夏季强降雨期间千岛湖有机碳的时空分布特征及影响因素

近年来,极端降雨事件在全球发生的强度和频率不断增加,这可能对大型深水水库水体有机碳的时空分布产生深远影响. 为探究强降雨事件对千岛湖有机碳的时空分布特征及影响机制,于2020年5—8月逐月采集了典型大型深水水库——千岛湖100个调查点位水样,分析了千岛湖夏季水体总有机碳(TOC)、溶解性有机碳(DOC)和颗粒有机碳(POC)浓度的时空分布特征和影响因素,重点探讨了强降水过程对有机碳浓度、通量和储量的影响. 结果表明:①2020年5—8月千岛湖TOC、DOC和POC浓度平均值分别为2.06、1.73 和0.33 mg/L,随着强降雨开始,5—7月TOC、DOC浓度呈逐渐上升趋势,而雨量急剧下降的8月(几乎无雨),浓度也随之显著下降;水平分布上,5—7月有机碳浓度高值在全库的分布范围逐渐扩大,整体具有河流区到湖泊区逐渐降低趋势. ②新安江入库碳通量(F_TOC、F_DOC、F_POC)约占全库25条主要河流总入库碳通量的69%,降雨期间5—7月总入库F_TOC分别是8月的11、36和41倍;5—8月有机碳储量(R_TOC、R_DOC、R_POC)平均值分别为44 611、38 452和6 159 t,6月、7月的总入库碳通量均占当月全库水体碳储量的1/5,所占比例分别8月的35和28倍. ③DOC和POC浓度与叶绿素a(Chla)、悬浮颗粒物(SS)、有机悬浮颗粒物(OSS)、无机悬浮颗粒物(ISS)、COD_Mn和TP浓度均呈极显著(P<0.01)正相关,与透明度(SD)呈极显著(P<0.01)负相关. 研究显示:千岛湖有机碳主要受浮游植物内源生产过程以及外源输入过程共同决定,而这两个过程受水文气象因素的综合影响,强降雨过程是千岛湖有机碳时空变化的关键驱动力;强降雨也是有机碳通量升高的关键控制因子,并且高入库碳通量会对全库水体碳储量产生强烈冲击.      

Influence of peatland and land cover distribution on fire regimes in insular Southeast Asia

Anthropogenic biomass burning in insular Southeast Asia facilitates conversion and degradation of ecosystems and emits high amounts of carbon into the atmosphere. We analyzed the influence of peat soil and land cover distribution on the occurrence and characteristics of vegetation fires. Two years of satellite-based active fire detections over Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Borneo and Java were examined together with land cover and peatland maps. Our results showed that fire occurrence nearly tripled (23,000 → 68,000) from a wet La Niña year (2008) to a drier El Niño year (2009). In both years, fires were concentrated in peatlands (in 2009 41% of fires vs. 10% of land area), and the majority of large-scale burning took place in peatlands. Variation in peatland land cover within the study area was noticed to create remarkable different fire regimes. Biomass burning in the intensely managed Sumatran peatlands was characterized by large-scale land clearance fires that took place annually to varying extent. The largely unmanaged degraded peatland ecosystems of Borneo, on the other hand, experienced very little fire activity in a wet year but were ravaged by large-scale wildfires when El Niño conditions arose. We conclude that fire regime characteristics in insular Southeast Asia are strongly connected to occurrence of peat soil and land management status. This leads to high variation of fire activity within this region both annually (depending on weather patters) and over longer time range (depending on land cover/management issues) and greatly complicates estimation of the effects of fires.     

EDTA reduces lead accumulation in Symphytum officinale L. (comfrey) roots

The addition of EDTA in phytoextraction studies has been reported to increase heavy metal accumulation in above-ground parts or to have no negative impact on the overall (root/shoot) accumulation levels in terrestrial plants. At a purely quantitative level, this study assessed the phytoextraction potential of a previously untested high-biomass terrestrial plant, Symphytum officinale L. (comfrey), in the presence of Pb and EDTA. In this hydroponic-based study, we report a small increase in shoot accumulation of Pb with EDTA but, conversely, the presence of EDTA in the nutrient medium markedly reduced the overall quantity of Pb in the plant root by at least 80%. The loss does not appear to be explained by EDTA acting alone, increased transport of Pb to the shoots, or anionic charge repulsion of the [PbEDTA]^2? complex. The elusive action and negative effect of EDTA on Pb accumulation in S. officinale provides additional reasons towards a growing trend away from the use of EDTA as a chelating agent in phytoextraction.     

