As a source of organic matter, crop residues affect the behaviour of pesticides in agricultural soils. The fate of [U‐ring‐13C] and [U‐ring‐14C] atrazine (6‐chloro‐N‐ethyl‐N‐isopropyl‐1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4‐diamine) was investigated during laboratory incubation under controlled conditions in a loamy soil amended with wheat straw at two different states of decomposition: no preliminary decomposition or 6 months’ preliminary decomposition. After 3 months, non‐extractable, so‐called ‘bound’, 13C‐atrazine residues were recovered in three particle‐size fractions (> 200, 50–200 and < 50 μm), and investigated with solid‐state 13C‐NMR spectroscopy. Parallel incubations with [U‐ring‐14C] atrazine were carried out to quantify the bound residues as well as the extractable and mineralized fractions. The effect of straw residues on atrazine behaviour depended on whether they had been previously decomposed or not. When straw was decomposed for 6 months prior to incubation, atrazine mineralization was enhanced to 50% of the initial 14C in contrast to 15% of the initial 14C in soil alone and soil amended with fresh straw. In parallel, atrazine bound residues were formed in greater amount representing up to 20% of the initial 14C. CP/MAS 13C‐NMR on soil size fractions of soil–straw mixtures after incubation with 13C‐atrazine showed that bound residues contained mostly triazinic C, corresponding to atrazine or primary metabolites. Non‐humified organic materials recovered in size fractions > 200 and 50–200 μm contained significant amounts of bound residues, especially when straw was added to the soil. CP/MAS 13C‐NMR analysis of humic acids obtained from < 50‐μm fractions was difficult due to overlapping of the native carboxyl 13C signal with the 13C‐atrazine signal.  相似文献

The transformations of the indigenous 13C and the 13C from either uniformly enriched 13C-D-glucose or 13C-glycine added to an organic soil were followed during a 28-day incubation using cross polarization (CP) magic angle spinning (MAS) 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and dipolar dephased (DDP) MAS 13C NMR. The C mineralization was determined from 13C remaining by mass spectrometry and from CO2 evolution by gas chromatography. DDP MAS 13C NMR of the unamended soil indicated a transient increase in molecularly mobile 13C in the alkyl- and methyl-C over 5 days, which may be due to redistribution of 13C in the microbial biomass in response to perturbation. The added glucose-13C remaining declined to 43% after 7 days and 34% after 28 days. After 28 days the amount of added glucose-13C remaining was 6 times greater than the biomass C at the outset, while the microbial activity (CO2 production) was 38% greater, indicating that a significant proportion of added glucose-13C was not in microorganisms. Added glycine-13C declined faster, such that 29% and 8% remained after 7 and 28 days, respectively. After 28 days’ incubation with 13C-glucose, the O-alkyl-C, the acetal- and ketal-C, and the methyl- and alkyl-C resonances in CP MAS 13C NMR spectra were all enhanced compared with the unamended soil. The calculated T1ρH values of the O-alkyl-C and the acetal- and ketal-C resonances were less than those of crystalline glucose, indicating that there was no substantial reservoir of unreacted glucose. After 7 days’ incubation with 13C-glycine, none of the signals in the CP MAS 13C NMR spectra were enhanced when compared with the unamended soil, indicating that the added 13C remaining was distributed in undetectable quantities in a range of functionalities. The calculated T1ρH values indicated that glycine 13C was in O-alkyl-C, acetal- and ketal-C and carbonyl-C. T1ρH values may be more sensitive to changes in the distribution of 13C when 13C content is low. The DDP MAS 13C NMR spectra of both the 13C-glucose- and the 13C-glycine-amended soil showed that the molecularly mobile alkyl- and methyl-C increased compared with the unamended soil.

