Metal uptake in maize, willows and poplars on impoldered and freshwater tidal marshes in the Scheldt estuary 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Foliar Cd and Zn concentrations in Salix, Populus and Zea mays grown on freshwater tidal marshes were assessed. Soil metal concentrations were elevated, averaging 9.7 mg Cd kg?1 dry soil, 1100 mg Zn kg?1 dry soil and 152 mg Cr kg?1 dry soil. Cd (1.1–13.7 mg kg?1) and Zn (192–1140 mg kg?1) concentrations in willows and poplars were markedly higher than in maize on impoldered tidal marshes (0.8–4.8 mg Cd kg?1 and 155–255 mg Zn kg?1). Foliar samples of maize were collected on 90 plots on alluvial and sediment‐derived soils with variable degree of soil pollution. For soil Cd concentrations exceeding 7 mg Cd kg?1 dry soil, there was a 50% probability that maize leaf concentrations exceeded public health standards for animal fodder. It was shown that analysis of foliar samples of maize taken in August can be used to predict foliar metal concentrations at harvest. These findings can therefore contribute to anticipating potential hazards arising from maize cultivation on soils with elevated metal contents. 相似文献

We assessed cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) availability when applying reactive phosphate rock (RPR) in combination with lime and chicken manure on Indonesian acidic upland soils. Maize plants were grown on unamended soil and soils treated with several combinations of 2 tons dolomite ha–1, 2 tons of chicken manure ha–1, 1 ton ha–1 of RPRL (reactive phosphate rock containing 4 mg Cd kg–1 and 224 mg Zn kg–1), and 1 ton ha–1 of RPRH (RPR containing 69 mg Cd kg–1 and 745 mg Zn kg–1). In addition to its positive effect on plant yield, application of RPR in combination with chicken manure did not result in toxic Cd concentrations. Although liming is effective to reduce plant Cd concentrations, it results in more soil Cd accumulation and more plant Zn deficiency. Cadmium and Zn concentrations in shoots and grains can be predicted well from amounts extracted from the soil by 0.5 M ammonium (NH4) acetate + 0.02 M ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) at pH 4.65. 相似文献

A pot experiment was conducted to study the contribution of reactive phosphate rocks (RPRs) on the accumulation of Cd and Zn in 10 acid upland soils in Indonesia and shoots of Zea mays plants grown on these soils. Two types of RPR were used at a rate of 0.5 g (kg soil)–1: RPRL containing 4 mg Cd kg–1 and 224 mg Zn kg–1, and RPRH containing 69 mg Cd kg–1 and 745 mg Zn kg–1. Zea mays was harvested at 6 weeks after planting. The application of RPRH significantly increased the concentrations of Cd in the shoots. The application of this RPR also increased the amount of Cd which could be extracted by 0.5 M NH4‐acetate + 0.02 M EDTA pH 4.65 from the soils. More than 90% of the added Cd remained in the soil. As Zn is an essential element and the studied acid upland soils are Zn‐deficient, increased plant growth upon RPR application might be partly attributed to Zn present in the phosphate rock. However, more experiments are needed to confirm this hypothesis. The Cd and Zn concentrations and CEC of the soils were important soil factors influencing the concentrations of Cd and Zn in the shoots of maize plants grown on these soils. 相似文献

The bioavailability and plant uptake of heavy metals (HM), as well as finding the most reliable methods for the prediction of availability, continues to be one of the most crucial problems in agricultural and environmental studies. In agricultural soils from two regions in Kosovo, known for its metal pollution, we collected 60 soil and plant samples (wheat, corn, potatoes, and grass). Heavy metals were extracted from soil with aqua regia (pseudototal concentration), NH4OAc‐EDTA (potential bioavailable), and NH4NO3 (mobile fraction), plant samples were digested with HNO3/H2O2 (microwave assisted extraction). The pseudo total content of Cd, Pb, and Zn showed high value in Mitrovice (mean: Cd–2.92, Pb–570.15, and Zn–522.86 mg kg?1), whereas in Drenas region Ni and Cr showed high value with a mean 258.54 and 203.22 mg kg?1. Also, the potential bioavailability and mobile form of these metals were increased in Mitrovice (mean: Cd–1.59, Pb–217.05, Zn–522.86 mg kg?1, respectively Cd–0.17, Pb–0.64, and Zn–15.45 mg kg?1), compared to Drenas. Cd and Pb were elevated in potato tubers (mean Cd–0.48 and Pb–0.85 mg kg?1). The TF was higher for micronutrients (Zn and Cu) than for non‐essential metals (Cd and Pb). Multiple regression analysis showed a good model for prediction of Cd, Pb and Zn content in plant with significance 99.9%, whereas this model was not significant for Cu, Cr, and Ni. Soil pH played a significant role in the content of Cd and Zn in wheat and potato plants. Clay content also showed significance in Cd concentration in wheat and potato plants, while carbon content was significant for Cd in grass plants, as well as for Zn in wheat and grass plants. 相似文献

Yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus L.) and narrow-leafed lupin (L. angustifolius L.) are grown as grain legumes in rotation with spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) on acidic sandy soils of south-western Australia. Yellow lupin can accumulate significantly larger cadmium (Cd) concentrations in grain than narrow-leafed lupin. A glasshouse experiment was undertaken to test whether adding increasing zinc (Zn) levels to soil increased Zn uptake by yellow lupin reducing accumulation of Cd in yellow lupin grain. Two cultivars of yellow lupin (cv. ‘Motiv’ and ‘Teo’) and 1 cultivar of narrow-leafed lupin (cv. ‘Gungurru’) were used. The soil was Zn deficient for grain production of both yellow and narrow-leafed lupin, but had low levels of native soil Cd (total Cd <0.05 mg kg?1) so 1.6 mg Cd pot?1, as a solution of cadmium chloride (CdCl2·H2O), was added and mixed through the soil. Eight Zn levels (0–3.2 mg Zn pot?1), as solutions of zinc sulfate (ZnSO4·7H2O), were added and evenly mixed through the soil. Yellow lupin accumulated 0.16 mg Cd kg?1 in grain when no Zn was applied, which decreased as increasing Zn levels were applied to soil, with ~0.06 mg Cd kg?1 in grain when the largest level of Zn (3.2 mg Zn pot?1) was applied. Low Cd concentrations (<0.016 mg Cd kg?1) were measured in narrow-leafed lupin grain regardless of the Zn treatment. When no Zn was applied, yellow lupin produced ~2.3 times more grain than narrow-leafed lupin, indicating yellow lupin was better at acquiring and using indigenous Zn from soil for grain production. Yellow lupin required about half as much applied Zn as narrow-leafed lupin to produce 90% of the maximum grain yield, ~0.8 mg pot?1 Zn compared with ~1.5 mg Zn pot?1. Zn concentration in whole shoots of young plants (eight leaf growth stage) related to 90% of the maximum grain yield (critical prognostic concentration) was (mg Zn kg?1) 25 for both yellow lupin cultivars and 19 for the narrow-leafed lupin cultivar. Critical Zn concentration in grain related to 90% of maximum grain yield was (mg Zn kg?1) 24 for both yellow lupin cultivars compared with 20 for the narrow-leafed lupin cultivar. 相似文献

Slow immobilization of trace metals in soil, termed ‘fixation’, affects their natural attenuation but it is still unclear which reactions occur. Twenty‐eight soils were selected to assess the role of Fe oxides and carbonates on fixation of Cu, Cd, Zn and Ni. Soils included samples from 2 toposequences (Vietnam, Spain) and 13 European topsoils with different soil characteristics (pH 3.4–7.7). Samples were amended with 250 mg Zn kg−1, 100 mg Cu kg−1, 80 mg Ni kg−1 and 2.5 mg Cd kg−1 as metal salts and incubated for 850 days. Fixation was measured as the increase of the fraction of added metals that were not isotopically exchangeable. Fixation increased with time and was, averaged over all the soils, 43% (Cu), 41% (Zn), 41% (Ni) and 28% (Cd) after 850 days. Metal fixation within samples from each toposequence was generally positively related to total Fe oxide concentration (Fed) for Zn, Ni and Cd. However, the fixation of Cd, Zn and Ni was mainly explained by pH and not by Fed when considering all soils. Fixation of Zn and Cd in soils with pH >7.0 increased with increasing concentrations of carbonates at initial ageing times. Fixed fractions of Zn, Ni and Cd were significantly released when experimentally removing 50% of carbonates by acidification. Fixation of Cu was most poorly related to soil properties. Our data suggest that fixation of Cd, Zn and Ni is related to a pH‐dependent diffusion into oxides and that of Cd and Zn also to diffusion and/or coprecipitation in carbonates. Fixation of Ni at neutral pH may also be related to stabilization of precipitates that form readily in soil. 相似文献

