A systematic survey was conducted in Laohegou Nature Reserve in Sichuan Province from mid-April to late October, 2013 (13 repeats altogether, about 15 days between repeats). Supplementary surveys were carried out in 2014 and 2015. 252 species of butterfly were found in total belonging to 12 families and 117 genera, in which the richness of Nymphalidae is the highest (33.3%). During the systematic survey in 2013, there were 235 species found, and 17 species were newly recorded in 2014 and 2015, indicating that almost complete information may be obtained based on our survey protocol. There were 3 species assessed globally as “least concern” by IUCN Red List, and 5 species protected by Chinese law. The proportion of Palearctic, Oriental, and Palearctic-Oriental species was 3.3%, 32.9%, and 63.8%, respectively. Taking the butterfly fauna composition of other districts into account, Qinling and Minshan mountains were found to serve as geographical barrier to the dispersal of Palearctic and Oriental species. The butterfly richness was the highest from June to September. Butterfly species richness was unimodal in general with elevation rising. The highest was in 1500–1600 m, and there was a minor peak in 1000–1100 m, in which the transect lied in a village near the boundary of the reserve, indicating that moderate interference by human activity was conducive to the conservation of butterfly diversity. This work provides an optimized protocol for butterfly monitoring survey.

In order to achieve high accuracy IBA (ion beam analysis), the calculation error of solid angle were discussed meticulously. The accuracies of face to point solid angle and approximate solid angle were calculated, based on face to face solid angle which contained area of beam spot. Based on 4.5 MV electrostatic accelerator ion beam target chamber of Peking University, solid angle influenced by distributions of cross-section and beam intensity was determined. A geometry-condition estimation for accuracy of approximate solid angle better than 1% was given and verified by two examples. For fatherly achievement of high-accuracy solid angle, accurate machining such as laser processing is required.

To investigate the pollution characteristics of eleven perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) in a rapidly urbanizing catchment, water samples from the Guanlan River in Shenzhen were collected during the dry season and the wet season. All the samples were pretreated by solid-phase extraction and analyzed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry with electron spray ionization (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS). The results indicated that the concentrations of PFCs in the mainstream of Guanlan River during the wet season and dry season were 179.15–613.68 and 37.04–103.70 ng/L, respectively. Perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS), perfluorobutane sulfonic acid (PFBS), perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) were the predominant pollutants. The concentration of PFCs in the wet season was higher than that in the dry season, and the concentration of PFCs in the downstream was higher than that in the upper and middle stream. Compared with other water body in the world, the levels of PFCs in Guanlan River were relatively high due to the rapid urbanization in the region. The ecological risk of PFCs to aquatic organisms was neglectable.

The occurrence of 22 antibiotics in water samples, sediments, fish and shellfish in aquaculture area of the Pearl River Estuary (Zhuhai and Daya Bay) was studied, using ultrasonic extraction combined with ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The main pollutants detected in aquaculture area of the Pearl River Estuary are quinolones such as norfloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and flumequine. Higher Σantibiotics were observed in Zhuhai Bay in water and sediments compared with Daya Bay. The concentrations of antibiotics in water samples, ranging from 0.13 (sulfamethoxazole) to 4.68 (spectinomycin) ng/L on average, were strongly affected by precipitation. The concentrations of antibiotics in sediments, ranging from 0.02 (isochlortetracycline) to 8.77 (spectinomycin) ng/g (dry weight) on average, accumulated over time. The concentrations of antibiotics in seafood ranged from 0.06 (sulfamerazine) to 46.75 (norfloxacin) ng/g (dry weight). The concentration levels of antibiotics in shellfish and fish were similar and did not show any significant difference. The correlation analysis showed that the concentration levels of antibiotics among sediments were the same; for most seafood, it was same; and for water samples, the difference was great.

A fast and simple method for simultaneous determination of fifteen antibiotics (sulfadiazine, ciprofloxacin, penicillin, spechromycin and roxithromycin) in mussels using ultrasound extraction, solid phase extraction purification and ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric was established. The mussel samples were extracted by ultrasonic extraction, followed by solid-phase extraction (SPE) as the cleanup procedure. Ultra performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was used for identification and quantification of antibiotics. The performance of two kinds of SPE cartridges, Oasis HLB and Oasis PRiME HLB, was compared, with the latter showing better results. Recoveries ranged from 64% to 121% at spiking levels of 50 ng/g, with RSD being 0.5%–19%, and from 67% to 117% at spiking levels of 100 ng/g, with RSD being 1%–9%. Limits of detection (LODs) ranged from 0.004 to 0.5 ng/g (dry weight) and limits of quantification (LOQs) ranged from 0.013 to 1.67 ng/g (dry weight). The recoveries were reasonable and the detection limit was low. Finally, the method was successfully applied to the determination of the target antibiotics in mussel samples (Hyriopsis cumingii) collected from Poyang Lake. 9 out of 15 selected antibiotics were detected in the collected mussel tissues. The concentration and detection frequency of trimethoprim in mussels were the highest. The concentration of trimethoprim was 78.8 ng/g, followed by spectinmycin (41.2 ng/g) and ciprofloxacin (39.8 ng/g).

