草甸草原植物beta多样性高光谱遥感估算方法

目前,全球生物多样性的状态非常堪忧,因此,利用光谱技术估算生物多样性成为了生态学家和遥感学家共同关注的热点。目前关于植物alpha多样性的研究很多,而关于beta多样性的研究较少,仍存在一些问题值得去探索。为了探究利用遥感技术估算植物beta多样性的最佳光谱指数以及最佳影像空间分辨率,以草甸草原为研究区,基于无人机高光谱遥感影像,从光谱距离、光谱角度、生物多样性概念三个方面计算了6种beta多样性估算指数(4种为我们构建的新指数,2种为已有的指数),并采用Mantel tests和相关系数筛选最佳的光谱指数。然后将筛选出来的指数应用于不同空间分辨率的影像,以期得到最佳观测尺度。另外,为了提高指数的估算能力,对比了一阶导数变换和Savitzky-Golay滤波两种光谱变换方法,以及相关系数法、连续投影法、竞争性自适应重加权法三种特征波段选择方法。结果表明,不论是采用亚尺度观测(像元大小<样方大小)还是等尺度观测(像元大小=样方大小),最佳的光谱指数均为光谱距离指数,且光谱距离指数在不同影像空间分辨率下均表现良好。在草原地区,当影像空间分辨率约为0.25 m时,该指数可以取得最佳的估算结果。经一阶导数变换并用相关系数法提取特征波段后构建的光谱距离指数与beta多样性拥有最强的相关性,今后可利用该指数构建估算模型或者直接表征beta多样性。该研究对于科学的选取光谱指数和影像空间分辨率去估算植物beta多样性具有一定的指导意义。

采用晶种辅助蒸气转化(SASC)策略,将有序介孔分子筛Al-SBA-15颗粒直接转化为Beta纳米晶团聚体(BNA).除规则微孔外,BNA含有2种多级介孔结构.研究了骨架组装与多级孔结构的关系.通过调节热分解条件,将P123胶束选择性分解成碳颗粒并分散于Al-SBA-15介孔中,在颗粒内部构建了均匀的三维纳米空间网格.通过浸渍Beta晶种和四乙基铵阳离子(TEA+)强化分子筛成核,采用蒸气处理方法,将Al-SBA-15无定形孔壁在纳米空间中缓慢转化为Beta纳米晶体.通过调节合成参数,使纳米晶体沿Al-SBA-15孔壁方向规则排列,形成有序介观结构.此外,经高温焙烧去除碳颗粒后,BNA内部生成了穴状介孔.实验结果表明,低的溶剂用量可显著降低传质速度,提高骨架组装质量,从而使BNA酸性增强.优异的多级孔结构和较强的酸性使BNA在大分子反应中具有应用潜力.

高原鼠兔干扰对高寒草甸植物物种和功能性状beta多样性的影响

采用野外空间多点同步取样,分析了高原鼠兔干扰对高寒草甸植物物种beta多样性和植物功能性状beta多样性的影响,确定了高原鼠兔干扰下高寒草甸植物物种和功能性状beta多样性的变化途径,分别提出了高原鼠兔干扰区域内,基于植物物种多样性和功能性状多样性的高寒草甸植物多样性维持策略。结果表明,高原鼠兔干扰使高寒草甸植物物种相似性显著降低了28.1%,植物功能相似性降低了28.7%。尽管高原鼠兔干扰没有改变高寒草甸植物物种和功能性状beta多样性的变化途径,且对植物物种和功能性状的嵌套组分不存在显著影响,但高原鼠兔干扰显著降低了植物物种和功能性状周转组分所占的比例,降幅分别为36.6%和34.3%。高原鼠兔干扰区域内,高寒草甸植物物种beta多样性的变化以周转为主导(周转占比81.4%;嵌套占比:18.6%),植物功能性状beta多样性的变化以嵌套为主导(嵌套占比64.9%;周转占比35.1%)。因此,针对划定的高原鼠兔干扰区,需要同时保护区域内所有高原鼠兔栖息地(多位点保护),以达到维持植物物种多样性的目的,而可以仅通过保护该区域内植物功能性状丰富的位点,即可维持较高的植物功能多样性。

