Coarse bed material patch evolution in low-order,ephemeral channels

In river channel beds composed of a wide range of grain sizes, the bed material is often arranged in discrete patches discernable by relative texture. These bed material patches are the primary source of entrainable coarse sediment within the channel system and their composition and size have been found to influence the composition and rate of sediment transport. Twelve coarse (gravel–cobble) sediment patches distributed throughout the channel network within a 4.53 ha watershed in southeastern Arizona were monitored for 2 years. Changes in patch area and grain size were measured and painted patch grains were monitored to confirm that patch grains were mobilized during flow. Individual coarse bed material patches exhibited variable persistence during flows with return frequencies ranging from approximately 1 year to 4.6 years. While no patch fully dispersed during the study period, two new patches formed. Most coarse patches remained relatively stable in area and grain-size distribution despite the entrainment of patch grains as lost grains were sufficiently replaced with sediment from upstream. Because of the grain replacement process and the effect of other sediment supply dynamics, the changes in patch area and grain-size distribution display a complex relationship with the magnitude of predicted grain mobilization within each patch. Results indicate that relative stability varies from patch to patch, influenced by the balance of patch grains transported out of the patch and the deposition of new grains into the patch. Predictive models of coarse sediment transport and yield that assume the channel bed is a fixed source of sediment supply may not adequately capture the sediment dynamics within patchy channel beds and should be used with caution when applied to these environments due to the possibility of patch instability as documented in this study.     

高等植物对钠离子的吸收、运输和累积

综述了植物对钠离子吸收、运输和累积等方面的最新研究进展。植物根系吸收钠离子的途径可能有三条,包括2条跨膜途径(钙敏感和非钙敏感两部分)和支流途径等。根系对钠离子的吸收可能是被动的,但排泄是主动的。木质部的装载可能是主动的,也可能是被动的。木质部的卸载过程还不清楚,可能是通过非选择性阳离子通道,或K /Na ,Na /H 反向运输体完成。Na 在植物体内运输需要特殊部位特殊细胞类型以协同方式运作。为了减少Na 通过木质部的质外体部分向地上部输送,根系靠外的部分细胞要减少流入,而内层细胞应该加大流入。我们需要了解更多的特殊细胞运输过程,和特殊细胞的载体及信号操作过程的知识。     

运输应激对AA肉鸡组织结构的影响

集约化养殖的畜禽进出养殖场和屠宰前都必须经过运输,运输过程中由于捕捉、挤压、断水、断食、噪音及过度疲劳等原因所造成的运输应激会导致动物的生理、心理状态和代谢过程发生相应地变化,严重时甚至会死亡,给畜牧业生产带来巨大损失。本试验利用组织学及病理学方法研究了不同的运输时间对AA肉鸡不同组织造成的影响。选取生长状况相似健康的7周龄AA肉鸡40只,随机分成4组,每组10只,分别运输2h、3h、4h和5h,结束后立即剖杀,取心、肝、脾、肺、肾、胸腺等不同组织置于10%甲醛中,H-E染色光学显微镜下观察并拍照。结果表明:运输应激初期(2h)多数组织出现毛细血管扩张充血、细胞肿胀等急性病理性变化。运输3h到4h各组织的病理改变与初期相似但有所加重,运输5h心脏出现了心肌纤维的断裂,胸腺、脾、肾出现了功能衰竭等现象。由此可见,运输应激可导致组织细胞应激性损伤,并且组织损伤的程度随着运输时间的延长而有所波动。     

Impacts of Municipal Wastewater on The Transport Characteristics of Reactive Solutes Through Agricultural Soils

