贵州草海沉积物-水界面无机汞和甲基汞的扩散通量

以贵州省草海湖泊沉积物孔隙水为研究对象,实测其溶解态甲基汞和溶解态无机汞的质量浓度,并根据质量浓度梯度和菲克第一定律,初步估算了沉积物-水界面溶解态无机汞和甲基汞的扩散通量.结果表明:不同季节沉积物孔隙水中无机汞、甲基汞与上覆水体中的无机汞、甲基汞之间均存在质量浓度梯度,其溶解态无机汞的质量浓度梯度在枯水期和丰水期分别为8.6 ng/L和25.1 ng/L;溶解态甲基汞的质量浓度梯度分别为0.46 ng/L和2.7 ng/L.在枯水期和丰水期沉积物孔隙水中无机汞的释放通量分别为31.4 ng/(m2.d)和52.8 ng/(m2.d);甲基汞的释放通量分别为1.7 ng/(m2.d)和3.9 ng/(m2.d).沉积物-水界面无机汞和甲基汞的扩散通量远低于同背景区的阿哈湖、红枫湖,并存在明显的季节性变化,其变化与孔隙水中汞的质量浓度的季节性变化一致,均为在丰水期的扩散通量大于在枯水期.

A Preliminary Study of the Diffuse Flux of Inorganic Mercury and Methylmercury at the Sediment-Water Interface of Lake Caohai, Guizhou Province

In this study,seasonal distribution of dissolved inorganic mercury and methylmercury concentrations of the pore water was studied in Lake Caohai,and the diffuse flux of inorganic mercury and methylmercury at the sediment-water interface was estimated by concentration gradient and Fick,s first law.In the low flow period and the high flow period the concentration gradient of inorganic mercury was 8.6 ng/L and 25.1 ng/L and that of dissolved methylmercury was 0.46 ng/L and 2.7 ng/L,respectively;and the diffuse...
