Esophageal cancer exhibits one of the highest incidence and mortality rates in China. Malignant tumors caused by esophageal cancer, and the relationship to environmental factors has been the focus of many public health studies. This study applied spatial analysis to ascertain the relationship between water pollution and esophageal cancer mortality rates nationwide. We employed two datasets, including a national investigation of esophageal cancer rates and distribution, and national water quality grades in China's primary rivers and lakes. Esophageal cancer data were grouped based on different water quality grades, which included a scaled buffer distance from rivers and lakes. Non-parametric correlation analyses were performed to examine the presence or absence of the following correlations: (i) esophageal cancer mortality and buffer distance from rivers and lakes; and (ii) esophageal cancer mortality and water quality grade values. The present study revealed a significant positive correlation between widespread water pollution and esophageal cancer mortality nationwide; and a significant negative correlation between esophageal cancer mortality, and buffer distance from rivers and lakes.  相似文献   

地方文化环境与大学教学科研融合发展的模式初探——基于英美若干研究型大学的经验研究     

孔翔  于良全 《世界地理研究》2014,(1):167-175

教学科研的深度融合是研究型大学的共同特点,但各个大学实现融合的模式仍存在差异。本文拟基于地方文化传统和周边产业发展需求,探索地方对大学主导功能的影响,并结合对英美典型研究性大学的案例剖析,研究不同大学教学科研融合发展的主要立足点不同的内在原因。研究显示,地方不仅为大学的发展提供资金和基础设施等方面的支持,也需要大学提供人力资本、知识创新等方面的服务,因此,大学的主导功能与地方文化经济环境密切相关,而教学科研的融合则往往立足于大学的主要功能。例如,牛津大学以人才培养为重点就深受英国传统文化的影响,哈佛在基础研究方面的卓越贡献也与其追求真理的文化传统有关,而斯坦福大学以服务产业发展促进人才培养与科研紧密融合的模式也受到实用教育理念的影响。总的看来,研究型大学都应该力促教学科研的深度融合,这是其承载文化传播和知识创造功能的基础,但就具体大学而言,很有必要适应特定地方的文化环境,探索适合的教学科研融合发展模式,而不要陷入盲目模仿的误区。  相似文献   

Utilization of a multicriteria least cost path model in an aquatic environment     

Marc H. Hanke  J. David Lambert  Kelly J. Smith 《International journal of geographical information science》2014,28(8):1642-1657

A critical component of maintaining biodiversity in fragmented habitats is maintaining connectivity among the usable fragments. Least cost path (LCP) analysis is a tool that can be used for predicting the ability of an organism to move from one habitat patch to another, based on geographical features of the landscape and life history traits of the organism. While this analysis has been utilized for terrestrial habitats, it is rarely applied to aquatic environments. Aquatic hypoxic conditions occur when dissolved oxygen falls below 2 mg/L. These conditions can create barriers in the water column that can either force fish to leave a habitat, or avoid that habitat altogether. Using the lower St. Johns River (LSJR) estuary in Florida, USA, as a study system, the ability of an adult silver perch, Bairdiella chrysoura, to escape a large-scale hypoxic event was modeled using a multicriteria LCP approach. Criteria-specific cost grids were constructed based upon current speed, risk of predation, and whether oxygen levels in the habitat area were normoxic (>5.5 mg/L), or hypoxic (<2.0–1.5 mg/L) as a function of water depth for the LSJR. The criteria cost grids were combined using relative weighting to produce the multicriteria cost grid used to implement the LCP analysis. Three origin and destination point locations within the LSJR study area were selected for modeling whether or not a silver perch would be able to escape a hypoxic zone. Since the LCP model will always determine a LCP from the specified origin point location, ecologically relevant swimming capacities for silver perch under normoxic and hypoxic conditions were then applied to assess the model, and to determine whether the fish would be able to reach areas unimpacted by hypoxia. The LCP model and the swimming capacity results for this study predict that under normoxic conditions, fish movement was unimpeded. During the rapidly developing hypoxic event that was modeled, the results from the LCP model indicate that the fish could move outside the hypoxic zone, but when swimming capacities were applied to the model, the silver perch could not escape. Ecologically, the results of this study suggest that silver perch would experience high mortality under a rapidly developing hypoxic event. Additionally, the results of this study indicate that a LCP model can be applied to an aquatic habitat, as long as the cost grids incorporate relevant abiotic and biotic factors.  相似文献

澳大利亚依亚瓦拉澙湖的沉积和整治     

庄振业  龙海燕 《海洋地质前沿》2014,30(5):41-46

依亚瓦拉半封闭澙湖是澳大利亚西南侧最著名的海岸澙湖,是全新世海侵以来残留的濒危脆弱地貌。湖面约35km2,流域面积达270km2,长期沉积速率不足1mm/a,短期沉积速率约5~6mm/a。近几十年来,由于受陆源泥沙淤积和工矿重金属污染,澙湖正处于快速退化阶段。当局采取以疏为主的多项整治措施,隔绝陆沙入湖、浚深湖底、加固湖岸、杜绝圈湖养殖、扩宽潮道,缩短了海、湖水交换的时间,目前已变成湖水清澈、鱼虾洄游的旅游圣地。该整治经验可为我国海岸澙湖研究提供借鉴。  相似文献

