The objective of this study is the assessment of the typology and the trophic relevant water quality parameters in two Mediterranean lakes (Lake Ziros and Lake Kastoria) under the view of the WFD. Lake types were identified based on characteristics specified in Annex II of the WFD, while trophic indexes (OECD, TSI Carlson) were used in order to assess their trophic status. A modified TSI index appropriate for warmer lakes was also applied. According to our results, Lake Kastoria is classified as eutrophic lake with a tendency to hypertrophication while Lake Ziros is a mesotrophic ecosystem with clear signals of eutrophication. Both ecosystems are considered “at risk” of not fulfilling the WFD environmental objectives due to the existence of certain anthropogenic pressures. 相似文献

A total of 20 soil samples were collected from 10 boreholes constructed in the low lying area, which included ancillary samples
taken from the high elevation area. Redox processes were investigated in the soil as well as groundwater in the shallow groundwater
aquifer of Manukan Island, Sabah, Malaysia. Groundwater samples (n = 10) from each boreholes were also collected in the low lying area to understand the concentrations and behaviors of Fe
and Mn in the dissolved state. This study strives to obtain a general understanding of the stability behaviors on Fe and Mn
at the upper unsaturated and the lower-saturated soil horizons in the low lying area of Manukan Island as these elements usually
play a major role in the redox chemistry of the shallow groundwater. Thermodynamic calculations using PHREEQC showed that
the groundwater samples in the study area are oversaturated with respect to goethite, hematite, Fe(OH)3 and undersaturated with respect to manganite and pyrochroite. Low concentrations of Fe and Mn in the groundwater might be
probably due to the lack of minerals of iron and manganese oxides, which exist in the sandy aquifer. In fact, high organic
matters that present in the unsaturated horizon are believed to be responsible for the high Mn content in the soil. It was
observed that the soil samples collected from high elevation area (BK) comprises considerable amount of Fe in both unsaturated (6675.87 mg/kg) and saturated horizons (31440.49 mg/kg) compared
to the low Fe content in the low lying area. Based on the stability diagram, the groundwater composition lies within the stability
field for Mn2+ and Fe2+ under suboxic condition and very close to the FeS/Fe2+ stability boundary. This study also shows that both pH and Eh values comprise a strong negative value thus suggesting that
the redox potential is inversely dependent on the changes of pH. 相似文献

The present study investigates the surface water quality of three important tributaries of Jakara Basin, northwestern Nigeria to provide an overview of the relationship and sources of physicochemical and biological parameters. A total of 405 water samples were collected from 27 sampling points and analyzed for 13 parameters: dissolved oxygen (DO), 5-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), chemical oxygen demand (COD), suspended solids (SS), pH, ammonia-nitrogen (NH3NL), dissolved solids (DS), total solids (TS), nitrates (NO3), chloride (Cl), phosphates (PO4), Escherichia coli (E. coli) and fecal coliform bacteria (FCB). Pearson’s product–moment correlation matrix and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to distinguish the main pollution sources in the basin. Four varimax components were extracted from PCA, which explained 84.86, 83.60, and 78.69 % of the variation in the surface water quality for Jakara, Tsakama, and Gama-Kwari Rivers, respectively. Strong positive loading included BOD5, COD, NH3NL, E. coli, and FCB with negative loading on DO attribute to a domestic waste water pollution source. One-way ANOVA revealed that there was no significant difference in the mean of the three water bodies (p?>?0.05). It is therefore recommended that the government should be more effective in controlling the point source of pollution in the area. 相似文献

We present an empirical model for single pulses of radio emission from pulsars based on Gaussian probability distributions for relevant variables. The radiation at a specific pulse phase is represented as the superposition of radiation in two (approximately) orthogonally polarized modes (OPMs) from one or more subsources in the emission region of the pulsar. For each subsource, the polarization states are drawn randomly from statistical distributions, with the mean and the variance on the Poincaré sphere as free parameters. The intensity of one OPM is chosen from a lognormal distribution, and the intensity of the other OPM is assumed to be partially correlated, with the degree of correlation also chosen from a Gaussian distribution. The model is used to construct simulated data described in the same format as real data: distributions of the polarization of pulses on the Poincaré sphere and histograms of the intensity and other parameters. We concentrate on the interpretation of data for specific phases of PSR B0329+54 for which the OPMs are not orthogonal, with one well defined and the other spread out around an annulus on the Poincaré sphere at some phases. The results support the assumption that the radiation emerges in two OPMs with closely correlated intensities, and that in a statistical fraction of pulses one OPM is invisible. 相似文献

