Aggregate and organic matter dynamics in reclaimed soils as indicated by stable carbon isotopes

Recovery of belowground ecosystem processes, such as soil aggregation and organic matter (OM) accumulation, in reconstructed soils is crucial to successful reclamation of disturbed lands. Objectives of this study were to track soil aggregate recovery in combination with aggregate associated OM on a chronosequence of reclaimed surface mine sites and a native, undisturbed reference site. Macroaggregate and micro-within-macroaggregate proportions increased with reclamation age, while microaggregate proportions decreased. Organic carbon (C) and total nitrogen (N) concentrations increased with reclamation age for each aggregate fraction and were higher in the OM fraction observed within soil aggregates than in the free OM fraction found between soil aggregates. Naturally occurring isotopic signatures of ¹³C decreased rapidly with reclamation age, indicating over 50% of total aggregate C to be new C from predominately C₃ plant community inputs after 26 years of reclamation. Soil aggregate size distribution trends of increasing macroaggregation and micro-within-macroaggregates along with rapid rates of OM accumulation with time indicated that reclaimed soils had recovered structurally towards a native soil condition after a period of 10-15 years.     

Effect of vegetation cover on the hydrology of reclaimed mining soils under Mediterranean-Continental climate

Vegetation cover plays a major role in the restoration and stabilization of disturbed systems. The analysis of relationships between restored vegetation and soil hydrology has special relevance for the evaluation and operation of mining reclamation, particularly in Mediterranean-Continental environments, where climatic conditions restrict the development of continuous vegetation cover. The effect of herbaceous vegetation cover on soil hydrology was analysed by means of rainfall simulation (63 mm h^− 1; 0.24 m²) in reclaimed soils derived from opencast coal mining (a non-saline and clay-loam textured spoil) in central-eastern Spain. A total of 75 simulation experiments were conducted at three different times throughout the year (late winter, summer and autumn) to control the influence of seasonal climatic fluctuations. Sediment concentrations in runoff and the runoff coefficient decreased exponentially with vegetation cover, while increases in steady infiltration rates were obtained with vegetation cover. Additional delays in runoff responses (longer time to runoff start and stabilization) and increases in the wetting front depth were observed with vegetation cover. Seasonal variations in soil surface state and moisture strongly influenced hydrological responses; although the influence of season on the analysed hydrological responses was attenuated by vegetation cover, especially in the case of infiltration rates. We also determined a practical ground cover threshold for site restoration and evaluation of over 50% vegetation cover, which could help achieve an optimum biological control of hydrological soil responses in the studied environment.     

Accumulation of carbon,nitrogen and phosphorus during soil formation on alder spoil heaps after brown-coal mining,near Sokolov (Czech Republic)

The accumulation of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) and their vertical distribution in the soil profile in relation to site age were studied in a chronosequence of 19 sites on reclaimed spoil heaps from open-cast coal mining, near Sokolov (Czech Republic) and compared to a semi-natural alder forest in the vicinity of the mining area. The reclaimed sites were located on tertiary clay or quaternary gravel–sand spoil material and afforested with alder species (Alnus glutinosa, A. incana) 4–65 years ago.Rapid accumulation of C and N in the soil profile was registered within 15 years after reclamation. The rate of increase in C and N contents in the whole profile and the thickness of the litter and fermentation layers was slower in 25-year-old and older reclaimed sites. The soil of the semi-natural alder forest was richer in C and N in the 5–10-cm layer compared with 40-year-old (clays) and even with 65-year-old (gravel–sand) reclaimed soils. N accumulated more slowly in comparison with C, especially in deeper (5–10 cm) parts of the profile. Accumulation of organic C resulted in a decrease in substrate pH from alkaline, which was characteristic of young sites, to slightly acidic on older sites. The pH decreased gradually with increasing site age in all soil layers but increased with depth in the soil profile. In contrast to C and N, P content did not significantly change with site age in any layer of the soil profile. The highest amount of P was found in the fermentation layer, but there was no difference to the other layers. The soil profile of the semi-natural sites was richer in P in comparison to 40-year-old reclaimed ones.     

