白浆土对腐殖酸的吸附等温线和动力学研究

白浆土是吉林省和黑龙江省东部地区的主要农田土壤之一,研究白浆土对腐殖酸的吸附作用,可为探究白浆土的固碳潜力提供理论依据。采用批量平衡法,分析不同有机碳含量的白浆土及其组分(包括去有机质土壤、粉粒、黏粒)对腐殖酸的吸附动力学和等温吸附特性。结果表明:随吸附时间的延长,白浆土及其各组分对腐殖酸的吸附量逐渐增加;整个吸附动力学过程可划分为快速(0～30 min)和慢速(30～480 min)反应阶段,伪二级动力学方程的拟合效果优于Elovich、双常数和伪一级动力学方程。白浆土及其各组分对腐殖酸的吸附量随腐殖酸初始浓度的增加逐渐增大,Langmuir方程的拟合效果通常优于Freundlich方程和Temkin方程。随白浆土有机碳含量的增加,其对腐殖酸的最大吸附量分别为26.9,24.1,15.6 mg/g。而白浆土不同组分相比,最大吸附量的顺序依次为黏粒>去有机质土壤>粉粒,黏粒对腐殖酸的吸附量分别是原土的2.15～3.88倍,去有机质土壤的1.61～2.21倍,粉粒土壤的7.90～8.65倍。有机碳含量低的白浆土对腐殖酸具有更强的吸附能力,黏粒含量高的白浆土对腐殖酸的吸附潜力更大。

典型湖库底泥对氮吸附特性的影响

以吉林省长春市新立城水库为对象,采用连续分级法研究土壤及底泥中的游离态氮(FN)、可交换态氮(EN)、酸解态氮(HN)和残渣态氮(RN)之间的关系,探讨土壤和底泥对氮的吸附等温线、吸附动力学、吸附热力学及不同pH和有机质对氮吸附量的影响。结果表明:富营养化湖库底泥中FN、EN和HN的含量均高于新立城水库底泥和土壤,试样中氮素的稳定性为新立城水库底泥土壤富营养化水库底泥。对NH+4-N的吸附动力学可通过准二级反应动力学方程来表示,新立城水库底泥、富营养化湖库底泥和土壤的吸附平衡时间大致为20min,平衡吸附量分别为375.887,156.287,364.966μg/g,等温线可以通过Langmuir方程进行描述,底泥对NH+4-N的平衡吸附量与底泥中游离态氮和可交换态氮含量之和呈显著负相关,相关性系数为0.901 6;吸附热力学表明,随着温度的升高,吸附量逐渐减少,说明样品在完成物理吸附的同时还存在一个弱放热反应。样品对NH+4-N吸附量随着pH的增加而增大,pH在平衡吸附量对土壤的影响要高于底泥,底泥对NH+4-N吸附量随着有机质含量及温度的升高而降低。     

基于农田土壤镉污染修复后糙米镉的指标筛选

目前农田土壤镉污染修复以降低糙米镉含量为标准,而忽略了其变化的关键性的土壤物理、化学及生物指标。基于此,采用方差分析、多元回归分析、通径分析、随机森林和结构方程模型等统计方法分析了土壤pH值、有机质、容重、阳离子交换量、速效养分、质地、微团聚体、酶活性、微生物数量等23个土壤指标对土壤有效态Cd和糙米Cd含量重要性排序。结果表明,总体上施用土壤调理剂提高了土壤pH值、容重和阳离子交换量,改变了土壤质地组成,增加了大粒级团聚体,并影响了微生物环境,有效降低了土壤有效态Cd和糙米Cd含量,但抑制了部分酶活性和微生物数量。通过逐步回归分析,表明土壤pH值和放线菌可以解释土壤有效态Cd 64.32%的变化,阳离子交换量、速效钾、有效磷和蔗糖酶可以解释糙米Cd 82.10%的变化;通径分析表明大粒径团聚体、有机质、黏粒、砂粒、放线菌和真菌对土壤有效态Cd和糙米Cd的直接效应较大;随机森林分析表明土壤pH值是影响土壤有效态Cd和糙米Cd含量的主导因素;结构方程模型表明糙米Cd含量主要受土壤pH值、有机质、阳离子交换量和有效磷的影响,土壤有效态Cd主要受土壤酶活性和微生物数量的影响。不同分析方法侧重点不同,总体上对糙米Cd含量影响较大的是pH值、阳离子交换量、有效磷和有机质等,对土壤有效态Cd含量影响较大的是pH值、放线菌和有机质等。     

