Integration of nighttime light remote sensing images and taxi GPS tracking data for population surface enhancement

The population distribution grid at fine scales better reflects the distribution of residents and plays an important role in investigating urban systems. The recent years have witnessed a growing trend of applying the nighttime light data to the estimation of population at micro levels. However, using the nighttime light data alone to estimate population may cause the overestimation problem due to excessively high light radiance in specific types of areas such as commercial zones and transportation hubs. In dealing with this issue, this study used taxi trajectory data that delineate people’s movements, and explored the utility of integrating the nighttime light and taxi trajectory data in the estimation of population in Shanghai at the spatial resolution of 500 m. First, the initial population distribution grid was generated based on the NPP-VIIRS nighttime light data. Then, a calibration grid was created with taxi trajectory data, whereby the initial population grid was optimized. The accuracy of the resultant population grid was assessed by comparing it with the refined survey data. The result indicates that the final population distribution grid performed better than the initial population grid, which reflects the effectiveness of the proposed calibration process.     

A surface network based method for studying urban hierarchies by night time light remote sensing data

Urban hierarchies are closely related to economic growth, urban planning and sustainable urban development. Due to the limited availability of reliable statistical data at fine scales, most existing studies on urban hierarchy characterization failed to capture the detailed urban spatial structure information. Previous studies have demonstrated that night time light data are correlated with many urban socio-economic indicators and hence can be used to characterize urban hierarchies. This paper presents a novel method for studying urban hierarchies from night time light data. Night time light data were first conceptualized as continuous mathematical surfaces, termed night time light surfaces. From the morphology of these surfaces the corresponding surface networks were derived. Hereafter, a night time light intensity (NTLI) graph was defined to describe the morphology of the surface network. Then, structural similarity between the night time light surfaces of any two different cities was calculated via a threshold-based maximum common induced graph searching algorithm. Finally, urban hierarchies were defined on the basis of the structural similarities between different cities. Using the 2015 annual NPP-VIIRS night time light data, the urban hierarchies of 32 major cities in China were successfully examined. The results are highly consistent with the reference urban hierarchies.     

春季季风间期赤道东印度洋浮游植物光合生理特征

Phytoplankton physiologies are dynamic and have sensitive responses to the ambient environment. In this paper,we examine photosynthetic physiologies of phytoplankton communities with Phyto-PAM in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean during the spring inter-monsoon. Environmental parameters were measured to investigate the coupling between phytoplankton photosynthetic physiologies and their habitats. During the cruise, the water column was highly stratified. The mixed layer extended to about 75 m and was characterized by high temperature(28°C) and low nutrient level. The F_v/F_m values and chlorophyll a(Chl a) concentrations were lower at the surface, as consequences of nutrient depletion and photo-inhibition. Subsurface Chl a maximum(SCM) occurred between 75 and 100 m, and had the highest F_v/F_m values. The formation of SCM was a balance between nutrient availability and light limitation. The SCM may contribute significantly to pelagic food web and primary production in the water column. Phytoplankton in different layers encountered different light, trophic and hydrographic dynamics and evolved distinct photosynthetic characteristics. Despite of co-limitation of nutrient limitation and photo-inhibition, phytoplankton in the surface layer showed their acclimation to high irradiance, had lower light utilization efficiencies(α: 0.061±0.032) and could exploit a wide range of light irradiance. Whereas, phytoplankton in the SCM layers presented the highest light utilization efficiencies(α:0.146±0.48), which guaranteed higher photosynthetic capacities under low light level. These results provide insights into phytoplankton photo-adaption strategies in this less explored region.

不同环境下镉对小球藻吸收磷速率的影响

在人工配制的污水中进行静态模拟实验,研究了不同光照强度及不同pH值下,镉对小球藻(Chlorella vulgaris)在悬浮和固定状态下对污水中正磷酸盐的吸收速率的影响。结果表明,镉存在的情况下,在实验所设的各光照强度内,悬浮态小球藻对磷的吸收速率为4~10μg/(h.个),固定化小球藻为12~16μg/(h.个);而相同的镉浓度下,在不同的pH范围中,悬浮态小球藻对磷的吸收速率为1.9~9.4μg/(h.个),固定化小球藻为5.7~12μg/(h.个)。在不同光照强度下,镉总体上降低了小球藻对磷的吸收速率,其中使悬浮藻普遍下降40%~60%,而固定处理使藻受镉的影响较少,至多下降10%~20%,但在个别光照强度下镉反而促进了小球藻对磷的吸收速率。不同pH值时,无论悬浮态还是固定态,镉在大多pH下使小球藻的磷吸收速率下降20%~30%,固定处理并没有减少镉的影响,同样在个别pH下镉促进了对磷的吸收。     

雨生红球藻细胞转化、虾青素积累与光照强度的关系及不同品系间的差异性

于2004年利用3个品系的雨生红球藻(H0、H2和H3)和以去除营养物质的藻液为实验对象,探讨了光强对细胞转化和虾青素积累的影响。结果表明,光照强度对红球藻虾青素积累和细胞转化有显著影响,并在品系间存在一定差异性。其中:品系H0在光强≤25000lx时虾青素积累量随光强的增加而增加,光强在20000～35000lx时虾青素积累量处于较高水平,而光照强度>35000lx时,虾青素积累量随光强的升高而下降;H2品系在光强≤25000lx时虾青素积累量随光强的增加而增加,光强在25000lx左右时虾青素积累量较高,当光强≥35000lx时,虾青素积累大幅度下降;H3品系在≤35000lx时虾青素积累量随光强的升高而增加,20000~45000lx为虾青素积累较适宜的光强,高于45000lx时虾青素积累量则明显下降。进一步分析得出,弱光导致红球藻虾青素含量较低是光照强度不足、细胞内虾青素含量少的结果,而强光下虾青素含量下降则是细胞受到损伤、细胞数量减少导致的。对比研究发现:在较低光强下(20000~25000lx)H2单个细胞内虾青素积累量略低于H0,但其积累虾青素总量却最高,这是由于此时H2不动细胞增长速率比其它品系高造成的,不过适宜H2积累虾青素的光照范围最窄,它对高光强的耐受性也最差;而H3在较低光强下虾青素积累总量及单个细胞内的积累速率均最低,但是它的适宜光照范围最宽,即对高光强的耐受性最强,在较大的光强波动范围内都可以保证较高的安全转化量,这就使得它在较高的光强下虽然单个细胞积累虾青素的速率仍然最低,积累总量反而显著高于其它两个品系。     

不同光质对坛紫菜果孢子和壳孢子萌发的影响

本研究探究了白、蓝、红、绿光4种光质对坛紫菜(Pyropia haitanensis)果孢子和壳孢子萌发的影响。结果表明,与白光相比,用绿光培养时,果孢子萌发管分枝形成速度、萌发管生长速度,以及壳孢子的细胞分裂速度均相对较快,用红光与蓝光培养时则相对较慢。不同光质对坛紫菜果孢子和壳孢子的存活率无显著影响,但能造成萌发体色泽呈现明显差异。刚从孢子囊释放出来的两种孢子均呈黄褐色,经白光培养的两种孢子以及蓝光培养的果孢子,其萌发体颜色加深至鲜红色,蓝光培养的壳孢子萌发体颜色加深尤为明显,最终呈深紫红色,而红光和绿光培养的两种孢子颜色变浅,最终呈浅黄褐色。研究表明,绿光培养可能不利于坛紫菜孢子萌发过程的色素积累,但有利于孢子萌发及萌发体的生长。
