Studies on the properties of organic matfer in buried humic horizon derived from volcanic ash

To investigate the relationship between the change of humus property and time factor, the humus composition in the buried humic horizons with the age from 28,000 years B.P. to the present was studied, according to the method presented by Kumada et al. (7).

The fH decreased with the elapse of time and in case of most of humus in the buried humic horizons with the age over 10,000 years, the fH became lower than 40 and were in the form of so-called ‘combined’ humus.

When 3,000-4,000 years have passed since the surface soil buried, the humic acid first moved . to ‘combined form.’ Second, after over 10,000 years, the fulvic acid moved to ‘combined form.’

The humification of ‘free’ humic acid proceeded with the elapse of time till around 5,000 years but of 'combined' humic acid till around 7,000 years. Both the humification-degree of ‘free’ humic acid after around 5,000 years and of ‘combined’ humic acid after around 7,000 years decreased. The humification-degree of ‘free’ and ‘combined’ humic acid from the samples with the age about 15,000 years B.P. to 28,000 years B.P. may be the same.     

蔬菜连作对铜尾矿土壤中有机碳、腐殖质碳以及可溶性有机碳的影响

Carbon of humus acids （HSAC） and dissolved organic carbon （DOC） are the most active forms of soil organic carbon （SOC） and play an important role in global carbon recycling. We investigated the concentrations of HSAC, water-soluble organic carbon （WSOC）, hot water-extractable organic carbon （HWOC） and SOC in soils under different vegetation types of four copper mine tailings sites with differing vegetation succession time periods in Tongling, China. The concentrations of HSAC, WSOC, HWOC and SOC increased with vegetation succession. WSOC concentration increased with the accumulation of SOC in the tailings, and a linearly positive correlation existed between the concentrations of HSAC and SOC in the tailings. However, the percentages of HSAC and DOC in the SOC decreased during vegetation succession. The rate of SOC accumulation was higher when the succession time was longer than 20 years, whereas the speeds of soil organic matter （SOM） decomposition and humification were slow, and the concentrations of HSAC and DOC increased slowly in the tailings. The percentage of carbon of humic acid （HAC） in HSAC increased with vegetation succession, and the values of humification index （HI）, HAC/carbon of fulvic acid, also increased with the accumulation of HSAC and SOC in soils of the tailings sites. However, the HI value in the each of the tailings was less than 0.50. The humification rate of SOM was lower than the accumulation rate of SOM, and the level of soil fertility was still very low in the tailings even after 40 years of natural restoration.     

粘土矿物对土壤腐殖质化学性质的影响

Chemical characteristics of humic substances in soils with different mineralogical characteristics and under different utilization paterns in Zhangpu,Fujian Province,together with two pairs of cultivated soils in North China Plain were studied by chemical analysis,visible and IR spectroscopy and ^13C NMR spectrometry.For soils in Zhanpu the HA/FA ratio and both the aromaticity and the degree of humification of HA were higher in soils with montmorillonite as the predominant clay mineral than in those with kaolinite as the predominant clay mineral,provided these soils were under the same utilization pattern.While for each pair of soils with similar mineralogical characteristics the HA/FA ratio was higher and the C/H ratio and the contnet of carboxyl group of HA were lower in paddy soil than in upland soil.Among the upland soils(or paddy soils)studied the Ha/FA ratio of soil in Zhangpu with kaolinite as the predominant clay mineral was the lowest,and that of soil in Zhangpu with montmorillonite as the predominant clay mineral was the highest .the lowest.and that of soil in Zhangpu with montmorillonite as the predominant clay mineral was the highest It was concluded that the presence of montmorillonite favored the fromation and maturation of humic acid.     

秸秆还田深度对黑土腐殖质和酶活性的影响

在田间条件下对耕地黑土3个土层(0~15、15~30、0~30 cm)进行玉米秸秆还田试验,研究不同秸秆还田深度土壤腐殖质各组分含量、土壤酶活性的变化及其相关性。结果表明:还田深度0~15、15~30、0~30cm土壤总有机碳含量与初始相应层次土壤分别增加9.5%、9.9%、10.7%,与0~15 cm相比,秸秆还田深度为15~30 cm时,有利于土壤有机碳的积累。与初始相应层次土壤比,未秸秆还田的土壤总有机碳含量降低了5.8%。土壤各组分有机碳含量与土壤蔗糖酶活性之间显著(或极显著)相关,土壤胡敏素碳含量与土壤过氧化氢酶活性之间显著相关,土壤富里酸碳含量与土壤脲酶活性之间显著相关。