黏土夹层位置对黄河泥沙充填复垦土壤水分入渗的影响

在中国东部地区,土地复垦的一项重要任务是将采煤沉陷地复垦为耕地,复垦后的耕地生产力水平应接近损毁前的水平。然而,采用传统的黄河泥沙一次性充填后覆盖一定厚度土壤层的复垦方式,复垦后土壤持水性差,生产力水平低。夹层式充填复垦能够有效改善传统充填复垦土壤的水分特性,该文研究夹层位置对黄河泥沙填复垦土壤水分入渗过程的影响,共设计当地普通农田土壤剖面(CK1),传统"上土下沙"土壤剖面构型(CK2)及5个夹层式土壤剖面构型处理T1～T5:在60 cm厚的黄河泥沙充填层中的不同位置夹20 cm厚心土层(黏土层),夹层距离表土距离分别为50 cm(T1),55 cm(T2),60 cm(T3),65 cm(T4)及70 cm(T5)。通过室内入渗试验,分析不同位置设置夹层后土壤水分入渗特性及含水率分布情况,优选适应于该地区的夹层式土壤剖面构型。结果表明:入渗率随着夹层深度的增加呈先增加后减小的趋势,即夹层位置距离土表55cm为一临界深度,此时重构土壤的入渗率最低、湿润锋的运移速度最慢、阻水效果最强,但考虑到研究区强降雨天气,易形成地表径流。当心土夹层位置距离土表60cm时,更接近普通农田土壤水分入渗特性,是黄河泥沙夹层式充填复垦的理想选择。该研究对深入探讨黄河泥沙夹层式充填复垦内部作用机理和指导滨黄河地区采煤沉陷地的土地复垦具有重要意义。

Post-reclamation Age Effects on Soil Physical Properties and Microbial Activity Under Forest and Pasture Ecosystems

During surface mining and subsequent reclamation efforts, physical, chemical, and biological properties of soils are disturbed. A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of age chronosequence on soil physical property and microbial activity in chronosequence reclaimed sites covering successional ages in the ranges 1, 4, 8, 11, and 13 years under forest and pasture ecosystems. The adjacent normal and unmined pasture and forest were used as a control for comparison purposes. The study site was located at the Red Hill Mine in east central Mississippi (approximately 33.3 N latitude and 89 W longitude), which is used by the North America Mining Company, LLC. Soil samples were collected from the reclaimed and unmined sites at 0–15- and 15–30-cm depth and analyzed for selected soil quality indicators. Results indicated that water stable aggregate and infiltration were increased, but soil bulk density and compaction decreased with increasing reclamation age. Soil penetration resistance was greater in the pasture than forest ecosystem. All reclaimed soils had less microbial enzyme activity than an unmined forest ecosystem; however, bacteria population level after 11 years since reclamation was similar to that of unmined forest soils. Soil organic carbon increased with increasing reclamation age strongly correlated with soil physical indicators and appears to be the main driving force during the development of soil physical and biological properties in the humid southeast.

围垦对杭州湾南岸滨海湿地土壤养分分布的影响

在杭州湾南岸典型滨海湿地以空间代时间的方法,采集不同围垦年代的自然湿地土壤和围垦后利用土壤,研究了湿地土壤有机质、N和P的空间分布规律及围垦利用对养分空间分布的影响。结果表明,随围垦时间的增加,土壤表层全P含量表现为增加的趋势,围垦5年、25年和50年土壤全P含量比未围垦光滩分别增加12%、25%和76%;土壤有机质则表现为先降低后增加趋势,围垦5年和围垦25年土壤有机质相比未围垦光滩分别减少14%和50%,围垦50年则比未围垦光滩增加87%;土壤全N的分布趋势和有机质基本一致。对养分剖面分布的分析表明,围垦及其利用等人为干扰活动对养分的影响主要集中于土壤表层。相关性分析显示,土壤中全N含量与有机质含量呈现出显著的正相关,说明在土壤中N主要是以有机N的形态存在,而全P含量与有机质含量的关系不显著。土壤颗粒组成与土壤中有机质、N素等养分含量有较为明显的关系,有机质、全N与物理性黏粒(<0.01mm)的各组分都表现为显著或极显著正相关;土壤中P素与土壤质地的关系则并不是很密切。研究表明,围垦及其利用引起的土壤水分和质地等物理性质的变化以及不同围垦历史是影响湿地土壤养分空间分布的主要因素。     

