Hydraulic properties of the crystalline basement 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1
Hydraulic tests in boreholes, up to 4.5 km deep, drilled into continental crystalline basement revealed hydraulic conductivity
(K) values that range over nine log-units from 10−13−10−4 m s−1. However, K values for fractured basement to about 1 km depth are typically restricted to the range from 10−8 to 10−6 m s−1. New data from an extended injection test at the KTB research site (part of the Continental Deep Drilling Program in Germany)
at 4 km depth provide K=5 10−8 m s−1. The summarized K-data show a very strong dependence on lithology and on the local deformation history of a particular area. In highly fractured
regions, granite tends to be more pervious than gneiss. The fracture porosity is generally saturated with Na–Cl or Ca–Na–Cl
type waters with salinities ranging from <1 to >100 g L−1. The basement permeability is well within the conditions for advective fluid and heat transport. Consequently, fluid pressure
is hydrostatic and a Darcy flow mechanism is possible to a great depth. Topography-related hydraulic gradients in moderately
conductive basement may result in characteristic advective flow rates of up to 100 L a−1 m−2 and lead to significant advective heat and solute transfer in the upper brittle crust.

Heat flow has been determined by combining temperature measurements in 7 boreholes with thermal conductivity measurements in the Upper Vindhyan sedimentary rocks of Shivpuri area, central India. The boreholes are distributed at 5 sites within an area of 15 × 10 km2; their depths range from 174 to 268 m. Geothermal gradients estimated from borehole temperature profiles vary from 8.0–12.7 mK m−1 in the sandstone-rich formations to 25.5–27.5 mK m−1 in the shale-rich formations, consistent with the contrast in thermal conductivities of the two rock types. Heat flow in the area ranges between 45 and 61 mW m−2, with a mean of 52±6 mW m−2. The heat flow values are similar to the >50 mW m−2 heat flow observed in other parts of the northern Indian shield. The heat flow determinations represent the steady-state heat flow because, the thermal transients associated with the initial rifting, convergence and sedimentation in the basin as well as the more recent Deccan volcanism that affected the region to the south of the basin would have decayed, and therefore, the heat flow is in equilibrium with the radiogenic heat production of the crust and the heat flow from the mantle. The present study reports the heat flow measurements from the western part of the Vindhyan basin and provides heat flow information for the Bundhelkhand craton for the first time. Radioelement (Th, U and K) abundances have been measured both in the sedimentary rocks exposed in the area as well as in the underlying basement granite-gneiss of Bundelkhand massif exposed in the adjacent area. Radioactive heat production, estimated from those abundances, indicate mean values of 0.3 μW m−3 for sandstone with inter-bands of shale and siltstone, 0.25 μW m−3 for sandstone with inter-bands siltstone, 0.6 μW m−3 for quartzose sandstone, and 2.7 μW m−3 for the basement granitoids. With a total sedimentary thickness not exceeding a few hundred metres in the area, the heat production of the sedimentary cover would be insignificant. The radioactive heat contribution from the basement granitoids in the upper crust is expected to be large, and together with the heat flow component from the mantle, would control the crustal thermal structure in the region. 相似文献

Hydrochemical characteristics of groundwater in the Zhangye Basin, Northwestern China 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The Zhangye Basin, located in arid northwest China, is an important agricultural and industrial center. In recent years rapid
development has created an increased demand for water, which is increasingly being fulfilled by groundwater abstraction. Detailed
knowledge of the geochemical evolution of groundwater and water quality can enhance understanding of the hydrochemical system,
promoting sustainable development and effective management of groundwater resources. To this end, a hydrochemical investigation
was conducted in the Zhangye Basin. Types of shallow groundwater in the Zhangye Basin were found to be HCO3
−, HCO3
−–SO4
2−, SO4
2−–HCO3
−, SO4
2−–Cl−, Cl−–SO4
2− and Cl− . The deep aquifer groundwater type was found to be HCO3−–SO42− throughout the entire area. Ionic ratio and saturation index calculations suggest that silicate rock weathering and evaporation
deposition are the main processes that determine the ionic composition in the study area. The suitability of the groundwater
for irrigation was assessed based on the US Salinity Laboratory salinity classification and the Wilcox diagram. In the study
area, the compositions of the stable isotopes δ18O and δD in groundwater samples were found to range from −4.00 to −9.28‰ and from −34.0 to −65.0‰, respectively. These values
indicate that precipitation is the main recharge source for the groundwater system; some local values indicate high levels
of evaporation. Tritium analysis was used to estimate the ages of the different groundwaters; the tritium values of the groundwater
samples varied from 3.13 to 36.62 TU. The age of the groundwater at depths of less than 30 m is about 5–10 years. The age
of the groundwater at depths of 30–50 m is about 10–23 years. The age of the groundwater at depths of 50–100 m is about 12–29 years.
For groundwater samples at depths of greater than 100 m, the renewal time is about 40 years. 相似文献

