中国三个不同富营养化湖泊沉积物中Cu、Zn赋存特征及其与营养盐的相关性分析

对太湖、南四湖、白洋淀三个不同富营养化湖泊沉积物进行采样,采用Tessier连续提取法,测定了3个湖泊表层沉积物中Cu、Zn两种重金属的赋存形态,并初步探讨了重金属各形态与沉积物及上覆水中营养盐的相关关系。结果表明,沉积物中重金属总量以白洋淀最高,太湖最低,但重金属污染程度为太湖＆gt;南四湖＆gt;白洋淀,太湖Cu污染指数为1.34~1.6,白洋淀Cu污染指数仅为0.79~1.17。沉积物中重金属赋存形态Cu主要以残渣态和有机质结合态为主（二者之和占73%以上）, Zn则以残渣态和Fe-Mn氧化态占优（二者之和比例达83%以上）,含量最少的均为可交换态。不同湖泊沉积物重金属赋存形态差异较大,太湖残渣态重金属占总量的比例最小（Cu为43%~56%,Zn为49%~63%）,南四湖残渣态占的比例最大（Cu为59%~82%、Zn为64%~77%）;可交换态比重在太湖中最高（Cu占3.2%~5.6%,Zn为1.3%~1.5%）,在南四湖中最低（Cu为1.1%~2.9%,Zn未检出）。从“非稳定态”重金属（除残渣态外的四种形态之和）所占比例看,相较其它两个湖泊,太湖沉积物中重金属污染人为输入的活性态占较大比重,具有较高的二次释放风险。相关性分析得出,重金属Cu的可交换态与上覆水中总氮及总磷之间存在着极显著的正相关关系,碳酸盐结合态Cu与沉积物中营养盐呈现出显著的负相关性,说明水体的富营养化程度加剧可能会增强沉积物中Cu向水体释放的风险。     

东昌湖表层沉积物的磷赋存形态

对东昌湖表层沉积物,应用Ruban等在欧洲标准委员会框架下发展的淡水沉积物磷形态分离法(SMT)测定铁铝结合态磷(Fe/Al-P)、钙结合态磷(Ca-P)、无机磷(IP)、有机磷(OP)和总磷(TP),分析TP与总氮(TN)和总有机碳(TOC)之间的相关性,结果表明,东昌湖表层沉积物的总磷含量在428.67—933.95 mg.kg-1之间,平均含量为597.78 mg.kg-1;沉积物的磷以IP为主,占TP的70.06%—91.08%,以OP为辅,占TP含量的12.31%—26.40%.IP中以Ca-P为主,占TP含量的64.67%—94.51%,Fe/Al-P仅占TP的2.57%—10.40%,从各形态磷占TP的百分比来看,Ca-P>OP>Fe/Al-P.东昌湖表层沉积物向上覆水体释放磷的潜力不大.东昌湖沉积物TP含量与梁子湖、太湖、洪泽湖、东湖和南四湖的TP含量相当,低于玄武湖和滇池;Fe/Al-P含量比我国其它湖泊要小1—2个数量级;Ca-P含量较国内其它湖泊的Ca-P含量高.表层沉积物的TP与TN、TOC之间呈极显著正相关关系,TP分布受到TN和TOC的输入影响.     

长江中下游湖泊沉积物酶活性及其与富营养化的关系

为揭示富营养化湖泊沉积物营养物分解合成过程的生物化学机制,研究了长江中下游6个浅水湖泊沉积物氮、磷、有机质和铵氮含量,水解酶、氧化还原酶活性,微生物种类与数量及之间的关系.结果表明:大通湖、珊珀湖、赛城湖和军山湖等养殖型湖泊,污染严重,其沉积物脲酶活性明显高于污染程度轻的大型湖泊鄱阳湖和洞庭湖,且与沉积物总氮(TN)、有机质(OM)含量呈极显著正相关(r=885,P<0.01;r=0.900,P<0.01);沉积物碱性磷酸酶(APA)活性与总磷(TP)含量呈极显著正相关(r=0.986,P<0.01).湖泊沉积物过氧化氢酶、多酚氧化酶与过氧化物酶活性变化趋势相近,分布状况与湖泊污染程度、人类活动干扰程度等紧密相连.湖泊沉积物微生物以细菌为主,放线菌次之,真菌最少.各湖泊氨化细菌数量差异较小,而反硝化细菌数量差异较大,反硝化细菌可能是导致该区域湖泊沉积物氮素累积的重要生物指示因子,可以作为反映湖泊富营养化程度的生物指示因子.     

