Laser Guiding in the Randomicity of Discrete Surface Strengthening by Arc Discharge

Several discharge areas by laser-guided discharge (LGD) were compared with those by common arc discharge. The randomicity of discharge areas by common arc discharge was controlled by laser guiding on two scales: large scale (the spacing of the discharge areas) and small scale (the inside of the discharge area). The position of the discharge area overlapped completely with a laser focus; therefore, the distribution and surface shape of the discharge areas were controlled. The stochastic movement of anode spot in the discharge area was controlled by laser guiding. As such, the repetitive melting and solidifying of microstructures in the discharge area was constrained. The tempered microstruc- tures in the discharge area were voided, the utilization efficiency of input energy was improved, and the strengthened depth of the discharge areas was increased. The regularity of cross-sectional shape of the discharge area was also improved. The hardness of microstructures in both discharge areas is greater than that of the base material. The highest level of hardness of microstructures in both discharge areas measures above 1000 HV. In summary, the hardness ofmicrostructures in the discharge area by LGD is larger and more discrete than that by common arc discharge.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate fabricated by femtosecond laser direct writing

We report the fabrication of a novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate with a controllable enhancement factor (EF) using femtosecond laser direct writing on Ag+-doped phosphate glass followed by chemical plating at similar to 40 degrees C. Silver seeds were first photoreduced using a femtosecond laser in a laser-irradiated area and then transformed into silver nanoparticles of suitable size for SERS application in the subsequent chemical plating. Rhodamine 6G was used as a probing molecule to investigate the enhancement effect of a Raman signal on the substrate. Nearly homogenous enhancement of the Raman signal over the Substrate was achieved, and the EF of the substrate was controlled to some extent by adjusting fabrication parameters. Moreover, the ability of forming a SERS platform in an embedded microfluidic chamber would be of great use for establishing a compact lab-on-a-chip device based on Raman analysis.

内蒙古退化草原对不同类型干扰的响应研究

本文结合野外调查、野外实验和模型模拟方法研究了内蒙古退化草原在继续放牧和啮齿类动物活动干扰下，植物多样性、种群空间格局、种间空间关联、小尺度鼠丘和小尺度空斑（Gap）上植被发展动态的生态响应。研究结果如下： （1）经过长期不同强度的放牧干扰后，无牧条件下植被盖度显著低于其它三个放牧（轻牧、中牧、重牧）条件下的植被盖度，而其它三个放牧条件之间的植被盖度差异不显著;无牧条件下羊草成为群落的优势种，轻牧和中牧条件下冷蒿依然是群落的优势种，这三种条件下寸草苔的种群盖度最大;重牧条件下优势种变为星毛委陵菜，并且其种群盖度最大;不同放牧退化阶段指示植物的种群盖度随放牧强度增大的变化趋势是：冷蒿为先增大后减小，而星毛委陵菜为先急剧增大，然后平缓增大，最后再急剧增大;植物多样性和均匀度指数在中牧条件下最大，在无牧条件下最小，说明中牧条件下群落的多样性最高，无牧条件下群落的多样性最小，而优势度指数的变化趋势和它们正相反。 （2）放牧对星毛委陵菜（或糙隐子草）种群空间格局有显著影响，即使在同一放牧强度下其种群在不同尺度上的空间格局存在显著差异。在小尺度上，植物种群主要呈现为集聚分布;同一放牧强度下随着尺度的增大，集聚分布趋向于随机和均匀分布;随着放牧强度的增大，物种的集聚分布消失的空间尺度缩短。 （3）不同放牧强度下，冷蒿和星毛委陵菜之间的空间关联存在显著的差异。在无牧和轻牧条件下，冷蒿和星毛委陵菜在小尺度（0-100cm）上主要呈负关联的空间关系，而在中牧和重牧条件下除了呈负关联的空间关系外，两个物种在空间上还是相互独立的。同时，放牧强度的增大缩小了负关联程度的峰值（最小值）。放牧强度越大，两物种之间的空间关系由负关联转变为相互独立的空间尺度越小（距离越短）。 （4）草原黄鼠鼠丘干扰显著降低了植物物种的丰富度（24种），同样，减少了不同功能组内的物种数，特别是多年生非禾本科草类减少的物种数最多;和周围的未受鼠丘干扰的植被比较，鼠丘上植物多样性减少了1.42，优势度减少了4.21，而均匀度增加了0.06;鼠丘上，多年生植物出现频率(0.37)大约是一年生植物出现频率(0.13)的四倍。具有高抗埋藏性的物种（寸草苔）和抗埋藏性的物种（冷蒿、冰草和糙隐子草）具有相对较高的出现频率。对于功能组来说，多年生非禾本科草类(PF, EF=0.51)具有最大的出现频率，接下来依次是多年生根茎禾草(PR, EF=0.46)、灌木和半灌木(SS, EF=0.32)、多年生丛生禾草(PB, EF=0.25)、一年生和两年生植物(AB, EF=0.13);鼠丘上，寸草苔的密度最大（244.43 个体/米2)。多年生非禾本科草类的密度(130.74个体/米2)远大于其他功能组的密度（PR，34.76个体/米2;PB，16.52个体/米2;AB，14.31个体/米2;SS，12.39个体/米2）;鼠丘上植被地上生物量(35.90克/米2)远远小于外围对照植被地上生物量(211.54克/米2)。冷蒿的地上生物量最大，其次是寸草苔。对于功能组，SS最大 (8.44克/米2) ，其次是PF (7.17克/米2)，这两个功能组的地上生物量远大于其他三个功能组的地上生物量（PR, PB和 AB分别是 3.23克/米2、1.40克/米2和2.49克/米2）。 （5）干扰产生空斑的拓殖受空斑大小和放牧历史的影响，植物拓殖空斑的方式随空斑形成后的时间而变化。空斑直径越大，其被拓殖的机会越大;具有高强度放牧历史群落中的空斑更易被植物拓殖;第一年对空斑的拓殖主要通过种子萌发;第二年，种子萌发方式（特别是一年生植物）拓殖空斑的比例有所降低，而通过地下根茎的克隆繁殖拓殖空斑的比例有所增加。

