The results showed that the yield increments of amino acid foliar fertilizer treatments in cucumbers, eggplants and water spinach were 11.57%, 4.43% and 12.41% respectively, and the output-input ratios were 64.52 ∶ 1, 53.31 ∶ 1 and 55.14 ∶ 1 respectively. Amino acid foliar fertilizer can influence the quality of greenhouse vegetables. The total sugar content of the cucumbers, eggplants, and water spinach significantly increased by 12.00%, 22.30%and 12.10% respectively. The vitamin C content increased by 4.76%, 24.80%, and10.90% respectively compared with the control. In conclusion, the spraying of amino acid foliar fertilizer could improve the yield and the nutritive quality of vegetables such as cucumbers, eggplants and water spinach.展开更多

Here, we analyze the distribution characteristics and quantification of elements in the Southwest China Keda mining site, which is one of the most populated sites and enables human health and ecological risk assessments of elemental pollution. The results on modified degree of contamination indicated that the soil and sediment were highly contaminated near Dahu Lake.The health risk of children was almost 2.5 times that of adults in surface water, and 7.1 times in soil, respectively.Moreover, Tl and As were the main health risk contributors in surface water and soil, respectively, and As posed the highest ecological risk both in soil and sediment. These results indicated the potential impact of toxic metal(loid)s on the health of residents and environment. Hence, more scientific attention and proper management need to be paid to this environmental challenge in the future.展开更多

The results showed that the soil pH values of zeolite, lime, red mud and peanut shell biochar increased significantly by 0.511.02, 0.821.29, 0.720.89 and 0.300.35 respectively. The effects of 4 passivators on the fixation of Cd and Zn in soil are lime>red mud>zeolite>peanut shell biochar. The order of effects on the fixation of Pb is red mud>lime>zeolite>peanut shell biochar. The order of the fixation effects of Cu is red mud>lime>peanut shell carbon>zeolite. The contents of Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn in the extractable state of CaCl2 decreased with the increase in the dosage of 4 passivators. Lime and red mud showed good fixation effects on Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn. The contents of Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn in the extractable state of CaCl2 at the low dosage(2.5 g/kg) of lime and red mud decreased by 41%, 84%, 76% and 83% respectively. Soil pH value was negatively correlated with CaCl2-Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn(P<0.01). Lime and red mud had significant fixation effects on Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn in acidic multi-metal contaminated soils at low application dosages.展开更多

The sorption mechanisms of minerals were discussed based on sorption thermodynamics. The results showed that the adsorption of quinclorac on the 3 minerals was included in both rapid stage and slow equilibrium stage. The adsorption kinetics consisted with the pseudo-second-order equation, the particle diffusion equation, and elovich equations, and among them, fitting from the pseudo-second-order was the best. In addition, it could be seen from the nonzero constant C in the particle diffusion equation that the rate of particle diffusion was not a sole factor. The isotherm adsorption-desorption of quinclorac on the 3 clay minerals all fitted Linear and Freundlich equation very well. The adsorption capacities of minerals for quinclorac followed the order of goethite〉montmorillonite〉attapulgite, The desorption of quinclorac presented obvious hysteresis phenomenon on minerals. The study on thermodynamic behavior indicated that the sorption processes of quinclorec onto minerals were spontaneous, and the sorption spontaneity was strengthened with the temperature increasing.展开更多

The results showed that: (1) Eucalyptus plantations were relatively helpful to reduce soil bulk density and enhance the stability of water-stable aggregates;(2) Eucalyptus plantations can improve the content of soil organic matter;(3) Soil pH showed an overall acidi fication trend under forest land conditions in Hainan;total nitrogen and alkali-hydrolyzed nitrogen content of Eucalyptus plantations showed a downward trend with the deepening of soil layer;total phosphorus and available phosphorus content showed a downward trend, while organic matter, total potassium and available K showed an upward trend. (4) The contents of total phosphorus and available phosphorus in the soil of Eucalyptus plantations of different ages did not change significantly, whereas the contents of other nutrients decreased gradually with the increase of soil depth.展开更多
