用卫星磁带图象制水土流失图的实验研究

自1972年美国发射资源卫星以后,国内外土壤学界纷纷用卫片来作为土壤调查的工具^[1-3,6]。在水土流失调查制图中也是如此^[9,11]。然而,由于卫星胶片信息损失达20%以上^[7]、目视判读的主观性和难于定量化,故即使用1/25万-1/20万的合成片调查判读,也只能达到1/50万-1/100万的调查制图精度。随着计算机图象处理技术和设备的发展,用卫星磁带图象进行分类制图的应用试验,日益增多,并取得了一定的进展^[5,10],甚至有的达到应用的程度¹⁾。这与卫星磁带图象的信息很少损失有关;同时也因这种技术具有比目视判读更客观、更定量的突出优点。因此,这种遥感技术有可能达到1八。万-1/20万的调查制图精度。     

土壤航测制图的研究Ⅰ.半干旱褐土区航空象片的土壤判读

早在本世纪三十年代,国外土壤调查制图已经开始应用航空象片^[1,2],但仅仅作为辅助资料。第二次世界大战后,航摄资料才得到广泛的运用,并且开展了航空象片土壤判读的研究,在室内的象片分析方面,取得不少成果,这样就大大压缩了野外工作量,进一步提高了调查制图的精度与速度。可是国外的工作多半在自然植被保存较好、土壤受人为影响不大的荒漠草原、干草原及森林地区。     

水土流失制图中仪器判读法的初步研究

应用遥感技术清查各种资源,已在国内外较普遍地开展起来了^[1-5]。在我国,水土流失调查中有用1/25万或1/20万假彩色合成卫片的目视判读法^[6],也有用LandsatMSS磁带数据经计算机运算的监督分类法^[1]。从制图的速度、精度、重复性、成图比例尺和成本费用等方面来分析,它们各有长短。最近,作者在较详细地研究了地物和土壤侵蚀类型的卫星磁带数据特点以后,提出了一种仪器判读法(也可叫监控密度分割法)制水土流失图,并开展了应用实脸,取得了初步的结果。     

卫星遥感新方法在水土流失调查中的应用试验

1982年,我们曾选择用常规法调查过的兴国县作为实验区,利用卫星磁带图象在S101(图象处理计算机)系统上进行了各种算法试验,初步找到了适用于水土流失调查制图的最佳作业流程,从而成为一种可用于水土流失调查的卫星遥感新方法^[1,2]。     

用钙黄绿素作指示剂络合滴定土壤交换性钙

在测定盐基总量后的溶液中,用络合滴定法测定交换性钙,土壤常规分析方法^[1]采用钙指示剂作指示剂,由于该指示剂能被氢氧化镁沉淀所吸附,也易受铝及重金属离子之"封闭",因此最近资料^[2]又复用早期应用过的紫脲酸铵,后者不受"封闭",但滴定终点由红色边紫色较难辨认。     

茶园土壤有机质的比色测定

土壤有机质一般是用丘林法进行常规分析^[1,2,3],资料³曾介绍过稀碱热浸比色法,由于条件限制,这两个方法均不便田间速测。     

内蒙古河套灌区灌排水离子组成及淋洗盐分用水量评价

以河套灌区“盐分去向”为研究背景, 通过调查灌区土壤及各级灌排渠系水阳离子含量变化及室内模拟灌溉水淋洗土柱试验, 分析灌溉水经过土壤到排水阳离子组成的变化规律, 探讨用Na⁺浓度评价淋盐排灌水量比的可行性。结果表明, 与灌溉水相比, 各级排水干渠排水所含盐分中Na⁺所占比例明显增加, 平均约为87%; Ca²⁺所占比例减少, 平均约为7%。排水的全盐浓度(EC)和Na⁺浓度有显著相关关系, 说明Na⁺浓度对排水的全盐浓度有显著影响。灌溉水的2/3 Ca²⁺以非水溶性钙盐积聚在土壤, 排出量较少, 但灌区全年的Na⁺收支基本平衡。淋盐排灌水量比评价分析结果表明, 用Na⁺浓度评价淋盐排灌水量比要优于用全盐浓度(EC); 要维持灌区Na⁺收支平衡, 排灌水量比应保持在0.12~0.15, 针对现有灌区年引水量50 亿t, 年排水量要达到6~7 亿t。     

