Freshwater mussel assemblage structure in a regulated river in the Lower Mississippi River Alluvial Basin,USA

• 1. This paper documents a diverse, reproducing freshwater mussel community (20 species) in Lower Lake — an impounded, regulated portion of the Little Tallahatchie River below Sardis Dam in Panola Co., Mississippi, USA.
• 2. Despite being regulated and impounded, the lake has a heterogeneous array of habitats that differ markedly in mussel community attributes. Four distinct habitat types were identified based on current velocity and substrate characteristics, representing a gradient from habitats having lotic characteristics to lentic habitats. All four habitat types supported mussels, but habitats most resembling unimpounded, lotic situations (relatively higher current velocity and coarser substrate) had the highest mussel abundance and species density (10.1 mussels m^?2, 1.8 species m^?2, respectively). Lentic habitats (no flow, fine substrate) were characterized by lower abundance and species density (2.0 mussels m^?2, 0.8 species m^?2, respectively), but supported mussel assemblages distinctive from lotic habitats.
• 3. Evidence of strong recent recruitment was observed for most species in the lake and was observed in all four habitat types.
• 4. Although impounded and regulated, Lower Lake represents one of the few areas of stable large‐stream habitat in the region. The presence of a diverse, healthy mussel community in this highly modified habitat suggests that a large component of the regional mussel fauna is relatively resilient and adaptable and is limited primarily by the absence of stable river reaches. Management actions that increase stream stability are likely to result in expansion of the mussel fauna and restoration of a valuable component of ecosystem function in this region.

双流道泵内非定常固液两相流的数值分析

采用Mixture多相流模型、标准的k-ε湍流模型与SIMPLEC算法,应用FLUENT软件对双流道泵内固液两相湍流进行了非定常数值模拟.研究结果表明:不同时刻,泵流道内的压力分布明显不同,呈现周期性变化规律;在叶轮流道内,固相体积浓度分布极不均匀,颗粒主要集中于叶轮出口处的工作面和后盖板上,而在蜗壳流道内,固相颗粒多集中于离叶轮半径较大的蜗壳壁面上.

河流故道区梨树-药材立体种植技术研究及分析

河流故道区梨园内间作不同药材,研究立体模式种植技术及环境效益。结果表明：梨树-半夏复合系统中,间作半夏不会造成梨减产,半夏株行距3 cm×15 cm时,产量最高563.2kg/hm^2、收获指数最高4.6、商品指数最高57%。梨树-防风复合系统中,行距为40 cm时,防风产量最高21 610.8 kg/hm^2,收获指数最高9.3、商品指数最高100%。梨树-紫菀复合系统中,提出了氮、磷、钾肥料合理配比的施用量为1 hm^2中N∶P2O5∶K2O为115.8∶292.5∶303.5,紫菀产量为16 049.69 kg/hm^2,紫菀铜含量各处理间无显著差异。对3种复合系统进行土地利用价值分析。结果表明：梨树-半夏的LER为1.8最大,梨树-紫菀的LER为1.4最低。     

我国农村资金外流分析

在中国，“二元经济结构”导致资本发生流动偏好，资本流动偏好又加快农村资金外流的规模与速度。因此，减缓叶：国农村资金外流必须依据资本流动偏好规律，改善农村投资环境，完善农村各种金融机构职能。从而改变资金流动方向，引导资金向农村回流。     

开阔型港湾紫菜埕地轮养菲律宾蛤仔的研究

分叉角与回转半径对双向流道灌水器水力性能影响模拟研究

为研究双向流道灌水器水力性能，将其结构单元作为研究对象，以分叉角和回转半径两个结构参数为影响因素，采用正交试验设计16种结构参数组合方案，利用计算流体动力学软件Ansysfluent对流道内部流体的流动状态进行数值模拟，通过量纲分析建立流道结构参数与流道单元局部水头损失的回归模型。结果表明：双向流道单元局部水头损失与分叉角、回转半径和流道流速有关，分叉角与局部水头损失呈负相关关系，回转半径和速度与局部水头损失呈正相关关系；当入口流速为固定值时，分叉角为32.4°、回转半径为1.72 mm，流道单元局部水头损失最大；当设置10个流道单元时，交叉排列方式组合的灌水器流态指数较优。

圆柏枝叶对小鼠自发行为及生理生化指标的影响

选择城市绿化重要树种圆柏为研究对象,探讨北美圆柏枝叶对小鼠自发活动及其生理生化指标的影响及挥发性物质与环境间的关系。采用旷场分析法,将入组的30只昆明小鼠分成3组:对照组、低剂量组和高剂量组,低剂量组和高剂量组分别对应地暴露于210 g和420 g圆柏枝叶中,每天4 h,连续处理6 d,观察小鼠各行为指标,结合医学手段分析小鼠相应的生理生化指标。结果表明,小鼠的中央格运动路程、总路程及中央格运动时间都呈现一定的剂量反应;体质量呈稳定增长趋势;生理指标正常,生化指标有部分超出正常范围。经低浓度枝叶挥发物处理的小鼠兴奋性增强,探究和认知能力增强,且其食欲没有受到影响,但是引起部分生化指标的异常,其作用机制还需进一步的探索。研究结果为圆柏作为生态保健树用于城市森林人居环境建设绿化配置提供科学依据。     

Experiences of a Forest Owners’ Cooperative in using FSC forest certification as an environmental strategy

Yusuhara Forest Owners’ Cooperative (YFOC) in Kochi Prefecture in Japan received its forest management certification from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) in 2000. YFOC is recognised as the resource manager of its members’ forests, and they were the first organisation to gain such certification in Japan. With the continuous efforts of selling FSC certified wood in the domestic housing construction market, YFOC has substantially increased their timber sales in recent years. It is a noteworthy event in Japanese small-scale forestry, which has been struggling with declining economic performance for many years. This paper analyses the detail of forestry activities and changes which occurred in YFOC after certification by FSC. An interesting effect of increasing economic performance is found to have come from an unexpected direction. It is concluded that the FSC certification system is a possible tool to revitalise Japanese small-scale forestry as well as obtain favourable environmental outcomes.