安太堡煤矿区不同复垦年限和复垦模式土壤氮矿化及硝化特征

为揭示煤矿复垦区土壤氮素内循环中的矿化及硝化特征,探索不同复垦模式与不同复垦年限下复垦土壤的氮素转化效率,采集山西安太堡露天煤矿中复垦3年、9年、21年苜蓿地及3年荞麦地表层（0~20 cm）土壤,并以3年自然恢复和未复垦新排土为对照,采用间歇淋洗好气培养法与恒温培养法研究各采样地土壤矿化与硝化过程,利用一级反应动力学模型与Logistic方程对有机氮素的矿化与硝化数据进行拟合。结果表明,3年苜蓿地的矿化速率最高,21年苜蓿地的矿化速率最低,且土壤氮素快速矿化主要在培养前7 d,之后逐渐平缓,并在28 d趋于稳定。经一级动力学方程拟合可知,氮矿化势（N_o）的变化范围为89.28~124.51 mg·kg^-1,21年苜蓿地 > 3年自然恢复地 > 3年苜蓿地 > 3年荞麦地 > 未复垦新排土 > 9年苜蓿地;矿化速率常数（k）的变化范围为0.022 6~0.051 9,3年苜蓿地 > 9年苜蓿地 > 未复垦新排土 > 3年自然恢复地 > 3年荞麦地 > 21年苜蓿地。氮矿化势与土壤有机质含量显著正相关（r=0.91）。复垦区各土壤随培养时间的延长硝态氮含量大致为"S"型曲线且可分为3个阶段：前期阶段（0~5 d）-上升阶段（5~14 d）-稳定阶段（14~28 d）;Logistic方程拟合结果显示：复垦年限显著影响硝化高峰出现的时间（不同复垦年限苜蓿地最大相差6.85 d）,21年苜蓿地硝化过程剧烈而短促,3年自然恢复地的硝化过程缓慢而漫长;耕地较草地有更大的硝化速率与更长的硝化时间。长期的种植苜蓿复垦显著提高了土壤的氮库容量,矿化过程更为平稳。     

Decomposition and soil biota after reclamation of coal mine spoils in an arid region

Summary We compared soil biota and buried wheat straw decomposition on sites subject to topsoiling plus straw mulch reclamation procedures 1–4 years prior to our study and on an unmined site. Rates of straw decomposition were highest on the unmined site. Decomposition rates were higher on the 1- and 2-year-old sites than on the 3- and 4-year-old reclaimed spoil. Microarthropod population densities and number of taxa were greater from decomposing straw on the unmined site and lowest from straw on the 1- and 2-year-old areas. Soil bacteria, fungi, and protozoan populations on buried straw on the oldest reclaimed sites were generally equal to those on the unmined area. Nematode populations on buried straw in the unmined site and 1- and 2-year-old reclaimed sites were similar. Populations of denitrifying bacteria were larger on recently reclaimed sites than on 3- and 4-year-old sites. Decomposition and nitrogen mineralization varied as a function of the diversity and abundance of soil microarthropods. Soil microfauna can serve as an index of soil development in a disturbed arid soil.     

煤炭基地复垦村庄土壤重金属污染生态风险评价

对煤炭基地的复垦村庄进行土壤重金属潜在生态风险评价,可以指出在村庄复垦中应该特别注意的物质,减少煤炭开采后有可能会造成土地污染并提高村庄复垦后的耕地质量。以山西省泽州县西郜村的压煤复垦村庄为研究区域,在分析了该地区土壤重金属含量的基础上,以山西省土壤重金属元素背景值为评价标准,采用潜在危害指数法对土壤重金属污染状况进行评价。研究结果表明,压煤复垦村庄不同层次土壤的综合污染程度范围为6.05~14.92,平均处于中等污染程度;从单个要素上来看,各种重金属污染系数平均值由高到低为:Hg > Pb > As > Cd > Cr,Hg属于较高的污染水平,其重金属潜在风险指数在75.9～275.19之间,有一半样点的潜在生态风险达到了中等程度;Hg潜在生态风险达到了较高污染程度,需要在复垦过程中进行治理。对煤炭基地复垦土壤重金属进行潜在生态风险评价,有助于掌握土壤重金属污染特征和分布规律,为复垦后耕地的重金属污染控制与修复提供一定的依据,促进土地资源的可持续利用。     

煤矸石充填复垦地理化特性与重金属分布特征

为研究煤矸石充填复垦地农作物产量达到最佳时的覆土厚度及煤矸石充填复垦地重金属分布状况,该文以新庄孜矿煤矸石充填复垦地作为研究对象,采取室外田间小区试验和室内试验分析方法,选取不同覆土厚度50~60,60~70,70~80,80~90 cm的4类试验地块及对照地块对其土壤理化性质及农作物根系分布、长势产量、重金属元素含量进行调查分析,发现复垦地块各项指标与对照地块差异显著,劣于对照地块;煤矸石充填基质土壤理化性质较差;70~80 cm的厚度是煤矸石充填复垦造地较经济合理的覆土厚度。煤矸石复垦地重金属元素有向上迁移的趋势;复垦土壤及煤矸石基质中Pb、Zn、Cr元素含量处于安全水平;大部分监测的Cu、Ni、Cd元素含量高于淮南土壤背景值,低于中国土壤环境质量标准二级标准,对复垦土壤已构成潜在的威胁性,应予以重视;覆土厚度50~60 cm地块的煤矸石基质中Cu、Ni元素含量处于安全水平,煤矸石基质中Cd元素含量高于淮南土壤土壤背景值,低于中国土壤环境质量标准二级标准,应予以重视。结果表明70~80 cm的厚度是煤矸石充填复垦造地最佳覆土厚度;新庄孜煤矸石充填复垦地重金属有向上迁移的趋势,复垦土壤中重金属含量符合国家二级标准,未出现重金属污染情况,但部分重金属元素含量高于淮南市土壤背景值,应予以重视。     

