崇明东滩越冬鸟类在养殖塘的空间分布

鸟类对空间的利用直接反映对栖息地的选择。通过对崇明东滩养殖塘越冬鸟类群落调查,运用空间自相关检验、空间插值分析和景观格局分析,研究越冬鸟类在养殖塘人工湿地的空间分布格局。结果显示:雁鸭类和鸻鹬类在养殖塘分布特征显著不同。雁鸭类呈现显著的空间自相关,为聚集分布,且丰富度和多度分布较为一致;而鸻鹬类在养殖塘以随机分布为主,丰富度显示一定的聚集分布。养殖塘已经成为崇明东滩越冬鸟类重要的栖息地,不同生态类群栖息地选择存在差异:芦苇植被发育好,水域面积较小且水深较深,不同斑块以聚集为特征的养殖塘是雁鸭类的适宜生境;鸻鹬类则偏好一定芦苇植被、水域面积大且水深较浅的养殖塘。因此在保护区土地利用和管理时应考虑不同生态类群对栖息地选择的差异。     

长江口滩涂围垦后水鸟群落结构的变化——以南汇东滩为例

近年来长江口滩涂湿地高强度的促淤围垦对生物多样性保育造成了严重影响。本研究于2006至2010年在南汇东滩进行了水鸟调查,研究围垦后堤内环境的快速演替过程对水鸟的群落结构的影响。通过分析鸻鹬类、雁鸭类和鹭类三类主要水鸟类群,结果表明鸻鹬类的总数呈严重下降趋势（ANOVA, p=0.009）,而雁鸭类和鹭类总数在上升（ANOVA,p=0.015;p=0.00）;在种类数量方面,鸻鹬类和雁鸭类差异不显著（ANOVA,p=0.597;p=0.523）,鹭类种类数变化极显著（ANOVA ,p=0.00）。同时,通过对水鸟的栖息地选择因子偏好的分析, 发现滩涂减少是鸻鹬类减少的主要因素,而大型鱼塘和芦苇增加是雁鸭类和鹭类增加的重要原因。为此我们提出相应海岸带湿地管理建议。     

上海市南汇东滩围垦后海岸带湿地冬春季水鸟生境选择

2009年12月-2010年5月,对上海市南汇东滩围垦后城市湖泊湿地、实验修复湿地、抛荒湿地等三类人工湿地冬季雁鸭类群落和春季鸻鹬类群落展开调查,并对雁鸭类和鸻鹬类群落特征与相应生境因子进行相关分析.结果显示:三类湿地雁鸭类的种类无显著差异,但密度有显著差异:实验修复湿地是抛荒湿地的3.77倍,是城市湖泊湿地的6.03倍.鸻鹬类种类和密度:实验修复湿地分别是抛荒湿地的2.88和5.70倍.两者种类和密度差异均极显著.雁鸭类种类、密度、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数(H')与明水面面积显著正相关;种类、H'与植被面积显著负相关;种类、密度、H'均匀度与植被盖度显著负相关;H'与平均水位显著正相关.鸻鹬类种类、密度均与裸露浅滩面积显著正相关.建议对已围垦土地的利用以大中型鱼蟹塘、水田为主,以提供足够的明水面给越冬的雁鸭类栖息.通过割除植被等方法在春季提供一定的裸露浅滩面积供迁徙的鸻鹬类栖息.     

