哈拉哈河上游的鱼类区系和资源现状

哈拉哈河上游的鱼类采集到１４种和亚种,分水于４目６科,其中鲤科８种,占５７．１％。区系组成分归５个区系类群,其中属于全北区的北方山地,北方平原和北极淡水类群鱼类有１０种,占７１．４％,这与该河系具有适于冷水性鱼类栖存的生态条件密切相关。     

A PRELIMINARY LIMNOLOGICAL STUDY OF BUFFELSPOORT DAM AND ITS CATCHMENT

SUMMARY

A limnological survey of the Buffelspoort Dam and its catchment between 1973 and 1975 showed that the water of the area contained extremely low concentrations of dissolved minerals and that there was no point source of nutrient supply to the dam. The anion and cation dominance in the catchment water may be summarized as HCO3 >Cl >SO₄NO₃ and Na⁺ >Mg⁺⁺ >Ca⁺⁺ >K⁺, respectively, and this water may be classified as soft bicarbonate water. The impoundment was warm monomictic and had an extensive anaerobic hypolimnion during summer stratification. Changes in water transparency were related to the seasonal fluctuation in water content and the hydrological cycle. Nutrient concentrations in the dam displayed seasonal trends which were related to stratification, hydrological events and phytoplankton activity. On the basis of its nutrient content and chlorophyll a concentrations the impoundment can be classified as mesotrophic. The further development of holiday resorts in the catchment poses a cutrophication hazard, especially if expansion results in the installation of sewage treatment plants.     

岷江上游植被冠层降水截留的空间模拟

 通过对岷江上游实地踏查和定位观测研究,结合MODIS遥感数据,利用“3S”技术对岷江上游植被冠层降水截留进行了空间模拟。研究结果表明：岷江上游植被叶面积指数（LAI）与增强性植被指数（EVI）以二项式关系拟合效果较好。由于归一化植被指数（NDVI）存在的饱和问题,研究采用EVI反演LAI,统计结果表明：岷江上游LAI值在0～2之间的占28.57%,在2～4.5之间的占63.06%,大于4.5的占8.37%,其中LAI最大值为7.394;从冠层最大降水截留模拟结果来看: 植被较好的地区,如卧龙、米亚罗的植被冠层最大降水截留量较大,而干旱河谷、上游高山草甸等地的植被冠层最大降水截留量相对较低;附加冠层降水截留与降雨量呈线性相关,模型验证时以此为基础,模型模拟的结果较为理想。     

白龙江上游地区森林植物群落物种多样性的研究

 白龙江上游地区属长江防护林工程重点地区之一。根据36个样地的调查资料,分析了该地区森林植物群落物种多样性的特征：群落内各层物种丰富度指数的大小顺序为“灌木层>草本层>乔木层”;均匀度指数变化比较复杂,在杜鹃巴山冷杉（Rhododendron fastigiatum-Abies fargesii）林中为“草本层>灌木层>乔木层”,在苔藓巴山冷杉林中为“乔木层>灌木层>草本层”,其余群落中为“灌木层>草本层>乔木层”;多样性指数的大小顺序为“乔木层<灌木层和草本层”,而灌木层与草本层的多样性指数随林分郁闭度变化而变化,在郁闭度30%的杜鹃巴山冷杉林中,草本层大于灌木层,在郁闭度47%的箭竹巴山冷杉林中,草本层和灌木层相当,在郁闭度55%以上的各个群落内,灌木层大于草本层。同一海拔不同坡向群落的物种多样性表现为分布于阳坡的油松（Pinus tabulaeformis）林大于分布于阴坡的草类云杉（Picea asperata）林。物种多样性沿海拔梯度的变化表现为随海拔升高先降低后增加,从海拔2 400 m的栎类阔叶林,2 600 m的草类云杉林,2 800 m的箭竹(Sinarundinaria nitida)巴山冷杉林,到3 000 m的苔藓巴山冷杉林和3 200 m的杜鹃巴山冷杉林,物种多样性依次下降,到海拔3 400 m的高山杜鹃（Rhododendron fastigiatum）灌丛,物种多样性增加。物种多样性在紫果云杉(Picea purpurea)林的演替系列中表现为随群落演替发展而增加,后降低,在针阔混交林阶段达到最大。     