响应面模型用于Beta分子筛催化剂蜂窝状整体式成型的研究

Beta分子筛由于具有独特的三维十二元环孔道结构,可提供更多活性组分附着位点,是在实际应用中具有优异性能的工业催化剂。在工业使用中,蜂窝整体式催化剂具有通量高、流场均匀、压降小、不易堵塞的优点,是气固或者液固催化反应的最优解决方案。但由于Beta分子筛吸水率高,收缩率大,导致蜂窝成型困难,严重限制了Beta分子筛的工业应用。基于此,选择拟薄水铝石(SB粉)为黏结剂、硝酸为胶溶剂、田菁粉为助挤剂,在水粉比为0.6的条件下制备一系列蜂窝整体式成型Beta分子筛催化剂,基于响应面法,评价了各原料的配比对蜂窝整体式催化剂机械强度的影响,得到了催化剂的机械强度与3个因素(黏结剂用量、胶溶剂用量、助挤剂用量)之间关系的二阶多项式近似模型函数。将试验结果与预测值进行对比,证明了预测模型的可靠性,并利用该模型找到最优的Beta分子筛蜂窝成型条件为SB粉质量分数36.1%、硝酸质量分数8.4%、田菁粉质量分数4.7%。

基于Beta函数的温度分量模型在混凝土拱坝变形监控中的应用

混凝土拱坝由于具有特殊的超静定壳体结构,对温度尤其敏感,因此拱坝变形监控模型中的温度分量对模型综合性能有显著影响。使用常见的周期三角函数和平均温度等传统温度分量构建方法,无法很好地表示拱坝坝体内部的温度分布与外界温度的滞后效应。因此,提出了一种新的温度滞后特性模拟方法,采用Beta分布来描述滞后影响,并基于Beta函数建立了混凝土拱坝变形监控模型。将基于Beta函数的温度分量模型应用于某拱坝变形监控模型的建立,结果表明监控模型的拟合精度和预测精度均优于传统模型,并表征了前期气温对沿拱向坝体测点变形的影响权重分布,描述了气温对坝体变形的滞后效应。

Pt/Beta催化剂上Pt金属中心/酸中心浓度比对加氢异构化性能的影响

以工业Beta沸石为载体,负载不同含量的Pt,得到了不同金属中心/酸中心浓度比(c_(M)/c_(A))的催化剂,对其进行物化表征,并以正庚烷为模型化合物对不同c_(M)/c_(A)催化剂进行异构化反应性能评价。结果表明:Pt粒子均匀地负载在沸石的外表面上,对沸石结构没有影响,酸性略有下降。对于催化剂的正庚烷异构化反应活性,当催化剂c_(M)/c_(A)小于0.037时,反应过程由金属中心数量控制,产生大量多支链异构体产物和裂化产物;当c_(M)/c_(A)大于0.285时,反应过程由酸中心数量控制,有氢解反应发生。在反应压力为0.4 MPa、反应温度为207℃、质量空速为1.0 h^(-1)、氢/烃摩尔比为5、催化剂质量为1.0 g的条件下,当催化剂c_(M)/c_(A)为0.266、正庚烷转化率为70.75%时,异构体总选择性为95.14%,总收率为67.31%,其中多支链异构体收率为15.63%,裂化产物收率低于5%。

Production of linear alkylbenzene over Ce containing Beta zeolites

Ce-encapsulated Beta zeolite was synthesized by a one-pot hydrothermal method with citric acid complexing Ce in the absence of Na species.Additional citric acid can effectively prevent the deposition of Ce species during the hydrothermal synthesis of zeolites,leading to uniform distribution of Ce cluster in the framework of Beta zeolites.Moreover,the sodium-free synthesis system resulted that the Brønsted acid sites were mainly located on the straight channels and external surface of Beta zeolites,improving the utilization of Brønsted acid sites.In addition,Ce encapsulated Beta zeolites showed enhanced activity and robust stability in the alkylation of benzene with 1-dodecene based on the synergistic effect between Ce species and Brønsted acid sites,which pave the way for its practical application in the production of alkylbenzene.

