Fractal characterization of sediment particle-size distribution in the water-level fluctuation zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir, China

The combined effect of periodic water impoundment and seasonal natural flood events has created a 30 m high water-level fluctuation zone(WLFZ) around the Three Gorges Reservoir(TGR), China, forming a unique eco-landscape. Siltation, eutrophication, enrichment of heavy metals, and methane emissions in the WLFZ have been widely associated with sediment and soil particles generated from the upstream catchment or upland slopes. However, little attention has been paid to the complexity of sediment particle-size distributions in the WLFZ. In the present study, core samples(from a 345 cm thick sediment core from the base of the WLFZ), slope transect surface samples(across/up a WLFZ slope), and along-river/longitudinal surface samples(from the reservoir reaches) were collected. Laser granulometry and a volume-based fractal model were used to reveal the characteristics of sediment particle-size distributions. Results indicate that the alternation of coarse and fine particles in the sedimentary core profile is represented as a fluctuation of low and high values of fractal dimension(D), ranging from 2.59 to 2.77. On the WLFZ slope transect, surface sediment particles coarsen with increasing elevation, sand content increases from 3.3% to 78.5%, and D decreases from 2.76 to 2.53. Longitudinally, surface sediments demonstrate a downstream-fining trend, and D increases gradually downstream. D is significantly positively correlated with the fine particle content. We conclude that D is a useful measure for evaluating sediment particle-size distribution.

Spatial distribution,sources and ecological risk assessment of heavy metals in Shenjia River watershed of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area

Surface soil/sediment samples were collected from the Water-Level Fluctuation Zone(WLFZ), cultivated land and forest land at 50 different grid points from Shenjia watershed, the Three Gorges Reservoir area in August 2013. The spatial distribution, sources and ecological risk assessment for Arsenic(As), Cadmium(Cd),Chromium(Cr), Copper(Cu), Nickel(Ni), Lead(Pb)and Zinc(Zn) were analyzed in this study. The results showed all tested metals had similar distribution patterns except Ni and Cr, with areas of high concentrations distributed in the southwest(WLFZ and watershed outlet) of the study area. Ni and Cr,which were highly positively correlated and present in high concentrations, were primarily distributed in the south and middle zones of the study area. Lower concentration areas of all metals were uniformly distributed west of the high-elevation zones and forest land. Factor analysis(FA) and factor analysismultiple linear regression(FA-MLR) showed that the major sources of Cd were fertilizer and traffic sources,which together accounted for 87% of Cd. As, Zn and Cu levels were primarily supplied by industrial and domestic sources, accounting for 76% of As, 75% of Cu and 67% of Zn. Surface soils/sediments of the study watershed contaminated by Cd represent a high ecological risk, whereas other metals represent low ecological risks. The potential ecological risk index(PERI) analysis indicated that it had a low(widerange) ecological risk and a moderate(small-range)ecological risk primarily distributed in the outlet of the study watershed. Fertilizers and traffic are the primary sources of Cd pollution, which should be more closely controlled for the purposes of water quality and ecological conservation.

Estimation of soil reinforcement by the roots of four postdam prevailing grass species in the riparian zone of Three Gorges Reservoir, China