The sediment-hosted stratiform Cu–Co mineralization of the Luiswishi and Kamoto deposits in the Katangan Copperbelt is hosted
by the Neoproterozoic Mines Subgroup. Two main hypogene Cu–Co sulfide mineralization stages and associated gangue minerals
(dolomite and quartz) are distinguished. The first is an early diagenetic, typical stratiform mineralization with fine-grained
minerals, whereas the second is a multistage syn-orogenic stratiform to stratabound mineralization with coarse-grained minerals.
For both stages, the main hypogene Cu–Co sulfide minerals are chalcopyrite, bornite, carrollite, and chalcocite. These minerals
are in many places replaced by supergene sulfides (e.g., digenite and covellite), especially near the surface, and are completely
oxidized in the weathered superficial zone and in surface outcrops, with malachite, heterogenite, chrysocolla, and azurite
as the main oxidation products. The hypogene sulfides of the first Cu–Co stage display δ34S values (−10.3‰ to +3.1‰ Vienna Canyon Diablo Troilite (V-CDT)), which partly overlap with the δ34S signature of framboidal pyrites (−28.7‰ to 4.2‰ V-CDT) and have ∆34SSO4-Sulfides in the range of 14.4‰ to 27.8‰. This fractionation is consistent with bacterial sulfate reduction (BSR). The hypogene sulfides
of the second Cu–Co stage display δ34S signatures that are either similar (−13.1‰ to +5.2‰ V-CDT) to the δ34S values of the sulfides of the first Cu–Co stage or comparable (+18.6‰ to +21.0‰ V-CDT) to the δ34S of Neoproterozoic seawater. This indicates that the sulfides of the second stage obtained their sulfur by both remobilization
from early diagenetic sulfides and from thermochemical sulfate reduction (TSR). The carbon (−9.9‰ to −1.4‰ Vienna Pee Dee
Belemnite (V-PDB)) and oxygen (−14.3‰ to −7.7‰ V-PDB) isotope signatures of dolomites associated with the first Cu–Co stage
are in agreement with the interpretation that these dolomites are by-products of BSR. The carbon (−8.6‰ to +0.3‰ V-PDB) and
oxygen (−24.0‰ to −10.3‰ V-PDB) isotope signatures of dolomites associated with the second Cu–Co stage are mostly similar
to the δ13C (−7.1‰ to +1.3‰ V-PDB) and δ18O (−14.5‰ to −7.2‰ V-PDB) of the host rock and of the dolomites of the first Cu–Co stage. This indicates that the dolomites
of the second Cu–Co stage precipitated from a high-temperature, host rock-buffered fluid, possibly under the influence of
TSR. The dolomites associated with the first Cu–Co stage are characterized by significantly radiogenic Sr isotope signatures
(0.70987 to 0.73576) that show a good correspondence with the Sr isotope signatures of the granitic basement rocks at an age
of ca. 816 Ma. This indicates that the mineralizing fluid of the first Cu–Co stage has most likely leached radiogenic Sr and
Cu–Co metals by interaction with the underlying basement rocks and/or with arenitic sedimentary rocks derived from such a
basement. In contrast, the Sr isotope signatures (0.70883 to 0.71215) of the dolomites associated with the second stage show
a good correspondence with the 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.70723 to 0.70927) of poorly mineralized/barren host rocks at ca. 590 Ma. This indicates that the fluid of the
second Cu–Co stage was likely a remobilizing fluid that significantly interacted with the country rocks and possibly did not
mobilize additional metals from the basement rocks. 相似文献

