三峡库区古夫河着生藻类叶绿素a的时空分布特征及其影响因素

古夫河系长江三峡水库湖北省境内香溪河的一条支流,发源于神农架林区并最终汇入三峡水库香溪河库湾,是流域生态学研究的热点水体。本文对古夫河2010年9月至2011年8月干流及主要支流21个样点的着生藻类叶绿素a和14项环境因子进行了调查,采用多元统计方法对调查数据进行了方差分析、聚类分析、偏相关分析和逐步回归分析,研究了着生藻类叶绿素a的时空分布特征及其主要环境影响因子。结果表明：叶绿素a含量范围为0.07—145.96 mg/m2,平均值为11.63 mg/m2。不同样点的叶绿素a含量差异显著,其中古夫河干流上游低于下游,支流竹园河上游高于下游,表现为人为影响大的区域高于人为影响小的区域;不同季节着生藻类叶绿素a含量差异显著,表现出冬春季高、夏秋季低的趋势。古夫河着生藻类叶绿素a与总磷和硬度呈极显著正相关,与电导率、氨氮和总氮呈显著正相关,而与流速呈极显著负相关;水体总磷是古夫河流域着生藻类生长的第一限制因子,流速对着生藻类的生长具有显著抑制作用;古夫河着生藻类生物量空间格局可能由其生境尺度（营养盐）和流域尺度（硬度和电导率）的特征决定,而古夫河着生藻类生物量时间变化主要受水动力（流速）的影响。

中国典型丘陵区人口密集乡村景观的土壤碳氮磷分布特征

基于IKONOS高分辨率(1 m)卫星遥感图,根据生态立地分层分类规则,评价了四川盆地、江南山地和华南山地等典型丘陵区人口密集的乡村景观结构对0～30 cm土壤有机碳(SOC)、全氮(TN)和全磷(TP)密度及储量的影响.结果表明：SOC密度的面积加权平均值为江南山地丘陵(2.72±0.76 kg·m^-2) > 华南山地丘陵(2.65±0.73 kg·m^-2)>四川盆地丘陵(2.15±0.57 kg·m^-2);TN密度的面积加权平均值为江南山地丘陵(0.28±0.06 kg·m^-2) >四川盆地丘陵(0.27±0.06 kg·m^-2) >华南山地丘陵(0.21±0.06 kg·m^-2);TP密度的面积加权平均值为四川盆地丘陵(0.19±0.04 kg·m^-2) >江南山地丘陵(0.11±0.03 kg·m^-2)>华南山地丘陵(0.08±0.04 kg·m^-2).四川盆地、江南山地和华南山地丘陵SOC、TN和TP储量最高的生态立地类型分别为小规模1年生旱地作物、两季水田和斜坡次生阔叶疏林.SOC和TN密度均以水田或林地最高,而以低覆盖度的挖掘地和山顶旱地最低,TP密度的分布较为复杂.细微尺度的生态立地水平分析可以较好地反映出丘陵区人口密集乡村景观地区的生态结构和SOC、TN、TP的分布情况.     

香溪河小水电的梯级开发对浮游藻类的影响

以香溪河干流上5个连续的小水电站为对象,于2005年10月20—22日分别对其浮游藻类和主要理化指标进行研究.结果表明：硅藻占绝对优势(95.54%),其中,线性曲壳藻(Achnanthes linearis)、披针曲壳藻椭圆变种(A. lanceolata var. elliptica)、扁圆卵形藻(Cocconeis placentula)为绝对优势种,其平均相对丰富度分别为23.96%、18.62%和12.48%;所有样点的平均藻类密度为6.29×10⁵ ind·L^-1,最高为1.81×10⁶ ind·L^-1,最低为2.35×10⁵ ind·L^-1.方差分析表明,流速变化是小水电站开发影响河流中浮游藻类的主要原因.电站取水坝的建立,使其下游生境(生境3)与其它4个生境显著不同,导致多个参数出现骤变,包括Margalef多样性指数、物种丰富度、属的丰富度、硅藻组成、硅藻百分含量等均受到显著影响.     