长江中、上游铜鱼的生长特性

铜鱼是长江中上游的重要经济鱼类和天然捕捞对象,1990—1995年作者利用在长江中上游收集的1030尾标本,对铜鱼的生长特性进行了研究。其体重和体长的关系为W=0.005413L~(3.113)(r=0.9982),生长方程为L_t=60.0229[1-e~(-0.2325(t 0.6108))];W_t=3261.9137[1-e~(-0.2325(t 0.6108))]~(3.113),体重生长拐点t=4.2龄,相应的体长41.05cm、体重973.03g。按生长指标值分析,阶段生长可明显地划分为两个时期,即4龄前的生长迅速期和4龄后的生长减缓期。因此,天然渔业的捕捞规格应控制在约1000g以上的个体,目前在葛洲坝以下的中游江段主要捕捞幼鱼的现状应该改变。

SHORT-TERM IMPACTS OF FORMULATIONS OF BACILLUS THURINGIENSIS VAR. ISRAELENSIS DE BARJAC AND THE ORGANOPHOSPHATE TEMEPHOS,USED IN BLACKFLY (DIPTERA: SIMULIIDAE) CONTROL,ON RHEOPHILIC BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATES IN THE MIDDLE ORANGE RIVER,SOUTH AFRICA

Summary

The impacts of larvicides used in the control of blackflies (Diptera: Simuliidae) on macroinvertebrates in the stones-in-current biotope were assessed during 8 field trials in the middle Orange River, South Africa. Two Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (B.t.i.) products (Vectobac^R 12AS and Teknar^R HP-D) and the organophosphate temephos (Abate^R 200EC) were applied at recommended and high dosages to simulate “operational” and “worst-possible” scenario's respectively. Mortality was evaluated either by direct counting of invertebrates on stones before and after application, or by ranking invertebrates on a 4-point relative abundance scale before and after application. In addition, the re-appearance of benthic invertebrate population densities after temephos application was examined.

At the recommended dosage (1.2 ppm/10 min), B.t.i. significantly reduced blackfly larval numbers (P<0.001) and those of the chironomid Rheotanytarsus fuscus Freeman (P<0.05). At high dosage (20 ppm/10 min), numbers of the filter-feeding mayfly Tricorythus discolor (Burmeister) (P<0.01) and the chironomid Cardiocladius sp. (P<0.05) were also significantly reduced. No Simulium predators were directly affected by B.t.i., but there were indications of food shortage amongst Hydropsychidae and Hirudinea.

Temephos caused significant reductions in the relative abundance of 5 taxa at 0.05 ppm, 3 to 6 taxa at 0.1 ppm, and 9 taxa at 1.0 ppm (P<0.05). “Non-target” organisms which were most affected included the chironomid R. fuscus, the mayflies Baetis glaucus Agnew and Choroterpes elegans Barnard, and the caddisflies Cheumatopsyche thomasseti Ulmer and Amphipsyche scottae Kimmins. The mayfly T. discolor was tolerant of temephos, even at high dosage (1.0 ppm/10 min). In winter, most taxa re-appeared within 19 days, and population densities were back to pre-treatment levels within 35 days.

It is concluded that good reduction of blackfly populations may be obtained with minimal direct impact on the “non-target” fauna, provided recommended dosages of temephos are not exceeded. Overdosing with temephos may result in high mortality of “non-target” organisms, including blackfly predators, and should be avoided.     

