有机物料对淹水土壤中施入的镉形态的影响

The effect of three organic materials(rice straw,Chinese milk vetch and pig manure)on the fractionation of cadmium added into two soils(a red soil and a fluvo-aquic soil) was studied using submerged incubation experiment.The organic materials increased soil soild organic carbon(SOC),pH value,the concentration of active Si in all the treatments and active Fe and Mn in some treatments.Accumulated SOC caused directly the increase of Cd bound to solid organic matter and consequently the decrease of exchangeable Cd.Higher active Si and pH,as well as lower Eh,were also responsible for the reduction of exchangeable Cd.Cd bound to mn oxide was positively correlated with pH values and rose significantly after one-month incubation,but decreased after three-month incubation.Cd bound to amporphous Fe oxide increased with the incubation time,but was not affected significantly by adding organic materials.     

铵、钾同时存在时, 土壤对铵的优先吸附

The water stability of aggregates in various size classes separated from 18 samples of red soils under different managements, and the mechanisms responsible for the formation of water-stable soil aggregates were studied. The results showed that the water stability of soil aggregates declined with increasing size, especially for the low organic matter soils. Organic matter plays a key role in the formation of water-stable soil aggregates. The larger the soil aggregate size, the greater the impact of organic matter on the water stability of soil aggregates. Removal of organic matter markedly disintegrated the large water-stable aggregates (> 2.0 mm) and increased the small ones (< 0.25-0.5mm) to some extent, whereas removal of free iron(aluminium) oxides considerably destroyed aggregates of all sizes, especially the < 0.25-0.5 mm classes. The contents of organic matter in water-stable aggregates increased with aggregate sizes. It is concluded from this study that small water-stable aggregates (< 0.25-0.5 mm) were chiefly cemented by Fe and Al oxides whilst the large ones (> 2.0 mm) were mainly glued up by organic matter. Both free oxides and organic matter contribute to the formation and water stability of aggregates in red soils.

The hydrolysis of kaolinitic soils as affected by the type of the exchangeable cation

The hydrolysis of four kaolinitic soils from the Transvaal (RSA), and the effects of exchangeable Na, Ca and Mg were studied by monitoring the changes in the electrical conductivity of the soil suspension with time. The rate of the hydrolysis was found to be linearly related to the square root of time. The rates of the hydrolysis of the Half-Way House and Krugersdorp soils were appreciably lower than those of the Potchefstroom and Amsterdam soils, and rates reported in the literature for smectite soils. This was probably because of the low content of hydrolysable bases in the Half-Way House and Krugersdorp soils, resulting from the low cation exchange capacity of their clay fraction. The extensive hydrolysis observed in the Potchefstroom and Amsterdam soils could be ascribed to the presence of significant amounts of smectite in the former and high silt content in the latter; both factors are known to enhance the rate of weathering and hydrolysis. With the exception of the Potchefstroom soil, the rate of hydrolysis was not affected by the cationic composition of the adsorbed phase. Contrary to expectations, exchangeable Mg did not inhibit hydrolysis in the soils studied, probably because of the limited isomorphic substitutions in kaolinite which lead to very small amounts of octahedral Mg in the crystal. The hydrolysis of the Potchefstroom soil was enhanced in the presence of exchangeable Mg compared to exchangeable Ca; the reason for this is not fully understood.     

Denitrification and nitrogen immobilization as affected by organic matter and different forms of nitrogen added to an anaerobic water-sediment system