Mitochondrial DNA variation, effective female population size and population history of the endangered Chinese sturgeon, Acipenser sinensis

The anadromous Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis), mainly endemic to the Yangtze River in China, is an endangered fish species. The natural population has declined since the Gezhouba Dam blocked its migratory route to the spawning grounds in 1981. In the near future, the completion of the Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest hydroelectric project, may further impact this species by altering the water flow of the Yangtze River. Little is currently known about the population genetic structure of the Chinese sturgeon. In this study, DNA sequence data were determined from the control region (D-loop) of the mitochondrial genome of adult sturgeons (n = 106) that were collected between 1995-2000. The molecular data were used to investigate genetic variation, effective female population size and population history of the Chinese sturgeon in the Yangtze River. Our results indicate that the reduction in abundance did not change genetic variation of the Chinese sturgeon, and that the population underwent an expansion in the past. AMOVA analysis indicated that 98.7% of the genetic variability occurred within each year's spawning populations, the year of collection had little influence on the diversity of annual temporary samples. The relative large effective female population size (N-ef) indicates that good potential exists for the recovery of this species in the future. Strikingly, the ratio of N-ef to the census female population size (N-f) is unusually high (0.77-0.93). This may be the result of a current bottleneck in the population of the Chinese sturgeon that is likely caused by human intervention.

Multiple in-to-Africa dispersals of labeonin fishes (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) revealed by molecular phylogenetic analysis

An out-of-Africa dispersal route has been proposed for many organisms, including modern man. However, counter examples of in-to-Africa dispersal routes are less common. In the present article, the phylogenetic relationships within the Labeoninae, a subfamily of cyprinid fishes distributed in Asia and Africa, were analyzed to investigate the biogeographic processes governing the modern distribution of these Asian and African cyprinids. The mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b gene was used as a molecular marker. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that the subfamily Labeoninae is a monophyletic group, with some Asian labeonins located at the basal position. Two subclades were found that contained both African and Asian species, which highlighted a need for further biogeographic analysis. Based on this analysis, it is proposed that the centre of origin of the Labeoninae was in East Asia. Molecular clock estimation suggests that the Labeoninae arose by the Early Miocene (similar to 23 MYA) during the period of the second Tibetan uplift. Subsequently, two dispersal events of labeonins from Asia into Africa occured in the Early Miocene (similar to 20 MYA) and Late Miocene (similar to 9 MYA) and serve as examples counter to out-of-Africa dispersal.