Soil erosion and bank degradation is a major post-dam concern regarding the riparian zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir. The development and succession of vegetation is a main countermeasure,especially to enhance bank stability and mitigate soil erosion by the root system. In this study, the roots of four prevailing grass species, namely, Cynodon dactylon, Hemarthria altissima, Hemarthria compressa, and Paspalum paspaloides, in the riparian zone were investigated in relation to additional soil cohesion. Roots were sampled using a single root auger. Root length density（RLD） and root area ratio（RAR） were measured by using the Win RHIZO image analysis system. Root tensile strength（TR） was performed using a manualdynamometer, and the soil reinforcement caused by the roots was estimated using the simple Wu＇s perpendicular model. Results showed that RLD values of the studied species ranged from 0.24 cm/cm3 to20.89 cm/cm3 at different soil layers, and RLD were significantly greater at 0–10 cm depth in comparison to the deeper soil layers（＆gt;10 cm）. RAR measurements revealed that on average 0.21% of the reference soil area was occupied by grass roots for all the investigated species. The measured root tensile strength was the highest for P. paspaloides（62.26MPa） followed by C. dactylon（51.49 MPa）, H.compressa（50.66 MPa）, and H. altissima（48.81MPa）. Nevertheless, the estimated maximum root reinforcement in this investigation was 22.5 k Pa for H.altissima followed by H. compressa（21.1 k Pa）, P.paspaloides（19.5 k Pa）, and C. dactylon（15.4 k Pa） at0–5 cm depth soil layer. The root cohesion values estimated for all species were generally distributed at the 0–10 cm depth and decreased with the increment of soil depth. The higher root cohesion associated with H. altissima and H. compressa implies their suitability for revegetation purposes to strengthen the shallow soil in the riparian zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir. Although the soil reinforcement induced by roots is only assessed from indirect indicators, the present results still useful for species selection in the framework of implementing and future vegetation recovery actions in the riparian zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir and similar areas in the Yangtze River Basin.

Malaria Transmission Potential in the Three Gorges Reservoir of the Yangtze River, China

Objective To define and evaluate the malaria transmission potential in the Yangtze River, following construction of the Three Gorges Reservoir. Methods Six villages, namely, Kaixian, Fengjie, Wanzhou, Fuling, Yubei, and Zigui were selected for investigating the malaria transmission potential in the reservoir. Transmission potential was estimated by mathematical modeling and evaluation of the local malaria situation. Factors that influenced the transmission potential were analyzed using Poisson regression analysis in combination with Grey Systematic Theory （based on evaluation by the Delphi method）. Results Indirect fluorescent antibody data and the incidence of malaria in the local population were consistent with the malaria transmission potential calculated for the area. Multivariate Poisson regression analysis showed a statistically significant association between the riparian zone and the man‐biting rate. Conclusion The risk of a malaria epidemic can be forecasted using the malaria transmission potential parameters investigated here which was closely correlated with the riparian zone.

After the completion of the Three Gorges dam, a 30 m high water-level-fluctuating zone （WLFZ） will appear along the banks, and will form a seasonal wetland ecosystem. According to the program of storing water in the Three Gorges reservoir, the main ecological and environmental problems probably incurred in WLFZ are discussed, such as formation of contaminated belt along banks, appearance of epidemic diseases in the reservoir region （including urban districts）, aggravation of geologic disasters, degradation of biodiversity and exacerbation of the ecosystem vulnerability. Six items of strategies are put forward according to the causes, distributed features and trends of these problems in this paper.

Protection and Ecological Restoration of Water Level Fluctuation Zone in the Three Gorges Reservoir

Water level fluctuation zone(hereinafter referred to as "WLFZ") is a transitional ecosystem between terrestrial ecosystem and aquatic ecosystem,and also a key area to control its neighboring terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem.

Effects of phosphorus fertilizer application rate on transformation processes of phosphorus fractions in the purple alluvial soil of a riparian zone

