Little research has examined whether forests reduce stream water eutrophication in agricultural areas during spring snowmelt periods. This study evaluated the role of forests in ameliorating deteriorated stream water quality in agricultural areas, including pasture, during snowmelt periods. Temporal variation in stream water quality at a mixed land‐use basin (565 ha: pasture 13%, forestry 87%), northern Japan, was monitored for 7 years. Synoptic stream water sampling was also conducted at 16 sites across a wide range of forest and agricultural areas in a basin (18.3 km2) in spring, summer and fall. Atmospheric nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) deposition were measured for 4 years. The results showed that concentration pulses of nitrate, organic N and total P in stream water were observed when discharge increased during spring snowmelt. Their concentrations were high when silicate concentrations were low, suggesting surface water exported from pasture largely contributed to stream water pollution during snowmelt. Atmospheric N and P deposition (4.1 kg N ha?1 y?1; 0.09 kg P ha?1 y?1, respectively) was too low to affect the background concentrations of N and P in streams from forested areas. Reduction of eutrophication caused by nutrients from pasture was mainly due to dilution by water containing low concentrations of N and P exported from forested areas, whereas in‐stream reduction was not a dominant process. Results indicate that forests have a limited capacity to reduce the concentration pulses of N and P in stream water during snowmelt in this study basin. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Gillichthys mirabilis population static measurements (abundance, age, and size class structures) and vital rates (growth, mortality, recruitment)
were monitored on an annual basis from 2002 to 2007. Population-level metrics were used to gauge habitat quality at two study
sites (a contaminated site and a reference site) in two large northern California estuaries (San Francisco and Tomales Bays).
San Francisco Bay populations exhibited slower growth and higher mortality rates and contained higher amounts of contaminants
than Tomales Bay. Recruitment rates were highest at contaminated sites (Stege Marsh and Walker Creek) in 3 years out of 5 years,
suggesting low adult survival. This study suggests that population-level effects on a residential fish may be attributed to
estuarine contamination on the US Pacific coast. 相似文献

Development of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system with higher efficiency, and evaluation of its operating performance, is essential to expand the growth of GSHP systems in Japan. A closed-loop GSHP system was constructed utilizing a flowing (artesian) well as a ground heat exchanger (GHE). The system was demonstrated for space-heating and space-cooling of a room (area 126.7 m2) in an office building. The average coefficient of performance was found to be 4.5 for space-heating and 8.1 for space-cooling. The maximum heat exchange rate was 70.8 W/m for space-heating and 57.6 W/m for space-cooling. From these results, it was determined that a GSHP system with a flowing well as a GHE can result in higher performance. With this kind of highly efficient system, energy saving and cost reduction can be expected. In order to assess appropriate locations for the installation of similar kinds of GSHP systems in Aizu Basin, a suitability map showing the distribution of groundwater up-flowing areas was prepared based on the results of a regional-scale three-dimensional analytical model. Groundwater up-flowing areas are considered to be suitable because the flowing well can be constructed at these areas. Performance evaluation of the GSHP system utilizing the flowing well, in conjunction with the prepared suitability map for its installation, can assist in the promotion of GSHP systems in Japan. 相似文献

Dimethylsulfide in coastal zone of the East China Sea 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Dimethylsulfide (DMS) in seawater were observed four times from February 1993 to August 1994 along a fixed section (PN line) in the East China Sea. The DMS concentrations showed remarkable temporal and spatial variations. The DMS concentrations were generally higher in the upper euphotic layer of the continental shelf zone in summer. The spatial variation, however, was more pronounced even in well mixed winter water, where the concentration of DMS varied widely from 3 to 106 ng-S/l in the continental shelf zone while the salinity was vertically almost uniform. This means that DMS in seawater is rapidly produced and decomposed with a time scale less than one month in the water column. The largest value of 376 ng-S/l was obtained at 5 m depth near the mouth of Changjiang River in August 1994. The mean concentrations in the surface 30 m layer in the continental shelf zone were 21, 54, 126 and 57 ng-S/l in February, October, June and August, respectively, which were about twice as large as those in the Kuroshio region. The mean fluxes of DMS from the East China Sea to the atmosphere are estimated to be 49 g-S/m2/day in winter and 194 g-S/m2/day in summer in the continental shelf zone, and to be 32 and 107 g-S/m2/day in the Kuroshio region. 相似文献

Abstract: Abundant benthic foraminifera have been identified in thin sections of the siliceous black ore in the Ezuri Kuroko deposit, Hokuroku, Japan. By treating samples with conventional hydrofluoric acid digestion techniques, sponge spicules and radiolaria have also been recognized in the residue. Under microscopic observations, 94 individual foraminiferal specimens have been detected. However, as it is difficult to identify species or genera by means of microscope observations alone, only a small number of genera have been identified based on morphology. The foraminiferal assemblage is composed predominantly of agglutinated species (83%) with subordinate calcareous species (17%), and is assigned to the Cyclammina Assemblage based on the preponderance of Cyclammina (57%). The foraminifera are generally well preserved within micro‐crystalline to cryptocrystalline quartz, and exhibit no obvious features related to compaction or secondary deformation. Textural observations suggest that the siliceous component of this rock was not derived from an allochthonous block but instead constitutes autochthonous proto‐Kuroko sediment. The Cyclammina Assemblage in the ore is different from recently described foraminiferal assemblages in the vicinity of present deep‐sea hydrothermal vents, but is identical to those found in black shales of the Onnagawa to Funakawa stages in the Green Tuff region. The proto‐Kuroko sediment is assumed to have been deposited in an oxygen‐deficient environment within a closed, deep‐seated basin. The existence of siliceous microfossils suggests that the silica in the siliceous ore did not originate from silica sinter deposits produced by submarine hydrothermal activities, but from a biogenic siliceous ooze, probably composed of diatoms. Sulfide mineralization in the interstices of some of the microfossils is inferred to relate primarily to bacterial sulfate reduction associated with the decomposition of organic matter. The later sulfide mineralization associated with larger crystals (which contain fluid inclusions with homogenization temperatures of approximately 250C) cuts across the siliceous masses and foraminiferal septa, and may have been formed after consolidation of the siliceous ooze, accompanying the formation of acidic intrusive rocks during the late Onnagawa stage. 相似文献