Molecular analysis of silver crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio Bloch) clones by SCAR markers

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) molecular markers specific for one, two or three clones have been identified from five gynogenetic clones of silver crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio Bloch) using RAPD markers developed earlier. In this study, three RAPD markers (RA1-PA, RA2-EF and RA4-D) produced by Opj-1, and two RAPD DNA fragments (RA3-PAD and RA5-D) produced by Opj-7, were selected for molecular cloning and sequencing. Sequence data indicated that there were identical 801-bp nucleotide sequences in the shared marker RA1-PA cloned respectively from clones P and A, and the shared marker RA2-EF (which was cloned from clones E and F), were also of identical 958-by nucleotide sequences. The nucleotide sequences of the shared marker RA3-PAD fragments were also similar for 1181 by among clones P, A and D. The specific fragment RA4-D was composed of 628 bp, and the fragment RA5-D from clone D contained 385 nucleotides. According to the nucleotide sequences, we designed and synthesized five pairs of sequence characterized amplified regions (SCAR) primers to identify the specific fragments in these gynogenetic clones of silver crucian carp. Only individuals from clones P and A amplified a specific band using a pair of SCI-PA primers synthesized according to the marker RA1-PA sequences, whereas no products were detected in individuals from clones D, E and F. The PCR products amplified using SC2-EF and SC3-PAD primers were as expected. Furthermore, the pair of SC4-D primers amplified specific bands only in individuals from clone D, although weak bands could be produced in all individuals of the five clones when lower annealing temperatures were used. However, an additional pair of SC5-D primers designed from the RA5-D marker sequences could amplify a DNA band in individuals from clones P, A and D, and the same weak band was produced in clone E, whereas no products were detected in individuals from clone F. Searches in GenBank revealed that the 385-bp DNA fragment from RA5-D was homologous to the 5' end of gonadotropin I beta subunit 2 gene and growth hormone gene. No homologous sequences were found for other markers in GenBank. The SCAR markers identified in this study will offer a powerful, easy, and rapid method for discrimination of different clones and for genetic analyses that examine their origins and unique reproductive modes in crucian carp. Furthermore, they will likely benefit future selective breeding programs as reliable and reproducible molecular markers. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

High-temperature AlN interlayer for crack-free AlGaN growth on GaN

This paper presents a study of the transformation of high-temperature AlN (HT-AlN) interlayer (IL) and its effect on the strain relaxation of Al0.25Ga0.75N/HT-AlN/GaN. The HT-AlN IL capped with Al0.25Ga0.75N transforms into AlGaN IL in which the Al composition increases with the HT-AlN IL thickness while the total Ga content keeps nearly constant. During the HT-AlN IL growth on GaN, the tensile stress is relieved through the formation of V trenches. The filling up of the V trenches by the subsequent Al0.25Ga0.75N growth is identified as the Ga source for the IL transformation, whose effect is very different from a direct growth of HT-AlGaN IL. The a-type dislocations generated during the advancement of V trenches and their filling up propagate into the Al0.25Ga0.75N overlayer. The a-type dislocation density increases dramatically with the IL thickness, which greatly enhances the strain relaxation of Al0.25Ga0.75N. (c) 2008 American Institute of Physics.

