The distribution of native and labelled carbon between soil particle size fractions isolated from long-term incubation experiments 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Four soils with 6, 12, 23 and 46% clay were fractionated according to particle size after incubation for 5–6 years with 14C labelled straw, hemicellulose or glucose: 6–23% of the 14C was still present and the amount increased with increasing content of fine particles. clay fractions contained 66–84% of the 14C and the silt fractions accounted for 4–19%. <2% was found in the sand fractions and 4–9% was water soluble. The distribution of the native C was: clay, 46–68%; silt, 20–31%; sand, 2–7%. The clay fractions had higher relative proportions of 14C than of native C, the reverse being true for the silt fractions. This distribution pattern was not directly related to soil clay content or to kind of organic amendment. The C enrichment factor of clay and silt fractions (per cent C in fraction/per cent C in whole soil) increased with decreasing fraction size for both native and 14C. However, clay enrichment factors were higher for 14C than for native C, whereas silt enrichment factors were lower. A soil (9% clay) that had been incubated in the field for 18 years with 14C labelled straw was also analysed. Labelled C content at sampling was 9% of the initial value. In contrast to the other soils the distribution of labelled and native C was similar in the clay and silt fractions, which contained 55% and 33% of the whole soil C, respectively. The results indicate that clay-bound organic matter may be important in mediumterm organic matter turnover, whereas silt-bound organic matter may participate in longer-term organic matter cycling. 相似文献

DECOMPOSITION OF SOIL POLYSACCHARIDE 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Polysaccharide material was isolated by absorption on charcoal from the acidified, non-humic fraction extracted by alkali from three soils. The polysaccharides were used as substrates in soil incubation, perfusion, and suspension experiments. Concordant results were obtained with freely drained Countess-wells and Insch Association soils derived from acidic and basic igneous parent materials respectively. Polysaccharide material added to soil at low concentration (I per cent) was apparently totally decomposed after 8 weeks when the amounts of polysaccharide in control and amended soils were statistically indistinguishable. At higher concentrations (2-3 per cent) a significant difference in reducing sugar, equivalent to about 30 per cent of the substrate, remained after 32 weeks. Partial neutralization of the polysaccharide material with calcium hydroxide increased the rate of decomposition in Countesswells Association soil but had an opposite, smaller effect in Insch Association soil. Soil polysaccharide material was decomposed slightly faster in perfusion and suspension experiments than in moist soil. Only 20 per cent of the carbohydrate in the unfractionated alkali–soluble organic matter of soil was decomposed during incubation in soil for up to 133 weeks. There was usually little change in the carbohydrate content of soil incubated alone. The soil microbial population showed a marked increase in response to added polysaccharide material but only slight qualitative changes were detected. It is concluded that the persistence of naturally occurring polysaccharide in soil is related to inaccessibility caused by chemical combination, complexing or insolubility but not to a biologically-stable molecular structure. 相似文献

化肥对黑土不同粒级碳水化合物的影响 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1
本文采集公主岭市长期定位监测基地不施肥和施用不同化肥的黑土,通过超声波分散-离心分离得到细黏粒(<0.2μm)、粗黏粒(0.2～2μm)、粉粒(2～53μm)、细砂粒(53～250μm)、粗砂粒(250～2000μm)5个颗粒级别,分析全土及不同粒级中土壤碳水化合物并进行含量与分布的比较。结果表明,黑土中不同粒级碳水化合物库的性质差异显著,碳水化合物多集中在粉+黏粒中;长期施用化肥后,黑土全土及各粒级碳水化合物库大小和浓度基本上没有变化;粗砂粒级(Gal+Man)(:Ara+Xyl)下降,表明该粒级中植物来源碳水化合物所占比重有所增加,暗示出粗砂粒级对施肥措施更为敏感。 相似文献

