Effects on the hepatic cytochrome P450 1A1 system were investigated in juvenile rainbow trout i.p. injected with three different aromatic containing fractions: kerosene, light gas oil or heavy gas oil, originated from distilled North Sea crude oil. Kerosene treatment resulted in no effect on the P450 1A1 system, light gas oil injection caused a weak induction of EROD activities and heavy gas oil treatment resulted in a prominent induction of EROD activities as well as accumulation of CYP1A1 mRNA and P450 1A1 protein levels. The effects of heavy gas oil were compared with effects of β-napthoflavone (β-NF) on the P450 1A1 system. It was obvious that important discrepancies seemed to exist between EROD activities and corresponding CYP1A1 mRNA and P450 1A1 levels in rainbow trout treated with either heavy gas oil or β-NF i.e. heavy gas oil treatment resulted in higher specific EROD activities (EROD/P450 1A1) compared to β-NF. GC-MS analyses revealed that liver and bile from heavy gas oil treated rainbow trout in addition to naphthalene also contained polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as phenanthrenes, anthracene, pyrenes, fluoranthene benz(a)anthracene and chrysene, while none of these compounds were detected in control trout.  相似文献   

Sea ice and wind: Effects on primary productivity in the Barents Sea     

Egil Sakshaug  Dag Slagstad 《大气与海洋》2013,51(4):579-591

Abstract

The Barents Sea is divided into a northern and a southern part by the Polar Front (at about 75–76° N) where Atlantic waters descend under Arctic waters. Near to and north of the Polar Front, the spring bloom of phytoplankton is triggered by the stability induced in the upper 20 m by the melting of ice. The pycnocline is too strong to be eroded by wind. Primary productivity after the bloom is therefore small and largely regenerative. Underneath the pycnocline there is a 3–5 m thick layer characterized by dense, slow‐growing algal populations. New productivity north of the Polar Front is no more than 40 g C m^?2 a^?1.

In permanently open waters south of the Polar Front, the spring bloom starts in early May. Rhythmic wind‐induced mixing related to the atmospheric low‐pressure belt reaches an average 40–60 m depth in the growth season, and secondary phytoplankton maxima may arise. As a result, new annual productivity is more than doubled, i.e. 90 g C m^?2 a^?1, relative to the same system without wind. Although productivity is highest south of the Polar Front, it is more concentrated north of it, in the sense that high new production is mainly related to a 20–50 km wide belt that sweeps the area following the ice edge northwards while the ice melts through the summer.  相似文献   

Transportation planning as an effective tool for sustainable mobility     

Dag Bjrnland 《Marine pollution bulletin》1994,29(6-12):393-397

This paper focuses on goods transportation, but the general reasoning is also relevant for passenger transport. Many factors influence transport development and transport mode distribution. These factors are grouped and listed for clarity and to produce an overview. The interactions between the factor groups and transport and the complexity of the interdependence are discussed. At present, there are no formal models that fully explain goods transport development and transport pattern and that satisfactorily link policy changes and their effects on transport. Results pertaining to goods transport from two Scandinavian long-term planning models are summarized. Additional information is drawn from project work dealing with Western European countries.  相似文献   

Petrology of the Hopen mangerite-charnockite intrusion, Lofoten, north Norway   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Dag Eigil Ormaasen 《Lithos》1977,10(4):291-310

