金沙江河流悬浮物与沉积物的矿物学特征及其表生地球化学意义

为研究金沙江流域表生风化特征,系统采集了金沙江和岷江流域32件河流悬浮物和河床砂样品,对其进行了矿物组成分析。结果表明,不同江段河流悬浮物、沉积物的矿物组成大致相同,以石英、方解石、斜长石和粘土矿物为主,局部有白云石、钾长石和角闪石等;粘土矿物主要有伊利石、绿泥石、高岭石和蒙脱石。河床沉积物中非粘土矿物碎屑(岩屑)含量明显高于悬浮物。伊利石为铁镁质,Kubler指数在轻微变质范围内,主要来源于三叠系碎屑岩和砂板岩。金沙江、岷江的河流悬浮物矿物组成与流域内出露的碎屑岩、砂板岩、火成岩、碳酸盐岩等的分布有较好的对应关系。河流悬浮物和沉积物的矿物组成及伊利石结晶指数特征表明流域内以物理风化为主。     

金沙江河流悬浮物的元素地球化学特征及其地质意义

系统测定了金沙江和岷江16个采样点的河流悬浮物的稀土元素和微量元素含量.结果表明,金沙江悬浮物的稀土元素地球化学特征与世界其他河流基本相同,而(LREE/HREE)N值较低,其主河道悬浮物的(Eu/Eu*)N略高于北美页岩;支流悬浮物的(La/Yb)N和(Eu/Eu*)N差别较大,亦与主河道有较大差别.受流域内矿化带和采矿影响,悬浮物中Cs、Cu、Pb、Bi、Sn、Ti、V、Cu、Cr、Co相对富集.岷江悬浮物的地球化学特征与金沙江主河道相似.综合研究表明,悬浮物的元素地球化学特征主要受控于流域内出露岩性,金沙江支流、通天河(直门达)到树地桥段、攀枝花到水富段的物源有所不同,悬浮物的地球化学特征有所差异.金沙江段是长江中下游重要物质来源,对中下游物源及元素地球化学特征分析也有一定的借鉴价值.     

长江水中悬浮物含量与矿物和化学组成及其地质环境意义

在2003～2007年间,在长江干流的25个水文站及主要支流的13个水文站系统采样,对悬浮物的含量及其矿物与化学组成系统地进行了测定。根据这些数据,对长江悬浮物的矿物和化学组成的时空变化及其地质与环境意义进行了系统研究。 本次所采样品中悬浮物含量平均值为256.5mg/L,在世界各大河中居于中等水平。悬浮物含量呈现大幅度的时空变化,与水流速度、径流量及泥沙供给情况的变化相对应,受河床坡度、降雨量、风化强度、侵蚀情况及人工活动等多种因素的影响。近年来,长江悬浮物含量逐渐下降,与上游的退耕还林和水库建设密切相关。特别是三峡水库工程引起泥沙在库区大量沉积,显著降低河水的悬浮物含量,导致其下游河段堤岸冲刷加剧,洞庭湖、鄱阳湖和长江口的沉积减少。这种变化带来的环境效应巨大,需要慎重评估和应对。 长江水中悬浮物主要由粘土矿物、碎屑硅酸盐矿物和碎屑碳硅酸盐矿物组成,并含有少量重矿物、氢氧化物和有机物。与黄河悬浮物矿物组成的对比研究表明长江流域的化学风化作用明显强于黄河流域,而物理侵蚀作用明显弱于黄河流域。由上游到下游,长江悬浮物中粘土和碎屑硅酸盐矿物逐渐增高,而碎屑碳硅酸盐逐步降低,与中下游地区气候变得湿热,化学风化变强的情况相对应。 与上地壳岩石平均值相比,长江悬浮物的SiO2、CaO、K2O 、Na2O含量较低,而TFe2O3含量较高,反映硅酸盐矿物化学风化过程中部分硅、钾、钠、钙的流失和铁的富集。与全球河流悬浮物和黄河悬浮物相比,长江悬浮物的SiO2、Na2O含量较低,反映长江流域的化学风化作用较强。与长江水系沉积物相比,长江悬浮物的SiO2、Na2O含量较低,而Al2O3、K2O 、MgO、TFe2O3较高,反映悬浮物比较富含粒度较小的粘土与铁质成分。从上游往下游,长江悬浮物中CaO、MgO含量逐渐降低,SiO2 含量逐步升高,与粘土矿物含量增高和碳酸盐含量降低的趋势相对应。 长江悬浮物中Co、Ni、Cu、Zn、Pb、Cd含量均高于上地壳岩石的平均含量,可能由这些元素在风化过程优先为粘土所吸附所引起。在攀枝花、宜宾、九江、大通、南京等站悬浮物中发现的铜、铅、锌的高含量,可能均与相关地段采矿活动有关。2005年7月在富顺和长沙发现Cd的高异常值引人注目。悬浮物中Cu、Pb、Zn、Cd的含量较长江水系沉积物的平均含量高出数倍、乃至数十倍,可能反映近年来流域采矿活动加剧,其对流域环境的长远影响值得关注。 长江悬浮物的稀土总量与全球页岩的平均值相比略显偏高。长江悬浮物的REE分布形式于上地壳基本一致,表明长江流域出露的岩石的化学组成与上地壳岩石平均组成没有明显差别,而且岩石风化过程中稀土元素未出现明显分馏。     