Boron recycling in the continental crust of the central Andes from the Palaeozoic to Mesozoic, NW Argentina 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
Simone Kasemann Jörg Erzinger Gerhard Franz 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》2000,140(3):328-343
Whole-rock chemical composition and 11B/10B isotope ratios in tourmaline was investigated to study the geochemical recycling of boron during the evolution of the Andean
basement from the Palaeozoic to Mesozoic. In the basement (Cambrian to Ordovician high-grade paragneisses, migmatites and
orthogneisses, the Eocambrian Puncoviscana Formation, and Paleozoic-Mesozoic granitoid igneous rocks) whole-rock B contents
are generally below 100 ppm, but B contents of ˜1 wt% are found in cogenetic aplite and pegmatite dikes and in tourmaline–quartz
rocks. In the metasedimentary rocks, no systematic variation in B content because of metamorphic grade and no correlation
of B with other incompatible elements are apparent. Tourmalines from the high-grade metamorphic basement yield δ11B values ranging from −11.2 to −6.8‰ and isotope fractionation during migmatisation was small. Metamorphic tourmalines from
the Puncoviscana Formation have δ11B values between −6.3 and −5.8‰. The calculated (corrected for fractionation) δ11B values of −6 to −2‰ for the sedimentary protolith of the metamorphic basement indicate a continental B source with subordinate
marine input. Tourmalines from Palaeozoic and Mesozoic granitoids display an identical range of δ11B values from −12 to −5.3‰ and indicate a similarly homogeneous B source throughout time. Tourmalines from pegmatites and
tourmaline–quartz rocks record the average δ11B values of the parental granitic magma. We assume that B in the Palaeozoic and Mesozoic granitoids is derived from the local
metamorphic basement supporting the hypothesis that recycling of the lower Palaeozoic crust is the dominant process in granitic
magma formation from Palaeozoic to Mesozoic.

The heat capacity at constant pressure, C
p, of chlorapatite [Ca5(PO4)3Cl – ClAp], and fluorapatite [Ca5(PO4)3F – FAp], as well as of 12 compositions along the chlorapatite–fluorapatite join have been measured using relaxation calorimetry
[heat capacity option of the physical properties measurement system (PPMS)] and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in
the temperature range 5–764 K. The chlor-fluorapatites were synthesized at 1,375–1,220°C from Ca3(PO4)2 using the CaF2–CaCl2 flux method. Most of the chlor-fluorapatite compositions could be measured directly as single crystals using the PPMS such
that they were attached to the sample platform of the calorimeter by a crystal face. However, the crystals were too small
for the crystal face to be polished. In such cases, where the sample coupling was not optimal, an empirical procedure was
developed to smoothly connect the PPMS to the DSC heat capacities around ambient T. The heat capacity of the end-members above 298 K can be represented by the polynomials: C

−3 (units, J mol−1 K−1). Their standard third-law entropy, derived from the low-temperature heat capacity measurements, is S° = 400.6 ± 1.6 J mol−1 K−1 for chlorapatite and S° = 383.2 ± 1.5 J mol−1 K−1 for fluorapatite. Positive excess heat capacities of mixing, ΔC
pex, occur in the chlorapatite–fluorapatite solid solution around 80 K (and to a lesser degree at 200 K) and are asymmetrically
distributed over the join reaching a maximum of 1.3 ± 0.3 J mol−1 K−1 for F-rich compositions. They are significant at these conditions exceeding the 2σ-uncertainty of the data. The excess entropy of mixing, ΔS
ex, at 298 K reaches positive values of 3–4 J mol−1 K−1 in the F-rich portion of the binary, is, however, not significantly different from zero across the join within its 2σ-uncertainty. 相似文献

Geochemical and statistical approach to evaluate background concentrations of Cd,Cu, Pb and Zn (case study: Eastern Poland) 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

