典型电器工业区河涌沉积物中的多溴联苯醚空间和垂直分布

对珠江三角洲佛山市顺德区容桂镇电器工业区河涌沉积物多溴联苯醚(PBDEs)的含量进行了空间和垂直分布研究.选择该镇中心城区内河涌作为研究河道,根据河涌水流情况选取8个采样点采集沉积物样品.所有样品中均检出PBDEs.各监测点的PBDEs总含量变化范围为62～349 ng.g-1(平均为178 ng.g-1),各采样点的浓度差异较大.其中,十溴联苯醚含量为56～337 ng.g-1(平均为171 ng.g-1),占PBDEs总含量的90%～99%(平均95%).所检测到的部分同系物(如BDE-196、197和203)可能是BDE-209的降解产物.PBDEs的垂直分布模式显示,0～10 cm层面样品的PBDEs浓度为147 ng.g-1,30～40 cm层面样品的PBDEs浓度为260 ng.g-1,PBDEs在沉积物中的丰度随垂直深度的增加而增加.12种同系物在采自各个深度层样品中的比例基本相同,由十溴工业品来源的BDE-209、208、207和206占总PBDEs的94%,而五溴和八溴所占比例较低.由此可见,该地区普遍存在PBDEs污染,其中十溴联苯醚是最主要污染物,这可能与十溴工业品是电器工业主要使用的阻燃材料相关.     

镧沸石对磷和重金属的吸附与底泥钝化性能

矿业开采加工排放的重金属污染物会进入底泥中,与其中的磷形成复合污染.然而,目前关于底泥钝化的研究多数仅针对单一污染物.考察了新型钝化剂——镧沸石对P、Zn和Pb的吸附性能,及其对疏浚底泥中相应污染物的钝化效果,并通过脱附实验、X射线光电子能谱（XPS）和X射线衍射（XRD）研究了其吸附机制.结果表明,镧沸石对P、Zn和Pb的最大吸附量分别为53.76、27.70和123.45mg ·g^-1;预吸附Zn和Pb对镧沸石的除磷性能影响不大,但Zn和Pb的吸附会受到预吸附抑制.投加质量分数0.83%和1.66%的镧沸石后底泥中的P、Zn和Pb均向稳定态/生物难利用形态转化.P、Zn和Pb都可以通过形成内圈络合物被镧沸石吸附,此外静电作用和表面沉淀也分别会对Zn和Pb的吸附形成贡献.投加镧沸石可实现疏浚底泥中磷和重金属的钝化.     

不同释放模式下网湖沉积物氮磷释放通量估算

网湖位于长江中游,富营养化问题突出,然而目前缺少对网湖内源氮、磷污染负荷的系统研究.通过采集原位柱状沉积物样品,分析了网湖沉积物氮、磷赋存量及空间分布特征.以野外再悬浮观测和室内静态培养相结合的方式,分析了底泥氮磷静态释放通量和再悬浮释放通量.结果表明：底泥TN、TP含量分别为1580～4530 mg·kg^-1(平均值3122 mg·kg^-1)和45～2106 mg·kg^-1(平均值913 mg·kg^-1),氮、磷累积污染量大.西北部湖湾I区表层沉积物TN含量最高,与该区接纳的来自于赛桥湖的污染物入湖通量最大有关.TP含量最高点位于湖心IV区,主要受历史投肥养殖造成的底泥磷累积污染影响.PO₄^3-的静态释放通量为7.4～50.9 mg·m^-2·d^-1,平均值为18.7 mg·m^-2·d^-1,沉积物能持续向上覆水释放PO₄^3-....     

The Reduction of Stranded Oil by In Situ Shoreline Treatment Options

The Svalbard Shoreline Field Trials quantified the effectiveness of sediment relocation, mixing, bioremediation, bioremediation combined with mixing, and natural attenuation as options for the in situ treatment of oiled mixed-sediment (sand and pebble) shorelines. These treatments were applied to oiled plots located in the upper beach at three experimental sites, each with different sediment character and wave-energy exposure. Systematic monitoring was carried out over a 400-day period to quantify oil removal and to document changes in the physical character of the beach, oil penetration, oil loading, movements of oil to the subtidal environment, biodegradation, toxicity, and to validate oil-mineral aggregate formation.The results of the monitoring confirmed that sediment relocation significantly accelerated the rate of oil removal and reduced oil persistence where oil was stranded on the beach face above the level of normal wave activity. Where the stranded oil was in the zone of wave action, sediment relocation accelerated the short-term (weeks) rate of oil loss from the intertidal sediments.Oil removal rates on a beach treated by mechanical mixing or tilling were not significantly higher than those associated with natural recovery. However there is evidence that mixing/tilling may have enhanced microbial activity for a limited period by increasing the permeability of the sediment.Changes in the chemical composition of the oil demonstrated that biodegradation was significant in this arctic environment and a bioremediation treatment protocol based on nutrient enrichment effectively doubled the rate of biodegradation. However, on an operational scale, the success of this treatment strategy was limited as physical processes were more important in causing oil loss from the beaches than biodegradation, even where this oil loss was stimulated by the bioremediation protocols.     