体细胞核移植影响因素的研究

尽管体细胞核移植(somatic cell nuclear transfer, SCNT)技术仍然处于 起步发展阶段，但是随着体细胞核移植技术在近些年来的飞速发展，人们已经得 到了多种哺乳动物体细胞核移植的存活后代。体细胞核移植技术在生物医药、农 业及其它领域的应用显示了这项技术的巨大发展前景。另一方面，人们发现体细 胞核移植效率低下并且体细胞克隆动物存在许多缺陷，这些主要是由于核移植技 术，供体细胞选择，体外培养系统以及卵母细胞的状态等的差异导致的。本研究 主要围绕着这些因素在体细胞核移植过程中对于克隆胚胎植入前后发育的影响 而开展，目的在于提高体细胞核移植的效率。 实验一，研究了几个因素对克隆胚胎发育和克隆效率的影响，为提高体细胞 核移植效率提供一些依据。这部分研究主要包括四倍体半克隆小鼠研究和蛋白酶 体抑制剂在克隆胚胎和孤雌激活胚胎发育中的影响。四倍体体细胞半克隆 （tetraploid semi-cloned , TSC）胚胎的体外发育结果表明，虽然TSC 胚胎可 能避免二倍体半克隆胚胎发育过程中的非整倍体现象，但是仍然不能形成胎儿。 另外，利用蛋白酶体抑制剂MG132 处理克隆胚胎的结果表明，虽然MG132 通过抑 制成熟促进因子（maturation promoting factors，MPF）活性的降低可以提高 克隆胚胎的体外发育率，但是没有改变克隆胚胎的质量。 实验二，研究了克隆技术在克隆胚胎构建和发育上的影响。首先，我们研究 了完整颗粒细胞注射到卵母细胞中所引起的变化。我们发现完整的颗粒细胞注入 到卵母细胞中之后很快引起细胞膜裂解和细胞核碎裂，从而导致激活后重构胚胎 的碎裂。这一实验表明完整供体细胞核注入的方法不适用于小鼠体细胞克隆。接 下来我们研究了不同的核移植技术――利用piezo 的直接注射法（piezoelectric microinjection，PEM）和电融合法（Electrofusion，EF）――对植入前后的克隆胚 胎以及出生后的克隆动物的影响。研究的结果发现，在PEM 法中，提高piezo 脉 冲的强度会导致供体细胞核DNA 断裂增加，使植入前克隆胚胎的细胞数目减少， 凋亡增加，从而降低克隆胚胎的质量。相反，在用EF 法产生的胚胎中细胞核DNA 的断裂很少，克隆胚胎质量相对较好。实验的结果表明，由于两种克隆技术利用 的原理不同，会对克隆胚胎的发育产生一定的影响，从而改变克隆的效率。 实验三，研究了猕猴体细胞克隆胚胎早期发育过程中细胞核内有丝分裂器蛋 白[Nuclear Mitotic Apparatus Protein，NuMA]的表达和分布。尽管在有些猕猴体 细胞核移植胚胎中没有检测到NuMA 的正确表达和分布并且有些胚胎出现了微 管组装异常，但是大多数猕猴体细胞核移植胚胎具有正常的NuMA 蛋白表达和 正常的核型。通过改进操作技术我们得到了可以发育到正常囊胚的猕猴体细胞核 移植胚胎。这些结果提示猕猴SCNT 胚胎发育失败的原因不是NuMA 等重要蛋 白的缺失。

金环蛇蛇毒丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂和三种胡蜂蜂毒的研究

蛇毒和蜂毒是提供药理学活性分子的丰富来源，它们富含肽和蛋白，包括一 些酶类和毒素。 丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂广泛存在于动物、植物和微生物体内，参与许多重要的 生理过程，如血液凝集、纤维蛋白溶解、细胞凋亡、发育以及炎症反应和补体活 化等（van Gent D. et al., 2003）。通过凝胶过滤、离子交换和反向高压液相色谱， 我们从金环蛇毒液中纯化得到一种天然的丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，命名为 bungaruskunin。并且从该蛇的毒腺cDNA 文库中克隆到了它的核苷酸序列。 bungaruskunin 预测的前体由83 个氨基酸组成，包括含有24 个氨基酸的信号肽 和含有59 个氨基酸的成熟肽。它与一种由红腹伊澳蛇（Pseudechis porphyriacus） 的cDNA 预测到的丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂blackelin 具有最大相似性，达64％。 Bungaruskunin 是一种Kunitz 型的蛋白酶抑制剂，具有一个保守的Kunitz 结构域， 能够抑制胰蛋白酶、胰凝乳蛋白酶和弹性蛋白酶。通过对金环蛇毒腺cDNA 文库 的筛选，我们还得到了另外两条β-bungarotoxin B 链，Bungaruskunin 的整体结 构与β-bungarotoxin B 链相似，特别是它们都具有高度保守的信号肽序列。这些 发现强烈地表明蛇毒Kunitz/BPTI 蛋白酶抑制剂与神经毒性的类似物可能起源于 共同的祖先。 肥大细胞脱粒肽是从膜翅目昆虫的毒液中鉴别出的一个小肽家族，是一种具 有潜在的药物治疗作用的诱导活性分子（Xueqing Xu et al., 2006）。来源于蜂类的 缓激肽样的类似物vespakinin 家族是一种具有调节和激素功能的活性成分，与哺 乳动物和两栖动物的缓激肽类似（Nakajima T., 1984）。本研究对三种胡蜂的 毒液进行了一系列的活性检测，发现黑尾胡蜂的蜂毒对白色念珠菌Candida albicans 和金黄色葡萄球菌 Staphylococcus aureus 有抑制作用。凹纹胡蜂和黑尾 胡蜂的蜂毒具有微弱的磷酯酶A2 活性。通过凝胶过滤和反向高压液相色谱，没 有得到相关的活性组分。通过对三种胡蜂毒腺cDNA 文库的筛选，我们得到了2 条来源于黑尾胡蜂的核苷酸序列，Blast 分析表明，其中一条编码类似肥大细胞 脱粒肽，但未克隆到全长，序列比对结果显示其与来源于大胡蜂（Vespa magnifica） 的Mastoparan-like peptide 12c precursor（GenBank accession A0SPI0）的核苷酸序 列相似性达98％（Xueqing Xu et al., 2006）；另一条编码缓激肽类似物，命名为 Hw-bradykinin，序列比对结果显示其与来源于大胡蜂（Vespa magnifica）的 vespakinin-M precursor（GenBank accessionABG75944）的核苷酸相似率达96% (Zouhong Zhou et al., 2006)。