Woody plant species that produce high biomass have been proposed for use in phytoremediation technology. We investigated the accumulation of cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) in Salix babylonica, S. caprea, S. dasyclados, S. matsudana × alba, S. purpurea, S. smithiana, Populus tremula, and P. nigra clones grown in a pot experiment on a Calcaric and a Eutric Cambisol (pH 7.2 and 6.4) of different levels of contamination (total metal concentrations in mg kg–1 in soil A: 32.7 Cd, 1760 Zn; soil B: 4.34 Cd, 220 Zn). Generally, the tested clones tolerated large metal concentrations in soils and had larger Cd and Zn concentrations in leaves compared to the roots. The largest Cd concentrations in leaves were found in two clones of S. smithiana (440 mg kg–1 on soil A; 70 mg kg–1 on soil B). One of the S. smithiana clones had also the largest Zn concentrations (870 mg kg–1) on soil B but accumulated slightly less Zn than a S. matsudana × alba clone (2430 mg kg–1) on soil A. The Cd concentrations in leaves of both S. smithiana clones on soil A are the largest ever reported for soil‐grown willows. The bioconcentration factors of the best performing clone reached 15.9 for Cd and 3.93 for Zn on the less contaminated soil B. Also based on the metal contents in leaves, this clone was identified as the most promising for phytoextraction. The metal concentrations in leaves observed in the pot experiment do not reflect those found in a previous hydroponic study and the leaf‐to‐root ratios are clearly underestimated in hydroponic conditions. This demonstrates the need for testing candidates for phytoextraction crops on soils rather than in hydroponics. Our data also show that the phytoextraction potential should be tested on different soils to avoid misleading conclusions. 相似文献

Response of lettuce and rhizosphere biota to successive addition of zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) was assessed in a pot experiment using limed and unlimed tropical Entisol. Cadmium (2.5 mg kg?1 soil) and Zn (50 mg kg?1 soil) were spiked to soil 1 month after germination, and successive applications were superimposed as 5 and 10 times the first dose. Plants were analyzed for metal uptake and mycorrhizal colonization 1 week after each metal application. Rhizosphere soils were assessed for extractable Zn and Cd as well as populations of bacteria, fungi, and metal-tolerant fungi. The greatest metal doses resulted in 84–88 mg Zn and 8–10 mg Cd kg?1 soil and 5–7.5 mg Cd and 70–72 mg Zn kg?1 dry matter. Metal-tolerant fungi population increased from 9–13% to 26–63%, but mycorrhizal colonization and bacterial population were inhibited by 88% and 96%, respectively. Liming had relieved metal stress on rhizosphere biota but did not affect metal uptake. 相似文献

Effect of elevated concentrations of Cd and Zn in soil on spring wheat yield and the metal contents of the plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of increasing concentrations of Cd and Zn in a sandy soil on spring wheat (Triticum vulgare L.) yields and the metal contents of the plants was examined in a pot experiment to establish critical levels of these metals in soil. The metals were added (individually and jointly) to the soil as sulfates in the following doses (in μg g?1, dry wt.): Cd — 2, 3, 5,10, 15, 25, and 50; Zn ?200, 300, 500, 1000, 1500, 2500, and 5000. Cadmium added to soil did not affect yields of wheat. The Zn dose of 1000 μg g?1 strongly reduced crop yields; at 1500 μg g? Zn dose wheat did not produce grain. The metal contents of wheat increased with increasing concentrations of Cd and Zn in soil up to 10.3 and 1587 μ g? of Cd and Zn in straw, respectively. The concentrations of both metals were higher in straw than in grain by factors of 3–7 and 1.5–2 for Zn and Cd, respectively. The relationships between Cd and Zn contents of the plants and soils were best expressed by exponential equations. High concentrations of Zn in soils (1042 and 1542 μg g?1) enhanced uptake of Cd by plants. The tested threshold concentrations of the metals in soils (3 μg g?1 for Cd and 200–300 μg g?1 for Zn) are safe for Zn but are too high for Cd in terms of protecting plants from excessive metal uptake. The critical Cd content of sandy soil should not exceed 1.5 μg g?. 相似文献