亚硫酸铵的肥效试验初报

氮和硫都是植物生长发育所必需的营养元素,氮可以NH₄⁺形式、硫以SO₄⁼形式被植物所吸收,而SO₃⁼则不宜作为植物营养的硫源,因此在已往的文献中,没有见到关于用亚硫酸铵做肥料的记载。     

黄土丘陵沟壑区不同空间尺度流域泥沙输移比研究

泥沙输移比是定量表征流域内侵蚀产沙-河道输沙特征的重要指标。探讨了不同尺度流域泥沙输移比计算的可能性与方法,以黄土丘陵沟壑区的径流小区、小流域、水文站实测资料为基础,利用径流小区观测资料和单元小流域侵蚀模数2种方法,对4种空间尺度流域的泥沙输移比进行了估算。结果表明:(1)对于面积在10~100km²的小流域,利用2种方法计算的泥沙输移比结果非常接近,说明在没有小区观测资料时,用单元小流域计算流域泥沙输移比是可行的。(2)对于土壤侵蚀类型单一的水文站控制流域,在没有面积>1km²单元小流域资料的情况下,可以用面积1~10km²小流域或面积10~100km²小流域作为单元小流域来计算泥沙输移比而对于侵蚀类型不同的支流其误差范围有些偏大。(3)流域治理措施的实施对于泥沙输移比的减少具有明显的效果,但治理措施减沙效应的发挥具有一定的滞后性。     

大比例尺土壤制图几个问题的商榷

我国士维制图工作开展的历史虽较短,但有自己的发展道路。继全国土壤普查以后,近年来开展了以人民公社、生产大队和国营农场为单位的上集详测研究^[1-3]1),这是一项具有实践和理论意义的工作。为了使土级调查制图工作满足生产上的需耍,发挥大比例尺士级调查在农业生产中的作用,巫需多作这方面的经验交流和问题讨论,基于这样的认识,对大比例尺土壤调查制图问题,淡谈个人的一点体会和看法。     

粘土矿物固定化微生物对土壤中阿特拉津的降解研究

以粘土矿物为载体,采用吸附挂膜法对已筛选的阿特拉津降解菌株进行固定化,并应用固定化微生物降解土壤中的阿特拉津。结果表明,该菌株在粘土矿物上生长良好,根据菌种生理生化特性、环境扫描电镜图片以及16S rDNA基因的相似性分析初步鉴定该菌株为Ochrobactrum sp.。接种降解菌能明显加快阿特拉津在土壤中的降解速率,粘土矿物固定化微生物的降解效果要明显优于游离菌,粘土矿物粒径越小,固定化微生物的降解效果越好,纳米粘土矿物固定化微生物的降解效果要好于原粘土矿物。用一级动力学方程描述阿特拉津在土壤中的降解过程,不同土壤中阿特拉津的降解速率不同。阿特拉津在红壤、砂姜黑土、黄褐土中的降解半衰期（t1/2）分别为36.9、49.1、55.0 d,投加纳米蒙脱石固定化降解菌后的半衰期则分别为16.3、25.3、21.7 d。     

Influence of soil type and indigenous pathogenic fungi on bean hypocotyl rot caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG4 HGI in Cuba

Calcisol, ferralsol and vertisol soils, representative of different bean production areas of Villa Clara province in Cuba, were selected to determine the impact of soil type on bean hypocotyl rot severity caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG4 HGI (isolate CuVC-Rs7). In inoculated autoclaved soil, hypocotyl rot was most severe in calcisol soil, followed by ferralsol soils and then vertisol soils. In inoculated natural soils, disease severity was lower in vertisol and calcisol soils and higher in ferralsol soil, indicating that biological factors are suppressing or stimulating the pathogenic efficiency of R. solani. Native binucleate Rhizoctonia AGF, Sclerotium rolfsii and R. solani AG 4 HGI were isolated from bean plants grown in natural calcisol, vertisol and ferralsol soils, respectively. Subsequent studies about the interaction between these fungi and R. solani indicated that they were involved in the variability of disease severity caused by R. solani. The addition of R. solani AG4 HGI (isolate CuVC-Rs7) into each autoclaved soil inoculated with binucleate Rhizoctonia or S. rolfsii resulted in a reduction of disease severity caused by this pathogen while in soils inoculated with native R. solani AG4 HGI, disease severity increased. Irrespective of fungal interactions, calcisol was always the most disease conducive soil and vertisol the most disease repressive soil. The mechanisms by which native pathogenic fungi could influence disease severity caused by R. solani are discussed.