Transformations of sodium acetate, ammonium sulphate, urea and wheat straw in peat have been studied by determining the distribution of 15N-labelled material, and by 13C and 15N nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) using cross polarization (CP) and magic-angle spinning (MAS). Samples of an oligotrophic blanket peat were incubated for 6 months at 15°C with 15N ammonium sulphate, 15N urea, 13C15N urea, 15N-labelled wheat straw or 13C sodium acetate. The incubated samples were separated into fractions of >1 mm, 1–0.5 mm, 0.5–0.25 mm, 0.25–0.15 mm, 0.15–0.05 mm, 0.05–0.005 mm and a water-soluble fraction by wet sieving, and were then freeze-dried. The distribution of 15N between the fractions was obtained after isotope-ratio analysis by mass spectrometry, and the 0.5–0.25 mm, 0.05–0.005 mm and water-soluble fractions from the incubations were examined by 13C and 15N NMR. 13C-labelled acetate increased carbohydrate resonances in the 0.05–0.005 mm and soluble material, but an organic acid derived from the substrate was still present 6 months later. Incorporation of 15N from ammonium sulphate into the peat was low, and more than 50% of the added N was detected in the soluble fraction still present as 15NH+4. As carbohydrate and soluble organic matter were detected in the peat, it was concluded that microbial activity and N immobilization were restricted by poor aeration and low pH. Urea, in contrast, interacted with all the fractions examined, with some 15N being incorporated into a range of compounds that included protein, peptides, amides, amino acids and carbamates or lactam derivatives. A small proportion of labelled 15N from wheat straw, orginally present in the > 1 mm and 14.5 mm fractions, had moved into the 0.05–0.005 fraction during incubation and sieving. The 13C spectra suggested that the presence of the straw may have stimulated decomposition of the peat components.  相似文献

Solutions labelled with 15N were applied as (15NH4)2SO4 or K15NO3 to isolated microplots in the floor of mountain beech forest (Nothofagus solandri var. cliffortioides) and incubated for 135 days under field conditions of moisture and temperature. Solid state 15N CPMAS NMR spectra of the forest litter layer showed that more than 80% of the total signal intensity was attributable to the secondary amide-peptide peak. The degree of 15N enrichment or form of N did not alter the relative intensity of signals attributable to 15N in peptides, nucleic acids and aliphatic amine groups (amino sugars and free NH2 on amino acids). Combinations of 13C and 15N-NMR spectra, edited by a process that exploited differences in proton spin properties between distinct categories of organic matter, indicated incorporation of 15N in humified organic matter rather than partly degraded plant material. This application demonstrated that solid state 15N CPMAS NMR has potential for use in studies of N immobilization under field conditions and with materials containing little N and small 15N enrichment.  相似文献

When incorporated in soil, plant residues and their decomposition products are in close contact with mineral particles with which they can be bound to form aggregates. We measured the incorporation of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) derived from crop residues in water-stable aggregate fractions of a silty soil in a field experiment in Northern France using 13C15N-labelled wheat straw (Triticum aestivum L.). Soil samples were taken seven times for 18 months and separated into slaking-resistant aggregate size fractions which were analysed for total C and N contents, and 13C and 15N enrichments. During the early stages of decomposition (approximately 200 days), the enrichment of 13C increased rapidly in the macro aggregates (> 250 pm) but decreased thereafter. The macro aggregates represented only < 20% of the soil mass and at any one time, they accounted for <25% of the residual 13C in the soil. The proportion of 13C recovered in the <50-μm and 50–250-μm fractions increased during decomposition of the residues; at day 574, the 50–250-μm fraction accounted for close to 50% of the residual 13C. A greater proportion of 15N than 13C was recovered in the <50-μm fraction. The results indicate that during decomposition in soil, C and N from crop residues become rapidly associated with stable aggregates. In this silty soil the 50–250-μm stable aggregates appear to be involved in the storage and stabilization of C from residues.  相似文献

The small organic matter content of mineral soils makes it difficult to obtain 13C and 15N nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra with acceptable signal-to-noise ratios. Subjecting such samples to hydrofluoric acid removes mineral matter and leads to a relative increase in organic material. The effect of treatment with 10% hydrofluoric acid on bulk chemical composition and resolution of solid-state 13C NMR spectra was investigated with six soils, some associated particle size fractions, plant litter and compost. The treatment enhanced the signal-to-noise ratio of the solid-state 13C NMR spectra. The improvement in spectrum quality was greatest in the clay fraction of soil contaminated with coal ash. The removal of paramagnetic compounds associated with the ash may be the main reason for the improvement. Based on total C, total N, C/N ratio and intensity distribution of the solid-state 13C NMR spectra, no changes in organic matter composition could be detected, except for a possible loss of carbohydrates. After treatment with HF, solid-state 15N NMR spectra of particle size fractions were obtained and indicated that the observable nitrogen is present mostly as peptides and free amino groups. Extraction with hydrofluoric acid is recommended as a routine treatment prior to solid-state 13C and 15N NMR on soil containing little C or N and soil samples containing paramagnetic compounds from natural or anthropogenic sources.  相似文献

