These schemes were compared to identify a simple, rapid and cheap protocol for routine estimation of Pb and Cd remobilizable fraction and the related potential risk. The comparison of these three approaches revealed their convergence in terms of mobility patterns observed for Pb and Cd. Cd was characterized by higher extractibality and mobility whatever the approach. Pb was distinguished of Cd by its high association to Feoxides, lower extractability, lower rate of desorption and then lower mobility. For this environmental scenario, EDTA single scheme at equilibrium could be suggested as the best suited and a simple protocol for determination of the labile pool of Cd and Pb. The pseudo-total concentrations of Pb and Cd are actually below the Vietnamese standard level, contrary to the results obtained by other authors for agricultural soils at other urban sites of Hanoi.展开更多

However, the NO_3^-concentration and its isotope composition of soil samples are unstable, making sample storage critical for preserving the N isotope composition of extracted soil NO_3^-. Nevertheless, studies on the appropriate selection of storage methods after soil sampling are scarce. In this study, we compared two commonly used methods for storing soil samples and investigated the stability of N isotopes of soil NO_3^-. The results demonstrated that no significant changes in the NO_3^-concentration and δ^(15)N value occurred in the samples stored at-18?C. However, the soil NO_3^-concentration markedly increased, and NO_3^-δ^(15)N value significantly changed after air-drying storage. Meanwhile, we also found that NO_3^-and its δ^(15)N were well preserved in the filtered soil extracts after 1 month. In contrast, the NO_3^-concentration gradually decreased and the^(15)N in NO_3^-was gradually enriched in the bactericidal agent-containing soil mixture solution during the storage period. Overall, our results indicated that N isotopes of NO_3^-could be effectively preserved in frozen-stored soil samples or filtered soil extracts. For field investigations conducted in remote areas and continued for a long-time period(and lacking a refrigerant supply), soil extraction/filtration using a CaSO_4-saturated solution may be a superior preparation and storage method for analyzing N isotopes of soil NO_3^-.展开更多
