A Rapid Assessment of Scleractinian and Non-Scleractinian Coral Growth Forms Along the Saudi Arabian Coast, Red Sea

In this study we assessed the current status of coral reefs along the Saudi Arabian coast of the Red Sea. Among the three growth forms of Acroporid corals, the branching forms were found to dominate in the Farassan Islands(44.55%±11.10% cover) followed by tabular forms in the Doga Islands(ranging between 18%±6.47% and 18.30%±9.47% cover). Digitate forms were rarely found along the coast except at Maqna. Among the five growth forms of non-Acroporid corals, we observed maximum cover of branching forms in the Yanbu offshore area(58.89%±15.11% cover) followed by the Jeddah coast(24.76%±14.04% cover). The Millepora spp., a non-Scleractinian coral, was abundant at all the near-shore sites, such as Jeddah(10.70%±8.21%) and Al-Wajh(9.81%±6.69%). The live coral cover(including both Scleractinian and non-Scleractinian corals) of Saudi Red Sea coast was seen to be higher in the north and gradually decrease towards the south. Principal Component analysis showed that the contribution of Acroporid corals was greater in the southern region than in the northern and middle regions, but vice-versa in the case of non-Acroporid corals. Bray-Curtis cluster analysis categorized all the study sites into two major clusters with 60% similarity. Among them, one cluster-forming sites from Maqna to Masturah(Northern region) and the second one comprised the middle and southern regions(Jeddah to Farassan Islands), and one outlier Rabigh.

Characteristics of life-form and growth-form of plant species in an alpine ecosystem of North-West Himalaya

The present study was conducted in the alpine pastures of Tungnath （30° 14＇ N and 79° 13＇ E） to observe life-form and growth-form patterns of alpine plant species under grazed and ungrazed conditions and to work out the plant life form spectrum. Species were categorized as plant habit, height and length of growth-cycle and life-form classes according to Raunkiaer＇s system. The results show that in total of 68 species at grazed site, hemicryptophytes （He） accounted for 50.00% species, followed by cryptophytes （26.47%）, chamaephytes （16.18%）, phanemphytes （4.41%） and therophytes （2.94%）. At the ungrazed site in 65 plant species, hemicryptophytes （He） accounted fo＇r 49.23% species, cryptophytes （26.15%）, chamaephytes （15.38%）, phanerophytes （6.15%） and ther6phytes （3.08 % species）. In general, hemicrptophyte are dominant^in both sites i.e. graged and ungrazed. Growth form categories were classified as forbs, shrubs, grasses and sedges＇and undershrubs, according to plant habit and height. On the basis of length of the growth cycle, species were categorized as plant species of short growth cycle, intermediate growth cycle and long growth cycle. The short forbs of plant habit and height, had the highest emergence, and grasses and sedges had the lowest emergence in representative species. Percentage of species with long growth cycle was highest in both sites.

Parameters in wind-wave frequency spectra and their bearings on spectrum forms and growth

The spectrum variance m0, peak frequency ω0 and peakness factor p are expressed in terms of nondimensional fetch and duration by making use of relations which are derived through comparing and analyzing existing empirical formulas for the growth of significant wave height and period. The main features of spectrum growth as specified by these parameters agree with those of the JONS-WAP experiments. For given wind speed and fetch, the high frequency parts beyond the peaks of shallow water spectra almost coincide with that of the corresponding deep water spectrum, whereas the low frequency parts differ appreciably. The method developed in this paper predicts smaller significant wave height as well as smaller wave period for shallow water spectra in contrast to the theoretical result of Kitaigorodskii ef al, in which the peak frequency, and consequently the significant wave period, remains basically unchanged for different water depths. Spectra are further reduced to a form in which only significant wave height and period are left as parameters, the peakness factor being replaced by the wave steepness through an empirical relation between them. Spectra in this form have been verified by observations.

Isothermal grain growth of reactive spray formed 7075 alloys in semi-solid state

The grain growth behavior in reactive spray formed 7075+2.91 vol percent TiCAl alloy was studied and compared with that of spray formed 7075 Al alloy at semi-solid state. Theeffects of in-situ TiC particles on the microstructure of spray formed 7075 Al alloy were alsoinvestigated. The specimens were heat-treated isothermally at various temperatures between thesolidus and liquidus of 7075 Al alloy for times in the range of 10-60 min, then quenched in water.The microstructure of reheated specimens was characterized using scanning electron microscopy andoptical microscopy. The grain size was measured using a mean linear intercept method. Results showthat the in-situ TiC particles can effectively retard grain growth and refine the grain at a limitedsize. The grain growth exponent in Arrhenius equation increases from 2 to 3, which indicates thatthe in-situ TiC particles have the significant pinning effect on grain coarsening in the semi-solidstate.

