The study area comprises two mountain groups – Wielka Racza and Pilsko – situated in western part of the Beskid Żywiecko-Orawski Range in Polish Western Carpathians. The flora of this area includes 111 species of liverworts and 2 species of hornworts. 81 species of liverworts and 2 species of hornworts were found in the area of the Wielka Racza group, 108 species of liverworts and 2 species of hornworts – in the area of the Pilsko group. The species new for the Polish part of the Beskid Żywiecki Range were found (27), as well as for the whole Range including the Slovakian part (22) and for the Western Beskids (2). Moreover, 20 species rare in the Western Beskids as well as 11 species rare in the whole area of the Western Carpathians were recorded. 6 species regarded as threatened in the Polish flora occur in the study area. Four of them belong to the category of endangered species (E):<em> Fossombronia wondraczekii, Frullania tamarisci, Porella baueri</em> and <em>P. platyphylla</em>, the remaining two belong to the category of vulnerable species (V): <em>Geocalyx graveolens</em> and <em>Metzgeria conjugata</em>. A particular attention should be payed to the species threatened on European scale: <em>Lophozia ascendens</em> (R category), <em>Porella baueri</em> (T) and <em>Scapania parvifolia</em> (T). The floristic analysis of habitats covered by liverworts as well as habitat groups of liverworts and habitat preferences of particular species arę presented in the paper. The phytogeographic characteristics of the flora is also given, including vertical and horizontal distribution of liverworts in the study area.

This paper describes the vertical and horizontal distribution, habitat preferences, threats, and conservation status of <em>Trichocolea tomentella</em> in the Polish Carpathians based on the analyses of 138 localities. The species prefers wetland habitats, mostly within forests, such as areas in the vicinity of springs (34% stands), stream banks (32%), wet parts of the forest floor (20%), and mountain bogs (16%). As a consequence of the decrease in the areas of these habitat types, localities of <em>T. tomentella</em> are threatened with extinction. Therefore, according to the IUCN standards, this species should be placed in the near threatened (NT) category in the Polish Carpathians.

Vertical And Horizontal Distribution

The vertical and horizontal distribution of NPEOn and their metabolites of NP and NPEnC in the Upper Nansi Lake, North China were investigated using LC-MS and LC-MS/MS methods, sampling at three sites (St.1, St.2 and St.3) along the water flow direction. The total content of NPEOn (n=1–15) bound onto the sediment of this lake changed in the range of 60.7–631.5 μg/kg-dry with the horizontal flow direction and the vertical direction of the sediment cores with sediment thickness up to 35 cm. Compared to the presence levels of all detected NPEOn species, the content of NP was much higher, falling in 26.5–1,998.4 μg/kg-dry. A general increasing trend of the NP content along the water flow direction of this lake was revealed. NPEnC showed a roughly increasing trend from the upstream to the downstream, with the total concentrations being obviously lower than NPEOn and NP and falling in 2.13–23.1 μg/kg-dry. The short chain NPEOn dominant in NPEO mixtures in these sedimentary cores indicated that this lake received some effluents from STPs, and the sewage treatment ratio is relatively low in this area. Furthermore, the computed magnitudes of NPEO 1-2/NPEO1-15, NP/NPEO 1-15 and NPEC 1-10/NPEO 1-15 suggested that the non-oxidative hydrolytic transformation seemed to be a major process occurring within the sediment phase of Nansi Lake, while the oxidative hydrolytic transformation pathway was probably less involved.

Vertical And Horizontal Distribution

This paper discuss the vertical and horizontal distribution of the marine isopod Rocinela signata Schiödte & Meinert, 1879, along Brazil. Published records and new data gathered in recent years were used. The species, widely distributed along Brazil, has its most southern limit of occurrence considerably extended to off State of Santa Catarina (27º08'S, 48º11'W) . It is typically a shelf species. So far it was recorded off Brazil at a maximum depth of 73 m, while particularly in southern Brazil at 53 m. The species has been collected free living on the bottom or as a fish parasite, and a few times has been reported attacking and sucking swimmers. Available data suggest any host specificity. R. signata seems a facultative and not an obligate fish parasite.

And Migration

The significant pollution accidents which not only threaten public health and public property safety, but also bring major disaster, have become the world concerning environmental problems. The migration process and feature of CdCl2 in the vertical and horizontal profiles of soil were studied by the stimulating experiment to present the theory for the treatment of significant pollution accident. The column leaching device was taken to simulate the vertical and horizontal migration of CdCl2 in the soil profile under two-phase rainfall during 16 days. The portable manual control negative pressure pump was taken to extract soil solution sample and the CdCl2 concentration was determined by the atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Results showed that during the whole experiment, the obvious horizontal and vertical migration features of CdCl2 appeared. The CdCl2 covered the whole horizontal profile in 0.5 h and the whole vertical profile in 146 hours. The relative variation rate of CdCl2 in the different depth of bulk showed that the rapid passing time differed in the different depths. The simulating device used in this paper could well investigate the vertical and horizontal distribution and migration of contaminant. Under the condition of greater rainfall, the CdCl2 gave priority to the horizontal runoff in the surface soil, followed by the vertical migration.
