Context
Predicting ecosystem resilience is a challenge, especially as climate change alters disturbance regimes and conditions for recovery. Recent research has highlighted the importance of spatially-explicit disturbance and resilience processes to long-term ecosystem dynamics. “Neoecological” approaches characterize resilience mechanisms at relatively fine spatio-temporal resolutions, but results are difficult to extrapolate across broad temporal scales or climatic ranges. Paleoecological methodologies can consider the effects of climates that differ from today. However, they are often limited to coarse-grained spatio-temporal resolutions.
MethodsIn this synthesis, we describe implicit and explicit examples of studies that incorporate both neo- and paleoecological approaches. We propose ways to build on the strengths of both approaches in an explicit and proactive fashion.
ResultsLinking the two approaches is a powerful way to surpass their respective limitations. Aligning spatial scales is critical: Paleoecological sampling design should incorporate knowledge of the spatial characteristics of the disturbance process, and neoecological studies benefit from a longer-term context to their conclusions. In some cases, modeling can incorporate non-spatial data from paleoecological records or emerging spatial paleo-data networks with mechanistic disturbance/recovery processes that operate at fine spatiotemporal scales.
ConclusionsLinking these two complementary approaches is a powerful way to build a complete understanding of ecosystem disturbance and resilience.

A sophisticated modeling approach for simulating-coupled surface and subsurface flows in a watershed is presented. The watershed
model developed is a spatially distributed physically based model of composite dimension, consisting of 3-D variably saturated
groundwater flow submodel, 2-D overland flow submodel and 1-D river flow submodel. The 3-D subsurface flow is represented
by the complete Richards equation, while the 2-D and 1-D surface flows by the diffusive approximations of their complete dynamic
equations. For piecewise integration of these equations, the finite volume method (FVM) is employed assuming unknown variables
such as the water depth and the pressure head to be volume-averaged state ones. Problem plane geometry is meshed with the
unstructured cells of triangular shape which conforms to external as well as internal irregular boundaries such as those between
1-D and 2-D flows. A cell size controlling scheme, referred to as quasi-adaptive meshing scheme, is introduced to keep the
local discretization errors caused by topographic elevation gradient even over the entire-meshed geometry. Performance of
the model is tested through its practical application to a rugged intermountain watershed. Tuning the values of the three
key parameters ensures successful calibration of the model. Once the model is so calibrated, it could reproduce satisfactory
runoff response to any rainfall event. Expansion and shrinkage of the contributing area importantly affecting the direct runoff,
caused by the vicissitude of rainfall during its total duration, are well reproduced, like what the commonly accepted runoff
theory argues. It is thus concluded that the model developed could serve as a powerful watershed simulator usable for investigating
and assessing the hydrological aspect of a watershed. 相似文献

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular coccidian parasite found worldwide and is known to infect virtually all warm-blooded animals. It requires a cat (family Felidae) to complete its full life cycle. Despite the absence of wild felids on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, T. gondii has been found in resident predators such as the arctic fox and polar bear. It has therefore been suggested that T. gondii may enter this ecosystem via migratory birds. The objective of this study was to identify locations where goose populations may become infected with T. gondii, and to investigate the dynamics of T. gondii specific antibodies. Single blood samples of both adults and juveniles were collected from selected goose species (Anser anser, A. brachyrhynchus, Branta canadensis, B. leucopsis) at Arctic brood-rearing areas in Russia and on Svalbard, and temperate wintering grounds in the Netherlands and Denmark (migratory populations) as well as temperate brood-rearing grounds (the Netherlands, non-migratory populations). A modified agglutination test was used on serum, for detection of antibodies against T. gondii. Occasional repeated annual sampling of individual adults was performed to determine the antibody dynamics. Adults were found seropositive at all locations (Arctic and temperate, brood-rearing and wintering grounds) with low seroprevalence in brood-rearing birds on temperate grounds. As no juvenile geese were found seropositive at any brood-rearing location, but nine month old geese were found seropositive during spring migration we conclude that geese, irrespective of species and migration, encounter T. gondii infection in wintering areas. In re-sampled birds on Svalbard significant seroreversion was observed, with 42% of seropositive adults showing no detectable antibodies after 12 months, while the proportion of seroconversion was only 3%. Modelled variation of seroprevalence with field data on antibody longevity and parasite transmission suggests seroprevalence of a population within a range of 5.2–19.9%, in line with measured values. The high occurrence of seroreversion compared to the low occurrence of seroconversion hampers analysis of species- or site-specific patterns, but explains the absence of an increase in seroprevalence with age and the observed variation in antibody titre. These findings imply that even though infection rate is low, adults introduce T. gondii to the high Arctic ecosystem following infection in temperate regions. 相似文献