珠江水体悬浮物碳稳定同位素组成与流域土壤侵蚀研究

以珠江流域水体悬浮物为研究对象,对其碳稳定同位素组成(δ13C)及颗粒有机碳(POC)的含量进行了测定和研究。结果表明:河流悬浮物同位素组成与珠江流域植被分布格局、土壤有机质密切相关;珠江悬浮物碳同位素组成主要受C3植被影响,其中,西江悬浮物碳同位素组成表现出较强的C4植被特征。东江水体悬浮物碳同位素组成在洪水季节表现出较强的C4植被特征,其它季节则表现出C3植被特征;北江水体悬浮物碳同位素组成无明显的C4植被特征。东江悬浮物样品POCδ13C值呈逐年上升趋势,与近年来流域内植被破坏和土壤侵蚀加剧相对应,并显示其侵蚀程度超过西江流域。     

三峡水库建设对长江下游颗粒有机碳通量及碳同位素组成的影响

2008年4月至2009年4月,在南通长江干流每周采集一次表层悬浮物样品,共51个,分析了其粒度、颗粒有机碳(POC)、颗粒氮(PN)含量以及有机碳同位素(δ13Corg)组成,研究了下游干流颗粒有机碳组成的季节性变化特征.悬浮物的平均粒径在一年内变化不明显,而POC和PN含量呈现洪季缓慢减小,枯季增加的趋势;δ13C...     

基于泥沙中碳含量的变化表征黄河调水调沙入海泥沙的扩散范围

主要通过黄河口悬浮物中有机碳和无机碳的含量,表征黄河调水调沙入海的泥沙在黄河口外近海的扩散范围。结果表明:黄河口入海前泥沙中的颗粒无机碳(PIC),颗粒有机碳(POC)具有稳定性,分别为(1.75×0.28)%和(0.51×0.08)%;在悬浮物含量约为30 mg/L时,黄河口临近海区悬浮物中的PIC、POC含量分别出现突跃性降低和升高趋势,叶绿素分析表明,POC含量的升高是由于浮游植物对颗粒有机碳贡献的结果,同时正构烷烃轻重比值ΣC₂₀-/ΣC₂₀+和碳优势指数(CPI)值也分别增加和降低;X衍射发现悬浮物浓度低于30 mg/L时,黄河泥沙在悬浮物中所占比例迅速下降,从而造成悬浮物中PIC突跃性下降;因此,黄河口近海悬浮物含量30 mg/L可以被认为是陆源和海源颗粒物对黄河口近海区悬浮物贡献的有效分界线。调水调沙入海的泥沙在黄河口外近海表层主要扩散到河口以南海域,而底层扩散范围主要集中在河口以北和河口以南海域,这些泥沙最终可能停留在莱州湾中部。     

黄河内蒙古段上覆水、悬浮物和底泥重金属特征及生态风险研究

系统地采集黄河内蒙古段上覆水、悬浮物和底泥样品,分析其中重金属元素的含量。采用地质累积指数法和潜在生态危害系数法,研究了黄河干流内蒙古段的上覆水、悬浮物和底泥的重金属沿程分布特征、污染程度和生态风险。分析结果显示:除了As元素,悬浮物中重金属元素含量总体上高于底泥中的含量。地质累积指数法评价结果表明:悬浮物和底泥属于无污染—中度污染,悬浮物总体上比底泥污染严重;潜在生态危害系数法评价结果表明:底泥和悬浮物中重金属的生态危害总体上属轻微状态;因此,生态风险指数法和地质累积指数评价结果基本一致。     