Effects of phosphorus(P)fertilizer application rate on soil transformation processes of P fraction are still unclear in the riparian zone.Purple alluvial soils in the riparian zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir were collected to conduct a 21-day incubation executed by two hydrological environments(drying and flooding)and ten application rates of P fertilizer.Transformation percentages of P fertilizer(TPPF)were calculated as content differences of soil P fractions between fertilizer addition and none fertilizer addition divided by soil total P increases caused by fertilizer addition.TPPF to inorganic P extracted by sodium hydroxide(NaOH-Pi)and hydrochloric acid(HCl-Pi)increase by 20.91%(9.71%)and 24.26%(40.72%)under the drying(flooding)environment.Instead,TPPF to the other fractions decrease.Phosphorus fertilizer input mainly has indirect positive and negative effects on organic P via precipitated P under the drying and flooding environments and finally has indirect positive effects on labile P(p<0.001).Percentage changes of water-soluble inorganic P(H2O-Pi)and HCl-Pi under the flooding environment are higher than that under the drying environment,and percentage changes of organic P extracted by sodium hydrogen carbonate(Na HCO3-Po)and NaOH-Pi show an opposite trend(p<0.01).?(differences in soil P fraction content between flooding and drying incubations)H2O-Pi is negatively correlated with?NaHCO3-Po,and?NaHCO3-Po is positively correlated with?NaOH-Pi(p<0.001).In conclusion,P fertilizer is transformed more into precipitated P than into other P fractions with an application rate increase.Phosphorus fertilizer input mainly increases organic P via precipitated P under the drying environment and decreases organic P via precipitated P under the flooding environment,and organic P is further transformed into labile P.With P fertilizer input,P release caused by flooding is derived from NaHCO3-Po release triggered by NaOH-Pi release.The results can be helpful for the understanding of P fertilizer migration processes from the riparian zone soil to the Three Gorges Reservoir under rain leaching and flooding.

周期性水位波动对三峡水库消落带土壤有机碳含量和密度的影响

为探究水位波动对三峡水库消落带土壤有机碳的影响,在三峡水库消落带采集和测定了受不同水淹强度影响的石灰土、紫色土、黄壤及其植物样品,并运用Kruskal-Wallis非参数检验和基于冗余分析的典范分析等方法进行了研究。结果表明:周期性水淹增加了石灰土和紫色土的有机碳含量和密度,但降低了黄壤的有机碳含量和密度。此外,石灰土的有机碳分布还受地上生物量、土壤pH和土层深度的影响,紫色土的有机碳分布还受土层深度和地上生物量的影响,而黄壤的有机碳含量和密度则与地上生物量、土层深度和地下生物量有关。总之,周期性水位波动对消落带土壤有机碳影响深刻,但土壤类型分异了有机碳对水位波动的响应。

Distribution and sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and phthalic acid esters in water and surface sediment from the Three Gorges Reservoir

After the impoundment of the Three Gorges Reservoir（TGR）, the hydrological situation of the reservoir has changed greatly. The concentration and distribution of typical persistent organic pollutants in water and sediment have also changed accordingly. In this study, the concentration, distribution and potential sources of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons（PAHs） and 6 phthalic acid esters（PAEs） during the water drawdown and impoundment periods were investigated in water and sediment from the TGR. According to our results, PAHs and PAEs showed temporal and spatial variations. The mean ΣPAH and ΣPAE concentrations in water and sediment were both higher during the water impoundment period than during the water drawdown period. The water samples from the main stream showed larger ΣPAH concentration fluctuations than those from tributaries. Both the PAH and PAE concentrations meet the Chinese national water environmental quality standard（GB 3838-2002）. PAH monomers with 2–3 rings and 4 rings were dominant in water, and 4-ring and 5–6-ring PAHs were dominant in sediment. Di-n-butyl phthalate（DBP） and di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate（DEHP）were the dominant PAE pollutants in the TGR. DBP and DEHP had the highest concentrations in water and sediment, respectively. The main source of PAHs in water from the TGR was petroleum and emissions from coal and biomass combustion, whereas the main sources of PAHs in sediments included coal and biomass combustion, petroleum, and petroleum combustion. The main source of PAEs in water was domestic waste, and the plastics and heavy chemical industries were the main sources of PAEs in sediment.