An attempt was made to evaluate background concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn by means of geochemical and statistical approach.
As many as 753 samples taken from 51 profiles located in Eastern Poland were analysed. For the estimation of geochemical background
values, direct geochemical methods and a statistical analysis for the whole population of samples were applied. Average values
of heavy metal concentration in loess sediments (bedrock) as well as in profiles not affected by human activity were measured.
The iterative 2σ technique and calculated distribution function were chosen as statistical methods. The resulting values (background
concentrations range) were as follows: Cd 0.5–0.9 mg kg−1, Cu 5–16 mg kg−1, Pb 12–26 mg kg−1 and Zn 31–47 mg kg−1. All the methods applied gave similar results. The highest deviation of the background was noted for Cu and the lowest for
Zn. The lowest values of background were obtained for loess sediments and the highest in the case of the multiple 2σ method. 相似文献

210Pb geochronologies of Cd, Cu, Hg, and Pb fluxes were obtained from the intertidal mudflat sediments of the coastal lagoons
Chiricahueto, Estero de Urías, and Ohuira in the Mexican Pacific. The Cu and Hg sediment concentrations at the three lagoons
fell within the ranges of 6–76 μg g−1 and 0.1 to 592 ng g−1, respectively; Chiricahueto and Estero de Urías sediments had comparable Cd and Pb concentrations within the ranges of 0.2–2.1 μg
g−1 and 10–67 μg g−1, respectively; whereas in Ohuira lagoon, Cd concentrations were lower (0.1–0.5 μg g−1) and Pb concentrations were higher (115–180 μg g−1) than in the other lagoons. The metal fluxes (μg cm−2 y−1) for the three lagoons fell within the ranges of 0.02–0.15 for Cd, 0.7–6.0 for Cu, 0.001–0.045 for Hg, and 0.7–20 for Pb.
The Hg pollution in Estero de Urías was attributed to the exhausts of the thermoelectric plant of Mazatlan and the metal enrichment
in Chiricahueto and Ohuira was related to the agrochemical wastes from the croplands surrounding these lagoons. 相似文献

Nitrate contamination of groundwater in an agroecosystem in Zhangye Oasis,Northwest China 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3
In order to assess the extent of groundwater contamination by nitrate (NO3
−–N) and to provide information about the deterioration of the groundwater quality in Zhangye Oasis, Northwest China, a study
was conducted in this area. The mean value of NO3
−–N concentrations in groundwater samples was 10.66 ± 0.19 mg l−1. NO3
−–N concentrations exceeding 10 mg l−1 (the threshold for drinking water set by the World Health Organization) were found in 32.4% of 71 wells, and were 13, 33.3,
52.4 and 50.0% in the groundwater samples from drinking wells, irrigation wells, hand-pumping wells and groundwater table
observation wells, respectively. The result showed that the groundwater samples that had NO3
−–N concentrations exceeding the threshold for drinking water were mostly collected from a depth of less than 20 m. Groundwater
NO3
−–N concentrations in areas used for the cultivation of vegetables, seed maize and intercropped maize were significantly higher
than those in urban or paddy areas. NO3
−–N contamination of groundwater in areas with sandy soil was more severe than in those with loam soil. 相似文献

Hydrochemical characteristics and quality assessment of shallow groundwater in a coastal area of Southwest Bangladesh 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1
In this study, the hydrochemical characteristics of shallow groundwater in a coastal region (Khulna) of southwest Bangladesh
have been evaluated based on different indices for drinking and irrigation uses. Water samples were collected from 26 boreholes
and analyzed for major cations and anions. Other physico-chemical parameters like pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and total
dissolved solids were also measured. Most groundwater is slightly alkaline and largely varies in chemical composition, e.g.
EC ranges from 962 to 9,370 μs/cm. The abundance of the major ions is as follows: Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+ = Cl− > HCO3
− > SO4
2− > NO3
−. Interpretation of analytical data shows two major hydrochemical facies (Na+–K+–Cl−–SO4
2− and Na+–K+–HCO3
−) in the study area. Salinity, total hardness, and sodium percentage (Na%) indicate that most of the groundwater samples are
not suitable for irrigation as well as for domestic purposes and far from drinking water standard. Results suggest that the
brackish nature in most of the groundwaters is due to the seawater influence and hydrogeochemical processes. 相似文献