在不同蓄水位下三峡库区春季水华特征及趋势分析

基于2004—2015年三峡库区支流春季水华的监测数据,开展了三峡库区不同蓄水位下春季水华特征及趋势分析。结果表明:总共有26条支流发生春季水华,香溪河为水华发生概率最高的支流。水华藻类优势种主要是硅藻和甲藻,甲藻水华出现的概率随着蓄水位的增加而增加,但是在持续几年175 m蓄水之后,甲藻水华出现的频率下降,硅藻水华出现的频率增加。在175 m蓄水之前,水华发生期藻类密度、叶绿素a含量及水体营养盐水平相对较低,此后都有了较高的提升,但是在持续几年175 m蓄水之后,藻类密度、叶绿素a浓度以及营养盐浓度都有下降趋势。对藻密度及叶绿素a含量与主要环境因子进行主成分分析(Principal components analysis)发现,藻密度和叶绿素a与总磷、总氮、高锰酸盐指数聚类一簇,藻密度、叶绿素a浓度与总磷、溶解氧、高锰酸盐指数显著正相关。在蓄水之后,三峡库区支流营养水平有所增加,随着蓄水位的增加,三峡库区支流断面的平均流速降低,在合适的温度下,三峡库区支流水华易发生。     

三峡水库香溪河库湾夏季水华调查

以三峡水库支流香溪河为研究对象,以2011年夏季的采样数据为基础,比较分析了水华前后支流库湾营养盐和叶绿素a的时空分布规律及其相关性。结果表明,2011年6月21—29日,香溪河暴发了显著的藻类水华,叶绿素a峰值达到125.8 mg·m-3。相关分析表明,水华过程显著影响可溶性无机N、P的空间分布,营养盐空间分布从中游高、河口低,转变为从河口至上游递减,并且在水华区域锐减;长江干流较高的营养盐本底值增大了支流库湾水华的风险;高营养盐背景值的长江干流水体在香溪河库湾的潜出位置是水华最严重的区域;干流水体对库湾表层的营养盐补给作用是影响库湾水华生消的关键因素。     

三峡水库香溪河库湾春季水华期间悬浮物动态

在三峡水库香溪河库湾春季藻类水华期间开展了水体悬浮物动态研究.调查结果表明：总悬浮物浓度的中位数是6.80 mg·L^-1, 波动范围是0.66～134.92 mg·L^-1,从河口到库尾入库点呈现逐渐递增的趋势;无机悬浮物空间格局与总悬浮物基本相似,而有机悬浮物空间格局与总悬浮物差异较大,与叶绿素a较为相似.回归分析表明：库湾中部水域叶绿素a与总悬浮物、有机悬浮物均有显著的线性关系,分别解释了总悬浮物、有机悬浮物总变异的66.7%～96.7% 和 58.9%～85.5%;在库湾两端（河口与库尾）叶绿素a与悬浮物参数均没有显著的线性关系.在库湾中部水域,有机悬浮物比无机悬浮物更能解释总悬浮物的变异;在库湾两端,无机悬浮物比有机悬浮物更能解释总悬浮物的变异.这意味着库湾中间水域总悬浮物的动态主要受有机悬浮物内源性生产的影响,而河口或库尾总悬浮物的动态主要受外源性的无机悬浮颗粒物输入的影响.     

香溪河河流连续统特征研究

以香溪河附石藻类密度、藻类叶绿素a浓度、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数及生态系统初级生产力随河流级别的变化为例探索该河流的连续统特征。结果表明,附石藻类密度、藻类叶绿素a浓度和Shannon-Wiener多样性指数总体上都有随着河流级别增加而增加的趋势,但在1～3级河段之间这种趋势并不明显,甚至出现了逆转。河流初级生产力也有随河流级别增加而增加的趋势,并在第4级河流达到最大,随后有所下降。在全水系范围内河流初级生产力(P)与群落呼吸(R)比值P／R均大于1,说明香溪河是一条以自养生产为主的河流。所研究的特征并不完全与连续统概念的预测相一致,表明河流已经受到了一定程度的人为干扰。     