Chinese cabbage and surface soil samples (0–20 cm) from a periurban market garden in Yunnan Province (P.R. China) were collected to determine variations of cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) contents in Chinese cabbage and the influence of soil factors. Mean Cd content was 0.49 mg kg?1 dry materials (DM) in Chinese cabbage, ranging between 0.23 and 1.34 mg kg?1 DM (n = 21 samples). Mean Zn content was 51.2 mg kg?1 DM, ranging from 34.9 to 157.5 mg kg?1 DM (n = 21 samples). The soil factors best predicting Chinese cabbage Cd and Zn contents were total and available Cd and Zn contents and cation exchange capacity (CEC). Soil samples and corresponding Chinese cabbage samples were divided into two groups: soils with low pH (<6.5, n = 10) and soils with high pH (>6.5, n = 11). Positive correlation between CEC with pH > 6.5 and Cd and Zn contents in Chinese cabbage were observed. Available trace element contents and CEC explained 77% and 69% of variation of Cd and Zn contents in Chinese cabbage, respectively. AEC (enrichment coefficient related to trace element availability) and BCF (bioaccumulation factors) could be used to understand Cd and Zn accumulation in Chinese cabbage. 相似文献

The potential of Nostoc 9v for improving the nitrogen (N)2–fixing capacity and nutrient status of semi‐arid soils from Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and South Africa was studied in a laboratory experiment. Nostoc 9v was inoculated on nonsterilized and sterilized soils. Inoculum rates were 2.5 mg dry biomass g?1 soil and 5 mg dry biomass g?1 soil. The soils were incubated for 3 months at 27 °C under 22 W m2 illumination with a photoperiod of 16 h light and 8 h dark. The moisture was maintained at 60% of field capacity. In all soils, Nostoc 9v proliferated and colonized the soil surfaces very quickly and was tolerant to acidity and low nutrient availability. Cyanobacteria promoted soil N2 fixation and had a pronounced effect on total soil organic carbon (SOC), which increased by 30–100%. Total N also increased, but the enrichment was, in most soils, comparatively lower than for carbon (C). Nitrate and ammonium concentrations, in contrast, decreased in all the soils studied. Increases in the concentration of available macronutrients were produced in most soils and treatments, ranging from 3 to 20 mg phosphorus (P) kg?1 soil, from 5 to 58 mg potassium (K) kg?1 soil, from 4 to 285 mg calcium (Ca) kg?1, and from 12 to 90 mg magnesium (Mg) kg?1 soil. Positive effects on the levels of available manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) were also observed. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Effects of application of zinc (Zn) (0, 1, 5, 10 mg kg?1 soil) and phosphorus (P) (0, 10, 50, 100 mg kg?1 soil) on growth and cadmium (Cd) accumulations in shoots and roots of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings were investigated in a pot experiment. All soils were supplied with a constant concentration of Cd (6 mg kg?1 soil). Phosphorus application resulted in a pronounced increase in shoot and root biomass. Effects of Zn on plant growth were not as marked as those of P. High Zn (10 mg kg?1) decreased the biomass of both shoots and roots; this result may be ascribed to Zn toxicity. Phosphorus and Zn showed complicated interactions in uptake by plants within the ranges of P and Zn levels used. Cadmium in shoots decreased significantly with increasing Zn (P < 0.001) except at P addition of 10 mg kg?1. In contrast, root Cd concentrations increased significantly except at Zn addition of 5 mg kg?1 (P < 0.001). These results indicated that Zn might inhibit Cd translocation from roots to shoots. Cadmium concentrations increased in shoots (P < 0.001) but decreased in roots (P < 0.001) with increasing P supply. The interactions between Zn and P had a significant effect on Cd accumulation in both shoots (p = 0.002) and roots (P < 0.001). 相似文献

