The distribution of aquatic oligochaetes in the fenland area of N.W. Overijssel (The Netherlands)

A synoptic study of the aquatic ecosystems in the Dutch province of Overijssel revealed the presence of 33 oligochaete taxa in the fendland area of N.W. Overijssel. The material was collected at 101 sampling sites in 1981. Oligochaetes were grouped by means of a normal and inverse cluster analysis. Although most oligochaetes are quite biquitous, differences in occurrence and abundance were observed and related to minor differences in environmental parameters.     

“生态效益”的内涵及其特征

纵观全球,伴随着社会、经济的迅速发展,环境问题已成为一个日趋突出的世界性问题,并对人民生命健康和社会、经济的持续稳定发展带来了严重威胁。生态学界强烈地呼吁人类要保护自然,维持生态平衡,合理地开发利用自然资源,呼吁人类在经济发展中能正确处理经济发展-环境保护,经济效益-生态效益的关系,在实践中取得了一定成效。然而,迄今为止我们对“生态效益”的内涵及特征还没有完全认识和了解,这在相当程度上妨碍了人们在社会生产中对提高生态效益的关注,因此,本问题亟待在理论上加以认识。本文试图对此做一点有益的探讨。     

生态系统与耗散结构

1977年,比利时著名科学家伊·普里高津成功地提出耗散结构理论,荣获了诺贝尔奖。普里高津的理论告诉我们:“一个远离平衡态的复杂系统,各元素的作用具有非线性特点,正是这种非线性的相关机制,导致了大量离子的协同动作,突变而产生有序结构。”普里高津的耗散结构理论,研究系统怎样从混沌无序的动态向稳定有序的结构组织演化及其规律,故也称为非平衡系统自组织理论。这一系统理论的奇葩,对于生态系统的深入研究将起到不可估量的作用。同时,这一理论使我们对生态     

经济管理向生态经济管理的转变

在现代社会中,人类的经济建设以与自然过程相竞争的规模进行着,所造成的生态影响不仅表现在地区生态系统的结构和功能上,也表现在生物圈中,而且还从地球化学循环中显示出来。这种情况,使得现代社会的经济管理,必然由传统的经济管理逐步转变成生态经济管理。     

黄连木五倍子的生态研究与利用

一、产地自然概况黄连木五倍子最早发现于河南省南部信阳市郊贤山脚下(东经114°0′,,北纬32°10′)。该地为低山丘陵,海拔90一320m,南部紧连鸡公山厂傍依南湾水库和狮河。     

旱地作物生态工程的设计

旱地作物生态工程是运用生态学和系统科学的原理和方法而设计和组建的旱地作物生产工艺体系。它把作物及其环境作为一个系统,统筹兼顾,相互协调,全面安排,综合利用。其最终目标是建立高效的,相对平衡的旱地作物生态系统。工程的最大特点在于它的整体性和综合性。它是作物先进生产技术的科学组装     

流域开发生态建设发展战略

以往研究流域开发战略问题,多从流域内资源的开发利用方面考虑,而衡量其方案的优劣也多以经济效益的大小为准绳。现在,环境污染与生态危机已威胁着人类的生存与发展,因此在研究流域战略问题时,必须开拓思路,     

Species boundaries,phylogenetic relationships,and ecological differentiation inAnthriscus (Apiaceae)

Species boundaries and phylogenetic relationships of 17 taxa ofAnthriscus (Apiaceae), with special emphasis on the critical sect.Cacosciadium, were explored using morphological data with principal component analysis, phenetics, and phylogenetics. The analyses did not provide satisfactory resolution of taxa from sect.Cacosciadium and only four species were retained. The total number of species was reduced to nine. Sect.Cacosciadium is distinguished by only two synapomorphies while sects.Anthriscus andCaroides are better supported. Present geographic and ecological variation suggests that the radiation ofAnthriscus occurred through divergence of peripheral isolated populations adapting to different habitats: high montane meadows and screes, shady climax forests, and seasonally dry habitats at lower altitudes. The adaptive significance of particular morphological traits is discussed.

Evaluation of three herbaceous index plant species for bioavailability of soil cadmium, chromium, nickel and vanadium

Uncultivated plants growing on disturbed sites may be useful for assessing the bioavailability of some metals in soils, and thus the potential for metal mobilization up the terrestrial food chain, an important element in ecological risk assessment. A planted chicory cultivar (Cichorium intybus L. var. foliosum Hegi.) and the uncultivated plants horseweed (Canada fleabane) (Erigeron canadensis L.) and dogfennel (Eupatorium capillifolium (Lam.) Small) were evaluated for their ability to act as index plant species for soil Cd, Cr, Ni, and V at two field sites where these metals had been applied five yr previously to two highly weathered sandy Ultisols. Soil Cd was available to all analyzed plant tissues of all three plant species at both sites, particularly on the sandier Blanton soil. Chicory was an effective index plant for Cd on the finer textured Orangeburg soil but functioned as an indicator plant (toxicity symptoms were observed) on the sandier Blanton soil. Horseweed and dogfennel were effective index plants for Cd in both contaminated soils. Soil Cr, Ni, and V were less bioavailable than soil Cd and plant metal uptake was more sensitive to residual soil Cr, Ni, and V than was soil extraction with double acid. Horseweed and chicory may have potential as index plants for soil Cr. Chicory may have potential as a Ni index plant. Chicory and dogfennel may have potential as V index plants.
