Previous epidemiological studies on the association between short-term exposure to particulate matter (PM) with hospital admission in major cities in China were limited to shorter study periods or a single hospital. The aim of this ...
The difficulty of accurately interpreting data on faunal dynamics is outlined in the light of these and other factors. The suggestion is made that such data would be of little use in an assessment of temporally changing pollution effects. 展开 ...
摘要:We analyzed the effects of sewage discharge on a subtropical estuary by comparing the functional diversity of intertidal macroinvertebrate assemblages in contaminated with non-contaminated reference areas. Functional structure was assessed using biological traits analysis (BTA) and four multivariate indice...
Sediment bypass tunnels (SBTs) are guiding structures used to reduce sediment accumulation in reservoirs during high flows by transporting sediments to downstream reaches during operation. Previous studies monitoring the ecological effects of SBT operati
drastic decrease and loss [13,19]. In addition, the macrophytes distributed throughout the lateral components of the fluvial systems, including lakes, channels and rivers, help mitigate the negative effects of climate change, as wetlands are considered relevant reservoirs of blue carbon [14,15]. ...

Nevertheless, climate effects on the coastal carbon sink remain largely studied within individual ecosystems. Future work is needed to determine the connectivity of carbon between ecosystems, changes in carbon accumulation and greenhouse gas emissions as ecosystem transitions occur, and the fate of carbon...
2) Monitor the effects of human-environmental interactions in urban systems, develop appropriate tools (such as GIS) for data collection and analysis of socio-economic and ecosystem data, and develop integrated approaches to linking human and natural systems in an urban ecosystem environment; and 3...
Monitoring of pesticide levels thus requires a very frequent sampling to detect peak concentrations (Liess et al. 2003). Another concern is that toxic effects can result from exposure near or below the analytical detection limit for a given pesticide (Walter et al. 2002) or from a combination ...