黄河口有机碳的时空输运特征及其影响因素分析

通过2004年4月,2004年9月,2005年9月,2006年4月4个航次,结合2003年8月对河道感潮带的连续同步观测,对低流量下黄河口有机碳的输运特征进行了考察。结果发现:黄河输入至河口的悬浮物中颗粒有机碳(POC)含量约为0.51%,主要以陆源输入为主,几乎不受季节变化影响,由于大量POC含量低的陆源泥沙的稀释作用,浮游植物对总颗粒有机碳的贡献只有在悬浮物含量(TSS)<200mg/L时才能显现出来;黄河口TSS超过455mg/L时,有机碳入海以颗粒有机碳为主;反之,以溶解有机碳为主。黄河口悬浮物在低盐度区沉降作用前后的中值粒径降低,Φ>16μm的悬浮物的沉降作用比Φ<16μm的悬浮物更为剧烈,POC含量随悬浮物粒径的降低而升高,黄河携带的颗粒有机碳80%以上集中在Φ<16μm的TSS中;低流量下,黄河口最大混浊带对POC的过滤效率为65%,混浊带对POC的过滤效应能造成黄河口POC的有效通量被高估;由于受黄河口沉积物向水体解析DOC的影响,在盐度小于10时,DOC几乎不受海水稀释作用的影响,但在盐度大于10的区域DOC与盐度表现出良好的负相关关系,黄河口枯、丰水期淡水端溶解有机碳的有效浓度分别高于实测最高值20%和10%左右,从而造成黄河口DOC有效通量被低估。     

喀斯特高原湖泊生物地球化学过程中的锌同位素特征

采用多接收电感耦合等离子体质谱仪(MC-ICP-MS)对喀斯特高原湖泊红枫湖、阿哈湖水体及其主要支流水体悬浮物和一些生物样品中的锌同位素进行了测定,测试精度小于0.11‰(2SD).结果显示,红枫湖水体与其主要支流水体悬浮物中的δ66Zn变化范围分别为-0.29‰～0.26‰和-0.04‰～0.48‰,阿哈湖水体与其主要支流水体悬浮物中的δ66Zn变化范围分别为-0.18‰～0.27‰和-0.179‰～0.46‰,均表现出支流中的锌同位素组成较重的特点.两湖生物样品中的δ66Zn变化范围较大,为-0.35‰～0.57‰,说明湖泊生态系统中各端员的锌同位素组成存在一定差异.根据同位素组成分析,湖泊主要入湖河流及所携带的陆源物质是阿哈湖泊水体中锌的主要来源,锌同位素是一种较好的物源示踪工具.红枫湖夏季δ66zn与Chla(叶绿素)呈显著的正相关(R=0.97),主要是藻类对锌的有机吸附和吸收过程导致锌同位素组成发生变化.此外,湖泊水体悬浮物中的锌同位素组成均在夏季较轻,表明大气的干湿沉降可能是一个较负的锌同位素源.水体悬浮物中的δ66Zn变化范围小于生物样品中的δ66Zn变化范围,说明由于生物作用过程导致的锌同位素分馏大于非生物过程.     

长江口—东海内陆架悬浮重矿物组成与颗粒特征

沉积物重矿物矿物组成和颗粒大小对揭示沉积物源和水动力分选过程具有重要指示意义。然而,受研究手段的制约,对于长江细粒沉积的重矿物组成和物源、水动力分选之间关系的探究还尚属空白。本研究利用自动定量矿物分析系统(TIMA)对长江口—东海内陆架不同水层悬浮物的重矿物组成和颗粒大小进行了研究,同时,结合电子探针分析对细粒级重矿物自动识别结果进行了验证。研究表明,长江口悬浮物中特征重矿物组合为角闪石—绿帘石—铁质金属矿物,与长江下游沉积物特征重矿物组合一致。长江口悬浮物与长江下游沉积物的重矿物组成具有极好的相关性,指示其来源与长江有关。而长江口外悬浮物中赤/磁铁矿相对富集,可能是强潮作用导致的中等密度重矿物再搬运和扩散的结果。值得关注的是,在舟山群岛附近站位悬浮物样品中发现了铬铁矿的异常富集,推测与海区人类生产活动有关。长江口悬浮重矿物颗粒绝大部分为粗粉砂—极细砂,富集在悬浮物中的较粗粒级(Φ0.5)中,主要由径流携带搬运。不同水层悬浮物中不同类型重矿物的粒径无明显差异,受沉降差异的影响小。     

