矿区植被恢复方式对土壤微生物和酶活性的影响

矿区废弃地生态退化形势严峻,生态修复已成为矿区可持续发展的主要措施,土壤微生物和酶活性可作为评价土壤恢复质量的敏感因子.本研究将以山西省安太堡煤矿复垦区作为对象,分析植被恢复方式对土壤微生物和酶活的影响.结果表明,不同植被方式对土壤理化特征、参与氮代谢的3类菌群(固氮菌、硝化细菌和反硝化细菌)和4种酶活性(蔗糖酶、过氧化氢酶、脲酶和多酚氧化酶活)均有显著影响.土壤总氮含量与固氮菌和硝化细菌数量均显著相关,而与反硝化细菌不相关.多酚氧化酶活性与有机碳和总氮含量之间为负相关,而其它3种酶与有机碳和总氮之间呈正相关.通过主成分分析计算综合肥力指标,刺槐-油松混交林土壤综合肥力指标最高,而未复垦综合肥力指标最低.可见,刺槐-油松混交林是晋西北干旱区矿区复垦较为适宜的植被恢复模式.

Salinity and nutrient modulate soil bacterial communities in the coastal wetland of the Yellow River Delta,China

The Yellow River Delta is the largest and youngest estuarine and coastal wetland in China and is experiencing the most active interactions of seawater and freshwater in the world. Bacteria played multifaceted influence on soil biogeochemical processes, and it was necessary to investigate the intermodulation between the soil factors and bacterial communities. Soil samples were collected at sites with different salinity degree, vegetations, and interference. The sequences of bacilli were tested using 16S rRNA sequencing method and operational taxonomic units were classified with 97% similarity. The soil was highly salinized and oligotrophic, and the wetland was nitrogen-restricted. Redundancy analysis suggested that factors related with seawater erosion were principal to drive the changes of soil bacterial communities and then the nutrient level and human disturbance. A broader implication was that, in the early succession stages of the coastal ecosystem, seawater erosion was the key driver of the variations of marine oligotrophic bacterial communities, while the increasing nutrient availability may enhance in the abundance of the riverine copiotrophs in the late stages. This study provided new insights on the characteristics of soil bacterial communities in estuarine and coastal wetlands.

     

氧化镁基生物质炭高效去除水体中磷的特性

利用花生壳为前驱体,在高温限氧条件下,将氧化镁(MgO)负载于生物质炭(BC)表面制备出氧化镁基生物质炭(MgOBC)复合材料.系统研究了MgO-BC对水体中P的吸附特性,并探讨了溶液pH值、接触时间、竞争离子等因素对P的吸附效果的影响.结果表明,P的最佳吸附初始pH为7~9,过酸过碱的环境均不利于P的吸附;P的吸附过程可在540 min内达到平衡,且动力学曲线较好地符合伪一级和伪二级动力学模型,拟合系数可达97.3%和99.0%;当Cl~-、HCO_3~-、NO_3~-等共存离子的量浓度达到P的10倍时,MgO-BC对P仍具有较强的吸附能力;P的吸附过程较好地符合Langmuir等温模型,拟合系数达99%,理论最大吸附容量为138.07 mg·g~(-1),远高于其它未经改性或改性的生物质炭和几种典型P吸附剂的吸附容量.此外,吸附P后的复合材料可作为肥料施入土壤,可有效实现P的再利用.综上所述,该MgO-BC复合材料在净化实际P污染水体中有着广阔的应用前景.