遥感与GIS支持下的崇明东滩迁徙鸟类生境适宜性分析

崇明东滩鸟类自然保护区位于长江入海口,是国际迁徙鸟类重要的栖息地.受自然和社会因素影响,该地区鸟类栖息环境正处于快速变化.研究采用面向对象的图像分割方法提取鸟类生境适宜性多边形评价单元,根据近年来野外调查数据分析了影响迁徙鸟类生存的地类、植被、潮沟、底栖生物等关键环境因素,建立了鸟类与关键环境影响因素的定性定量关系.在此基础上利用GIS空间分析方法和技术,进行了崇明东滩鸟类保护区内主要四大鸟类种群雁鸭类、鸻鹬类、鹭类以及鸥类的生境适宜性分析.结果表明:(1)崇明东滩迁徙鸟类生境较适宜的面积占保护区总面积40%左右;(2)光滩区域、与光滩邻近的海三棱藨草带以及潮沟地带是鸟类生境适宜性较好的地理区域;(3)基于面向对象的遥感分析技术和GIS空间分析技术,能有效且简便地对生态环境处于快速动态变化中的物种生境适宜性进行快速、客观准确的分析评价,其结果可为崇明东滩鸟类种群及其生存环境规划、保护和管理提供基础科学依据.     

崇明东滩鸻鹬类迁徙路线的环志分析

崇明东滩为东亚-澳大利西亚鸻鹬类迁徙路线上的重要迁徙停歇地.本文通过分析崇明东滩回收的异地环志鸻鹬类记录及异地回收的崇明东滩环志的鸻鹬类记录,研究崇明东滩鸻鹬类的迁徙路线.1979～2008年间,崇明东滩共回收到来自澳大利亚西北部、澳大利亚维多利亚、美国阿拉斯加及新西兰北岛等17个国家与地区环志的鸻鹬类265只,包括大滨鹬(Calidris tenuirostris)、斑尾塍鹬(Limosa lapponica)、红腹滨鹬(C.canutus)等16种鸟类,其中春季北迁期间的记录占总数的93%;2003～2008年间,澳大利亚西北部、新西兰南岛、中国大陆及新西兰北岛等10个国家与地区回收到崇明东滩环志的大滨鹬、斑尾塍鹬、红腹滨鹬等12种鸟类,共计164只.在所有与崇明东滩鸻鹬类存在迁徙连接的20个国家和地区中,澳大利亚西北部的回收记录占全部回收记录的55%.根据斑尾塍鹬和红腹滨鹬不同亚种的越冬地分布,崇明东滩回收的斑尾塍鹬有L.l.menzbieri与L.l.baueri两个亚种,红腹滨鹬有C.a.piersmai和C.a.rogersi两个亚种.     

围填海对盐城珍禽自然保护区越冬水鸟群落及空间分布的影响

盐城自然保护区是全球水鸟重要的越冬地之一, 随着近几十年来围填海活动强度的不断增加, 其景观格局发生了重大变化, 这种改变势必会影响越冬水鸟的群落结构和空间分布。因此, 以盐城自然保护区北缓冲区和核心区作为研究区, 根据 1975—2013 年研究区土地利用类型变化图将其划分为围垦区和未围垦区, 分析了 2009—2013 年围垦区和未围垦区之间越冬水鸟种类、数量、多样性和空间分布的差异。结果表明: 1)围填海对水鸟的种类组成具有显著的影响, 围垦区雁鸭类水鸟的种类和数量显著高于未围垦区。土地利用类型的改变对水鸟的种类数具有显著影响, 围填海对芦苇和盐田的水鸟种类数量影响显著; 2)围填海造成土地利用类型的改变对水鸟的 Shannon-Wiener 指数具有显著的影响, 其中围垦区鱼塘的 Shannon-Wiener 指数显著高于未围垦区; 3)未围垦区碱蓬生境水鸟多度最大, 围垦区芦苇生境水鸟多度最大, 围填海造成的生境类型的改变对鹳类、鹤类、鸻鹬类、雁鸭类水鸟的栖息地选择具有较大影响。结果强调围垦后生境的可利用性和人为干扰大小决定了水鸟的群落结构和空间分布。     