Assessing Impacts of Crested Wheatgrass AND Native Species Establishment on Soil Characteristics in Reclaimed LAND Using Bayesian Posterior Predictive Distributions

We examined the interacting effects of drastic disturbance and re‐vegetation communities on the development of soil properties over time. We compared soil characteristics from an undisturbed reference site with reclaimed mine sites that differed by vegetation type and time since reclamation: Three sites were seeded solely with crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum) (11, 16, and 29 years old), and two were seeded with native cool‐season grass mixes (14 and 26 years old). We sampled soil at two depths (0–5 and 5–15 cm) for soil macroaggregate and microaggregate weights, aggregate carbon to nitrogen (C : N) ratios, and microbial abundance. We employed a Bayesian bivariate model to account for potential correlations in soil properties across depths and compared soil properties across sites using posterior predictive distributions. We found that all reclaimed soils, regardless of vegetation type, had total aggregate weights that were similar to the undisturbed reference soil but had a larger proportion of macroaggregates than the reference soil. Aggregate C : N ratios were similar between the undisturbed reference and crested wheatgrass soils, while the reclaimed native cool‐season grass soils had lower C : N ratios in the top 5 cm. Total microbial abundance in soils seeded with crested wheatgrass was an order of magnitude lower than that in soils occupied by native species (both reclaimed and undisturbed). The presence of crested wheatgrass on the reclaimed sites alone did not differentiate all soil properties across our reclamation sites, but seeding this single, aggressive species may have contributed to maintaining different belowground characteristics on reclaimed soils.

Humus accumulation, humification, and humic acid composition in soils of two post-mining chronosequences after coal mining

Purpose

To assess how the rates of humus formation and humification are affected by land use and age of ecosystems, this study investigated soil development in two post-mining chronosequences (spoil heaps formed from open-cast coal mining near Sokolov, Czech Republic). The following characteristics were measured: content, composition, and properties of humic acids; organic carbon (C) and total nitrogen (N) contents; pH; and amorphous iron content.

Materials and methods

Two chronosequences were studied. One consisted of unreclaimed spontaneously revegetated spoils (3, 12, 20, and 40 years old). The other consisted of heaps that were reclaimed by planting alder in graded heaps (7, 15, 20, 30, and 40 years old). Humus and iron contents as well as pH were determined, and humic acids were extracted for detailed chemical analyses (C, H, N, ¹³C-NMR, and pyrolysis mass-spectrometry).

Results and discussion

C and N accumulated faster in the reclaimed sites than in the unreclaimed sites; organic matter accumulation results in the decrease of pH in all soils and in spontaneous sites also increase of amorphous iron content. Humic acids (HA) and fulvic acids (FA) increased with the site age in both chronosequences. The CHA/CFA was higher in the reclaimed soils than in the unreclaimed soils, and the CHA/CFA ratio increased with age in the unreclaimed soils. Humic acid aromaticity was higher in the reclaimed site than in the unreclaimed sites but increased with the age of unreclaimed sites. H and O content decreased with age of reclaimed soils. Humification led to an increase in HA caloricity in the reclaimed sites but not in unreclaimed sites because of the influence of residual wax-type substances in the unreclaimed sites. Degree of HA oxidation (ω) for the reclaimed plots was similar to that in typical zonal soils but was highly variable in unreclaimed soils.

Conclusions

Relative to spontaneous revegetation in the unreclaimed sites, reclamation increased the rates of humus accumulation, humification, and humus acid transformations. The differences between reclaimed and unreclaimed sites, however, decreased with site age and were very small in 40-year-old sites. These differences correspond to the rapid colonization of the reclaimed sites and the slow colonization of the unreclaimed sites by soil biota.     