武汉东湖底质磷释放对水体的影响

以超额磷负荷为评价指标,计算武汉东湖底质中磷的可释放量为439.4t,底质磷释放实验表明其释放速率为9.47mg/m2·d。东湖底质磷释放对水体磷水平的贡献达到25%。预测在无新外源输入条件下,其内源污染仍会使水体在近20年内保持高的磷水平。     

不同水深条件下狐尾藻生长对沉积物氮磷的影响

采用巢湖原位试验研究了80、160和240 cm 3个水深条件下生长的沉水植物狐尾藻(Myriophyllum spicatum L.)对沉积物和间隙水中氮磷的影响。结果表明,狐尾藻的株高和生物量随着水深的增加总体呈下降趋势,并且其差异随着生长期的延长而加大,水深为240 cm的条件下狐尾藻具有最小的株高和生物量,即240 cm的大水深条件不利于狐尾藻的个体形态构建;而相对浅的水深条件(80和160 cm)则是其生长的较佳生境。狐尾藻的生长过程中能够通过根系吸收和根际环境的改变使沉积物和间隙水中的氮磷含量明显下降,一定程度上降低了沉积物氮磷向上覆水体释放的风险,并且其抑制能力随着不同水深条件下植株的长势不同而有所差异,即在植株生长良好的浅水条件下其对沉积物和间隙水中氮磷的抑制效果更佳。因此,较浅的水环境有利于沉水植物的生长,同时还能充分发挥植物对沉积物氮磷的控释作用。

珠海市中部主要供水水库沉积物重金属时空分布与风险评价

磨刀门和洪湾水道是珠江水系的主要出海口,受潮汐影响,沿线受其调水的凤凰山水库、大镜山水库和竹仙洞水库是粤港澳大湾区珠海市中部的重要饮用水水源地.为了解3座供水水库表层沉积物中的环境质量状况,于2019年丰、枯两季(8月和10月)对库区共15个采样点的8项重金属进行监测,并开展了相关性分析、地累积指数评价、生态风险评估和溯源分析.结果表明,8种重金属在3座水库中的含量平均值大小排序均为：竹仙洞水库>大镜山水库>凤凰山水库.凤凰山水库Hg、 Zn和Pb,大镜山水库Hg、 As、 Mn、 Ni、 Cu、 Zn和Pb,竹仙洞水库8种重金属含量分别超过广东省土壤重金属背景值的1.88～2.75、1.05～2.32和1.69～6.45倍.除凤凰山水库的As,大镜山水库的As和Cu,竹仙洞水库的Cr和Ni外,其余重金属含量均呈现枯水期>丰水期的特征.地累积指数法评价结果表明,3座水库污染程度为：竹仙洞水库>大镜山水库>凤凰山水库.其中,凤凰山水库和大镜山水库仅Hg、 Zn和Pb元素表现为轻度污染,竹仙洞水库整体均受到轻度或偏中度污染.潜在生态风险指数评价结果表明,凤凰山...     

近期长江口南支河道洪季含沙量时间变化及床沙再悬浮研究

基于2011年洪季在南支河道从小潮至大潮连续8天现场定点观测所获得水沙观测数据(包括潮流、悬沙浓度、悬沙粒度和表层沉积物样品),通过对悬沙浓度、悬沙粒度和沉积物在不同时刻的组成分析,以及流速、悬沙和底床切应力的相互影响分析,对长江河口南支河道悬沙随时间变化特性和河床沙再悬浮作用进行了研究。结果表明:观测期间南支主槽下段落潮水动力强于涨潮;落潮悬沙浓度高于涨潮,并由小潮至大潮逐渐增加;落潮悬沙粒径粗于涨潮,并随小潮至大潮不断粗化;河床沉积物颗粒较粗,细砂类组成达到90%以上;流速、悬沙及底床切应力之间存在显著相关性;河床泥沙再悬浮强度较强,其量值有限。而近期研究区域悬沙浓度和水沙关系发生变化,与流域来沙出现锐减有关。     

Streamside Forest Buffer Width Needed to Protect Stream Water Quality,Habitat, and Organisms: A Literature Review

This literature review addresses how wide a streamside forest buffer needs to be to protect water quality, habitat, and biota for small streams (≤~100 km² or ~5th order watershed) with a focus on eight functions: (1) subsurface nitrate removal varied inversely with subsurface water flux and for sites with water flux >50 l/m/day (~40% avg base flow to Chesapeake Bay) median removal efficiency was 55% (26‐64%) for buffers <40 m wide and 89% (27‐99%) for buffers >40 m wide; (2) sediment trapping was ~65 and ~85% for a 10‐ and 30‐m buffer, respectively, based on streamside field or experimentally loaded sites; (3) stream channel width was significantly wider when bordered by ~25‐m buffer (relative to no forest) with no additional widening for buffers ≥25 m; (4) channel meandering and bank erosion were lower in forest but more studies are needed to determine the effect of buffer width; (5) temperature remained within 2°C of levels in a fully forested watershed with a buffer ≥20 m but full protection against thermal change requires buffers ≥30 m; (6) large woody debris (LWD) has been poorly studied but we infer a buffer width equal to the height of mature streamside trees (~30 m) can provide natural input levels; (7, 8) macroinvertebrate and fish communities, and their instream habitat, remain near a natural or semi‐natural state when buffered by ≥30 m of forest. Overall, buffers ≥30 m wide are needed to protect the physical, chemical, and biological integrity of small streams.
