Land application of biosolids from processed sewage sludge may deteriorate soil, water, and plants. We investigated the impact of the N-Viro biosolids land-application on the quality of the soil water that moved through Orthic Humo-Ferric Podzols soil of Nova Scotia (NS) at the Wild Blueberry Research Institute, Debert, NS Canada. In addition, the response of major soilproperties and crop yield was also studied. Wild blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium. Ait) was grown under irrigated and rainfed conditions in 2008 and 2009. Four experimental treatments including (i) NI: N-Viro irrigated, (ii) NR: N-Viro rainfed, (iii) FI: inorganic fertilizer irrigated, and (iv) FR: inorganic fertilizer rainfed (control) were replicated 4 times under randomized complete block design. Soil samples were collected at the end of each year and analyzed for changes in cation exchange capacity (CEC), soil organic matter (SOM), and pH.Soil water samples were collected four times during the study period from the suction cup lysimeters installed within and below crop root zone at 20 and 40 cm depths, respectively. The samples were analyzed for a range of water quality parameters including conductance, hardness, pH, macro- and micronutrients, and the infectious pathogens Escherichia coli (E. coli) and salmonella. Berries were harvested for fruit yield estimates. Irrigation significantly increased CEC during 2008 and the soil pH decreased from 4.93 (2008) to 4.79 (2009). There were significant influences of irrigation, fertilizer, and their interaction, in some cases, on most of the soil water quality parameters except on the infectious bacteria. No presence of E. coli or salmonella were observed in soil and water samples, reflecting the absence of these bacteria in biosolids used in this experiment. Nutrient concentration in the soil water samples collected from the four treatments were higher in the sequence NI > NR > FI > FR. The irrigation treatment had significant effect on the unripe fruit yield. We conclude that the comparable performance of N-Viro biosolids and the increasing prices of inorganic fertilizers would compel farmers to use economically available N-Viro biosolids that, coupled with the supplemental irrigation, did not deteriorate the studied soil properties, soil water quality, and the wild blueberry yield during this experiment. 相似文献

Simulation of Ekman Boundary Layers by Large Eddy Model with Dynamic Mixed Subfilter Closure 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
I. Esau 《Environmental Fluid Mechanics》2004,4(3):273-303
Theoretical analysis of boundary layer turbulence has suggested a feasibility of sufficiently accurate turbulence resolving
simulations at relatively coarse meshes. However, large eddy simulation (LES) codes, which employ traditional eddy-viscosity
turbulence closures, fail to provide adequate turbulence statistics at coarse meshes especially within a surface layer. Manual
tuning of parameters in these turbulence closures may correct low order turbulence statistics but severely harms spectra of
turbulence kinetic energy (TKE). For more than decade, engineering LES codes successfully employ dynamic turbulence closures.
A dynamic Smagorinsky turbulence closure (DSM) has been already tried in environmental LES. The DSM is able to provide adequate
turbulence statistics at coarse meshes but it is not completely consistent with the LES equations. This paper investigates
applicability of an advanced dynamic mixed turbulence closure (DMM) to simulations of Ekman boundary layers of high Reynolds
number flows. The DMM differs from the DSM by explicit calculation of the Leonard term in the turbulence stress tensor. The
Horizontal Array Turbulence Study (HATS) field program has revealed that the Leonard term is indeed an important component
of the real turbulence stress tensor.
This paper presents validation of a new LES code LESNIC. The study shows that the LES code with the DMM provides rather accurate
low order turbulence statistics and the TKE spectra at very coarse meshes. These coarse LES maintain more energetic small
scale fluctuations of velocity especially within the surface layer. This is critically important for success of simulations.
Accurate representation of higher order turbulence statistics, however, requires essentially better LES resolution. The study
also shows that LES of the Ekman boundary layer cannot be directly compared with conventionally neutral atmospheric boundary
layers. The depth of the boundary layer is an important scaling parameter for turbulence statistics. 相似文献
