The material living conditions of the masses have also been greatly improved. However, the ecological environment has been polluted to a certain extent. Therefore, feasible measures should be found to ensure the smooth solution of ecological problems. At this stage, countries all over the world have to face up to the ecological and environmental problems. The energy shortage is becoming more and more serious, and the environmental pollution is becoming more and more severe. Especially, the wanton development of industry has greatly affected the work and life of the people, and the health of the people will also be harmed. Judging from the current situation in our country, if we want to ensure that society can achieve sustainable development, we must find feasible measures to achieve the goal of environmental protection. Effectively completing the environmental monitoring work can make the effect of environmental protection more ideal. Through it, the necessary information can be obtained smoothly. In this way, relevant personnel can have a practical understanding of various factors that affect the environment, and on this basis, find effective protection strategies.

To comply with the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, members of the International Maritime Organization(IMO) must equip their ships with on-board treatment systems to eliminate organism release with ballast water. There are many challenges associated with the implementation of this IMO guideline, one of which is the selection of species for testing the ecological impacts of the treated ballast water. In the United States, ballast water toxicity test methods have been defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. However, the test methods had not been finalized in China until the toxicity test methods for ballast water were established in 2008. The Chinese methods have been based on species from three trophic levels: Skeletonema costatum, Neomysis awatschensis, and Ctenogobius gymnauchen. All three species live in broad estuarine and open sea areas of China; they are sensitive to reference toxicants and acclimatize easily to different conditions. In this paper, the biological characteristics, test processes and statistical analysis methods are presented for the three species. Results indicate that the methods for evaluating these three organisms can be included in the ecological toxicity tests for treated ballast water in China.展开更多

文摘Arid mountain ecosystems are highly sensitive to hydrothermal stress and land use intensification,yet where net primary productivity(NPP)degradation is likely to persist and what drives it remain unclear in the Tianshan Mountains of Northwest China.We integrated multi-source remote sensing with the Carnegie–Ames–Stanford Approach(CASA)model to estimate NPP during 2000–2020,assessed trend persistence using the Hurst exponent,and identified key drivers and nonlinear thresholds with Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost)and SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP).Total NPP averaged 55.74 Tg C/a and ranged from 48.07 to 65.91 Tg C/a from 2000 to 2020,while regional mean NPP rose from 138.97 to 160.69 g C/(m^(2)·a).Land use transfer analysis showed that grassland expanded mainly at the expense of unutilized land and that cropland increased overall.Although NPP increased across 64.11%of the region during 2000–2020,persistence analysis suggested that 53.93%of the Tianshan Mountains was prone to continued NPP decline,including 36.41%with significant projected decline and 17.52%with weak projected decline;these areas formed degradation hotspots concentrated in the central and northern Tianshan Mountains.In contrast,potential improvement was limited(strong persistent improvement:4.97%;strong anti-persistent improvement:0.36%).Driver attribution indicated that land use dominated NPP variability(mean absolute SHAP value=29.54%),followed by precipitation(16.03%)and temperature(11.05%).SHAP dependence analyses showed that precipitation effects stabilized at 300.00–400.00 mm,and temperature exhibited an inverted U-shaped response with a peak near 0.00°C.These findings indicated that persistent degradation risk arose from hydrothermal constraints interacting with land use conversion,highlighting the need for threshold-informed,spatially targeted management to sustain carbon sequestration in arid mountain ecosystems.

文摘Atmospheric oxidation capacity(AOC)refers to the oxidation capacity of atmospheric chemical processes for major pollutants.A comprehensive observation campaign was conducted on a typical PM_(2.5)pollution event in Urumqi,Northwest China,from January 15 to February 15,2024.Four typical cases representing PM_(2.5)levels from non-polluted to heavily polluted periods were selected to estimate AOC,OH reactivity,their relationship with secondary components,and the HO_(x)budget in PM_(2.5)using the Framework for 0-D Atmospheric Modeling model.Aromatics and alkanes contributed 54%-79%and 18%-46%of secondary organic aerosols(SOA)formation,respectively.The sulfur oxidation ratio(SOR)and nitrogen oxidation ratio(NOR)increased with rising PM_(2.5)levels.As AOC increased,SOR showed the same trend,while NOR and SOA decreased slightly,and ammonia oxidation ratio values remained almost unchanged.OH radicals were the primary oxidants during the daytime,whereas NO_(3)played a dominant role at nighttime.CO(24%-51%),NO2(27%-34%),and alkenes(7%-12%)were the dominant contributors to OH reactivity.The HO_(2)+NO reaction pathway contributes 67%-84%to the production of OH,while Others(including carbonyl compounds photolysis,the permutation reactions of RO2,etc.),RO_(2)+NO and OH+CO reaction pathways were the main pathways for HO2 production.A comprehensive understanding of the interactions among AOC,SOA,and radical cycling is crucial for formulating effective air quality management strategies aimed at mitigating secondary pollution under diverse atmospheric conditions.

