Glyphosate is a commonly used herbicide in grassland soils and microorganisms control its degradation. We introduce the concept of using the degradation rate as an indicator for ecosystem health. Testing this concept, we used soils with a long history of heavy metal pollution (Cu, Pb, and Zn). We hypothesized lower degradation rates in metal-polluted compared to less polluted soils. The degradation rates were measured by repeated measurements of the parent compound in spiked soil-water slurries incubated at 20 °C over 21 days. Average rates showed no differences comparing among soils. We observed a positive correlation between glyphosate degradation rates and soil metal pollution. Therefore, we concluded that the expected impact of the metals on the bacteria responsible for the herbicide degradation was not established. We discuss the potential influence on biological degradation rates of soil pH and adsorption and implications using the concept of the soil health indicator. 相似文献

Using the soil gas radon as an indicator for ground contamination by non-aqueous phase-liquids 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Michael Schubert Klaus Freyer Hans-Christian Treutler Holger Weiß 《Journal of Soils and Sediments》2001,1(4):217-222
1 The Problem One of the major problems facing risk assessment at polluted industrial sites and military bases is subsurface contamination
by non-aqueous phase-liquids (NAPLs), since tracing the extent of a NAPL plume using conventional methods (drive point profiling)
is usually associated with difficulties. In an effort to trace subsurface contamination as precisely as possible, monitoring
points are placed in the area that might be affected by contaminants, and groundwater and soil samples are taken to the laboratory
for analysis. However, the final number of monitoring points is hardly ever sufficient for distinctive contamination mapping,
and this may ultimately result in an unsuitable remediation action being taken.
2 Objectives To obtain a more detailed image of a subsurface NAPL plume and, hence, to facilitate remediation measures that are best suited
for the site in question, a denser network of monitoring points is desirable. The aim of the investigation described in this
paper was therefore to develop a new detection method for subsurface NAPL contamination, which is based on an easily accessibleindicator for NAPLs rather than on the analysis of soil and groundwater samples taken at the site. Based on the good solubility of
radon in NAPLs, the idea was put forward that subsurface NAPL contamination should have an influence on the natural radon
concentration of the soil gas. Provided this effect is significant, it would be possible to carry out a straightforward radon
survey on an appropriate sampling grid covering the suspected site and thus enabling the NAPL contamination to be detected
by the localization of anomalous low radon concentrations in the soil. The overall aim of the investigation was to assess
the general suitability of the soil-gas radon concentration as an indirect tracer for NAPL contamination in the ground.
3 Methods The partitioning coefficient KNAPL/air is one of the most influential parameters governing the decrease of the radon concentration in the soil gas in the presence
of a subsurface NAPL contamination. Since NAPL mixtures such as gasoline, diesel fuel and paraffin are among the most important
NAPLs regarding remediation activities, laboratory experiments were performed to determine the radon-partitioning coefficient
for these three NAPL mixtures.
Field experiments were carried out as well. The aim of the field experiments was to test the use of the soil-gas radon concentration
as a tracer for NAPL contamination on-site. For the field experiments, each site was covered with a suitable grid of soil
gas sampling points. Finally, the lateral radon distribution pattern achieved on each of the sites was compared to the respective
findings of the earlier research performed by conventional means.
4 Results and Discussion The results of the laboratory experiments clearly show a very strong affinity of radon to the NAPL mixtures examined. The
partitioning coefficients achieved correspond to those published for pure NAPLs (Clever 1979) and are thus in the expected
range. The results of the field experiments showed that the minimum radon concentrations detected match the respective NAPL
plumes traced previously.
5 Conclusions Both the results of the lab experiments and the on-site findings demonstrate that the soil-gas radon concentration can be
used as an indicator for subsurface NAPL contamination. The investigation showed that NAPL-contaminated soil volumes give
rise to anomalous low soil-gas radon concentrations in the close vicinity of the contamination. The reason for this decrease
in the soil-gas radon concentration is the good solubility of radon in NAPLs, which enables the NAPLs to accumulate and ‘trap’
part of the radon available in the soil pores.
6 Recommendations and Outlook Further research is required into contamination with rather volatile NAPLs such as BTEX. Further research is also needed to
examine whether it is possible to not only localize a NAPL plume, but also to obtain some quantitative information about the
subsurface NAPL contamination. The authors also believe that additional investigations should be carried out to study the
ability of the method to not just localize a NAPL contamination, but also to monitor on-site, clean-up measures. 相似文献

