SUMMER LOW FLOWS IN NEW ENGLAND DURING THE 20TH CENTURY1

ABSTRACT: High springtime river flows came earlier by one to two weeks in large parts of northern New England during the 20th Century. In this study it was hypothesized that late spring/early summer recessional flows and late summer/early fall low flows could also be occurring earlier. This could result in a longer period of low flow recession and a decrease in the magnitude of low flows. To test this hypothesis, variations over time in the magnitude and timing of low flows were analyzed. To help understand the relation between low flows and climatic variables in New England, low flows were correlated with air temperatures and precipitation. Analysis of data from 23 rural, unregulated rivers across New England indicated little evidence of consistent changes in the timing or magnitude of late summer/early fall low flows during the 20th Century. The interannual variability in the timing and magnitude of the low flows in northern New England was explained much more by the interannual variability in precipitation than by the interannual variability of air temperatures. The highest correlation between the magnitude of the low flows and air temperatures was with May through November temperatures (r =?0.37, p= 0.0017), while the highest correlation with precipitation was with July through August precipitation (r = 0.67, p > 0.0001).     

污染场地土壤重金属污染空间特征分析—以某搬迁电镀厂为例

以某搬迁电镀厂为例,根据污染场地调查报告内的采样数据,按照相关的污染场地污染标准筛选出污染的重金属类别,利用反距离权重法分析重金属在研究区的分布特征,运用莫兰指数进行空间关联分析,运用半变异函数分析重金属污染整体的空间结构和趋势,以探究污染场地的重金属污染空间特征。结果表明：研究区土壤中Ni、Cr、Zn、Cu浓度超过土壤背景值,其最高浓度采样点的风险标准限值倍数分别为9.55、1.35、5.94、10.67;Cu、Zn的浓度在场地范围内东西、南北方向上均呈倒U型趋势,中间高四周低;Ni、Cr浓度在空间分布特征较为相似,高值区域位于场地的东北边界处;4种超标重金属的空间特征差异较大,但均存在聚集特征。

大亚湾海洋生物体重金属含量与变化趋势分析

根据2001年11月大亚湾15个调查站、20个生物种类共计63个生物样品的Cu、Pb、Cd和Hg含量检测结果,阐述了大亚湾近期海洋经济种类生物体的重金属含量水平。结果表明：鱼类、蟹类、虾类和头足类生物体重金属含量分别为：Cu0．16～11．85、Pb0．17～0．54、Cd0．02～0．25和Hg0．007～0．087mg／kg。虾蟹和蟹类体中Cu、Pb、Cd和Hg含量最高,鱼类最低,头足类居中;本调查结果除Pb的含量略高于1992年的调查结果外,Cu、Cd和Hg的含量略低于或相当于10年前的调查水平：与中华人民共和国农业行业标准“无公害食品：水产品有毒有害物质限量”衡量,目前大亚湾鱼类、虾、蟹类和头足类生物体中Cu、Pb、Cd和Hg的平均含量均未超标准,经济种类生物体重金属安全卫生质量尚好。     

2006~2019年珠三角地区臭氧污染趋势

研究基于2006~2019年粤港澳珠江三角洲区域空气监测网络数据,利用Mann-Kendall检验法和Sen斜率法等统计方法计算了珠三角不同区域臭氧年际变化情况,并分析了变化的原因.结果表明：①2006~2019年珠三角平均臭氧浓度上升趋势显著（P<0.05）,平均增长速率为0.80 μg·（m³·a）^-1.2016年之后,臭氧平均增长速率为2.08 μg·（m³·a）^-1,臭氧浓度增速加快.②珠三角臭氧浓度变化趋势有明显的空间差异和季节差异.中部地区臭氧年均浓度增加趋势显著,外围区域臭氧增加趋势不显著;臭氧增加趋势主要集中在夏季,其他季节变化趋势不显著.③珠三角臭氧变化趋势是由前体物和气象条件共同造成的,特别与NO_x的浓度变化密切相关.2006~2019年珠三角中部区域NO₂浓度明显下降,滴定效应减弱导致臭氧浓度增加;边缘地区NO₂浓度变化较小,臭氧浓度未发生明显的改变.④随着前体物浓度的变化,珠三角臭氧生成敏感区的特征正在发生改变,VOCs控制区面积不断减少,协同控制区和NO_x控制区面积逐渐增加,区域臭氧污染防治需要加强对前体物的协同控制.     

Characteristics and recent trends of sulfur dioxide at urban, rural, and background sites in North China: Effectiveness of control measures

SO₂ measurements made in recent years at sites in Beijing and its surrounding areas are performed to study the variations and trends of surface SO₂ at different types of sites in Northern China. The overall average concentrations of SO₂ are (16.8 ± 13.1) ppb, (14.8 ± 9.4) ppb, and (7.5 ± 4.0) ppb at China Meteorological Administration (CMA, Beijing urban area), Gucheng (GCH, relatively polluted rural area, 110 km to the southwest of Beijing urban area), and Shangdianzi (SDZ, clean background area, 100 km to the northeast of Beijing urban area), respectively. The SO₂ levels in winter (heating season) are 4-6 folds higher than those in summer. There are highly significant correlations among the daily means of SO₂ at different sites, indicating regional characteristics of SO₂ pollution. Diurnal patterns of surface SO₂ at all sites have a common feature with a daytime peak, which is probably caused by the downward mixing and/or the advection transport of SO₂-richer air over the North China Plain. The concentrations of SO₂ at CMA and GCH show highly significant downward trends (-4.4 ppb/yr for CMA and -2.4 ppb/yr for GCH), while a less significant trend (-0.3 ppb/yr) is identified in the data from SDZ, reflecting the character of SDZ as a regional atmospheric background site in North China. The SO₂ concentrations of all three sites show a significant decrease from period before to after the control measures for the 2008 Olympic Games, suggesting that the SO₂ pollution control has long-term effectiveness and benefits. In the post-Olympics period, the mean concentrations of SO₂ at CMA, GCH, and SDZ are (14.3 ± 11.0) ppb, (12.1 ± 7.7) ppb, and (7.5 ± 4.0) ppb, respectively, with reductions of 26%, 36%, and 13%, respectively, compared to the levels before. Detailed analysis shows that the differences of temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction were not the dominant factors for the significant differences of SO₂ between the pre-Olympics and post-Olympics periods. By extracting the data being more representative of local or regional characteristics, a reduction of up to 40% for SO₂ in polluted areas and a reduction of 20% for regional SO₂ are obtained for the effect of control measures implemented for the Olympic Games.
