取样方式对喀斯特和非喀斯特混合分布区森林种—面积关系的影响

种—面积关系是生态学研究中的基本格局之一,是生物多样性保护实践和生物地理学研究的重要工具之一。不同区域最优种—面积关系模型的选择和取样调查方式对种—面积关系的影响目前仍未十分明确。广西北热带是喀斯特和非喀斯特混合分布的区域,生物多样性丰富,其中保护较好的有喀斯特区的弄岗国家级自然保护区和非喀斯特区的十万大山国家级自然保护区。依据典型性和代表性的原则,分别在两个保护区中建立典型群落的调查样地,对所有胸径大于2 cm的木本植物进行取样调查。为了明确该区域典型森林的优选模型,探讨取样方式对种—面积关系的影响,采用组合样方法建立对数模型、逻辑斯蒂克模型和幂函数模型,用赤池信息准则(AIC)检验模型的拟合优度,并用秩相关分析检验最小取样单元和起测胸径对不同模型的影响。结果表明:逻辑斯蒂克模型在两种区域均为优选模型,最小取样单元和起测胸径对种—面积关系的模型均有影响,但不同模型对取样方式变化的敏感性不一致;逻辑斯蒂克模型是一种较为稳健的模型,可用于描述广西北热带喀斯特区和非喀斯特区森林树种种—面积关系;在种—面积关系研究和模型的应用时,需要特别注意取样方式的影响。

Summer distribution of Red-legged Partridges Alectoris rufa in relation to water availability on Mediterranean farmland

The suggestion that the summer distribution of Red-legged Partridges Alectoris rufa in the Mediterranean region is determined by the availability of surface water was examined on the agricultural farm, Alto Alentejo, southern Portugal. Partridge coveys were surveyed between 15 July and 15 August in 1993 and 1994. Using a vector-based Geographic Information System, we assessed, for each covey location and for the locations of a double number of random points, the distance to the nearest water point, distance to field boundaries, distance to water lines and land use classes. Univariate comparisons were made between the two groups of locations, and three multivariate logistic models were fitted through forward stepwise selection to the 1993, 1994 and pooled data sets to estimate the probability of sighting partridge coveys in the study area. Distance to water was significantly lower for partridge locations than for random points in both years and was the only variable selected for all logistic models. Apart from water availability, Red-legged Partridge locations were also affected by land use and distance to field boundaries.     

植物空间分布格局中邻体距离的概率分布模型及参数估计

最近邻体法是一类有效的植物空间分布格局分析方法,邻体距离的概率分布模型用于描述邻体距离的统计特征,属于常用的最近邻体法之一。然而,聚集分布格局中邻体距离(个体到个体)的概率分布模型表达式复杂,参数估计的计算量大。根据该模型期望和方差的特性,提出了一种简化的参数估计方法,并利用遗传算法来实现参数优化,结果表明遗传算法可以有效地估计的该模型的两个参数。同时,利用该模型拟合了加拿大南温哥华岛3个寒温带树种的空间分布数据,结果显示:该概率分布模型可以很好地拟合美国花旗松(P.menziesii)和西部铁杉(T.heterophylla)的邻体距离分布,但由于西北红柏(T.plicata)存在高度聚集的团簇分布,拟合结果不理想;美国花旗松在样地中近似随机分布,空间聚集参数对空间尺度的依赖性不强,但西北红柏和西部铁杉空间聚集参数具有尺度依赖性,随邻体距离阶数增加而变大。最后,讨论了该模型以及参数估计方法的优势和限制。     

The use of the maharanobis and modified distances for the improvement of simulation of glutamic acid production

A modified simulation procedure based on a statistical approach was investigated. The procedure predicts the time course of fed-batch culture for glutamic acid production by a temperature-sensitive strain of Brevibacterium flavum. The statistical approach requires only a data base of state points obtained in experiments, and not perfect identification of fermentation models. The simulation procedure is based on regression analysis to estimate specific rate parameters of system equations using the data points selected with reference to the Euclid distance. It was modified in that the data selection procedure included the use of the Maharanobis distance as well as a modified distance defined in this study. Simulation results using the modified procedure allow reasonable prediction of the time course of fed-batch culture for glutamic acid compared to that involving the Euclid distance alone.     

Local fractal dimension based ECG arrhythmia classification

We propose a local fractal dimension based nearest neighbor classifier for ECG based classification of arrhythmia. Local fractal dimension (LFD) at each sample point of the ECG waveform is taken as the feature. A nearest neighbor algorithm in the feature space is used to find the class of the test ECG beat. The nearest neighbor is found based on the RR-interval-information-biased Euclidean distance, proposed in the current work. Based on the two algorithms used for estimating the LFD, two classification algorithms are validated in the current work, viz. variance based fractal dimension estimation based nearest neighbor classifier and power spectral density based fractal dimension estimation based nearest neighbor classifier. Their performances are evaluated based on various figures of merit. MIT-BIH (Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital) Arrhythmia dataset has been used to validate the algorithms. Along with showing good performance against all the figures of merit, the proposed algorithms also proved to be patient independent in the sense that the performance is good even when the test ECG signal is from a patient whose ECG is not present in the training ECG dataset.     