利用高光谱遥感技术监测小麦土壤重金属污染 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1
为了探讨基于小麦叶片高光谱间接估测土壤重金属含量的潜力,该研究以江苏省宜兴市徐舍镇为研究区域,于2019-2020年采集农田土壤样品和小麦叶片光谱,经7种不同的光谱变换预处理后,以遗传算法(genetic algorithm,GA)优化的偏最小二乘回归算法(partial least squares regression,PLSR)对预处理后的光谱建立土壤重金属镉(Cd)和砷(As)含量的估测模型,并对模型结果进行精度评价。研究结果表明:1)光谱预处理技术能够突出光谱中的一些隐藏信息,对小麦叶片光谱进行微分变换、多元散射校正、标准正态变换等数学变换后更加有利于提取光谱敏感信息。2)GA-PLSR相较于一般的PLSR方法提高了模型精度,将GA用于光谱波段选择可以优化模型精度和提高稳定性。3)土壤Cd含量的最佳估测模型为标准正态变换预处理光谱与GA-PLSR结合,其外部验证的决定系数为0.87、均方根误差为0.04 mg/kg、相对分析误差为2.72;土壤As含量的最佳估测模型为多元散射校正预处理光谱与GA-PLSR结合,其外部验证的决定系数为0.91、均方根误差为0.32 mg/kg,相对分析误差为3.25。因此,能够利用小麦叶片高光谱间接估测土壤重金属Cd和As含量,该研究为将来实现定量、动态、无损遥感监测大面积农田土壤重金属污染状况提供参考依据。 相似文献

Analysis of vegetation and soils of the Rhondda Fawr, South Wales, shows that there is contamination by the heavy metals Pb, Cd, Cu and Ni throughout the valley, in particular within the urban development area. It is suggested that this contamination occurs mainly by aerial deposition, and that in the case of Pb, Cd and Ni the motor vehicle is the primary source. A correlation between the average heavy metal load of the soil of the urban strip, the urban strip width, and traffic frequency is established. Levels of heavy metals in soils and grasses within rural areas of the valley could be high enough to affect N mineralization in the soil, and could also have adverse effects upon grazing animals. 相似文献

Novel method for detecting bovine immunoglobulin G in dried porcine plasma as an indicator of bovine plasma contamination 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Current U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations prohibit feeding of protein derived from mammalian tissue, excluding blood and blood products and any product that consists entirely of porcine or equine protein. A novel lateral flow immunoassay device has been developed that can quickly and qualitatively determine the presence of bovine immunoglobulin G (IgG), a major component in blood products, at very low levels (0.01% v/v). The device can be used to test for bovine IgG commingling in spray-dried porcine plasma used in the feed industry. Producers and consumers alike could use this device to verify product content at threshold levels. 相似文献

Purpose
Human exposure to particulate matter emitted from on-road motor vehicles includes complex mixtures of heavy metals from tyres, brakes, part wear, and resuspended road sediment. The purpose of this study was to determine the concentrations of 14 platinum-group and other traffic-related heavy metals in road sediment within the metropolitan area of Guangzhou, China, with a view to identifying their sources and assessing the extent of anthropogenic influence on heavy metal contamination of road sediment.Materials and methods
Thirty-five samples of road sediment were collected. The concentrations of Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, La, Ce, Mo, Cd, Pb, Ba, and Rh were measured by inductively coupled plasma?Cmass spectrometry. Pt and Pd were analyzed by isotopic dilution?Cinductively coupled plasma?Cmass spectrometry. Multivariate statistical analysis and enrichment factor methods were employed to identify the sources of these heavy metals and to assess anthropogenic influences on their occurrence.Results and discussion
The mean concentrations of Pt, Pd, Rh, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, La, Ce, Mo, Cd, Pb, and Ba in the road sediment samples were 68.24, 93.15, 23.85, 147.5, 712.3, 47.24, 177.5, 1254, 47.50, 96.62, 4.91, 3.00, 198.1, and 641.3?ng?g?1, respectively. Very weak to significant linear positive correlations were found among the various heavy metals. The elemental composition of road sediment was dominated by five principal components. Three clusters were identified through cluster analysis, and enrichment factors were calculated relative to soils in China. The sources and degree of contamination of the heavy metals are discussed based on the results.Conclusions
The mean concentrations of heavy metals are higher than background values, especially for Pt, Pd, Rh, Cd, and Zn. Four main sources are identified: (1) Pt, Pd, and Rh were derived from traffic sources; (2) La, Ce, Mn, and Ba were derived mainly from natural sources; (3) Cr, Ni, Cu, Mo, Cd, and Pb showed mixed traffic-industry sources; and (4) Zn originated mainly from industrial sources. Enrichment factor analysis supported this source identification and further indicated that contamination of road sediment in Guangzhou is extremely high for Pt, Pd, and Rh; moderate to very high for Cd, Zn, Pb, Cu, and Mo; and minimal for Cr, Ni, La, Ce, and Ba. 相似文献11.
The utility of landfill temperature measurements both as a means of understanding landfill behavior and the interpretation of anomalous data points is explored by demonstration in a case study application. The availability of a pathway facilitating easy intrusion of atmospheric OZ into a landfill is shown to cause aerobic conditions and spontaneous combustion, during landfill pumping experiments. The landfill temperature measurements provide an effective means of isolating the extent of the problem. 相似文献