Non-Local Analysis of Forming Limits of Ductile Material Considering Void Growth

The current study performed a finite element analysis of the strain localization behavior of a voided ductile material using a non-local plasticity formulation in which the yield strength depends on both an equivalent plastic strain measurement (hardening parameter) and Laplacian equivalent. The introduction of gradient terms to the yield function was found to play an important role in simulating the strain localization behavior of the voided ductile material. The effect of the mesh size and characteristic length on the strain localization were also investigated. An FEM simulation based on the proposed non-local plasticity revealed that the load-strain curves of the voided ductile material subjected to plane strain tension converged to one curve, regardless of the mesh size. In addition, the results using non-local plasticity also exhibited that the dependence of the deformation behavior of the material on the mesh size was much less sensitive than that with classical local plasticity and could be succe

Patterns and drivers of plant sexual systems in the dry-hot valley region of southwestern China

Sexual systems play important roles in angiosperm evolution and exhibit substantial variations among different floras. Thus, studying their evolution in a whole flora is crucial for understanding the formation and maintenance of plant biodiversity and predicting its responses to environmental change. In this study, we determined the patterns of plant sexual systems and their associations with geographic elements and various life-history traits in dry-hot valley region of southwestern China, an extremely vulnerable ecosystem. Of the 3166 angiosperm species recorded in this area, 74.5% were hermaphroditic,13.5% were monoecious and 12% were dioecious, showing a high incidence of diclinous species. Diclinous species were strongly associated with tropical elements, whereas hermaphroditic species were strongly associated with temperate and cosmopolitan elements. We also found that hermaphroditism was strongly associated with showy floral displays, specialist entomophily, dry fruits and herbaceous plants.Dioecy was strongly associated with inconspicuous, pale-colored flowers, generalist entomophily, fleshy fruits, and woody plants, whereas monoecy was strongly associated with inconspicuous, pale-colored flowers, anemophily, dry fruits, and herbaceous plants. In addition, hermaphroditic species with generalist entomophily tended to flower in the dry season, whereas diclinous species with specialist entomophily tended to flower in the rainy season. However, independent of sexual systems, plants that produce dry fruits tended to flower in the rainy season and set fruits in the dry season, but the opposite pattern was found for fleshy fruit-producing plants. Our results suggest that in the dry-hot valleys, plant sexual systems are associated with geographic elements as well as various life-history traits that are sensitive to environmental change.

[目的]通过分析西双版纳热带雨林不同生长型木本植物功能性状的差异,揭示热带雨林不同生长型木本植物功能多样性的变化规律以及影响因素。[方法]本文基于西双版纳国家级自然保护区勐仑、补蚌和尚勇等片区3块1 hm2动态监测样地的调查数据和木本植物功能性状数据,利用单因素方差分析、主成分分析、Pearson相关分析、冗余分析以及多元线性回归分析等方法,分析西双版纳热带雨林不同生长型木本植物功能多样性的差异,阐明热带雨林木本植物群落的功能特征及主要影响因子。[结果](1)乔木的叶面积、叶碳含量、叶干物质含量的群落加权平均值均显著高于灌木和藤本,而藤本叶氮含量和比叶面积的群落加权平均值显著高于乔木和灌木。(2)乔木功能丰富度和功能离散度高于灌木和藤本,而灌木功能均匀度和功能分异度均高于乔木和藤本。(3)乔木和藤本功能丰富度以及藤本功能离散度随物种丰富度、多度和系统发育多样性的增加而显著增大;乔木功能均匀度和功能分异度随土壤肥力的增大而显著增大,而灌木功能离散度随物种丰富度的增加而增大。(4)植物多度是影响乔木和灌木功能性状群落加权平均值的主要因素,而系统发育多样性、物种丰富度和土壤肥力是影响藤本功能性状群落加权平均值的主要因素。[结论]表明西双版纳热带雨林不同生长型木本植物群落在功能性状和功能多样性之间存在显著差异性,且植物多度和土壤肥力在热带雨林植物群落功能多样性维持机制中起到重要作用。