紫色土可溶性有机碳的吸附-解吸特征

选择代表性的酸性、中性和石灰性紫色土为实验材料,采用平衡吸附和动力学吸附法研究了紫色土对可溶性有机碳（DOC）的吸附-解吸特征,分析了土壤理化性质与DOC吸附量之间的关系。结果表明,紫色土对DOC的吸附容量呈以下顺序：酸性紫色土〉中性紫色土〉石灰性紫色土。石灰性紫色土对DOC的解吸率明显高于酸性、中性紫色土,其迁移淋失问题值得重视。紫色土对DOC的吸附过程包括快速吸附和慢速吸附2个阶段,0~0.5 h内吸附速率最大,随后吸附速率逐渐减小,4~6 h内基本达到吸附平衡。土壤pH值、有机质、粘粒和活性铁铝氧化物含量是影响土壤DOC吸附量与解吸率的重要因素。通径分析表明,土壤理化性质对DOC吸附量的直接作用系数大小顺序为活性铝含量〉土壤pH值〉有机质,对DOC解吸率的直接作用系数大小顺序为活性铁含量〉粘粒〉有机质。多元线性回归模型能较好地预测土壤对DOC的吸附及解吸的变化。     

可溶性有机碳在盐碱水田土壤中的吸附特征及影响因素

土壤吸附可溶性有机碳(DOC)对土壤有机碳的循环转化有重要影响。为进一步明确田间实际情况下盐碱水田土壤对DOC的吸附规律,选取吉林西部不同盐碱程度的5块水田土壤(P1、P2、P3、P4和P5),采用室内模拟试验,在静止条件下培养70天,模拟研究了土壤在自然状态下对不同浓度DOC的吸附特征,分析了理化性质对DOC最大累积吸附量的影响。结果表明:土壤对DOC的吸附速率在试验初期较快,然后逐渐减弱并达到平衡,Elovich方程可描述土壤对DOC的动力学吸附特征,且适用于土壤对不同浓度DOC的吸附。DOC的等温吸附特征用Freundlich方程拟合效果最好,从方程参数看各样地土壤吸附能力有明显差异,表层吸附能力大于底层。碱化度和pH是影响土壤最大累积吸附量的主要因素;黏粒含量越高的土壤最大累积吸附量越大;有机质促进了土壤对DOC的吸附。研究结果对充分认识DOC在盐碱土壤中迁移转化具有重要意义。     

渭北旱塬区不同坡向土地利用类型对土壤性质的影响

为了研究不同坡向土地利用类型对土壤性质的影响,以渭北旱塬区5种土地利用类型(不同坡向)为研究对象,系统分析该区不同坡向土地利用类型剖面土壤物理、化学和生物性质的差异。结果表明:(1)除土壤pH和土壤颗粒组成外,5种土地利用类型土壤含水量、总孔隙度、有机质、全氮、微生物量碳和氮含量总体随土层加深呈下降趋势,土壤容重则相反。(2)0-30cm土层,阳坡农用地土壤含水量、黏粒含量和pH最高,粉粒和全氮含量最低;人工草地砂粒和全氮含量最高,黏粒含量最低;人工林地土壤总孔隙度、土壤有机质、微生物量碳和氮含量最高,土壤含水量、土壤容重和pH最低;天然草地土壤容重和粉粒含量最高,总孔隙度和砂粒含量最低;退耕地有机质、微生物量碳和氮含量最低。阴坡农用地土壤含水量、粉粒含量和pH最高,黏粒和全氮含量最低;人工草地土壤容重、黏粒和微生物量氮含量最高,土壤总孔隙度、粉粒、砂粒和有机质含量最低;人工林地有机质含量和微生物量碳含量最高;天然草地土壤总孔隙度、砂粒和全氮含量最高,土壤容重和pH最低;退耕地土壤含水量、微生物量碳和氮含量最低。(3)5种土地利用类型中,土壤容重、细黏粒、粗黏粒、细粉粒、粗砂粒、土壤pH和有机质(退耕地除外)表现为阳坡阴坡,土壤含水量(退耕地和农用地除外)、总孔隙度、粗粉粒、细砂粒、土壤质地粗化度、全氮(人工草地除外)、土壤微生物量碳和氮含量则为阴坡阳坡。     