豚草叶片和果实气体交换特性与11种土壤重金属相关性

对10个样地中Cu、Pb、Zn、Mn、Cr、Co、Ni、Cd、As、Sb和 Hg 11种土壤重金属含量及样地内豚草叶片和果实气体交换特性进行测定.结果表明,样地内豚草叶片的净光合速率在1.88～9.41 μmol·m^-2·s^-1,而果实的净光合速率最高可达2.81 μmol·m^-2·s^-1.叶片的呼吸速率、气孔导度、光合速率和水分利用效率的平均值分别为1.81 μmol·m^-2·s^-1、75.7 mmol·m^-2·s^-1、6.05 μmol·m^-2·s^-1和4.72 μmol·mmol^-1,分别是果实的5.26、0.64、1.31和1.69倍,说明非同化器官幼嫩果实具有与叶片相当,甚至更强的呼吸、光合能力和水分利用效率;研究地点重金属Ni达到轻微污染水平,其它重金属含量都接近或者显著低于重金属污染的阈值.相关分析和多元回归分析显示,大部分土壤重金属（如Cu、Pb、Zn、Cd、As、Sb和Hg）含量的高低对豚草气体交换特性没有显著影响,仅部分重金属含量与豚草的叶片、果实气体交换特性密切相关,如Ni和Cr对豚草叶片、果实的气孔导度及水分利用效率显著相关;Cr与豚草叶片饱和光合速率显著相关;而As与豚草果实的气孔导度显著相关.表明大部分土壤重金属对叶片和球果的气体交换没有直接影响,而Ni、Cr和As可以在轻微污染甚至没有达到污染水平时影响豚草的气体交换特性.     

不同小麦品种对UV-B辐射增强响应的生理特性差异

研究了大田条件下模拟增强UV-B辐射（500 KJ·m^-2,相当于昆明地区臭氧层减少20%）对10个小麦品种生理指标的影响以及小麦对UV B辐射响应的种内差异.结果表明,10个供试小麦品种中有6个品种的叶绿素含量显著下降,叶绿素a降低的程度大于叶绿素b,从而导致叶绿素a/b的比率下降.UV-B对小麦叶片内MDA和类黄酮的影响也具有种内差异,有5个品种的MDA含量显著上升, 2个品种的MDA含量显著下降;4个品种的类黄酮含量显著增加,2个品种的类黄酮含量显著减少.叶绿素和类黄酮含量变化与MDA含量均呈显著负相关关系,类黄酮与小麦UV-B抗性之间存在密切联系.     

Epilithic bacteria in an acid and a calcareous headstream

SUMMARY. 1. Environmental variables and epilithic bacteria on small stones were monitored during summer and winter in Burbage Brook and the River Lathkill, two headstreams in the Derbyshire Peak District.
2. Burbage Brook was usually near-neutral in summer, but acid in winter; the River Lathkill was circumneutral throughout the year.
3. In summer, epilithic bacteria showed few between-stream differences. In winter, however, total bacteria, colony-forming units, per cent chromogenic colony-forming units, per cent viable bacteria, V_max for glucose mineralization and V_max/bacterium were all significantly less in the acid Burbage Brook.
4. Inhibition of epilithic bacteria in Burbage Brook was also observed when pH fell to a low level during a summer spate.
5. Multiple-regression analysis confirmed that epilithic bacteria were less successful at low pH but also suggested that pH was not the only environmental variable to influence epilithic bacteria. Especially notable were positive relationships with density of epilithic chlorophyll a and temperature in Burbage Brook and with chlorophyll a in the River Lathkill.     

The influence of floodplain habitat on the quantity and quality of riverine phytoplankton carbon produced during the flood season in San Francisco Estuary