The emission and excitation spectra of yellow luminescence due to S2
− in scapolites (#1 from Canada and #2 from an unknown locality) were observed at 300, 80 and 10 K. Emission and excitation
bands at 10 K showed vibronic structures with a series of maxima spaced 15–30 and 5–9 nm, respectively. The relative efficiency
of yellow luminescence from scapolite #2 was increased up to 117 times by heat treatment at 1,000°C for 2 h in air. The enhancement
of yellow luminescence by heat treatment was ascribed to the alteration of SO3

Tourmaline is widespread in metapelites and pegmatites from the Neoproterozoic Damara Belt, which form the basement and potential
source rocks of the Cretaceous Erongo granite. This study traces the B-isotope variations in tourmalines from the basement,
from the Erongo granite and from its hydrothermal stage. Tourmalines from the basement are alkali-deficient schorl-dravites,
with B-isotope ratios typical for continental crust (δ11B average −8.4‰ ± 1.4, n = 11; one sample at −13‰, n = 2). Virtually all tourmaline in the Erongo granite occurs in distinctive tourmaline-quartz orbicules. This “main-stage”
tourmaline is alkali-deficient schorl (20–30% X-site vacancy, Fe/(Fe + Mg) 0.8–1), with uniform B-isotope compositions (δ11B −8.7‰ ± 1.5, n = 49) that are indistinguishable from the basement average, suggesting that boron was derived from anatexis of the local
basement rocks with no significant shift in isotopic composition. Secondary, hydrothermal tourmaline in the granite has a
bimodal B-isotope distribution with one peak at about −9‰, like the main-stage tourmaline, and a second at −2‰. We propose
that the tourmaline-rich orbicules formed late in the crystallization history from an immiscible Na–B–Fe-rich hydrous melt.
The massive precipitation of orbicular tourmaline nearly exhausted the melt in boron and the shift of δ11B to −2‰ in secondary tourmaline can be explained by Rayleigh fractionation after about 90% B-depletion in the residual fluid.

Horizontal, vertical and temporal distribution of a cyclonic (counterclockwise) eddy, where biological productivity is high,
downstream of the Tsushima Islands in the eastern channel of the Tsushima Straits in November 2007 was revealed using conductivity–temperature–depth
and acoustic Doppler current profiler data. The eddy had a horizontal scale of approximately 40–60 km, and the accompanying
baroclinic current was more than 15 cm s−1 at the edge of the eddy. The island-induced cyclonic eddy moved east-northeastward at about 10 km day−1 (∼10 cm s−1) along the Tsushima Warm Current and was intensified by the barotropic instability in the current shear. The cyclonic eddy
with high surface chlorophyll a concentrations intensified in the vicinity of the Tsushima Islands and was advected by the Tsushima Warm Current towards
the southwestern Japan Sea. 相似文献

The trap efficiency of a catcher in wind erosion measurements plays a significant role, and in many cases suspension trap
efficiencies at high wind velocities are still unknown. The sediment trap efficiency generally changes with particles size
and with wind speed. In this study, the efficiency of Vaseline Slide (VS) and Modified Wilson and Cooke (MWAC) catchers were
determined with different sand particle sizes (<50, <75, 50–75, 200–400, and 400–500 μm) at a fixed wind speed (13.3 ms−1) and with different soil textures at different wind velocities (10.3, 12.3, and 14.3 ms−1) in the wind tunnel of the International Center for Eremology (ICE), Ghent University, Belgium. The traps were placed at
different heights (4, 6.5, 13, 20, 120, and 192 cm for VS and 1.5, 3, 5, 8, 11, and 30 cm for MWAC) to catch saltating and
suspended sediments in a 12-m long, 1.2-m wide and 3.2-m high working section of the wind tunnel. In the sand particle experiments,
the efficiency of the VS catcher was 92% for particles smaller than 50 μm and decreased with increasing particles size, falling
to 2.2% for 400–500 μm particle size at 13.4 ms−1. However, the MWAC’s efficiency was 0% for particles smaller than 50 μm and increased with increasing particle size to 69.5%
at 400–500 μm. In the experiments with different soil textures, the efficiency of each catcher significantly changed with
soil and with wind speed. It also considerably varied with the catchers: for instance, for sand (S), the MWAC efficiency was
very high (67.4, 113.4, and 90.5% at 10.3, 12.3, and 14.4 ms−1, respectively) while the efficiency of VS was relatively very low (5.2, 4.4, and 1.9% at 10.3, 12.3, and 14.4 ms−1, respectively). Results indicated that the efficiency depends critically on the particle size, type of catcher, and wind
speed, and these could be helpful to increase the robustness of wind erosion measurements. 相似文献

