Laboratory mesocosm studies of Fe,Al, Mn,Ca, and Mg dynamics in wetlands exposed to synthetic acid coal mine drainage

To evaluate the potential for constructed wetlands to treat acid coal mine drainage, six model wetland mesocosms (each 2.4 m × 15 cm) were filled with Sphagnum peat (15 cm deep), planted either with cattails (Typha latifolia) and living Sphagnum, living Sphagnum only, or left as bare peat (2 mesocosms per treatment). The model wetlands were exposed to synthetic acid coal mine drainage (pH 3.5, concentrations of Fe²⁺, Al³⁺, Mn^2*, Ca²⁺, and Mg²⁺ of 78.8, 10.0, 5.2, 12.0, and 4.5 mg L^?1, respectively) at a rate of 90 mL min^?1, 6 hr d^?1, 5 d wk^?1, over a 16 week period. Chemical analysis of peat at periodic intervals indicated that the model wetlands were net sources of Al³⁺, Mn²⁺ Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺, but net sinks for Fe²⁺. Type of vegetation had no significant effect on Fe²⁺ retention; of the 204 g of Fe²⁺ added to the model wetland systems, 162 g were retained. Formation of Fe oxides accounted for 73 to 86% of the Fee' retention, with exchangeable Fe contributing 0.2 to 1.2%, organically bound Fe contributing 4 to 19%, and residual Fe contributing 7 to 15% of total Fee' retention. Fe retention was greatest at the inflow ends of the model wetlands where Fe retention appeared to reach saturation at a final Fe concentration in the peat of 235 mg g^?1. At the rate of application of the synthetic acid mine drainage, we estimated that the model wetland systems would have reached complete Fe saturation after 157 days. We suggest that the mesocosm approach could be useful in generating site-specific data that can be applied to the formulation of cost-benefit analyses that can compare a proposed wetland treatment system with alternative conventional chemical methods for treating acid mine drainage.     

Effects of HC1 acid and lime amendments on soil ph and extractable Ca and Mg in a sandy soil

Abstract

High vater table sandy soils present special problems when establishing soil pH variables under field conditions. In order to examine the response of a coarse‐textured soil to lime and HC1 acid treatments, data are reported for soil pH and extractable Ca and Mg for a field experiment where Mn treatments on soybeans was the primary objective. Three treatments included HC1 acid, control, and lime. Acid (742 liters/ha 3N HC1) was added only at the beginning of the experiment but dolomitic lime treatments were added each year (2240, 2740, and 2900 kg/ha). The lime and acid were applied to the soil surface and incorporated to a depth of 10 to 13 cm. Soil samples were taken every 2 to 3 months at 3 depths (0 to 15, 15 to 30, and 30 to 45 cm) and analyzed for pH and extractable Ca and Mg. Acid treatment decreased the pH by 0.2 units below the untreated soil at the 0 to 30 cm depth and the effect lasted the entire 3 years of the study. Calcium values were lowered only slightly by the acid treatment. Lime additions caused steady increases in soil Ca. Magnesium values increased several months after each of the first and second lime applications. Lime raised the subsoil (30 to 45 cm) pH after 4 to 6 months. Seasonal variations in pH were very wide with the untreated soil pH varying from 6.1 to 6.8. The high pH level of 7.0 was not maintained for an entire season until the third year of the experiment. Soil pH as well as extractable Ca and Mg showed fluctuations that were the result of seasonal variations and soil moisture content at the time of sampling. Soil pH variables on a sandy soil should be established at least a year in advance of starting an experiment and must be closely monitored in order to maintain the desired pH levels.     