Dicyandiamide sorption-desorption behavoir on soils and peat humus

The sorption-desorption behavior of dicyandiamide (DCD) is an important chemical process that affects DCD fate and mobility in soils. Therefore, this study quantified DCD sorption-desorption on a phaeozem (Mollisol), a burozem (Alfisol), a soil with organic matter-removed and peat humus using the batch-equilibration procedure, and identified soil properties that influenced DCD sorption. The sorption on peat humus was higher than that on the phaeozem and the burozem, with much lower sorption observed on the soil with organic matter-removed, indicating that soil organic matter was the main carrier of DCD sorption. Due to its amphipathic property the DCD molecule sorption on the phaeozem and the burozem decreased as pH increased from about 2 to 5, but a further increase in pH led to a rise in DCD sorption.The DCD desorption hysteretic effect for peat humus was greater than that for the phaeozem and the burozem using 0.01 mol L^-1 CaCl2 as the background electrolyte, suggesting that the hydrophobic domains of organic matter may play an important role in DCD sorption.     

Microbial activity and metabolic quotient of microbes in soils amended with biochar and contaminated with atrazine and paraquat

The study was conducted to determine how biochar as a soil amendment maintained the microbial community in pesticide contaminated soils. Alfisol (Adenta series – Typic Kandiustalf) and Vertisol (Akuse series – Typic Calciustert) were amended with biochar (0 t/ha biochar, 10 t/ha cocoa husk biochar (CHB), 10 t/ha rice husk biochar (RHB)) and pesticides (atrazine and paraquat at two rates each namely 0 kg/ha pesticide and 10 times the normal recommended rate of pesticide) were applied. The CHB-amended soils stimulated microbial activities such as ammonia and nitrate release more than the RHB-amended soils. Basal respiration was significantly higher in the atrazine polluted soils than in paraquat polluted soil. Significant interaction occurred between soil type and biochar and high microbial biomass carbon was recorded for vertisol amended with CHB. Metabolic quotient was lower in soils amended with biochar and polluted with atrazine than in the un-amended soil. The use of CHB in soil of high clay content (47.5%, i.e. the vertisol) was a more effective management tool in maintaining the microbial community in a pesticide-polluted environment than in soil of lower clay content (22.5%). Soils of high clay content amended with biochar can sustain the soil microbial community even in a disturbed environment.     

THE NATURE AND GENESIS OF CERTAIN ARIDISOLS IN KENYA

In the semi-arid Kenya lowlands, strongly contrasting soil units associated with specific positions in the landscape have developed on various ancient alluvial deposits. The soil pattern may be explained by the differential truncation of a previously solodized plateau. These contrasting soil sequences give rise to associated vegetation catenas. Necessary adaptations are applied to the 7th Approximation soil classification, thereby introducing one new Great Group (Halorthid) and several new subgroups (natric grumustert, natric grumaquert, and typic halorthid).     

An appraisal of the problems in classifying saline-sodic soils of the indo-gangetic plain in NW India

Most of the salt-affected soils of the Indo-Gangetic plain in NW India do not find suitable places in the 1970 U.S. system of soil classification. According to the current class definitions, soils with high salts, ESP, pH, chromas and yellower hues key out as Typic or Aquic Calciorthids, Camborthids and Haplustalfs which does not spell out their saline-sodic nature. For land-use recommendations, the authors believe it will be useful to set these soils apart at some high categoric level in the system.It is proposed that the structural requirements for the natric horizon be modified to include horizons with high ESP (? 40) but having simple blocky structure with or without tongues of eluvial material. New subgroups, viz. Natric, within the orders of Inceptisols, Alfisols and Aridisols is suggested for the high sodium-saturated soils lacking natric horizons. For similar practical considerations, the high concentrations of salts in soils when associated with high ESP pose problems in leaching and consequently new subgroups, viz. Salic and Salic Natric, within the orders of Aridisols and Alfisols are suggested.The modifications proposed not only place more emphasis on the saline-sodic nature of these soils but also result in better groupings for practical land use.     

