Early diagenesis of nurtrients （C, N, P and Si） stored in sediments of two reservoirs in southwestern China

Damming is a common anthropogenic intervention along the course of rivers, which is defined as ＂artificial-lake effect＂, both in China and across the world. Today as many as 48000 dams and/or reservoirs are in operation in the Changjiang River （Yangtze River） drainage area, and more are being constructed. While damming is well known to affect riverbome nutrient loads, and thus the riverine ecosystems owing to removal of carbon fixation, and removal of particles in reservoir sediments, there is limited information on the detailed early diagenesis of sediments in reservoirs including the regeneration processes of nutrients deposited in sediments and exchange flux across the sediment-water interface, which is important for mass balance of riverbome nutrients. In the present study, two large-size reservoirs, Wujiangdu Reservoir （WJDR） and Dongfeng Reservoir （DFR）, located on the main steam of the Wujiang River and with uniformity hydrography and discrepancy biogeochemical activity （e. g. primary production）, were selected for a comparative study on the detailed processes of nutrient regeneration. Water, pore water and sediment were sampled from these two reservoirs and dissolved organic carbon （DOC）, NH4^＋, NO3^-, PO4^3-, dissolved silica （DSi） in the overlying water and pore water, and total organic matter in sediments were determined. The results of correlation analysis suggested that in these two reservoirs, processes of nutrient regeneration near the sediment-water interface were significantly different. As a result of rapid decomposition of algae-derived ＂labile＂ organic matter in upper sediments, nutrient regeneration processes and upward fluxes in WJDR are dramatically stronger than those of DFR. NH4^＋ upward flux from sediment in WJDR was about 17 times higher than that in DFR. PO4^3- flux in WJDR is about 13 times above that in DFR. DOC flux in WJDR is larger that in DFR by 5 times, and DSi by 1 time.     

10th International Riversymposium ＆ International Conference on Environmental Flows 3-6 September, 2007

Please mark your calendars and plan to attend this event! This event will bring together world experts - practitioners, lawyers and policy experts, scientists, sociologists, economists, and others representing project-based efforts, national perspectives, and global insight - to provide a holistic view of river management and environmental flows. It will showcase practices from throughout the world, provide opportunities for networking, and advance common knowledge related to the themes and sub-themes of this conference.     

珲春地区东北虎保护现状调查

珲春地区位于我国与俄罗斯、朝鲜交界地带，自古以来就是有名的“鸡鸣闻三国，犬吠惊三疆”的金三角，由于它与俄罗斯滨海边疆区南部地区和朝鲜庆兴、罗津地区有着相同的自然地理条件，且与俄罗斯的三个自然保护区相连，已经成为东北虎、远东豹及被捕食动物自由迁徙的生态通道，是国家一级保护动物野生虎最重要的生活区域之一。

韧性剪切变形对岩石地球化学行为的制约——以北阿尔金巴什考供韧性剪切带为例

韧性剪切变形对岩石地球化学行为的制约一直是地质学家们探讨的课题。本文以构成北阿尔金红柳沟——拉配泉俯冲碰撞杂岩带与北阿尔金地块边界的巴什考供斜向逆冲型韧性剪切带为例，通过对韧性剪切带内花岗岩变形前后不同变形强度构造岩的地球化学组成进行对比，确定等比线斜率，探讨韧性变形对岩石体积和成分变异的影响。计算结果表明，在糜棱岩化过程中，糜棱岩化花岗岩体积亏损21％，花岗质糜棱岩体积亏损31％。质量平衡计算结果和等比线图表明，韧；陛剪切作用导致SiO2，流失量最大，A12O3、K2O及Ba、Rb、Sr等都有不同程度的丢失，显示出较强的活动性，MnO、P2O5、Sc位于等比线上或附近，表现出相对的稳定性。岩石中活动组分的变异是流体渗滤作用引起的，不活动组分的变异是体．积亏损造成的。

岩土破损演化理论(Ⅰ):破损空间

指出当前利用CT数研究岩土力学的所有方法为观察研究,浪费了宝贵的CT定量化信息.利用CT数定义了岩样某点的完整度和破损度.根据完整度和破损度的水平以及集合论定义了λ水平完整域、λ水平破损域和(λ1-λ2)截理,利用测度论精确度量它们的大小,在此基础上建立了岩土介质完整空间和破损空间的概念,为利用CT数开展岩土介质力学性质定量分析开创了新途径.如果将λ水平由细观值逐渐放大到宏观值,则该方法适应于宏观岩土力学,实现了宏观力学与细观力学的统一描述,实现了连续介质力学与多孔或裂隙介质力学的统一描述.
