Airborne Eddy Covariance (EC) method is one of the most effective ways to measure the turbulent fluxes over regional scale directly. The turbulent fluxes from airborne EC method have the same spatial scale with the pixel scale of remote sensing image and the grid scale of land-surface models, which is very important for the simulation of regional or global land-surface fluxes. UAV-based eddy covariance method could achieve the observation of turbulent fluxes in a multi-period and multi-sorties way, and the observation result is reliable and the application is inexpensive. It is an important development direction for airborne flux observation technique. After the introduction of the main technical characteristics of the airborne EC method, this paper reviewed the worldwide progress in UAV-based fluxes measurements system from these aspects of the specifications of the UAVs, the integrated instruments, and the analysis of the application cases. Then, the main sources of uncertainty affecting the UAV-based fluxes measurements were discussed. At last, the shortcomings of the current UAV-based flux observation system were summarized. A brief outlook about UAV-based fluxes measurements technique was also given. 相似文献
Biological carbon pumping (BCP) is a key process in which dissolved inorganic carbon in terrestrial aquatic ecosystems is utilized by aquatic autotrophs for photosynthesis and transformed into autochthonous organic matter (AOC). However, the mechanisms underlying BCP and the amount of generated AOC deposited effectively, are still poorly understood. Therefore, we conducted a systematic study combining modern hydrochemical monitoring and a sediment trap experiment in Fuxian Lake (Yunnan, SW China), the second-deepest plateau, oligotrophic freshwater lake in China. Temperature, pH, EC (electrical conductivity), DO (dissolved O2), [HCO3−], [Ca2+], SIc, partial CO2 (pCO2) pressure, and carbon isotopic compositions of HCO3− (δ13CDIC) in water from Fuxian Lake all displayed distinct seasonal and vertical variations. This was especially apparent in an inverse correlation between pCO2 and DO, indicating that variations of hydrochemistry in the lake water were mainly controlled by the metabolism of the aquatic phototrophs. Furthermore, the lowest C/N ratios and highest δ13Corg were recorded in the trap sediments. Analyses of the C/N ratio demonstrated that the proportions of AOC ranged from 30% to 100% of all OC, indicating that AOC was an important contributor to sedimentary organic matter (OC). It was calculated that the AOC flux in Fuxian Lake was 20.43 t C km−2 in 2017. Therefore, AOC produced by carbonate weathering and aquatic photosynthesis could potentially be a significant carbon sink and may have an important contribution to solving the lack of carbon sinks in the global carbon cycle.
In this study, two new laboratory reference solutions for testing Cu isotopic composition were established and investigated. Two commercially available pure copper products, copper plate and copper wire, were dissolved in 1000‐ml Teflon® bottles, to produce 200 μg ml?1 stock solutions (hereafter referred to as NWU‐Cu‐A and NWU‐Cu‐B), and cryogenically stored. The Cu isotopic compositions of the two samples were determined in three different laboratories using multi‐collector inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry, and the Cu isotopic compositions obtained from the standard‐sample bracketing method were consistent within the two standard deviation (2s) range. The Cu isotopic compositions of the NWU‐Cu‐A and NWU‐Cu‐B standard solutions were δ65Cu = +0.91 ± 0.03‰ (2s, n =42) and δ65Cu = ?0.05 ±0.03‰ (2s, n =49), respectively, relative to the reference material NIST SRM 976. 相似文献