The effects of wheat straw and different forms of N on denitrification and N immobilization were studied in an anaerobic water-sediment system. The water-sediment system was supplemented with various combinations of wheat straw and ¹⁵N-labelled and unlabelled (NH₄)₂SO₄ or KNO₃, and incubated anaerobically at 30°C for 10 days. ¹⁵N-labelled and unlabelled NO _inf3 ^sup- , NO _inf2 ^sup- , NH _inf4 ^sup+ , and organic N were determined in the water-sediment system. The gases evolved (N₂, CO₂, N₂O, and CH₄) were analyzed by gas chromatography at regular intervals. Larger quantities of ¹⁵N₂–N and organic ¹⁵N were formed in wheat straw-amended systems than in non-amended systems. Trends in CO₂ production were similar to those of N₂–N evolution. The evolution of N₂O and CH₄ was negligible. Denitrification processes accounted for about 22 and 71% of the added ¹⁵NO _inf3 ^sup- –N in the absence and presence of wheat straw, respectively. The corresponding denitrification rates were 3.4 and 12.4 g ¹⁵Ng^-1 dry sediment day^-1. In systems amended with ¹⁵NO _inf3 ^sup- –N and ¹⁵NO _inf3 ^sup- +NH _inf4 ^sup+ –N without wheat straw, 1.82 and 1.58%, respectively, of the added ¹⁵NH _inf3 ^sup- –N was immobilized. The corresponding figures for the same systems supplemented with wheat straw were 5.08 and 4.10%, respectively. Immobilization of ¹⁵NO _inf4 ^sup+ –N was higher than that of ¹⁵NO _inf3 ^sup- –N. The presence of NO _inf3 ^sup- –N did not stimulate NH _inf4 ^sup+ –N immobilization.     

Soybean response to copper applied to two soils with different levels of organic matter and clay

Abstract

Increasing the amount of soil organic matter (OM) alters the availability of copper (Cu) for plants under tropical and subtropical conditions. With the aim of evaluating the effects of the OM/Cu interaction on the soybean crop, a trial was conducted with a fully randomized 2?×?5 factorial design and four replicates. The treatments consisted of five Cu rates (0, 1, 2, 4 and 8?mg kg^?1) and two soil types: Typic Oxisol and Typic Ultisol. The soybean responded to fertilization with Cu, producing the highest estimated grain yield at a rate of 4.1?mg kg^?1. Similarly were also observed for shoot dry weight, number of pods and root length. The soil chemical properties and nutrient levels in the leaves and grain were influenced only by the soil type, whereas physiological components were affected in terms of photosynthetic rate and intercellular CO₂ concentration.     

Changes in forest soil organic matter pools after a decade of elevated CO2 and O3

The impact of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) may be mitigated, in part, by enhanced rates of net primary production and greater C storage in plant biomass and soil organic matter (SOM). However, C sequestration in forest soils may be offset by other environmental changes such as increasing tropospheric ozone (O₃) or vary based on species-specific growth responses to elevated CO₂. To understand how projected increases in atmospheric CO₂ and O₃ alter SOM formation, we used physical fractionation to characterize soil C and N at the Rhinelander Free Air CO₂-O₃ Enrichment (FACE) experiment. Tracer amounts of ¹⁵NH₄⁺ were applied to the forest floor of Populus tremuloides, P. tremuloides-Betula papyrifera and P. tremuloides-Acer saccharum communities exposed to factorial CO₂ and O₃ treatments. The ¹⁵N tracer and strongly depleted ¹³C-CO₂ were traced into SOM fractions over four years. Over time, C and N increased in coarse particulate organic matter (cPOM) and decreased in mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM) under elevated CO₂ relative to ambient CO₂. As main effects, neither CO₂ nor O₃ significantly altered ¹⁵N recovery in SOM. Elevated CO₂ significantly increased new C in all SOM fractions, and significantly decreased old C in fine POM (fPOM) and MAOM over the duration of our study. Overall, our observations indicate that elevated CO₂ has altered SOM cycling at this site to favor C and N accumulation in less stable pools, with more rapid turnover. Elevated O₃ had the opposite effect, significantly reducing cPOM N by 15% and significantly increasing the C:N ratio by 7%. Our results demonstrate that CO₂ can enhance SOM turnover, potentially limiting long-term C sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems; plant community composition is an important determinant of the magnitude of this response.

