美国飓风暴潮预报

美国国家天气局已发展了一种飓风暴潮模式,即SLOSH模式,用其计算飓风暴潮,给定风暴资料,做为输入参数。这个数值模式把动力海岸线、由风暴引起的洪水漫滩、次网格特征具体化,如障碍物、障碍物之间的缺口、海水沿可变宽度河道的一维流动。SLOSH模式已被用于墨西哥湾沿岸美国的大部分地区和大西洋海岸常遭飓风袭击的区域。本文提供了模式使用的情况和对于飓风暴潮预报的某些局限性。SLOSH模式应用的一些特例取自1985年Elena飓风。 SLOSH模式除了用于实时风暴潮预报外,还广泛用于飓风防汛疏散计划。这个模式用几百个假想的飓风进行运算,是依据区域气候学来选择所计算的飓风,对每个预想的风暴,模式计算出淹水范围,把这些淹水类型结合起来,可帮助确定一个区域遭飓风袭击的程度。同时,模式计算的风,可帮助规划人员确定疏散时路线,是否由于大风而阻塞。联邦和地方政府机构把这些息信与人口研究和道路能力估计结合起来,制定出一种综合的疏散计划。这种计划的成果之一是“疏散时间”——当飓风来临时沿海地区为了安全疏散需要提前撤离的时间。     

粉红色红拟抱球虫在冲绳海槽区的发现及地层意义

近年来,我们在冲绳海槽区进行大量工作.本文就Z14-6孔(27°07′N127°27′E)首次发现粉红色红拟抱球虫,及稳定同位素测定,进行对比研究,证明了Thompson等1979年所提出的粉红色拟抱球虫在印度-太平洋海域灭绝时代在距今120000年左右的观点.     

碳同位素质谱法探讨现代海洋有机沉积物来源

本文用NUCLIDE RMS 6-60质谱仪测定了长江口及邻近海区(北纬30°06′至31°15′,东经122°30′至124°30′)表层沉积物中有机碳稳定同位素组成(δ~(13)C为-23.6×10~(-3)—-21.3×10~(-3))、有机碳含量(0.4—0.1％),溶剂可提取有机物浓度及有机C/N比值。结果表明,从有机地球化学角度解释并证实了其他地学家在该区域的研完成果,即东海陆架泥质沉积物主要由陆源悬浮物和海洋浮游生物体混合组成,长江入海物质随着远离长江口而递减,大部分陆源悬浮物向东南运移,并沉积在东经123°以西的长江口区。     

重金属对海洋围隔生态系中初级生产力的影响

1985年4月,中国和加拿大科学家首次在厦门合作进行添加重金属(Cu,Hg,Zn,Pb,Cd)的围隔生态系实验,实验是在海边大水池内的塑料袋中进行,实验结果说明低水平(ppb)混合重金属对浮游植物的影响首先表现在对光合作用速率的抑制作用,以及在浓度较低的情况下可能引起的种群演替现象,本文还阐述了颗粒有机碳(POC)和颗粒有机氮(PON)与初级生产力的相关性.     

Environmental consequence analyses of fish farm emissions related to different scales and exemplified by data from the Baltic--a review

The aim of this work is to review studies to evaluate how emissions from fish cage farms cause eutrophication effects in marine environments. The focus is on four different scales: (i) the conditions at the site of the farm, (ii) the local scale related to the coastal area where the farm is situated, (iii) the regional scale encompassing many coastal areas and (iv) the international scale including several regional coastal areas. The aim is to evaluate the role of nutrient emissions from fish farms in a general way, but all selected examples come from the Baltic Sea. An important part of this evaluation concerns the method to define the boundaries of a given coastal area. If this is done arbitrarily, one would obtain arbitrary results in the environmental consequence analysis. In this work, the boundary lines between the coast and the sea are drawn using GIS methods (geographical information systems) according to the topographical bottleneck method, which opens a way to determine many fundamental characteristics in the context of mass balance calculations. In mass balance modelling, the fluxes from the fish farm should be compared to other fluxes to, within and from coastal areas. Results collected in this study show that: (1) at the smallest scale (<1 ha), the "footprint" expressing the impact areas of fish cage farm often corresponds to the size of a "football field" (50-100 m) if the annual fish production is about 50 ton, (2) at the local scale (1 ha to 100 km2), there exists a simple load diagram (effect-load-sensitivity) to relate the environmental response and effects from a specific load from a fish cage farm. This makes it possible to obtain a first estimate of the maximum allowable fish production in a specific coastal area, (3) at the regional scale (100-10,000 km2), it is possible to create negative nutrient fluxes, i.e., use fish farming as a method to reduce the nutrient loading to the sea. The breaking point is to use more than about 1.1 g wet weight regionally caught wild fish per gram feed for the cultivated fish, and (4) at the international scale (>10,000 km2) related to the Baltic Proper, the contribution from fish farms to the overall nutrient fluxes are very small. We have also given two case-studies at the local scale where the impact of the fish farm emissions are greatest and the idea is to identify coastal areas unsuitable and suitable for fish cage farms and the reasons why. It should also be stressed that the results presented here are exemplified using emissions from fish farms, but that the underlying principles to evaluate the ecosystem effects of nutrient discharges from point source emissions are valid in a wider and more general perspective.     

21世纪的海洋矿产资源

本文简述了在对地球过程的认识和联合国《海洋法》框架发展前提下的海洋非燃料矿产。在板块构造理论出现以前，洋盆被看成是被动的容体，接纳陆地风化物质形成重金属、宝石砂矿和一些化学沉淀矿床(磷矿)。板块构造认识到大洋板块边界是块状硫化物的物质来源，与陆缘物质一起形成锰结核、富钴铁锰结壳及相应的化能合成生态系统。就海洋矿产总体而言，海水淡化产生的淡水是最重要的资源，因为它是生命必须的物质，在陆地其消耗超过了补充。     

Residues of 14C-4n-nonylphenol in mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) oocytes and embryos during dietary exposure of mature females to this xenohormone

In order to assess in fish the maternal transfer of alkylphenolic compounds to the progeny, the identification and quantification of the labelled compounds present in oocytes and embryos was conducted after dietary exposure of mature female mosquitofish to 14C-4n-nonylphenol during vitellogenesis and embryogenesis respectively. Radioactivity found in bile and liver extracts accounted for 0.9-0.6 and 0.2-0.1% of ingested radioactivity for females exposed during vitellogenesis and embryogenesis respectively. The amount of extractable radioactivity present in oocytes and embryos was 0.19 and 0.07% of the ingested dose respectively. The radio-HPLC profiles obtained from bile, liver, oocyte and embryo extracts were similar. They showed the presence of 4n-NP-glucuronide as the major metabolite and traces of unchanged 4n-NP. The other metabolites corresponded to 8-hydroxynonylphenol, 9-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-nonanoic acid and para-hydroxybenzoic acid which is the final product of the alkyl chain oxidation. Our results indicate that exposure of ovoviviparous female fish to 4-NP during vitellogenesis and embryogenesis leads to the contamination of the progeny by 4-NP and its metabolites.