Characterization of Extended Spectrum Beta-lactamase and Carbapenamase Producing Enterobacteriaceae Causing Urinary Tract Infection among Children in Kenya: A Cross-Sectional Study

Introduction: Enterobacteriaceae causing urinary tract infections (UTI) have developed resistance to the commonly used antibiotics due to emergence of Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) and Carbapenamase producing Enterobactericeae which are a public health problem worldwide. This study aims to determine the prevalence and characterize ESBLs and carbapenamase producing Enterobactericeae. Method: A cross-sectional study was carried out in Gertrude’s Children’s Hospital, Nairobi. 238 urine samples were collected from patients with urinary symptoms attending the outpatient department within the period 2020-2021. The urine were examined macroscopically and microscopically. Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing were done using VITEK® 2 Compact system (BioMérieux). Double disc synergy test and modified hodge tests were done as confirmatory tests for ESBLs and Carbapenamase phenotypes respectively. Polymerase Chain Reaction was used for the detection of blaCTX-M, blaTEM, blaSHV, blaKPC and blaOXA-48 genes. Results: From the 238 children sampled the prevalence of UTI caused by Enterobactericeae was 22.3%. The Enterobacteriaceae species isolated were Escherichia coli (84.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (5.66%), Proteus mirabillis (5.66%), Enterobacter aerogenes (1.89%) and Morganella morganii (1.89%). The isolated species were resistant to ampicillin. Meropenem had the highest susceptibility. Only E. coli species had the ESBLs (26.4%) and carbapenamase (1.9%) phenotypes. 100% had BlaCTX-M while 50% had blaTEM resistant gene. There was a significant association (p Conclusion: Ampicillin resistance resulted to use of alternative drugs and Meropenem was the drug of choice where increased resistance to the recommended drugs was noted. Further research on resistant genes is recommended.

Autoantibodies against beta cells to predict early insulin requirements in pediatric patients with clinically diagnosed type 2 diabetes

BACKGROUND Autoimmunity has emerged as a probable disease modifier in patients with clinically diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),that is,patients who have insulin resistance,obesity,and other cardiovascular risk factors,suggesting that the presence of glutamic acid decarboxylase(anti-GAD65),islet antigen 2(anti-IA2),and zinc transporter 8(anti-Zn8T)antibodies could have deleterious effects on beta cell function,causing failure and earlier requirement for insulin treatment.AIM To evaluate anti-GAD65,anti-IA2 and anti-Zn8T as predictors of early insulin requirement in adolescents with a clinical diagnosis of T2DM.METHODS This was a case–control study in patients with clinically diagnosed with T2DM(68 cases and 64 controls with and without early insulin dependence respectively),male and female,aged 12–18 years.Somatometry,blood pressure,glucose,insulin,C-peptide,glycated hemoglobin A1c,and lipid profiles were assessed.ELISA was used to measure anti-GAD65,anti-IA2,and anti-Zn8T antibodies.Descriptive statistics,Pearson'sχ2 test,Student's t test,and logistic regression was performed.P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.RESULTS There were 132 patients(53.8%female),with a mean age was 15.9±1.3 years,and there was a disease evolution time of 4.49±0.88 years.The presence of anti-GAD65,anti-IA2,and anti-Zn8T positivity was found in 29.5%,18.2%,and 15.9%,respectively.Dividing the groups by early or no insulin dependence showed that the group with insulin had a higher frequency of antibody positivity:anti-GAD65 odds ratio(OR):2.42(1.112–5.303,P=0.026);anti-IA2:OR:1.55(0.859–2.818,P=0.105);and anti-Zn8T:OR:7.32(2.039–26.279,P=0.002).CONCLUSION Anti-GAD65 positivity was high in our study.Anti-GAD65 and anti-Zn8T positivity showed a significantly depleted beta cell reserve phenotype,leading to an increased risk of early insulin dependence.

