华北强地震余震震群应力场“窗口”效应

本文研究了华北最近地震活动期的三次强地震(邢台、海城、唐山)的余震序列,从实际观测资料与国内外的一些实验结果,提出余震震群的出现是在区域应力场增强的背景下余震区应力加强的效应。强震余震震群的起伏,可以作为监视华北地区中强以上地震孕育的“窗口”。文中以“多点场”观点讨论了余震震群与中强以土地震关系,认为强震与中强震在区域应力场中是处于支配与被支配的不同地位。

Macrobenthic community in the Xiaoqing River Estuary in Laizhou Bay, China

The macrobenthic community of the Xiaoqing River Estuary and the adjacent sea waters was investigated in May and November 2008, August 2009, and May and September 2010, respectively. A total of 95 species of macrobenthos were identified in the five cruises and most of them were polychaetes (46.39%), mollusks (28.86%) and crustaceans (20.62%). The Shannon-Wiener index of macrobenthos was lower than 2 in 67% sites. Along the stream channel, estuary and the coastal waters, the species of polychaetes reduced gradually, while the abundance increased at first and then decreased. The abundance was the biggest at regions with salinity of 5–20 in the estuary. The species and abundance of mollusks and crustaceans increased gradually. As for seasonal distribution, the species, abundance and biomass were higher in spring and lower in summer and autumn. Contemporaneously compared with Laizhou Bay and Yellow River Estuary, the species of macrobenthos appeared in the Xiaoqing River Estuary were much less, while the percentage of polychaetes was higher. Abundance and biomass were higher in Xiaoqing River estuary, then consequently followed by Laizhou Bay and Yellow River Estuary. The dominant species in Xiaoqing River Estuary was polychaete, and Layzhou Bay mollusk. The community structure characteristics of macrobenthos in the Xiaoqing River Estuary revealed a significant pollution status in this region.     

Experimental studies on dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) production by four marine microalgae

The production of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) by marine microalgae was investigated to elucidate more on the role of marine phytoplankton in ocean-atmosphere interactions in the global biogeochemical sulfur cycle.Axenic laboratory cultures of four marine microalgae–Isochrysis galbana 8701,Pavlova viridis,Platymonas sp.and Chlorella were tested for DMSP production and conversion into DMS.Among these four microalgae,Isochrysis galbana 8701 and Pavlova viridis are two species of Haptophyta,while Chlorella and Platymonas sp.belong to Chlorophyta.The results demonstrate that the four algae can produce various amounts of DMS(P),and their DMS(P) production was species specific.With similar cell size,more DMS was released by Haptophyta than that by Chlorophyta.DMS and dissolved DMSP (DMSPd) concentrations in algal cultures varied significantly during their life cycles.The highest release of DMS appeared in the senescent period for all the four algae.Variations in DMSP concentrations were in strong compliance with variations in algal cell densities during the growing period.A highly significant correlation was observed between the DMS and DMSPd concentrations in algal cultures,and there was a time lag for the variation trend of the DMS concentrations as compared with that of the DMSPd.The consistency of variation patterns of DMS and DMSPd implies that the DMSPd produced by phytoplankton cells has a marked effect on the production of DMS.In the present study,the authors’ results specify the significant contribution of the marine phytoplankton to DMS(P) production and the importance of biological control of DMS concentrations in oceanic water.     