Incubation of soil with monosaccharide for 224 days resulted in the evolution of about 80 per cent of the substrate carbon as CO2 and the transformation of 3 per cent to soil sugars whether the substrate was 14C-glucose or xylose and whether the soil was pH 7.4 or pH 5.0. There was no detectable change in the total amounts of individual sugars in the soil during incubation. 14C-glucose and xylose gave the same distribution of radioactivity among the soil sugars : hexoses and 6-deoxy-hexoses were initially well labelled, with glucose having twice the specific activity of the other sugars. As the incubation progressed some activity appeared in the pentoses (the activity in xylose became very low within the first 14 days of the 14C-xylose incubation) and that in the hexoses slowly declined, with glucose no longer predominant. Nevertheless after 448 days the hexoses were still 3–4 times more radioactive than the pentoses. The activity in rhamnose did not decline with time so that eventually it became the most strongly labelled sugar. Incubation of soil with glucose and 14C-acetate showed very little transformation of the acetate to sugars indicating that glucose is not metabolized to C2 compounds before it is transformed to other sugars. Ammo-acids in soil incubated for 7 days with 14C-glucose had much lower levels of radioactivity than hexoses or 6-deoxy-hexoses. It is concluded that if soil pentose originates by microbial synthesis it must accumulate slowly by a long process of selective decomposition of a mixture of polysaccharides. 相似文献

A sample of Harwell soil containing 36 percent fine clay (< 0.3 μm) and 14 per cent coarse clay plus fine silt (0.3–5μm) was separated into fractions, and the K-supplying power of soil and fractions measured by cropping with ryegrass, exchange with Ca resin and double-label isotopic exchange with 42K and 45Ca ions. Mineralogical examination of the fractions coupled with the cropping experiments showed that the K-supplying power of the soil to ryegrass can be explained by the presence of a zeolite, clinoptilolite-heulandite, in addition to the clay minerals, mica, and interstratified illitic smectite, commonly found in a glauconitic clay-rich soil. The 0.3–5 μm fraction, containing much zeolite, has an exchange diffusion coefficient for K ions to Ca resin of 1.8 × 10?16 cm2sec?1 compared with a value of 5.7 × 10?20 for the < 0.3μm fractions in which interstratified illitic smectite is the dominant mineral. Isotopic exchange shows that all Ca ions in fractions < 50μm are isotopically exchangeable. In fractions coarser than 20μm, some of the K ions in felspar and mica were not exchangeable within the duration of the experiments. 相似文献

A quantitative assessment was made of the effect of the proportion of sand, silt, clay, and organic matter in twenty-six soils on the available-water capacities (AWC) of the soils. The AWC of a soil was negatively correlated with percentage coarse sand and positively correlated with the percentages of International fine sand (or American silt) and organic C. Using a regression equation, the AWC's of the soils were estimated from mechanical analysis data with a mean accuracy of ± 16 per cent of the mean AWC. 相似文献

Influence of prolonged arable cropping on lignin compounds in sandy soils of the South African Highveld 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
The preservation of plant residues is important for sustainable arable cropping. Lignin is a marker for plant residues in soils. We have investigated influences of the length of cultivation on the dynamics of lignin. Composite samples were taken from the top 20 cm of soils that have been cropped for periods varying from 0 to 98 years in each of three different agro‐ecosystems in the Free State Province of South Africa. Lignin‐derived phenols were determined in the <2 µm (clay), 2–20 µm (silt), 20–250 µm (fine sand) and 250– 2000 µm (coarse sand) size separates. With increasing length of cultivation, the concentration of such phenols decreased to 36% of that in the grassland. The lignin contents as proportions of the total carbon did not change during cultivation, suggesting that there was no selective enrichment of lignin moieties as C was lost as a result of cultivation. The loss rate constants of lignin concentrations in particle‐size fractions increased in the order clay (0.17 year?1) ≤ silt (0.18 year?1) < fine sand (0.20 year?1) < coarse sand (0.22 year?1). Increasing ratios of phenolic acids to aldehydes in bulk soil, silt and fine sand fractions with increasing length of cultivation indicated that side chains were being oxidized. The ratios in the silt fraction, however, decreased after 10–20 years. We attribute this to a loss of lignin together with silt by wind erosion, resulting in a rejuvenation of lignin compounds in the remaining silt‐sized pools of C. 相似文献

