Assessing the potential impacts of alternative landscape designs on amphibian population dynamics

An individual-based, spatially explicit population model was used to predict the consequences of future land-use alternatives for populations of four amphibian species in two central Iowa (midwest USA) agricultural watersheds. The model included both breeding and upland habitat and incorporated effects of climatic variation and demographic stochasticity. Data requirements of the model include life history characteristics, dispersal behavior, habitat affinities, as well as land use and landcover in geographic information systems databases. Future scenarios were ranked according to change in breeder abundance, saturation, and distribution, compared to baseline conditions. Sensitivity of simulation results to changes in model parameters was also examined. Simulated results suggest that while all four species modeled are likely to persist under present and future scenario conditions, two may be more at risk from future landscape change. Although the study species are all widespread generalists regarded as having a low conservation priority, they depend on wetlands and ponds, increasingly endangered habitats in agricultural landscapes. Broader conservation strategies in the region would ensure that these currently common organisms do not become the endangered species of the future.This revised version was published online in May 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Simulating evolution of glyphosate resistance in Lolium rigidum II: past, present and future glyphosate use in Australian cropping

Glyphosate is a key component of weed control strategies in Australia and worldwide. Despite widespread and frequent use, evolved resistance to glyphosate is rare. A herbicide resistance model, parameterized for Lolium rigidum has been used to perform a number of simulations to compare predicted rates of evolution of glyphosate resistance under past, present and projected future use strategies. In a 30‐year wheat, lupin, wheat, oilseed rape crop rotation with minimum tillage (100% shallow depth soil disturbance at sowing) and annual use of glyphosate pre‐sowing, L. rigidum control was sustainable with no predicted glyphosate resistance. When the crop establishment system was changed to annual no‐tillage (15% soil disturbance at sowing), glyphosate resistance was predicted in 90% of populations, with resistance becoming apparent after between 10 and 18 years when sowing was delayed. Resistance was predicted in 20% of populations after 25–30 years with early sowing. Risks of glyphosate resistance could be reduced by rotating between no‐tillage and minimum‐tillage establishment systems, or by rotating between glyphosate and paraquat for pre‐sowing weed control. The double knockdown strategy (sequential full rate applications of glyphosate and paraquat) reduced risks of glyphosate and paraquat resistance to <2%. Introduction of glyphosate‐resistant oilseed rape significantly increased predicted risks of glyphosate resistance in no‐tillage systems even when the double knockdown was practised. These increased risks could be offset by high crop sowing rates and weed seed collection at harvest. When no selective herbicides were available in wheat crops, the introduction of glyphosate‐resistant oilseed rape necessitated a return to a minimum‐tillage crop establishment system.     

桃品种需冷量评价模式的探讨

 通过1986～2001年对450余份桃品种需冷量的7．2℃模式、0～7．2℃模式(不包括0℃)和犹它模式比较分析，归纳出桃品种需冷量的评价模式为：以秋季日平均温度稳定低于7．2~C的日期为需冷量测定的起点，以0～7．2℃累积低温值作为需冷量的评价标准比较适宜；犹它模式在中需冷量和长需冷量范围内能有效预测休眠的结束，而不适宜低需冷量品种的测定；7．2℃模式不适宜作为需冷量的评价模式。品种的需冷量与叶芽开放和始花期的相关系数分别为0．52和0．58，均达到极显著水平。提出了桃品种需冷量评价的系列标准参照品种。     

气候变化情景下毛竹潜在分布及动态预测

为探究毛竹的潜在分布及其动态变化,并确定对其分布起主导作用的环境变量,文章基于MaxEnt预测模型,利用环境变量图层及316个毛竹分布点数据研究毛竹地理分布的变化。结果显示：1）限制毛竹分布的主要环境变量为最干月降水量、年均降水量、最冷月最低温、年平均温、温度年较差和海拔;2）当前毛竹的潜在适生区主要位于中国东南部,与亚热带季风气候区大致重叠,高适生区主要位于总适生区的东部和西北部;3）在未来气候情景下,毛竹总适生区面积有所缩减,各不同等级适生区面积变化大,其中高适生区面积大幅度缩减。研究获得的毛竹适生区变化趋势可为毛竹培育、引种以及入侵防治提供参考。     

基于ITGTM的中国入境旅游人数增长趋势研究

本文在分析中国入境旅游人数增长趋势研究现状和研究方法不足的基础上,提出入境旅游增长趋势理论模型(inbound tourism groth trend theoretical model简称ITGTM)。将入境旅游增长趋势理论模型应用于中国入境旅游人数增长趋势研究,依据1978~2006年中国入境旅游人数年统计数据,建立了以1978年为起点,正常年份里的中国入境旅游人数增长的具体数学模型。根据数学模型,结合微分学,分析入境旅游人数增长的趋势(包括增长性和波动性),对我国"89风波"、"98洪水和金融危机"、"SARS"与禽流感对我国入境旅游人数的影响进行了评估,对我国2007~2010年的入境旅游人数做出预测,并将我国入境旅游人数增长划分为1978~1984、1985以来两个发展阶段。     

大花蕙兰营养生长期植株生长与辐热积关系的模拟模型研究

根据光照辐射和温度对大花蕙兰生长状况的影响,通过‘明月’和‘梦幻’两个品种在两个温室中的试验,建立了以辐热积为指标的温室大花蕙兰生长指标预测模型,并使用独立的试验数据对模型进行检验。结果表明：模型对于大花蕙兰两个品种‘明月’和‘梦幻’母球、子球、孙球植株最长叶长、假鳞茎直径、展叶数的预测值与实际观测值的决定系数（R2）分别高于0.98、0.98、0.95;回归估计标准误差（RMSE）分别低于2.06 cm、0.85 mm、1.21 片;预测相对误差（RSE）分别低于4.8%、2.8%、8.8%。表明该模型对以上生长指标的预测精度较高,可为温室大花蕙兰生产中的光照和温度的调控提供理论依据。

鲜牛奶营养评价与FOP标签方案

为指导消费者选购整体营养价值高的鲜牛奶,以及优化鲜牛奶供给结构,本文借鉴瑞典锁孔(Keyhole)标识、较健康选择标志、指引星标签、选择标识、NuVal评分标签的营养素度量法以及评价鲜牛奶的营养成分、信息显示形式等国外实践经验,构建富含营养素食物(NRF)9.3模型,对《中国食物成分表》(第6版第2册)收录的鲜牛奶(全脂,光明鲜牛奶)、鲜牛奶(全脂,现代牧场鲜牛奶)、鲜牛奶(全脂,完达山鲜牛乳)、鲜牛奶(全脂,辉山鲜博士鲜牛奶)、鲜牛奶(全脂,一鸣鲜牛奶)、鲜牛奶(全脂,新希望千岛湖牧场鲜牛奶)6种鲜牛奶营养数据开展营养评价。结果发现,6种鲜牛奶的NRF 9.3值均大于0,每418.4 kJ的鼓励性营养成分含量均高于限制性营养成分含量,但这些鲜牛奶间的营养价值差别不大。虽然6种鲜牛奶适用于评分、评级FOP标签方案,但鲜牛奶仅能以2～3星级展示,不及评分的区分度高,更适合采用评分型方案。