Deterministic processes drive turnover-dominated beta diversity of breeding birds along the central Himalayan elevation gradient

Beta diversity,the variation of community composition among sites,bridges alpha and gamma diversity and can reveal the mechanisms of community assembly through applying distance-decay models and/or partitioning beta diversity into turnover and nestedness components from functional and phylogenetic perspectives.Mountains as the most natural experiment system provide good opportunities for exploring beta diversity patterns and the underlying ecological processes.Here,we simultaneously consider distance-decay models and multiple di-mensions of beta diversity to examine spatial variations of bird communities,and to evaluate the relative importance of niche-based and neutral community assembly mechanisms along a 3600-m elevational gradient in the central Himalayas,China.Our results showed that species turnover dominates taxonomic,functional,and phylogenetic beta diversity.We observed strongest evidence of spatial distance decays in taxonomic similarities of birds,followed by its phylogenetic and functional analogues.Turnover component was highest in taxonomic beta diversity,while nestedness component was highest in functional beta diversity.Further,all correlations of assemblage similarity with climatic distance were higher than that with spatial distances.Standardized values of overall taxonomic,functional,and phylogenetic beta diversity and their turnover components increase with increasing elevational distance,while the standardized values of taxonomic and phylogenetic nestedness decreased with increasing elevational distance.Our results highlighted the niche-based deterministic processes in shaping elevational bird diversity patterns that were determined by the relative roles of decreasing trend of environmental filtering and increasing trend of limiting similarity along elevation distances.

Gross Alpha and Beta Activities and Related Lifetime Risks Assessment Due to Ingestion of Drinking Water from Different Sources in the District of Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire

Drinking good quality water is essential for better health. It is therefore essential to assess the radiological quality of all water consumed in the District of Abidjan in order to prevent related hazards. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the risk of cancer due to the ingestion of alpha and beta emitting radionuclides in the different types of water consumed in the region. A total of 63 water samples with 43 tap water samples, 5 bottled mineral water and 15 sachet water samples was collected and taken to GAEC laboratory for analysis. The low background Gas-less Automatic Alpha/Beta counting system (Canberra iMaticTM) was used to determine alpha and beta activity concentrations. Activity concentrations of both gross alpha and gross beta obtained in water sample were respectively lower than the WHO recommended limits of 0.1 Bq/l and 1 Bq/l. Also, the annual effective dose and total equivalent effective dose found in mineral bottled water samples were higher than in other types of water. The assessment of radiological lifetime risk has shown values of cancer risk due to ingestion alpha and beta emitters lower than recommended limit. These results indicate that there is no health hazard associated to consumption of water in the District of Abidjan.

Patterns and drivers of avian taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity in China vary across geographical backgrounds and dispersal abilities