Soils with and without organic manuring from 10 long-term manurial experiments in East Germany were fractionated into organo-mineral particle-size separates by ultrasonic disaggregation and sedimentation/decantation. The cation exchange capacities (CECs) buffered at pH 8.1 were determined for the size fractions fine+medium clay, coarse clay, fine, medium and coarse silt, sand, and for the total soil samples. In the samples from nine field experiments the CECs decreased with increased equivalent diameters (fine+medium clay: 489–8 13 mmolc kg?1, coarse clay: 367–749 mmolc kg?1, fine silt: 202–587 mmolc kg?1. medium silt: 63–345 mmolc kg?1, coarse silt: 12–128 mmolc kg?1 and sand: 10–156 mmolc kg?1. The CECs varied with genetic soil type, mineralogical composition of the <6.3-μm particles, and the C and N contents of the size fractions. In a pot experiment examining the role of various organic materials in the early stages of soil formation, the clay-size fractions had the largest CECs (85–392 mmolc kg?1), followed by the medium-silt (1 9-222 mmolc kg?1) and fine-silt fractions (23–192 mmolc kg?1). The effect of organic amendments on CEC was in general: compost>fresh farmyard manure = straw + mineral fertilizer = mineral fertilizer. 相似文献

Losses of carbon and nitrogen with prolonged arable cropping from sandy soils of the South African Highveld 总被引：16，自引：0，他引：16
A knowledge of the kinetics of organic matter transformations in arable soils is important for managing them sustainably. Our aim in this study was to elucidate the effects of cropping period on pools of C and N in coarse‐textured savanna soils of the South African Highveld. Composite samples were taken from the top 20 cm of soils (Plinthustalfs) that have been cropped for lengths of time varying from 0 to 98 years in each of three different agro‐ecosystems in the Free State Province of South Africa. Thereafter, soil organic C and N concentrations were determined in the bulk soil (< 2 mm) as well as in the clay (< 2 μm), silt (2–20 μm), fine sand (20–250 μm), and coarse sand (250–2000 μm) separates. Long‐term cultivation of native grassland reduced soil C and N concentrations by 65 and 55%, respectively. Losses of soil organic matter occurred from all particle‐size separates, although rate loss constants increased as particle size increased. The concentrations of organic C reached equilibrium after 34 years for the bulk soil and after 55 years for clay‐size separates. Nevertheless, organic matter attached to silt continued to be lost as the cropping continued, probably due to wind erosion. Changes in soil properties thereby continued even after almost 100 years of cultivation. 相似文献

15NO3? was immobilized in a calcareous clay and a calcareous sandy soil during incubation of each soil with glucose and wheat straw. Changes in the distribution of immobilized 15N amongst soil extracts and soil fractions of different particle size and density were determined during periods of net N immobilization.The nature of the organic-C amendment, but not soil type, significantly influenced both the distribution of the immobilized 15N and the pattern of changes of the organic-15N of soil fractions with time. In straw-amended soils, approx. 20% of the organic-15N became associated with a light fraction, sp. gr. < 1.59, the remainder becoming distributed mainly amongst the silt and clay fractions. In glucoseamended soils, very little (< 1.2%) of the 15N was immobilized in the light fraction, sp. gr. < 1.59, most being rapidly distributed amongst the silt and clay fractions. During a period of complete immobilization, organic-15N was transferred from the fine clay to the silt and coarse clay fractions.Silt, coarse clay and fine clay components from glucose-amended soils sampled at the end of the net immobilization phase were further fractionated densimetrically into light (sp. gr. < 2.06) and heavy (sp. gr. > 2.06) subfractions. The organic-15N of respective light subfractions accounted for 43–64% of the total organic-15N of the silt, 1–9% of that of the coarse clay and 19–21% of that of the fine clay fractions. 相似文献