A high metal-containing soil and a low metal-containing soil were supplied with 14C-labelled glucose at two rates, one to provide a constant glucose-to-soil ratio and the other a constant glucose-to-biomass ratio. The aim was to assess the effects of these different ratios on the microbial substrate utilisation efficiency. Glucose was added with or without N to investigate the extraction efficiency of the fumigation-extraction method shortly after substrate addition. The addition of glucose without N resulted in a proportionally larger increase in microbial biomass C than in microbial ninhydrin-reactive N (ENIN) within the first few days after substrate addition, due to N deficiency. The biomass C-to-ENIN ratio remained constant in all soil treatments after glucose addition in combination with N, indicating that the extraction efficiency of the fumigation-extraction method is not affected by the addition of glucose. Lower percentages of glucose added were incorporated into the microbial biomass with an increasing ratio of glucose-to-biomass. The ratio of respired to biomass incorporated 14C increased in all high metal-containing soil treatments markedly above that of the low metal-containing soil from day two of the incubation, markedly overriding the effects on the glucose C-to-biomass C ratio. Our results clearly demonstrated that more substrate was diverted by microorganisms into catabolic at the expense of anabolic processes in a high metal-containing soil. 相似文献

Biomonitoring of the local population and environmental monitoring in eastern Croatia have revealed abnormalities in metal and metalloid distribution that could be related to war activities during the 1990s. The goal of this study was to determine whether there are differences in the concentrations of metals and metalloids by comparing locations of high and low-intensity combat activity; we also evaluated a possible connection between metal contamination in soil and in humans. We sampled 14 locations and measured the concentrations of 20 war related metals and metalloids (Al, As, B, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Li, Mg, Ni, Pb, Sb, Si, Sr, U, V and Zn). The results of principal components analysis showed two main clusters: locations Dopsin and Dalj (both characterized by high-intensity combat activity), where the concentrations of most elements (except Hg) were increased. Although the concentrations of metals and metalloids in cabbage samples collected in eastern Croatia did not exceed the maximum allowed values, the results of our study confirmed existance of environmental ‘hotspot’ with higher concentrations of war metals and metalloids. Our findings indicate that there is a possible common source and mechanism of transferring metals from the environment to the population. 相似文献

The threat of heavy metal contamination to food and human health in south and east China has become a public concern as industrial development continues. The aims of this study were to investigate the influence of repeated phytoextraction over a two-year period by successive crops of the Zn and Cd hyperaccumulator Sedum plumbizincicola on multiple metal contaminated soils and to assess recovery of soil quality. Total and NH4OAc-extractable Zn and Cd concentrations were significantly reduced in planted soils compared to unplanted soils. Microbial biomass C (Cmic), basal respiration and microbial quotient (qM) were significantly and positively correlated and soil metabolic quotient (qCO2) was negatively correlated with heavy metal concentrations in unplanted soils (P < 0.05). However, Cmic, basal respiration and qM values increased significantly after phytoremediation by five crops over two years compared to unplanted soil. Urease, β-glucosidase, neutral phosphatase and arylsulfatase activities also increased significantly with decreasing heavy metal contents and hydrolase activity was enhanced in planted soil (P < 0.05) compared to the unplanted control. The data indicate the capacity of S. plumbizincicola to extract Zn and Cd from contaminated soil and also that phytoremediation had beneficial effects on soil microbial and hydrolase activities, with the metal phytoextraction procedure restoring soil quality. 相似文献

