As a result of environmental degradation,urban green space has become a key issue for urban sustainable development.This paper takes Liaoyang City in Northeast China as an example to develop green space planning using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model,landscape ecological principles and Geographical Information System (GIS).Based on the influencing factors of topography,building density and orientation,Shou Mountain,Longding Mountain and the Taizi River were selected as the urban ventilation path... 相似文献
Shales are a major sink for K into seawater delivered from continental weathering, and are potential recorders of K cycling. High precision K isotope analyses reveal a > 0.6 ‰ variation in δ41K values (41K/39K relative to NIST SRM 3141a) from a set of well characterized post-Archean Australian shale (PAAS) samples. By contrast, loess samples have relatively homogenous δ41K values (− 0.5 ± 0.1 ‰), which may represent the average K composition of upper continental crust. Most of the shales analyzed in this study have experienced K enrichment relative to average continental crust, and the majority of them define a trend of decreasing δ41K value (from − 0.5 to − 0.7 ‰) with increasing K content and K/Na ratio, indicating cation exchange in clays minerals is accompanied by K isotope fractionation. Several shale samples do not follow the trend and have elevated δ41K values up to − 0.1 ‰, and these samples are characterized by variable Fe isotope compositions, which reflect post-depositional processes. The K isotope variability observed in shales, in combination with recent findings about K isotope fractionation during continental weathering, indicates that K isotopes fractionate during cycling of K between different reservoirs, and K isotopes in sediments may be used to trace geological cycling of K.
It is very important to strengthen the research about the heavy metal pollution of soil in vulnerable ecological regions of the south-central arid area of Northwest China for regulating and guiding local industrial and municipal activities and for protecting the environment. In this study, 48 surface soil samples were collected in the desert–loess transitional zone in the south of the Tengger Desert. The distributions of elements (heavy metal based) and the differences between urban and natural soils were analyzed. We observed that As, Pb, Cu, Zn and S were clearly enriched in the Baiyin area, and Ni and Cr were mainly enriched in the Zhongwei area. V, Mn, Ti, Bi, Co and W were enriched in the southeast margin of the Tengger Desert, where there is relatively little human activity. Over the entire study area, Ce, La and Nd were widely distributed across regions whether with strong or weak human activity. Based on the distributions of elements, we suggest that in the desert–loess transitional zone in the south of the Tengger Desert, the distribution and abundances of element As, Pb, Cu, Zn, S, Ni and Cr are strongly related to the human activities in the area, but the elements V, Mn, Ti, Bi, Co, W, Ce, La and Nd are derived mainly from natural sources. 相似文献