黑色岩系成壤过程中镉和硒的形态转变与迁移特征

[目的]黑色岩系含有高量的镉和硒,为明确其在风化成土过程中,岩石镉和硒的形态转变和释放对周围生态环境产生影响。[方法]在浙西北寒武统荷塘组地层的黑色岩系分布区,通过沿地形不同部位(丘陵上坡、丘陵中坡、丘陵下坡、丘间谷底和河谷阶地)采集土壤剖面分层土样,探讨黑色岩系风化成土及其风化物迁移过程中镉和硒的数量与形态转变规律。[结果]从母岩经母质到土壤,土壤总镉和总硒均呈下降趋势。黑色岩系风化物镉和硒损失随沿丘陵坡地向下迁移搬运距离增加而增加,其中,由坡积物演变为洪积物的过程中,镉和硒的损失大于由残积物演变为坡积物的损失。从风化物中流失的镉和硒以流水扩散方式对下游河流冲积物发育表土镉和硒含量产生影响,但影响程度随距离增加而减小。随着风化物搬运距离增加和土壤的演变,发生碳酸盐结合态镉和残留态镉向水溶性镉、交换性镉、有机质结合态镉、氧化物结合态镉转变,残留态硒逐渐活化转变为交换性硒、有机质结合态硒、氧化物结合态硒。土壤水溶性镉、交换性镉(硒)、有机质结合态镉(硒)呈现向地表增加的趋势;硒的有机富集及表土富集现象比镉更为明显。[结论]黑色岩系风化不仅可通过残留方式直接影响其分布区土壤镉与硒的含量,也可通过流水扩散方式影响周边地区土壤镉和硒的含量。

新型工业化与人类文明新形态

人类发展和文明形态的演变和繁荣,表现为艰难地开拓畅通之途。不同文明形态间的融合畅通意味着人类文明的更大进步。人类文明进程所面临的根本问题是,多样化的文明形态如何实现相互畅通、共存共荣?工业化的基本逻辑:机器替代人力,创新改变世界;无论“陆权”“海权”,工业能力是实权。新型工业化的经济学叙事原则就是:脱胎于传统工业化,又升华自传统工业化;扬弃传统工业化之弊端,又发扬传统工业化之张力。经济全球化多彩新格局的形成,可以获得中国创造的人类文明新形态的建构性支撑。同时,中国的新型工业化也可以获得经济全球化新格局的更大空间和多样化体系拓展。中国新型工业化是经济全球化新格局的创造性力量,不仅创造中华文明新形态,而且促进协调解决了世界不同文明形态的共存共荣问题。经济全球化需要建立和维护的是“安全畅通、规则平等、承认差异”的世界市场经济秩序。从经济学范式的底层逻辑说,必须从工具理性的一维执念变革为理性、文化、制度三维范式承诺,以体现人类文明新形态内涵的丰富性。

不同铵硝比对高山杜鹃侧枝生长和生理特性影响

为探究氮素形态对高山杜鹃侧枝生长的影响,以3年生盆栽高山杜鹃粉精灵为试验材料,单一氮源处理为对照,采用盆栽方式,研究5种不同氮素形态配比供应(铵硝比例分别为T1:100∶0,T2:75∶25,T3:50∶50,T4:25∶75和T5:0∶100)对其营养生长期侧枝生长、光合特性、代谢酶活性及营养元素积累的影响。结果表明,不同氮素形态下粉精灵不同生长期侧枝干物质积累量、苗高增量和侧枝长度均有所差异,以侧芽萌发期T3处理侧枝干物质积累量最高,T2处理在嫩侧枝期、侧枝半木质化期的苗高增量和侧枝长度均显著高于其他处理。侧枝半木质化期,与T1处理相比,T2处理显著提高净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、水分利用率及磷含量,降低胞间二氧化碳浓度;叶片Fe元素吸收量以T1处理最高,Mg元素吸收量以T5处理最高。此外,在不同生长期,硝酸还原酶活性均随硝态氮含量的增加而增加,以嫩侧枝期酶活性最高。综上,不同氮素形态对高山杜鹃粉精灵侧枝生长和生理特性的影响有所差异,且混合氮源处理较单一氮源处理更有利于促进侧枝生长,以铵硝比例75∶25促进侧枝生长及提高养分积累和光合效能效果最好。本研究为筛选适合高山杜鹃生长发育的氮素施用方法提供了理论依据。

