及反硝化微生物丰度

为了探究梯级水库开发对河流沉积物中氮循环微生物的影响,本文针对澜沧江流域氨氧化细菌(AOB)、氨氧化古菌(AOA)和nirS型反硝化微生物丰度进行了研究,采集了云南省盐井至橄榄坝19个点位的沉积物样品,测定了研究区域内自然河流、水库河段、重要支流的AOB-amoA、AOA-amoA和nirS基因的丰度,同时测定了沉积物、间隙水及水体理化因子.结果显示:19个点位沉积物AOB-amoA基因丰度范围为0.82×10⁷～4.25×10⁷copies/g,AOA-amoA基因丰度范围为0.83×10⁷～6.87×10⁷copies/g,nirS基因丰度范围为0.72×10⁷～7.32×10⁷copies/g;AOA/AOB介于0.35～2.17之间,AOA在数量上相比于AOB并不占优势.AOA-amoA、AOB-amoA和nirS丰度在自然河段、水库段和支流没有显著差异,说明人工水利设施的建设对氨氧化微生物丰度空间分布并无显著影响.沉积物间隙水氨氮、总磷和总氮是影...     

末次间冰期以来渭河盆地沉积相变化及其影响

渭河盆地南依秦岭、北邻黄土高原,保存了巨厚的风尘河湖相沉积序列,是研究新生代气候环境演化的理想场所.以位于西安凹陷区域的西安市鄠邑区正庄村获取的14 m钻孔岩心作为研究对象,通过与邻近的渭南黄土剖面粒度曲线和全球LR04深海氧同位素曲线对比,构建了岩心序列的年代标尺,利用粒度、磁化率等指标探讨风尘-湖相沉积对风力和水动力的不同响应.对粒度测试结果采用威布尔分布(Weibull-distribution)拟合方法,提取了4个粒度组分指示不同沉积相及变化,结果表明:(1)西安凹陷鄠邑地区在末次间冰期结束时发生了一次沉积相变,由湖泊沉积转向风成沉积;(2)尽管沉积相发生变化,粒度指标对沉积环境变化响应仍然敏感,与黄土和石笋记录可良好对比,揭示出末次间冰期以来渭河盆地沉积环境的显著变化.     

Quantity and activity of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria and their contribution to ammonia oxidation in farmland soil of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau北大核心CSCD

Ammonia oxidation, the first and rate-limiting step of nitrification, is mainly performed by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB). However, the activities of AOA and AOB in soil and their relative contribution to ammonia oxidation are unclear, and whether there is a significant correlation between the quantity of AOA and AOB and the ammonia oxidation rate is also controversial. In this study, quantitative PCR combined with acetylene (C2H2) and 1-octyne inhibition methods were used to determine the quantity and activity of AOA and AOB in wheat, highland barley, and oilseed rape soils in Nyingchi, Lhatse, Sangzhuzi, and Sangri counties on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The results showed that the quantity of AOB ((2.34 ± 0.84) ×105 - (2.65 ± 1.07) ×106 copies g-1 dry soil) was significantly higher than that of AOA ((0.20 ± 0.10) ×104 - (4.02 ± 0.39) ×104 copies g-1 dry soil) in all the soil samples. Soil pH was the key factor affecting the quantity of AOB, and the total phosphorus and ammonium nitrogen in soil were the key factors affecting the quantity of AOA. The rates of ammonia oxidation in the farmland soils of Lhatse (2.42 ± 0.73 mg kg-1 d-1) and Sangzhuzi (3.24 ± 1.15 mg kg-1 d-1) were significantly higher than those in the soils of Nyingchi (1.17 ± 0.43 mg kg-1 d-1) and Sangri counties (0.88 ± 0.57 mg kg-1 d-1). The rates of ammonia oxidation in the farmland soils of Lhatse and Sangzhuzi were dominated by AOB, while those in the farmland soils of Nyingchi and Sangri counties were dominated by AOA. For crops, the ammonia oxidation rates of wheat and oilseed rape soils in all four regions were significantly higher than those of highland barley soil, whereas the activity of AOA and AOB was not influenced by crops. The ratio of nitrogen to phosphorus was the key factor influencing AOA activity, whereas soil pH and total carbon were the main factors influencing AOB activity. Additionally, the quantities of AOA and AOB were not significantly correlated with the total ammonia oxidation rates and AOA and AOB activity. Overall, our study suggests that both AOA and AOB play important roles in ammonia oxidation in farmland soils of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Moreover, it is unreliable to predict the activity of AOA and AOB and their relative contribution to ammonia oxidation directly based on their number of amoA genes, and the activity of AOA and AOB should be directly and accurately measured. These results are important for understanding ammonia nitrogen removal processes, slowing nitrate loss, and reducing the emission of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide in the farmland ecosystem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. © 2022 Science Press.
