Degradation of benzo[a]pyrene in an experimentally contaminated paddy soil by vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides)

A pot experiment was conducted to study the effect of growing vetiver grass on the biodegradation of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) under glasshouse conditions. Plant biomass, microbial biomass C and degradation of B[a]P were determined. B[a]P disappeared faster in the plant treatments than in unplanted controls. Disappearance of B[a]P was accompanied by an increase in soil microbial biomass C. Vetiver grass may promote the biodegradation of B[a]P under flooded conditions by plant roots by stimulating the microbial biomass. Microbial biomass was the main factor affecting dissipation of B[a]P under flooded conditions.     

泗河水系沉积物磷的存在形态及其空间分布特征

基于对南水北调东线工程典型河流——泗河水系表层与柱状沉积物中磷的含量、存在形态和空间分布特征进行研究的基础上,进一步探讨了总磷（TP）及各形态磷与沉积物基本理化性质之间的关系和生态学意义.运用连续提取法将沉积物中的磷划分为可溶态或弱吸附态磷（S/L-P）、铝结合态磷（Al-P）、铁结合态磷（Fe-P）、还原态磷（RS-P）、钙结合态磷（Ca-P）和残渣态磷（RES-P）.结果表明,泗河水系表层沉积物ω（TP）为421.84～1 188.65 mg·kg^-1; 6种磷的形态中,含量最高的是Ca-P,占TP的40%以上;其次为Fe-P,占TP的20%以上;含量最低的是S/L-P,仅占TP的0.4%左右;河流下游表层沉积物中TP及各形态磷的含量普遍高于上游,这可能与下游附近城区工业废水和生活污水的大量排入有关.沉积物剖面TP含量上层样品中呈明显高于下层,说明近年来泗河水体磷污染呈加剧趋势;沉积物剖面各形态磷中Ca-P所占质量分数最大,其次是RES-P.相关性分析结果表明,表层沉积物中Fe与Fe-P、 Al与Al-P、 Ca与Ca-P和TOC与RS-P之间呈显著相关性;而...     

鸢尾和菖蒲不同器官对富营养化水体中氮磷的积累效应

将鸢尾和菖蒲种植在椰丝基质上并放入富营养化的水塘中,实验在自然条件下进行.分别测定鸢尾和菖蒲的根、茎、叶不同器官中氮、磷的含量和植物种植期间生物量的变化状况.结果表明,植物根、茎、叶对氮、磷的积累量有显著差异,叶是两种植物积累氮、磷的主要器官;叶中的氮、磷积累量在实验后期,即11月中下旬时达到峰值;菖蒲各器官氮、磷含量均高于鸢尾,但是单株鸢尾对氮、磷的积累量比菖蒲大.     

不同覆盖材料对沉积物P、N释放的抑制效果

以百花湖沉积物为实验对象,选取沸石、粘土、生物炭、褐铁矿和高岭土等5种覆盖材料开展模拟柱静态实验,研究上覆水中总氮(TN)、总磷(TP)和氨氮变化规律。在静态模拟柱90 d实验过程中,第45天时上覆水中TN、氨氮浓度最高,分别为8.79和6.10 mg/L。第45天时氨氮浓度最低的是生物炭组,为1.62 mg/L,第45天时TN浓度最低的是粘土组,为1.92 mg/L。第45天后上覆水TN、氨氮浓度下降,实验结束时生物炭组TN和氨氮浓度均最低,其浓度分别为0.74和0.42 mg/L。实验过程中TP浓度不断上升,到实验结束时空白组TP浓度0.42 mg/L,高岭土组TP浓度最低为0.027mg/L。百花湖水质主要超标指标为TP,而高岭土覆盖对沉积物中P释放的抑制优于其他4种材料,且在百花湖地区易获得、无污染,故建议以高岭土为百花湖原位覆盖材料。     

Benzo[a]pyrene exposure influences the cardiac development and the expression of cardiovascular relative genes in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos

It is reported that the most abundant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in weathered crude oils are cardiotoxic. However, the action mechanism of PAHs on vertebrate cardiovascular development and disease is unclear. In the present study, the cardiac morphology and functioning of zebrafish embryos exposed to benzo[a]pyrene [B(a)P], as a high-ring PAHs, for 72 h were observed and determined. The results showed that B(a)P exposure resulted in cardiac developmental defects in zebrafish embryos. Significant changes in expression level of multiple genes potentially critical for regulating the B(a)P-induced cardiovascular developmental defects were also found. A gene network regulating cardiac development perturbed by B(a)P exposure was identified and established by computational analysis and employment of some databases. The information from the network could provide a clue for further mechanistic studies explaining molecular events regulating B(a)P-mediated cardiovascular defects and consequences.     

