武汉东湖浮游植物的演变(1956-1975年)和富营养化问题

本文根据1956—1957、1962—1963和1973—1975年在湖北省武汉市东湖进行的三次调查资料,总结了过去二十年内在东湖两个代表性采样站上浮游植物群落生态学的主要变化(包括数量、种类组成、优势种类、多样性指数和初级生产力)。年平均总数在二十年内由每毫升几百个增为几千个。由甲藻和硅藻占优势逐步转变为以绿藻和蓝藻占优势,蓝藻中的大型种类明显增加。年数量变动曲线原来呈春季和秋季两个高峰,但60年代后,已变为夏、秋季的一个蓝藻高峰,而且数量大,延续时间长。浮游植物的年初级生产量和日最高初级生产量也有明显

Long-term (1956-1999) dynamics of phosphorus in a shallow, subtropical Chinese lake with the possible effects of cyanobacterial blooms

This paper describes the long-term dynamics of phosphorus concentrations in both the lake water and the sediment in a subtropical Chinese lake, Lake Donghu. The total phosphorus (TP) concentration in the lake water experienced an upward trend from the 1950s, and peaked in 1983/1984, but declined obviously afterwards. From the 1950s to the 1990s, TP content in the upper 10 cm sediment of the lake increased steadily from 0.307 to 1.68 mg Pg DW-1 at Station I and from 0.151 to 0.89 mg Pg DW-1 at Station II, respectively. The TP increase in the lake water before mid-1980s was mainly attributed to the massive input of sewage P. The outbreak of cyanobacterial blooms coincided with the peaks of TP and Orthophosphate (PO4-P) in the water in mid-1980s, and the maximum TP of the water reached as high as 1.349 mg/1 at Station I and 0.757 mg/l at Station II (in 1984), respectively. The declines of TP and PO4-P in the water after mid-1980s was coincident with the disappearance of cyanobacterial bloom. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Analiza struktury przestrzennej i czasoprzestrzennej maksymalnych opadów dobowych w Polsce w latach 1956-1980

Jednym z wyników prognoz wykonywanych z zastosowaniem globalnych i regionalnych modeli klimatycznych jest odkrycie wysokiego prawdopodobieństwa wzrostu częstości oraz natężenia ekstremalnych opadów. Poznanie prawidłowości ich powtarzalności i zasięgu przestrzennego ma oczywiście bardzo duże znaczenie gospodarcze i społeczne. Dlatego, niezależnie od wprowadzania nowych technik pomiarowych należy dokonywać analizy i reinterpretacji archiwalnych danych, korzystając z możliwości stwarzanych przez rozwój GIS. Głównym celem opracowania jest analiza prawidłowości przestrzennej i czasowej zmienności miesięcznych oraz rocznych maksymalnych dobowych sum opadów (MSDO) z lat 1956-1980, z obszaru Polski. W pracy wykorzystano nowe w geografii polskiej metody geostatystyczne. Do publikacji dołączono dysk DVD ze źródłową bazą danych i najważniejszymi wynikami w postaci numerycznej i kartograficznej.

Two steps forward, one step back: developing the curriculum for training teachers for technical and further education England 1945-1956

This paper discusses the development of provision for the training of teachers in English further and technical education from 1945 to 1956. While these years saw little growth in this provision, they were formative in that the institutional and curricular patterns of teacher training for the diverse fields of technical and further education were developed at this time. The work of the three national centres in Bolton, London and Huddersfield, during the period of the Emergency Training Scheme (ETS) is summarised with particular reference to the influence of the Ministry of Education‟s conditions for ETS colleges and courses. With the ending of the ETS in 1951 the three centres were given permanent status as teacher training colleges which in turn brought them into association with their local universities as constituent colleges of their Area Training Organisations. The consequences of this transfer to the universities for the curriculum and assessment of technical teacher training and the 'policy dichotomy' of teacher training for secondary and technical education are examined.

23. Revisión nomenclatural de la alianza Cistion laurifolii Rivas Goday 1956 y de sus sintaxones subordinados

La alianza Cistion laurifolii (Lavanduletalia stoechadis Br.-Bl. 1940 em. Rivas-Martínez 1968, Cisto-Lavanduletea Br.-Bl. 1940) reúne los jarales dominados por diversas especies de Cistus —principalmente Cistus laurifolius— y Lavandula pedunculata —cantueso endémico del interior de la península Ibérica—, a los que acompañan en algunas asociaciones gayubas (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi var. crassifolia) y ciertos brezos (Erica scoparia, Calluna vulgaris); como rasgo diferencial frente a otras alianzas de la clase destaca la ausencia de diversos caméfitos termófilos.
