滇池现代沉积物中磷的地球化学及其对环境影响

湖泊沉积物中 ,磷是产生富营养化的重要元素。湖泊中磷元素含量、地球化学行为以及它的复杂矿物学特征 ,使人们对磷的研究极为重视。滇池湖中总磷超标 10 .3倍 ,底泥沉积物中P2 O5平均含量 0 .5 2 % ,最高可达1.92 %。滇池地处磷矿区 ,是磷质来源最丰富的湖泊 ,统计表明 ,磷含量每年在不断增长。滇池沉积物中磷主要以吸附态、有机态、铁结合态、钙结合态、铝结合态等几种形式存在。这些形态磷在底泥中是不稳定的 ,它们在环境改变条件下 ,又将磷释放到水体中。微生物在磷的循环过程中起了重要作用 ,乳酸菌对不溶性磷酸盐的分解 ,使湖泊中可溶磷含量增高。聚磷菌对磷元素的富集以及聚磷菌死亡后发生有机磷的矿化作用 ,是湖泊中水合磷酸盐矿物沉积的重要途径。当湖泊中这种不稳定的水合磷酸盐矿物在条件具备的情况下 ,经沉积物覆盖成岩作用后 。

热带亚热带常绿阔叶林维持酸性土壤有效磷水平的磷转化过程

热带和亚热带酸性土壤磷矿物的沉淀通常被认为会限制土壤有效磷的供应.选择以西双版纳山地季风常绿阔叶林和哀牢山中山湿性常绿阔叶林为代表的热带亚热带酸性土壤,探讨两类森林维持土壤有效磷水平的磷转化过程.哀牢山中山湿性常绿阔叶林腐殖质厚、而西双版纳山地季风常绿阔叶林的腐殖质几乎不存在.两地均显示土壤有效磷库随着土壤有机质含量的减少而降低.有机质含量较低的西双版纳表层矿质土（0～10 cm）的微生物生物量磷库大于有机质含量相对较高的哀牢山表层矿质土的微生物生物量磷库,且微生物对磷的固定占有效磷来源（磷矿物的溶解和有机磷的矿化）的比例为74%,高于哀牢山表层矿质土的63%.哀牢山表层矿质土的土壤有效磷库大于西双版纳,其土壤有效磷库可能更多的依赖于覆盖于其上的腐殖质分解后向下的磷输入.与两地的矿质土相比,哀牢山腐殖质具有高的磷净溶解率、总有机磷矿化速率和磷微生物固定速率.结果表明,热带山地季风常绿阔叶林主要通过微生物固定来避免土壤磷矿物的沉淀和保持土壤磷的有效供应;而亚热带中山湿性常绿阔叶林除具有较高的微生物固定外,地表腐殖质层的存在也帮助避免土壤磷矿物的沉淀而保持土壤有效磷的供应.

鄱阳湖植食越冬候鸟粪便对洲滩湿地薹草枯落物分解过程及碳、氮、磷释放的影响

于2017年1月-2017年6月采用分解袋技术和鸟粪添加试验研究了鄱阳湖湿地植食性越冬水鸟粪便和典型洲滩湿地植物薹草枯落物分解过程中碳、氮、磷释放动态的差异性以及植食性越冬水鸟粪便的加入对鄱阳湖湿地薹草分解过程的影响.结果表明,不同分解时间内薹草枯落物、薹草+鸟粪中薹草枯落物和鸟粪3种样品的干物质损失率和分解速率的差异性都十分显著,其数值都表现为薹草+鸟粪中薹草样品>薹草枯落物样品>鸟粪样品.鸟粪的加入显著加速了薹草分解进程,使其平均分解速率提升了约21.23%. Olson负指数模型模拟预测显示,薹草+鸟粪中薹草、薹草枯落物和鸟粪样品分解完成50%所需的时间依次为259、314和355天,分解完成95%所需的时间大约依次约为3.1、3.7和4.2年. 3种样品碳、氮、磷都表现为净释放模式,其相对回归指数之间差异性也显著.碳相对归还指数都表现为薹草+鸟粪中薹草>薹草枯落物>鸟粪,氮相对归还指数和磷相对归还指数值都表现为鸟粪>薹草+鸟粪中薹草>薹草枯落物.本研究推测鸟粪添加给分解环境带来额外的营养物质,使分解者微生物的数量、种类、活性增加以及鸟粪刺激产生了一系列降解酶,如木质素酶、纤维素酶、蔗糖酶等,胞外酶数量和活性增加,是鸟粪促进薹草分解的关键因素,而样品中初始养分含量以及分解过程碳、氮、磷化学计量比的变化是造成其分解速率和养分释放差异显著的主要原因.

