However, there was limited research about the removal mechanism of azole fungicides in the biological treatment of WWTPs. Imidazole fungicide climbazole and triazole fungicide fluconazole were selected to investigate the biodegradation mechanism of azole fungicides in activated sludge under aerobic conditions. Climbazole was found to be adsorbed to solid sludge and resulted in quick biodegradation. The degradation of climbazole in the aerobic activated sludge system was fitted well by the first-order kinetic model with a half-life of 5.3 days, while fluconazole tended to stay in liquid and had only about 30% of loss within 77 days incubation. Ten biotransformation products of climbazole were identified by high resolution mass spectrometry using suspect and non-target screening method. But no biodegradation products of fluconazole were identified due to its limited removal. The possible biodegradation pathways for climbazole were proposed based on the products identification and pathway prediction system, and involves oxidative dehalogenation, side chain oxidation and azole ring loss. The findings from this study suggest that it should be a concern for the persistence of fluconazole in the environment.展开更多

The period of AMOC in FGOALS-g2 is double peaked at 20 and 32 years according to the power spectrum, and 22 years according to an auto-correlation analysis, which shows very obvious decadal variability. Like many other coupled climate models, the decadal variability of AMOC in FGOALS-g2 is closely related to the convection that occurs in the Labrador Sea region. Deep convection in the Labrador Sea in FGOALS-g2 leads the AMOC maximum by 3-4 years. The contributions of thermal and haline effects to the variability of the convection in three different regions [the Labrador, Irminger and Greenland-Iceland- Norwegian （GIN） Seas] were analyzed for FGOALS-g2. The variability of convection in the Labrador and Irminger Seas is thermally dominant, while that in the colder GIN Seas can be mainly attributed to salinity changes due to the lower thermal expansion. By comparing the simulation results from FGOALS-g2 and 11 other models, it was found that AMOC variability can be attributed to salinity changes for longer periods （longer than 35 years） and to temperature changes for shorter periods.展开更多

Previous studies have focused on specific physical processes in the atmospheric and/or oceanic model, but the coupling process in coupled models has not received much attention. To investigate the coupling effect on SW feedback, two versions of an AGCM and their corresponding coupled models are analyzed. Results indicate that the effects of the coupling process in the two versions lead to weakening and enhancement of the negative feedback in the earlier and new versions, respectively, mainly due to their different changes in cloud fraction feedback and dynamical feedback. Further examination of the nonlinearity of the feedback reveals that the opposite coupling effects in the two versions originate from their different responses to El Nio and to La Nia.展开更多

The mechanism to produce zonal wind anomaly over the equatorial western Pacific is studied in this paper. It is shown clearly that zonal wind anomaly over the equatorial western Pacific is closely related to the anomaly of East- Asian winter monsoon. Anomalous strong (weak) East-Asian winter monsoon can excite not only the westerly (easterly) anomaly over the equatorial western Pacific but also a cyc- lonic (an anticyclonic) circulation over the east of the Philip- pines. The above anomalous circulation results from dy- namical impacts of anomalous pressure pattern due to the East-Asian winter monsoon. Because there is westward (eastward) pressure gradient over the equatorial western Pacific, i.e. there is ?? xp <0(> 0), during strong (weak) East-Asian winter monsoon.展开更多
