Parent material uniformity and degree of weathering in a soil chronosequence, northwestern Italy 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The uniformity of the parent material and degree of weathering of the soils of a chronosequence developed during the Pleistocene were investigated using optical microscopy, X-ray fluorescence and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. Uniformity of the parent material was assessed by two criteria: the ratios of resistant minerals, and their specific elements, in the heavy fraction (S.G. > 2.96 g · cm−3). There was some variation between heavy mineral ratios but there was less variation between ratios from the chemical data, and on this basis it was concluded that the parent material of each of the three soils in the sequence was uniform. SEM examination confirmed that the resistant minerals had remained unaltered although some Ti-bearing minerals showed some alteration. The degree of chemical weathering, as expressed by the ratio of mobile to non-mobile elements, and by Parker's Index, increased from the youngest to the oldest soil. 相似文献

Shallow friable red soils (euchrozems) and shallow cracking clays (black earths) occur in close proximity on basalt hills of the Darling Downs of Queensland. The euchrozems are mainly restricted to fiat hill crests and are associated with lithosols; the shallow black earths occur on upper pediment slopes, on small convex crests and on depressions on flat crests. The euchrozems are moderately leached and contain kaolin minerals and hematite with minor montmorillonite, while the black earths are dominantly montmorillonite with minor kaolin and hematite. It is proposed that the euchrozems have developed by long continued weathering under stable well-drained conditions while the black earths have formed in sites prone to erosion and in situations with less water available for weathering. The weathering products produced in each situation have ensured continuation of the processes. The presence of two red soils in anomalous positions have been ascribed to (a) soil formation on exposed ‘bole’ (compacted red clay) layers and (b) local peculiarities of parent material controlling the course of weathering. 相似文献

The origin of red clayey soils developed on limestones has been largely questioned. We have analyzed thick red soils on Eocene-Pliocene
limestones of the Yucatán peninsula (with detail in the Kantunil Kin area). The morphological, geochemical and mineralogical
characteristics were interpreted as a record of pedogenesis and geomorphic dynamics during the Quaternary. Sand fraction mineralogy,
the Zr/Ti ratio and ternary diagrams of Trace elements (Ti-Y-Zr, La-Th-Sc and Zr-Th-Sc) indicated a mixed origin of the soil
parent material; volcanic and granitic/metamorphic components, redeposited by eolian transport. Within the soil matrix, primary
minerals were transformed by weathering and caused desilication with the accumulation of kaolinitic clay. Reworked pedofeatures
were originated from different soil bodies eroded. In the lower part of the profiles, we described the zone of carbonate leaching
front, were the clay translocation in suspensions and posterior coagulation is more probable than the migration of elements
in solutions and posterior synthesis. 相似文献

湘中下寒武统黑色页岩土壤的地球化学特征 总被引：11，自引：0，他引：11
以湘中发育于下寒武统黑色页岩之上的土壤为研究对象,选择安化东坪、烟溪,桃江,宁乡等地的典型土壤及相应成土母岩,利用等离子质谱(ICP-MS)、X射线荧光光谱(XRF)等分析技术,对土壤、成土母岩(黑色页岩)的主量元素和微量元素(包括重金属元素、稀土元素等)进行了较系统的分析测定。结果表明,湘中下寒武统黑色页岩土壤风化作用强烈,风化指数CIA均在73以上。强烈的风化使得土壤具有明显贫CaO、Na2O,而富Al2O3、Fe2O3的化学组成特征。土壤因继承成土母岩(黑色页岩)的特征而富集Mo、Cd、Sn、Sb、U、V、Cr、Co、Ni、Cu、Zn、Tl、Pb、Th等多种重金属元素,其综合富集指数(EI值)平均在3以上,最高达17。地质累计指数(Igeo)评价结果显示,土壤重金属的富集已达到污染程度,土壤存在Cd、Mo、Sb、U、Sn、V、Cu、Tl、Ba等重金属的污染,并以Cd、Mo、Sb等重金属污染最强,达中度至极强污染程度。重金属与主量元素的相关性分析显示,土壤中的重金属主要赋存于黏土矿物和铁氧化物(针铁矿)等矿物相中,其中Ba、Sn、Th、Cu、Sc等主要赋存黏土矿物中;Zn、Ni、Mn、Co、Cd、Tl、Pb等则主要赋存于铁氧化物矿物(针铁矿)中;而Cr、V、Mo、Sb、U等则不受黏土矿物和铁氧化物矿物的控制。此外,不同地区土壤的Zr/Hf、Ta/Nb、Nd/Sm等元素比值相对稳定,依次为36.20、0.085、5.30(n=73),并与相应的成土母岩(黑色页岩)相应值基本一致。土壤与成土母岩具有相同的稀土配分型式,且成土过程中稀土元素不发生明显的分异。微量元素比值和稀土元素特征指示土壤中的重金属来自成土母岩(黑色页岩)本身,为自然污染源。 相似文献

