Assessment effects of cage culture on nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics in relation to fallowing in a shallow lake in China

Nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics in relation to fallowing in a fish cage farm was investigated in a shallow lake in China. Four sampling sites were set: beneath the cages, at the cage sides, and 50 and 100 m east of the cage farm. Total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) in lake water and sediment were analyzed during a 2-year rearing cycle. The cage culture had a fish yield of 16.3-39.2 tonnes in the study period. Based on the mass balance equation, 1533-3084 kg TN and 339-697 kg TP were contributed to the lake environment. Nitrogen and phosphorous concentrations showed greater increase in the first culture period than in the second rearing cycle. No obvious changes were found at the sampling sites 50 and 100 m east of the cages during the study periods. Main impacts were found close to the cages (beneath the cages and at the cage side); the sampling points at the cage side showed relatively high TN and TP sedimentation. After 3 months of fallowing, water TN and TP decreased significantly but the sediment TN and TP contents remained high. Therefore, recovery seems to happen during fallowing but attention should be paid to whether the culture continues to operate in the future.

Kinetics of alkaline phosphatase in lake sediment associated with cage culture of Oreochromis niloticus

Variations in kinetics of alkaline phosphatase occurring in different sites of sediment associated with cage culture of Oreochromis niloticus in a shallow Chinese freshwater lake (Lake Donghu) were described. In addition, the kinetic parameters of each 2.5-cm stratum in the sediment from the surface down to 37.5 cm were analyzed. Horizontally, the V-max values of alkaline phosphatase in surface sediments increased markedly at sites immediately under and adjacent to the cage that would be subjected to the deposition of fish feces. Peak V-max values in the top 5 cm of the sediment under the cage were also observed relative to their deeper control. After a treatment where the fish feces were added over 12 days, the sediment in deeper layer exhibited a significantly higher V-max value, thereby corroborating the relationship between V-max values of alkaline phosphatase and fish feces in sediments. The fish feces exhibited a remarkable alkaline phosphatase activity (APA). Thus, it is indeed a source of the enzyme. Effects of the fish feces were dose- and time-dependent. The V-max values in sediments were always stimulated, but the K-m values showed much more variability. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

WEPP模型坡面版在黄土丘陵沟壑区的适用性评价——以坡度因子为例

利用安塞试验站1985-1992年的气象观测数据和野外坡度径流小区径流和土壤侵蚀量监测资料,评价了WEPP模型在黄土丘陵沟壑区不同坡度条件下的适用性。结果表明,径流量的模拟值在10°、15°、20°、25°和28°五个坡度条件下,变化幅度不如实测值明显,但模拟值随坡度变化的趋势和实测值相一致;WEPP模型对次降雨、年平均和多年平均土壤侵蚀量模拟结果较好,且无论是模拟值在不同坡度之间的差值、还是模拟值随坡度变化趋势均与实测值接近。I30对WEPP模型模拟次降雨径流量有重要影响,当I30大于0.92mm/min,模型模拟误差较大。WEPP模型对次降雨土壤侵蚀量的模拟与PI30密切相关,当PI30大于129mm2/min时,模型模拟误差较大。∑PI30对WEPP模型模拟年平均径流量和侵蚀量有重要影响,当∑PI30大于150mm2/min时,模拟精度明显下降,且∑PI30对径流模拟影响较对土壤侵蚀模拟影响明显。WEPP模型对次降雨、年平均和多年平均径流量模拟的Nash-Sutcliffe有效性ME分别为0.914、0.912和0.617;对次降雨、年平均和多年平均土壤侵蚀量模拟的Nash-Sutcliffe有效性ME...

The properties and possible transformation path for C12B24N24

The structure and frequencies of C12B24N24 have been calculated by means of an ab initio method. By comparing the average bond energies with C-60, the calculated results predict that the cage C12B24N24 is a stable molecule. The calculated results indicate that the cage molecule C12B24N24 has a relative large HOMO-LUMO energy gap and a low rigidity The structures and stability of six possible isomers of C2B4N4 are used to suggest a possible transformation path from the pentagon CB2N2 to the C12B24N24 materials.

Sustainable development of coastal and marine areas in small island developing states: A basis for integrated coastal management

Agenda 21, the 40-chapter action plan, agreed to by all nations participating in the 1992 Earth Summit represents an ambitious effort to provide policy guidance across the entire spectrum of environment, development, and social issues confronting mankind. In the area of oceans and coasts (Chapter 17 of Agenda 21), the Earth Summit underscored that the management of oceans and coasts should be ‘integrated in content and anticipatory in ambit.’ To assist those responsible for implementing the Earth Summit guidelines on ocean and coastal management, this article first reviews the fundamental shift in paradigm reflected in the Earth Summit agreements as well as the specific recommendations contained in Chapter 17. Next, the article examines the central concept of ‘integrated management,’ noting both its importance and its limits. A general or ‘synthesis’ model of ‘integrated coastal management’ is then presented, addressing such questions as management goals, what is being managed, where, how, and by whom. In a concluding section, methods are proposed whereby the general or ‘synthesis model’ can be tailored to diverse national contexts, involving varying physical, socio-economic, and political conditions.

Hydrothermal syntheses and crystal structures of new cage-like mixed-valent polyoxovanadates

Three new cage-like mixed-valent polyoxovanadates [Ni(1,10'-phen)(3)](2)[V10O26] 1, [Zn(2,2'-biPY)(3)](3)[V15O36Cl](.)3H(2)O (2) and [Co(2,2'-biPY)(3)](3)[V15O36Cl](.)3H(2)O (3) have been hydrothermally synthesized for the first time and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, EPR spectra, TG analyses and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The polyoxoanion of I exhibits an interesting empty ellipsoidal [V-2(IV) V-8(V) O-26](4-) 'host' shell, while the oxo vanadium clusters of 2 and 3 possess a spherical [V-8(IV) V-7(V) O36Cl](6-) cage with a Cl- ion encapsulated. The structure-directing role of organic templates (1,10'-phen and 2,2'-bipy) on the formation of the polyoxoanion structures is discussed.

Isothermal melt and cold crystallization kinetics of poly(aryl ether ketone ether ketone ketone)

The isothermal melt and cold crystallization kinetics of poly(aryl ether ketone ether ketone ketone) are investigated by differential scanning calorimetry over two temperature regions. The Avrami equation describes the primary stage of isothermal crystallization kinetics with the exponent n approximate to 2 for both melt and cold crystallization. With the Hoffman-Weeks method, the equilibrium melting point is estimated to be 406 degrees C. From the spherulitic growth equation proposed by Hoffman and Lauritzen, the nucleation parameter (K-g) of the isothermal melt and cold crystallization is estimated. In addition, the K-g value of the isothermal melt crystallization is compared to those of the other poly(aryl ether ketone)s. (C) 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
