三峡水库蓄水运行初期(2003—2012年)水环境演变特征的“四大效应”

自2003年三峡水库首次蓄水至2012年工程竣工验收启动,针对三峡水库蓄水运行初期的水环境演变研究较多,但整体性、综合性科学认识仍然缺乏.基于水环境多要素跟踪观测研究,综合采用现场观测、室内试验、数理统计、模型模拟、同位素及保守离子示踪等技术手段,系统剖析了特大型、高变幅水位水库运行背景下水动力变异及其所伴生的水环境演变特征,从水动力、水质、水生态、污染物输移角度,提出了三峡水库水环境演变过程中的“四大效应”,主要包括干支流水动力特性的“分化”效应、上游-干流-支流水质演变“同步”效应、水动力变化对藻类水华暴发的“胁迫”效应、水动力变化对同等负荷条件下污染源危害的“迭加”效应等.考虑到大型水库生态系统的演替和稳定是一个长期过程,建议继续强化长江上游梯级水电开发影响下的三峡水库水环境演变跟踪调查研究,适时开展三峡工程对库区水环境影响的后评估.      

杭州青山水库沉积物中多环芳烃的垂直分布、来源及潜在生态风险

利用高效液相色谱法检测杭州青山水库沉积物中多环芳烃(PAHs)的含量,并对其垂直分布特征及来源进行分析。结果表明,青山水库沉积物中共检出属于美国EPA优先控制16种PAHs中的15种,主要单体为芘和菲,各采样点位PAHs总量的浓度在324～881 ng/g(干重)之间,平均值为453 ng/g,属低污染水平。ΣPAHs含量空间分布受人类活动影响较大,以游船码头附近点位沉积物中含量最高;垂直尺度方面,各点位沉积物中ΣPAHs含量均是沉积柱中层最高,自水库底层往上呈现增加再减少的变化过程。沉积物中的多环芳烃以高分子量组分为主,其中4环PAHs含量最高,占比34. 3%～45. 6%。通过特征组分比例可确认其主要来自燃烧源,以油料的不完全燃烧形成的污染输入为主。利用沉积物质量基准法、沉积物质量标准法分别对青山水库沉积物中PAHs的风险评价表明,青山水库沉积物尚不存在严重的多环芳烃生态风险,但按照质量标准法评价有PAHs单体含量超过临界效应浓度值,需加强监测查明污染源,并采取措施控制污染物输入。     

Water level fluctuations influence microbial communities and mercury methylation in soils in the Three Gorges Reservoir, China

Reservoirs tend to have enhanced methylmercury(MeHg) concentrations compared to natural lakes and rivers, and water level fluctuations can promote MeHg production. Until now, little research has been conducted on the effects of microorganisms in soils for the formation of MeHg during different drying and flooding alternating conditions in the Three Gorges Reservoir(TGR). This study aimed to understand how water level fluctuations affect soil microbial composition and mercury concentrations, and if such microbial variations are related to Hg methylation. The results showed that MeHg concentrations and the ratios of MeHg to THg(MeHg%) in soils were higher in the seasonally drying and flooding alternating areas(DFAs, 175–155 m) than those in the non-inundated(NIAs, 175 m) and inundated areas(IAs, 145 m). However, MeHg% in all samples was less than 1%, indicating that the Hg methylation activity in the soils of the TGR was under a low level. 454 highthroughput sequencing of 16 S rRNA gene amplicons showed that soil bacterial abundance and diversity were relatively higher in DFA compared to those in NIA and IA, and microbial community composition varied in these three areas. At the family level, those groups in Deltaproteobacteria and Methanomicrobia that might have many Hg methylators were also showed a higher relative abundance in DFA, which might be the reason for the higher MeHg production in these areas. Overall, our results suggested that seasonally water level fluctuations can enhance the microbial abundance and diversity, as well as MeHg production in the TGR.     

三峡库区消落带农业活动对土壤汞变化的影响

针对三峡库区消落带退水期农业生产是否会对库区环境带来不利影响的问题,以分布面积较大、农业活动较为频繁的重庆市开州区渠口镇消落带为研究区域,选择种植水稻、玉米、蔬菜和未农用的草地4类消落带地块为研究对象,调查了不同利用地块表层土壤汞(Hg)的变化特征.结果表明,研究区域内土壤THg、有效态Hg(Hg-wh)和甲基汞(MeHg)平均含量分别为25.80~68.74、0.44~0.88和0.08~0.85 ng·g-1.未耕作土地表层土壤THg、Hg-wh和MeHg含量均高于耕作土地表层土壤,说明耕作扰动能够加速土壤Hg的流失.未耕作土壤与耕作土地表层土壤MeHg含量随着落干时长的增加均呈现先升高后降低的趋势,峰值大约出现在落干后1~2个月内,约为淹水末期的4倍,之后逐渐降低至相对稳定的水平.MeHg占THg比例(%MeHg)也呈现类似规律,峰值出现在落干后1个月左右,降到稳定水平时与淹水末期含量无显著性差异(P0.05).土壤%MeHg与Hg-wh含量呈显著性正相关关系(r=0.642,P0.01),而与THg含量没有显著相关性(P0.05),说明消落带土壤Hg甲基化主要受生物可利用性Hg形态的影响.     