腐殖酸抑制纳米银对菲律宾蛤仔鳃的氧化胁迫和遗传毒性

为了解DOM与AgNPs的相互作用及其对AgNPs毒性的影响,本文以菲律宾蛤仔为受试生物、以水环境广泛存在腐殖酸(Humic acid,HA)为代表性有机质。通过贝类体内抗氧化系统的生物标志物(过氧化氢酶(Catalase,CAT)、超氧化物歧化酶(Superoxide dismutase,SOD)、金属硫蛋白(Metallothionein,MT)和丙二醛(Malondialdehyde,MDA))的响应,研究了HA对AgNPs生物效应的影响。结果表明,HA显著增加了AgNPs的稳定性,抑制了AgNPs的聚集。AgNPs(20μg·L^-1)暴露3 d后,蛤仔鳃组织中Ag的蓄积显著上升,并随着时间的延长不断升高。AgNPs暴露第3、7天,不同浓度的HA条件下,鳃组织中Ag的蓄积无显著差异,但显著地低于无HA存在的AgNPs暴露组。CAT活性和MDA含量仅在无HA存在的AgNPs暴露组出现显著升高,其余各组之间无显著差异。表征DNA损伤程度的Olive尾矩(OTM)和尾长(TL)在无HA存在的AgNPs暴露组中随时间的延长不断上升。HA显著降低了AgNPs的对鳃组织细胞的遗传毒性。结果表明,HA通过增加AgNPs在介质中的稳定性而显著地抑制了鳃组织对Ag的蓄积,从而减弱了AgNPs对鳃组织的氧化胁迫和遗传毒性。结果证明了有机质含量等环境理化条件对纳米毒性存在显著影响。     

青岛滨海高速公路路面径流金属污染研究

滨海高速公路径流作为沿海城市金属污染源之一受到国内外关注。青岛市青银高速公路路面径流金属Cr、Cu、Zn、Hg及Pb分析表明,青岛高速公路路面径流水质较好,基本符合国家V类水质标准。初期径流水质中污染物浓度较高,随着降雨冲刷强度突然增大,出现"二次冲刷"现象。结合主成分分析推知径流中Cr、Cu、Zn及Cd主要来源于大气沉降,而Hg与Pb主要来源于大气的道路交通污染。     

Spatial distribution and deposition history of nonylphenol and bisphenol A in sediments from the Changjiang River (Yangtze River) Estuary and its adjacent East China Sea

Nonylphenol(NP) and bisphenol A(BPA) are endocrine disruptors causing harmful effects including feminization and carcinogenesis to various organisms,and consequently,their contamination in natural environment has received wide concerns.This study reports the distribution characteristics of NP and BPA in surface sediments and their deposition history based on a dated sediment core in the Changjiang River(Yangtze River) Estuary and its adjacent East China Sea.The contents of NP and BPA in surface sediments ranged from 1.56-35.8 and 0.72-13.2 ng/g(dry mass),respectively,with high values recorded in the two mud zones,the Changjiang River Estuarine Mud Zone and the Zhejiang Coastal Mud Zone.High values in the Zhejiang Coastal Mud Zone suggest the possibility of long distance transport of both contaminants through the Changjiang riverine plume.The contents were not correlated with the distance from the pollution source,indicating other factors including particle deposition rate and sediment grain size obviously affecting the distribution pattern.NP was also detected in a sediment core at layers deposited from the year of 1971 to 2001 with contents of up to 20.9 ng/g(dry mass).The deposition fluxes of NP varied from 0.68 to 17.9 ng/(cm2 · a) with peaks and valleys reflecting the traces of economic development history in China during the previous three decades.BPA was detected at sediment layers deposited from 1973 to 2001 with contents of up to 3.66 ng/g.The fluxes of BPA varied from 0.62 to 3.13 ng/(cm2 · a) showing a similar pattern as NP.The contents of NP and BPA also indicated potential risks on benthic organisms in the study area.     

C and ESR dating of calcrete and gypcrete cores from the Amadeus Basin, Northern Territory, Australia

More than forty calcrete and gypcrete samples from bore holes in the Curtin Springs area of the Amadeus Basin, Central Australia, have been dated by means of the ¹⁴C and ESR techniques. The results indicate that the application of multiple dating techniques to samples from calcrete and gypcrete deposits enables age limits to be expanded and the number of datable material types to be increased with respect to Quaternary studies. The ability of the ¹⁴C and ESR techniques to determine the approximate age of calcrete and gypcrete deposits has been demonstrated.
