Pollen analysis was conducted for loess deposits from three sites in the western Chinese Loess Plateau,i.e.the loess area west of the Liupan Mountains.
Northeastern China is located in the East Asian monsoon region;it is sensitive to both high and low latitude global climate systems.Loess deposits are widely distributed on the rims of Horqin and Otin
During the MIS-13 interglacial,the East Asian summer monsoon(EASM) was suggested to be exceptionally strong by different proxy records.
Loess is always described as a silty deposit;a major proportion of the material of a loess deposit is quartz silt.The mode particle might be defined as a quartz silt particle with a nominal diameter o
The loess-soil sequences in the Chinese Loess Plateau(CLP) comprise high-resolution archives of regional and global climate changes.
工业革命以来,人类活动释放的大量CO2 进入大气层,不仅产生严重的温室效应,也使得全球海洋出现酸化的现象。造礁珊瑚被认为是受海水酸化影响最大的类群。本研究以鹿角杯形珊瑚(Pocillopora damicornis)为研究对象,通过气体交换法模拟未来的酸化环境(2100 年)研究鹿角杯形珊瑚的钙化率和光合效率(Fv/Fm)对酸化的响应。
Recent climate change and European settlement have had severe impacts on GBR coral communities,resulting in bleaching,mortality,diversity loss and habitat deterioration.However,the exact timing of suc
Conservation of coral reefs globally is at a crisis point.Successful outcomes for management and conservation of marine ecosystems requires a strong foundation of scientific knowledge,but that does no
自從2012 年11 月中山大學成立東沙國際海洋研究站以後,環礁上研究的密度和廣度都大幅增加.除了原本國家公園以經營管理為出發點的研究以外,另外增加了以科學研究為出發,探討環境、變遷,並以珊瑚礁、海草床、軟珊瑚、海水酸化、大氣傳輸為標的各方面研究,研究站提供在各型研究船隻,以及島上的各項補給;目前有幾項與珊瑚礁相關,向各位報告,並且希望能夠獲得在南海有合作研究的機會.
中光層珊瑚生態系是指水深介於30 至150 公尺的珊瑚群聚。目前已有研究指出中光層珊瑚生態系可能是透光層珊瑚面對極端氣候事件或其他人為干擾的「避難所」。在台灣造礁珊瑚的研究主要集中於水深30 米以淺的透光層,而位於此深度以下的海域,其珊瑚多樣性以及這些礁區所扮演的角色仍有待發掘。因此,我們從2014年開始,在台灣東南海域之綠島進行中光層珊瑚生態系的研究,包括調查造礁珊瑚多樣性、珊瑚群聚組成、以及測
