The Austrian blackfly fauna were analysed with regard to spatial (ecoregions, bioregions), vertical (altitude classes) and longitudinal zonation characteristics [stream order, biocoenotic (= fish) regions] on the basis of 2600 investigation sites. Of a total of 45 species recorded, Simulium ornatum, S. variegatum, S. argyreatum and S. reptans are the most common and most frequently distributed species, occurring in 60% of the investigated sites. Although the Austrian blackfly fauna seem to be quite well documented (on average one investigation site per 32 km2) the jackknife analyses indicates that there are still some fauna deficits. Whereas the species diversity of the main ecoregions is quite similar, the number of species differs clearly between the bioregions. Within the typological context of the Water Framework Directive, the Austrian Simuliidae confirm the bioregions as the most useful spatial units for river typology. A further optimisation in predicting a target list of blackfly species of a site can be achieved by subdividing the bioregions into either catchment area and altitude classes or into longitudinal zonation types (biocoenotic regions). 相似文献

A novel method of map matching using the Global Positioning System (GPS) has been developed for civilian use, which uses digital mapping data to infer the systematic position errors of less than 100m which result largely from 'selective availability' (S/A) imposed by the US military. Selective availability was switched off on the 2nd of May 2000, and is to be replaced with 'regional denial capabilities in lieu of global degradation'. The system tracks a vehicle on all possible roads (road centre-lines) in a computed error region, then uses a method of rapidly detecting inappropriate road centre-lines from the set of all those possible. This is called the Road Reduction Filter (RRF) algorithm. Point positioning is computed using C/A code pseudorange measurements direct from a GPS receiver. The least squares estimation is performed in the software developed for the experiment described in this paper. Virtual differential GPS (VDGPS) corrections are computed and used from a vehicle's previous positions, thus providing an autonomous alternative to DGPS for in-car navigation and fleet management. Height aiding is used to augment the solution and reduce the number of satellites required for a position solution. Ordnance Survey (OS) digital map data was used for the experiment, i.e. OSCAR 1 m resolution road centre-line geometry and Land Form PANORAMA 1:50,000, 50 m-grid digital terrain model (DTM). Testing of the algorithm is reported and results are analysed. Vehicle positions provided by RRF are compared with the 'true' position determined using high precision (cm) GPS carrier phase techniques. It is shown that height aiding using a DTM and the RRF significantly improve the accuracy of position provided by inexpensive single frequency GPS receivers. 相似文献

Over the past 30 years the literature has burgeoned with in situ approaches for groundwater remediation. Of the methods currently available, the use of metallic iron (Fe0) in permeable reactive barrier (PRB) systems is one of the most commonly applied. Despite such interest, an increasing amount of experimental and field observations have reported inconsistent Fe0 barrier operation compared to contemporary theory. In the current work, a critical review of the physical chemistry of aqueous Fe0 corrosion in porous media is presented. Subsequent implications for the design of Fe0 filtration systems are modeled. The results suggest that: (i) for the pH range of natural waters (>4.5), the high volumetric expansion of Fe0 during oxidation and precipitation dictates that Fe0 should be mixed with a non‐expansive material; (ii) naturally occurring solute precipitates have a negligible impact on permeability loss compared to Fe0 expansive corrosion; and (iii) the proliferation of H2 metabolizing bacteria may contribute to alleviate permeability loss. As a consequence, it is suggested that more emphasis must be placed on future work with regard to considering the Fe0 PRB system as a physical (size‐exclusion) water filter device. 相似文献

Most reinforced concrete structures are damaged due to corrosion of reinforcements in concrete. In normal conditions the pH near the reinforcements is around 12–13 which means that steel is in a passive state. But aggressive species, such as chloride ions or carbon dioxide, may penetrate into concrete and promote active corrosion. As a consequence (hydro)oxides are produced leading to degradation of concrete structures. For instance cracking of the concrete is generated due to the pressure induced by rust. In this paper, we study the inception and the propagation of cracking on reinforced mortar plates with rebars located either in the middle or at the corner. Additional experiments have been performed on cylindrical specimens to determine the local effect of rust pressure at the interface rust/mortar. The specimens have been subjected to imposed current density in order to enhance the corrosion and digital image intercorrelation has been used to determine displacement fields. The experiments have been compared to numerical modelling. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

A strong He-U anomaly, discovered in the Thelon basin of the N.W.T. during a regional U exploration program in 1981, was studied in detail in 1982. The anomaly is confined to a 3-km2 lake situated 160 km northwest of Baker Lake. Lake bottom water and sediment samples taken in June through the ice on a 50 m × 50 m grid, were analyzed for a number of trace and minor elements.In the lake sediments He and U were highly anomalous and parallel the strong anomaly patterns of He observed in the water. Median and maximum values in the sediments were 57 ppm and 396 ppm U, and 296 nL/L and 13870 nL/L He. Regional medians were 4.3 ppm U and 50 nL/L He. Se and V in sediments gave weak but similar anomaly patterns to those observed for U and He.The anomaly is somewhat of an enigma. The unusually high U content indicates an oxidizing, hence, near surface, water regime, and the highly anomalous He flux into the lake and a thick cover of permafrost in the region indicate a very deep source where conditions are normally reducing, rendering U immobile.Coincident anomaly patterns and increasing concentrations with depth of minor and trace elements and gases in the lake water prove that groundwater is the source of the anomalies. Contoured element maps indicate that this groundwater enters the lake in at least four places.The fact that up to 35 ppb U, 6 ppm dissolved O2 and virtually no Fe and Mn, were detected in lake waters above groundwater entry points indicates that the groundwaters were oxidizing with respect to these elements. This is indeed surprising because permafrost is believed to be about 300 m thick in the region; at such depths groundwaters are usually rich in Fe and void of U.The highly anomalous He in this lake indicates deep fractures which serve as conduits for mineralized water entering the lake from depth and creating a frost-free window in the permafrost. The fractures probably penetrate well into the basement for only major deep fractures are known to produce such strong He anomalies. The additional presence of anomalous U suggests U mineralization at depth. 相似文献