Short wind pulses consistently change the morphology of roots,but not of shoots,across young plants of different growth forms

Wind is an environmental stimulus that stresses plants of all growth forms at all life-stages by influencing the development,architecture,and morphology of roots and shoots.However,comparative studies are scarce and no study directly investigated whether shoot and root morphological traits of trees,grasses and forbs differ in their response to short wind pulses of different wind intensity.In this study,we found that across species,wind stress by short wind pulses of increasing intensity consistently changed root morphology,but did not affect shoot morphological traits,except plant height in four species.Wind effects in roots were generally weak in tree species but consistent across growth forms.Furthermore,plant height of species was correlated with changes in specific root length and average diameter.Our results indicate that short-pulse wind treatments affect root morphology more than shoot morphology across growth forms.They further suggest that wind stress possibly promotes root anchorage in young plants and that these effects might depend on plant height.

铅污染矿区中耐铅解磷菌对玉米的促生及根际铅的固化效应

矿产资源的开采、冶炼活动造成了一定的生态环境问题,土壤中可溶性重金属随着地表径流和地下渗透造成矿区和周边农田重金属污染。而矿区中土壤微生物对重金属具有一定耐性,研究微生物对植物根际微生态环境的改善作用具有重要意义。在矿区废弃地土壤中筛选耐铅(Pb)解磷菌的基础上,将含有菌株分泌物的上清液、菌液、发酵液(上清液+菌株)分别施用到玉米(Zea mays L.)根际土壤中,对比三者对玉米的促生效果及根际土壤铅的形态变化,探究解磷菌对玉米的促生机制及其对土壤铅的固化作用。所筛菌株被鉴定为巴氏克雷伯菌(Klebsiella pasteurii),其通过分泌乙酸、乳酸、酒石酸和草酸对Ca3(PO4)2的溶磷率为26.5%,并能分泌生长素(IAA)。在玉米根际土壤中施用菌株的上清液、菌液和发酵液后,较对照组玉米株高、茎直径、地上与地下生物量均显著增加,其中施用发酵液组增幅最高,较对照组分别增加了128%,216%、266%、147%。同时,3个处理组中玉米地上生物量中铅含量分别降低68.6%、58.1%、70.1%,地下部铅含量分别降低119%、36.7%、39.5%。施用菌株上清液、菌液和发酵液后均使玉米根际土壤中可溶态的铅向稳定态铅转化,这可能是巴氏克雷伯菌在解离土壤磷素的过程中,其解离的磷可能与铅形成稳定态的磷铅化合物,进而降低植物对铅的吸收。由此可以得出,在铅污染土壤中巴氏克雷伯菌能够显著固化重金属铅并抑制玉米对铅的吸收,对玉米具有促生作用,因此,巴氏克雷伯菌在土壤重金属修复和保障农作物食品安全方面具有重要价值。

The coarsening mechanism and the effect of porosity on microstructure were also studied.

克氏原螯虾对3种不同生长型沉水植物清水态系统的影响

鉴于克氏原螯虾(Procambarus clarkii)是目前全球入侵最广、对淡水生态系统最具破坏性的物种之一,探究其对沉水植物清水态系统的影响,有助于防范克氏原螯虾入侵给浅水湖泊带来的生态风险。通过受控实验,研究了克氏原螯虾对直立型沉水植物轮叶黑藻(Hydrilla verticillata)、冠层型沉水植物穗花狐尾藻(Myriophyllum spicatum)和莲座型沉水植物密刺苦草(Vallisneria denseserrulata)的影响以及不同植物培养系统对理化因子的响应变化。结果显示,直立型轮叶黑藻相对生物减少量(60.5%)大于冠层型穗花狐尾藻(45.7%)和莲座型密刺苦草(39.0%);克氏原螯虾进入后导致3种生长型沉水植物清水态系统的总悬浮物浓度、叶绿素a和营养盐均极显著增高(P<0.01)。研究表明,水生态系统中的克氏原螯虾会直接降低沉水植物生物量,并扰动底泥增加水体的悬浮物、叶绿素a和营养盐浓度,导致水体由清水态向浊水态转变,也会通过直接牧食或扰动破坏,降低沉水植物生物量,最终影响草型清水态系统的稳定性。