Silicon isotope compositions of dissolved silicon and suspended matter in the Yangtze River, China

Silicon isotope compositions of main channel samples of the Yangtze River were systematically investigated along with their chemical compositions. The concentration of suspended matter in the Yangtze River tends to decrease from the upper reaches to the lower reaches, corresponding to settling of the sediments in the lakes and reservoirs due to reduction of the velocity of water flow. The silica contents of suspended matter vary from 52.1% to 56.9% and their δ³⁰Si values vary from 0 to −0.7‰, both similar to those of shales. From the upper to lower reaches, the silica contents of suspended matter tend to increase, whilst their δ³⁰Si values tend to decrease. Both trends reflect the increase of clay minerals and decrease of carbonates in suspended matter.The concentrations of dissolved silicon vary from 97 to 121 μmol/L and their δ³⁰Si values vary over a wide range from 0.7 to 3.4‰. From the upper to lower reaches, dissolved silica concentrations tend to decrease and their δ³⁰Si values tend to increase. These trends mainly reflect the change of chemical and isotopic characteristics of the tributaries from the upper to lower reaches. The major factors responsible for these changes may be the high meteoric precipitation and significant silicon absorption by grass (in wetlands) and rice (in paddy fields) in drainage areas of the middle and lower reaches.There is no correlation between δ³⁰Si of dissolved silicon and that of suspended matter. The Δ³⁰Si_Diss-SPM values vary over a wide range of 1.0-3.7‰, indicating that (1) they are out of isotopic equilibrium, (2) dissolved silicon and the associated suspended matter do not belong to one physico-chemical system, and (3) isotopic exchange rate between them is very slow.The δ³⁰Si value of dissolved silicon output from the Yangtze River to the East Sea is estimated to be 3.0‰, much higher than the values reported for the Amazon and Congo rivers. This increases the δ³⁰Si range of dissolved silicon in the world’s rivers from 0.4-1.2%; to 0.4-3.4%.     

Silicon isotopic composition of dissolved silicon and suspended particulate matter in the Yellow River, China, with implications for the global silicon cycle

The silicon isotopic composition of dissolved silicon and suspended particulate matter (SPM) were systematically investigated in water samples from the mainstem of the Yellow River and 4 major tributaries. The SPM content of the Yellow River varied from 1.4 to 38,560 mg/L, averaging 3568 mg/L, and the δ³⁰Si of suspended particulate matter (δ³⁰Si_SPM) varied from 0.3‰ to −0.4‰, averaging −0.02‰. The major factors affecting the SPM content and the δ³⁰Si_SPM values in the Yellow River were inferred to be the mineralogical, chemical and isotopic characteristics of the sediments from the Loess Plateau and a combination of the climate and the flow discharge of the river.The major ions in the Yellow River water were Na⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, HCO₃⁻, SO₄²⁻ and Cl⁻. High salt concentration was observed in samples from the middle and lower reaches, likely reflecting the effects of evaporation and irrigation because the Na⁺, Mg²⁺, SO₄²⁻ and K⁺ concentrations were correlated with the Cl⁻ concentration. The dissolved Si concentration (D_Si) increased downstream, varying from 0.016 to 0.323 mM. The δ³⁰Si of dissolved Si (δ³⁰Si_Diss) varied from 0.4‰ to 2.5‰, averaging 1.28‰. The major processes controlling the D_Si and δ³⁰Si_Diss of the Yellow River are (a) the weathering of silicate rocks, (b) the formation of phytoliths in plants, (c) the evaporation of water from and the addition of meteoric water to the river system, which only affects concentrations, (d) the adsorption and desorption of aqueous monosilicic acid on iron oxide, and (e) the dissolution of phytoliths in soils.The D_Si and δ³⁰Si_Diss values of global rivers vary spatially and temporally in response to changes in climate, chemical weathering intensity and biological activity. The moderately positive δ³⁰Si_Diss values observed in the Yellow River may be attributed to the higher rates of chemical weathering and biological activities that have been observed in this catchment in comparison with those of other previously studied catchments, excluding the Yangtze River. Human activities may also potentially influence chemical weathering and biological activities and affect the D_Si and δ³⁰Si_Diss values of the major rivers of the world. Further river studies should be performed to gain a better understanding of the global Si isotope budget.     