采用室内培养试验的方法,研究了秸秆加入条件下内陆盐碱土的腐殖质及其组分(胡敏酸、富里酸)的动态变化。结果表明,在秸秆腐解过程中,盐碱土腐殖质、富里酸、胡敏酸含量均呈现持续上升趋势,分别平均增加了112.5%,269.54%和92.9%富里酸的含量明显高于胡敏酸的含量,是胡敏酸含量的约3~10倍。土壤的HA/FA(腐殖酸/富里酸)呈现出先增长后降低的趋势,并且在90d时达到平均最高值(0.283)。尿素添加量7.2g的处理土壤腐殖质含量在0.19%~0.38%,该处理秸秆分解的速率最快。土壤腐殖质和富里酸随着尿素含量梯度的增加呈现先上升,后下降,再上升的趋势,且分别平均增加了46.7%和55.3%胡敏酸的变化趋势与腐殖质相反,平均减少了14.3%HA/FA呈下降趋势,但下降趋势不明显。     

生物炭对紫色土中腐植酸淋溶的影响

为了减少紫色土腐植酸的流失,提高龙川江流域紫色土肥力,采用土柱室内模拟方法,通过模拟降雨淋溶,研究了不同生物炭处理下(CK、1%、3%、5%和10%)对紫色土淋溶液p H值、电导率、体积以及胡敏酸和富里酸的影响。结果表明:在29 d试验过程中,淋溶液的p H值和电导率随着生物炭比例增加而增加;与CK相比,在1%、3%、5%和10%的生物炭处理条件下紫色土水分损失分别减少了6.33%、10.13%、16.46%和25.32%;胡敏酸浓度和累积淋失量随着生物炭比例增加而减小;除了1%和3%之外,富里酸浓度和累积淋失量也随着生物炭比例增加而减小;生物炭比例为10%的处理条件下对紫色土淋溶液中胡敏酸和富里酸浓度及累积淋失量最小,胡敏酸浓度和累积淋失量分别为1.46 mg/L、0.12 mg,富里酸浓度和累积淋失量分别为149.64 mg/L、29.60 mg,该处理有利于更大程度吸附胡敏酸和富里酸,减少其流失。     

Effect of humic acid and fulvic acid based liquid and foliar fertilizers on the yield of wheat crop

Abstract

An organic-mineral liquid fertigation fertilizer containing humic acid, nitrogen (N)–phosphorus (P)–potassium (K), zinc (Zn), sulfur (S), manganese (Mn) and a liquid foliar fertilizer consisting of fulvic acid and gibberellic acids were formulated and applied to wheat. The purpose of this study was to develop an efficient and cost effective liquid and foliar fertilizer and compare their potential with commercially available urea and DAP. The fulvic acid and humic acids were obtained by alkaline extraction of lignite coal. All the treatments were significant over the control. The application of the liquid fertigation fertilizer and liquid foliar fertilizer along with 50?kg of urea per acre showed the best results biological yield (grain plus straw yield). It was found that the highest yield was obtained in T₆ treatment and the second best results were obtained with T₂ treatment, but has a high cost, while treatment T₆ was the most significant economical and yielded a high income when compared to other treatments.     

不同类型土壤中241Am形态分析及其在土壤-植物系统中的迁移

Monitoring the behavior of radioactive contaminants associated with military applications,nuclear power facilities,and interim storage of radioactive waste materials is of significant concern in radiological analysis.Four sequential extraction schemes（SES） for fractionation of ²⁴¹Am were compared using five different types of soils,Vertisol,Cambisol,Chromic Luvisol,Eutric Fluvisol,and mixed urban soil,collected from different parts of Bulgaria.The results for the exchangeable ²⁴¹ Am were in a wide range and depended on the SES used.Soil ²⁴¹Am varied from 0.5%to 6%in the exchangeable phase,from 0.5%to 35%in the carbonate phase,from0.4%to 36%in the reducible phase（easily reducible and moderately reducible）,from 3%to 17%in the oxidizable phase,and from10%to 50%in the residual phase.After 100 d of contamination,around 50%of soil ²⁴¹Am was permanently fixed in the residual phase.There was strong evidence that the preferable soil phase for ²⁴¹ Am was the carbonate phase.The transfer factor of ²⁴¹ Am in the soil-plant system depended on ²⁴¹Am in the easily oxidizable phase（fulvic acid（FA）+humic acid（HA） phase）.These confirmed the applicability of the National Institute of Standards and Technology（NIST） sequential extraction scheme for fractionation of soil²⁴¹ Am since it includes extraction of FA+HA phase and then the carbonate phase.     

