Human influence upon sedimentation in Llangorse Lake,Wales

Palaeolimnological studies at Llangorse Lake, Wales, constitute part of the British contribution to IGCP Project 158 (The Palaeohydrology of the Temperate Zone in the Last 15000 Years). The lake has been adopted as the Reference Site for the South Wales region under Subproject 158B (Lake and Mire Environments) and is located in the Reference Area for Britain: the Severn Basin. Results of biological, physical, and multielement chemical analyses on a 12.35 m Livingstone core are presented and compared with previous analyses on short Mackereth cores taken from two troughs in the lake basin. Human impact upon post-glacial sedimentation is assessed with reference to sediment chemistry, physical properties, and sedimentation rates, based on relative pollen, ¹⁴C, and ²¹⁰Pb dating. Vegetational history of the catchment is inferred from a pollen diagram for a section of the core from c. 8 to 6.75 m depth in which evidence for human impact is first apparent. Water content, loss on ignition, and carbonate content are presented for the whole core; density, water content, loss on ignition, carbonates, and elemental analyses of P, Ca, Mg, K, Ti, Al, Fe, and Mn for the interval 6 75 and 8.25 m depth. Sedimentation rates were low during Boreal and Atlantic times (c. 9000- 5000 BP), rose significantly from the time of the elm decline (estimated at 5000 BP) and increased further at c. 1800 BP when nekron muds were succeeded by deposition of silty clay. Inferred rates of erosion of soils from the catchment are discussed and related to sediment chemistry.     

陕西略阳煎茶岭镍矿床成矿及矿石变质过程的地球化学研究

矿床中存在着岩浆离熔成因的磁黄铁矿-镍黄铁矿矿石和热液改造成因的黄铁矿-针镍矿-辉镍矿矿石。研究证明现在矿石中存在的硫化物均为较低温度条件下的变质产物,并且矿物组合的更替不仅同温度变化有关,同时还受体系中氧逸度和硫离子活度的控制。矿物组合的地球化学分析表明,现有Fe-Ni-S体系低温（<300℃）相平衡图解之间存在着矛盾的原因可能是忽略了氧化-还原条件的影响。     

金矿床石英中负价氮的发现及赋存状态探讨

利用ｘ光电子能谱测试，发现金矿床石英中有负价氮的存在。这种氮的结合能为３９８ｅＶ士，该结合能氮的化合物有多种，氦均为负价态，其中有Ｓｉ＿３Ｎ＿４Ｓｉ的ｘ光电子能谱有二个谱峰值：１０３．４ｅＶ和１０１．９ｅＶ，前者为ｓｉＯ＿２的结合能，后者为Ｓｉ＿３Ｎ＿４的结合能。Ｎ和Ｓｉ的结合能均表明石英中有Ｓｉ＿３Ｎ＿４为负三价态。石英中负价Ｎ可能为替代氧的类质同象成分。     

Emission of aliphatic amines from animal husbandry and their reactions: Potential source of N2O and HCN

We measured the emissions of volatile aliphatic amines and ammonia produced by the manure of beef cattle, dairy cows, swine, laying hens and horses in livestock buildings. The amine emissions consisted almost exclusively of the three methylamines and correlated with those of ammonia. The molar emission ratios of the methylamines to ammonia, and data on NH₃ emissions from animal husbandry in Europe, together with global statistics on domestic animals, were used to estimate the global emissions of amines. Annual global methylamine-N input to the atmosphere from animal husbandry in 1988 was 0.15±0.06 TgN (Tg=10¹² g). Almost 3/4 of these emissions consisted of trimethylamine-N. This represents about half of all methylamine emissions to the atmosphere. Other sources are marine coastal waters and biomass burning.Possible reaction pathways for atmospheric methylamines are shown. Among various speculative but possible products N₂O and HCN are of interest because the emission of methylamines could contribute to the global budgets of these compounds. Maximum atmospheric N₂O production from methylamines are below 0.4 Tg N/year, which is less than 10% of the annual N₂O growth rate. Although we do not expect the methylamine emissions to contribute in a major way to the atmospheric N₂O budget, more studies are needed to establish this conclusion beyond doubt. Similar conclusions hold for HCN.     

Comparison between Pollutant Concentration in the Samples of Fog and Rime Water Collected at Mt. Milešovka

The article aims at showing the differences in concentration of pollutants that are contained in the samples of fog and/or low cloud water in comparison with the water from rime. The results follow from the fog and rime measurements made at Mt. Mileovka (eské Stedohoí Mountains). They are compared with the results of other studies that also report the differences in fog and rime chemistry.

Evaluation of ostracod-based palaeoenvironmental reconstruction with instrumental data from the arid Faiyum Depression,Egypt

The utility of ostracod-based palaeoenvironmental reconstruction was evaluated using instrumental data for Lake Qarun, Egypt. The euryhaline ostracod Cyprideis torosa was the only species found in the lake’s recent sediment record. This species is known to tolerate salinity levels and water solute compositions that may prevent colonisation by other species. Oxygen and carbon isotope ratios of ostracod carbonate from lake sediments covary with changes in instrumental values for lake level and salinity for the period 1890–1974. δ¹³C-values correlate negatively with lake water salinity (r ² = 0.87) and δ¹⁸O-values correlate negatively with measured lake level changes (r ² = 0.41). Other ostracod proxy data provide qualitative information on lake level trends. Fossil assemblage data (juvenile/adult and valve/carapace ratios and valve preservation) provide information on wave energy. Ecophenotypic variation of C. torosa valves provided some useful palaeolimnological information. Sr/Ca and Mg/Ca ratios in ostracods were not found to reflect water composition, due to the uncoupling of these ratios with salinity in Lake Qarun. Overall, our results highlight the need to calibrate ostracod proxy data in modern systems prior to their use for palaeoenvironmental reconstruction.

水资源中氯代烃污染物的去除方法

随着工业化的发展。氯代有机溶剂使用越来越广泛。并且难于去除。在20世纪90年代初期，人们就已认识到用Fe^0恢复污染的地下水的潜力。国外正在研究帮使用扔几种还原挥发性氯代烃的还原反应介质，尤其要提高的是双金属反应系统，反应速度快，而且脱Cl中国难解产物少，目前国也只停留在实验室研究阶段，个别做了地上反应器的验证实验，它的脱Cl机理、介质钝化和完全脱Cl问题还有待于进一步研究。