Baseline of Ca,Mg, Fe,Mn and Al Concentrations in Catatumbo River Surficial Sediments

Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn and Al were determined in surficial sediment samples from Catatumbo River (including sediments from major tributaries) a binational basin shared by both Venezuela and Colombia in approximately 30% and 70%, respectively. The global mean concentration of the metals was Al > Fe > Mg > Ca > Mn (0.376; 0.304; 0.063; 0.042; 5.9 × 10^-4 mmol g^-1 dry weight). The objectives of this investigation were (1) to establish metal-concentration baselines, and (2) to determine spatial distribution of Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn and Al concentrations, in bed sediment samples from Catatumbo River (including sediments from major tributaries). As Catatumbo River is the main tributary to Lake Maracaibo system (South America's largest inland lake), its impact on the eutrophication process of Lake Maracaibo due to the formation of metal/phosphorus complexes is discussed.

不同磷水平对红壤溶液中锰、铝、镁和钙浓度变化以及小麦生长的影响

为了探明不同磷水平对红壤中土壤溶液主要金属离子变化的影响以及小麦对磷的响应,确定红壤中小麦适宜的施磷水平,采用原位提取土壤溶液和比较生物量的方法,监测了短期内红壤溶液中主要金属离子浓度变化及小麦生物量的变化。结果表明:碳酸钙的加入可以显著升高酸性红壤的p H,土壤溶液中铝、锰和镁浓度显著低于未加碳酸钙处理;800 mg/kg磷处理后铝、锰、镁和钙的浓度要比未加磷处理分别至少降低47%、44%、37%和33%。随着施磷量的增加,小麦在200 mg/kg磷处理时积累的生物量最大,随后磷增加,小麦生物量反而降低。而加碳酸钙处理小麦地下部生物量随着施磷量增加则降低。结果表明碳酸钙不仅可以有效升高土壤p H,降低土壤溶液铝浓度,还降低土壤溶液中锰的浓度。磷的加入同样可以降低锰和铝的浓度,缓解铝和锰毒害。红壤中生长小麦的适宜施磷量为200 mg/kg。     

Soil Ca, Al, acidity and penetration resistance with subsoiling, lime and gypsum treatments

Abstract. Crop growth on strongly weathered soils is often limited by soil compaction in addition to aluminium toxicity and/or calcium deficiency. This study examines the effects of subsoiling, lime and gypsum on penetrometer resistance, acidity, aluminium and calcium levels and cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.) root growth on soils transitional between Cecil and Appling series (clayey, kaolinitic, thermic Typic Hapludults) in the Piedmont region of Georgia, USA. The main plots were subsoiled to depths of 0.35 or 0.80 m or untreated. Dolomitic limestone (0 or 4.03 t per hectare on subplots) and phosphogypsum (0 or 10 t per hectare on sub-subplots) were incorporated into the surface soil (0.15 m). Deep subsoiling (0.80 m depth) decreased penetrometer resistance at 0.3–0.5 m depth and increased yield in two of three years, but there was no response to shallow subsoiling (0.35 m depth). Lime increased yield when surface soil water pH prior to amendment was less than a Cate-Nelson critical value of 4.6. Gypsum moved downward much more rapidly than lime, increasing soil solution calcium ion activity to a depth of 0.8 m within 5 months of application. There were differences in clay content between replicate plots and calcium movement was faster where the clay content was less. Yield responses to gypsum in 1986 were attributed to increased root growth below 0.2 m resulting from the increased calcium ion activity. Yield response to gypsum in limed sub-subplots was significant only in 1986.     

Laboratory studies on pteridophyte breakdown by a soil mite

Twenty six species of pteridophytes (ferns and fern allies) were offered to the soil mite Rhizoglyphus robini Claparède (Acari: Astigmata: Acaridae) in Petri dishes. All plants provided nutrients and promoted growth of mite populations. Leaves of sixteen (61.5%) species were totally consumed or skeletonized while green, another seven only upon browning. The remaining three were left intact even after 3 months, although sori and their leachates provided food for the mites. Paper impregnated with pteridophyte leachates was consumed and encouraged mite reproduction. These findings neither support nor oppose the view that pteridophytes are under-utilized by arthropods but the adaptability of the specific experimental organism might have affected the results. Invertebrates feeding on dead, decomposing pteridophytes possibly reduce the latters' allelopathy to other plants. The ability of Rhizoglyphus to subsist on plant leachates, as well as bacteria or fungi developing thereon, could explain the mode of survival of this and other soil arthropods in deep, mineral soil strata.     