东亚-澳大利亚迁徙路线上鸻形目水鸟适宜生境变化:以崇明东滩迁徙停歇地为例

崇明东滩湿地是鸻形目水鸟东亚-澳大利亚迁徙路线上的重要迁徙停歇地。本文借助Landsat ETM+遥感影像对研究地区2000—2010年鸻形目水鸟适宜生境(海三棱藨草和滩涂湿地)的变化进行动态监测,并借助FRAGSTATS景观指数对适宜生境的景观特征进行分析。结果表明,鸻形目水鸟的适宜生境的总面积为10305.52 hm2,仅次于深水区湿地(15918.66 hm2)。海三棱藨草和滩涂湿地的总面积在2000—2006年缓慢增加(从10448.2hm2增加到10696.5 hm2)。海三棱藨草和滩涂湿地面积的增加主要由深水区湿地转化而来,而其面积的减少主要被芦苇和互花米草湿地所取代。与2000年相比,海三棱藨草和滩涂湿地的景观异质性和破碎程度在2010年趋于增加(2000—2006年趋于增加,2006—2010年趋于下降)。在整个景观尺度上,所有湿地的异质性和破碎程度在2000—2006年趋于增加,而在2006—2010年趋于下降。从景观特征来看,研究地区鸻形目水鸟适宜生境的质量(生境组成/要素配置、复杂性、连接性和异质性等)在2000—2006年趋于下降,而在2006—2010年趋于增加。本文结果有助于指导湿地修复与营造策略的制定,以更好地实现在长江河口湿地保护迁徙鸻形目水鸟。     

陕西红碱淖湿地水鸟组成及多样性分析

杭州湾及钱塘江河口水鸟群落组成、季节动态及种间相关性分析

2007年7月-2010年11月,对杭州湾曹娥江口至甬江口间潮间带及其附近海涂水库的水鸟群落进行定期监测,共记录9目18科128种.其中,候鸟119种,占总数的93％;而国家重点保护鸟类11种.对13种鸻鹬类和9种鸭类进行种群数量随时间变化的种间相关性分析,两个类群各有21对和23对显著相关.通过对水鸟季节动态及其迁徙模式分析,将其迁徙过程分为6个阶段,即:4月上旬-5月中旬、7月下旬-9月下旬(旅鸟迁徙高峰期)、2月下旬-3月下旬、10月上旬-12月中旬(冬候鸟迁徙高峰期)、12月下旬-次年2月中旬(越冬期)和5月下旬-7月中旬(繁殖期).种间吸引作用可能是影响该区域迁徙季节鸻鹬类和越冬地鸭类群落组成的重要原因,而该区域特殊地理位置和水鸟群落构成可能是造成鸻鹬类春秋季迁徙高峰数量巨大差异的主要因素.     

滹沱河湿地石家庄段水鸟群落结构及多样性

2003年3月～2006年4月,对滹沱河湿地石家庄段水鸟进行了调查。共记录水鸟80种,隶属于7目16科。其中候鸟73种(夏候鸟、冬候鸟和旅鸟),留鸟7种;古北种62种,东洋种11种,广布种7种;国家Ⅰ、Ⅱ级重点保护鸟类11种。鸻形目和雁形目鸟类占优势,各占水鸟种数的35.00%和30.00%。水鸟种类和数量高峰出现在4月和11月,低谷在1月和2月。多样性分析表明,冶河-黄壁庄水库和滹沱河-岗南水库Shannon-Weiner指数和G-F指数均高于石板水库,这与湿地面积和生境的多样性有关。滹沱河湿地石家庄段作为许多水鸟,尤其是黑鹳的重要栖息地,需进一步加强监测和保护。     

Numerical approaches towards life cycle interpretation five examples

The ISO-standard for LCA distinguishes four phases, of which the last one, the interpretation, is the least elaborated. It can be regarded as containing procedural steps (like a completeness check) as well as numerical steps (like a sensitivity check). This paper provides five examples of techniques that can be used for the numerical steps. These are the contribution analysis, the perturbation analysis, the uncertainty analysis, the comparative analysis, and the discernibility analysis. All five techniques are described at a non-technical level with respect to basic concept, possibilities, tabular and graphical representation, restriction and warnings, and all are illustrated with a simple example.     