Stable Isotope Composition of Rainfall,Surface Water and Groundwater along the Yellow River

The intention of this work is to consider the stable isotopic compositions of oxygen and deuterium in rainfall, surface water and groundwater along the Yellow River in the North China Plain (NCP). This demonstrated that the δ18O values in groundwater varied from –10.17 to –6.85‰, with mean value of –8.76‰, and that the δD ranged from –68.7 to –58.0‰, with mean value of –63.4‰, respectively. The δ18O values in surface water varied from –8.36 to 1.32‰, with mean value of –6.8‰, and δD ranged from –64.4 to –35.1‰, with mean value of –57.6‰, respectively. Further, The range of Cl- values of groundwater varied from 5.9 to 340.5 mg/L and that values ranged from 30.1 to 81.9 mg/L in surface water samples and Na+ value changed from 27.4 to 321 mg/L in groundwater, while that in surface water varied from 24.8 to 50.5 mg/L. Most of the points fall below the GMWL?, but are close to the LMWL.? Therefore the results indicated that the groundwaters along the Yellow River were influenced by rainfall in heavy events and surface water.     

秋季黄河pCO2控制因素及水-气界面通量

根据2006年11月1~10日,秋季黄河平水期二氧化碳分压(pCO₂)的现场实测数据及相关同步观测资料,对黄河表层水pCO₂的分布及其影响因素进行了研究。结果表明:水体pCO₂在80~166Pa,平均值110Pa,在世界主要河流中属中等偏下水平;空间分布存在较大的不均匀性,中游高于上游和下游。浮游植物的光合作用对pCO₂有一定的影响但强度较弱,即使在叶绿素最高值3.58μg/L的包头站pCO₂仍达到91Pa。黄河水体有机物含量较低且继承了陆源有机物难降解的特性,干流和库区EpCO₂/AOU的比值为0.14和0.20,远低于生物好氧呼吸作用控制水体pCO₂的理论下限0.62,因此,生物好氧呼吸作用对水体pCO₂的贡献不大。悬浮物(TSS)含量为3.77~1308mg/L,溶解无机碳(DIC)含量为3.03~4.14mmol/L,普遍高于世界其它河流且最大值均出现在潼关站;同时水体pCO₂与TSS、PIC、DIC含量具有极好的正相关性。因此黄河流域强烈的机械侵蚀和化学风化作用形成的碳酸盐体系是控制水体pCO₂的主要因素。利用Wanninkhof提出的淡水水-气交换系数的通量模式估算,黄河水域水-气界面CO₂交换速率约为0.229μmol/m2·s,秋季可向大气释放CO₂14.5亿moL,相当于8250km2草原或是112km2森林一年的固碳量。黄河CO₂释放通量与渥太华河相近,但要远小于亚马逊河。     

硫和氧同位素示踪黄河及支流河水硫酸盐来源

为了准确识别河水硫酸盐受自然风化和人为活动影响的过程,做好地表水资源管理,选择黄河小浪底水库以下干流和支流河水为主要研究对象,分期采集河水样品,采用硫酸盐硫和氧同位素,结合水化学组成及潜在硫酸盐来源硫和氧同位素范围,判定黄河及支流河水硫酸盐的来源及混入比例。结果表明:① 研究区黄河河水硫酸盐主要来源于第四纪黄土中易溶硫酸盐,干流河水SO₄2-含量均值为2.23 mmol/L,δ34S_SO4和δ18O_SO4均值分别为+8.9‰和+10.4‰;② 研究区沁河丰水期河水硫酸盐24%来源于大气降水,61%来源于土壤硫酸盐溶解,15%来自于石膏溶解;平水期河水硫酸盐39%来源于大气降水,36%来源于土壤硫酸盐溶解,25%来源于石膏溶解。沁河河水SO₄2-含量均值为2.44 mmol/L,δ34S_SO4和δ18O_SO4均值分别为+9.8‰和+9.7‰;③ 研究区洛河河水硫酸盐受生活污水影响较大,伊河河水硫酸盐受到土壤硫酸盐溶解和化学肥料溶解的共同影响,伊洛河河水SO₄2-含量均值为1.27 mmol/L,δ34S_SO4和δ18O_SO4均值分别为+10.4‰和+6.5‰。蒸发盐类矿物溶解以及土壤硫酸盐溶解等自然风化过程是控制区域河水硫酸盐来源的重要过程,人为活动对伊洛河河水硫酸盐的贡献不容忽视。     