Land-use effects on the composition of organic matter in particle-size separates of soil: I. Lignin and carbohydrate signature 总被引：17，自引：0，他引：17
Soil from Eutrochrept A horizons under long-term spruce forest (Sf), mixed deciduous forest (Df), permanent grassland (Gp) and arable rotation (Ar) was fractionated according to particle size and analysed for contents of C, N, lignin-derived phenols and carbohydrates. Whole soil from Sf, Df, Gp and Ar contained 84, 59, 73 and 25 g C kg?1 soil, respectively. For all sites, the C content declined and C/N ratio increased in the order: clay (<2 μm), silt (2–20 μm), sand (20–2000 μm). Clay and silt were significantly lower in C in Ar than in Sf, Df and Gp, C associated with sand being substantially lower under arable rotation. The yield of lignin-derived phenols decreased and carboxyl functionality and methoxyl demethylation of lignin derivatives increased with decreasing particle size, indicating a progressive lignin alteration. Whole soil from Sf and Gp was substantially higher in vanillyl (V), syringyl (S) and cinnamyl (C) units (VSC) than soil from Df and Ar. Compared to whole soil, clay was depleted and sand enriched in VSC. Only sand appeared to be affected significantly by land use. Sand from Ar and Df was more enriched in VSC than sand from Gp and Sf. Whole soil carbohydrates decreased in the order: Gp>Ar>Df>Sf. Sand- and clay-sized separates were enriched in carbohydrates compared to silt. Carbohydrates in sand were mainly of plant origin whereas microbially-derived sugars accounted for a larger proportion in the clay. Compared to Sf, Df and Gp, clay from Ar was enriched and sand depleted in microbial sugars. Lignin and carbohydrate distribution patterns indicate that organic matter was in a more advanced stage of decomposition in the sand separates from forest than from agricultural A horizons. The forest soils also show a higher degree of oxidative changes in lignin associated with clay. In contrast, differences between silt from the four A horizons were small. 相似文献

Field estimates of silt and clay contents were compared statistically with the silt (2-60 μm) and clay (<2 μm) contents determined by the pipette method of 184 soil horizons from a large range of west Midland soils (clay contents 1–81 per cent and silt contents 3–71 per cent). Regression equations were calculated (a) for each of four surveyors using combined topsoil and subsoil data and (b) for surface and subsoils separately using combined data for the four surveyors. There is slight evidence of ‘operator bias’ and a tendency for all four surveyors to underestimate clay in surface horizons though these conclusions have limited significance because of the small number and the distribution of some of the sample populations. Single equations for the combined data from all operators and all horizons explained 75.5 per cent of the variation in field estimates of silt content and 85.4 per cent of the variation of clay estimates. For silt, the regression line almost passes through the origin with a slope not significantly different from unity, whilst for clay, the line intercepts the y-axis close to zero and has a slope of 0.904. The results show that, with experience and adequate reference samples, surveyors can confidently estimate the particle-size distribution of a wide range of soils. These studies were done during soil mapping in Staffordshire, Hereford and Worcester, and Salop using the newly introduced soil classification (Avery, 1973) and revised Handbook (Hodgson, 1974) of the Soil Survey of England and Wales. 相似文献