Barley yield and soil microbial and enzyme activities as affected by contamination of two soils with lead, zinc or copper

The effects of increasing rates of Pb, Zn and Cu on extractable heavy metal levels, barley yields, basal respiration and the activities of catalase, urease, invertase and acid phosphatase were investigated in two soils in a 2-year greenhouse experiment. In the first year, barley yields were decreased by increasing additions of Pb, Zn and Cu. In the second year, increased yields were recorded at lower rates of addition of all three metals in both the chestnut and chernozem soils. Yield depressions were most marked for added Cu and least marked for Pb but, in contrast, accumulation of heavy metals in grain, in excess of recommended limits, was most pronounced for Pb and did not occur for Cu. Increasing rates of all three metals caused a decrease in basal respiration; the degree of inhibition was generally greater in the second than in the first year. After 1 year of incubation, increasing rates of addition of metals reduced all tested enzyme activities. However, after 2 years, the pattern of response was more complex, with increases in enzyme activities being noted at lower rates of addition of all three metals. In general, invertase and urease activities were more markedly inhibited by heavy metal contamination than those of catalase and phosphatase. Ammonium acetate-extractable heavy metal concentrations in soils were less after 2 years than 1 years reaction time due to their transformation into less labile forms. Significant negative correlations between grain yield, basal respiration and enzyme activities were observed in both years.     

Land-use related organic matter dynamics in North Cameroon soils assessed by 13C analysis of soil organic matter fractions

Topsoil samples from cultivated and adjacent non‐cultivated fields on three major agricultural soils in North Cameroon were fractionated into particle‐size fractions that were analysed subsequently for their C and ¹³C contents. The aim was to obtain further insight into the dynamics of soil organic matter (SOM) in relation to land use in Cameroon. Since organic carbon contents of the fractions were often very small, samples and analyses were extensively replicated to obtain robust statistical estimates of observed differences. For each soil type, differences in δ¹³C values between fields could be related to changes in the input and decomposition of organic matter arising from soil type, land management and, for example, the nature and abundance of weeds. Turnover of organic matter appeared to be fastest in the sand fraction, which is in line with results from earlier studies. In the finer fractions, clear differences in reaction to changes in input and decomposition were observed, that seem to be linked to differences in clay mineralogy. The results illustrate that SOM in the various fractions is much less stable and more strongly affected by changes in land use than might be assumed on the basis of changes in total SOM contents alone. At the same time, they demonstrate the relevance of ¹³C isotope analyses of SOM for studies on the impact of land use on these savannah soils with little SOM that are highly susceptible to degradation.     

Cadmium sorption by two acid soils as affected by clearing and cultivation

Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of clearing and cultivation on the sorption of cadmium (Cd) by two acid soils from Zimbabwe with differing cultivation stories. In their original state, not cleared‐not cultivated (virgin soils), the two soils exhibited noticeable and similar capacities to sorb Cd. The Mazowe soil contains the highest level of organic matter (40 g kg^‐1) and a effective cation exchange capacity (ECEC) of 144 mmol_c kg^‐1. Yet, Bulawayo soil (23.5 g kg^‐1 organic matter and ECEC of 146 mmol_c kg^‐1) has higher pH and Mn and Fe oxide content and these characteristics seemed to counteract the effect of lower organic matter. After 50 years of cultivation, The Mazowe soil has lost 60% of its organic matter and ECEC, and consequently the ability of its soil matrix to bind Cd has proportionally decreased. In Bulawayo (cleared in 1983 and first ploughed in 1984), on the contrary, the organic matter and ECEC of the cultivated soil remains over 95% of the values on its virgin counterpart. In this soil, the retaining ability for Cd has not still been affected. In the two soils Cd sorption was highly pH‐dependent. The extent of sorption was minimal under acidic conditions and increased sharply as the pH was raised. The immediate reversibility of the sorption process proved to be very low. When sorption and desorption data were compared it was clear that soil characteristics like high organic matter and oxide content which showed to enhanced Cd sorption, contributed at the same time to slow down the backward reaction.     