太湖表层沉积物中多磷酸盐检出的环境意义

在氮限制型富营养化湖泊中,沉积多磷酸盐(Poly-P)可以用来示踪营养盐磷的输入和湖泊的富营养化过程。太湖是一个典型的磷限制型富营养化湖泊,通过对太湖表层沉积物中总有机碳(TOC)、总氮(TN)、总磷(TP)、氢氧化钠可提取磷(NaOH-P)以及Poly-P的提取分析,初步探讨了太湖营养盐磷输入的历史记录,并揭示了该湖Poly-P的主要来源和保存机制。太湖Poly-P的质量浓度较低,变化范围为0.004~0.065mg·g-1。NaOH-P占TP组成的22%,是太湖沉积物总磷的主要组成部分之一。结果显示,在湖泊水体藻类生物量较大和NaOH-P是沉积物TP重要组成部分的磷限制型湖泊中,Poly-P也是沉积物磷汇组成的一个重要部分,同时还是一个可以反映由人为磷输入增大导致湖泊富营养化程度加剧的敏感指标。     

太湖不同湖区无机氮转化潜力

采集太湖梅梁湾和东太湖的水样和积物,在实验室内模拟研究不同湖区水体中溶解性无机氮(DIN)短期内的转化潜力.研究结果表明,太湖藻型湖区(梅梁湾)和草型湖区(东太湖)水体中存在着强烈的硝化作用,NH 4-N和NO3-N含量之间表现出显著的负相关关系(P＜0.05或P＜0.01),NH 4-N质量浓度下降速率为0.08～0.19 mg·L-1·d-1.在同样的试验条件下,藻型湖区硝化速率高于草型湖区.NH 4-N初始浓度越高则硝化速率也越高,不添加外源氮时硝化速率随着时间的推移而逐渐降低.藻型湖区的反硝化作用强于草型湖区.室内模拟试验20 d后,沉积物中TN含量平均下降了3.7%,东太湖水样中平均下降26.7%,梅梁湾平均下降42.2%.湖泊沉积物是进行反硝化作用的重要场所.短期内DIN的转化潜力反映了不同湖区氮素转化速率,也反映了不同生态类型水体对湖泊氮素转化的影响.     

巢湖表层沉积物氮、磷、有机质的分布及污染评价

巢湖是中国第五大淡水湖,近年来富营养化问题严重,氮、磷、有机质增加是导致湖泊富营养化的重要驱动因素,而沉积物是湖泊氮、磷、有机质的主要归宿地。因此,了解巢湖沉积物氮、磷、有机质的含量及分布特征,对探明巢湖沉积物营养物质的污染状况及其富营养化控制与治理具有重要参考意义。在全湖布设了33个样点,对表层(0~10 cm)沉积物进行采样,分别采用重铬酸钾-硫酸硝化法、高氯酸-硫酸酸熔-钼锑抗比色法和烧失量法(550℃,焙烧5 h)测定沉积物总氮(TN)、总磷(TP)以及有机质(OM)含量,分析了TN、TP和OM含量的空间分布特征及相关性,并运用综合污染指数法和有机污染指数法评价其污染程度。结果表明,表层沉积物TN、TP和OM的含量范围(以下均称为范围)分别为64~3 005 mg?kg~(-1)、333~2 122 mg?kg~(-1)、1.79%~10.38%,均值分别为1 737 mg?kg~(-1)、691 mg?kg~(-1)、5.86%;空间上均表现为西湖区高于东湖区。Pearson相关性分析显示,表层沉积物OM与TN(r=0.75,P0.01),OM与TP(r=0.63,P0.01),TN与TP(r=0.66,P0.01)均呈显著正相关。综合污染指数范围为0.69~4.24,全湖平均值为1.83,有机污染指数范围为0.01~1.42,全湖平均值为0.63,两种指数法均显示巢湖表层沉积物TN、TP和OM污染严重,且西湖区污染较东湖区严重。     

长江中下游浅水湖泊沉积物磷释放动力学

在室内模拟条件下,通过沉积物磷释放动力学实验,研究了长江中下游浅水湖泊13个沉积物的磷释放动力学特征,并分析了沉积物组成特征对磷释放动力学的影响,结果表明:(1)指数动力学模型可以很好地拟合长江中下游浅水湖泊沉积物磷释放动力学特征,前20h为快反应,磷释放速度较大,随后进入慢反应,逐渐达到最大释放量;(2)沉积物磷释放动力学特征与其组成有关,其中与总氮、总磷和有机质含量呈显著正相关,与沙粒含量呈显著负相关,而与粘粒含量没有达到显著水平,与Olsen-P(0.5mol·L-1NaHCO3,pH8.5提取的磷)和易解吸态磷(RDP)含量达极显著正相关水平;(3)可以根据总磷和有效磷含量来比较和预测湖泊沉积物磷释放动力学特征,且根据有效磷含量可以得到比根据总磷含量更可靠的结果。研究成果可为系统揭示浅水湖泊富营养化发生机制提供依据。     