The Hopen massif, intrusive age 1900 m.y., exposed area 15 km², in the Lofoten-Vesterålen granulite facies province has the mineral assemblages: (1) mesoperthite+plagioclase (An_7–20)+quartz+clinopyroxene (Di_20–25)+orthopyroxene En_15–25+opaques±minor amphibole±minor biotite; (2) mesoperthite+plagioclase (An <2)+quartz+clinopyroxene (Di <10)+olivine Fe lt;5)+opaques. By using mineral and whole rock analyses, the crystallization conditions were estimated to be 1000°C, 12 kb load pressure and an oxygen fugacity approximately corresponding to the WM buffer. Rocks with the assemblage of type (2) contain secondary orthoferrosilite (Fe_0.90–0.95Mn_0.04–0.07Mg_0.01Ca_0.01)₂Si₂O₆, generated by reactions involving fayalite, magnetite and quartz at 800°C, 10kb load pressure and at oxygen fugacities approaching QFM buffer conditions. Subsequent to a crustal thickening, the mangeritic rocks in Lofoten-Vesterålen were emplaced in a tensional environment comparable with modern continental rifts. A ‘gabbro pillow’ magma chamber at the crustal base is proposed as parental magma for the mangeritic rocks, of which the Hopen massif represents a late differentiation.  相似文献   

Chemical stratification and stability of meromictic lakes in the Upper Romerike district     

Dag Hongve 《Aquatic Sciences - Research Across Boundaries》1980,42(2):171-195

A number of lakes in Southeast Norway have developed biogenic meromixis and have typically also considerable concentrations of dissolved iron and manganese in the bottom waters. Eight such lakes are described. Products of biological decomposition like carbon dioxide, methane and some inorganic salts gave a difference in density between mixo- and monimolimnion and hence chemical stability to the lakes. The concentration of iron and manganese gave minor contributions to the density gradients, and these substances are regarded as less important for the stability because of their reduced solubility under oxic conditions. Quantitative expressions of wind influence on lake surfaces were obtained by calculation of the work of the wind during the heating season. These values were low compared with a more exposed lake in the same region. Water movements generated by the wind have eroding effects on the chemical stratification only during short periods of homothermy before icelaying. During the rest of the year the monimolimnion is protected by either thermal stratification or ice cover. During the autumnal partial circulation a substantial reduction in chemical stability took place. For some of the lakes it is assumed that full circulation may take place in years with favourable weather conditions.  相似文献   

Improved seismic discrimination using pattern recognition     

Dag Tjøstheim 《Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors》1978,16(2):85-108

The problem of discriminating between earthquakes and underground nuclear explosions is formulated as a problem in pattern recognition. As such it may be separated into two stages, feature extraction and classification. The short-period (SP) features consist of m_b and autoregressive parameters characterising the preceding noise, signal and coda. The long-period (LP) features consist of LP power spectral estimates taken within various group velocity windows. Contrary to common usage we have extracted features from horizontal Rayleigh waves and Love waves as well as vertical Rayleigh waves. The classification is performed by approximating the statistical distribution of earthquake and explosion feature vectors by multivariate normal distributions.The method has been tested on a data base containing 52 explosions and 73 earthquakes from Eurasia recorded at NORSAR between 1971 and 1975. Several of these events are difficult on the m_b : M_s diagram [m_b(PDE) and M_s (NORSAR) have been used]. The data set was divided into a learning and an independent data set. All of the events both from the learning data set and the independent data set were correctly classified using the new procedures. Furthermore, the increase in separation as compared to the m_b : M_s discriminant is significant.  相似文献   

The Aitik Cu–Au–Ag deposit in northern Sweden: a product of high salinity fluids     

Christina Wanhainen  Curt Broman  Olof Martinsson 《Mineralium Deposita》2003,38(6):715-726

The Aitik Cu–Au–Ag deposit is located in northern Sweden and is hosted by strongly deformed 1.9 Ga Svecofennian volcano-sedimentary rocks. The main copper mineralization, which occurs as disseminations and veinlets, is hosted by garnet–biotite schist. Subeconomic mineralization in the footwall to the ore is hosted by feldspar–biotite–amphibole gneiss and porphyritic quartz monzodiorite. The deposit has been affected by post-mineralization metamorphic and igneous activity. Fluid inclusions in six samples of copper-mineralized quartz veins record the presence of three different fluid populations. The main ore was deposited from an aqueous, highly saline (31–37 eq. wt% NaCl + CaCl₂) fluid. This fluid was trapped in inclusions intimately associated with the main chalcopyrite mineralization. Later bornite deposition took place from a less saline (18–27 eq. wt% NaCl + CaCl₂), aqueous fluid. A third fluid composed of almost pure CO₂, interacted with the copper-rich system during a post-ore event. The Aitik Cu–Au–Ag deposit shares some features with both porphyry-type and Fe-oxide–Cu–Au deposits. A high calcium content of the ore fluids, similar to other Cu–Au deposits in northern Scandinavia, suggests a contribution to the salinity of the mainly magmatic-hydrothermal fluids from evaporitic rocks in stratigraphically lower units.  相似文献   