An unusual phytoplankton bloom dominated by unidentified green coloured spherical algal cells (∼5μm diameter) and dinoflagellates
(Heterocapsa, Scripsiella and Gymnodinium) was encountered along the coast of Goa, India during 27 and 29 January, 2005. Pigment analysis was carried out using both
fluorometric and HPLC methods. Seawater samples collected from various depths within the intense bloom area showed high concentrations
of Chl a (up to 106 mg m − 3) associated with low bacterial production (0.31 to 0.52 mg C m − 3 h − 1) and mesozooplankton biomass (0.03 ml m − 3). Pigment analyses of the seawater samples were done using HPLC detected marker pigments corresponding to prasinophytes,
dinoflagellates and diatoms. Chlorophyll b (36–56%) followed by peridinin (15–30%), prasinoxanthin (11–17%) and fucoxanthin (7–15%) were the major diagnostic pigments
while pigments of cryptophytes and cyanobacteria including alloxanthin and zeaxanthin formed <10%. Although microscopic analysis
indicated a decline in the bloom, pheaophytin concentrations in the water column measured by both techniques were very low,
presumably due to fast recycling and/or settling rate. The unique composition of the bloom and its probable causes are discussed
in this paper. 相似文献

Distribution and enrichment of trace metals in marine sediments of Bay of Bengal,off Ennore,south-east coast of India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In order to avoid the pollution of trace metals in marine environment, it is necessary to establish the data and understand
the mechanisms influencing the distribution of trace metals in marine environment. The concentration of heavy metals (Fe,
Mn, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, Co and Cd) were studied in sediments of Ennore shelf, to understand the metal contamination due to
heavily industrialized area of Ennore, south-east coast of India. Concentration of metals shows significant variability and
range from 1.7 to 3.7% for Fe, 284–460 μg g−1 for Mn, 148.6–243.2 μg g−1 for Cr, 385–657 μg g−1 for Cu, 19.8–53.4 μg g−1 for Ni, 5.8–11.8 μg g−1 for Co, 24.9–40 μg g−1 for Pb, 71.3–201 μg g−1 for Zn and 4.6–7.5 μg g−1 for Cd. For various metals the contamination factor (CF) and geoaccumulation index (I
geo) has been calculated to assess the degree of pollution in sediments. The geoaccumulation index shows that Cd, Cr and Cu moderately
to extremely pollute the sediments. This study shows that the major sources of metal contamination in the Ennore shelf are
land-based anthropogenic ones, such as discharge of industrial wastewater, municipal sewage and run-off through the Ennore
estuary. The intermetallic relationship revealed the identical behavior of metals during its transport in the marine environment. 相似文献