巢湖沉积物中氮与磷赋存形态研究

利用连续提取法研究巢湖沉积物中不同赋存形态P、N的组成和分布特征.结果显示,巢湖沉积物中总P含量为0.111～0.655 g·kg-1,平均0.358 g·kg-1,主要由无机P组成(65%～72%),赋存形态以铁结合态为主;巢湖沉积物中总N含量为0.220～0.922 g·kg-1,平均0.532 g·kg-1,以有机N为主,约占总N的94.7%.有机N含量与有机指数等指标显示,巢湖处于清洁与尚清洁状态.湖泊沉积物中有机质、总N、总P间相关分析表明,湖泊营养物质来源具同一性趋势;有机C/N比值的研究结果显示,有机质主要来源于陆源.     

普者黑岩溶湿地沉积物氮、磷、有机质分布及污染风险评价

为探究典型岩溶湿地沉积物营养物质的污染状况及其富营养化风险,以典型岩溶流域普者黑为研究区,通过对流域内湖泊湿地、沼泽湿地、库塘湿地和河流湿地的表层沉积物进行采样,采用国家标准方法对沉积物中总氮(TN)、总磷(TP)及有机质(OM)的含量进行测定,并运用综合污染指数法和有机污染指数法对普者黑岩溶流域不同类型湿地沉积物的污染程度进行评价,以期为岩溶湿地水-沉积物污染的控制与治理提供参考和依据。普者黑表层沉积物TN的质量分数范围为893.57-4 841.85 mg·kg~(-1),平均值为1 949.09 mg·kg~(-1),TP的质量分数范围为235.81-1 439.58 mg·kg~(-1),平均值646.06 mg·kg~(-1),OM的质量分数范围为1.10%-6.27%,平均值为2.58%,空间分布上均表现为流域中游流域下游流域上游。Pearson相关性分析表明,库塘湿地的TN、TP和OM相关性最显著(P0.01),河流湿地的TN、TP和OM相关性次显著(P0.01),湖泊湿地的TN和OM相关性显著(P0.05),沼泽湿地的TN、TP和OM无显著相关性(P0.05)。流域综合污染指数整体上呈中度-重度污染,沼泽湿地污染比河流湿地、湖泊湿地及库塘湿地严重,而有机污染指数整体上呈中度污染。普者黑岩溶流域不同类型湿地表层沉积物TN、TP和OM的含量均处于中等偏高水平,污染水平呈中度-重度污染,其内源负荷不容忽视。     

城市污染河道沉积物有机质的氧化稳定性

为了研究城市河道沉积物有机质的氧化稳定性,以氧化稳定系数(Kos)和腐殖化程度(HA/FA)作为评价指标,在用H2O2处理沉积物的基础上,探讨城市污染河道有机质含量、有机质组成等对氧化稳定性的影响.结果显示,污染河道沉积物有机质含量明显高于自然水生态系统沉积物有机质含量;富里酸(FA)、胡敏酸(HA)、胡敏素(HM)是污染河道沉积物有机质主要赋存形式,其中胡敏素是主体,占全部有机质的65%以上;易氧化有机质(OMr)和难氧化有机质(OMd)与总有机质含量均显著正相关(P0.05);OMd的含量可以更直观地反映河道污染程度;重污染河道沉积物有机质去除量较高;随着有机质的去除,沉积物Kos在总体上有上升的趋势;不同形态有机组分其Kos差异性明显(P0.05),以HM为主的紧结态腐殖质的Kos值最高;用HA/FA和OMr可从大体上表征沉积物的氧化稳定性;HA、FA是影响城市河道沉积物氧化稳定性的主要因素.     

