Assessment of soil erosion under rainfed sugarcane in KwaZulu‐Natal,South Africa

Soil erosion from agricultural land use runoff is a major threat to the sustainability of soil composition and water resource integrity. Sugarcane is an important cash and food security crop in South Africa, subjected to an intensive soil erosion, and consequently, severe land degradation. This study aimed to investigate soil erosion and associated soil and cover factors under rainfed sugarcane, in a small catchment, KwaZulu‐Natal, South Africa. Three replicated runoff plots were installed at different slope positions (down, mid and upslope) within cultivated sugarcane fields to monitor soil erosion during the 2016–2017 rainy season. On average, annual runoff (RF) was significantly greater from 10 m² plots with 1163.77 ± 2.63 l/m/year compared to 1 m² plots. However, sediment concentration (SC) was significantly lower in 10 m² (0.34 ± 0.04 g/l) compared to 1 m² (6.94 ± 0.24 g/l) plots. The annual soil losses (SL) calculated from 12 rainfall events was 58.36 ± 0.77 and 8.84 ± 0.20 t/ha from 1 m² and 10 m² plots, respectively. The 1 m² plot, SL (2.4 ± 1.41 ton/ha/year) in the upslope experienced 33% more loss than the midslope and 50% more loss than the downslope position. SL was relatively lower from the 10 m² plots than the 1 m² plots, which is explained by high sediment deposition at the greater plot scale. SL was negatively correlated with the soil organic carbon stocks (r = ?0.82) and soil surface cover (r = ?0.55). RF decreased with the increase of slope gradient (r = ?0.88) and soil infiltration rate (r = ?0.87). There were considerable soil losses from cultivated sugarcane fields with low organic matter. These findings suggest that to mitigate soil erosion, soil organic carbon stocks and vegetation cover needs to be increased through appropriate land management practices, particularly in cultivated areas with steep gradients.     

Evaluation of ecological restoration success in mining‐degraded lands

This review article analyzes the importance of assessing the success of ecological restoration by using four indicators: assemblage of the plant and animal communities; enzyme activity; litter accumulation and decomposition; and the improvement of soil quality. These indicators can be used alone or in combinations. Even though the Society for Ecological Restoration International provided a primer containing nine attributes to use as standards for measuring ecological restoration, only three of these attributes could be easily applied due to their low costs and low time requirements. These three attributes include: diversity, vegetation structure, and ecological processes. This review article emphasizes that the criteria for the selection of the indicator species should be based upon: habitat types, abundance of species, ease of measuring, quantifying and interpreting the results, gradual enhancement with time and cost‐effectiveness, sensitivity, variability of response, size, residential status, and requirements of the area. Principal component analysis was applied to calculate the reclaimed mine soil quality index (RMSQI) and the forest soil quality index (FSQI) and the RMSQI value was compared with FSQI (optimum index value of reference ecosystem) to evaluate the restoration success. Available phosphorus, exchangeable magnesium, organic carbon, clay content, field moisture, available nitrogen, electrical conductivity, and pH are identified as the most influential parameters that regulate the health of reclaimed mine soil. Exchangeable calcium, magnesium, cation exchange capacity, sand, silt, clay content, field moisture, available phosphorus, and pH are the controlling properties for forest soil. The observed values of the above‐stated soil indicator properties were converted into a unitless score (0–1.00) and integrated into index calculations (RMSQI and FSQI). The contribution of each soil indicator properties on the calculated index was analyzed, which provides insight into the reason for the measured index. A higher RMSQI indicates better ecological restoration success. The calculated RMSQI was found to be 0.473 in the reclaimed dump, which is 6% lower than the reference ecosystem.     

Aquatic Plant and Dissolved Oxygen Changes in a Reference‐Condition Prairie Stream Subjected to Experimental Nutrient Enrichments

Effects of controlled nutrient additions on a prairie stream were studied using a before‐after‐control‐impact paired design. The site is in a reference condition with low soluble nitrate (NO₃) and phosphate (soluble reactive phosphorus [SRP]) in summer (3 μg NO₃‐N/L, 4 μg SRP/L). Nutrients were added to two reaches over the growing season at two levels (Low Dose — 39 μg NO₃‐N/L and 4.4 SRP/L; High Dose — 119 μg NO₃‐N/L and 15.6 μg SRP/L). Continuously measured dissolved oxygen (DO) and changes in aquatic flora were compared to an upstream Control. Enrichment led microalgae and filamentous algae to increase in density, areal coverage, and thickness, and the magnitude of the changes were largely concordant with dosing (more in the High Dose); algal growth also suppressed macrophytes in the High Dose. Enrichment caused significant increases in diel DO swings whose magnitudes were consistent with dosing level. In the High Dose, benthic algae flourished in the growing season and then senesced en masse in fall. The decomposing algae led DO to crash (ca. 0 mg/L on the bottom), but DO impacts were out‐of‐sync with peak algal growth and photosynthesis, which occurred weeks earlier. This finding provides a plausible explanation as to why high DO delta in streams impacts aquatic life even when concurrently measured DO is not low. When DO crashed, DO was longitudinally patchy, some areas having low DO near the bottom, others near saturation. Geomorphology and exposure to wind may have caused this pattern.     