Cd accumulation in the grain of wheat cultivars grown on soils at seven experimental sites in the Austrian wheat zone was significantly affected by soil chemical characteristics and by cultivar. Multiple linear regression analyses indicate that about 80% of the variation in Cd accumulation may be explained by cultivar. total soil Cd, and organic carbon (OC). An additional 10% of the variation was correlated with Cl? and Ca2+ in the soil solution. Uptake of Cd increased with higher soil Cd content and higher Cl? concentrations in soil solution, but decreased at higher levels of OC and soluble Ca. Cd accumulation varied by a factor of up to 2.5 among cultivars. The highest Cd accumulation was found in some spring durum cultivars in soils containing relatively low total Cd (< 0.4 mg kg?1); at some sites the maximum permissible Cd concentrations in wheat grain (0.1 mg kg?1) was exceeded according to German regulations. Selecting low Cd-accumulating cultivars and adjusting soil chemical conditions may provide alternatives to reduce Cd intake in human diet. 相似文献

Phosphorus (P) adsorbed by iron (Fe) oxyhydroxides in soil can be released when the Fe(III) minerals are reductively dissolved after soil flooding. However, this release is limited in tropical soils with large Fe contents and previous studies have suggested that P sorbs or precipitates with newly formed Fe(II) minerals. This hypothesis is tested here by scavenging Fe2+ in flooded soils by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of soil through resin application (30 cmolc kg?1; Na‐form). Three soils from rice paddies with contrasting properties were incubated in aerobic and anaerobic conditions with or without resin and with or without addition of organic matter (OM) to stimulate redox reactions. Dissolved Fe was 0.1–1.1 mm in unamended anaerobic soils and decreased to less than 0.07 mm with resin addition. Anaerobic soils without resin and aerobic soils with or without resin had marginal available P concentrations (<2 mg P kg?1; anion‐exchange membrane P). In contrast, available P increased 3‐ to 14‐fold in anaerobic soils treated with resins, reaching 16 mg P kg?1 in combination with extra OM. Application of Ca‐forms of resin did not stimulate P availability and dissolved Ca concentrations were larger than in unamended soils. Resin addition can increase P availability, probably by a combination of reducing solution Fe2+ (thereby limiting the formation of Fe(II) minerals) and increasing the OM solubility and availability through reducing dissolved Ca2+. The soil CEC is a factor controlling the net P release in submerged soils. 相似文献

Currently wood ash is being used as a soil amendment. Its use is regulated based on trace element content. However, no published information exists on solubilities of trace elements in wood ash. We investigated the release of environmentally-significant trace elements (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn) from wood ash as a function of pH and of particle size. Wood ash was sampled from three sources in Maine and sieved into <0.5 mm, 0.5–1 mm, and 1–2 mm fractions. Elemental compositions were determined using a HNO3/H2O2 digestion. Sub-samples (1 g) from each of the nine samples (three sources and three size fractions) were reacted with 50 mLs of standardized HNO3 for a week using a range of acid concentrations (0.01–0.25 M) to achieve a range in final pH values. The resulting solutions were filtered and analyzed. The compositions of the three wood ashes varied widely. The dominant elements were Si (9.7–34%), Ca (5.8–21%), K (0.8–5.7%), Al (0.8–4.9%), and Mg (0.5–3.0%). Trace elements were present in the following concentrations ranges: Cd (1.9–12 mg kg?1), Cr (24–92 mg kg?1), Cu (33–75 mg kg?1), and Zn (130–1400 mg kg?1). Both Cd and Zn were released readily from the ashes at final pH values of approximately 6.5 and below. In the final pH range of 3–4, 80–100% of the total Cd and 70–90% of the total Zn was released by the ashes. All three wood ashes showed somewhat different patterns of Cr release. Level of Cr(VI) in a water extract of the ash fractions was found to be a much better predictor of relative Cr solubility than total Cr. Solubility of Cu was low, and Pb was very insoluble. There was little influence of particle size on release of trace elements. The relatively high Cd concentration of wood ash compared with soil, and its relative solubility in wood ash, should be considered in evaluating the potential environmental impact of spreading wood ash on land. 相似文献