4种沉水植物对白洋淀富营养化水体净化效果的研究

利用白洋淀富营养化的湖水和底泥与蓖齿眼子菜、马来眼子菜、金鱼藻和黑藻4种沉水植物分别组成室内静态模拟的生长体系,研究4种沉水植物在白洋淀富营养化环境下的生长状况,以及不同沉水植物生长体系对水体磷、氮及有机物的净化效果。结果表明：试验所用沉水植物对富营养化湖水、底泥具有一定的耐受能力,在试验条件中生长良好,长度与生物量都明显增加,并能有效地降低水体中的总磷、氨氮及总氮浓度。试验21 d后,蓖齿眼子菜、马来眼子菜、金鱼藻和黑藻所在的生长体系对水体中总磷的去除能力分别为：4.68、4.72、4.92和5.03μg·d-1·g-1,去除率分别为：83.59%、84.35%、87.84%和89.88%;对水体中氨氮的去除能力分别为：11.42、10.75、12.02和11.90μg·d-1·g-1,去除率分别为：74.98%、70.58%、78.96%和78.11%;对总氮的去除能力分别为：37.69、39.79、42.02和41.65μg.d-1.g-1,去除率分别为：79.40%、83.82%、88.51%和87.73%。沉水植物生长体系对CODcr的降解有所反复,但整体呈现下降趋势。不同沉水植物生长体系总磷、总氮含量随时间降解的拟合方程表明,水体总磷、总氮浓度随时间的变化呈负指数形式衰减。沉水植物对水体营养盐浓度的影响通过多种途径实现,底泥在营养盐的归趋中起着重要的作用。     

Mercury distribution,speciation and potential ecological risk assessment in sediments from Lake Taihu,China

Abstract

Twenty-one surface sediments collected from seven surroundings areas of Lake Taihu in two different years were analyzed for total mercury (THg) concentrations, physicochemical characteristics and speciation using a sequential extraction method to assess spatial distribution, sources, and potential ecological risk. Surface sediments from Lake Taihu contained elevated levels of Hg in two sampling years with THg levels ranging from 77 to 346?ng/g (mean 145?ng/g) in October 2010 and ranging from 122 to 573?ng/g (mean 266?ng/g) in November 2012, respectively. The mean THg concentrations in all studied surface sediments exhibited an increasing trend over time. The oxidizable fraction (F3) and residual fraction (F4) were the predominant Hg species in sediments, while more mobile Hg phases of acid-soluble fraction (F1) and reducible fraction (F2) made up less than 0.5% THg. Significant relationships were found between total organic carbon (TOC) and THg and geochemical speciation indicating an important role for organic matter in affecting distribution, mobility, and bioavailability of Hg in sediments. As evidenced by Hakanson’s potential risk index the total ecological risk of Hg was low in the entire Lake Taihu in 2010 but considered moderate in Zhushan Bay, West Coast, and Meiliang Bay in 2012. These findings provide conservation managers with information needed to more effectively regulate the environment of Lake Taihu.     

土地利用方式对土壤碳库影响的敏感性评价指标

综述了目前国内外在监测土地利用方式对土壤有机碳动态的影响时所采用的一些敏感性指标：微生物量碳和微生物商、CO2通量和qCO2、轻组有机质和颗粒态有机质、溶解态有机碳(DOC)。大量的研究表明，与土壤有机碳相比，微生物量碳库的周转率更大，周转时间更短，在土壤总有机碳变化可检测之前，土壤微生物部分的变化可能被检测到，是土壤碳动态的敏感性指标。轻组和颗粒态有机质是自然土壤肥力的决定因素，也是土地管理方式影响最明显的部分，对于准确评价土地利用变化对土壤碳过程的影响具有重要意义。CO2，通量和qCO2，可以综合反映土壤微生物的活性、利用土壤有机碳的效率及土壤中碳的代谢作用等，也是土壤碳动态的敏感性指标。DOC通量比全球植物和大气间碳交换量小1-2个数量级，所以生物圈碳平衡的很小变化会导致DOC的巨大变化，DOC浓度和通量是土壤温度和湿度变化的敏感指标。     

普萘洛尔在太湖沉积物上的吸附特征

主要研究了pH、离子强度、腐殖酸和沉积物有机质对普萘洛尔在太湖沉积物上吸附行为的影响.结果表明,沉积物对普萘洛尔具有一定的吸附能力.在强酸环境下,由于H⁺与带正电荷的普萘洛尔之间的竞争作用使得普萘洛尔的吸附量较小,随着pH的增大,吸附量逐渐增大至基本稳定,但当pH>9时,吸附量明显下降.K⁺、Na⁺和Ca²⁺的存在会减少普萘洛尔在沉积物上的吸附.在pH 5.8—6.0的情况下,随着腐殖酸浓度的增加,普萘洛尔在沉积物上的吸附量逐渐增加,而后逐渐到达平台期.有机质对普萘洛尔在沉积物上的吸附起到一定作用,普萘洛尔在天然水体中更倾向于吸附到沉积物的无机矿物成分上.普萘洛尔在太湖沉积物上的吸附等温线符合Freundlich吸附模型,拟二级动力学方程能较好地描述普萘洛尔在太湖沉积物上的吸附过程.     