Primary productivity, community respiration, chlorophyll a concentration, phytoplankton species composition, and environmental factors were compared in the Yolo Bypass floodplain and adjacent Sacramento River in order to determine if passage of Sacramento River through floodplain habitat enhanced the quantity and quality of phytoplankton carbon available to the aquatic food web and how primary productivity and phytoplankton species composition in these habitats were affected by environmental conditions during the flood season. Greater net primary productivity of Sacramento River water in the floodplain than the main river channel was associated with more frequent autotrophy and a higher P:R ratio, chlorophyll a concentration, and phytoplankton growth efficiency (α^B). Total irradiance and water temperature in the euphotic zone were positively correlated with net primary productivity in winter and early spring but negatively correlated with net primary productivity in the late spring and early summer in the floodplain. In contrast, net primary productivity was correlated with chlorophyll a concentration and streamflow in the Sacramento River. The flood pulse cycle was important for floodplain production because it facilitated the accumulation of chlorophyll a and wide diameter diatom and green algal cells during the drain phase. High chlorophyll a concentration and diatom and green algal biomass enabled the floodplain to export 14–37% of the combined floodplain plus river load of total, diatom and green algal biomass and wide diameter cells to the estuary downstream, even though it had only 3% of the river streamflow. The study suggested the quantity and quality of riverine phytoplankton biomass available to the aquatic food web could be enhanced by passing river water through a floodplain during the flood season.     

Epilithic Algae Distribution Along a Chemical Gradient in a Naturally Acidic River, Río Agrio (Patagonia, Argentina)

The epilithic algae distribution along a pH gradient and the relationship between the chemical gradient and biomass development were studied in Río Agrio, a naturally acidic river located in Patagonia (Argentina). The epilithic community was monitored during the summer of three consecutive years in sites located above and below the entrance of tributaries. The epilithic community showed differences between sites based on the chemical composition of the water and the precipitates that appear on the streambed of the river. The lowest biomass, diversity, and number of species were found at the most extreme part of the river in terms of pH (ca. 2) and element concentrations. Euglena mutabilis was the dominant species in this section of the river. As pH increased (ca. 3), the community changed to be dominated by filamentous green algae (Ulothrix spp., Mougeotia sp., Klebsormidium sp.) showing luxuriant growths in terms of biomass. With the inflow of a neutral tributary, the pH of Río Agrio increased above 3, and the precipitates of orange-red iron hydroxides appeared. The algal community was not affected by these precipitates or the low P concentrations, along the next 30 km of river downstream from this site. The apparent physical stress that the precipitates impose on algae is in fact a dynamic reservoir of P because diel cycle of Fe could be promoting precipitation and redissolution processes that binds and releases P from these precipitates. Where the pH increased above 6, precipitates of aluminum hydroxides appeared. At this site, the epilithic biomass and density decreased, some algae species changed, but the diversity and the number of species in general remained consistent with the upstream values. The physical stress of the Al precipitates on the algae is added to the chemical stress that represents the sequestering of P in these precipitates that are not redissolved, resulting P a limiting nutrient for algae growth.     

Réponses et stratégies d'adaptation des communautés algales épilithiques à différents régimes hydrologiques

Responses of epilithic algal communities were studied in a regulated river presenting two different hydrological regimes. Upstream of the Escale reservoir, the hydrological regime is characterized by a flow compensation with discharge continuous release responsible for the most significant disturbances occurring in the regulated River Durance. Downstream of this reservoir, the river presents a stable and low compensation flow. The analysis of the epilithic algal communities submitted to contrasting flow regimes has shown responses at different levels: a) at the level of the whole community, a global response by changes in species richness and abundance, as well as in community structure; b) at the level of the particular taxonomic groups, such as, for instance, a more important development of filamentous green algae, observed in the downstream reach; c) at the species level: the acquisition, by some diatoms, of an architectural type adapted to the flow regime.     