Fluxes of CO2, CH4 and N2O from drained organic soils in deciduous forests

We examined net greenhouse gas exchange at the soil surface in deciduous forests on soils with high organic contents. Fluxes of CO₂, CH₄ and N₂O were measured using dark static chambers for two consecutive years in three different forest types; (i) a drained and medium productivity site dominated by birch, (ii) a drained and highly productive site dominated by alder and (iii) an undrained and highly productive site dominated by alder. Although the drained sites had shallow mean groundwater tables (15 and 18 cm, respectively) their average annual rates of forest floor CO₂ release were almost twice as high compared to the undrained site (1.9±0.4 and 1.7±0.3, compared to 1.0±0.2 kg CO₂ m⁻² yr⁻¹). The average annual CH₄ emission was almost 10 times larger at the undrained site (7.6±3.1 compared to 0.9±0.5 g CH₄ m⁻² yr⁻¹ for the two drained sites). The average annual N₂O emissions at the undrained site (0.1±0.05 g N₂O m⁻² yr⁻¹) were lower than at the drained sites, and the emissions were almost five times higher at the drained alder site than at the drained birch site (0.9±0.35 compared to 0.2±0.11 g N₂O m⁻² yr⁻¹). The temporal variation in forest floor CO₂ release could be explained to a large extent by differences in groundwater table and air temperature, but little of the variation in the CH₄ and N₂O fluxes could be explained by these variables. The measured soil variables were only significant to explain for the within-site spatial variation in CH₄ and N₂O fluxes at the undrained swamp, and dark forest floor CO₂ release was not explained by these variables at any site. The between-site spatial variation was attributed to variations in drainage, groundwater level position, productivity and tree species for all three gases. The results indicate that N₂O emissions are of greater importance for the net greenhouse gas exchange at deciduous drained forest sites than at coniferous drained forest sites.     

Fertilization effects on organic matter in physically fractionated soils as studied by 13C NMR: Results from two long-term field experiments

^l3C–nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra taken using magic–angle spinning (MAS), cross polarization (CP) and with total suppression of side bands (TOSS) are reported for soils from two long–term field experiments. One set of soils was from the Broadbalk Experiment at Rothamsted, UK (monoculture of winter wheat since 1843) and the other was from the Lermarken site of the Askov Long–Term Experiment on Animal Manure and Mineral Fertilizers (arable rotation since 1894). At both sites soil samples were taken from three fertilizer treatments: nil, inorganic fertilizers, animal manure. Spectra were obtained from whole soil samples and from the size fractions clay (<2 μrn), silt (2–20 μm) and, in some cases, sand (20–2000 μm). Comparison of the total strengths of the ¹³C–NMR signal for each size separate in relation to its total organic C content shows that clay, particularly, contains large percentages of C not detected by NMR because of the large magnetic susceptibilities of the soil minerals. It is proposed that the observed signals come from the more labile pools of soil organic matter (SOM), on the presumption that these pools are less closely associated with soil minerals and iron oxides and are likely to be less protected from microbial or enzymic decomposition. For both Rothamsted and Askov, functional groups in the 45–110 ppm region (N– and O–alkyls) dominate in the spectra for whole soils, with aromatics (110–160 ppm) and alkyls (0–45 ppm) signals being the next prominent. In the Askov whole soil samples ¹³C–NMR revealed no differences between nil, inorganic fertilizer and animal manure treatments but in the Rothamsted whole soil there were some small differences. Clay and silt fractions from Askov contain more alkyls and less aromatics than those from Rothamsted. For both sites clay in enriched in alkyls and depleted in aromatics relative to silt. Clay from Askov, but not Rothamsted, contains more N–alkyls (45–65 ppm) and less acetals (90–110 ppm) than silt. O–alkyls (65–90 ppm) account for more than 20% of the total signal in clay and silt from both sites. Fertilization regimes have not significantly affected the chemical composition of SOM associated with clay– and silt–sized fractions in the soils at either site. We conclude that the chemical composition of SOM is determined primarily by the interaction between the organisms responsible for decomposition and the mineral soil matrix rather than the nature of substrate input.     