We compared the elemental composition of soil and bedrock samples to determine the extent of chemical weathering and the nature of the soil parent material in alpine soils on Vermont's highest summit. Previously it was unclear whether these soils formed through weathering of bedrock, glacial till, or eolian sediment, or solely through the accumulation of organic matter. In eighteen profiles, no evidence was found to indicate that soils have developed in glacial till, despite evidence that the mountain was completely inundated by the Laurentide Ice Sheet. In contrast, results strongly support the theory that pedogenesis in this environment involves in situ bedrock weathering under a thickening blanket of acidic organic litter. Weathering indices reveal an increase in weathering intensity upwards from the bedrock, and trends of normalized rare earth elements demonstrate a strong similarity between bedrock and soil samples. Leaching has concentrated less mobile elements such as Al, Cr, La, P, Pb, and Ti in soil horizons and removed mobile elements such as Co, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Si, and Zn. X-ray diffraction reveals that chlorite, which is present in all bedrock samples and some saprolites, has weathered completely from upper soil horizons, and that hydrobiotite, vermiculite, kaolinite, gibbsite, and goethite have formed in the soil. Ratios of immobile elements (Ce, Cr, Nb, Ta, Ti, Y, and Zr) in soil and bedrock samples are, however, notably different. Furthermore, the moderately mobile trace elements Cu, Mo, and Sr are actually more abundant in soil than in bedrock, and soil concentrations of Zr are up to an order-of-magnitude greater than in bedrock samples. Together these data argue for at least a modest eolian influx, which may have arrived during the regression of Lake Vermont during the latest Pleistocene or from an outwash source in the immediate post-glacial period. Similarly, increased Ca and Na concentrations in soil samples may signify modern deposition of dust bearing Ca (from agricultural fields) and Na (from roads). 相似文献

The A horizons of Scottish podzols often contain unusually high amounts of EDTA-extractable Ti and V. Five such soils developed on different parent materials were studied, total and EDTA-extractable Ti, V and Fe being determined in the samples and their particle size fractions. The fine sand accounts for 50–80% of the total and extractable amounts of all three elements in the total soil although, in general, both the total and extractable Ti and V concentrations increase with decreasing particle size. Thus the clays contain up to 420 ppm Ti and 27 ppm V extractable with EDTA. The main Ti minerals in the samples are anatase, rutile and ilmenite. Observations by scanning electron microscopy of the surfaces of the minerals show clear evidence of chemical, and possibly physical weathering, processes that may lead to the accumulation of Ti in fine fractions, but not to downward translocation. Vanadium is probably associated with iron oxides and ferromagnesian minerals, from which it is released by weathering and subsequently adsorbed by the clay fraction. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra confirm that most of the V extracted from the samples and their clay fractions is in the vanadyl, (VO)2+, form. 相似文献

Determining weathering rates of soils in China 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
As an important parameter for critical load calculation and soil acidification simulation, weathering rates of soils in China were studied using different methods of calculation. The approaches used were the mass balance approach, the soil mineralogical classification, the total analysis correlation, the PROFILE model, the MAGIC model and a simulated leaching experiment. Since chemical weathering of secondary minerals usually plays a much more important role in neutralizing the long-term acidification of soils in China than that of parent material, soil mineralogy rather than parent rock/material type, which is regarded as the most suitable factor representing weathering rates in Europe, should be adopted as the basis for soil classification. The weathering rate assigned to each soil should also be corrected when the effect of temperature is considered. Due to the variation in experimental conditions, the weathering rates of soils from laboratory experiment may be difficult to compare with field determined rates, and should be adjusted by pH and percolation rate. The comparison of various methods in this study shows that the weathering rates of soils estimated by the PROFILE model coincide well with those from other independent methods such as the dynamic modeling by MAGIC and the modified leaching experiment. The weathering rates were very low (usually lower than 1.0 kEq·ha−1·year−1) for Allites (including Latosol, Lateritic Red Earth, Red Earth, Yellow Earth and Yellow-Brown Earth) in south China and Silalsols (consisting of Dark Brown Forest Soil, Black Soil and Podzolic Soil) in northeast China, and very high for Alpine Soils, Desert Soils and Pedocals in west China. The content of weatherable minerals in soil is the most important factor in determining the spatial distribution of weathering rate in China, while the difference in temperature may be the reason why the weathering rate of soil in northeast China was lower than that in southeast China. 相似文献