Saline-alkali soils of Russia

Diagnostics, methods of evaluation, and geography of saline-alkali (soda) soils are discussed. The saline-alkali soils include soils of different genetic types with the following chemical properties: the pH of the water suspensions equal to or higher than 8.5; the total alkalinity exceeding 1.4 meq/100 g of soil and the sum of water-soluble calcium and magnesium; and the presence of soluble “alkaline” salts in the soil profiles, the hydrolysis of which results in the alkaline reaction of the soils. The chemical properties of the saline-alkali soils are largely related to the presence of soda (Na₂CO₃, NaHCO₃) in the soils. According to their morphological properties, saline-alkali soils are divided into two groups: alkaline soils with an undiferentiated profile and without a morphologically pronounced solonetzic (natric) horizon, and alkaline soils with a pronounced natric horizon (solonetzes). Solonetzes, in turn, are divided into (a) alkaline solonetzes (with soda or with soda and neutral salts), (b) solonetzes salinized with neutral salts (saline soils) with increased alkalinity in the solonetzic and lower lying horizons, (c) saline solonetzes throughout the profile, and (d) leached solonetzes containing no soluble salts in the profile and almost no exchangeable sodium in the soil exchange complex (SEC) (“dead” solonetzes). The latter two groups of solonetzes cannot be ranked among the alkaline soils. The alkalinity of the saline-alkali soils under study is due to carbonate and bicarbonate ions (carbonate alkalinity), organic acid anions (organic alkalinity), and borate ions (borate alkalinity). The carbonate alkalinity is due to both soda (Na₂CO₃, NaHCO₃) and CaCO₃.     

An energy based parameter for the assessment of aggregate bond energy

The energy applied to a soil-water suspension by an ultrasonic probe was determined for seven vertisol soils using calorimetric techniques. The rate of energy consumed by aggregate dispersion during sonification was calculated as the difference between the energy components measured before and after complete dispersion. Dispersive energy consumption was found to vary significantly during sonification and significant differences (P<0.05) were found between soils for the total dispersive energy required for complete dispersion. The soil dispersion characteristic curves, which relate the dispersive energy consumption during sonification to the quantity of <2 μm and <20 μm material dispersed, were also significantly different between soils. Error analysis of the calorimetric technique revealed that the energy consumed by complete dispersion is calculated with a precision of ±0.5 J g^?1. For the soils studied, this was smaller than the observed variance in total dispersive energy consumed suggesting sample variability was the major source of variation. The ultrasonic technique was also used to determine the equivalent total energy applied and the amount of energy consumed by aggregate breakdown and dispersion during 30 min of end-over-end shaking. No significant difference (P<0.05) was found between soils for the total energy applied. However, a significant difference (P<0.05) was observed between soils for the quantity of dispersive energy required to produce the equivalent end-over-end dispersion.     

Irrigation and dryland cultivation effects on the surface properties and erodibility of a Zimbabwe vertisol

Abstract. Changes in chemical and physical properties and erodibility of a vertisol were studied in relation to land use. The vertisol, which occurs extensively in the semi-arid south-east of Zimbabwe, is derived from basalt and has a self mulching surface layer. Irrigated crops show static yields despite introduction of improved varieties. Four uncultivated sites were selected as controls and compared with five irrigated and four dryland sites. Surface soils were analysed for a range of chemical and physical properties, and laboratory rainfall simulation was used to measure soil erodibility under high intensity rain. The irrigated soils had greater exchangeable sodium and available phosphorus than the uncultivated soils. In contrast, dryland soils showed no such changes apart from a decrease in the amount of small water-stable aggregates. The soils are very erodible under high intensity rain but no significant differences were found between sites. We conclude that, although soil chemical changes have taken place in the irrigated soils, significant soil degradation has not occurred at the sites examined. The static yields probably result from management problems. However, immediate measures should be taken to improve drainage and irrigation management in the irrigated soils to avoid further sodium increases.