We undertook what we believe to be a unique survey of the natural abundances of 13C and 15N in urban soils and plants in Karlsruhe (Germany), a European city of average size. We found broad patterns of these abundances in both soils and plants, which reflected geology and land use. In contrast with studies on smaller areas (showing the direct effect of human activities), our study first determined the extent to which the abundances correlated with land use or underlying geology and then assessed how we could further test such relationships. The spatial pattern of δ13C in surface soil correlated with that of the underlying parent material; construction activities superimposed a secondary signal. Maize cultivation was a source of less negative soil δ13C, whereas the C3 vegetation is a source of more negative soil δ13C. There was a footprint of less negative plant δ13C in the industrial and port areas; plant δ13C downwind of the city was less negative than upwind, which might relate to atmospheric pollution from the port area or to differences in soil properties. There was no significant effect of wind direction or geology on soil or plant δ15N, which was correlated mainly with land use. The largest soil δ15N was under agriculture and the smallest under woodland. The abundance of 15N in inner-urban soil and plants was intermediate between those of agriculture and forests. This study represents a major advance in the use of stable isotope geochemistry in understanding urban environments.  相似文献

Four samples of soil organic matter and their humic acids, fulvic acids and humin were studied with solid-state 13CP MAS NMR. The whole soil samples were fractionated using NaOH and HCl in order to extract humic acids, fulvic acids and humin. This investigation indicates that conventional humus fractionation does not significantly change the content of different functional groups in soil.  相似文献

l3C–nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra taken using magic–angle spinning (MAS), cross polarization (CP) and with total suppression of side bands (TOSS) are reported for soils from two long–term field experiments. One set of soils was from the Broadbalk Experiment at Rothamsted, UK (monoculture of winter wheat since 1843) and the other was from the Lermarken site of the Askov Long–Term Experiment on Animal Manure and Mineral Fertilizers (arable rotation since 1894). At both sites soil samples were taken from three fertilizer treatments: nil, inorganic fertilizers, animal manure. Spectra were obtained from whole soil samples and from the size fractions clay (<2 μrn), silt (2–20 μm) and, in some cases, sand (20–2000 μm). Comparison of the total strengths of the 13C–NMR signal for each size separate in relation to its total organic C content shows that clay, particularly, contains large percentages of C not detected by NMR because of the large magnetic susceptibilities of the soil minerals. It is proposed that the observed signals come from the more labile pools of soil organic matter (SOM), on the presumption that these pools are less closely associated with soil minerals and iron oxides and are likely to be less protected from microbial or enzymic decomposition. For both Rothamsted and Askov, functional groups in the 45–110 ppm region (N– and O–alkyls) dominate in the spectra for whole soils, with aromatics (110–160 ppm) and alkyls (0–45 ppm) signals being the next prominent. In the Askov whole soil samples 13C–NMR revealed no differences between nil, inorganic fertilizer and animal manure treatments but in the Rothamsted whole soil there were some small differences. Clay and silt fractions from Askov contain more alkyls and less aromatics than those from Rothamsted. For both sites clay in enriched in alkyls and depleted in aromatics relative to silt. Clay from Askov, but not Rothamsted, contains more N–alkyls (45–65 ppm) and less acetals (90–110 ppm) than silt. O–alkyls (65–90 ppm) account for more than 20% of the total signal in clay and silt from both sites. Fertilization regimes have not significantly affected the chemical composition of SOM associated with clay– and silt–sized fractions in the soils at either site. We conclude that the chemical composition of SOM is determined primarily by the interaction between the organisms responsible for decomposition and the mineral soil matrix rather than the nature of substrate input.  相似文献

The composition of soil organic matter (SOM) on sewage farms south of Berlin was investigated by solid-state CP/MAS 13C-NMR and pyrolysis-field ionization mass spectrometry (Py-FIMS) of freeze-dried sewage solids and soil samples of differing contamination. These were an untreated soil (USOIL), a former sewage farm used as arable land since 1990 (SF90A), and a recent sewage farm (SF1994). The CP/MAS 13C-NMR spectra showed enrichments of the sewage-treated soils with aliphatic C and C in OCH3-groups and amino acids. In the Py-FI mass spectra the major markers of sewage and SOM in sewage farm soils were (i) N-containing compounds, in particular peptides, (ii) dimethylphthalate (m/z 194), (iii) sterols, and (iv) signals in the mass range m/z 502 to 554 of mono- and diaryl esters which were substituted by long aliphatic chains. The latter signals were intense in the sewage solids, increased in intensity from sample SF90A to SF1994; but they were not present in the USOIL, thus clearly indicating anthropogenic origin. Temperature-resolved Py-FIMS showed that the SOM compounds in the sewage farm soils were generally incorporated into bonds with widely different stabilities which could be relevant for SOM turnover and environmental effects. This is demonstrated for the trapping of dimethylphthalate in a modelled humic substance.  相似文献