Tillage,lime, and poultry litter effects on soil zinc,manganese, and copper

Abstract

Long‐term no‐tillage has profound effects on soil properties which can affect the availability of plant nutrient elements. The objectives were to study the effects of tillage and lime treatments on soil pH and extractable soil micronutrients where poultry litter was used as a nitrogen (N) source. Surface soil samples were taken in the spring and fall for two years from a long‐term tillage experiment that had been in place for nine years. There were two tillage treatments [conventional (CT) and no‐tillage (NT)] and six lime/ gypsum treatments (control, 8,960 kg gypsum ha^‐1 every fourth year, 4,480 kg lime ha^‐1 every fourth year, and three treatments of 8,960 kg lime ha^‐1 in a four‐year period divided by application times into 1, 2, and 4 treatments per year). Poultry litter was applied each year of the two‐year experiment at a rate of 8.96 Mg ha^‐1 on a dry weight basis. The crop was corn (Zea maize L.). Soil samples were analyzed for pH and Mehlich‐1 zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and copper (Cu). Soil pH was higher for NT than CT and was higher in the spring than in the fall. Lime rates resulted in soil pH increases, but showed less difference for CT than NT. The three 8,960 kg ha^‐1 per four yr treatments caused an interaction in that for CT the pH increased more for 2,240 kg ha^‐1each year than for 8,960 kg ha^‐1 every fourth year and the opposite was true for NT. Extractable Zn, Mn, and Cu all responded to this interaction being lower for the higher pH plots. Extractable Zn was higher for NT possibly due to high Zn from the poultry litter and non‐incorporation for NT. Extractable Cu was lower for NT as expected from the soil pH, whereas extractable Mn was not affected by tillage. Extractable Zn and Cu both increased over time due to inputs from the poultry litter. Neither extractable Zn nor Mn responded to increasing lime rates, however Cu decreased with increasing lime rate. Extractable Cu was influenced mainly by soil pH differences due to tillage and lime. Extractable Zn was influenced much more by tillage and from inputs by the poultry litter and not as much by pH differences. Extractable Mn was the least responsive to tillage and lime treatments of the three micronutrients studied.     

A comparison of methods for measuring extractable Ca,Mg, K,Na, Mn,Al, Fe,and P from New England forest soils

Abstract

An experiment was designed to evaluate several of the commonly used extractants and methods for determining “available”; elements in soils. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the suitability of these extraction procedures for use on forest soils typical for New England commercial forests. The extraction procedures selected included NH₄OAc pH 4.8, NH₄OAc pH 7.0, NH₄Cl, Double Acid, Bray, and Mehlich methods. The elements measured varied somewhat by procedure but included the base cations, Al, Fe, Mn, and P. As a bioassay of element availability, a greenhouse study was conducted using six forest soil materials from different horizon types (i.e. O, Ap, B) and three conifer seedling species (red spruce, balsam fir, and white pine). Relatively small differences among extraction procedures were found among the methods used for exchangeable Ca, Mg, K, and Na. Large differences, however, were found among the different horizon types in the amount of exchangeable base cations present. In contrast, significant differences were found among extraction procedures for Al, Fe, Mn, and P depending on the degree of buffering and acidity of the extracting solution. Of the elements measured in this study, only P appeared to be growth limiting with the NH₄OAc pH 4.8 being best correlated with P uptake by seedlings. Further work under field conditions over longer time periods is required to evaluate these methods for measuring P availability in forest soils     

