The role and distribution of total suspended solids in the macrotidal coastal waters of Korea

Spatial and temporal distribution patterns of total suspended solids (TSS) in the shallow and macrotidal regions of the Korean peninsula indicated there were significant changes in TSS concentrations. These were seasonally influenced by the wind, river input and tidal cycle. There were high TSS values at estuarine and river mouth stations and during low tide due to the re-suspension of bottom sediment by strong wind action during winter months, in addition the land input through rivers and strong tidal current during ebbing. Monthly mean values of TSS significantly correlated with wind speed and nitrate concentration (p < 0.01). This indicated that the resuspension of surface sediment was a more important source of TSS than the river input, and that nitrate was introduced into the water column during the resuspension process. TSS were seven times higher at low tide than in high tide. Light penetration was significantly inhibited by TSS; as >98% of incident light was absorbed within 2 m and zero photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) under 2 m in the estuarine stations during winter. Removal of heavy metals and nutrients by TSS in the water column was evident. Over 80% of the initial concentration of nutrients was removed within 10 min under various concentrations of TSS and also TSS contained significantly higher concentration of heavy metals than surface sediment. The concentration levels of nutrients and chemical oxygen demand in the west coast were comparable with the East and South Sea, even the major rivers in the Korean peninsula flow into the West Sea with major pollutant loadings into the coastal areas. High concentration of TSS is likely to contribute to the removal process of these pollutants, resulting in relatively lower levels of nutrients and organic materials in these coastal waters.     

土法炼锌区土壤-白菜系统中重金属的化学调控研究

采用苗圃盆栽试验,用腐殖质、EDTA、不同量的石灰等对赫章土法炼锌区的污染土壤进行处理。测定了基质的化学特性、重金属的DTPA提取态含量,并观察了白菜生长特性及其对重金属累积特性。结果表明,施用石灰处理,土壤速效磷由0.5mg/kg增加到10 mg/kg,土壤中Pb、Zn和Cd的DTPA提取态分别降低了83.9%、23.1%和79.4%;白菜中Pb、Zn和Cd的含量分别减少97.2%、94.7%和89.4%;白菜生物量增加了5.97倍。土法炼锌区影响白菜生长主要土壤因子是pH值和速效磷,白菜中的Cd、Pb与土壤DTPA提取态的Cd、Pb呈显著正相关。在土法炼锌区重金属污染土壤中施加石灰是一种实用而有效的改良措施。

典型电子垃圾拆解区大气颗粒物中元素污染的季节变化特征

分别在典型电子垃圾拆解区(E)和其参考区(S)采集了大气总悬浮颗粒物(TSP)样品,利用等离子体电感耦合质谱(ICP-MS)检测了13种元素。结果表明,E地区大气TSP中各元素含量均高于对照区,特别是污染元素Zn、Cu、Cd、Sn和Pb。E地区和S地区TSP中元素质量浓度的季节变化趋势相似,TSP中地壳元素质量浓度夏季高于冬季,而污染元素冬季高于夏季。E地区和S地区TSP中Cu、Zn、Sn和Pb的富集因子(EF)100,E地区EF值高于对照区,说明这些元素主要来源于电子垃圾处理过程;而Mg、K、Ca、Ti、V、Mn、Fe、Co和Cd的EF值为1~10,说明元素主要为自然来源。

上海、乌鲁木齐与昌吉三市城市土壤重金属富集特征比较研究

选择上海、乌鲁木齐、昌吉3个城市,通过对其城市土壤重金属含量水平、分布特征及活性的比较研究,发现城市土壤中Cr、Cu、Pb、Zn含量均远高于背景值,但Mn、Fe含量与背景值差别不大;上海市Cr、Pb、Zn含量最高,而昌吉市Cu含量最高,城市规模的大小并不能直接反映土壤重金属含量的高低,工业污染物排放量、交通量、城市规模大小、城市发展历史、工业区位置及变迁、土壤背景值等因素均会影响土壤重金属含量水平。除Mn、Fe无明显的功能区分布差异外,各城市重金属功能区分布规律并不相同,城市污染来源的不同可能是主要原因。重金属活性并未与其含量分布规律完全一致,上海土壤重金属活性大于乌鲁木齐、昌吉,上海土壤pH值小于乌鲁木齐、昌吉可能是主要影响因素,但也存在上海土壤中个别重金属活性小于乌鲁木齐、昌吉的现象,污染物来源存在差异等可能是主要原因。也可能较强,反之亦然。

Comparison of sediment metal:aluminum relationships between the eastern and gulf coasts of the United States

Aluminum is often used as a conservative tracer toseparate natural from anthropogenic components ofmetal contamination in marine sediments, butidentifying uncontaminated sites to develop baselinemetal:aluminum relationships can be problematic inpopulated areas. Here we present a new method foridentifying baseline relationships in high populationdensity areas. The method involves comparing theresidual from the metal:aluminum regression with anindependent estimate of laboratory measurement error,based on the premise that mean square error from theregression must equal laboratory measurement error forany data set that is free of anthropogenicallyenriched sites. The method is applied to data setsfrom the mid-Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the UnitedStates to test consistency in baseline relationshipsbetween these two coasts of geologically differentorigin. Differences in metal:aluminum relationshipsbetween coasts were found to be small and limited tothe least abundant trace metals.