Using one kind of main mercury methylation iron reducing bacteria of Geobacter sulphurreducens PCA strains as targeting bacteria, two kinds of quinolones ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin were chosen to study the influence of antibiotics on PCA strains and its ability to methylate mercury in combined pollution. The experiment results showed that a promoting effect of antibiotics on growth PCA was found under the low concentration. Through the detection of the concentration of antibiotic and the figure of ESI scan, it was found that Geobacter sulphurreducens PCA could metabolize ofloxacin, but ciprofloxacin could not be degraded by Geobacter sulphurreducens PCA. Methylation of mercury was promoted by the presence of two kinds of antibiotics, the methyl-mercury conversion rate of ofloxacin to Geobacter sulphurreducens PCA was 4.21 times higher than that of the control group, ciprofloxacin was 2.27 times, and the addition of two mixed kinds of antibiotics was nearly 2 times respectively. In the mixed solution, there is no superimposed effect of methyl-mercury.

Based on the theory of man-land relationship area system, following the research ideas, which were factors to express the feature and features to group the type and types to guide the models and models to improve factors, the social economic factors and natural environment factors of rural settlement were defined clearly. The characteristics of the inequality of rural industry-labor structure, the livability of rural living environment and the intensity of rural residential land were analyzed quantitatively by the coordination coefficient model and multifactor comprehensive evaluation method. Qualitative coupling method of elements and characteristics were used to classify the rural settlements as eight types in the same county, and eleven rural residential consolidation models were proposed from the three aspects of resources allocation, structure optimization and space reconstruction in the light of the limiting factors of different rural settlement type. The empirical results show that the difference is significant in the aspect of rural settlements elements and regional characteristics in Pinggu district, Beijing. There are more restrictive factors for rural residential area sustainable utilization. 55.64% villages are imbalance in the aspect of industry-labor structure, 52% villages are unfavorable relatively in the aspect of housing conditions, 44.36% villages are less intensive in the aspect of land use, and the formation of the imbalance-not livable-height intensity is too much in the whole region. Single factor special consolidation and multi-factor comprehensive consolidation, which include upgrading of rural industrial structure, transferring of surplus labor force, renewal and reorganization of rural living environment factors, reconstruction of the urban and rural system and spatial agglomeration, are the core contents of rural residential land consolidation and rich and beautiful countryside construction.

To fulfill the need of studying the deuterium retention in nuclear materials, the authors set up an NRA to analyze device with three channel detecting system based on 4.5 MV electrostatic accelerator in Peking University, and developed a multi-energies NRA method for quantitative depth profiling deuterium. With the simultaneous energy spectra of p and 4He created by the D (3He, p) 4He nuclear reaction, by adopting several different incident 3He+ energies (0.8?3.6 MeV), a reasonable better depth resolution and higher sensitivity in a larger analyzing depth could be obtained. The authors also measured differential cross-section of the 3He-D reaction at 135°. The relative accuracy of these data was better than ±3.9%. The initial measurement of concentration and depth profiles of D was carried out, using targets of implanted PC-W samples, as well as CMSIIW samples from a W-coated outer divertor tile of TOKAMAK AUG near the strike points. A ~6 μm analyzed depth could be obtained with a depth resolution less than 1.5 μm throughout the whole detecting range and a ~20 nm minimal resolution at the sample surfaces. The detection limit was around 5×1019 D/m2. Apart from the statistical and fitting error of NRA spectra, the NRA system had an experimental error of ±7.5% from the parameter measurement.

Based on the statistical data of 126 counties in Henan, using mathematical statistics method and spatial autocorrelation analysis, spatial changes and variation character of grain yield per hectare at county level in Henan Province during 1980?2012 are discussed by SPSS, ArcGIS and GeoDa software, and the increase potential of grain yield per hectare and total yield at regional scale are calculated. The results show that:1) During 1980?2012, grain yield per hectare and its absolute difference at county level take on increasing trend by and large, while the relative difference increases first and then decreases. The distributional pattern of grain yield per hectare changes from positive skewness to negative skewness, and the agglomeration degree of grain yield per hectare increases first and then decreases. 2) Grain yield per hectare at county level in Henan has a strong spatial autocorrelation with evident pattern “high in the eastern while low in the western”. The increment of grain yield per hectare descends from East to West at county level, and counties with higher increment of grain yield per hectare gather in the eastern plain area of Henan. 3) The changes of grain yield per hectare at county level show a positive spatial autocorrelation and the characteristic of spatial clustering of regional high value and low value is significant. The counties with “High-High” and “Low-Low” correlation are the majority. The counties with significant “High-High” correlation are mostly located in the eastern of Huang-Huai plain area and northwestern of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan low-lying plain area, while the counties with significant “Low-Low” correlation are mainly distributed in western Henan mountainous-hilly area and western of Huang-Huai plain area. 4) Henan Province is divided into 5 first-grade regions and 11 second-grade regions according to the coupled conditions of farming system regionalization and LISA cluster map. The potential output per hectare of the 5 first-grade regions could be sorted in descending order as hilly-mountainous region of Hubei-Henan-Anhui, piedmont region of Taihang mountain and Yanshan mountain, western Henan mountainous-hilly region, Huang-Huai plain region, and Hebei-Shandong-Henan low-lying plain region. The total potential output of Henan Province is 1.27×107 tons, and the 5 regions could be sorted as Huang-Huai plain area, hilly-mountainous region of Hubei-Henan-Anhui, piedmont region of Taihang mountain and Yanshan mountain, western Henan mountainous-hilly region, and Hebei-Shandong-Henan low-lying plain region.

Light microtechnique and SA-β-galactosidase method was used to study the effects of super-high-concentration of glucose on the senescence of human diploid fibroblast 2BS cells, ROS and the membrane potential of mitochondria during this process were measured. Our results showed that 200 mmol/L of glucose inhibited the growth of 2BS cells, led to the changes of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential,and caused senescence of 2BS cells rapidly. It supports the hypothesis of oxidative damage of senescence. Moreover it is a better system for the study of the effects of ROS during the process of replicative senescence.
