舟山朱家尖海域污损生物的分布特征及其与环境因子的关系

根据2007年3月至2008年2月在舟山朱家尖蜈蚣客运码头进行的污损生物挂板试验,对该海域污损生物的种类组成、附着季节、生物量分布及生态特点进行了初步研究。结果表明:该海域共鉴定出污损生物85种,其中,藻类13种,腔肠动物13种,苔藓虫4种,多毛类12种,软体动物8种,甲壳类22种和其它13种。优势种为中胚花筒螅Tubularia mesembryanthemum、泥藤壶Balanus uliginosus、白脊藤壶Balanus albicostatus、僧帽牡蛎Saccostrea cucullata、近江牡蛎Crassostrea rivularis、马尔他钩虾Melita sp.、圆鳃麦杆虫Caprella acutifrons、长鳃麦杆虫C.equilibra和盘管虫Hydroides sp.。朱家尖海域全年都有污损生物繁殖附着,其中6—10月为附着盛期,表层和中层月板生物量的高峰值均出现在7月,最低值分别出现在2月和1月,表层月板全年附着总生物量为2 006.1g/m2,月平均生物量为167.18g/m2;中层月板全年附着总生物量为2 388.15g/m2,月平均生物量为199.01g/m2;季度板污损生物生物量按高低依次为:夏季>秋季>春季>冬季;上半年板污损生物的生物量>下半年板。在垂直分布上,除季度板外,其它试板的生物量和附着密度均为中层>表层。根据污损生物的生态习性、分布特征及对盐度的适应,可将舟山朱家尖海域主要污损生物定义为河口低盐种。水温是影响调查海域污损生物分布的主要因素,水体盐度则对朱家尖海域污损生物的种类及指标种分布具有决定性作用。     

Drought and deluge: Influence of environmental factors on water quality of kettle holes in two subsequent years with different precipitation

Thirty kettle hole ponds located in agricultural landscape of western Poland were studied with respect to physico-chemical (temperature and pH) and chemical (SC, dissolved oxygen, concentration of nutrients) variables of surface water quality during two subsequent years. Most of the ponds selected for the study host populations of endangered large branchiopod crustaceans, thus the aim of the study was to find out the rules governing these ecosystems and infer the best ways to protect them. Precipitation during the first year of the study was close to the average for the region, whereas severe drought was recorded during the second year. The influence of water regime, morphological parameters, catchment characteristics and vegetation on the parameters of water (pH, conductivity, contents of O₂, N-NH₄, N-NO₂, N-NO₃, SRP and TP) separately for both years was tested using redundancy analyses (RDA). The results showed that the factors significantly explaining the variance in water chemistry differed between years of the study. In the year of average precipitation, the most important factors were related to the morphology of the pond and its catchment. In contrast, under drought conditions the factors connected with pond vegetation and water depth were significant. However, in general, hydroperiod length of the pond was the most important factor, significant in all the models created.     

核幔界面衍射波Pdiff震相最大 记录震中距探讨

智利M_S8.8特大地震在甘肃数字测震台网记录的最大震中距达179.7°, 通过读取该地震初至震相的观测走时, 计算该震相的平均观测慢度为4.104 s/°, 与P_diff震相的理论慢度4.439 s/°基本一致. 研究结果表明: 由于甘肃数字测震台网和甘东南野外观测流动台阵独特的地理位置, 记录到了至今全球最大震中距(179.7°)的核幔界面衍射波P_diff震相; P_diff震相起始观测走时明显滞后于IASP91理论走时; 核幔界面复杂的形态对不同方位传播的P_diff震相观测走时产生了一定的影响.      

基于Landsat-TM和MODIS的非洲水体分布格局研究

卫星遥感是进行洲际或者全球尺度内陆水体信息提取的最有效、最为切实可行的技术手段。作为全球水资源较为匮乏的大洲,以遥感技术进行非洲内陆水体信息提取研究具有重要的应用价值。文章以2010年Landsat TM/ETM+卫星遥感影像数据为基础,辅以MODIS遥感影像,基于面向对象的分类方法,选用归一化差值水体指数（Normalized Difference Water Index,NDWI）及波段组合（Band 4/Band 2）进行水体信息提取。并根据不同气候区,选取4个典型区,监测年内水体的变化情况。结果表明：1）非洲内陆水体面积为311 479.2 km2,其中湖泊总面积为209 018.5 km2,占水体总面积的67.1%;河渠总面积64 550.1 km2,占20.7%;水库坑塘总面积37 910.7 km2,占12.2%。非洲拥有水库211个,总面积13 438.7 km2。2）撒哈拉以南的非洲是水体主要的分布区,统计分析表明约97%的水体分布在该地区。3）热带沙漠气候区湖泊面积呈减少趋势,热带草原气候区湖泊受干湿季节影响上下波动较大,热带雨林气候区和地中海气候区湖泊面积变化较小,总体上4个典型区水体面积变差系数＜10%。     