化隆—循化盆地不同类型含水层组高氟地下水的分布及形成过程

天然成因的高氟地下水是世界范围内备受关注的环境问题和饮用水安全问题。前人对高氟地下水的形成过程已开展了大量研究,但是对于高原盆地复杂水文地质条件下不同类型含水层组(第四系松散层含水层、基岩裂隙或岩溶含水层以及新生代古近纪以来的碎屑岩含水层)高氟地下水的分布和形成过程尚不明确。本文以化隆—循化盆地为研究区,通过采集、测试研究区内的各类地下水样品,分析研究区内不同类型含水层中地下水的化学特征及同位素特征。结果表明,高氟地下水(1.007.73 mg/L)主要分布在沿黄河的河谷区域和巴燕低山丘陵区域的泉水和潜水中以及深部的承压水中,在垂向上高氟地下水无明显分布规律。接受黄河水入渗补给的河谷潜水中氟离子浓度较低,补给黄河的河谷潜水中氟离子浓度较高。贫钙富钠的弱碱性苏打型水有利于地下水中氟的富集。泉水和潜水中氟主要来源于萤石的溶解,而承压水中氟除了来源于萤石外,还来源于其他含氟矿物。对于潜水和第四系松散层泉水,蒸发浓缩作用促进了地下水中氟的富集。另外,阴离子竞争吸附作用、阳离子交换吸附作用是泉水(第四系松散层泉水和基岩裂隙泉水)和潜水中氟元素富集的主要原因,而承压水中氟离子浓度受竞争吸附作用影响较大,阳离子交换吸附作用影响较小。研究成果可为化隆—循化盆地低氟地下水的勘查和开发提供科学依据。     

The distribution and ecological risks of antibiotics in surface water in key cities along the lower reaches of the Yellow River: A case study of Kaifeng City,China

A large number of antibiotics have been discharged into rivers by human activities, posing a threat to aquatic ecosystems. The surface water of the Yellow River Basin also suffers antibiotic pollution, which hinders the improvement in the aquatic ecological environment. This study investigated and analyzed the characteristics and assessed the ecological risks of antibiotic pollution in surface water bodies such as canals, rivers and fish ponds in Kaifeng, Henan Province, which is a key city along the lower reaches of the Yellow River. The test results are as follows. A total of 15 types of antibiotics were detected in the surface water. They had a total antibiotic concentration of 12.2–249.9 μg/L, of which tetracyclines (TCs) and quinolones accounted for the highest percentages. Six types of quinolones had detection rates of up to 100%, and doxycycline (DC) and oxytetracycline (OTC) had average concentrations of 29.52 μg/L¹ and 13.71 μg/L, respectively. The major canals with water diverted from the Yellow River had total concentrations of quinolones and TCs of 22. 0 μg/L and 14.9 μg/L, respectively, which were higher than those in previous studies. This phenomenon may be related to the decrease in the water flow of the Yellow River during the dry season and the increase in the antibiotic consumption of residents in the context of the Covid-19 outbreak. The upper reaches of the Huiji River in the Xiangfu District had higher antibiotic content than other districts in Kaifeng. Specifically, TCs accounted for 72.38%–91.84% of all antibiotics, and the DC and OTC concentrations were significantly higher than other antibiotics in the upper reaches. As indicated by the ecological risk assessment results, TCs had the highest ecological risks to green algae. Among them, DC had medium-high risks; TC, OTC, and chlortetracycline (CTC) had medium-high risks; trimethoprim (TMP) and lomefloxacin (LOM) had low risks; other TC antibiotics had no risk. Compared with green algae, most antibiotics showed higher ecological risks to daphnia and lower ecological risks to fish. DC and OTC dominate antibiotic pollutants in the surface water in Kaifeng City, and especially in Xiangfu District, where DC and OTC have medium-high risks. The TCs in the major Yellow River showed medium risks to both green algae and daphnia. It can be speculated that the antibiotic pollution in the Yellow River might pose a certain threat to the ecological security of water in Kaifeng City.©2022 China Geology Editorial Office.