动态环境下矢量化路径规划算法     

徐啟蕾  唐功友  盖绍婷  杨雪 《中国海洋大学学报(自然科学版)》2014,44(5):109-113

对全方位机器人在完全未知动态环境下实时路径规划和针对移动障碍物的避障问题进行研究。提出矢量化路径描述方法,并将其与Bug算法思想相结合来解决机器人的路径规划问题。机器人的初始路径由其初始位置和目标位置生成,其运动过程是:首先沿初始路径行进,以规定间隔扫描当前环境,判断是否有障碍物阻挡当前路径,并检测障碍物的位置、移动方向和速度等信息;然后根据障碍物信息和机器人安全距离计算路径中间点,并插入中间点更新路径以实现避障。本文的机器人路径规划结果是以矢量形式进行描述及保存的,降低了对路径存储空间的需求,且按规划结果行进时只需要考虑直线移动距离和转动方向,简化了全方位机器人的控制。仿真结果说明本文方法的可行性及有效性。  相似文献   

南黄海北部B03孔沉积物的重矿物特征及物源指示意义     

赵利  赵广涛  何雨旸  徐翠玲  祁奇  龙晓军 《中国海洋大学学报(自然科学版)》2014,44(9):72-81

本文对取自南黄海北部的B03孔岩芯(330cm)沉积物进行了粒度和重矿物特征分析,并运用电子探针技术,分析了其典型层位角闪石的矿物化学特征。研究表明,B03孔柱状样为均一连续的粉砂质沉积,重矿物含量较低(平均仅0.65%),主要为云母类和闪石类矿物,岩芯以85cm处为界分为上、下2个沉积层,其重矿物组合分别为普通角闪石-云母类矿物-绿帘石和云母类矿物-普通角闪石-绿帘石。角闪石的EPMA分析显示其种属主要为镁角闪石,其次为镁钙闪石、铁镁钙闪石及阳起石,成因以中酸性侵入岩与中高级变质岩为主,上下沉积层角闪石特征元素Mg/Fe2+比值分别为2.03、1.90。综合分析认为,岩芯的主要物源为黄河源物质及山东半岛陆架基岩剥蚀产物的混源,上下沉积层的矿物特征差异暗示了沉积物源发生了变化,其分界线可能代表了黄河1855年改道事件在山东半岛东部陆架的区域响应。  相似文献   

Marine bacterium strain screening and pyrethroid insecticide-degrading efficiency analysis     

孙爱丽  刘菁华  史西志  李德祥  陈炯  唐道军 《中国海洋湖沼学报》2014,32(5):1029-1035

A pyrethroid insecticide-degrading bacterium, strain HS-24, was isolated from an offshore seawater environment. The strain, which can degrade cypermethrin(CYP) and deltamethrin(DEL), was identified as Methylophaga sp. The optimal culture and degradation conditions for CYP and DEL by strain HS-24 is pH 7 at 28°C. Under optimum culture conditions, strain HS-24 exhibited a broad degradation concentration range of 100, 200, 400, 600, and 800 mg/L for CYP and DEL. The metabolic intermediates were analyzed by NMR, which provided strong evidence that CYP and DEL removal occurred mainly because of a biological process. The toxicity of the degradation products of strain HS-24 was studied simultaneously by measuring the light output of the luminescence bacterium. This demonstrated that the biodegradation ability of strain HS-24 significantly decreased the toxicity of CYP- and DEL-contaminated aquaculture seawater. Finally, the findings of this paper indicate that strain HS-24 is thus revealed as a biological agent for the remediation of marine aquatic environments.  相似文献   

基于模型流的资源环境模型复合语言与应用     

王晨亮  岳天祥  范泽孟 《地球信息科学学报》2014,(1):31-38

资源环境领域的研究对象常被抽象为若干子模型复合而成的复杂模型,如何有效地集成这些子模型成为资源环境模型集成的主要内容。随着各种地学相关问题的日益复杂和多样化,传统的建模语言与友好易用的图形建模等集成建模方式已无法满足大规模高复杂的模型构建需求。本文在已有的相关理论基础上,针对复合模型构建的灵活性和复杂性之间的矛盾,将模型复合模式的本质抽象化,提出资源环境"模型流"的形式化语言描述,实现了模型流建模环境。应用实例表明,基于模型流的模型构建方式采用简洁的符号表示,避免了繁琐的图形构建环节,可快速灵活地构建高复杂度模型。模型流的提出为模型复合的调度性能优化和智能自动化集成等进一步的研究奠定了基础。  相似文献