影响水稻光合日变化的酶和相关因素的分析

水稻叶片的最大光合速率出现在上午１０：００时,Ｒｕｂｉｓｃｏ初始活力也在此时达到最大,然后逐渐降低,下午１４：００时略上升后又下降．Ｒｕｂｉｓｃｏ初始活力与光合速率之间极显著相关,相关系数为 ０．９４７４．运用相关性分析、回归分析、通径分析,对晴（有时有云）天气水稻叶片的光合速度、光合关键酶及有关因素的日变化进行综合评估,结果发现中午光合下降主要来自气孔限制,同时Ｒｕｂｉｓｃｏ活性也下降;Ｒｕｂｉｓｃｏ活性是影响光合日变化的又一重要生化因子．体内Ｒｕｂｉｓｃｏ活性受Ｒｕｂｉｓｃｏ活化酶的调节．     

Discrimination of higher plant calluses based on embryogenic capacity and taxonomic classification by pyrolysis mass spectrometry

Pyrolysis mass spectrometry (PyMS) is a rapid, simple, high-resolution analytical method based on thermal degradation of complex material in a vacuum, and has been widely applied to the discrimination of closely related microbial strains. Minimally prepared samples of embryogenic and non-embryogenic calluses derived from various higher plants (sweet potato, morning glory, Korean ginseng, Siberian ginseng, and balloon flower) were subjected to PyMS for spectral fingerprinting. A dendrogram based on the unweighted pair group method, with arithmetic mean of pyrolysis mass spectra, divided the calluses into Siberian ginseng embryogenic callus and the others, which were subsequently divided into embryogenic and non-embryogenic callus groups, regardless of plant species from which the calluses were derived. In the non-embryogenic callus group, the dendrogram was in agreement with the known taxonomy of the plants. These results indicate that PyMS analysis could be applied for discriminating plant calluses based on embryogenic capacity and taxonomic classification.     

Intraspecific variation in Licuala glabra Griff. (Palmae) in Peninsular Malaysia– a morphometric analysis

We studied vegetative and reproductive characters of 74 herbarium specimens of Licuala glabra Griff. (Palmae) collected from 22 localities throughout Peninsular Malaysia. To test the null hypothesis that there are no distinct groups within the species, cluster analysis (nearest neighbour), principal coordinates and principal components analyses were performed on the set of 43 qualitative and quantitative characters. The results obtained suggested that: (1) there are three infraspeciflc groups within the species, viz., the two published varieties glabra and selangorensis as well as a possible third novel taxon; (2) there is clustering of individuals corresponding to their geographic localities; (3) clusters generated using only reproductive characters indicate a biogeographic distribution of populations correlated with the mountain ranges in the peninsula.     

Fish ecoregions of Kansas: stream fish assemblage patterns and associated environmental correlates

Synopsis Principal components analysis was performed on fish presence/absence data for 39 common fish species from 410 stream sites in Kansas. The analysis confirmed ten ecologically meaningful fish assemblages, based on species associations. Factor scores based on these assemblages were then clustered into six geographic areas or fish ecoregions. Canonical discriminant analysis identified environmental variables that distinguished the derived fish ecoregions. Mean annual runoff, mean annual growing season, and discharge appear most important. Mean width, mean depth, chloride concentration, water temperature, substrate type, gradient, and percent of pool habitat were less important. Correspondence exists between these fish ecoregions and the patterns of physiographic regions, river basins, geology, soil, and potential natural vegetation in Kansas. The multivariate statistical approach used to classify fish ecoregions should have considerable potential value for fish assessment and management purposes in areas other than the state of Kansas.     

Some remarks about the analysis of active control studies

In an active-controlled trial, the experimental treatment can be declared to be non-inferior to the control if the confidence interval for the difference excludes a fixed pre-specified margin. Recently, some articles have discussed an alternative method where the data from the current study and placebo-controlled studies for the active control are combined together into a single test statistic to test whether a fixed fraction of the effect of the active control is preserved. It has been shown that, conditional on nuisance parameters from the active-controlled study, a fixed margin can be defined that will be operationally equivalent to this latter method. In this article, we will discuss statistical properties associated with these approaches. Specifically, the interim monitoring boundaries and level of evidence will be considered.     