五氯酚在酸性土壤表面的吸附-解吸特征研究

本实验研究五氯酚在江西红壤和南京黄棕壤表面的吸附-解吸特征,结果表明:Freundlich和Langmuir等温吸附方程均能较好地描述PCP在两种土壤表面的吸附,且黄棕壤表面的最大吸附量大于红壤。用动力学方程对PCP在红壤中的吸附过程进行拟合,Elovich方程、双常数方程和一级动力学方程均得到较好的结果,其相关系数(R2)在0.96 ~ 0.99之间,达到极显著水平。Elovich方程反映出PCP在土壤表面吸附的能量非均质分布;而抛物线扩散方程不能描述PCP的吸附过程,其相关系数0.46 ~ 0.48。PCP在土壤中的解吸率与有机质含量和pH值相关,随有机质含量增加,PCP解吸率降低,即黄棕壤表土<黄棕壤底土,红壤表土<红壤底土;随模拟酸雨的pH值降低,土壤因对PCP的吸附能力增加,其解吸率降低。

Biodiversity and ecogeography of wild Lactuca spp. in some European countries

Staff members of the Department of Botany of Palacký University in Olomouc and Gene Bank Department – Workplace Olomouc, Research Institute of Crop Production in Prague, Czech Republic, conducted an expedition in seven European countries (Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland) in August/September 1999 to collect wild Lactuca spp. germplasm and study its geographic distribution, ecology and biodiversity. During the mission, more than 600 locations were visited resulting in the collection of 602 seed samples (accessions) of wild Lactuca species and 13 seed samples of related genera (Chondrilla and Mycelis). Lactuca serriola f. serriola, L. serriola f. integrifolia, L. saligna and L. viminea subsp. chondrilliflora were prevalent in southern Europe (Italy, France), however, only L. serriola was common in central and western Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland). The greatest diversity of Lactuca species was found in France, where also the most seed samples (165) were collected. The most characteristic habitats with a high density of Lactuca spp. populations were observed along roads and highways, grassy ditches, ruderal communities, and dust-heaps. Natural infections by powdery mildew (Erysiphe cichoracearum) and downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) on some wild Lactuca spp. were observed. Recent observations concerning the geographic distribution, population structure, habitats, and natural occurrence of diseases of Lactuca spp. are discussed. This assemblage of genetic resources of Lactuca spp. can serve as the basis of future studies of species diversification, spatial population structure, plant microevolution, domestication processes, and genetic variability of host-parasite interactions.     

Pasture Vegetation Elemental Analysis by Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a new technique for the analysis of plant material. This study investigates the application of LIBS to pasture-based plant samples. The LIBS measurements were obtained from pelletized pasture samples (100 samples) that had been also analyzed by inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) following microwave digestion for calibration and comparison purposes. Comparisons for elements sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), boron (B), phosphorus (P), and sulfur (S) showed that LIBS could be used for almost all the standard profile total elements with concentrations down to low mg/kg levels (observed error of Na: 0.024 percent, K: 0.18 percent, Mg: 0.016 percent, Ca: 0.073 percent, P: 0.017 percent, Mn: 31 mg/kg, Fe: 150 mg/kg, Zn: 6.6 mg/kg, and B: 1.1 mg/kg). Elemental analysis at less than mg/kg levels was not possible using LIBS. The elements S and Cu were particularly difficult to analyze with reliability using LIBS at the concentration levels found in the plant samples. Replacing microwave digestion and subsequent ICP analysis with a direct analysis of dried plant samples using LIBS has the potential to improve the productivity and reduce the cost of testing.     

Properties of anaerobically digested and composted municipal solid waste assessed by linking soil mesofauna dynamics and nitrogen modelling

We have studied the effect of anaerobically digested (ADMSW) and composted municipal solid waste (CMSW) on mineralization and foodweb dynamics to verify the hypothesis that ADMSW would immobilize N right after addition to soil in contrast to addition with CMSW. Another hypothesis was that the mesofauna (enchytraeids and microarthropods) would stimulate N release from the decomposer community. We measured excretion of -N and urea-N from the mesofauna and hypothesized that enchytraeids would release urea. ADMSW and CMSW were amended to pots with sandy loam and barley. The pots were divided into treatments with or without mesofauna. Mesofauna, plant N and biomass, soil N and ergosterol (fungal biomass) were measured over a 113-day period of four equidistant samplings. Soil respiration, N mineralization and N release by the mesofauna were modelled from concurrent studies. ADMSW- and CMSW-treated soils initially (<20 days) immobilized N. The amendments did not increase plant growth substantially, and this was probably due to N-limitation in the early stages of plant growth. Enchytraeid abundance was about three times higher in ADMSW- than CMSW-treated soils, indicating that ADMSW contained more labile compounds, bacteria, and microfauna. The mesofauna did not affect N-content, but the cumulated -N excreted by the mesofauna was estimated to be substantial and about one-fifth of total plant N in ADMSW. An explanation for this discrepancy might be that in the absence of the mesofauna, other members of the detrivore and microbivore community performed the mesofauna’s function. Neither enchytraeids nor microarthropods excreted urea.

