随着社会化进程的加快,地处西北内陆的甘肃省正面临日益严峻的水资源短缺危机,社会经济发展受到一定程度的制约,水生态环境也呈现出恶化的趋势。水足迹是近年来提出的衡量人类活动对于水生态系统影响的指标,能够帮助决策者制定水资源管理及保护的政策,从而实现地区水资源的可持续利用。运用单区域投入产出方法计算并分析了甘肃省1997、2002和2007年第一产业、第二产业和第三产业部门的虚拟水强度、水足迹以及虚拟水贸易情况。结果显示:(1)甘肃省第一产业的虚拟水强度最高,但呈现出逐年下降的趋势,水足迹也因此有所下降;(2)虚拟水贸易方面,甘肃省以虚拟水净出口为主,尤其是第一产业,每年虚拟水净出口量约全省总水资源量的10%。建议甘肃省继续巩固已有的节水成果,调整产业结构,大力发展节水型产业和高新技术产业。同时建议适当调整贸易格局,合理控制虚拟水出口,以缓解当地水资源短缺危机,保障地区水安全与生态安全。     

Microwave dielectric study on hydration of moist collagen

Two dielectric relaxation peaks were found in moist collagen by the time domain reflectometry. The low-frequency peak around 100 MHz moves little as the water content is varied. Its relaxation strength depends on the content and vanishes for completely dried collagen. This process is concluded to be due to water molecules strongly bound to the tropocollagen. Amount of the bound water is estimated as 0.12 g water/g collagen. Twenty-one water molecules are bound to one repeat of the triple helix. The existence of stringlike water chains is suggested. If the water content is less than 0.5 g water/g collagen, the high frequency peak locates between those of bound and bulk water. Water among the tropo-collagen is weakly bound to the collagen. In the higher region it does not change much with the content, being close to that of bulk water. The bulk water appears in this region.

Knot formation reduces water exchange by adult males of the hairworm,Paragordius varius (Nematomorpha: Gordioidea)

To examine how aggregation by hairworms may enhance survival in freshwater, we determined water balance characteristics of Paragordius varius in groups of different sizes. P. varius is hyperosmotic resulting in high body water content and functions down to one-half of water stores. Absence of a critical transition temperature implies a watertight, low-porosity cuticle. Aggregated worms lose water slowly, as a physiological consequence of reduced motor activity. The water balance strategy shifts from a reliance on high dehydration tolerance for isolated individuals, affording high water loss rates, to suppressed activation energy when aggregated, wherein blocking water gain is important when water loss is slower. Low water loss rate derives from stillness and aggregating that facilitate mating or anti-predator defense, rather than as a behavior to regulate water loss. Presence of hairworms in streams is an indicator of high-quality water that is necessary to maintain water balance.

A critique on the water-scarcity weighted water footprint in LCA

The water footprint (WF) has been developed within the water resources research community as a volumetric measure of freshwater appropriation. The concept is used to assess water use along supply chains, sustainability of water use within river basins, efficiency of water use, equitability of water allocation and dependency on water in the supply chain. With the purpose of integrating the WF in life cycle assessment of products, LCA scholars have proposed to weight the original volumetric WF by the water scarcity in the catchment where the WF is located, thus obtaining a water-scarcity weighted WF that reflects the potential local environmental impact of water consumption. This paper provides an elaborate critique on this proposal. The main points are: (1) counting litres of water use differently based on the level of local water scarcity obscures the actual debate about water scarcity, which is about allocating water resources to competing uses and depletion at a global scale; (2) the neglect of green water consumption ignores the fact that green water is scarce as well; (3) since water scarcity in a catchment increases with growing overall water consumption in the catchment, multiplication of the consumptive water use of a specific process or activity with water scarcity implies that the resultant weighted WF of a process or activity will be affected by the WFs of other processes or activities, which cannot be the purpose of an environmental performance indicator; (4) the LCA treatment of the WF is inconsistent with how other environmental footprints are defined; and (5) the Water Stress Index, the most cited water scarcity metric in the LCA community, lacks meaningful physical interpretation. It is proposed to incorporate the topic of freshwater scarcity in LCA as a “natural resource depletion” category, considering depletion from a global perspective. Since global freshwater demand is growing while global freshwater availability is limited, it is key to measure the comparative claim of different products on the globe's limited accessible and usable freshwater flows.     

基于生态水文学原理的湖泊最小生态需水量计算

近几十年来,由于人类活动的加剧以及全球气候的变化,湖泊普遍出现了萎缩、水位下降、水量锐减、湖水盐化、水质污染、富营养化、甚至干涸消亡等状况。确保湖泊生态系统必需的最小水量是解决可能出现的湖泊严重水资源和生态系统危机的区域问题之一。从生态水文学原理出发,对湖泊最小生态需水量的概念进行了探讨,并提出了计算最小生态需水量的3种方法:1曲线相关法;2功能法;3最低生态水位法。在最低生态水位法中,其方法有最低年平均水位法和年保证率设定法。一旦湖泊最小生态需水量得以确定,将为水资源管理部门的水资源合理配置和湖泊管理提供综合性、权威性及可操作性决策依据,为退化湖泊生态系统的恢复与重建提供科学基础。     

On the thermal stability of DNA in solution of mixed solvents

The study of the changes in UV absorbance of DNA solutions in water/dioxane and water/ethylene glycol mixture at different concentrations shows that the thermal denaturation of DNA is sensitive to the electrical permittivity of the media and the water content. At relative low concentrations of co-solvent the dominant feature is the electrical permittivity. When water content is lower than a critical value, the electrical permittivity is no longer the determinant of the denaturation temperature but the partial volume fraction of water. The critical water content is about 0.69 partial volume fraction of water.