Abstract Heavy‐metal inhibition of nitrification in soils treated with reformulated nitrapyrin was investigated. Clarion and Okoboji soils were treated with ammonium sulfate [(NH4)2SO4] and a nitrification inhibitor. Copper(II) (Cu), Zinc(II) (Zn), Cadmium(II) (Cd), or Lead(II) (Pb) were added to each soil. A first‐order equation was used to calculate the maximum nitrification rate (K max), duration of lag period (t′), period of maximum nitrification (Δt), and the termination period of nitrification (t s). In the Clarion soil, the K max decreased from 12 mg kg?1 d?1 without the nitrification inhibitor to 4, 0.25, 0.86, and 0.27 mg kg?1 d?1, respectively, when the inhibitor and Cu, Zn, Pb, or Cd were applied. In the Okoboji soil, K max decreased from 22 mg kg?1 d?1 with no inhibitor to 6, 3, 4, and 2 mg kg?1 d?1, respectively, when an inhibitor and Cu, Zn, Pb, or Cd were added. The t′ varied from 8 to 25 d in the Clarion soil and from 5 to 25 d in the Okoboji soil, due to addition of Cu, Zn, Pb, or Cd and the inhibitor. 相似文献

High Cd and Ni concentrations in sandy soils were built up in a field experiment, receiving an unusually metal-polluted sewage sludge between 1976 and 1980, at Bordeaux, France. The study evaluates the availability of metals and their after effects on maize at one point in time, the 8th year following termination of sludge application (1988). Plant parts (leaves, stalks, roots, grains) and soil samples were collected from plots which received 0 (Control), 50 (S1) and 300 Mg sludge DW ha?1 (S2) as cumulative inputs. Dry-matter yield, plant metal concentrations, total, and extractable metals in soils were determined. Metal inputs resulted in a marked increase in total and extractable metals in soils, except for extractable Mn and Cu with either 0.1 N Ca(NO3)2 or 0.1 N CaCl2. Total metal contents in the metal-loaded topsoils (0–20 cm depth) were very often lower, especially for Cd, Zn, and Ni, than the expected values. Explanation was partly given by the increases of metal contents below the plow layer, particularly for Cd at the low metal loading rate, and for Cd, Ni, and Cu at the high one (Gomez et al., 1992). In a control plot beside a highly metal- polluted plot, Cd, Zn, and Ni concentration in soil increased whereas the concentration of other metals was unchanged; lateral movement, especially with soil water, is plausible. Yield of leaves for plants from the S2 plot was reduced by 27%, but no toxicity symptoms developed on shoots. Yields of stalks for plants in both sludge-treated plots numerically were less than the controls but the decrease was not statistically significant. Cd and Ni concentrations increased in all plant parts with metal loading rate while Mn concentrations decreased. Leaf Cd concentration in plants from sludge-treated plots (i.e. 44 and 69 mg Cd kg?1 DM for S1 and S2) was above its upper critical level (i.e. dry matter yield reduced by 10%: 25μg Cd g?1 DM in corn leaves, Macnicol and Beckett, 1985). Yield reduction at the high metal-loading rate was probably due to 3 main factors: Mn deficiency in leaves, the accumulation of Ni especially in roots, and the increase of Cd in leaves. The amount of metal taken up by plants from the control plot ranked in the following order (mole ha?1): Fe(22)? Mn(7)>Zn (5.6)?Cu (0.7), Ni (0.6), Cd (0.4). For sludge-treated plots, the order was (values for S1 and S2 in mole ha ?1): Fe (16, 15)>Zn (7.9, 7.7)>Ni (4.3, 4.7)>Cd (1.9, 2.1)>Cu (1.0,1.2), Mn (1.5, 1.1). Zn and Cd had the greatest offtake percent from the soil to the above ground plant parts. Cd or Ni uptake by maize were correlated with extractable metals by unbuffered salts (i.e. 0.1 N Ca(NO3)2 and 0.1 N CaCl2). It is concluded that part of the sludge-borne Cd and Ni can remain bioavailable in this sandy soil for a long period of time (e.g. 8 yr) after the termination of metal-polluted sludge application. 相似文献