基于生态足迹的三峡库区重庆段后续发展生态补偿标准量化研究

生态足迹思想被引入我国后,受到了许多学者的关注,结合生态系统服务价值相关理论,可以量化生态补偿标准.本文以重庆三峡库区为研究对象,通过基于"省公顷"的模型改进方法修正模型,计算生态足迹与生态承载力,得到其空间分异特征,引入生态系统服务价值,构建基于生态足迹的三峡库区后续发展生态补偿标准模型,并计算各个区县的生态补偿标准,与其他大型库区的生态补偿结果进行对比.研究结果表明:在2010—2016年,重庆三峡库区的平均生态足迹为34586160.120 hm~2,平均生态承载力为6664208.176 hm~2,通过对重庆段的所有区县进行生态安全判断,发现全部都是处于不安全状态,需要进行生态补偿.整体上,生态补偿需补偿约54.92亿元.而人均补偿额度小于100元的有大渡口区、奉节县、石柱县、巫山县、巫溪县、云阳县和忠县7个区县,在100～200元有长寿区、丰都县、开州区和武隆区4个区县,在200～300元的有巴南区和北碚区2个区县,在300～400元的有万州区、江北区、江津区、涪陵区和南岸区5个区县,大于400元的有沙坪坝区、渝中区、渝北区和九龙坡区4个区县.随着经济发展,必定会带来生态足迹与生态承载力的改变,生态补偿额度也会相应的增加.     

三峡库区消落带沉积物-水界面汞的扩散特征

通过模拟实验研究了三峡库区消落带沉积物-水界面汞及甲基汞的扩散。结果表明,三峡库区消落带浅水沉积物中的甲基汞占总汞的比例为0.41%±0.29%,深水沉积物中的甲基汞占总汞的比例为0.74%±0.52%。深水沉积物比浅水沉积物具有更高的甲基汞产率。随着淹水时间的延长,沉积物中甲基汞的含量呈指数增长。沉积物中的甲基汞生成动力学方程符合零级反应方程。沉积物中无机汞的扩散以Freundlich修正式拟合效果最好,相对好氧的环境更有利于沉积物中无机汞的释放。相应地,甲基汞的扩散以抛物线扩散方程拟合效果最好,黑暗厌氧的环境更有利于沉积物中甲基汞的释放。三峡库区消落带沉积物-水界面无机汞的扩散通量为154.65±47.12~160.23±56.19 ng/(m~2·d),甲基汞扩散通量为7.61±3.39~7.79±4.56 ng/(m~2·d)。随着淹水时间的增加,孔隙水无机汞及甲基汞向上覆水体的释放通量均表现为先增加后减小的趋势。沉积物中的甲基汞对上覆水体甲基汞含量的贡献率为1.5%~14.3%,释放量为0.28~0.85 kg/a。而沉积物中的汞对上覆水体汞含量的贡献率为0.20%~1.70%,释放量为5.64~17.55 kg/a。     

密云水库潮白河流域非点源污染负荷

利用密云水库两大入库河流一潮河和白河的常规监测数据，引用平均浓度法，估算流域非点源污染负荷，结果表明，73％COD、71％COD、94％NH3—N、75％T—N及94％T—P来自非点源污染，非点源污染是造成水库污染的主要原因。流域非点源污染的发生具有明显的地域分异特征。CODmn、BOD5等有机物主要来自白河流域，这可能与白河流域水土流失严重有关。而NH3—N、T—N及T—P等营养物质主要来自潮河流域。

Distribution, sources and potential toxicological significance of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) in Guanting Reservoir sediments, China

The Guanting Reservoir lost its function as the second biggest drinking water source for Beijing due to the pollutions from the upstream flow of Yongding River in 1997. From 1998, lots of studies were carryied out to renew the function of Guanting Reservoir as domestic drinking water source before 2008 Olympic Games. This is the first time that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations in the surface sediment of Guanting Reservoir have been analyzed. A distinctive spatial distribution of PAHs was observed. Sediments from four sites along Inlet of Yongding River to reservoir bam had PAHs concentrations of 1377--2855 μg/g dw in descending order. The composition of PAHs is investigated and used to assess patrogenic,combustion and naturally derived of the sediments samples of Guanting Reservoir. Special PAHs ratios, such as phenanthrene/anthracene(P/A) and fluoranthene/pyrene(Fl/Pyr) were calculated to assess the relative importance of different origins. The data confirmed a relatively high level of petrogenic contamination in four sites. These high PAHs levels were associated with the input of untreated and partially treated industrial sewage. In addition, the concentrations of PAHs compounds of samples indicated that sediments of reservoir were most likely to pose potential biological impairment.