Oxygen consumption rates of fecal pellets produced by three coastal copepod species fed with a diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana

Fecal pellet production rate and oxygen consumption rate of copepod fecal pellets egested by Paracalanus sp., Acartia spinicauda and Centropages orsinii feeding on a diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana were measured. Fecal pellet production rates varied between 3.6 and 80.6 pellets ind⁻¹ d⁻¹ among three species, with fecal pellet production of Paracalanus sp. significantly higher than the other two copepod species. Average pellet size varied between 2.82 × 10⁵ μm³ for Paracalanus sp. and 5.36 × 10⁵ μm³ for A. spinicauda. Average volumetric oxygen consumption rates were 27.32, 5.84 and 45 fmol O₂ μm⁻³ d⁻¹ for fecal pellets produced by Paracalanus sp., A. spinicauda and C. orsinii, respectively. The potential oxygen consumption of fecal pellets egested from Paracalanus sp. was the highest due to its high fecal pellet production rate and high population abundance throughout the year. Overall, the approximate in situ oxygen consumption due to copepod fecal pellet degradation was significant in estuarine and coastal waters of Hong Kong. Results of this study give insight of the role of zooplankton in potential occurrence of hypoxia in coastal waters during summer.

Chlorohydrocarbon pesticides in the Australian marine environment after banning in the period from the 1970s to 1980s

The chlorohydrocarbon pesticides (CHPs) (principally DDT, dieldrin, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) including lindane, chlordane, heptachlor and heptachlorepoxide, aldrin and hexachlorobenzene (HCB)) were used extensively in Australia during the 1960s and 1970s. These were progressively banned from the 1970s with DDT being totally banned in 1987. The levels in marine waters are believed to have progressively declined as indicated by water in the Brisbane River, which consistently fell from maximum concentrations of about 1.7 μg/l in 1972–1973 to not detectable in 1986–1987. In some urban areas sediment concentrations, up to 1700 μg/kg dry weight, were recorded in the early 1990s which may reflect the reworking and exposure of older more contaminated material. Fish exhibited consistent occurrence of DDT, HCH, dieldrin and HCB through the 1970s to the 1990s. Maximum concentrations of DDT and dieldrin occurred generally in the 1970s at 40.3 and 8.8 μg/g wet weight, and minimums in the 1990s at 2.4 and 0.041 μg/g wet weight respectively. Inputs of dialdrin from sewage and DDT from the broad environment, reflected by the calculated daily human uptake in the diet, were shown to decline with half-lives of 1.1–1.5 and about 3 years respectively. This evidence suggests that banning of the CHPs has greatly reduced the inputs into the marine environment with consequent reductions in concentrations in biota but there is the occasional occurrence of relatively high concentrations.     

The potential role of freshwater luminescence measurements in exploring runoff pathways in upland catchments

The forested Coalburn catchment (1·5 km²) in northern England experiences episodic stream acidification. To plan for sustainable management of the plantation forest cycle, an understanding is required of the flow pathways and hydrochemical routing signatures of the organic and mineral soils that make up the source areas for runoff. A tentative mixing model, based on simple water chemistry exists for the major (terrestrial) sources and buffers of acidification; it is being expanded and consolidated by a detailed approach to the organic components of runoff, via sampling and analysis of the luminescence of surface waters at the catchment outlet and in two distinctive feeder streams. Luminescence measurements are presented that permit a simple apportionment of source areas. However, the technique also appears to have potential for identifying differential flow sourcing between the acrotelm and catotelm of intact peat deposits and for clarifying the influence of forest root systems in altering the organic chemistry of infiltrating waters. Applications may include the monitoring and prediction of coloured water events for the water supply industry. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