A tri-state mining region, including parts of Missouri, Oklahoma, and Kansas, was the site of intense lead and zinc mining and smelting activity until the 1950's. A study was initiated to characterize the heavy-metal contamination of soils in this area. Water-soluble, an index of plantavailable, total, and sequentially extractable metals; organic, and total carbon; and saturated paste pH were determined for mine tailings and soil samples. Mine tailings contained 81 to 89 mg kg?1 total Cd, 1 150 to 1 370 mg kg?1 total Pb, and 11 400 to 13 700 mg kg?1 total Zn. Total concentrations in soil samples were 15 to 86 mg kg?1 Cd, 35 to 1 620 mg kg?1 Pb, and 99 to 18 500 mg kg?1 Zn; and, DTPA extractable concentrations ranged from 0.6 to 10 mg kg?1 Cd, 7.8 to 68 mg kg?1 Pb, and 33 to 715 mg kg?1 Zn. Samples were sequentially extracted to approximate the proportions of the metals in the sulfide, carbonate, organic, sorbed, and exchangeable fractions. For Zn and Cd, concentrations were greatest in the sulfide fraction followed by carbonate, organic, sorbed, and exchangeable. Lead followed the same pattern, except higher concentrations were observed in the sorbed than the organic fractions. 相似文献

Assessment of zinc (Zn) phytoavailability by the newly developed technique of diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) has started gaining more importance because of some advantages over routine soil extractants. A greenhouse study was conducted to determine Zn phytotoxicity thresholds and the phytoavailability of Zn to sorghum sudan (Sorghum vulgare var. sudanese) grass by DGT, compared with calcium chloride (CaCl2) extraction. Treatments were five Zn levels and two soil pH (6.5 and 6). To obtain various amounts of Zn phytoavailability, soils having two different pH values were amended with zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) at rates of 0, 150, 300, 600, and 1200 mg Zn kg?1. Control soil (pH = 6.5) was treated with predetermined elemental sulfur to create different soil pH values (6). Shoot and root Zn concentrations ranged from 27 to 827 mg kg?1 and 101 to 2858 mg kg?1, respectively. In general, the Zn concentrations in shoots and roots were increased by increasing Zn concentrations and soil pH. Increasing applied Zn to soil decreased the plant biomass yield and increased adsorption of Zn by DGT. Calcium (Ca) to Zn ratios for all treatments except controls were <26 for shoots and <13 for roots. The CaCl2‐extractable Zn and effective concentration (CE) correlated well with plant Zn concentration. A critical shoot Zn concentration for 90% of the control yield was chosen as an indicator of Zn toxicity. The performance of DGT, CaCl2 extraction, Ca/Zn ratio and plant Zn concentrations were similar for assessing Zn phytoavailability. 相似文献

Leaching of Cd and Zn in polluted acid, well‐drained soils is a critical pathway for groundwater pollution. Models predicting future groundwater contamination with these metals have rarely been validated at the field scale. Spodosol profiles (pH 3.2–4.5) were sampled in an unpolluted (reference) field and in a field contaminated with Cd and Zn through atmospheric deposition near a zinc smelter. Average metal concentrations in the upper horizons were 0.2 mg Cd kg?1 and 9 mg Zn kg?1 in the unpolluted field, and 0.8 mg Cd kg?1 and 71 mg Zn kg?1 in the contaminated field. Isotopic dilution was used to measure the labile concentration of Cd and Zn, and the metal transport was modelled using measured sorption parameters that describe the distribution between the labile metal pool (instead of the total metal pool) and the solution phase obtained by centrifugation. Solutions were also collected by wick samplers in two polluted and one unpolluted profile at a depth of 70 cm. Concentrations in these solutions were in the order of 15 µg Cd litre?1 and 0.8 mg Zn litre?1 for the polluted profiles, and 1 µg Cd litre?1 and 0.04 mg Zn litre?1 for the unpolluted profile. The concentrations in these solutions agreed well with those in soil solutions obtained by centrifugation, which supported the use of the local equilibrium assumption (LEA). Present‐day Cd profiles in the polluted field were calculated with the LEA, based on the emission history of the nearby smelter and taking spatial variability into account. Observed and predicted depth profiles agreed reasonably well, but total Cd concentrations in the topsoil were generally underestimated by the model. This may be attributed to the presence of non‐labile Cd in the atmospheric deposition, which was not accounted for in the retrospective modelling. The large concentrations of non‐labile Zn in the topsoil of the polluted field were also indicative that metals in the atmospheric deposition were (partly) in a sparingly soluble form, and that release of these non‐labile metals is a slow process. The presence of non‐labile metals should be taken into account when evaluating metal mobility or predicting their transport. 相似文献