Spin counting on solid‐state 13C cross‐polarization (CP) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of two humic fractions isolated from tropical lowland soils showed that only 32–81% of potential 13C NMR signal was detected. The observability of 13C NMR signal (Cobs) was higher in the mobile humic acid (MHA) than in the calcium humate (CaHA) fraction, and increased with increasing intensity of irrigated rice cropping. NMR observability appeared to be related to the nature of the organic carbon, with phenol‐ and methoxyl‐rich samples having the higher values of Cobs. The Bloch decay (BD) technique provided more quantitatively reliable 13C NMR spectra, as evidenced by values of Cobs in the range 91–100% for seven of the eight humic fractions studied. The BD spectra contained considerably more aryl and carbonyl signal, and less O–alkyl and alkyl signal, with the greatest differences between CP and BD spectra observed for the samples with low Cobs(CP). The causes of low CP observability were investigated using the spectral editing technique RESTORE ( RE storation of S pectra via T CH and T O ne R ho (T1ρH) E diting). Rapid T1ρH relaxation was found to be primarily responsible for the under‐representation of carbonyl carbon, whereas inefficient cross‐polarization was primarily responsible for the under‐representation of aryl carbon in CP spectra. Proton NMR relaxation rates T1H and T1ρH were found to correlate with other NMR properties and also with cropping management. Non‐uniform rates of T1H relaxation in two of the CaHA fractions enabled the generation of proton spin relaxation editing subspectra.  相似文献

Both P and Al MAS NMR spectra of samples of excessively fertilized sandy soil provided information about the P and Al speciation. Peak deconvolution was used to interpret reliably and quantitatively the 31P NMR spectra recorded. Most of the P was found to be associated with Al. Part of the P exhibited a chemical shift that could be attributed to octocalcium phosphate, amorphous calcium phosphate or apatite. Apatite has, however, never been reported to occur in sandy soils of temperate climates. A dithionite extraction used to remove interfering Fe from the samples also removed most of the octahedral Al-P phase. After oxalate extraction more than 99% of the original P signal disappeared. About 7.5 to 11 % of the total oxalate extractable P of the excessively fertilized soil was present as a Ca-P phase, even though these soils are slightly acid to acid. The estimated size of the Ca-P phase roughly corresponds to the size of the labile P pool of these soils, as assessed in long-term batch desorption experiments. It still remains unclear whether the labile P pool should be attributed solely to such a Ca-P phase.  相似文献

Long‐term dynamics of amino acids (AAs), from a bare fallow soil experiment (established in 1928 at INRA‐Versailles, France), were examined in unamended control (Con) plots and plots treated with ammonium sulphate (Amsul), ammonium nitrate (Amnit), sodium nitrate (Nanit) or with animal manure (Man). Topsoil (0–25 cm) from 1929, 1963 and 1997 was analysed for C, N and 15N content and distribution of 18 amino acids recovered after acid hydrolysis with 6 m HCl. With time, soil N, C and AA content were reduced in Con, Amsul, Amnit and Nanit, but increased in Man. However, the absolute N loss was 3–11 times larger in Man than Nanit, Amsul, Amnit and Con, due to the much higher N annual inputs applied to Man. From 1929 to 1997 in Con, Amsul, Amnit and Nanit the whole soil and non‐hydrolysable‐N pool δ15N increased associated with the loss of N (indicative of Rayleigh 15N/14N fractionation). No δ15N change from 1929 to 1997 was found in the hydrolysable AA‐N (HAN) pool. Fertilizer N inputs aided stabilization of soil AA‐N, as AA half‐life in the mineral N fertilizer treatments increased from 34 years in 1963 to 50 years in 1997. The δ15N values of alanine and leucine reflected both source input and 15N/14N fractionation effects in soils. The δ15N increase of ornithine (～6‰) was similar to the whole soil. The δ15N change of phenylalanine in Con (decrease of 7‰) was related to its proportional loss since 1929, whereas for Amsul, Amnit, Nanit and Man it was associated with isotope effects caused by the fertilizer inputs. However, the soil δ15N value of most individual amino acids (IAAs) did not significantly change over nearly 70 years, even with mineral or organic N inputs. We conclude for these bare fallow systems that: (i) δ15N changes in the whole soil and non‐hydrolysable AA pool were solely driven by microbial processes and not by the nature of fertilizer inputs, and (ii) without plant inputs, the δ15N of the HAN pool and (most) IAAs may reflect the influence of plant–soil interactions from the previous (arable cropping) rather than present (fallow) land use on these soil δ15N values.  相似文献