Traditionally, three threshold levels have been accepted for heavy metal concentrations in agricultural soils, depending on soil pH. The aim of this work was to ascertain how the three threshold values proposed for Cd (3, 6.5, and 12.5 mg kg?1) and Zn (300, 650, and 1300 mg kg?1) really affect soil microbial activity. Two soils, a scrubland soil and a forest soil, differing widely in their organic C content, were used in this study. Despite the different soil characteristics, the fractions of Cd and Zn extracted with a solution of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) showed little difference between soils. Parameters, such as microbial biomass C (Cmic), soil basal respiration (BR), adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, dehydrogenase activity (DHA), urease activity (UA), alkaline phosphatase activity (APA), and β-glucosidase (β-GA), were less affected by heavy metals in the forest soil than in the scrubland soil. In general, the simultaneous addition of both metals had a synergistic effect on microbial activity, and this treatment produced a significant decrease of microbial activity of both soils with respect to control. The highest level (L3) of Cd, Zn and Cd + Zn treatments produced significant decrease of microbial and biochemical parameters in both soils. 相似文献

Several microbial parameters (microbial biomass, respiration, dehydrogenase, phosphatase, sulphatase, glucosidase, protease and urease activities) were measured in soils from five sites located in urban green areas close to roads differing in traffic density. Our aims were to evaluate the suitability of such parameters as field biomarkers of stress induced by heavy metal pollution, and to compare results obtained by single microbial parameters with results given by an index expressing the average microbial (AME) response of the microbial community. Data showed that all parameters were significantly reduced in the sites characterized by the highest load of metals in soil. Dehydrogenase, sulphatase, glucosidase activities and respiration, declined exponentially with increasing metal concentration, whereas phosphatase activity and AME decreased following a sigmoidal type relationship. In contrast, protease, urease and microbial biomass were not significantly correlated with soil metal concentration. Microbial parameters differed both in sensitivity to critical metal concentrations and in the rate of decline at increasing metal loads in soil. Due to the complex interplay of chemical, physical and biological factors which influence microbial activities and biomass, the proposed index (AME) appeared more suitable than single microbial parameters for a biomonitoring study of this type. 相似文献

Abstract. Finely ground limestone waste from lead mining is discarded as useless but could be a valuable alternative to agricultural limestone. A glasshouse pot experiment established that it is an effective liming material. Two kinds were used: one from north Wales (HMT) represented metal-rich waste produced by the older water-gravity separation of ores; the other (NLB) was a modern flotation tailings. A commercial lime (CLS) was used for comparison. The materials were applied to an acid soil in quantities sufficient to raise the pH to 7 (single liming) and at much greater rates equivalent to annual limings for 369 years. All treatments were replicated five times and the soil/lime mixtures were analysed for EDTA-extractable lead, zinc and cadmium. Radish was grown as the test plant and hypocotyl and leaf tissue were analysed for the same metals. The larger additions of HMT and NLB caused chlorosis and decreased yields. The cadmium and lead concentrations of leaves and hypocotyls suggested that the HMT material could be safely applied to soil annually for 79 years and NLB for 277 years. It is concluded that NLB can be used as agricultural limestone. 相似文献

We assessed the effects of chronic heavy metal (HM) contamination on soil microbial communities in a newly established forest ecosystem. We hypothesized that HM would affect community function and alter the microbial community structure over time and that the effects are more pronounced in combination with acid rain (AR). These hypotheses were tested in a model forest ecosystem consisting of several tree species (Norway spruce, birch, willow, and poplar) maintained in open top chambers. HMs were added to the topsoil as filter dust from a secondary metal smelter and two types of irrigation water acidity (ambient rain vs. acidified rain) were applied during four vegetation periods. HM contamination strongly impacted the microbial biomass (measured with both fumigation-extraction and quantitative lipid biomarker analyses) and community function (measured as basal respiration and soil hydrolase activities) of the soil microbial communities. The most drastic effect was found in the combined treatment of HM and AR, although soil pH and bioavailable HM contents were comparable to those of treatments with HM alone. Analyses of phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) and terminal restriction fragment length polymorphisms (T-RFLPs) of PCR-amplified 16S ribosomal DNA showed that HM treatment affected the structure of bacterial communities during the 4-year experimental period. Very likely, this is due to the still large bioavailable HM contents in the HM contaminated topsoils at the end of the experiment. 相似文献