Effect of ammonium fertilizer on NH3 loss and Ca,Mg, ammonium and nitrate content in a calcareous soil solution

Summary This study examined the effects of NH _inf4 ⁺ fertilizers [(NH₄)₂SO₄, (NH₄)₂HPO₄, CO(NH₂)₂, NH₄OH, and NH₄NO₃] on NH₃ loss and the quantity of Ca + Mg, NH _inf4 ⁺ and NO _inf3 ^sup– in the solution of a calcareous soil (Harkey sicl, Typic Torrifluvent). Various NH₄ fertilizers applied at a depth of 5 cm in the soil produced differing NH₃ loss characteristics. Applying (NH₄)₂SO₄ (AS) resulted in high volatile NH₃ losses as compared with NH₄OH (AH) and (NH₄)₂CO₃ (AC). The AS treatment formed an equal molar amount of CaSO₄, which increased the mobility of ammonium, while AH and AC treatments caused Ca precipitation and decreased ammonium mobility. Leaching the AS system before NH₃ loss could occur resulted in the most rapid nitrification rate. Lower nitrification rates were found with AH and AC than AS under the same conditions. Surface placement of NH₄ fertilizers resulted in variable leachate contents of Ca + Mg. Ammonium sulfate reacted with CaCO₃ either to solubilize some Ca + Mg or simply to replace exchangeable Ca + Mg with NH₄, while AH, AC, and (NH₄)₂HPO₄ (DAP) precipitated essentially an equivalent molar amount of soluble and adsorbed Ca + Mg. Use of NH₄NO₃, which does not form an insoluble calcium precipitate, resulted in the leaching of an equivalent molar amount of exchangeable Ca + Mg from the Harkey soil.The authors are Professor and former laboratory technician, respectively, at Texas A&M Research Center at El Paso, 1380 A&M Circle, El Paso, TX 79927, USA     

Variation of N,P, K,Ca, Mg,Mn, Zn,and al in slash pine foliage

Abstract

The seasonal patterns of foliage nutrient concentrations and contents were monitored for two growing seasons in an 11‐year—old Pinus el1iottii stand. In the first growing season after needle initiation, N, P, K, Mg, and Zn concentrations decreased, but this was followed by an increase in the fall and winter months. Another drop in concentration of all elements, except P, occurred in the second growing season. Decreases in total contents indicated that this drop was a result of translocation to other tissues. In contrast to the mobile elements, the concentration and fascicle contents of Ca, Mn, and Al increased with aging of the needles.

Between‐tree variability was least for N, P, and Zn and the N, K, Mg, Mn, and Zn in the current foliage had consistently lower variation than that in the 1‐year‐old foliage. Between‐tree variation for K was lower in the winter than the spring.

For pine foliage, recommended sampling period for N, P, Mg, and Zn is mid to late summer and for the other elements it is late fall to late winter.

There are several sources of variation that influence the level of nutrients in tree foliage. The most important of these, apart from the tree nutrient status, are seasonal fluctuations, variation between trees, and age of needles . Smaller sources of variation are associated with position of the needles within the crown, diurnal changes, year to year variation, and analytical errors^1,2. These variables must be studied in order to develop suitable sampling techniques and in Pinus this has been undertaken for P. banksiana ¹, P. taeda ³, P. strobus ⁴, P. resinosa ⁴, P. sylvestris ⁵, and P. radiata ^6,7. However, foliage sampling has not been studied in detail for slash pine (Pinus elliottii Englem var. elliottii) and earlier studies with other pines have been largely confined to temperate or cool climates.

This study reports the variation in elemental concentrations with season, age of foliage, and between slash pine trees growing in a subtropical climate in Florida.     