莱州湾南岸滨海湿地的氮、磷循环过程及调控对策

在莱州湾南岸滨海湿地的生物地球化学循环过程中,N、P元素主要来源于通过河流输入的工业废水、城市生活污水、农田地表径流、灌溉余水和海水养殖池养殖废水,通过潮上带、潮间带湿地最终被输送到潮下带近海湿地,引起潮下带近海湿地水体N、P含量的不断升高,2000年通过河流输入到莱州湾南岸的N总量为46 271.1 t,P总量为2 092.1 t。潮上带、潮间带自然湿地的底质、土壤和植物对N、P元素有显著的吸收、净化作用。以2000年为例,若不考虑自然湿地的吸收、净化作用,仅靠水体交换、扩散稀释,输送到潮下带近海湿地的N、P在海水中的含量为6.74 mg.L-1、0.299 mg.L-1,而当年潮下带近海湿地水体N、P含量实测值分别为0.086 mg.L-1、0.029 mg.L-1,计算值分别是实测值的78.4倍、10.3倍;说明自然湿地对输入的N、P有明显的吸收净化效应。为降低莱州湾南岸潮下带近海湿地海水中的N、P含量,提出了发展循环经济,减小莱州湾南岸滨海湿地的N、P输入通量,对自然湿地进行有效的保护和生态恢复,建设人工湿地、提高湿地的环境净化功能等调控措施。

Biogeochemical characteristics of nitrogen and phosphorus in Jiaozhou Bay sediments

Sediment samples were cored from 3 locations representing the inner bay, the outer bay and the bay mouth of Jiaozhou Bay in September 2003 to study the source and biogeochemical characteristics of nitrogen and phosphorus in the bay. The content and vertical distributions of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), organic nitrogen (ON), organic phosphorus (OP), inorganic nitrogen (IN), inorganic phosphorus (IP), the ratio of organic carbon and total nitrogen (OC/TN), and the ratio of total nitrogen and total phosphorus (TN/TP) in the sediments were analyzed. The results show that both TN and TP in surface sediments decrease from the inner bay to the outer bay. In general, ON occupies 50%?70% of TN and IP accounts for more than 60% of TP. In ratio of OC:TN, the nitrogen accumulated in the sediments from the inner bay and the bay mouth came mainly from terrestrial sources, and the portion of autogenetic nitrogen was 28.9% and 13.1%, respectively. However, in the outer bay, nitrogen was mainly autogenetic, accounting for 62.1% of TN, whereas phosphorus was mainly land-derived. The sedimentation fluxes of nitrogen and phosphorus varied spatially. The overall diagenesis rate of nitrogen was higher than that of phosphorus. Specifically, the diagenesis rate of OP was higher than that of IP. However, the diagenesis rate of ON was not always higher than that of IN. In species, the diagenesis rate of IN is sometimes much higher than that of the OC. In various environments, the diagenesis rate is, to some degree, affected by OC, pH, Eh, and Es.

Forms of phosphorus and silicon in the natural grain size surface sediments of the southern Bohai Sea

The forms of phosphorus and silicon in the natural grain sizes surface sediments of the southern Bohai Sea were studied. In sediments, the organic matter bound form of phosphorus was the main form of transferable phosphorus and ranged from 0.37 μmol/g to 1.57 μmol/g, accounting for 10.7% of the total phosphorus, others were the carbonate bound form, iron manganese oxide bound form and ion exchange able form; the transferable form of phosphorus accounted for 19.2% of the total phosphorus. Silicon’s carbonate bound form was predominant over others among its transferable forms, and content ranged from 1.55 μmol/g to 8.94 μmol/g, accounting for 0.05% of the total silicon; the total amount of transferable silicon forms accounted for only 0.12% of the total silicon. Therefore, 19.2% of the total phosphorus and 0.12% of the total silicon contained in the surface sediments of the southern Bohai Sea could participate in the biogeochemical cycling.

BIOGEOCHEMICAL PROCESSES OF PHOSPHORUS AND SILICON IN SOUTHERN BOHAI SEA SURFACE SEDIMENTS

Based on the author’s previously obtained results on P and Si forms in southern Bohai Sea surface sediments,this study mainly foucusing on the controlling factors, existence forms, and biogeochemical processes of P and Si showed that the transferable forms of phosphorus in sediments were mainly controlled by the mineralization of organic matters and the reduction of high valence iron; whereas the transferable forms of silicon were possibly controlled by the dissolution and precipitation as well as biochemical processes of living organisms.

PH_3 monitoring in Arctic and Dalian bay areas

In this paper, we use pre-column 2 times low-temperature cryo-trap enrichment--gas chromatography（GC） /nitrogen and phosphorus detector（NPD）to detect and analyze phosphine in Arctic pole area for the first time. The results show phosphine exists in all of the samples in Arctic pole biosphere and phosphine concentration in Arctic atmosphere is between 18.54- 132.18 ng/m^3, almost the same as that in Antarctic atmosphere; phosphine concentration in Dalian bay sea surface sediments is between 116. 8- 554.3 ng/kg, almost the same as that reported in Jiao-zhou bay. Our research of phosphine will shed new light on the mechanisms showing how the phosphorus supplement influences the biogeochemical cycle and global warming.