施用有机物料对土壤镉形态的影响

采用室内培养试验,研究作物新鲜秸秆和腐熟猪粪对模拟镉（Cd）污染的土壤中Cd形态转化的动态影响。结果表明,各处理土壤交换态Cd含量随培养时间均逐渐降低。碳酸盐结合态和铁锰氧化物结合态Cd含量先增加后降低, 而有机质结合态和残渣态Cd含量则逐渐增加。添加秸秆可增加土壤交换态Cd含量,但随时间延长,增幅逐渐降低, 猪粪则可降低土壤交换态Cd含量。添加有机物后土壤交换态Cd含量的变化主要是由有机质结合态或残渣态Cd含量的变化而引起。秸秆和猪粪对土壤Cd形态的转化与土壤胡敏酸（HA）和富里酸（FA）的变化有关。秸秆对能活化土壤Cd的FA增加幅度大于对能钝化土壤Cd的HA增加幅度,降低HA/FA比,但降幅随时间逐渐减少; 猪粪在整个培养阶段对HA增加幅度均大于FA的增加幅度,增加HA/FA比。秸秆和猪粪均可降低潮土pH而提高红壤pH,但只有猪粪可通过提高红壤pH降低Cd向交换态转化。添加秸秆和猪粪后,Cd由低活性态向交换态转化与HA/FA呈显著负相关。     

Physiological Effects of Different Combinations of Humic and Fulvic Acid on Gerbera

Flower quality loss, especially short postharvest life, is a major problem in gerbera production. An experiment was conducted to determine how different combinations of humic substances (HS) affect gerbera. Humic acid (HA) and fulvic acid (FA) applied to nutrient solutions in six combinations including control (nutrient solution only), 80 mg L^?1 HA + 20 mg L^?1 FA, 60 mg L^?1 HA + 40 mg L^?1 FA, 40 mg L^?1 HA + 60 mg L^?1 FA, 100 mg L^?1 FA, and 50 mg L^?1 FA. The HS application enhanced root architecture, nutrient content, number of harvested flowers, and vase life. Fifty (50) mg L^?1 FA extended vase life by 8 days and increased flower number (72.9%). Results suggest that HA and FA (especially 50 mg L^?1 FA) can improve quality and quantity of gerbera through improving root architecture, leading to enhanced nutrient uptake and possibly affecting hormone-like activities. It seems that using low concentrations of FA may be part of a solution in improving gerbera flower quality.     

Characterization of water soluble organic matter in soils by size exclusion chromatography and fractionation with polyvinylpyrrolidone

Water extracts were obtained from four types of soils (Brown Lowland soil, Yellow soil with manure application for 6 years, non-allophanic Andosol, and allophanic Andosol), and the organic matter in the water extracts was fractionated according to the solubility in acid and adsorption onto polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). For the water extracts and their fractions, the amounts of organic C, total N, and anthrone-reactive C (ARC) were analyzed, and high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) was carried out. The PVP-non-adsorbed fulvic acid (FA) fraction accounted for the largest proportion of the total water-soluble organic C, ranging from 52% for the Yellow soil to 96% for the allophanic Amdosol, followed by the PVP-adsorbed FA and humic acid (HA) fractions. The water extract of the allophanic Andosol was characterized by the lack of HA fraction and a small proportion of PVP-adsorbed FA fraction. For all the water extract samples, more than 90% of the ARC was recovered in the PVP-non-adsorbed FA fraction. The proportion of ARC in the total organic C in the fraction was also highest in the PVP-non-adsorbed FA fraction. The molecular weight (MW) of the humic substances (HS) at peak maximum was estimated at 1,300 Da for the water extracts and their fractions from the Brown Lowland soil and non-allophanic Andosol samples by HPSEC using polyethylene glycols as MW standards. Manure application increased the MW of HS in the HA and PVP-adsorbed FA fractions. On the other hand, only a small amount of HS was found in the water extract of the allophanic Andosol by HPSEC.     

Nitrogen in humic and fulvic acid fractions from a volcanic soil under pine: recovery efficiency of two extractants

The nitrogen content of humic and fulvic acid fractions recovered in parallel with sodium hydroxide and a mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium pyrophosphate from a volcanic soil under pine was determined. Despite minor differences for some horizons, the values found by the two methods were similar. Furthermore, the ratio between the N contents in the humic and fulvic acid fractions (Nh : Nf) was independent of the nature of the extractant. This fact and the facility of the determination suggest investigating if the Nh: Nf ratio can be used as indicator for the quality of soil organic matter.     