Macroinvertebrates in North American tallgrass prairie soils: effects of fire, mowing, and fertilization on density and biomass

The responses of tallgrass prairie plant communities and ecosystem processes to fire and grazing are well characterized. However, responses of invertebrate consumer groups, and particularly soil-dwelling organisms, to these disturbances are not well known. At Konza Prairie Biological Station, we sampled soil macroinvertebrates in 1994 and 1999 as part of a long-term experiment designed to examine the effects and interactions of annual fire, mowing, and fertilization (N and P) on prairie soil communities and processes. For nearly all taxa, in both years, responses were characterized by significant treatment interactions, but some general patterns were evident. Introduced European earthworms (Aporrectodea spp. and Octolasion spp.) were most abundant in plots where fire was excluded, and the proportion of the total earthworm community consisting of introduced earthworms was greater in unburned, unmowed, and fertilized plots. Nymphs of two Cicada genera were collected (Cicadetta spp. and Tibicen spp.). Cicadetta nymphs were more abundant in burned plots, but mowing reduced their abundance. Tibicen nymphs were collected almost exclusively from unburned plots. Treatment effects on herbivorous beetle larvae (Scarabaeidae, Elateridae, and Curculionidae) were variable, but nutrient additions (N or P) usually resulted in greater densities, whereas mowing usually resulted in lower densities. Our results suggest that departures from historical disturbance regimes (i.e. frequent fire and grazing) may render soils more susceptible to increased numbers of European earthworms, and that interactions between fire, aboveground biomass removal, and vegetation responses affect the structure and composition of invertebrate communities in tallgrass prairie soils.     

Assessing the effectiveness of conservation measures: Resolving the “wicked” problem of the Steller sea lion

“Wicked” problems are those that are complex and that change when solutions are applied. Many conflicts in conservation fall into this category. The study approached the problem of how to constrain the apparent wickedness of a problem in the conservation management of a species by using simple empirical indicators to carry out iterative assessment of the risk to a population and to document how this risk evolves in relation to the addition of new data and the implementation of management actions. Effects of high levels of uncertainty within data and also concerning population structure were examined through stochastic simulation and by exploration of scenarios. Historical trends in the example used, the Steller sea lion, showed rapid declines in abundance in some regions during the 1980s. The current total population is 130,000-150,000 Steller sea lions through Alaska and British Columbia and this number has been stable since about 1990 in spite of regional differences in population dynamics. Regional differences in the sequence of changes in the number of pups and non-pups, suggested that an internal re-distribution of juveniles could have happened between 1980 and 1990. Current productivity also appears close to the long-term mean. Stochastic population projection using various scenarios showed that, based upon this history, the risk of extinction for the population has declined and is below reasonable thresholds for considering the population to be endangered. The trends in risk suggest that management actions taken since 1990 have probably been effective. Consequently, the conservation management objectives for the Steller sea lion are probably being met. The approach provides a mechanism, based upon experience and scenario analysis, for exploring future policy options and may help to constrain the debate amongst stakeholders about the cost-benefit trade-offs associated with different options.     

Soil-profile distribution of primary and secondary plant-available nutrients under conventional and no tillage

Nutrient distributions under no tillage (NT) compared with conventional disk-and-bed tillage (CT) management in the warm, humid region of the southeastern USA need to be assessed so that future placement, quantity, and type of fertilizers can be altered, if necessary, to efficiently match crop demands. We determined soil-profile distributions of pH, N, P, S, K, Ca, Mg, Na, Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu to a depth of 0.9 m at the end of 8.5 years of continuous CT and NT management on a Weswood silty clay loam (fine, mixed, thermic Fluventic Ustochrept) in southcentral Texas. Most dramatic changes occurred within the 0–0.05 m depth, where soil under NT had lower pH, Fe, and Cu than under CT, but greater P, K, Zn, and Mn. Greater P and K under NT than under CT also occurred below the till-zone (0.15–0.3 m). At a depth of 0–0.3 m, soil under NT contained greater amounts of extractable P, K, Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu than under CT. Nitrogen fertilization had little effect on nutrient distributions, except resulting in greater extractable K at 0–0.05 m and greater nitrate at 0–0.15 m. Few changes in soil-profile distributions were observed for extractable S, Ca, Mg, and Na. Long-term continuous use of NT on this fine-textured, high-fertility (except for N) soil had no apparent adverse effects on nutrient distributions relative to CT, but enhanced conservation and availability of P, K, Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu near the soil surface where crop roots proliferate.