Dynamics of total culturable bacteria and its relationship with methylmercury in the soils of the water level fluctuation zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir

Field investigations were conducted to study the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of total culturable bacteria(TCB)and its relationship with methylmercury(MeHg)in the soils of the water level fluctuation zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir.Different altitudes(170–180,170–175,165–170 and 160–165 m)in Zhenxi(Site 1),Shibaozhai(Site 2)and Tujing(Site 3),Chongqing,China were chosen as sampling sites.Results indicated that TCB did not have significant difference in the top(0–10 cm)and sub(10–20 cm)soil of the non-inundated area(175–180 m),but showing a significant difference in the water level fluctuation zone(\175 m,suggesting that water level fluctuation had an important effect on TCB.Moreover,TCB in soils of various altitudes of Site 1 and 2had significant difference,while for Site 3,this difference was not significant.And the difference of TCB in Site 2was much greater than that in Site 1.These results suggested that there were significant differences for TCB in soils of mainstream and tributaries.In addition,TCB in soils of 10–20 cm had significant or highly significant positive correlations with MeHg level(r C 0.762,P B 0.048),thus we assumed that there may be some aerobic microorganisms playing dominant roles in mercury methylation.

Redox-driven shifts in soil microbial community structure in the drawdown zone after construction of the Three Gorges Dam

Soil redox is a critical environmental factor shaping the microbial community structure and ultimately alters the nutrient cycling.However,the response of soil microbial community structure to prolonged or repeated redox fluctuations is not yet clear.To study the dynamic effects of prolonged redox disturbances to the soil microbial community structure,soil samples experiencing 8,5 and 0 alternating oxic-anoxic cycles within approximately 6 months each year were collected and the microbial community structure were evaluated using phospholipid fatty acid analysis(PLFA)profiles.Prolonged redox disturbances had significant effects on soil physiochemical properties and soil microbial community structure.The relative abundance of straight chain saturated PLFAs,cyclopropyl,and terminal-and mid-branched chain saturated PLFAs increased due to prolonged redox disturbances,but there was a consistent decrease in linear monounsaturated PLFAs and polyunsaturated PLFAs in the fluctuating zone.Prolonged redox disturbances had a negative impact on the total PLFA content(a proxy for biomass).Both the fluctuating zone(8-cycle and 5-cycle plots)and the never flooded zone(0-cycle plots)were dominated by Gram-positive bacteria and a low content of fungi,actinomycetes and protozoa.The fungi and protozoa abundance decreased significantly with an increase in the occurrence of alternating flooding-dry events,suggesting that the prolonged redox disturbance leads to high stress on the fungi and protozoa populations.Moreover,total organic matter(TOC)and C:N ratio,environmental factors that can be influenced by recurring redox fluctuations,also influenced the microbial community structure.

三峡水库消落带土壤反硝化及DOM的影响

在重庆主城与涪陵选取了3个典型点位采集土壤样品,并对土壤的理化性质、原位反硝化速率、溶解性有机质(DOM)驱动的反硝化以及库区土壤的微生物进行了考察与分析.结果显示在海拔145~155m区间,淹水期镇安镇、涪陵区和鱼嘴镇最高氨氮(NH_(4)^(+)-N)平均浓度分别为31.32,28.63和19.23mg/kg,均高于落干期.在淹水期,与高海拔区域土壤中硝酸盐氮(NO_(3)^(-)-N)平均浓度相比,低海拔土壤中NO_(3)^(-)-N平均浓度分别增大了46.91%(镇安镇)、37.89%(涪陵区)和29.69%(鱼嘴镇).在淹水期,土壤有机质(SOM)平均浓度随着海拔高程的降低而降低,镇安镇、涪陵区和鱼嘴镇分别从109.16,80.93和82.61mg/kg降至65.63,64.53,53.41mg/kg.土壤中NH_(4)^(+)-N和NO_(3)^(-)-N的含量与现场反硝化速率呈显著正相关(P<0.05),在提供充足的碳(C)和氮(N)营养元素后,土壤潜在反硝化速率表现出较大的时间和空间差异性.在由DOM驱动的反硝化实验中,DOM降解符合一级动力学模型(R^(2)>0.93),N2O累积量符合Logistic模型(R^(2)>0.97).在三峡水库消落带土壤中,反硝化功能微生物主要是Bacillus和Comamonadaceae,其丰度变化与土壤潜在反硝化速率呈现显著的正相关性(P<0.05).