The vibrational spectrum of water in liquid alkanes.

The water wire hypothesis of hydrogen-ion transport in lipid bilayers has prompted a search for water aggregates in bulk hydrocarbons. The asymmetric stretching vibration of the water dissolved in n-decane and in a number of other alkanes and alkenes has been observed. The water band in the alkanes is very wide and fits to the results of a J-diffusion calculation for the water rotation. This implies that the water is freely rotating between collisions with the solvent and certainly not hydrogen bonded to anything. The existence of water aggregates is thus most unlikely. In contrast, water in an alkene is hydrogen bonded to the solvent molecules (although not to other water molecules) and shows an entirely different spectrum.     

The differential role of mechanisms for drought resistance in a Mediterranean evergreen shrub: a simulation approach

Plants have the ability to dampen the effects of variability in water resources. Various mechanisms contribute to these properties: reduction of leaf area, increased rooting depth and stomatal conductance. To evaluate the differential roles and interactions of these mechanisms, we have built a model and simulated flows of water in Mediterranean evergreen scrub. The essential concept of this model is that the water status of the canopy is governed by the water lost by transpiration, the availability of soil water and the hydraulic resistances to water flow in soil and plant. The amount of water supplied by the roots is related to changes in water potential between the soil and the leaf. The amount of water lost to the atmosphere is regulated by an interaction between atmospheric demand and canopy water potential. Water uptake by plant is assumed equal to plant water loss. Leaf area appears to affect largely the annual water balance. The critical leaf water potential required to reduce the maximum stomatal conductance by half has a dominant effect on annual leaf water potential. Reducing rooting depth induces a new functional equilibrium for the plant. This new equilibrium is reached by decreasing leaf area and the critical leaf water potential. Our results show the complexity of interactions of these mechanisms and highlight the importance of the coordination between them. Finally, we suggest a reconsideration of these mechanisms in a context of the survival and long-term persistence of the plant.     

Decomposition of protein experimental compressibility into intrinsic and hydration shell contributions

The experimental determination of protein compressibility reflects both the protein intrinsic compressibility and the difference between the compressibility of water in the protein hydration shell and bulk water. We use molecular dynamics simulations to explore the dependence of the isothermal compressibility of the hydration shell surrounding globular proteins on differential contributions from charged, polar, and apolar protein-water interfaces. The compressibility of water in the protein hydration shell is accounted for by a linear combination of contributions from charged, polar, and apolar solvent-accessible surfaces. The results provide a formula for the deconvolution of experimental data into intrinsic and hydration contributions when a protein of known structure is investigated. The physical basis for the model is the variation in water density shown by the surface-specific radial distribution functions of water molecules around globular proteins. The compressibility of water hydrating charged atoms is lower than bulk water compressibility, the compressibility of water hydrating apolar atoms is somewhat larger than bulk water compressibility, and the compressibility of water around polar atoms is about the same as the compressibility of bulk water. We also assess whether hydration water compressibility determined from small compound data can be used to estimate the compressibility of hydration water surrounding proteins. The results, based on an analysis from four dipeptide solutions, indicate that small compound data cannot be used directly to estimate the compressibility of hydration water surrounding proteins.

Metabolic processes account for the majority of the intracellular water in log-phase Escherichia coli cells as revealed by hydrogen isotopes

It is generally believed that water transport across biological membranes is essentially a near-instantaneous process, with water molecules diffusing directly across the membrane as well as through pores such as aquaporins. As a result of these processes by which water can equilibrate across a membrane, a common assumption is that intracellular water is isotopically indistinguishable from extracellular water. To test this assumption directly, we measured the hydrogen isotope ratio of intracellular water in Escherichia coli cells. Our results demonstrate that more than 50% of the intracellular water hydrogen atoms in log-phase E. coli cells are isotopically distinct from the growth medium water and that these isotopically distinct hydrogen atoms are derived from metabolic processes. As expected, the (2)H/(1)H isotope ratio of intracellular water from log-phase cells showed an appreciably larger contribution from metabolic water than did intracellular water from stationary-phase cells (53 +/- 12 and 23 +/- 5%, respectively). The (2)H/(1)H isotope ratio of intracellular water was also monitored indirectly by measuring the isotope ratio of fatty acids, metabolites that are known to incorporate hydrogen atoms from water during biosynthesis. Significantly, the difference in the isotopic composition of intracellular water from log- to stationary-phase E. coli cells was reflected in the hydrogen isotope ratio of individual fatty acids harvested at the two different times, indicating that the isotope ratio of metabolites can be used as an indirect probe of metabolic activity. Together, these results demonstrate that contrary to the common assumption that intracellular water is isotopically identical to extracellular water, these two pools of water can actually be quite distinct.     

Foliar water uptake: Processes,pathways, and integration into plant water budgets

Nearly all plant families, represented across most major biomes, absorb water directly through their leaves. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as foliar water uptake. Recent studies have suggested that foliar water uptake provides a significant water subsidy that can influence both plant water and carbon balance across multiple spatial and temporal scales. Despite this, our mechanistic understanding of when, where, how, and to what end water is absorbed through leaf surfaces remains limited. We first review the evidence for the biophysical conditions necessary for foliar water uptake to occur, focusing on the plant and atmospheric water potentials necessary to create a gradient for water flow. We then consider the different pathways for uptake, as well as the potential fates of the water once inside the leaf. Given that one fate of water from foliar uptake is to increase leaf water potentials and contribute to the demands of transpiration, we also provide a quantitative synthesis of observed rates of change in leaf water potential and total fluxes of water into the leaf. Finally, we identify critical research themes that should be addressed to effectively incorporate foliar water uptake into traditional frameworks of plant water movement.