Changes in soil properties and humic substances after long‐term amendments with manure and crop residues in dryland farming systems

After 16 years of periodical applications of either farmyard manure or crop wastes at two levels of mineral N fertilization to a Calcic Haploxeralf in the semiarid central Spain, we found significant changes in chemical fertility levels and in the concentration, chemical composition, and carbon mineralization rates of soil organic matter (SOM). The changes in SOM quality were related to significant improvements of soil physical properties, mainly aggregate stability and water retention. Such changes were related to the increased concentration of humic colloids in soil, the mineral N dose, and the type of organic matter applied. When compared with the control plots, the organic matter accumulated in the amended plots tended to be less transformed, and its total concentration and humification degree decreased with increasing external N‐inputs. Humic acids from the amended plots showed a more marked aliphatic character (mainly after N addition) than those from control plots. Farmyard manure led to a significant improvement of soil physical properties, but had a comparatively small effect in promoting biodegradation and humification of crop wastes. This could be due to the high biological stability of the manure used which, in semiarid Mediterranean fields, usually leads to an accumulation of little transformed SOM.     

重金属影响下有机物料分解与转化的研究

通过室内培养实验，初步研究了重金属Cd、Pb影响下。猪粪和玉米秸秆在土壤中的分解与转化规律。结果表明；添加重金属后。有机物料的分解与转化和有机物料种类、用量以及重金属类型有关。一般来看，与不添加重金属的非污染土相比。有机物料低用量（1％用量）条件下。单加Cd有抑制其分解的趋势，单加Pb则有促进其分解的趋势．同时加Cd、Pb也有抑制其分解的趋势；而高用量（5％用量）条件下，无论单加还是同时加Cd、Pb都有抑制其分解的趋势。有机物料低用量时更有利于胡敏酸（HA）形成，而高用量时则更有利于富里酸（FA）形成。有机物料低用量使HA、FA的分子结构都变得复杂化。从环境保护和提高经济效益两方面综合考虑，重金属污染土壤中有机物料施用量不宜过高。     

Effects of humic and fulvic acids on growth of tobacco. 2. Tobacco growth and ion uptake 1

Experiments were conducted in growth chambers of the Phytotron to evaluate the effects of humic and fulvic acids on growth and ion uptake by tobacco plants grown to flowering.

When small amounts of humic or fulvic acids were added to media used to grow seedlings, the dry weight of roots and tops and the height of the plants subsequently grown in a nutrient solution with small amounts of humic or fulvic acids increased, while at high rates of humic acids they decreased. Generally, there was a trend for low rates of humic acids to increase concentration of Ca and Mg in roots and leaves and to decrease Fe concentration in roots.

The total content of N, K, P, Ca, Mg and Fe in the stalk and leaves increased in the presence of small amounts of humic or fulvic acids in the nutrient solution. Low rates of humic or fulvic acids in the growth medium facilitated the adsorption of Ca, Mg and Fe and their translocation within the plant. For high rates of humic acids there was a trend to decrease the total content of N, K, P, Ca and Fe in the roots and leaves of the plant.     

施用猪粪对棕壤胡敏酸和富里酸热力学参数的影响

应用Vodyanitsky提出的方法，根据元素组成数据，计算了施用猪粪对棕壤胡敏酸(HA)、富里酸(FA)热力学参数的影响。结果表明，HA、FA的形成都是自发进行的放热反应；与HA相比，FA的能态较低，分子结构有序度和热稳定性较高；FA在土壤中比HA更容易形成。施用猪粪后，HA、FA的能态降低，分子结构有序度和热稳定性也降低，形成的自发性减弱且放热量减少，这些与它们元素组成的变化有关。     

秸秆和猪粪的施用对土壤镉有效性的影响和机理研究

用盆栽试验研究作物秸秆和腐熟猪粪对土壤镉（Cd）有效性的影响及机理。结果表明,施用秸秆促进油麦菜对Cd的吸收,而施用猪粪降低油麦菜对Cd的吸收,这主要是由于秸秆显著地增加了交换态Cd含量,而猪粪则显著降低交换态Cd含量。秸秆或猪粪对交换态Cd含量的影响则主要与土壤胡敏酸（HA）和富里酸（FA）的变化有关。施用秸秆对土壤中FA增加幅度大于对HA的增加幅度,即HA/FA比值降低。而施用猪粪则增加了HA/FA比值。相关分析表明,施用秸秆和猪粪情况下土壤HA/FA与交换态Cd含量之间呈显著负相关关系（P＜0.05）。结果还表明,秸秆和猪粪对土壤交换态Cd含量的影响还与其对腐殖酸芳构化程度的影响有关,添加猪粪比添加秸秆的土壤腐殖酸芳构化程度大。因此,有机物质对土壤Cd有效性的影响与土壤有机质组成的变化密切相关。