煤矿区复垦土壤压实时空变异特征

为了揭示煤矿区复垦土壤压实状况的时空变异规律,该文以未塌陷土地为对照,通过实地测定,分析5个复垦年限水平和垂直方面的土壤压实度变异特征。结果表明：复垦土壤表层压实度以复垦1 a（正在复垦）的最大,达到 2050 kPa,随着复垦年限增加逐渐减少,复垦5 a的最小（50 kPa）,基本达到未塌陷土地的压实度。表层土壤压实度空间变异最大的是复垦5 a的土地（变异系数为68.40%）,其次是未塌陷土地（52.58%）,最小的是正在复垦的土地 （22.01%）。从各层的变异情况看,正在复垦的土地各个层次土壤压实度都较大且变异系数较低,其他复垦年限土壤压实度上面3层较小但变异大,至第4层（22.86～30.48 cm）达到较高值,且变异较小,之下压实度基本稳定。     

海州露天煤矿排土场复垦区不同土地利用类型土壤入渗特征

为揭示排土场复垦区不同土地利用类型土壤的水源涵养功能,采用野外实地双环入渗试验和室内理化分析方法,系统地研究了海州露天煤矿排土场复垦区不同土地利用类型(乔木林地、灌木林地、农用地、荒草地)土壤入渗特性及其影响因素。结果表明:不同土地利用类型下的土壤初始入渗率、稳定入渗率和累计入渗量均表现为乔木林地灌木林地农用地荒草地;不同土地利用类型下土壤入渗过程的拟合优度存在差异,G-P综合模型、Kastiakov模型、Horton模型的平均拟合优度依次为0.926,0.908,0.905。G-P综合模型相对误差为79.21%~123.69%,更接近排土场复垦区土壤入渗的实际过程,可作为排土场复垦区土壤入渗过程的预测模型;不同土地利用类型下土壤初始入渗率与非毛管孔隙度呈显著正相关,稳定入渗率和累计入渗量与非毛管孔隙度、砾石含量和部分根系特征呈显著正相关;采用主成分分析评价的土壤入渗能力排序为乔木林地灌木林地农用地荒草地,初始入渗率、稳定入渗率、14min入渗率和累积入渗量的主成分方差累积贡献率为99.047%,较好地表达了土壤入渗能力。     

Infiltration in reclaimed mined land ameliorated with deep tillage treatments

Reclamation of mined land with heavy machinery can result in soil compaction. Compaction increases soil bulk density and reduces porosity, water infiltrability, root elongation and crop productivity. Mine operators have used deep tillage equipment to alleviate the compaction problem. The main objectives of this study were to examine (1) the effect on infiltration in reclaimed surface mined land of a deep tillage treatment, and (2) the subsequent changes in infiltration after the amelioration. The experiment was conducted at the Horse Creek Mine near Conant, Perry County, IL, USA. The soil was classified as Schuline series, which is a fine, loamy, mixed, mesic, Typic Udorthents. The treatments included tillage depths of 20 (as a control), 40, 60 and 80 cm. Infiltrometers and runoff plots were installed to evaluate infiltration and rainfall-runoff relationships affected by the treatments. Results indicated that the steady infiltration rates of the 40- and 60-cm tillage treatments were lower than that of the control treatment successively during the experimental period for 3 years. Results also revealed that the 80-cm tillage treatment increased infiltration and reduced surface runoff most. Even though the beneficial effects declined over a 3-year test period, the 80-cm tillage is recommended in the amelioration of soil compaction because tillage depths less than 80 cm did not enhance water infiltration rate much.     

高潜水位平原区采煤塌陷地复垦土壤形态发育评价

土壤的形态特征含有丰富的环境信息,是环境变化与生态重建的重要依据,可以推断土壤发育的强弱。矿山复垦土壤为人造新土壤,可能构造出不同的土壤形态,复垦土壤形态特征的研究对复垦土壤生产力的提高和复垦技术的革新具有重要意义。该文以高潜水位平原区采煤塌陷地复垦土壤为研究对象,探讨定量评价复垦土壤形态发育状况。研究采用实地调查和室内分析相结合的方法,依据中国土壤系统分类用土壤剖面描述标准,构建了复垦土壤形态发育评价体系,进行土壤形态定量评价。结果表明,形态发育指数HI(土层发育指数)和WPDI(土壤权重剖面发育指数)能够较好的反映复垦土壤与当地原状土壤的发育程度差异:复垦土壤土层发育指数HI和土壤权重剖面发育指数WPDI平均值分别为0.57、0.56,而当地原状土壤HI和WPDI的平均值为0.68、0.69,表明复垦土壤形态发育程度相对较弱;HI曲线形状异于原状土壤,表层HI高于其他土层,不同复垦方式的WPDI显示的发育程度序列为:充填复垦(外源土)>挖深垫浅>挖深垫浅(泥浆泵)>充填复垦(粉煤灰、煤矸石等);随复垦时间的延长,复垦土壤发育程度呈现增长趋势。