The relationship between flow and bacteria in streams

A method is proposed to relate the statistics of in-stream bacteria concentrations to the surface-runoff fraction of stream flow. The parameters of this relationship include the characteristic concentration of bacteria in surface runoff and the characteristic concentration of bacteria in the base flow, and these parameters can be derived from synoptic bacteria and flow measurements. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated at several U.S. locations for both Escherichia coli and fecal coliform bacteria. Application of the proposed method at a particular location showed that the method can be used to identify the most effective bacteria source controls and that conventional application of the load-duration curve might lead to erroneous identification of target sources.     

Effects of post-sampling conditions on ambient carbon aerosol filter measurements

Ambient carbonaceous material collected on quartz filters is prone to measurement artifacts due to material gained or lost during post-sampling field latency, shipping, and storage. In seventeen sampling events over a one year period, ambient PM_2.5 aerosols were collected on quartz filters (without denuders) and subjected to various filter treatments to assess the potential for and extent of artifacts. The filter treatments simulated post-sampling environments that filters may be exposed to and included: storage at 40 °C for up to 96 h, storage at ?16 °C for 48 h, and storage at room temperature (～21 °C) for 48 h. Carbon mass on the filters was measured using a thermal-optical method. The total carbon (TC), total organic carbon (TOC) and total elemental carbon (TEC) as well as carbon thermal fraction masses were obtained. Statistical analyses were performed to identify significant differences in carbon fraction concentrations between filters analyzed immediately after sampling and after being subjected to treatment.TOC and TC concentrations decreased by on average 15 ± 5% and 10 ± 4%, respectively, for filters maintained at 40 °C for 96 h but did not change for filters stored at room temperature or frozen for 48 h. TEC did not change for any of the filter treatments. The mass concentration for the organic carbon thermal fraction that evolves at the lowest temperature step (OC1) decreased with increasing storage time at 40 °C with average losses of 70 ± 7% after 96 h. Therefore, OC1 is not a stable measurement due to post-sampling conditions that may be encountered. This work demonstrates that TOC and TC can have substantial measurement artifacts on filters subjected to field latency and other non-temperature controlled post-sampling handling, compared to the carbon loadings on the filter at the end of the sampling period.

典型肥料生产场地氨氮分布特征及风险控制目标确定

为探究肥料生产场地的NH₃-N（氨氮）分布特征及环境风险,以我国某肥料生产场地为研究对象,在场地调查基础上,对场地土壤和地下水NH₃-N的空间分布进行分析,并以人体健康和场地地下水为保护对象分别讨论了土壤NH₃-N风险控制目标值的计算方法.结果表明:①目标场地土壤中w（NH₃-N）为0.03~15 000 mg/kg,水平方向上高值区集中分布于核心生产区及原辅料堆场,垂向上总体表现为由上至下随深度增加呈先逐步升高后降低的趋势,并且富集于人工填土与原状粉质黏土交界处,粉质黏土阻碍NH₃-N向下迁移,并随地层结构变化其迁移深度不同.②场地上层滞水和潜水中ρ（NH₃-N）分别为19.10~3 320和0.03~219 mg/L,超标率分别为100%和57.89%,并且地下水与土壤的NH₃-N在水平空间分布上具有重叠特征.③因NH₃-N主要通过呼吸吸入挥发性气体产生暴露,并且仅有经呼吸暴露的毒性参数,故采用《污染场地风险评估技术导则》中经呼吸暴露途径的非致癌效应风险控制值计算模型来计算土壤NH₃-N的控制目标,通过代入场地实测土壤K_d（土-水分配系数）,得到居住用地下的土壤NH₃-N控制目标值为9 195 mg/kg;若考虑保护地下水水质安全,据三相或两相平衡模型耦合NH₃-N在包气带衰减和地下水稀释作用,当目标场地地表无积水的入渗条件下得到的控制目标值为6 203 mg/kg;当地层从上至下呈饱和含水条件时,土壤NH₃-N控制目标为811 mg/kg.计算值可用作不同场地进行土壤NH₃-N风险管控的参考目标,实际应用中可结合不同地块环境条件、不同受体和保护目标,选择相应的风险控制值对场地进行风险管控.此外,土壤和地下水的NH₃-N污染控制均可考虑采用工程措施和制度控制来进行.