文摘To curb the worsening tropospheric ozone(O_(3))pollution problem in China,a rapid and accurate identification of O_(3)-precursor sensitivity(OPS)is a crucial prerequisite for formulating effective contingency O_(3) pollution control strategies.However,currently widely-used methods,such as statistical models and numerical models,exhibit inherent limitations in identifying OPS in a timely and accurate manner.In this study,we developed a novel approach to identify OPS based on eXtreme Gradient Boosting model,Shapley additive explanation(SHAP)al-gorithm,and volatile organic compound(VOC)photochemical decay adjustment,using the meteorology and speciated pollutant monitoring data as the input.By comparing the difference in SHAP values between base sce-nario and precursor reduction scenario for nitrogen oxides(NO_(x))and VOCs,OPS was divided into NO_(x)-limited,VOCs-limited and transition regime.Using the long-lasting O_(3) pollution episode in the autumn of 2022 at the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area(GBA)as an example,we demonstrated large spatiotemporal heterogeneities of OPS over the GBA,which were generally shifted from NO_(x)-limited to VOCs-limited from September to October and more inclined to be VOCs-limited at the central and NO_(x)-limited in the peripheral areas.This study developed an innovative OPS identification method by comparing the difference in SHAP value before and after precursor emission reduction.Our method enables the accurate identification of OPS in the time scale of seconds,thereby providing a state-of-the-art tool for the rapid guidance of spatial-specific O_(3) control strategies.
文摘Triclosan(TCS) poses harmful risks to ecosystems and human health owing to its endocrine-disrupting effects.Therefore,developing an efficient and sustainable technology to degrade TCS is urgently needed.Herein,cobalt oxyhydroxide @covalent organic frameworks(CoOOH@COFs) S-scheme heterojunction was synthesized,which combined the visible-light-driven photocatalysis and peroxymonosulfate(PMS) activation to synergistically generate abundant reactive oxygen species(ROSs) for TCS degradation.The degradation efficiency of TCS reached 100 % within 8 min in the Vis-CoOOH@COFs/PMS system,and the reaction rate constant was 0.456 min^(-1),which was nearly 1.90 and 2.85 times that of single Co OOH and COFs,and2.36 times that under dark condition,respectively.The density functional theory(DFT) calculations confirmed the energy band bending of CoOOH@COFs and S-scheme charge transport from COFs to Co OOH.Both experimental and theoretical analyses indicated that Co OOH@COFs in photocatalytic-PMS activation systems synergistically facilitated photo-generated carrier separation,enhanced interfacial electron transfer,accelerated PMS activation,and generated multiple ROSs.In particular,photogenerated electrons(e^(-))accelerated the Co(Ⅲ)/Co(Ⅱ) redox cycle,while the PMS captured the e-,which significantly decreased the charge combination of Co OOH@COFs.Radicals(O_(2)^(·-),^(·)OH,and SO_(4)^(·-)) and non-radicals(such as ^(1)O_(2),h^(+),and e^(-)) were both presented in the Vis-CoOOH@COFs/PMS system,with O_(2)^(-) playing a dominant role in TCS degradation.Furthermore,the pathway of TCS degradation and toxicity of intermediates were explored by DFT calculation and transformation product identification.Importantly,the environmentally friendly CoOOH@COFs S-scheme heterojunction exhibited excellent stability and reusability.In conclusion,this study innovatively designed an S-scheme heterojunction in the photocatalytic-PMS activation system,providing guidance and theoretical support for efficient and eco-friendly wastewater treatment.

文摘Ballast water has been a topic of concern for some time because of its potential to introduce invasive species to new habitats. To comply with the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, members of the International Maritime Organization(IMO) must equip their ships with on-board treatment systems to eliminate organism release with ballast water. There are many challenges associated with the implementation of this IMO guideline, one of which is the selection of species for testing the ecological impacts of the treated ballast water. In the United States, ballast water toxicity test methods have been defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. However, the test methods had not been finalized in China until the toxicity test methods for ballast water were established in 2008. The Chinese methods have been based on species from three trophic levels: Skeletonema costatum, Neomysis awatschensis, and Ctenogobius gymnauchen. All three species live in broad estuarine and open sea areas of China; they are sensitive to reference toxicants and acclimatize easily to different conditions. In this paper, the biological characteristics, test processes and statistical analysis methods are presented for the three species. Results indicate that the methods for evaluating these three organisms can be included in the ecological toxicity tests for treated ballast water in China.