Translocation of soils to stimulate climate change: CO2 emissions and modifications to soil organic matter

The effect of climate change on CO₂ emissions was studied on undisturbed soil monoliths (40‐cm diameter, 25‐cm high), which were translocated to warmer zones than their place of origin. Thirty‐two months after the translocation, a climatic factor deduced from the moisture content of the soil and from the effective mean temperature (temperatures in excess of 5°C) revealed that translocation increased the potential of the climate to enhance the biological processes by between 73% and 26% compared with what the soil would support in its place of origin. At the end of the study, the transported soils had lost a large proportion of both total carbon and nitrogen (between 20 and 45%). During the experiment, the CO₂ emissions from the soils, measured under field conditions, were quite variable, but were usually greater than from soils in situ. The variation in labile C in the soil throughout the experiment was calculated from a first‐order kinetic equation for organic matter decay. The relative CO₂ emissions, expressed in terms of the labile carbon fraction in the soils, were clearly greater in those translocated soils that underwent the most intensive climate change, which indicates that the variations in emissions over time are basically a function of the size of the labile organic matter pool.     

Long-term impact of conservation tillage on stratification ratio of soil organic carbon and loss of total and active CaCO3

Under semi-arid conditions, the properties of many soils are influenced by the presence of organic matter and calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). However, the influence of different tillage systems on the development of these properties has scarcely been studied under semi-arid Mediterranean conditions. We studied the effect of long-term conservation tillage (CT) and traditional tillage (TT) on the stratification ratio of soil organic carbon and on CaCO₃ content. The study was conducted in a wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)–sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) crop rotation established in 1991 under rainfed conditions in Southwestern Spain. As is traditional in this area, wheat was fertilised, but sunflower was not. Conservation tillage was characterised by reduced number of tillage operations and leaving crop residues on the soil surface, while TT was with mouldboard ploughing. Stratification ratio of soil organic C was calculated from C contents in the 0–5 and 5–10 cm soil layers divided by that in the 25–40 cm. Stratification ratio of soil organic C under the CT (>2) was significantly greater than under TT (<2); values >2 indicating better soil quality. Our results show a loss of CaCO₃ under both tillage systems. However, the loss of CaCO₃ was significantly higher under TT than under CT. Also, P and K accumulated in the soil surface and stratification ratio for both nutrients was greater in CT than in TT.     

Retention of dissolved organic matter by illitic soils and clay fractions: Influence of mineral phase properties

The dependency of the retention of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on mineral phase properties in soils remains uncertain especially at neutral pH. To specifically elucidate the role of mineral surfaces and pedogenic oxides for DOC retention at pH 7, we sorbed DOC to bulk soil (illitic surface soils of a toposequence) and corresponding clay fraction (< 2 μm) samples after the removal of organic matter and after removal of organic matter and pedogenic oxides. The DOC retention was related to the content of dithionite‐extractable iron, specific surface area (SSA, BET‐N₂ method) and cation exchange capacity (pH 7). The reversibility of DOC sorption was determined by a desorption experiment. All samples sorbed 20–40 % of the DOC added. The DOC sorption of the clay fractions explained the total sorption of the bulk soils. None of the mineral phase properties investigated was able to solely explain the DOC retention. A sorption of 9 to 24 μg DOC m^–2 indicated that DOC interacted only with a fraction of the mineral surface, since loadings above 500 μg m^–2 would be expected for a carbon monolayer. Under the experimental conditions used, the surface of the silicate clay minerals seemed to be more important for the DOC sorption than the surface of the iron oxides. The desorption experiment removed 11 to 31 % of the DOC sorbed. Most of the DOC was strongly sorbed.     