Sommaire Une étude radiométéorologique en mer close, a été initiée par le Groupe Radiométéorologique de l'OTAN. Pour completer les resultats des mesures au dessus du Canal d'Otranto (Martina Franca-Corfou) publiées en collaboration avec le Groupe Italien du Service de l'Aeronautique Militaire, des mesures au dessus de la mer de Libye sur la partie SE de la Mediterranée, d'une liaison transhorizon de 725 km entre le Caire et la ville d'Ierapetra, ont été enterprises.Pour expliquer le mecanisme de cette propagation transhorizon, on a appliqué une méthode d'analyse, basée sur les courbes de distribution du champs reçue en fonction du pourcentage du temps, indiquée par l'un des auteurs (Anastassiadis). Les courbes de distribution Rayleigh ou SuperRayleigh, obtenues pendant la période chaude, indiquent un mécanisme de reflection diffusée, tandis que les courbes avec des pentes superieures d'une Rayleigh pure, pendant la periode froide indiquent un mécanisme de guidage. L'hypothèse ci-dessus est supportée par le fait que les variations en altitudes des surfaces isobares suivant les periodes chaudes ou froides, presentent un fort coefficient de correlation avec les intensités du champ reçu.
Summary A radiometeorological study of VHF propagation along transhorizon paths over several parts of the Mediterranean sea, was initiated by the Radiometeorological Panel of NATO's Science Committee. After a study over the Otranto channel (Martina Franca-Corfu) performed in collaboration with the Italian group, in the present paper is investigated the 725 km, mainly over the Lybean sea transhorizon path Cairo City to lerapetra, located in the South cost of Creta island. Three years fieldstrengths measurements were analysed in Ierapetra center. Following the observed results, during the warm period of the year it is a good reception, while during the cold period the reception was very poor or inexistant.In order to explain the mechanism of this transhorizon propagation, a method of analysis based on the distribution curves, as indicated by one of the authors (Anastassiadis) was used. Rayleigh or super-Rayleigh distribution curves of the received signalstrength versus time percentage observed during the warm period indicate a diffused reflection mechanism while Sub-Rayleigh distribution observed during the cold period indicate a ducting mechanism. These results are supported by the close correlation observed between the variation in altitudes of isobaric surfaces and the location of volume following the warm or cold period of the year in which the diffused reflection mechanism is produced.相似文献

Chinese Neogene Rhinocerotidae has quite a complete record and its temporal range is the Early Miocene to Late Pliocene. The samples include 25 species in 4 tribes of 2 subfamilies. They are used as a foundation for the study of the evolution of the family and its relation to climatic changes. Taxonomic diversity, new records and extinctions are estimated for each Chinese Neogene mammal faunal unit (NMU). The diversity of Chinese Rhinocerotidae varies noticeably throughout the Neogene and is recognized within five stages: the Middle Miocene and Late Miocene are stages of high diversity and the Early Miocene, early Late Miocene and Pliocene are stages of low diversity. Rhinocerotid diversity and morphology are closely related to environmental factors and particularly sensitive to changes in ambient temperature and humidity. The interpretation of climatic variation reflected in the evolution of Rhinocerotidae corresponds precisely with the conclusions drawn from other workers and provides new evidence fen 相似文献

The Nebraska Sand Hills are a distinctive eco-region in the semi-arid Great Plains of the western United States. The water
table underlying the Sand Hills is part of the High Plains/Ogallala aquifer, an important water resource for the central Great
Plains. Lake levels are affected directly by fluctuations in the water table, which is recharged primarily by local precipitation
and responds quickly to climatically induced changes in regional water balance. Instrumental records are available for only
50–100 years, and paleolimnological data provide important insights into the extremes and variability in moisture balance
over longer time scales. A set of 69 lakes from across Nebraska was used to establish a statistical relationship between diatom
community composition and water depth. This relationship was then used to develop a diatom-based inference model for water
depth using weighted averaging regression and calibration techniques. Development of the inference model was complicated by
strong intra-seasonal variability in water depth and the linkages between depth and other limnologic characteristics, including
alkalinity, water clarity and nutrient concentrations. Analysis of historical diatom communities from eight lakes allowed
for the reconstruction of lake-level fluctuations over the past several thousand years. Comparisons of the more recent portion
of these reconstructions with the instrumental Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) showed that sediment records may not faithfully
reflect short-term fluctuations in water level, except where sedimentation rates are very high. However, large and persistent
changes in moisture availability were discernible even in longer, low-resolution records. Thus, diatoms are a useful addition
to the tools available for understanding past drought in the central Great Plains, especially when trajectories of change
are constrained by data from multiple sites or other proxies. 相似文献
