Soil organic matter level was higher in black Andosols distributing 67% of the watershed area of the Oita River than in Cambisols covering 90% of the watershed area of Yamakuni River. However, the DOM concentration in the Yamakuni River (0.44 - 1.62 mg·C·L-1) tended to be higher than that in the Oita River (0.13 - 1.37 mg·C·L-1). DHS accounted for 49% - 80% of DOM in both rivers. Fe and DOM-Fe concentrations showed a trend to increase toward downstream but decrease at the estuary in both rivers. DOM-Fe accounted for 26% - 90% and 55% - 93% of dissolved Fe in the Yamakuni and Oita Rivers, respectively. Correlation analysis suggested that the DOM-Fe concentration in the river water was controlled by the capacity for supplying Fe ions rather than that for supplying DOM. Although the ability to form a complex with Fe was suggested to be greater in the DOM in the Oita River than that in the Yamakuni River, the DOM-Fe concentration at the estuary was similar in the two rivers. Thus, the effect of soil organic matter level in the watershed area on the supply of Fe or DOM-Fe to the estuarine ecosystem was not significant.展开更多

The newest thermodynamic data ofgold hydrolysis show that the gold solubility is controlled by Au(OH)·H<sub>2</sub>O rather than by AuCl<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup> in mostof the supergene water environment. The deposition process of gold is related to the changes of physicaland chemical properties in the environment, and to sorption. A few studies have been done on thesorption of gold complexes on Fe oxides, metal sulfides, Mn oxide and humic acid, respectively. Butno comparison among their sorption has been made under the same experimental conditions. This study deals with the sortition of Au (Ⅲ) chloride, Au (Ⅰ) chloride and thiosulphate展开更多