Methane Production in River and Lake Sediments in Taiwan

To investigate the relationship between methane production in the sediments and pollution of the river and lake, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the water sample, organic matter content and methane production of the sediment were measured. Experimental results indicated that BOD, COD and organic matter contents were low in Bei-tan Lake, the I-lan River and reservoirs; and methane production of these sediments ranged from 0.24 to 1.06 mg L- 1. However, BOD, COD and organic matter contents were high in the Hsin-dan River, Keelung River, drainage river of Taoyuan County, park pond and fishery pond. Methane production of these sediments was between 11.75 and 54.54 mg L-1. Sediments of drain river and fishery pond had high methane production, at 25.41 to 54.54 mg methane L. Methane production of sediments had a good correlation with BOD, COD and organic matter contents. Methane production was proportional to the increment in incubation temperature from 12 to 40C.     

The addition of FeOOH binds phosphate in organic matter-rich sediments

Due to climate change and anthropogenic nutrients’ runoff into freshwater or shallow lakes, eutrophication caused by phosphorus (P) can be seen in the frequent occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms and excessive growth of macrophytes. Subsequently, decomposition of cyanobacterial bloom biomass (CBB) and macrophytes leads to massive autochthonous organic matter (OM) and creates hypoxia in bodies of water. In this study, we investigated the effects of OM and iron on phosphorus release from lake sediments under anaerobic conditions. As with CBB, the addition of cellulose also enhanced P release from sediments during microcosm experiments, while total phosphorus (TP) concentration in the overlying water displayed an inverse relationship to cellulose amendment, with high TP concentration (0.41?±?0.07?mg?L^?1) observed in the treatment of less cellulose amendment (1?g of cellulose). In addition, P release from OM-rich sediments was effectively inhibited when amorphous FeOOH was added to the microcosms. P release was inhibited by 66–92% when the weight ratio between total Fe and total P in sediments varied from 18 to 60. Thus, iron treatment was useful to inhibit P release from OM-rich sediments, and could alleviate eutrophication problems.     

Fractionation of Heavy Metals in Surface Sediments of Taihu Lake, East China

The BCR (European Communities Bureau of Reference) three-step sequential extraction procedure was applied to fractionate heavy metals in the sediment of Taihu Lake. For the determination of total metal concentration of the sediments, sample digestion was achieved by using HF/H₂O₂/HNO₃(2/1/1) acid mixture in a microwave-irradiated closed vessel system. The concentrations of Cd, Ni, Cr, Zn, Cu and Pb in various extracts solutions were analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES). The results obtained from the BCR three-step sequential extraction indicated relatively high mobility of Zn, Cu, Pb and Ni in the sediments while Cd and Cr were poorly mobile. Enrichment of heavy metals was found in the sediments collected in the northern parts of Taihu Lake. In the sediments collected in the southern and western sides of the Lake, heavy metal concentrations were relatively low. The relationship between total organic carbon (TOC) and heavy metals concentrations in the sediments is discussed.     

Benthic Response to Mucilaginous Aggregates in the Northern Adriatic Sea: Biochemical Indicators of Eutrophication

In summer 1997, gelatinous aggregates appeared in the Adriatic Sea, covering large areas of the northern basin. This study deals with the comparison between the biochemical composition of the sedimentary organic matter in summer, 1996 (when no aggregates appeared), and in summer, 1997 (during the appearance of aggregates). the biochemical composition of organic matter in surface sediments (determined in terms of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, phytopigments and nucleic acids) has been investigated in two areas along the coast of the NW-Adriatic Sea in order to characterize benthic processes during aggregate deposition on the sea floor. During mucilage accumulation, a significant increase of biochemical compounds was observed, and chlorophyll-a and carbohydrate concentrations doubled their concentrations. in contrast, protein concentrations decreased, so that overall biopolymeric carbon content (expressed as the sum of lipid, protein and carbohydrate carbon equivalents) did not display significant differences between sampling periods (1579.3 in June, 1996 1678.8 μgCg^-1 and June, 1997). the protein to carbohydrate ratio decreased from 4.9 in June, 1996 to 1.8 in June, 1997. Mucilage production in June, 1997, modified significantly the biochemical composition of the sedimentary OM, thus affecting the potential availability of OM to benthic consumers. We hypothesise that the production of highly refractory composition of the sedimentary OM during mucilage accumulation might have an important biogeochemical implications.