Quantitative determination of tryptophanyl and tyrosyl residues of proteins by second-derivative fluorescence spectroscopy

Second-derivative spectroscopy has been applied to the study of the fluorescence of aromatic amino acids. The spectral features of the second derivative emission spectra of free aromatic amino acids and proteins are described, the emission of each aromatic fluorophore being characterized by a particular minimum-maximum pair. An easy, accurate, and rapid method is proposed for the quantitative determination of tyrosine and tryptophan, based on the addition of small amounts of a standard solution to the samples followed by the measurement of the increase in the distance between a selected minimum and an adjacent maximum, in the second-derivative spectrum. For tyrosine determination, excitation wavelength was 275 nm, and the selected minimum-maximum (m,M) pair was (300; 330 nm), while an excitation of 300 nm and a minimum-maximum pair (357; 377 nm) were employed for the tryptophan determination. This method enables the tryptophan content of proteins to be determined directly, without the need for correction for the presence of tyrosine. The tyrosine content of proteins can also be determined at neutral pH, in the presence of both tryptophan and phenylalanine. The proposed method has also been applied to trypsin activation of frog epidermis tyrosinase.     

Resolution of Fluorescence Emission Spectra with Various Lifetime Components of D1/D2/Cyt b-559

PS Ⅱ reaction center D1/D2/Cyt b-559 purified from chloroplasts of spinach has four components of fluorescence decaying with lifetimes of 1.0 ns, 5.9 ns,24 ns,and 73 ns whose fractions to total fluorescence yield are 0. 05,0.34,0. 35 and 0.26 respectively. The fluorescence emission spectra of these lifetime components are closely overlapping, and only one peak is shown in steady state emission spectrum. Based on the hardware analysis of phase fluorometry,by selection of the detector phase angle,the emission from various components could be individually suppressed. If the 5.9 ns component was suppressed, the emission spectrum was red-shifted. On the contrary, the emission spectrum was blue-shifted when 73 ns component was suppressed. Based on the software analysis, the individual emission spectra were resolved with three lifetime components by measuring phase and modulation data at various wavelength. Compared with steady state spectrum,the emission maximum wavelength of 5.9 ns component was blue-shifted from 68nm to 680 nm,but those of 24 ns and 73 ns components were red-shifted to 685 nm and 683 nm respectively.

Breeding density,habitat selection and reproductive rates of the Peregrine Falcon Falco peregrinus in Álava (northern Spain)

A population of 33–35 pairs of Peregrine Falcon in álava (north Spain) was studied with the aim of assessing the habitat attributes that influence breeding density, habitat selection and breeding success. A strong relationship was found between density of the species in each UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) square of 10 × 10 km and cliff availability. Habitat selection was analysed by comparing 15 variables in 33 occupied and 25 unoccupied cliffs located at least 2 km from the nearest Peregrine pair. Significant differences were found in five variables: cliff dominance, distance to the nearest Golden Eagle Aquila chrysaetos nesting cliff, steepness and altitude (all showing larger values in occupied cliffs), and cliff orientation, with occupied cliffs facing preferably south and east. Orientation, dominance and distance to the nearest Golden Eagle pair, and the distance to the nearest Eagle Owl Bubo bubo nesting cliff, were included in a discriminant analysis which classified 82.76% of the cliffs correctly. The productivity of the studied population was 1.44 young/territorial pair (n = 45), and no consistent relationship was found between breeding success and habitat variables.     

动脉粥样硬化斑块中脂肪沉积的扫频光热波成像

动脉粥样硬化和易损斑块破裂在全球范围内具有最高的死亡率,超过传染病和癌症导致的死亡率的总和。动脉粥样硬化斑块是由一层很薄的”纤维帽”和导致血栓形成的脂质核心构成。光热波成像是基于对被目标发色团（本文中指脂肪沉积）吸收的光信号强度进行周期调制,从而实现对目标发色团释放的热（红外）信号的调制。这里,我们利用光热波成像来检测来自兔子动脉硬化模型的粥样硬化斑块中脂肪沉积的三维分布。波长为1210纳米的激光被用来靶向检测脂肪。动脉粥样硬化斑块组织在0．1到5赫兹连续扫频的激光的激发下发出光热波,光热波传播到样品表面形成红外辐射温度并被红外相机以25．6帧／秒的速度接收并录制20秒。红外相机上的每一个像素（总共256~256像素）在进行时域傅里叶变换以后得到强度和相位的频域光热波图像。某一特定频率的强度和相位光热波图像对应着脂肪沉积在动脉粥样硬化斑块样品中的横向和纵向分布。对强度和相位光热波图像的分析指出：光热波成像能够用来检测脂肪在动脉粥样硬化斑块中的三维分布,并且脂肪的分布和动脉粥样硬化斑块的形状特征有着紧密联系。