IMPACTS OF REPEATED APPLICATIONS OF BACILLUS THURINGIENSIS VAR. ISRAELENSIS DE BARJAC AND TEMEPHOS,USED IN BLACKFLY (DIPTERA: SIMULIIDAE) CONTROL,ON MACROINVERTEBRATES IN THE MIDDLE ORANGE RIVER,SOUTH AFRICA

Summary

The impacts of five consecutive treatments of blackfly larvicides on macroinvertebrates in the middle Orange River were assessed. The abundance of the midge Xenochironomus sp. and the limpet Burnupia sp. was lower at sites treated with Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (B.t.i.) compared to control sites (P<0.05). There was no medium-term impact on the abundance of two B.t.i.-sensitive taxa: Simulium spp. and the midge Rheotanytarsus fuscus. Repeated applications of the organophosphate temephos (Abate^R 200EC) significantly reduced the abundance of 25% of the invertebrate taxa in the stones-in-current biotope (P<0.1). The most affected taxa were R. fuscus, certain Baetis spp. mayflies and Coenagrionidae damselflies. Ordination of the species/sample matrix using detrended correspondence analysis showed that changes in invertebrate abundance and composition caused by either larvicide were well within the range of natural seasonal and spatial variation. However, the control programme may be detrimental to non-pest blackfly species, particularly the South African endemic Simulium gariepense, which may be endangered because of river regulation. It is concluded that the medium-term impacts of operational dosages of B.t.i. and temephos are safe provided that the recommended dosages of temephos are adhered to, and provided certain sections of river are left untreated as refugia for sensitive taxa.     

DIATOMS AS INDICATORS OF WATER QUALITY IN THE UPPER HENNOPS RIVER (Transvaal,South Africa)

SUMMARY

The water quality of the upper Hennops River was determined by applying the method of Lange-Bertalot (1978; 1979), which is based on groups of diatom species with similar tolerances towards pollution. A definite improvement in the water quality was indicated between the upper reaches of the river, which receives secondary treated sewage effluent discharges, and Rietvlei Dam, some 25 km downstream. According to the water quality classification of Lange-Bertalot, this represented an improvement from class III – IV (α-meso- to polysaprobic) to class II – III (α- to β-mesosaprobic). These results were in general agreement with chemical analyses, which suggests that Lange-Bertalot's method for classifying the quality of running waters can be adapted, to South African conditions. The pollution tolerances of some species not included in Lange-bertalot's classification are suggested.

三峡大坝截流前后长江中上游江段水化学特性的初步调查

1997-1998年,在三峡大坝截流前后,对长江中上游地区十多个江段及若干个支流进行了多次的水质监测分析。结果表明:长江中上游水资源丰富,但污染较严重。从多项数据指标分析结果和多项资料表明,目前污染源主要为沿江工业和城市生活污水。长江干流污染远高于支流(嘉陵江除外).而大江截流对长江中上游的水质近期影响较小,可以忽略不计。

EFFECTS OF SUSPENDED SEDIMENT ON BIOMASS AND CELL MORPHOLOGY OF CLADOPHORA GLOMERATA (CHLOROPHYTA) IN THE COLORADO RIVER, ARIZONA

This study assessed changes in biomass, filament length, and cell morphology in Cladophora glomerata (L.) Kütz. along a suspended sediment gradient in the Colorado River below Glen Canyon Dam, Arizona. Suspended sediments ranged from 2.0 mg·L⁻¹ at Lees Ferry (Rkm 0.8) to 4.2 mg·L⁻¹ at Gorilla Island (Rkm 352). There was a 74% decrease in Cladophora biomass along the river transect through Grand Canyon National Park and a significant decrease in filament and cell length, but cell width increased. Similar changes in cell morphology occurred after 19 days when C. glomerata was transplanted from a low suspended sediment site (2.0 mg·L⁻¹) at Lees Ferry to a habitat with high suspended sediments (≥20.0 mg·L⁻¹). Cell length increased and cell width decreased when plants were transplanted back to the low suspended sediment habitat for 24 days. In situ studies with reduced light in the absence of suspended sediments showed no change in cell morphology. These in situ experiments imply that changes in cell morphology by C. glomerata in waters with high suspended sediments are adjustments in structural integrity to accommodate the abrasive force of suspended particles. Our study suggests that cell dimensions in Cladophora might be too plastic under varying environmental conditions to be used in taxonomic determinations.
