近10年蒙古高原植被覆盖变化及其对气候的季节响应

利用2001~2010年间MODIS NDVI数据、同期气象数据和MODIS土地覆盖分类产品,探讨蒙古高原植被覆盖变化趋势及其对气温和降水量的季节响应特征。结果表明,10 a来,蒙古高原植被覆盖度呈增加趋势和呈下降趋势的面积基本持平;春季和夏季植被覆盖度呈下降趋势,而秋季呈上升趋势,降水量是最主要的影响因子;在秋季5种植被类型均呈增加趋势,而在春季和夏季不同植被类型的增减趋势因植被类型而异。     

荒漠草地4种灌木生物量分配特征

生物量是植物积累能量的主要体现,其在各器官中的分配是植物对环境适应的结果,反映了植物的生长策略。生物量分配会影响不同碳库之间的碳周转,进而影响陆地生态系统碳循环。选取腾格里沙漠东南缘荒漠草地的4种优势灌木种,采用全挖法在个体水平上研究了各器官的生物量以及地下-地上生物量关系(根冠比R/S),试图揭示生物量在各器官中以及地下-地上的分配格局。结果表明:不同物种生物量在地上部分各器官中的分配策略不同;R/S也不相同,其中红砂（Reaumuria soongarica）最大(中值为0.972),珍珠（Salsola passerina） (中值为0.744）和驼绒藜（Ceratoides latens）(中值为0.670)次之,盐爪爪（Kalidium foliatum）最小(中值为0.179),这表明4种灌木具有各自独特的生长策略。随着灌木的生长,冠幅和生物量不断增大,R/S呈下降趋势,说明植物在开始生长阶段对限制性的水分和养分可能有更高的竞争需求。4种灌木的根系分布在不同种间也存在差异,盐爪爪根系较浅(主要分布在0～30 cm土层),其次是珍珠（主要分布在0～50 cm土层),驼绒藜和红砂的根系分布较深(主要分布在0～70 cm土层)。驼绒藜、红砂和珍珠的地下-地上生物量分配模式支持等速生长假说,而盐爪爪的地下-地上生物量分配模式则不支持该假说。4种灌木的地上生物量与地下生物量(经对数转换)均呈极显著的线性相关关系(p<0.001),决定系数介于0.81~0.93之间,这一相关关系可以应用于对荒漠草地地下生物量的估算。本结果有助于进一步研究荒漠生态系统的生物量分配格局和碳循环。     

旧石器时代至商周时期贵州遗址空间分布及其自然环境背景

根据对贵州230 处遗址的时空变化分析发现, 贵州旧石器时代遗址集中分布在中部、西北部和黔西南等喀斯特发育的高海拔区域。至新石器时代, 遗址仍集中分布在中部、西北部和黔西南地区, 但南部、东部等沿河地带和中西部的山间坝子开始有遗址分布。到商周时期, 遗址主要分布在沿河地带和山间坝子里。其中, 东部和南部海拔低于1000 m的地区遗址多分布在沿河地带, 而西部和北部海拔高于1000 m的地区遗址则分布在山间坝子。贵州位于亚热带湿润气候区, 气候环境的冷暖干湿波动对从事渔猎、采集及原始农业生产的古人类影响不大, 人类居住空间变化更多的与贵州特殊的自然地理背景有关, 特别是喀斯特地貌发育及适宜农业生产地方的空间差异, 对贵州旧石器至商周时期的遗址分布影响显著。旧石器时代人类以采集和渔猎为生, 临近水源的天然溶洞是人类居住的首选。随农业的出现和发展, 便于农耕的沿河地带和山间坝子成为人类的生活居住地。故新石器时代, 贵州先民居住呈现洞穴和河流阶地或山间坝子并存;至商周时期, 农业成为人类的主要经济生产方式, 人类主要居住在沿河地带和山间坝子里。     

饲料中添加益生菌对凡纳滨对虾(Litopenaeus vannamei)非特异免疫基因表达量和抗病力的影响

采用实时荧光定量PCR方法,进行肠道复合益生菌对凡纳滨对虾相关免疫基因表达量的研究。通过感染实验,分析饲料中添加益生菌对凡纳滨对虾病毒感染能力的影响。结果表明,Real-time PCR揭示在投喂期间饲料中添加芽孢杆菌/溶藻弧菌组的对虾血淋巴细胞中的proPO、SOD和LZM的相对表达量均显著高于对照组(P<0.05);感染WSSV后,对芽孢杆菌/溶藻弧菌组凡纳滨对虾血淋巴7个采样时间点的proPO、SOD、LZM的表达进行Real-time PCR分析,检测表明WSSV刺激24h后,对虾血淋巴中的proPO、SOD和LZM的表达呈现显著性上调,且分别在48h、96h、96h达到最大值。累积死亡率结果证实饲料中添加益生菌均可提高其对虾抗WSSV感染的能力,尤其以坚强芽孢杆菌活菌与溶藻弧菌活菌配合使用效果更佳。     

Impact of the eastern water diversion from the south to the north project on the saltwater intrusion in the Changjiang Estuary in China

The south to the north project(WDP) on the saltwater intrusion in the Changjiang Estuary is studied by the improved three-dimensional(3D) numerical model.The net unit width flux in the Changjiang Estuary as well as the sectional salt flux is calculated in the North Branch(NB),the South Branch(SB),the North Channel(NC),the South Channel(SC),the North Passage(NP) and the South Passage(SP),respectively.The net seaward water flux in the SB is reduced,and the net water flux spilling over from the NB to the SB is enhanced after the eastern WDP.Under the mean river discharge condition in the dry season,the net salt flux spilling over from the NB to the SB is increased by 2.09 t/s and 0.52 t/s during the spring and neap tides,respectively,due to the eastern WDP.The saltwater intrusion in the Changjiang Estuary is enhanced by the eastern WDP.Compared with that during the spring tide,the net water diversion ratio during the neap tide in the NC is smaller,and thus the enhancement of the saltwater intrusion by the eastern WDP is smaller in the NC,and larger in the NP and the SP.The tidally averaged surface salinity at the water intakes of the Dongfengxisha Reservoir,the Chenhang Reservoir and the Qingcaosha Reservoir rises both during the spring and neap tides.

Seismic capacity of retrofitted beam–column connections in high‐rise steel frames when subjected to long‐period ground motions

The seismic capacity of beam‐to‐column connections in steel high‐rise frames is a matter of concern, particularly when they are subjected to long‐period ground motions. A previous full‐scale shaking table test conducted at the E‐Defense National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention in Japan disclosed cracks and fractures in such beam‐to‐column connections. This paper examines the effects of three types of beam‐to‐column connection retrofit: supplemental welds, wing plates, and a haunch. Quasi‐static member tests and a series of shaking table tests applied to a full‐scale specimen are conducted to quantify the respective performances of the retrofit schemes. The performance of a total of 28 connections tested by the member and shaking table tests is evaluated together with that of an additional 12 unretrofitted connections tested in the previous test. When the supplemental welds are applied only to the shear tab to the web, the connection fractures at the same instant as the connection without retrofit. The corresponding cumulative plastic rotation is not improved. When the supplement welds are further applied to the web‐to‐column connection, strain concentration at the bottom flange, primarily promoted by the presence of the RC floor slab, is significantly reduced, and the cumulative plastic rotation capacity is increased to eight times that of the connection without retrofit. For the wing plate connection and haunch connection, the critical section is moved from the beam end to the beam cross‐section corresponding to the tip of the wing plates or haunch, resulting in an improvement of ductility by eight times that of the unretrofitted connection.