Four soils with a range of clay and silt contents were incubated for 5 a with 15N-labelled (NH4)SO4 and 14C-labelled hemicellulose and then fractionated according to particle size by ultrasonic dispersion and sedimentation. The distribution of labelled and native N between clay, silt and sand fractions was determined and elated to previous results on the C distributions. Between 29% and 48% of the added N was found in organic form. The 15N atom percentage excess decreased in the order: clay > whole soil > silt > sand. For both clay and silt, the enrichment factor for labelled and native N decreased with increasing fraction weight. Clay enrichment was higher for labelled than for native N, the converse being true for silt. The distribution of whole soil labelled organic N was: clay 77–91%, silt 4–11%, and sand <0.5%. Corresponding values for native N were 69–74%, 16–22%, and 1–2%, respectively. All soils had higher proportions of labelled than of native N in the clay, the converse was true for the silt. The C/N ratio of the native silt organic matter was higher and that of clay organic matter lower than whole soil C/N ratios. Differences between the C/N ratio distributions of native and labelled organic matter were small. The relative distribution of labelled N and C was very similar confirming that the turnover of C and N in soil organic matter is closely interrelated.  相似文献

Yield responses of irrigated, field‐grown cotton to phosphorus fertilizer application in Australia have been variable. In an attempt to understand better this variability, the distribution of fertilizer P within soil P fractions was identified using 32P and 33P radioisotopes. The soil chosen, an alkaline, grey, cracking clay (Vertosol), was representative of those used for growing cotton in Australia. Chang and Jackson fractionation of soil P from samples collected within 1 h of application indicated that 49, 7 and 13% of the P fertilizer was present as 0.5 m NH4F, 0.1 m NaOH and 1 m H2SO4 extractable P, respectively. Over 89% of the P fertilizer was recovered as Colwell extractable P in these samples, suggesting that the majority of these reaction products was in a highly plant‐available form. Fertilizer‐P remained in an available form within the band 51 days after application, and 68% of the applied fertilizer‐P was recovered as Colwell‐P (1071 mg kg?1). The Colwell‐P concentration in the band was 35 times that in the unfertilized soil. Thus, the variability in crop response to P fertilizer application in these soils is not a consequence of fertilizer‐P becoming unavailable to plants. These results confirm the suitability of the Colwell (1963) sodium bicarbonate extraction method for measuring available P in these soils.  相似文献

Two soils differing in ammonium fixation capacity were incubated for 127 days with 15N-ammonium sulphate. In a gley soil with high NH+4-fixing capacity caused by smectites with a charge up to 0.8 per formula unit, the major part of the added ammonium was first fixed by minerals and then released slowly during incubation. The proportion of labelled N in the nitrate fraction increased during the first weeks and then decreased permanently. In contrast, in a histosol with low NH+4-fixing capacity, the exchangeable fraction contained most of the labelled NH+4, this being highly available to microorganisms and therefore subject to nitrification. About 50% of the added 15NH4 was lost from the histosol in 127 days, but only about 20 per cent was lost from the gley soil.  相似文献