COMMUNITY DYNAMICS AND METABOLISM OF BENTHIC ALGAE COLONIZING WOOD AND ROCK SUBSTRATA IN A FOREST STREAM

Colonization dynamics and metabolism of algal communities on wood (small pieces of Douglas fir) and artificial rock (tiles) substrata were investigated in an open reach in Mack Creek, Cascade Mountain Range, Oregon, for 42 days. Chlorophyll a concentration was not significantly different between the two algal communities (ANOVA, P = 0.119). Even though differences in cell densities were not significantly different between the two algal communities (ANOVA, P = 0.063), biovolume and diversity were greater in epixylic than in epilithic communities (ANOVA, P = 0.011 and 0.002, respectively). The same algal taxa occurred on both substrata, but some of them (e.g. Ceratoneis arcus Grun., Cymbella minuta Hilse ex Rabh., Zygnema sp.) were more numerous on wood, whereas a few others preferred tiles (e.g. Achnanthes lanceolata (Bréb.) Grun.). Scanning electron microscopy revealed a much higher surface roughness on wood, which likely led to a patchy distribution of the algae and the development of stalked diatom species. However, adnate species adapted much better to the mainly flat surfaces of tiles. Net community primary productivity (NCPP) measured in 42-day-old substrata was moderate on tiles but negative on wood. Community respiration (CR) was significantly higher on wood than on tiles. Epixylic algal communities exhibited greater nitrogen demand than epilithic communities after ammonium addition. NCPP shifted to positive values on wood but did not increase on tiles. Despite metabolic differences, the variations between the two communities are more closely related to the physical characteristics of the substrata and the attachment abilities of the algal taxa.     

长江口冬季和春季浮游植物的粒级生物量

根据2005年2月28日—3月10日和5月30日—6月4日在长江口及其邻近水域进行的多学科综合外业调查,报道了冬季和春季浮游植物粒级生物量的空间分布和组成特征,并探讨了影响浮游植物粒级生物量的环境因子.结果表明：冬季长江口及其邻近水域表层叶绿素a平均浓度为1.28 mg·m^-3,高值区集中在口门附近;小粒径浮游植物（<20 μm）对浮游植物生物量的贡献率为66.7%,但在冲淡水区大粒径浮游植物（>20 μm）占据优势.春季长江口及其邻近水域表层叶绿素a浓度大幅增加,口门内、外的平均值分别为0.67和6.03 mg·m^-3,122.5°—123.0° E间水域因水华爆发出现显著的叶绿素a高值区;小粒径浮游植物对浮游植物生物量的贡献高达83.5%,其优势在水华区尤为明显.典型站位浮游植物粒级生物量的垂向分布显示,2种粒径浮游植物叶绿素a浓度的差异随水深增加而减小,至底层二者浓度相当.根据所获的环境因子资料,盐度和营养盐是影响长江口及其邻近水域浮游植物粒级生物量分布和组成的重要环境因子.     

Seasonal changes in composition and biomass of epilithic algal floras of a chalk stream and a soft water stream with estimates of production

Microscopic epilithic algae in the River Itchen at Otterbourne near Southampton and in the Ober Water in the New Forest were studied during 1984 and 1985. The River Itchen rises from chalk springs and has a steady pH near 8.2 and a mean alkalinity of 236 mg HCO₃ 1^–1; at the study site the river is about 16 m wide and 20 cm deep, with a mean flow rate of 0.33 m s^–1 and a discharge ranging through the year between 0.34 and 2.46 m³ s^–1. The Ober Water, which drains sands and gravels, has a pH between 6.9 and 7.2 and a mean alkalinity of about 50 mg HCO₃ 1^–1; at the study site it is about 6 m wide, with a mean flow rate of 0.27 m s^–1 and a discharge ranging through the year between 0.08 and 1.0 m³ s^–1.Epilithic algae removed from the pebbles that form the major part of the beds of both streams show seasonal changes in abundance and composition. Diatoms peaked in April/May and dominate the epilithic flora in both streams, comprising 70–95% of all algal cells; highest numbers of chlorophytes occurred in summer and cyanophytes increased in autumn. The species composition of the epilithic flora in the two streams was different, as was the population density; algal cell numbers ranged between 500 and 7000 cells mm^–2 of stream floor in the River Itchen and between 8 and 320 cells mm^–2 of stream floor in the Ober Water. The chlorophyll a content of epilithic algae in the River Itchen ranged between 115 and 415 mg m^–2 of stream floor, representing an annual mean biomass of about 8 g m^–2, whereas in the Ober Water a chlorophyll a content of 2.2 to 44 mg m^–2 of stream floor was found, representing an annual mean biomass of about 1 g m^–2. Cautious estimates of the annual production of epilithic algae in these streams suggest a value of about 600 g organic dry weight m^–2 in the River Itchen and about 75 g m^–2 in the Ober Water.