Normal Approximations of Exact Tests in Configural Frequency Analysis

The most common tests for types and antitypes in configural frequency analysis are normal approximations of exact tests. In the paper such statistics under the complete independence model and under the fixed margins model are discussed. It turns out that these test statistics are not acceptable when the number of simultaneously performed tests is large or when the expected frequencies are small. In these cases, the use of exact tests is advocated and some existing computer programs for such tests are indicated. A normal approximation based on the strong version of the De Moivre-Laplace limit theorem is also discussed. Empirical examples are given from longitudinal data describing psychological development of boys.     

Phenotypic evaluation of genetic variability and selection of yield contributing traits in chickpea recombinant inbred line population under high temperature stress

Heat is a major abiotic stress that drastically reduces chickpea yield. This study aimed to identify heat-responsive traits to sustain crop productivity by screening a recombinant inbred line (RILs) population at two locations in India (Ludhiana and Faridkot). The RIL population was derived from an inter-specific cross between heat-tolerant genotype GPF 2 (C. arietinum L.) and heat sensitive accession ILWC 292 (C. reticulatum). The pooled analysis of variance showed highly significant differences for all the traits in RILs and most of the traits were significantly affected by heat stress at both locations. High values of genotypic coefficient of variation (19.52–38.53%), phenotypic coefficient of variation (20.29–39.85%), heritability (92.50–93.90%), and genetic advance as a percentage of mean (38.68–76.74%) have been observed for plant height, number of pods per plant, biomass, yield, and hundred seed weight across the heat stress environments. Association studies and principal component analysis showed a significant positive correlation of plant height, number of pods per plant, biomass, hundred seed weight, harvest index, relative leaf water content, and pollen viability with yield under both timely-sown and late-sown conditions. Path analysis revealed that biomass followed by harvest index was the major contributor to yield among the environments. Both step-wise and multiple regression analyses concluded that number of pods per plant, biomass and harvest index consistently showed high level of contribution to the total variation in yield under both timely-sown and late-sown conditions. Thus, the holistic approach of these analyses illustrated that the promising traits provide a framework for developing heat-tolerant cultivars in chickpea.Supplementary InformationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12298-021-00977-5.     

分子水平的遗传多样性及其测量方法

遗传多样性水平是一项很重要的数据。目前从分子水平量化遗传多样性的方法以等位酶分析、ＲＦＬＰ分析和ＲＡＰＤ分析为代表。遗传变异在基因组中并非随机分布,所以取样方式对分析结果的影响不容忽视。本文叙述了遗传变异的产生和分布,并以此为基础比较了上述３种分析方法的理论与实践。     

凡纳滨对虾各月龄性状的主成分与判别分析

为了研究凡纳滨对虾各性状增长规律和判定最佳生长季节凡纳滨对虾的体格与月龄的关系,选择1～6月龄凡纳滨对虾各1000只,选择全长、体长、第一腹节背高、第三腹节背高、第一腹节背宽、头胸甲长和体重共7个性状,进行主成分与判别分析.结果表明:各月龄凡纳滨对虾性状之间均呈现显著的正相关(P<0.01), 其中以全长与体长的相关性最为明显,1月龄凡纳滨对虾体重与形态性状的相关系数较小.各月龄凡纳滨对虾的主成分有所不同,1～2月龄凡纳滨对虾的第一主成分为长度因子,第二主成分为宽度因子,第三主成分为高度因子;3月龄凡纳滨对虾的第一主成分与1～2月龄凡纳滨对虾一致,但第二主成分为高度因子,第三主成分为体重因子;4～6月龄凡纳滨对虾的第一主成分为体重因子,第二主成分为高度因子,第三主成分为宽度因子.1～3月龄凡纳滨对虾形态性状的增长优先于体重, 4～6月龄凡纳滨对虾体重优先于形态性状的增长.错过最佳生长季节的凡纳滨对虾的与体格大小相符的月龄可通过建立的判别式来判断,总的判别准确率为98.98%,其中2～4月龄凡纳滨对虾的判别准确率为100%.
