Antioxidation and ATPase activity in the gill of mud crab Scylla serrata under cold stress

Mud crab (Scylla serrata) is an important commercial crustacean in China. An experiment was designed to study the effect of cold stress on S. serrata. After a one-week adaptation at 28oC, the temperature is suddenly reduced to 4oC. The crabs were sampled every 2 h for 10 h and dissected immediately to measure the enzyme activity. The crabs at room temperature (28oC) were used as the control group. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX), the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activity of 4 ATPases (Na , K -ATPase; Mg2 -ATPase; Ca2 -ATPase; Ca2 , Mg2 -ATPase) were measured biochemically. In contrast to the control group, the SOD activity increased significantly from 2 to 6 h after the cold stress, and then decreased. The CAT and GPX activities increased in 2 h, and then decreased gradually. The content of MDA increased gradually in 4 h. The activity of Na , K -ATPase decreased in 2 h, increased up to the top value at Hour 6, then decreased again. The activities of Mg2 -ATPase, Ca2 -ATPase and Ca2 , Mg2 -ATPase increased significantly in 6 h, insignificantly in any other hours. Under cold stress, the activity of antioxidative enzymes in S. serrata was reduced at first then stabilized, ROS-scavenging weakened, and MDA accumulated gradually in the gill after 6 h. The activity of the 4 ATPases in the crab decreased after 6 h, suggesting that the ability to regulate ion concentration has been paralyzed. Therefore, the maximum period to sustain healthy meat in the crab under cold stress is 6 hours.

雷达高度计海况偏差估计神经网络模型研究

本文基于Jason-2高度计数据,在12个不同季节的cycle数据中组合1~6个cycle的有效波高、风速和海况偏差为训练集,选取Jason-2的另外3个不同季节的cycle数据集为测试集。经检验分析,确定3个cycle对应的BP神经网络模型。将该模型应用于HY-2高度计海况偏差的估计,通过海况偏差与有效波高及风速的拟合优度、解释方差和残差对比分析,结果表明:神经网络BP模型可以有效应用于HY-2的海况偏差估计并明显优于传统海况偏差参数模型。     

雷达高度计海况偏差估计非参数模型研究

本文基于Jason-2高度计,采用核函数估计（NW）和局部线性回归估计(LLR)两种非参数估计方法,选用高斯(Gaussian)核函数和球谐(Epanechnikov)核函数及固定带宽和局部可调带宽。对不同组合形式的模型进行优选,确定LLR估计方法的Epanechnikov核函数、局部可调带宽为最优非参数模型。通过对最优非参数模型和参数模型结果进行对比分析表明,非参数模型在北高纬度区域表现更优,而在中低纬度及南纬区域参数模型不失优势。将非参数模型应用于我国HY-2A高度计,得到与以上同样的结论。     

Abundance,biomass and composition of spring ice algal and phytoplankton communities of the Laptev Sea(Arctic)

<正> Abundance,biomass and composition of the ice algal and phytoplank-ton communities were investigated in the southeastern Laptev Sea in spring 1999.Diatoms dominated the algal communities and pennate diatoms dominated the dia-tom population.12 dominant algal species occurred within sea ice and underlyingwater column,including Fragilariopsis oceanica,F.cylindrus,Nitzschiafrigida,N.promare,Achnanthes taeniata,Nitzschia neofrigida,Naviculapelagica,N.vanhoef fenii,N.septentrionalis,Melosira arctica,Clindrothecaclosterium and Pyrarnimonas sp.The algal abundance of bottom 10 cm sea icevaried between 14.6 and 1562.2×10~4 ceils l~(-1)with an average of 639.0×10~4cells l~(-1),and the algal biomass ranged from 7.89 to 2093.5μg C l~(-1)with an av-erage of 886.9μg C l~(-1),which were generally one order of magnitude higherthan those of sub-bottom ice and two orders of magnitude higher than those ofunderlying surface water.The integrated algal abundance and biomass of lower-most 20 cm ice column were averagely 7.7 and 12.2 times as those of upper 20 mwater column,respectively,suggesting that the ice algae might play an importantrole in maintaining the coastal marine ecosystem before the thawing of sea ice.Icealgae influenced the phytoplankton community of the underlying water column.However,the“seeding”of ice algae for phytoplankton bloom was negligible be-cause of the iow phytoplankton biomass within the underlying water column.

厦门港海区真刺唇角水蚤不同季节种群的同工酶分析

于1989年10月—1990年1月在厦门港海区采集真刺唇角水蚤,对其不同季节种群4种酶的6个酶区,即:苹果酸酶(ME)、苹果酸脱氢酶(MDH)、醛氧化酶(AOX_1,AOX_2)和酯酶(EST_1,EST_2)进行了分析。结果表明,苹果酸酶和苹果酸脱氢酶是单态的,而其余的两种酶是多态的。除了EST_2之外,冬春种群与夏秋种群在其余5个酶区的等位基因频率非常相似;EST_2在有的个体不出现酶带,冬春种群的表达频率高于夏秋种群。温度对EST有明显的影响,在55℃中EST_1和EST_2全部失活;在45℃以下各温度组中EST_1的表达频率全部为1,但在EST_2则有所变化,变化规律与自然种群的相近。