酸性水稻土上水稻对硅、钾、钙、镁的吸收及其动力学研究

运用盆栽试验研究了南方稻区酸性水稻土上增施硅(Si)、钾(K)、钙(Ca)、镁(Mg)肥对水稻产量的影响及其水稻对Si、K、Ca、Mg的吸收。结果表明,在酸性水稻土上增施Si、K、Ca、Mg肥及其配合施用均具有显著的增产效益,能明显地提高水稻对该种元素吸收速率和总吸收量。施Si肥主要是增加了水稻后期对Si的吸收,使水稻成熟期能保持较高的Si含量;施用K肥使水稻在移栽后能较长时间内保持较高的K吸收速率;施Ca、Mg肥能使水稻保持较高的Ca吸收速率;K和Ca之间存在不同程度的交互作用。扩散方程、Elovich方程和多项式方程均能很好地描述水稻生长期内水稻对Si、K、Ca、Mg的吸收过程。可用扩散方程和Elovich方程的参数b值来评价水稻对Si、K、Ca、Mg吸收速率。     

灌水、石灰和镁肥水平对玉米干物质积累和镁素利用的影响

研究了2种灌水水平、3种石灰水平和3种镁肥水平对玉米干物质积累及镁(Mg)素利用的影响。结果表明,灌水能提高玉米干物质积累和玉米对Mg的吸收;施用石灰不明显影响玉米干物质积累,但降低玉米对Mg的吸收,增加土壤对Mg的固定,对Mg肥表观有效率的影响因施用量不同而有所不同。施用Mg肥在一定程度上提高玉米干物质积累,明显增加Mg的吸收和土壤交换性Mg含量。因此玉米对Mg的吸收利用不仅受到土壤Mg供应水平的制约,而且也受到灌水、施用石灰等因素的影响。

Effect of lime,P, and Mg on growth and elemental concentrations of mugwort

Abstract

There is evidence that mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris L.) may have potential for use as a livestock forage. This study was undertaken to determine mugwort growth response to lime, P, and Mg, and their effect on elemental concentration of plant material.

Factorial combinations of 0, 5.6, and 11.2 mt lime/ha; 0, 112, and 224 kg P/ha; and 0, 224, and 448 kg Mg/ha were applied to low pH soil in greenhouse pots and planted to mugwort. In the absence of lime and Mg, growth was very poor. Lime was the most effective treatment in promoting mugwort growth. Growth response to Mg was greatest in the absence of lime, and response to P was dependent on lime and/or Mg application. Macronutrient concentrations of mugwort plants were considered adequate for use as forage for non‐lactating beef cows. Concentrations of several of the micronutrients were very high, especially at low lime and Mg. Copper was high at all treatments.

Soil ecological study on dynamics of K,Mg, and Ca,and soil acidity in shifting cultivation in Northern Thailand

Abstract

Soil degradation caused by excessive land use is presently one of the major constraints on sustainable agriculture in the mountainous area of northern Thailand. In order to obtain basic information about soil fertility problems involved in the transition from traditional shifting cultivation to more intensive upland farming, the dynamics of K, Mg, and Ca, and soil acidity in the farming systems of both Karen and Hmong/Thai peoples were investigated. In the fields that lay fallow for more than 5 y, the soils were highly acidic and poor in exchangeable bases, mainly due to the fact that the fallow vegetation rapidly absorbed inorganic bases (K, Mg, and Ca) in the soils. In the fields both under fallow and cropping within 3 y after the slash and burn practice, the high acidity observed in the soils at the fallow stage seemed to be alleviated by ash input with high alkalinity. The aboveground biomass ranged from 9 to 10 t ha^?1 in the 8 y fallow field and the sum of inorganic bases and alkalinity, which were expected to be added to the soils with ash input, ranged from 3 to 4 kmol( + ) ha^?1 or kmol(-) ha^?1 , respectively. In the fields under continuous cultivation for more than 4 y after the slash and burn practice, the subsoils showed a more acidic nature than in the fields immediately after burning. Judging from the high concentrations of inorganic bases in the soil solution from the subsoils, the decrease of the content of exchangeable bases and resulting soil acidification might have proceeded through leaching loss of these bases. Among the exchangeable bases in the soils, Ca and Mg were generally predominant and K occurred as trace. Comparison of the total contents of the bases with the contents of exchangeable ones showed that most of Ca occurred in an exchangeable form while most of K and Mg occurred in the nonexchangeable forms in the soils. Therefore, Ca was likely to be readily depleted along with soil acidification in continuous cultivation.     