Functional analysis of soil organic matter as affected by long-term manurial treatment

The composition of soil organic matter (SOM) is influenced by land use and fertilization. We studied changes in the SOM in a long-term field experiment on a sandy Podzoluvisol. The control plot and four combinations of manurial treatments of the experiment were selected: one with mineral fertilizer only and three combinations of organic manure with mineral fertilizer: cattle manure + NPK, cattle manure + PK and straw + NPK. The SOM was extracted by sodium pyrophosphate solution (pH = 10) and hot water (100°C). The extracts were analysed by Fourier-Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The FT-IR spectra from sodium pyrophosphate extracts indicate that composition of SOM is indeed influenced by different fertilization. The C=O band at 1710 cm^–1 in the samples of the plots fertilized with cattle manure has the highest absorption intensity, whereas the material from the plot fertilized with straw + NPK has the least intense. The GPC analyses of the extracts showed that adding cattle manure + NPK increased the molecular size of SOM in comparison with the control plot. The analysis of hot-water extracts with FT-IR showed no significant differences in functional groups, but GPC chromatograms distinguished features in molecular size distribution. Fertilization with cattle manure increased the molecular size of the SOM in comparison with the control, but the differences in content of carboxylic groups and molecular weight were detected in sodium pyrophosphate extracts only.     

Bacterial oxidation of manganous ions as affected by organic substrate concentration and composition

The ability of a soil Arthrobacter sp. to oxidize manganous ions in agar media containing various proportions and concentrations of sucrose and yeast extract as substrates was examined. Oxidation occurred readily on media ranging from those containing no added substrate to those containing as much as 2 per cent substrate. A variety of patterns of manganese oxide deposition was observed in colonies on various media. On media enriched with yeast extract the oxide was confined to the colonies and consisted of numerous small specks. Enrichment of media with sucrose resulted in the oxide being deposited as large discrete specks both within the colonies and in the agar below and around them. Oxidation did not occur on media which became and remained more acid than pH 6.0 or on those that rapidly became alkaline (pH 8.0). Within these limits increasing substrate concentration improved both growth and oxidation. Both the direction and rate of pH change, and hence the onset of oxidation, were affected by the proportion and concentration of sucrose and yeast extract. Non-oxidizing colonies, on media that had become alkaline, rapidly became oxidizing when exposed to CO₂-enriched air. The location of oxidation on agar plates and the time required for the first visible evidence of oxidation on various media are explained on the basis of pH changes during growth.These results are discussed in relation to the selection of media for the isolation and enumeration of manganese-oxidizing micro-organisms, to manganese oxidation by fungi and to the availability of manganese in soils.     

土层性质对铜和铅在土壤中保持和迁移的影响

The mobility and bioavailability of heavy metals in soils is largely governed by sorption and desorption phenomena.Cu2+ and Pb2+ are among the most potentially toxic heavy metals and they are present,often concomitantly,in many polluting spills and in agrochemicals.The objective was to assess and compare the competitive sorption and desorption capacities and sorption hysteresis of Cu2+ and Pb2+,as well as their migration through the profiles of four natural soils:a Humic Umbrisol,an Umbric Cambisol,an Endoleptic Luvisol and a Humic Cambisol.In all horizons Pb2+ was invariably sorbed and retained to a greater extent than Cu2+.The sorption and retention of Cu2+ were most in?uenced by pH,e?ective cation exchange capacity(CECe) and Mn oxide content.On the other hand,the fixation capacity of Pb2+ was most in?uenced by pH,CECe,and Mn oxide and organic matter contents.pH and CECe were the individual soil properties most markedly in?uencing Cu2+ and Pb2+ sorption and retention.In all the horizons Pb2+ exhibited greater hysteresis than Cu2+.In each soil the hysteresis in the A horizon was greater than that in the B horizon,except in the Bt horizon of the Endoleptic Luvisol,due to its high pH and vermiculite content.Based on migration indices,Pb2+ was less mobile than Cu2+ in the studied soils.
