云南发现中华秋沙鸭和黑嘴鸥

1997年1-3月在进行云南省高原湖泊的水禽调查过程中, 于1997年3月2日在丽江县的拉市海观察到国家I级重点保护鸟类中华秋沙鸭(Mergus squamatus)6只. 3月5-6日在宁菠县沪沽湖观察到黑嘴鸥(Larus saundersi)8只. 这两种鸟为云南省鸟类种的新记录。

Zn~(2+)浓度对固氮鱼腥藻(Anabaena azotica Ley)光能转化特性的影响

本实验对在不同Zn2+浓度条件下培养的固氮鱼腥藻(Anabaena azoticaLey)的生长、光合放氧速率和叶绿素荧光参数Fv/Fm进行了测定.结果表明,当Zn2+浓度为1.0μmol/L时,其比生长速率(Specific growth rate)最大,光合放氧速率和Fv/Fm值最高.当Zn2+浓度大于等于5.0μmol/L时会抑制A.azotica Ley的生长和光合作用.对在0μmol/L和5.0μmol/L Zn2+浓度下生长的藻细胞藻胆体-类囊体膜复合物吸收光谱的比较和对与5.0μmol/L

Redescription of Difflugia tuberspinifera Hu, Shen, Gu et Gong, 1997 (Protozoa : Rhizopoda : Arcellinida : Difflugiidae) from China

The freshwater testate amoeba Difflugia tuberspinifera Hu et al. 1997 collected from pond and lake in China, is investigated by light and scanning electron microscopy. This little known taxon is redescribed and its morphology, biometry and ecology are supplied. After carefully comparison with other six similar species including Difflugia bartosi Stepanek, D. corona Wallich, D. corona cashi Deflandre, D. corona tuberculata Vucetich, D. muriformis Gauthier-Lievre et Thomas and Netzelia tuberculata (Wallich) Netzal we believe that the sub-spherical to spherical shell, the mulberry-shaped appearance, the 7-10 apertural tooth-like structures, the short collar and the conical spines numbering from 4 to 8 at the upper equatorial region in D. tuberspinifera set it apart from other species. Besides, statistical analysis indicates that D. tuberspinifera is a size-monomorphic species characterized by a main-size class and a small size range and the shell height is significant correlated with other morphometric characters at p < 0.05 excepting the number of aperture tooth-like structures and the number of spines. Moreover, D. tuberspinifera inhabits not only lotic but also lentic environment.

Rotifera recorded from China, 1893-1997, with remarks on their composition and distribution

A search of the literature on rotifers recorded from China, includes today 477 valid species names and 42 subspecies or infrasubspecific variants in 84 genera and 28 families recorded since 1893. Chinese rotifera research is reviewed, and all recorded species are listed with current taxonomic status and their first localities in China. Most of the named taxa are widely distributed or cosmopolitan, with only a small number (about 3%) possibly restricted to China. This fauna exhibits 15 endemic taxa. The composition and distribution of Chinese Rotifera are briefly analyzed. It is likely that considerably more rotifers remain to be described from China as further study to be carried on and taxonomic resolution improves.

Kinetics and transport model for the chemical vapor epitaxy of GexSi1-x

A numerical model that combines mass transport and surface kinetics was applied, for the first time, to the chemical vapor epitaxy of GexSi1-x. The temperature, velocity and concentration fields were calculated from the conservation equations for energy, momentum and species coupled with the boundary conditions on the growth surface which were determined by surface kinetics. The deposition rates of Si and Ge were assumed to be limited, respectively, by surface kinetics and mass transport. A theoretical relation between the initial conditions and the Ge composition in the solid was established. The calculated growth rate as well as the Ge composition in the solid and its dependence on growth temperature agree well with experimental data.

X-ray crystallographic structure of meta- and para-dimethyl ester of pyromellitic acid

The polycrystalline powder of para- and meta-dimethyl ester of pyromellitic acid (PMDE) have been prepared by fractional crystallization, and their crystal structures have been determined by Wide-Angle X-ray Diffraction (WAXD). Both p-PMDE and m-PMDE was found to be orthorhombic crystal system, and their unit cell parameters a = 0.840 nm, b = 0.707 nm, c = 1.136 nm and a = 1.032 nm; b = 0.835 nm, c = 0.714 nm, respectively. Space group all belongs to P-mmm. p-PMDE has two molecules per unit cell with crystal density 1.388 g . cm(-3), while m-PMDE has two molecules per unit cell with crystal density 1.522 g . cm(-3). Indices of crystal diffraction peaks are also detailed in the present work. The difference in crystal structures between p-PMDE and m-PMDE has thus been used to explain the curing behavior of isomerically pyromellitic dianhydride-based poly(amic ester)s.