百花湖消落带常见植物氮磷钾营养元素含量分布特征研究

于2011年9月在百花湖消落区进行随机采集,选取常见的30种百花湖消落带植物,如狗牙根(Cynodon dactylon)、牛鞭草(Hemarthria altissima)、白花三叶草(Trifolium repens)、喜旱莲子草(Alternanthera philoxeroides)、鬼针草(Bidens pilosa)、菖蒲(Acuros calamu Linn)等为研究对象,对其根、茎、叶中氮磷钾营养元素的分布进行比较研究.结果表明:大多数植物根、茎、叶中N、P、K含量表现出一致性,即K＞N＞P,并且N、P、K相互之间呈现出显著的正相关关系,这与该地区土壤中N、P、K的含量有着显著的关系.在同一植物不同器官中N、P、K的含量也表现出一致性,即叶＞茎＞根,并且根、茎、叶中的含量相互之间也呈现出现显著的正相关关系.消落区植物总体根、茎、叶的营养状况分别为低、中、高,并且地上部分的营养元素占整株植物总营养元素的平均值为80％以上.因此,收割地上部分的茎和叶,即可达到对土壤中N、P较好的处理效果.禾本科、蓼科及菊科植物中营养元素含量较低,又具有一定的耐水淹性,适宜在消落区水淹时间较长且土壤中N、P营养元素含量较低的这种特殊环境下生长.该研究揭示了百花湖消落区常见植物的营养状况,以及有助于筛选出适合消落区生长的植物,对控制水体富营养化和研究消落区生态系统的完整性有着重要的意义.

以慈溪杭州湾滨海湿地GEF项目区内芦苇(Phragmites australis)为研究对象,采用定位监测和实验室分析相结合的方法,系统分析了其地上生物量、氮、磷含量和储量在生长季节的动态变化,旨在为GEF项目的实施提供科学依据.结果发现,随着时间的推移,各器官生物量逐渐增加,叶片和地上生物量在9月份达到最大,此后又稍有降低,茎则在10月份达到最大;生长初期(4~5月份)叶片生物量氮、磷含量较高,6~7月份随着生物量剧增而迅速下降,8~9月份由于叶片生长放缓,含量又逐渐增加,此后随着叶片衰老又逐渐下降,而茎氮、磷含量在整个生长季节均呈现逐渐下降的过程;各器官氮、磷储量与生物量间存在较好的相关性,其变化趋势与生物量基本相同;叶片氮、磷储量在8月份达到最大值[分别为(10.28±3.88),(0.53±0.21)g/m2];茎和地上储量最大值则出现在9月份[分别为(7.33±2.22),(0.57±0.04),(16.48±1.07),(1.01±0.10)g/m2].     

Field demonstration of in situ immobilization of soil Pb using P amendments

A long-term field-scale demonstration project on the feasibility of using P to immobilize Pb in a Pb-contaminated urban soil was conducted. Phosphate was applied at an average rate of 3040 mg P/kg soil based on a P/Pb molar ration of 4.0, with four treatments: T₀, no P application; T₁, H₃PO₄ only; T₂, 1/2 H₃PO₄+1/2 CaH₂PO₄; and T₃, 1/2 H₃PO₄+1/2 phosphate rock. Soil samples were collected and analyzed 220 days after the P applications. For all P treatments, toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) extractable Pb levels in surface soils (0-10 cm) were reduced to below 5.0 mg Pb/l, with T₂ also effective in reducing the TCLP Pb level in subsurface soils (10-30 cm, <4.63 mg/l). Sequential extraction analysis indicates that P was effective in transforming soil Pb from non-residual fractions to a residual fraction. Such a transformation was mainly through dissolution of Pb associated with carbonate fraction and precipitation of pyromorphite-like minerals, which were confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD). Among these three treatments, T₃ was the most effective in reducing Pb mobility and minimizing P and Pb leaching in the soil. Our research clearly demonstrates that P amendments were effective in immobilizing Pb in contaminated soil.