文摘We used the Integrated Biological Responses version 2(IBRv2)method to evaluate the biological eff ects of heavy metals in the sediments in Laizhou Bay,China on the benthic goby Acanthogobius ommaturus.In December 2018,gobies and sediments were collected from 15 stations.We measured the activities of defense enzymes and the contents of malondialdehyde(MDA)and metallothionein(MT)in the goby liver as well as the levels of heavy metals in the sediments and goby muscle tissue.Most of the heavy metal concentrations in sediment at each station were below the Class I criteria set by Chinese Standards for Marine Sediment Quality,and the Håkanson ecological risk index suggested low risk for the heavy metals.We found that A.ommaturus could eff ectively accumulate mercury,cadmium,arsenic,and zinc and that the contents of MT and MDA and the activities of glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase were suitable biomarkers of heavy metal pollution in this species.The IBRv2 method integrated these four biomarkers and discriminated stations according to heavy metal pollution.Higher IBRv2 values suggested more adverse eff ects in gobies,corroborating more serious heavy metal contamination.The stations with high IBRv2 values and high contents of heavy metals were mainly distributed in the west and northeast parts of the bay.These results show that the IBRv2 approach is a feasible strategy for assessing heavy metal pollution through biological response and biological status and that it can be implemented for environmental monitoring in Laizhou Bay.

文摘Based on a mobile monitoring system,101 volatile organic compounds(VOCs)in ambient air near a national control station in an industrial park were monitored during February 15-21 in 2022,and the pollution characteristics and ozone formation potential(OFP)of VOCs were analyzed.The results show that among the top 10 VOCs with higher mass concentration,there were 5 VOCs appearing in each day from February 15 to 21,including styrene,benzene,toluene,undecane and n-decane,which indicates that the sources of VOCs emission at the monitoring point were relatively stable.During the monitoring period,aromatic hydrocarbons contributed the most to the ozone formation potential of VOCs,accounting for above 70%,followed by alkanes and oxygen-containing compounds.The total OFP of aromatic hydrocarbons,alkanes and oxygen-containing compounds accounted for more than 90%,so they became the active components with the greatest influence on ozone formation.Aromatic hydrocarbons such as 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene,1,3,5-trimethylbenzene and m/p-dimethylbenzene,oxygen-containing organic compounds such as ethanol and acetone,and alkanes such as n-nonane and butane had high OFP,so they had a great effect on ozone formation.
文摘With the rapid development of the city,the concept of ecological environment has been integrated into everyone’s heart.In the new era,people also have higher requirements for the quality of living environment.However,at this stage,with the development of urbanization and industrialization,the problem of environmental pollution has become more and more serious.Therefore,we must do a good job in urban environmental monitoring,pay attention to the protection of urban environment,design and implement effective governance methods,so as to improve the quality of environmental governance.This article analyzes the problems in urban environmental monitoring,and formulates reasonable treatment methods and suggestions.
文摘The changes of 109 analytical methods for surface water in the past 20 years since the implementation of Environmental Quality Standards for Surface Water(GB 3838-2002)were analyzed.Concidering with the analysis of specific items in the quality standard,it is suggested that the monograph method and the general method(the general method is moved to the standard collection of general rules and standards)can be combined when the analytical method is newly formulated and revised in the future;the limit table of the quality standard or pollution source emission standard is moved to the collection of general rules and standards,and the referenced analysis method standards are deleted.The description of analysis method standard is more succinct,and the structure of the whole ecological environment standard system is clearer.

文摘Many animals migrate during the breeding season.It is important to study the patterns of breeding migration of wild animals,especially rare and endangered species.However,current data acquisition methods are too coarse and imprecise for investigating the circadian rhythms of migrations in amphibians.Based on the frustrated total reflection image(FTRI),we developed a new device and recorded the precise migration time of an endangered salamander,Liangshantriton taliangensis.During the breeding period,a total of 33 individuals were effectively recorded.Analysis of the data indicated that the circadian rhythm of breeding migration in L.taliangensis was bimodal,and migration mainly occurred from 05:00 to 13:00(81.82%of the total migration records).The average relative activity intensity index(RAI)of breeding migration peaked in the temperature range of 14.0–16.0°C.With increased average relative air humidity,the activity intensity first increased and then decreased,reaching a peak in the humidity range of 91.0%–97.0%.These results demonstrate that our new device is a viable and accurate method for recording the migration time of target species.It is important to reveal the breeding migration pattern of L.taliangensis,which is important for the conservation of this species.Meanwhile,this new device can be used for field monitoring and conservation studies of amphibians,reptiles and other animals.