The decomposition of 15N-labelled catch-crop materials (rape, radish and rye), obtained from field experiments, was studied in a chalky Champagne soil during a 60-week incubation at 28°C. Mineralized N was assumed to come from either labile or recalcitrant fractions of plant residues. The labile fraction represented about one-third of the catch-crop N; its mineralization rate constant varied from 0.06 to 0.12 d?1. The decomposition rate of the recalcitrant N fraction ranged from 0.03 × 10?2 to 0.06 × 10?2 d?1. Catch-crop species and rate of incorporation had no effect on N residue mineralized at the end of incubation. The decomposition of labelled rye was monitored in the same soil during a 5-month pot experiment to determine the N availability to an Italian ryegrass crop and the effect of plants on the decomposition processes. The 15N-rye decomposed rapidly both in the presence or absence of Italian ryegrass, but the amounts of N mineralized were influenced by the presence of living roots: 42% of the 15N in labelled rye was present as inorganic N in the pots without plants after 5 months, compared with only 32% in the ryegrass crop. Comparison of microbial-biomass dynamics in both treatments suggested that there had been preferential utilization by soil micro-organisms of materials released from the living roots than the labelled plant residues.  相似文献

The microbial communities in agricultural soils are responsible for nutrient cycling and thus for maintaining soil fertility. However, there is still a considerable lack of knowledge on anthropogenic impacts on soils, their microflora, and the associated nutrient cycles. In this microcosm study, microorganisms involved in the conversion of crop residues were investigated by means of classical microbiological and molecular methods such as denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of PCR (polymerase chain reaction) amplified 16S rRNA genes. 14C‐labelled maize straw was humified by the naturally occurring microflora in native and in ashed soils, from which organic carbon was removed by heating at 600°C. The humic acids synthesized in the microcosms served as indicators of the humification process and were analysed by 13C‐NMR spectroscopy. Ashed, autoclaved and native soil exhibited similar microbial and physicochemical dynamics after inoculation with a soil suspension. Bacterial counts and DGGE analyses showed that in the first few weeks a small number of rapidly growing r‐strategists were principally responsible for the conversion of maize straw. As the incubation continued, the bacterial diversity increased as well as the fungal biomass. 13C‐NMR spectroscopy of 26‐week old soil extracts revealed that structures typical of humic substances also evolved from the plant material.  相似文献

Summary A clear understanding of the short-term decomposition and fate of crop residues is necessary to predict the availability of mineral N in soil. The fate of 13 C15N-labelled wheat straw in a silty soil (Typic Hapludalf) was studied using particle size fractionation and in situ incubation in which the equivalent of 8 t dry matter per ha of straw was incorporated into the soil over 574 days. Soil samples were separated into five particle-size fractions by wet sieving after disruption of aggregates. The weight, C and N contents, and 13C and 15N atom excess of each fraction were determined. Straw-derived C disappeared rapidly from the > 2000-μm fraction with an estimated half-life of 53 'normalized' days (equivalent of 10°C and −0−01 MPA water potential). Straw-derived C appeared to be only temporarily stored in the intermediate fractions (1000–2000 and 200–1000 pm). The maximum net 13C accumulation in the 50–200-μm fraction was 4·4% of added 13C. Straw-derived C accumulated most rapidly and preferentially in the 50-μm fraction, which stabilized after 265 days and accounted for 70% of the residual 13C on day 574. Although there was more residual 15N than 13C, the distributions and kinetics of the two isotopes in the fractions were similar.  相似文献

Two hydrofluoric acid‐treated soils were prepared with water contents ranging up to 22% by exposing them to a range of atmospheric humidities. There was no effect of water content on the chemical shift distribution of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal in 13C cross‐polarization (CP) NMR spectra. The sensitivity of the 13C CP NMR spectra decreased slightly with increasing water content. Much of this decrease could be attributed to decreases in T1ρH relaxation rates, caused by enhanced molecular mobility of the organic matter in the presence of absorbed water. Rates of T1H relaxation were very sensitive to water content, and average T1H relaxation rates decreased four‐ to five‐fold from the smallest to the largest water content. Rates of T1H relaxation were non‐uniform, and were better modelled by two‐T1H component fits than one‐T1H component fits. The ratio of rapidly to slowly relaxing components increased with increasing water content. Proton spin relaxation editing (PSRE) subspectra revealed substantial changes in the nature of these two components with increasing water content. These results indicate the presence of an organic matter component that is very sensitive to water content, transforming from slowly relaxing at a small water content to rapidly relaxing at a greater water content. This component was shown to be rich in O–alkyl and carbonyl C, and may be hemicellulosic root exudates and microbial mucilages. The slowly relaxing PSRE component was a mixture of ligno‐cellulose and alkyl biopolymers, whereas the rapidly relaxing component was primarily charcoal for one of the soils, and was reminiscent of dissolved organic carbon for the other soil. These findings show that care must be taken in controlling water contents when using PSRE to study organic matter.  相似文献