Soil carbon sequestration plays an essential role in mitigating CO2 increases and the global greenhouse effect. This paper calculates soil organic carbon (SOC) storage changes during the course
of industrialization and urbanization in Yangtze Delta region, China, based on the data of the second national soil survey
(1982–1985) and the regional geochemical survey (2002–2005), with the help of remote sensing images acquired in periods of
1980, 2000, 2005. The results show that soils in the top 0–20 and 0–100 cm depth in this region demonstrate the carbon sink
effect from the early 1980s to the early 2000s. The SOC storage in 0–20 cm depth has resulted in increase from 213.70 to 238.65 Tg,
which corresponds to the SOC density increase from 2.94 ± 1.08 to 3.28 ± 0.92 kg m−2, and mean carbon sequestration storage and rate are 1.25 Tg a−1, 17.14 g m−2 a−1, respectively. The SOC storage in 0–100 cm depth has resulted in increase from 690.26 to 792.65 Tg, which corresponds to
the SOC density increase from 9.48 ± 4.22 to 10.89 ± 3.42 kg m−2, and mean carbon sequestration storage and rate are 5.12 Tg a−1, 70.32 g m−2 a−1, respectively. Urban area in Yangtze Delta region, China, increased more than 3,000 km2 and the urban growth patterns circled the central city region in the past 20 years. The SOC densities in 0–20 cm depth decrease
gradually along urban–suburban–countryside and the urban topsoil is slightly enriched with SOC. Compared to the data of the
second national soil survey in the early 1980s, the mean SOC density in urban area increased by 0.76 kg m2, or up 25.85% in the past 20 years. With the characteristics of SOC storage changes offered, land-use changes, farming system
transition and ecological city construction are mainly attributed to SOC storage increases. Because of lower SOC content in
this region, it is assumed that the carbon sink effect will go on in the future through improved soil management. 相似文献

Hydrogeochemical processes in the groundwater environment of Heihe River Basin,northwest China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The Heihe River Basin is a typical arid inland river basin for examining stress on groundwater resources in northwest China.
The basin is composed of large volumes of unconsolidated Quaternary sediments of widely differing grain size, and during the
past half century, rapid socio-economic development has created an increased demand for groundwater resources. Understanding
the hydrogeochemical processes of groundwater and water quality is important for sustainable development and effective management
of groundwater resources in the Heihe River basin. To this end, a total of 30 representative groundwater samples were collected
from different wells to monitor the water chemistry of various ions and its quality for irrigation. Chemical analysis shows
that water presents a large spatial variability of chemical facies (SO4
2−–HCO3−, SO4
2−–Cl−, and Cl−–SO4
2−) as groundwater flow from recharge area to discharge area. The ionic ratio indicates positive correlation between the flowing
pairs of parameters: Cl− and Na+(r = 0.95), SO4
2− and Na+ (r = 0.84), HCO3
− and Mg2+(r = 0.86), and SO4
2− and Ca2+ (r = 0.91). Dissolution of minerals, such as halite, gypsum, dolomite, silicate, and Mirabilite (Na2SO4·10H2O) in the sediments results in the Cl−, SO4
2−, HCO3
−, Na+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ content in the groundwater. Other reactions, such as evaporation, ion exchange, and deposition also influence the water composition.
The suitability of the groundwater for irrigation was assessed based on the US Salinity Laboratory salinity classification
and the Wilcox diagram. The results show that most of the groundwater samples are suitable for irrigation uses barring a few
locations in the dessert region in the northern sub-basin. 相似文献

Excessive arsenic concentrations above the Argentinean and WHO guidelines for drinking water (10 μg L−1) affects shallow aquifers of the southern Pampean Plain (Argentina) hosted in the Pampean and the Post Pampean formations
(loess and reworked loess; Plio-Pleistocene–Holocene). Health problems related to high As concentrations in drinking waters
are known as Endemic Regional Chronic Hydroarsenicism. Hydrochemistry of shallow groundwaters and soil geochemistry were investigated
aiming to (1) understand the partition of As in the solid phase and its relationship with unacceptable As concentrations in
waters, (2) identify the provision source of As to groundwaters. Only 5% of the samples had As concentrations <10 μg L−1; in 27% As concentrations ranged from 10 to 50 μg L−1 and in 58% it reached 60–500 μg L−1. The coarse fraction (50–2,000 μm) hosts about 27% of the total As in the solid phase, being positively correlated to Ba
(p < 0.01; r
2 = 0.93). About 70% is included in the <2 μm fraction and had positive correlations of As–Fe (p < 0.05; r
2 = 0.85) and As–Cr (p < 0.05; r
2 = 0.68). Soils and sediment sand fractions of vadose zones are the primary sources of As in shallow groundwater while adsorption–desorption
processes, codisolution–coprecipitation, and evaporation during the dry seasons raise As concentrations in waters exceeding
the guideline value for drinking water. 相似文献