雨蛙皮肤分泌液中两种活性蛋白结构和功能的研究

在本研究中我们首次从雨蛙皮肤分泌液中分离得到了一种神经毒素（命名为Anntoxin）和一种干细胞自我更新支持因子（命名为AnSF）。随后，我们通过构建雨蛙皮肤cDNA 文库，利用特异引物筛选到Anntoxin 和AnSF 的cDNA 编码序列，前者的Gene Bank 登录号为FJ598043，后者还在等待分配登录号。Anntoxin 具有60 个氨基酸，是一种Kunitz 类型的丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，构建Anntoxin 的3D-NMR 溶液结构，证实Anntoxin 不同于有三对二硫键（键组合模式：1-6，2-4，3-5）的Kunitz 类型丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，它只有两对二硫键（组合模式：1-4，2-3）。AnSF 具有123 个氨基酸，在C 端具有和Calmadolin 同源的两个EF 手指结构，能够支持人类胚胎干细胞（hESC）和猴神经干细胞（rNSC）的自我更新。为了进行Anntoxin 的生物活性和结构分析，我们在体外成功表达了 Anntoxin，获得了大量的重组Anntoxin（rAnntoxin）。经过生物活性分析， rAnntoxin 和天然分离到的Anntoxin 生物活性相当，都具有很强的胰蛋白酶抑制剂活性。Anntoxin 是一种Kunitz 类型的丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，和来源于芋螺（Cone Snail）的神经毒素Conkunitzin-S1，黑色眼镜蛇毒液（black cobra, Dendroaspis polylepis polylepis）的树突毒素δ-DaTX 或蛋白酶抑制剂K 分别具有32.8%和36.7%的相同序列，和鱼类（fish）来源的Stonustoxin 也有一定的同源性。利用膜片钳技术分别检测Anntoxin 对大鼠背根神经节（rat DRG）上Na+通道，K+通道，Ca2+通道的作用，结果证明Anntoxin 对河豚毒素敏感（TTX-S）的钠离子通道（Nav）有较强的抑制活性，对 K+通道，Ca2+通道作用不明显。随后我们在非洲爪蟾卵母细胞上表达几种典型和常用于测试对亚型K+通道作用的Kv1.1，Kv1.2，Kv1.3，Kv2.1 和 Kv4.2，Kv4.3，Anntoxin 对这些亚型K+通道上的K+电流都没有明显影响。我们成功构建了Anntoxin 的3D-NMR 溶液结构（NMR 号：PDB ID 2KCR， BMRB ID 16094），证实Anntoxin 具有典型的Kunitz 结构，由反向平行的 β–折叠片和α–螺旋及转角组成梨形结构。利用RT-PCR，WesternBlot 以及 ELISA 技术，发现在皮肤、脑、肝、胃和肠中都能检测Anntoxin mRNA 转录，但只在皮肤、脑、肝和胃中有蛋白表达，表达量分别为29.5、5.39、 4.80 和2.02 微克/克鲜重，可以看出Anntoxin 在皮肤中大量表达，是皮肤分泌液中非常重要的组成部分。因为皮肤是雨蛙接触外界的第一屏障，雨蛙的生存环境中存在很多潜在威胁，比如微生物、吸血昆虫、鸟类、爬行动物、哺乳动物等，所以Anntoxin 有可能是雨蛙适应环境的重要化学武器，于是我们测试了Anntoxin 对甜菜夜蛾幼虫（Laphygma exigua Hubner）、水蛇（Enhydris plumbea）、鹌鹑（Coturnix coturnix）、昆明小鼠（Kunming mice）的急性毒性，其LD50 分别为50，450，2500 和3000 微克/千克体重，说明在华西雨蛙皮肤中大量表达的Anntoxin 对几类潜在天敌确实有较强的杀灭作用。为了检测AnSF 的生物学活性，我们在体外成功表达了AnSF，获得了大量rAnSF。设计三个浓度梯度10、100 和500ng/ml，把AnSF 和hESC 共培养，发现在10~100 ng/ml 浓度时对hESC 的自我更新有支持作用；设计三个浓度梯度10、100 和500ng/ml，把AnSF 和rNSC 共培养，发现在 10ng/ml 时对rNSC 的自我更新有较强的支持作用。在超过500ng/ml 高浓度时，AnSF 对hESC 和rNSC 都有明显的细胞毒性作用，对rNSC 的毒性作用更明显。利用RT-PCR 技术，我们检测了雨蛙的皮肤、肌肉、肝脏、胰脏、胃、肠、心脏和脑，AnSF 只在皮肤中有少量表达。这表明AnSF 可能只参与雨蛙皮肤干细胞库的维持，保持皮肤内环境稳定，因为蛙类的皮肤细胞要负责产生大量活性物质参与先天免疫和抗氧化等重要的生理活动，需要经常更新，而AnSF 的存在可能保证雨蛙皮肤干细胞库容量稳定，不断分化出各种成熟的皮肤细胞来使皮肤能够得到足够和及时的更新，保证其功能的正常行使。所以AnSF 是维持华西雨蛙皮肤内环境稳定的重要物质。