Long-term simulation using the distributed hydro-environmental watershed model is efficacious for assessing irrigation impacts
on hydrological cycle in detail and for implementing watershed management successfully. In this article, the previously developed
hydro-environmental watershed model (HEWM-1) is improved in the water exchange process caused by surface water-groundwater
interaction via drainage canals and/or underdrains. The time-varying stream flow in canals is described by the complete one-dimensional
shallow water equations in a newly introduced submodel, the open channel flow submodel. This submodel coordinates with the
other submodels: the tank, soil moisture and groundwater flow submodels which are interlinked in a cascade manner. The improved
model (HEWM-2) is applied to an agricultural watershed covering an area from an alluvial fan onto a nearly level alluvial
plain, to be validated. The simulation by HEWM-2 is informative for identifying whether any drainage canal is gaining or losing
water in relation to groundwater level. It could thus provide useful information for conserving a complex network of drainage
canals which also functions as a passage for aquatic animals like fishes. 相似文献

In this study the potential role of circulatory disturbances in the pathogenesis of sesamoiditis was investigated by studying the clinical and histological effects of experimental occlusion of the sesamoidean artery, which is the main nutrient artery of the proximal sesamoid bone (PSB). For this purpose, five adult Dutch Warmblood horses were used in which the sesamoidean artery was occluded with polyvinyl alcohol foam particles. Bone labelling was carried out with oxytetracycline and calcein. All animal were checked clinically three times a week and radiographically at days 14, 21, 28 and 35. At day 35 the animals were killed and the fetlock was dissected and macroscopically evaluated. The PSBs were isolated and radiographed and the soft tissues adjacent to the abaxial side of the PSBs were histologically examined [routine histology and for the neuropeptides substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)]. The PSBs were divided into bony slices which were radiographed and evaluated histologically (routine, SP, CGRP, fluorescence). All horses showed a slight lameness that gradually diminished. Radiographically enlarged vascular channels were seen in only one horse. Histological data showed that on average 60% (range 37-89%) of the total area had been deprived of vascularization. In two horses an increase in the extent of the arterial network from the basal side of the PSB was seen. Only in the horse with the greatest extent of occlusion were bone necrosis and a reactively increased uptake of fluorochromes adjacent to the occluded arteries found. Bone density did not change. The distribution of neuropeptides in the surrounding soft tissues was not affected by the occlusion. From this study, it can be concluded that a large part of the arterial supply to the PSB can be interrupted without provoking histological and/or radiographic changes that are consistent with clinical sesamoiditis. Therefore, it seems very improbable that circulatory disturbances are a primary aetiopathogenic factor in the disease. 相似文献

An optimization model for cropping-plan placement on field plots is presented for supporting decision-making on agricultural management by a farming organization. The mixed 0?C1 programming technique is employed to select the next planting crop at each field plot in a holistic manner. Reduction of total nitrogen discharged from field plots to the downstream end of the drainage canals is expressed as an objective function of the model to balance an achievement of economic goal and environmental conservation. Some Japanese governmental policies on regulating rice cropping areas and on promoting production of particular upland field crops can be formulated in the model. A computational example of cropping-plan placement on field plots managed under integrated policies is given by operating the optimization model with various weights associated with the objectives. The procured trade-off curve and corresponding patterns of cropping-plan could be useful in the decision-making by the farming organization. 相似文献