First reports of a mass mortality event across multiple life stages in a mesopelagic jellyfish in high latitude coastal waters          下载免费PDF全文

Andrea Bozman  Dag L. Aksnes  Ketil Eiane 《Marine Ecology》2018,39(2)

Mass mortality events can occur naturally and may have important ecological impacts on local populations. The abundance and stage structure of the coronate scyphozoan Periphylla periphylla in a Northern Norwegian fjord were studied between October 2010 and August 2011. Developmental stage composition varied for the duration of the study, with early developmental stages only present in the autumn and winter. Records of large number of dead P. periphylla across multiple life stages revealed that a mass mortality event occurred towards the end of the study period. The abundance of live medusa increased from 27 to 39 individuals (ind.)·1,000 m^–3 from October 2010 to February 2011, then fell to <10 ind.·1,000 m^–3 in August 2011. The estimated abundance of dead jellyfish increased from slightly >1 ind.·1,000 m^–3 in October 2010 to >34 ind.·1,000 m^–3 in August 2011, corresponding to an estimated population mortality of >80% on the last sampling date. Mortality increased as the length of high solar irradiance periods increased. Based on previous published evidence that strong light is harmful to P. periphylla, we speculate whether the light climate of this high latitude location may have contributed to the mass mortality of P. periphylla.  相似文献   

The IVQ regime in Norway: A stable alternative to an ITQ regime?     

Dag Standal  Bernt Aarset   《Marine Policy》2008,32(4):663-668

Since the introduction of quotas and licences as important management tools, Norway has insisted on an individual vessel quota regime (IVQ). The main argument has been to avoid market-based transactions of quotas and vessels and secure stability in regard to a diverse fleet structure and decentralized ownership of scarce cod resources. Thus, an individual transferable quota system (ITQ) with a high degree of transactions and the potential for a heavy concentration of quota ownership and fewer vessels has never been an alternative. However, since the late 80s, the trawler fleet has been trapped within a web of unprofitable overcapacity. Within the frame of a closed management regime and a path-dependent IVQ system, the quota regime has been forced towards a market-orientated system for transactions. In this article, we analyze the Norwegian IVQ system and discuss whether the aggregate effects of the IVQ regime are congruent with the models’ profound ideals.  相似文献   

Generation of Martian chaos and channels by debris flows     

Dag Nummedal  David B. Prior 《Icarus》1981,45(1):77-86

A debris flow mechanism is proposed to account for the formation of chaos and the large channels debouching into Chryse Planitia from the adjacent southern uplands of Mars. The debris is thought to have originated through a mechanism of collapse in the chaotic terrains which exist at the head of these channels as well as locally along the channels. This proposition is based on the detailed morphologic similarities between Martian channel source areas and the heads of both subaerial and subaqueous terrestrial debris flows. The downslope movement of the debris produced the channels through (a) modification of earlier collapse areas, (b) active bed erosion, and (c) loading-induced collapse. The large-scale channel geometry and the assemblage of related morphologic features on Mars correspond tto that observed in subaqueous debris flow chutes on the Mississippi delta front. Through various mechanisms of strain-dependent viscosity decrease the debris flow gained mobility downstream, turned into a debris avalanche, and moved onto Chryse Planitia at very high velocities. This high-velocity avalanche eroded a series of streamlined remnants near the channel mouths and deposited its load as a thin blanket over a large area of the basin creating virtually no depositional relief.  相似文献