Reliable transport parameters of agrochemicals and soluble pollutants are crucial for modeling and management of soil and groundwater quality. This study investigated impacts of municipal wastewater on the transport parameters of five heavy metal/metalloid compounds (NaAsO₂, Cd(NO₃)₂, Pb(NO₃)₂, Ni(NO₃)₂ & ZnCl₂), two pesticides (cartap & carbendazim) and an inert salt (CaCl₂) in four agricultural soils of Bangladesh. Solute-breakthrough concentrations were measured in repacked soil columns with time-domain reflectometry (TDR) both before and after wastewater treatment. Transport velocity (V), dispersion coefficient (D), dispersivity (λ) and retardation factor (R) of the solutes, and pertinent soil properties were determined. Wastewater reduced bulk density (γ) of the soils (from 1.32–1.37 g/cm³ to 1.26–1.35 g/cm³) by increasing organic carbon (OC) (from 0.37%–0.84% to 0.40–0.93%), increased pore-size distribution index (n) (by 0.02 unit) and reduced soil pH (from 6.32–7.45 to 5.92–6.46). D and λ decreased while V and R increased after wastewater treatment; D decreased and R increased linearly with decreasing bulk density. The correlations of V, D, and R with n improved significantly (p < 0.05) after wastewater treatment. The correlation between λ and OC improved markedly for Ca, Pb, Ni, and cartap. The observed indicative results have practical implications in developing pedo-transfer functions for solute-transport parameters using basic soil properties, which are subject to progressive modification due to agrochemicals application and wastewater irrigation.

Periglacial transport distance of Pb derived from small-scale ore veins in the Rhenish Slate Mountains

The spatial extent of metal contamination caused by small-scale ore veins is increased by periglacial solifluction. Our objectives were (1) to examine the spatial distribution of Pb in cover beds that migrated over Pb ore veins, (2) to calculate the transport distance of ore-derived Pb, and (3) to determine controls on the transport distance.We examined six transects (320-775 m long) in the Rhenish Slate Mountains in West Germany. The transects included four west-exposed and two east-exposed slopes with inclinations between 2-20°. All transects were forest-covered and located at 280-450 m above sea level. Soils were Dystric Cambisols and Stagnic Luvisols. Samples of 120 B horizons developed in the sediments of the last ice age (Wuerm) were analyzed for total Pb concentrations and partly also ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁷Pb ratios. The Pb concentrations ranged from 20 to 135 mg kg^− 1. The spatial Pb distribution suggested that 14 (out of 18) sampling points showing local Pb concentration maxima contained Pb from ore veins upslope. With a two-end-member-mixing model using ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁷Pb isotope ratios of the ore (²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁷Pb ratio: 1.1828) as one end member and of the native substrate (a mixture of slate and loess; ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁷Pb ratio: 1.2254 ± 0.0072) as the other we confirmed that the 14 Pb peaks originated from the ore, because they contained 76-100% of ore-derived Pb. By the use of a geographic information system, the transport distance of this Pb was determined to range between 30 and 110 m. Silt concentrations (Pearson r = − 0.69) and the relief curvature (Cramér's V = 0.60) were major controls on the transport distance. Our study demonstrates that Pb ore veins can increase native soil Pb concentrations in soil derived from the periglacial drift of the last ice age (Wuerm) up to a distance of more than 100 m.

Phylogenetic and expression analysis of the magnesium transporter family in pear,and functional verification of PbrMGT7 in pear pollen

The magnesium ion (Mg²⁺) is the most abundant divalent cation in living cells, and it plays essential roles in various cellular functions. Mg²⁺ homeostasis in plant cells is crucial for plant growth. The MRS2/MGT family of proteins localise to various membranes, and they function during Mg²⁺ transport in plants, but their functions are largely unknown in fruit trees. In this study, we performed a genome-wide analysis to identify the MGT gene family members in the pear Pyrus bretschneideri. Sixteen MGT genes were identified. Analysis of the activity of pear pollen showed that a low-concentration magnesium ion treatment was beneficial for pollen germination and pollen tube growth. None of the 16 MGT genes were expressed in any unique tissue, including pollen, and their expression in magnesium-treated pollen varied greatly, where PbrMGT7 was the most sensitive and it was tested as a representative. PbrMGT7 could functionally complement a bacterial strain deficient in Mg²⁺, thereby indicating a role in magnesium transport. A co-localisation experiment confirmed that PbrMGT7 was localised in the mitochondria, which suggests that PbrMGT7 could mediate Mg-trafficking between the mitochondria and cytosol. Overall, these results suggest that PbrMGT7 is related to Mg²⁺ homeostasis during pear pollen tube growth.??
