Average height of the free population in the United States born in the mid-1830s began to decline despite growing per capita incomes. Explanations for this "antebellum puzzle" revolve around a possibly deteriorating disease environment promoted by urban agglomeration and increases in the relative price of protein-rich foods. However, several groups were immune to the effect, including members of the middle class, whose income was high enough, and increased enough to overcome the adverse developments and maintain their nutritional status. Although at the opposite end of the social spectrum, the height of male slaves also increased, as it was in their owners' interest to raise their slaves' food allotments. The height of Tennessee convicts, analyzed in this article, also increased in the late-1830s, being the third exception to the "antebellum puzzle." Mid-19th century Tennessee was integrated into interstate commerce in cotton and tobacco and experienced considerable movement of people who would have brought with them diseases from elsewhere, hence, it would have been integrated into the US disease pool, and the fact that heights did not decline in the 1830s is therefore an indication that the antebellum puzzle cannot be explained exclusively by the spread of diseases. Yet, Tennessee's economy was quite different to that of the rest of the country. Although it did export live swine to the South, these exports did not increase during the antebellum decades. Hence, Tennessee remained self-sufficient in pork, and consumption of pork did not decline. Thus, the evidence presented here is consistent with the economic interpretation of the "antebellum puzzle": self-sufficiency in protein production protected even the members of the lower-classes of Tennessee from the negative externalities associated with the onset of industrialization. 相似文献

内蒙古半干旱生态脆弱矿区生态修复耦合机理与产业模式 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
近年,煤炭开采带动矿区经济发展的同时也造成了严重的生态环境问题。由此产生生态修复和土地复垦产业延伸的生态环境治理和矿区产业调整优化方面研究热点,二者形成的耦合系统可在恢复受损土地的同时,以治理和循环生产为契机延伸产业链。受损地形重塑及边开采边恢复技术开发及应用形成安全稳定地形条件是前提,其次是土壤的恢复重构,在当地条件下迅速恢复具备良好理化性质,供植被和经济能源作物生长和景观格局构建,最终形成修复产业和生态产业的价值创造平台。根据耦合系统的工艺特点,每年内蒙矿区利用该耦合系统以矿区受损土地修复进行循环生产生态修复产品的潜力约21915.51万吨和经济能源作物的潜力约21.15万t。 相似文献

针对沿海增养殖业对海洋生态的影响,对中国南部沿海2个增养殖业发达区——南澳岛深澳湾"海上渔村"和赤潮灾区饶平柘林湾进行了实地考察和取样分析.考察发现,目前中国南部沿海增养殖业普遍存在技术落后、缺乏科学技术指导和统一管理等问题, 对海洋生态造成了极大的危害;通过海水水质测定实验,发现这2个养殖区水样的平均含氮量较高(2.154 mg/L),氮磷质量比较高(22),处于富营养化状态;浮游植物平均密度较高(1 908.6个/mL),个体含叶绿素a量较低(1.74×10-6 mg/个),出现生态衰退现象. 相似文献

Passport data for Mexico’s Guanajuato State were used to locate the sites where maize was collected in the 1940s and 1950s
in an effort to document and conserve diversity. A map presenting survey points illustrates that collections have occurred
repeatedly in the same locations. Observations of these locations reveal that urbanization and industrialization, not high
yielding varieties, are displacing traditional varieties. Non-linear principal components analysis was used to assess associations
between variables in areas where maize persists. Landraces appear to be associated with mountains and mesas, mixed cropping,
little or no access to irrigation and areas classified as having low agricultural capacity; conversely, landraces have more
commonly been replaced in areas of high agricultural capacity. The areas of high agriculture capacity, located in the riparian
areas and plains, also have been the easiest to develop for urban and industrial use. Increasingly high rates of urbanization
and development in areas of high agriculture capacity will impede the conservation of crop diversity in these areas. 相似文献

Marek’s disease virus (MDV), a commercially important disease of poultry, has become substantially more virulent over the last 60 years. This evolution was presumably a consequence of changes in virus ecology associated with the intensification of the poultry industry. Here, we assess whether vaccination or reduced host life span could have generated natural selection, which favored more virulent strains. Using previously published experimental data, we estimated viral fitness under a range of cohort durations and vaccine treatments on broiler farms. We found that viral fitness maximized at intermediate virulence, as a result of a trade‐off between virulence and transmission previously reported. Our results suggest that vaccination, acting on this trade‐off, could have led to the evolution of increased virulence. By keeping the host alive, vaccination prolongs infectious periods of virulent strains. Improvements in host genetics and nutrition, which reduced broiler life spans below 50 days, could have also increased the virulence of the circulating MDV strains because shortened cohort duration reduces the impact of host death on viral fitness. These results illustrate the dramatic impact anthropogenic change can potentially have on pathogen virulence. 相似文献

This study attempts to address the issue of relative living standards in Portuguese medieval and early 20th century periods. Since the growth of children provides a good measure of environmental quality for the overall population, the skeletal growth profiles of medieval Leiria and early 20th century Lisbon were compared. Results show that growth in femur length of medieval children did not differ significantly from that of early 20th century children, but after puberty medieval adolescents seem to have recovered, as they have significantly longer femora as adults. This is suggestive of greater potential for catch-up growth in medieval adolescents. We suggest that this results from distinct child labor practices, which impact differentially on the growth of Leiria and Lisbon adolescents. Work for medieval children and adolescents were related to family activities, and care and attention were provided by family members. Conversely, in early 20th century Lisbon children were more often sent to factories at around 12 years of age as an extra source of family income, where they were exploited for their labor. Since medieval and early 20th century children were stunted at an early age, greater potential for catch-up growth in medieval adolescents results from exhausting work being added to modern adolescent's burdens of disease and poor diet, when they entered the labor market. Although early 20th century Lisbon did not differ in overall unfavorable living conditions from medieval Leiria, after puberty different child labor practices may have placed modern adolescents at greater risk of undernutrition and poor growth. 相似文献