The use of microbial consortia to remove contaminants in industrial systems and in natural environments could be an alternative to the use of unique strains of microorganisms, since microbial consortia have greater robustness to environmental fluctuations. However, it is necessary to evaluate the relationship between the genetic structure and functionality of the consortia. In this work, the functional and structural stability over time of two bacterial consortia (C5 and C6) with the potential to remove CO2 and H2S from biogas was evaluated. Both consortia decreased the dissolved CO2 by over 30% at the end of the incubation period, but C5 presented shorter removal kinetics (3.9 days) than C6 (6.4 days). Additionally, a chemical oxidation of H2S could have occurred in the microcosms. Moreover, both consortia presented a stable genetic structure, measured by terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism profiles of the 16S rRNA gene, characterized by high homogeneity and prevalence of the genus Rhodopseudomonas throughout the incubation period, and an increasing abundance of Xanthobacter during the exponential phase of the growth curve in C5, which would account for the functionality of the consortia. 相似文献

In this article, we introduce a conceptual framework for systematic identification and assessment of sources of uncertainty in simulation models. This concept builds on a novel typology of uncertainty in model validation and extends the GIScience research focus on uncertainty in spatial data to uncertainty in simulation modelling. Such a concept helps a modeller to interpret and handle uncertainty in order to efficiently optimise a model and better understand simulation results. To illustrate our approach, we apply the proposed framework for uncertainty assessment to the TREE LIne Model (TREELIM), an individual-based model that simulates forest succession at the alpine tree line. Using this example, uncertainty is identified in the modelling workflow during conceptualisation, formalisation, parameterisation, analysis and validation. With help of a set of indicators we quantify the emerging uncertainties and assess the overall model uncertainty as a function of all occurring sources of uncertainty. An understanding of the sources of uncertainty in an ecological model proves beneficial for: (1) developing a structurally valid model in a systematic way; (2) deciding if further refinement of the conceptual model is beneficial for the modelling purpose; and (3) interpreting the overall model uncertainty by understanding its sources. Our approach results in a guideline for assessing uncertainty in the validation of simulation models in a feasible and defensible way, and thus functions as a toolbox for modellers. We consider this work as a contribution towards a general concept of uncertainty in spatially explicit simulation models. 相似文献

Filtration systems containing metallic iron as reactive medium (Fe0 beds) have been intensively used for water treatment during the last two decades. The sustainability of Fe0 beds is severely confined by two major factors: (i) reactivity loss as result of the formation of an oxide scale on Fe0 and (ii) permeability loss due to pore filling by generated iron corrosion products. Both factors are inherent to iron corrosion at pH > 4.5 and are common during the lifespan of a Fe0 bed. It is of great practical significance to improve the performance of Fe0 beds by properly addressing these key factors. Recent studies have shown that both reactivity loss and permeability loss could be addressed by mixing Fe0 and inert materials. For a non‐porous additive like quartz, the threshold value for the Fe0 volumetric proportion is 51%. Using the Fe0/quartz system as reference, this study theoretically discusses the possibility of (i) replacing Fe0 by bimetallic systems (e.g., Fe0/Cu0), or (ii) partially replacing quartz by a reactive metal oxide (MnO2 or TiO2) to improve the efficiency of Fe0 beds. Results confirmed the suitability of both tools for sustaining Fe0 bed performance. It is shown that using a Fe0:MnO2 system with the volumetric proportion 51:49 will yield a filter with 40% residual porosity at Fe0 depletion (MnO2 porosity 62%). This study improves Fe0 bed design and can be considered as a basis for further refinement and detailed research for efficient Fe0 filters. 相似文献

A 4-km thick, vertically dipping, south-facing, homoclinal, intermediate to felsic, volcaniclastic sequence in central Lake of the Woods, is underlain and overlain by subaqueous, tholeiitic basalt flows. Volcaniclastic lithologies comprise a lower tuff-breccia and lapilli-tuff assemblage, an upper turbiditic greywacke formation, and three lenticular, upward-fining, conglomerate formations interspersed within other units. Tuff-breccia and lapilli-tuff are characterized by very thick, poorly defined beds, pronounced heterogeneity, mostly angular blocks and lapilli, and a plagioclase+quartz crystal component that, in places, is incompatible with phenocryst populations in fragments. These appear to be subaqueous debris flow deposits that resulted from multistage mixing, during downslope mass transport, of fragments produced by subaerial phreatomagmatic vulcanian-type eruptions. Anomalous crystal contents represent intermixing of subaerial subplinian or plinian ash. Conglomerate formations comprise very thick, poorly defined beds composed almost entirely of well rounded, fine- to medium-grained trondhjemite. They are also subaqueous debris flow deposits but were apparently derived from wave erosion of large, flank dome complexes that periodically blocked normal transport of volcanic debris from higher on the volcano. The upper greywacke represents a shift in eruptive processes to largely plinian or subplinian eruptions. 相似文献