14C-labelled cellulose was added to seven different soils containing silt + clay (particles < 0.02 mm) in amounts which varied from 8 to 75 per cent. The cellulose was allowed to decompose, and the amounts of labelled C transformed into metabolites hydrolyzable into amino acids were determined. The amounts of labelled amino acid C in the soils were proportional to their content of silt + clay. After 30 days of incubation labelled amino acid C remaining in the soil with the lowest content of silt + clay constituted 6 per cent of the carbon added in cellulose, as compared with 18 per cent in the soil with the highest content of silt + clay. These values had decreased to 5 and 13 per cent respectively after 2 years of incubation. The order between the soils in the content of labelled amino acid C established during the first month of incubation, was thus roughly maintained throughout the period of incubation. The biological half-life of the labelled C in amino acids varied in the seven soils during the last year of incubation from 3 to 8 years. The variation was, however, not related to the amount of silt + clay.n the soils had been incubated with the labelled material for 2 years, samples of the soils were exposed to “stress” treatments: air drying-rewetting; increased biological activity caused by addition of glucose, and exposure to chloroform vapour. The treatments resulted in an evolution of labelled C in CO, which was 5–10 times larger than the evolution from untreated samples. The increase in the CO2 evolution caused by the treatments in the different soils was, however, not related to the amount of silt + clay, and a high content of this material did not protect organic material against the effect of the treatments.is concluded that the silt + clay fraction ensures stabilization of amino acid metabolites produced during the period of intense biological activity that follows the addition of decomposable, energy rich material to the soil. The amount of amino acid metabolites stabilized increased with increasing concentration of silt + clay, but the rate of decay of the amino acid material during later stages was largely independent of the concentration of silt + clay. 相似文献

Abstract Many of the cultivated soils of sub‐Saharan Africa typically have a surface horizon low in clay and with a low cation exchange capacity (CEC). In these soils, CEC is largely due to the soil organic matter (SOM). Measurements made on long‐term trials show that changes in CEC and SOM are positively correlated to one another, but not of same magnitude, suggesting that not all of the SOM plays an equal role as regards the soil CEC. To study the influence of the different SOM size fractions on the CEC, soils with or without application of manure or compost coming from trials in Chad and Côte d'Ivoire were separated without destruction of the SOM into five organo‐mineral fractions: “coarse sand”;, “fine sand”;, “coarse silt”;, “fine silt”;, and “clay”; made up of particles of sizes between 2,000 and 200, 200 and 50, 50 and 20, 20 and 2, and 2 and 0 μm, respectively. Fractionation was carried out by mechanical dispersion of the soil, wet sieving of the fractions larger than 20 μm, and decanting of the “clay”; and “fine silt”; fractions. The CEC of these fractions increases inversely with their size. The “clay”; fraction which contains half of the SOM contributes about 80% of the CEC of the soils. The CEC of the fractions is largely a function of their carbon (C) content, but the organic CEC per unit C of the “clay”; fraction appears to be four times greater than that of the other fractions (1,000 as against 270 cmolc kg‐1). Applications of manure or compost increase the CEC of the soils by increasing the soil C only when this C increase concerns the fine fractions of the SOM. 相似文献

The influence of fertilization on organic‐carbon fractions separated by density and particle size in Heilu soil (Calcic Kastanozems, FAO) was investigated in a 20‐year (1979–1999) long‐term experiment on the Loess Plateau of China. Compared to an unfertilized treatment, N application alone did not increase total organic carbon (TOC) and its fractions of density and particle size. However, the treatment of N + P fertilization significantly increased salty‐solution–soluble organic carbon (SSOC), microbial biomass C (MB‐C), and organic C associated with fine silt. When manure was applied alone and in combination with N and P fertilizer, the light fraction of organic C (LFOC), SSOC, and MB‐C were increased significantly, and the TOC was as high as that of a native Heilu soil. Organic C associated with different particle‐size fractions was also increased significantly, and the allocation of C among the fractions was altered: the proportions of C in sand (>50 μm), coarse‐silt (20–50 μm), and fine‐clay (<0.2 μm) fractions were increased whereas fine‐silt (2–20 μm) and coarse‐clay (0.2–2 μm) fractions were decreased. It is concluded that N fertilizer alone is not capable of restoring organic‐matter content in the Heilu soils of the Loess Plateau and that C‐containing material like manure and straw is necessary to produce significant increase in soil organic carbon in these soils. 相似文献