施磷对香溪河黄棕壤磷素淋失的影响研究

为了阐明香溪河流域黄棕壤在降雨条件下磷素通过淋溶流失的特征,采取室内连续淋洗的方法对香溪河黄棕壤的磷素淋溶特征进行了研究。结果表明,磷素的淋溶损失随着施磷水平的提高而增加,不同施磷量处理的淋洗峰值出现的时间无显著差异,淋失的磷主要以可溶性磷为主。施肥提高了各土层土壤的有效磷含量,施肥后土壤无机磷各形态磷之间并没有明显的相互转化规律,但是各组分所占无机磷比例的高低呈现O-PCa-PFe-PAl-P的规律。

在建立土壤中痕量有机磷酸酯阻燃剂(OPEs)的GC-MS实验室分析方法基础上,定量分析了成都市主城区表层土壤中7种典型OPEs(磷酸三丁酯(Tn BP)、磷酸三异辛酯(TEHP)、磷酸三丁氧乙酯(TBEP)、磷酸三苯酯(TPh P)、磷酸三氯乙酯(TCEP)、磷酸三氯丙酯(TCPP)、磷酸三(2,3-二氯丙基)酯(TDCPP))的含量及分布特征,采用插值法和聚类分析研究其空间分布,运用相关性分析和正定矩阵因子分解法对土壤中OPEs的来源进行了探析.结果表明,成都市主城区表层土壤中7种OPEs(∑7OPEs)的含量水平在31.6~211 ng·g-1之间,算术平均值为99.9 ng·g-1.所有样品中TBEP均为含量最高的单体,其含量占∑7OPEs总含量的52%~92%.从空间分布来看,成都市西北至东南沿线为OPEs的主要分布带,三环外东北和西南则为OPEs的低值带.聚类分析结果表明,OPEs的谱特征与上述空间分布特征具有一致性,可分为2类地区:第1类地区位于主要分布带,属高值区(∑7OPEs平均值为133.1 ng·g-1),第2类地区位于低值区(∑7OPEs平均值为60.2 ng·g-1).两类地区的谱特征差异主要体现在TCEP与TBEP的百分含量上.相关性研究表明,Tn BP与TCEP之间可能有较强的同源性,TBEP、TPh P、Tn BP三者之间也可能具有较强的同源性,而TEHP与其他种类OPEs可能不具有同源性.正定矩阵因子分解结果表明,OPEs主要来源有2个,不饱和聚酯树脂产品制造业、建筑物装潢/室内源对成都市土壤中OPEs的贡献率分别为43%和57%.     

中国西南喀斯特森林土壤有机碳空间变化及影响因素

喀斯特地区土壤碳储量及其影响因素的认识是评估我国陆地土壤生态系统碳汇能力不可或缺的内容。本文通过对中国西南北起秦岭北坡南至中越边境一条剖面上土壤有机碳的分析,研究了喀斯特森林0~10cm土壤有机碳空间变化及其控制因素。研究发现西南地区土壤有机碳含量和碳密度平均为32.3 g/kg和33.1t/hm2。无论是在整个西南区还是其省市范围内,二者均低于非喀斯特森林土壤。通径分析表明,影响喀斯特表层土壤碳含量和密度的主要因素有土壤容重、地形海拔和有机质C/N;粘粒含量和年平均气温的影响很小,而降水量仅在地处最北部的陕西省构成了土壤碳密度的影响因素。此现象与世界许多地区特别是高纬度地区形成鲜明对比。本研究结果表明,不同区域/气候带土壤碳库的主要影响因素会存在很大差异,这对认识气候变化背景下土壤碳库的反馈作用具有重要意义。     

烧失量法测定土壤有机质含量的实验条件探究

烧失量法是测定有机质含量的可靠手段,以其方便、快捷、经济等优点被广泛应用于土壤学、地质学、湖泊学等研究中。但由于对煅烧过程的研究较少,煅烧条件的选择不统一,使得不同实验条件下测定结果的可比性较差。本研究使用带烧失称重系统的马弗炉,对中国北方有机质含量不同的三种类型土壤进行了烧失量测定实验,通过观察土壤重量随温度和时间变化的连续失重过程,对煅烧温度、煅烧恒温时长、样品量及升温速率等实验条件进行了系统研究,确立了烧失量法适宜的实验条件组合。实验结果表明:升温速率宜选择3℃/min;样品量建议选用3~5 g,有机物含量低的样品可适量增加;不同类型土壤的适宜煅烧温度略有差别,黑土和栗钙土建议选用550℃,而黑垆土选用500℃或550℃;恒温2h可获得较为稳定的烧失量结果。