森林流域单元水文模型的构建与应用

目前全球缺水、水污染、洪涝灾害以及水土流失仍然非常严重，尤其在我国北方地区。流域水文模型可用来进行不同需水管理的情景分析，为解决我国水问题提供科学依据。分布式水文模型是流域水文模型的发展方向，具有显著特点：1）应用前景广泛，不仅可以模拟流域水文过程，还可以协助模拟泥沙或污染物的运移过程，为水利工程设计、水土保持、环境保护等领域提供技术支持；2）能够预测流域土地利用或气候变化下的流域水文响应过程变化，为管理部门提供决策支持；3）模型所需要的参数全部具有物理意义，可通过实际测量确定，适合模拟实测系列较短或是无观测流域的水文过程；4）对于目前国际水文界的前沿问题—水文尺度转换提供了一种有效的解决途径。 然而分布式水文模型还不完善，如1)真实性问题。对一些水文过程和边界条件还不确定。2)尺度转换问题。目前很少考虑尺度对参数有效性的影响。3)检验问题。还无法判断对有些难以测量的水文状态变量的模拟正确与否。4)计算时间和数据存储的问题。有些分布式水文模型虽然具有很强的水文物理基础和完善的模型结构，但是计算时间过长和(或)数据存储过大，难以应用。上述问题的核心就是对分布式水文模型的核心—单元水文模型的研究不够，需要为进一步完善单元水文模型进行研究。 本文采用饱和入渗理论、Saint-Venant方程、Richards方程、Penman-Monteith方程等等构建了以有限差分法求解的适用于森林流域的单元水文模型，并通过实验室模拟试验和坡地径流场资料进行了验证，主要结论为： 通过不同坡度和不同雨强下的室内坡面产汇流实验模拟，表明：该模型模拟的坡面流和壤中流过程与实测过程基本一致，峰现时间、径流历时、峰值流量、出流总量模拟值与实测值的相对误差均较小，基本小于10%。模型的模拟精度较高，实用性较强，为深入研究壤中流机制和改进流域降雨-径流模型提供了理论依据。 通过坡地径流观测场实测资料的验证，表明：该模型模拟的坡面流过程精度较高，累计流量的精度更高于小时过程的精度，离差系数、效率系数、确定系数均较理想，具有应用价值，有助于改善分布式水文模型在森林流域的模拟效果。