Geographical background and dispersal ability may strongly influence assemblage dissimilarity;however,these aspects have generally been overlooked in previous large-scale beta diversity studies.Here,we examined whether the patterns and drivers of taxonomic beta diversity(TBD)and phylogenetic beta diversity(PBD)of breeding birds in China vary across(1)regions on both sides of the Hu Line,which demarcates China’s topographical,climatic,economic,and social patterns,and(2)species with different dispersal ability.TBD and PBD were calculated and partitioned into turnover and nestedness components using a moving window approach.Variables representing climate,habitat heterogeneity,and habitat quality were employed to evaluate the effects of environmental filtering.Spatial distance was considered to assess the impact of dispersal limitation.Variance partitioning analysis was applied to assess the relative roles of these variables.In general,the values of TBD and PBD were high in mountainous areas and were largely determined by environmental filtering.However,different dominant environmental filters on either side of the Hu Line led to divergent beta diversity patterns.Specifically,climate-driven species turnover and habitat heterogeneity-related species nestedness dominated the regions east and west of the line,respectively.Additionally,bird species with stronger dispersal ability were more susceptible to environmental filtering,resulting in more homogeneous assemblages.Our results indicated that regions with distinctive geographical backgrounds may present different ecological factors that lead to divergent assemblage dissimilarity patterns,and dispersal ability determines the response of assemblages to these ecological factors.Identifying a single universal explanation for the observed pattern without considering these aspects may lead to simplistic or incomplete conclusions.Consequently,a comprehensive understanding of large-scale beta diversity patterns and effective planning of conservation strategies necessitate the consideration of both geographical background and species dispersal ability.

混合Beta分布GARCH模型的EM算法求解与实证分析

GARCH模型在处理时序数据异方差问题中得到广泛应用,然而在面临一些特殊领域的数据,尤其是金融市场领域中具有高峰厚尾、非对称性、有界取值区间等特征的数据时,传统正态分布的基本假设往往与现实严重不一致。针对此类问题,文章提出混合Beta分布的GARCH模型,并给出了基于完全数据最大似然函数的EM算法估计模型的参数,以仿真模拟数据和金融市场现实数据为例,进行了实证分析。结果显示,在违背正态分布假设的情形下,混合Beta分布GARCH模型更能有效地提炼波动的一系列非正态性信息,同时也验证了EM算法对模型的参数求解行之有效。

A phylogenetic approach identifies patterns of beta diversity and floristic subregions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Patterns of taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity and their relationships with environmental correlates can help reveal the origin and evolutionary history of regional biota.The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau(QTP)harbors an exceptionally diverse flora,however,a phylogenetic perspective has rarely been used to investigate its beta diversity and floristic regions.In this study,we used a phylogenetic approach to identify patterns of beta diversity and quantitatively delimit floristic regions on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.We also examined the relationships between multifaceted beta diversity,geographical distance,and climatic difference,and evaluated the relative importance of various factors(i.e.,climate,topography and history)in shaping patterns of beta diversity.Sørensen dissimilarity indices indicated that patterns of species turnover among sites dominated the QTP.We also found that patterns of both taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity were significantly related to geographical distance and climatic difference.The environmental factors that contributed most to these patterns of beta diversity include annual precipitation,mean annual temperature,climatic gradients and climatic instability.Hierarchical dendrograms of dissimilarity and non-metric multidimensional scaling ordination based on phylogenetic beta diversity data identified ten floristic subregions in the QTP.Our results suggest that the contemporary environment and historical climate changes have filtered species composition among sites and eventually determined beta diversity patterns of plants in the QTP.

Giving Food a Fiber Boost: Adding High Beta-Glucan Ingredient from Barley to Everyday Foods

Lack of dietary fiber contributes to many health issues, particularly chronic vascular diseases. Mixed linkage β-1.3 - 1.4 beta-glucan (beta-glucan, in this paper) is a confirmed beneficial ingredient for the human diet through reduction of cholesterol and the glycemic index. Barley contains the highest beta-glucan content of all the grains, and in this study, a percentage of flour from two high beta glucan lines was, each, added to an array of wheat-based food products to measure how it impacted total dietary fiber. Results showed that beta-glucan content was higher in all the products containing the added high beta-glucan flour, along with increased total dietary fiber content. Protein content in the food products is also increased with the higher protein in the barley flours added. Beta-glucan content in the barley-added products increased to 1.2% - 4.0% versus 0.2% - 0.5% in the pure wheat products, while the dietary fibers increased to 3.5% - 24.4% versus 2.1% - 9.1% in pure wheat product controls. This research provided experimental evidence that using a high beta-glucan barley ingredient in food can increase dietary fiber to benefit health.