Soil organic matter can be divided into different organic carbon (C) pools with different turnover rates. The organic pollutants in soils associated with these organic C pools may have different bioavailability and environmental risks during the decomposition of soil organic matter. We studied the distribution patterns of 15 USEPA priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in different particle‐size separates (clay, fine silt, coarse silt, fine sand and coarse sand) and density fractions (light and heavy fractions) of nine agricultural topsoils (0–20 cm depth) from a contaminated area in the Yangtze River Delta region of east China. There was a decreasing trend in PAH concentration in particle‐size separates with decreasing particle size. However, the different particle‐size separates had similar PAH composition. The concentration of PAHs in the light fraction ranged from 13 037 to 107 299 μg kg?1, far higher than in the heavy fraction, which ranged from 222 to 298 μg kg?1. Although the light fraction accounted for only 0.4–2.3% of the soils, it was associated with 31.5–69.5% of soil PAHs. The organic matter in coarse silt had the strongest capacity for enrichment with PAHs. Combining the distributions of PAHs and the turnover rates of organic matter in different soil fractions, the environmental risks of PAH‐polluted soils may be due mainly to the PAHs associated with sand and the light fraction. 相似文献

A mildly leached soil and a calcareous clay soil were dispersed using ultrasound. In the mildly leached soil, organic carbon, nitrogen and ATP (which was used as a guide of the soil microbial biomass) were concentrated in the finer fractions. In the calcareous clay, organic carbon and nitrogen were concentrated in the silt fraction.When slurries of the same soils were shaken vigourously in a wrist action shaker the soils were more completely dispersed but the recovery of ATP was only 30% compared with 90% after ultrasonic dispersion. It is concluded that the vigorous shaking of a soil slurry is destructive with respect to the biomass and smears cell contents, including ATP, across the colloidal fractions.The use of 14C showed that organisms, and metabolic products after incubation of [14C]glucose, existed mainly in larger aggregates (> 250 μm dia), silt and clay sized materials. Following physical dispersion the 14C shifted to silt and clay fractions.It is concluded that while fine clay may be a source of the metabolic products of organisms, the silt fraction a source of cells, and macroorganic matter contains most of the plant debris, the association of microorganisms with inorganic colloids is such that “clean” fractionations of biological components in soils cannot be realized. 相似文献

The composition of organic matter was studied in clay (< 2 μm), fine silt (2-6.3 μm), medium silt (6.3-20 μm), coarse silt (20-63 μm) and sand (63-2000 μm) fractions of the Ap-horizon of a clay loam (Orthic Humic Gleysol) from Bainsville (Ottawa, Canada) by organic C and total N analyses and pyrolysis-field ionization mass spectrometry (Py-FIMS). The C and N contents were largest in fine silt and medium silt and smaller in coarse silt and sand. Differences in the contents of organic matter and absorbed water were significantly (r= 0.945***) reflected by the amounts of volatilized matter during Py-FIMS. The Py-FI therniograms and mass spectra showed clear differences in thermal stability and molecular composition of organic matter between the organo-mineral size-fractions. Abundances of carbohydrates, phenols and lignin monomers, alkylaromatics and N-containing compounds decreased, whereas abundances of lignin dimers and lipids increased with increasing equivalent diameters. An exception was the sand fraction which was dominated by the characteristic features of plant residues. The six compound classes, calculated using signals of biomarkers, accounted for 35% to 60% of the recorded total ion intensity. The thermal evolution of the selected compound classes, which are important constituents of soil organic matter (SOM), indicated the stability of humic and organo-mineral bonds in particle-size fractions, Moreover, the influence of mineral matrix on organic matter composition was shown by significant correlations between relative abundances of carbohydrates, N-containing compounds, lipids, lignin dimers, and proportions of phyllosilicates. 相似文献