Effects of magnetic configuration on hot electrons in highly charged ECR plasma

To investigate the hot electrons in highly charged electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma, Bremsstrahlung radiations were measured on two ECR ion sources at the Institute of Modern Physics. Used as a comparative index of the mean energy of the hot electrons, a spectral temperature, Tspe, is derived through a linear fitting of the spectra in a semi-logarithmic representation. The influences of the external source parameters, especially the magnetic configuration, on the hot electrons are studied systematically. This study has experimentally demonstrated the importance of high microwave frequency and high magnetic field in the electron resonance heating to produce a high density of hot electrons, which is consistent with the empirical ECR scaling laws. The experimental results have again shown that a good compromise is needed between the ion extraction and the plasma confinement for an efficient production of highly charged ion beams. In addition, this investigation has shown that the correlation between the mean energy of the hot electrons and the magnetic field gradient at the ECR is well in agreement with the theoretical models.中文摘要：ECR(电子回旋共振)离子源是产生稳定的强流多电荷态离子束流最有效装置。全永磁 ECR 离子源因其独特的特点为很多中小型多电荷态离子束流实验平台与离子注入机等系统所采用，为后者产生重复性好、稳定性强的多电荷态离子束流。本文着重论述了中国科学院近代物理研究所研制的几台全永磁多电荷态ECR离子源及其特性与典型性能，如能产生强流高电荷态离子束流的高性能全永磁离子源LAPECR2，能产生强流中低电荷态离子束流的LAPECR1，能产生多电荷态重金属离子束流的LAPECR1-M等。这些性能稳定的离子源为提高近代物理研究所相关试验平台的性能提供了关键的束流品质保障。

Validating MODIS-derived land surface evapotranspiration with in situ measurements at two AmeriFlux sites in a semiarid region

Reducing uncertainties in the estimation of land surface evapotranspiration (ET) from remote-sensing data is essential to better understand earth-atmosphere interactions. This paper demonstrates the applicability of temperature-vegetation index triangle (T-s-VI) method in estimating regional ET and evaporative fraction (EF, defined as the ratio of latent heat flux to surface available energy) from MODIS/Terra and MODIS/Aqua products in a semiarid region. We have compared the satellite-based estimates of ET and EF with eddy covariance measurements made over 4 years at two semiarid grassland sites: Audubon Ranch (AR) and Kendall Grassland (KG). The lack of closure in the eddy covariance measured surface energy components is shown to be more serious at MODIS/Aqua overpass time than that at MODIS/Terra overpass time for both AR and KG sites. The T-s-VI-derived EF could reproduce in situ EF reasonably well with BIAS and root-mean-square difference (RMSD) of less than 0.07 and 0.13, respectively. Surface net radiation has been shown to be systematically overestimated by as large as about 60 W/m(2). Satisfactory validation results of the T-s-VI-derived sensible and latent heat fluxes have been obtained with RMSD within 54 W/m(2). The simplicity and yet easy use of the T-s-VI triangle method show a great potential in estimating regional ET with highly acceptable accuracy that is of critical significance in better understanding water and energy budgets on the Earth. Nevertheless, more validation work should be carried out over various climatic regions and under other different land use/land cover conditions in the future.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering of 4-aminothiophenol self-assembled monolayers in sandwich structure with nanoparticle shape dependence: Off-surface plasmon resonance condition

A universal metal-molecule-metal sandwich architecture by the self-assembly of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) and Au NPs of various shapes interconnected with 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) molecules was presented. These Ag NPs/4-ATP/Au NPs sandwich structures were characterized by surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) using an off-surface plasmon resonance condition. Enhancement factors (EF) on the order of 10(8) for 9b(b(2)) vibration mode were observed for the 4-ATP self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in such sandwich structures. The factors are 2 orders of magnitude larger than that on the monolayer of Au NPs of various shapes under similar condition. More importantly, remarkable increase in the intensity of b(2) vibrational modes, which is characteristic of the charge transfer (CT) behavior between metal NPs and 4-ATP molecules, was observed in these sandwich structures under 1064 nm excitation. The obtained EF on these sandwich structure for 9b(b(2)) is larger than that for 7a vibration mode by a factor of similar to 10(2), demonstrating the importance of the contribution of the CT mechanism and the CT behavior of metal contacts, which play a significant role in metal-molecule-metal nanosystems.