Nitrogen transformations in copper-contaminated soils and effects of lime and compost application on soil resiliency

 A neutral and an acidic soil were treated with different doses (0–3,000 mg Cu kg^–1 soil as CuSO₄) of copper. The percentages of inhibition of nitrification in both soils varied from 5 to 97%, but for the N mineralization these percentages varied from 8 to 65%. The toxic effect of Cu for basal nitrification and N mineralization was assessed as critical. Nitrification was more sensitive than ammonification to copper toxicity. It appears that an ecological dose of inhibition for nitrification and N mineralization higher than 10% is suitable as an indicator for Cu contamination. Soil resiliency assessed by N mineralization in the lime treatments varied from 11 to 154% in the sandy soil and from 70 to 168% in the sandy loam soil. A combined application of lime and compost significantly increased soil resiliency. The percentage increase varied from 904 to 1,390% in the sandy soil and from 767 to 2,230% in the sandy loam soil. It appears that compost was a powerful agent for recovering the soil fertility of Cu-contaminated soils as assessed by N transformation. The acidic sandy soil showed a lower capacity for recovery after Cu toxicity stress. Received: 27 February 1999     

Laboratory studies on the leaching of aldicarb through a tropical soil from Belize,Central America

Studies in temperate regions indicate that the carbamate insecticide aldicarb and its metabolites leach readily through agricultural soils into groundwater. However, little is known about the fate of this nematicide in tropical regions, where its leaching potential may be even greater because of high annual rainfall and the acidic nature and low organic content of many tropical soils. Examination of the leaching behaviour of aldicarb and its metabolites in columns containing soil from Belize, Central America, indicated that total carbamate residues (TCR) could rapidly reach concentrations > 15 mg L^?1 in porewater 1 m below the soil surface within 70 days of application. These values are well in excess of the US EPA Health Advisory level of 0.01 mg L^?1. TCR retention within a given depth interval in the soil columns relative to incoming TCR flux was greatest between 0 and 0.1 m, reflecting high organic matter contents in the upper soil. Retention below 0.1 m was relatively consistent with depth, while differences in relative retention between columns were due to a greater duration of leaching for the second column. Aldicarb was rapidly oxidized to aldicarb sulfoxide and aldicarb sulfone in these soils. The high concentration and mobility of TCR in this acidic soil is attributed to the transformation of the parent compound to the sulfoxide metabolite, which has a lower degradation rate and organic carbon partioning coefficient than aldicarb.     

石灰在酸性稻田的施用效果

在土壤呈酸性且重金属铜、镉含量相对较高的稻田开展施用石灰效果试验。试验显示,施用石灰可提升土壤pH值,平均750 kg/hm~2石灰提升土壤pH值0.179;施用石灰可促进土壤有机质分解,增加土壤氮和磷的有效性,也会影响土壤铜、镉全量变化。试验初步表明,处理C(石灰用量750 kg/hm~2)的稻米对铜、镉富集能力较强。增施石灰可减少土壤铜、镉向稻米转移富集。水稻对镉的富集能力高于对铜的富集能力。试验表明,施用石灰可增加水稻有效穗数和千粒重,增产效果显著。以石灰用量750 kg/hm~2的水稻产量最高,效益最好,比CK增产干谷619.7 kg/hm~2,每千克石灰增产稻谷0.83 kg,净收入1 068.7元/hm~2,产投比为2.66。科学施用石灰可促进水稻增产和减轻稻米对铜、镉富集。