Spatial Differentiation of Elements in Soils on Red-Earthy Hill Landscape of Central China

Samples of 21 soil profiles and 165 top soils from an area of approximate 1.5km^2 on red-earthy hill landscape were collected and analysed.The content of Ca,Mg,K,P,Fe,Mn,Zn and Cu in soils relate with the kind of parent material and the position of topography,however,there is great variation due to the local difference of the form of soil utilization.From the difference in spatial distribution of elements content,it is believed that eight kinds of elements are lost by chemical leaching and physical translocation,meanwhile some are added (such as Ca,P,K,Mg) and some mobilized (such as Fe,Mn,Zn,Cu and P) through cultivation,fertilization and irrigation in the soils on the landscape investigated.The sectional differentiation in abundance or deficiency of elements in top soils on the landscape investigated is distinct,which is important for carrying out agricultural management and reasonable fertilization according to local conditions.

Henry's Law constant for phosphine in seawater:determination and assessment of influencing factors

The Henry＇s Law constant （k） for phosphine in seawater was determined by multiple phase equilibration combined with headspace gas chromatography. The effects of pH, temperature, and salinity on k were studied. The k value for phosphine in natural seawater was 6.415 at room temperature （approximately 23℃）. This value increases with increases in temperature and salinity, but no obvious change was observed at different pH levels. At the same temperature, there was no significant difference between the k for phosphine in natural seawater and that in artificial seawater. This implies that temperature and salinity are major determining factors for k in marine environment. Double linear regression with Henry＇s Law constants for phosphine as a function of temperature and salinity confirmed our observations. These results provide a basis for the measurement of trace phosphine concentrations in seawater, and will be helpful for future research on the status of phosphine in the oceanic biogeochemical cycle of phosphorus.

Studying distribution of rare earth elements by classifiers,Se-Chahun iron ore,Central Iran

The increased production and price of rare earth elements(REEs) are indicative of their importance and of growing global attention. More accurate and practical exploration procedures are needed for REEs, and for other geochemical resources. One such procedure is a multivariate approach. In this study, five classifiers, including multilayer perceptron(MLP), Bayesian, k-Nearest Neighbors(KNN), Parzen, and support vector machine(SVM),were applied in supervised pattern classification of bulk geochemical samples based on REEs, P, and Fe in the Kiruna type magnetite-apatite deposit of Se-Chahun,Central Iran. This deposit is composed of four rock types:(1) High anomaly(phosphorus iron ore),(2) Low anomaly(metasomatized tuff),(3) Low anomaly(iron ore), and(4)Background(iron ore and others). The proposed methods help to predict the proper classes for new samples from the study area without the need for costly and time-consuming additional studies. In addition, this paper provides a performance comparison of the five models. Results show that all five classifiers have appropriate and acceptable performance. Therefore, pattern classification can be used for evaluation of REE distribution. However, MLP and KNN classifiers show the same results and have the highest CCRs in comparison to Bayesian, Parzen, and SVM classifiers. MLP is more generalizable than KNN and seems to be an applicable approach for classification and predictionof the classes. We hope the predictability of the proposed methods will encourage geochemists to expand the use of numerical models in future work.

Phosphatic microspherules and their geobiological implications from the Frasnian-Famennian transition at the Yangdi section, Guilin, South China

Abundant perfectly-preserved phosphatic microspherules have been discovered across the Frasnian-Famennian （F-F） transition from the Yangdi section in Guilin, Guangxi, South China. They are mostly spherical or elliptical in shape and about 150 gin in diameter with smooth exterior surfaces. Each microspherule consistently possesses a small dimple on the surface. The internal texture of microspherules consists of concentric light-colored apatite and dark-colored organic matter bands alternating around a central core. Conodonts have also been found preserved together with phosphatic microspherules in the same horizon, and the abundance of the former is obviously higher than that of the latter. Laser Raman spectral studies show close similarities in spectral patterns between the outer shells of phosphatic microspherules and the blade of the conodont genus Palmatolepis sp., as well as between the microspherule nucleus and the platform of the same conodont genus. Furthermore, the statistical results and geochemical data demonstrate that the elevated abundance of phosphatic microspherules roughly coincides with the blooms of bacteria and algae, but is later than the sharp increase of oceanic nutrients. The phosphatic microspherules are inter- preted here to be the ＇otoliths＇ secreted by conodont animals based on the compositional similarities between phosphatic mi- crospherules and conodonts and their interrelated abundances. In addition, an analogous study reveals morphological and tex- tural similarities between fish otoliths and phosphatic microspherules. The formation of phosphatic microspherules is probably related to seawater eutrophication. We speculate that the explosive growth of bacteria and algae is probably caused by the en- richment of nutrients that is most likely associated with the increase of terrestrial inputs, submarine hydrothermal activities or the upwelling anoxic bottom waters in the late Devonian, which would stimulate the conodont animals to secrete phosphatic microspherules--the ＇otoliths＇ of conodont animals. This study reveals the coupling relationship between organisms and envi- ronments from the perspective of phosphatic microspherules and provides new evidence for the cause of faunal crisis during the Late Devonian F-F transition.