基于“微地形—植物”协同的三峡库区城市消落带修复设计与评估

微地形与植物的协同作用是自然河岸带生态系统维持结构稳定与生物多样性的重要机制。三峡库区蓄水后,其沿岸城市的原有河岸带转变为周期性淹没且水位落差极大的消落带,内部地形与植被破坏严重,生物多样性快速衰退,对库区城市的生态安全造成负面影响。选取重庆市开州区汉丰湖北岸的乌杨坝消落带,首次基于“微地形—植物”协同提出消落带生态系统修复设计技术框架,并对修复后的消落带微地形、植物群落和鸟类群落进行调查分析,评估修复设计的实际效果。结果表明:丰富的微地形类型及其组合有效促进了乌杨坝消落带的植物多样性恢复;二者耦合作用,在不同水位条件下维持了鸟类生境异质性,使鸟类多样性得到提升。因此,“微地形—植物”协同设计有助于维持三峡水库消落带生态系统的结构稳定性及生物多样性,有利于生态服务功能的保障及发挥。

三峡库区城市河岸带草本植物功能性状及群落结构

选择位于三峡库区腹心的重庆主城长江段九龙滩河岸带,研究草本植物功能性状对三峡库区复杂水位变化的响应机理,分析环境胁迫条件下的草本植物CSR策略(竞争型、耐胁迫型、杂草型)及群落构建机制。研究发现,三峡库区城市河岸带内草本植物群落的Shannon-Wiener多样性指数、Simpson优势度指数和Gleason物种丰富度指数随海拔高程升高而增加,而Pielou均匀度指数则呈现出先降低后升高的变化趋势。比叶面积(SLA)和比根长(SRL)与海拔高程呈显著正相关,表明草本植物趋向于随着海拔升高而增加叶面积和根系长度以提高资源获取效率。叶干物质含量(LDMC)与海拔高程呈显著负相关,表明水淹胁迫严重的低海拔消落带区域内的草本植物倾向于形成较厚实的叶片以适应淹水胁迫。植物群落主要展现出耐胁迫型(S)策略,而耐胁迫-杂草型(S/SR)混合策略也广泛存在。S策略植物比例随海拔升高呈现出先减少后增加的趋势,而杂草型(R)策略植物比例则随高程增加先升高后降低;竞争型(C)策略植物比例则最低。结果指出,植物通过调整SLA、SRL和LDMC等功能性状,以及权衡不同海拔高程中这些性状的组合,从而优化其对水位变化的适应能力,并相应调整其CSR策略。本研究初步揭示了三峡库区城市河岸带草本植物对水位变化的响应机制,能够为建立稳定的河岸带草本植物群落和制定三峡库区城市河流景观的可持续管理策略提供重要的理论和实践依据。

基于Markov模型的三峡上游消落带土地利用变化预测

三峡水库蓄水后形成高程差30 m的消落带,以蓄满水位175 m为基准水平外扩150 m得到交错缓冲区。缓冲区土地利用情况较复杂,本研究通过研究库区上游缓冲区近20年土地利用的变化情况,分析前20年上游发展模式。通过马尔可夫函数来预测未来20年的土地利用变化可能,为上游区域未来规划发展方向提出建议。研究表明:(1)上游在发展过程中持续紧抓农业用地,可按目前的模式继续发展;(2)生态方面,森林、灌丛、草地等与生态环境相关的地类占比是有所提高的,目前发展政策是有利生态环境的,但由于水域面积增长导致裸岩增加,水土流失风险增加,需更加重视水土流失的防治;(3)经济发展与城镇化密切相关,城乡建设用地与道路占比不断上升,上游经济形势一片大好。综合来说,可按照2000~2020年的发展模式继续开发建设,但应在此基础上更加重视经济与环境的协同发展,尽量建设森林城市,通过工程护坡、生态护坡等技术来加强两岸土地的水土保持力度。
