A fast indicator for detecting gross pollution by hazardous chemicals

Median survival, 10% mortality, and 10% turnover times of rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, were compared in solutions containing copper or cyanide ions. For all concentrations of poisons (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 g.nr³ of copper as Cu²⁺ and 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 g.m³ of cyanide, as KCN), the times for turnover were the least. These were short enough (4.5–96 min) to be of use in monitoring waters which are being abstracted by water treatment plants; the method may be generally applicable for detection of gross forms of pollution by hazardous chemicals.     

Distribution and abundance of demersal fish from trawl stations in the bay of plenty,New Zealand, 1961–63

Between March 1961 and January 1963 trawling surveys were carried out in the Bay of Plenty. Seasonal comparisons of catch weight were made for the four commercially important species, snapper, tarakihi, trevally, and gurnard, during 1962–63. Only trevally showed any marked seasonal variation in total catch. Tarakihi were most abundant in waters over 50 fathoms and snapper, trevally, and gurnard were most abundant in shallower depths. The best return for fishing effort came from the middle sector of the Bay. There was a marked absence of undersized tarakihi and trevally from the catches. A species composition list for the Bay of Plenty waters and a table of species abundance at the stations sampled has been compiled from the trawl catch data.     

Shade effects on stream periphyton and invertebrates: An experiment in streamside channels

Abstract

The effects of shade on periphyton and invertebrates were investigated by comparisons in 12 replicate channels beside a pasture stream where shade cloth reduced the photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) by 0, 60, 90, and 98%. Periphytic productivity decreased with increasing shade. Periphyton chlorophyll a was consistently low (< 30 mg m^?2) under 98 and 90% shade and usually low at 60% shade, whereas blooms were common during summer in the unshaded channels. More periphytic taxa occurred in the open than shaded channels and the relative concentration of the photo‐protective pigment beta‐carotene decreased with increasing shade. Nitrate uptake rates by periphyton, measured in separate chamber studies, decreased progressively as shade increased from 60% through 90% to 98%, and were more strongly correlated with gross primary productivity than periphyton chlorophyll a and particulate carbon levels. Total invertebrate and chironomid densities declined significantly as shade increased from 60 to 90% and invertebrate taxa richness declined markedly between 90 and 98% shade. Most collector‐browsing invertebrates (other than chironomids) had similar densities under 0–90% shade and only declined at 98%. This suggests a weak coupling of these invertebrates with local periphyton production and also suggests that energy derived from up‐stream sources may be their most important food in these pastoral streams.     

地基微波辐射计对乌鲁木齐暴雨天气过程的观测分析

MP-3000A是一种新型大气探测仪器,可以连续得到从地面到10km高度上高分辨率的温度、相对湿度、水汽廓线以及液态水廓线。通过选取2011年5月1日的微波辐射计观测数据,分析在降水发生前后的水汽密度和液态水含量的变化,发现大气降水与水汽密度和液态水含量有很紧密的联系。大气中的可降水量一般会维持在25mm,当大气中的可降水量值超过50mm,液态水含量值开始增加的时候,发生降水的可能性增大;降水过后,液态水含量若是没有回落到0.0mm以内,在未来的2～3h内还是会发生降水,因此研究微波辐射计探测的大气水汽密度和液态水含量,将有助于提高短时、临近预报的准确度。     

广东某硫酸冶炼工业区土壤铊污染及评价

运用地累积指数法(Igeo)及富集指数法(EF)对广东某硫酸厂含铊黄铁矿冶炼废渣堆渣场周围土壤铊污染状况进行了调查和评价。结果表明,废渣周围土壤已受到了明显的土壤铊污染,铊污染物主要集中在土壤0~165cm范围,并且表现出沿垂直方向向下迅速降低的特点;土壤表层的铊吸附量未达到饱和状态,铊污染物将继续在土壤表层发生累积作用。Igeo与EF法对铊污染评价结果相似：废渣下伏土壤0~6cm范围铊污染达到中度污染水平,而在土壤约85~15cm以下为无至轻度污染水平;15cm以下没有受到土壤铊的污染;相对于下伏土壤剖面,废渣外围土壤污染更为严重,其中表层土壤0~1cm铊已经达到显著污染,土壤2~105cm范围内铊为中度污染,而在土壤约15cm以下铊为无至轻度污染。两种方法应用于工业区土壤铊污染水平分析是可行的,但是不能表明铊在土壤中存在状态、迁移能力以及生物有效性。

泡沫固井水泥浆密度与环空液柱压力变化规律研究

超低密度泡沫水泥浆是解决低漏失压力井固井漏失,提高固井质量的有效措施。除泡沫水泥浆体系的开发与性能优化外,掌握泡沫水泥浆在环空内产生的静液柱压力随井深的变化规律,是成功实施该工艺技术的前提。借助实际气体状态方程,考虑温度、压力变化对充入氮气的影响,建立了静液柱压力和水泥浆密度与井深之间的数学模型,以迭代法编程求解该隐函数方程,并借助VB语言实现程序运算。分析了含气量变化、井深等因素对泡沫水泥浆密度及静液柱压力的影响规律,并提出了泡沫水泥浆“防漏”与“压稳”固井浆柱结构设计思路,为该工艺平衡压力固井设计提供了一定的参考和理论依据。该设计方法经现场应用,证实其运算结果的可靠性。

碱熔融-电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法测定高硫铝土矿中的硫

应用电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法(ICP-OES)测定高硫铝土矿(硫含量≤8%)中的硫时,由于硫存在-2、+4和+6等多种价态,常用的酸溶法和碱熔法处理高硫铝土矿时往往无法完全氧化硫而导致硫测定结果偏低。本文用过氧化钠熔融、热水浸取和盐酸酸化提取高硫铝土矿中的硫,使用基体匹配法绘制校准曲线补偿铝和钠对硫测定的光谱干扰,以S182.034 nm(184 nm)作为分析谱线,采用ICP-OES对硫进行测定。结果表明:3 g过氧化钠在700℃下熔融10 min,可以较好地氧化高硫铝土矿中的硫;校准曲线的线性相关系数为0.9999,方法检出限为0.025μg/m L,相对标准偏差(RSD,n=6)小于5%;与碳硫仪的测定结果相比较,两种方法无显著性差异。本方法溶样彻底,无样品损失,为今后实现应用ICP-OES同时测定高硫铝土矿中的硫和其他元素奠定了基础。