The magnetic properties and magnetic mineralogy of a weathering sequence of soils developed on basalt parent material from eastern China, were studied by rock magnetism, X-ray diffraction and soil chemical analyses to establish the connection between mineral magnetic properties and pedogenic development in a subtropical region. The magnetic susceptibility of soils formed on basalt varied greatly and did not increase with the degree of pedogenic development. The frequency-dependent susceptibility (χfd) values of soils ranged from 1.0 to 11.1% and increased with the pedogenic development. Highly significant linear relationship was found between the frequency-dependent susceptibility and the Fed content (R2 = 0.683) and Fed/Fet ratio (R2 = 0.780) in soils, indicating that pedogenic SP ferrimagnetic grains were associated with enrichment of the secondary iron oxide minerals in the weathering process of soil. Rock magnetism analysis showed that the major magnetic carriers in the weakly weathered soil profiles are magnetite and/or maghemite, and the highly developed soil profiles are generally enriched in magnetite/maghemite grains of pedogenic origin and the magnetically hard haematite, indicating that the magnetic component was transformed from a ferrimagnetic phase (magnetite) to antiferromagnetic phase (hematite) during pedogenic development. Results indicated that some of the magnetic parameters of soils, in this case χfd, can be useful for pedogenic comparisons and age correlations in the weathering sequence of soil. It is thus suggested that multiparameter rock magnetic investigations represent a more powerful approach for pedogenesis. 相似文献

Morphological, particle size and mineralogical analyses of three soils indicate that the degree of weathering during pedogenesis has been of a low order. Textural characteristics and mineral content variations arc attributed largely to inheritance from the till parent material, rather than to pedological processes. These observations suggest that frost action as a soil weathering process in this particular environment is minimal. Hydration and dissolution by chelation are discussed as possible alternative mechanisms, but their operation is probably impaired by restricted water availability resulting from the extensive duration of seasonally frozen ground conditions. 相似文献

Immobile element-based weathering estimation methods assume that Zr (or Ti) is an immobile element, and that weathering rates of other elements can be estimated according to the enrichment of Zr in weathered horizons relative to an unweathered parent material. This approach was used to estimate base cation weathering rates for 33 soil profiles on acid-sensitive terrain in north-eastern Alberta. Zirconium generally showed enrichment within the rooting zone, but the deepest (subsoil) samples were not always associated with the lowest Zr concentrations. Weathering rates estimated with the Zr depletion and Pedological Mass Balance (PMB) methods were generally low (ranges: 0-51 and 0-58 mmolc m− 2 yr− 1, respectively); however, low base cation oxide concentrations and heterogeneity within soil profiles complicated weathering rate calculations and net base cation gains were calculated for several (six) sites. Evaluation of the Zr depletion and PMB weathering estimates against those calculated with the process-oriented PROFILE model at a subset (n = 9) of the sites indicated the estimates were poorly related, with PROFILE rates typically being higher. The effects-based emissions management strategy for acid precursors in this region requires spatial coverage of soil properties (including weathering rates) across a large area, but the apparent limitations associated with the immobile element based methods in this region: identifying representative parent soils and deriving weathering rate estimates comparable to more robust methods are arguments against their candidacy for future use. 相似文献

滨海沉积物发育的水稻土时间序列母质均一性判定与特性演变 总被引：8，自引：1，他引：7
时间序列方法是研究土壤发生特性演变的重要途径,而比较土壤变化的重要前提之一是序列中的土壤具有相同的起源,即具有母质的相对均一性。本研究根据史料记载中浙江慈溪海塘修筑年代估计出水稻土的耕作年龄,选择了植稻年龄约为50、300、500、700、1000a以及一个未垦滩涂剖面组成的一个时间序列作为研究对象。利用各种土壤属性参数对该时间序列的母质不连续性(或母质均一性)以及水稻土相对年龄进行了判定和验证。结果表明,时间序列的6个剖面虽然具有微小的差异,但其剖面内与剖面间母质来源相同。在水稻土母质不连续性判定中,去除黏粒的粉粒与粉粒中稳定元素Ti/Zr比值具有较好的指示作用。相对易变的土壤属性参数如碳酸钙、磁化率以及游离铁的剖面分异程度在水稻土相对年龄的判定中具有较好的指示作用。综合这些参数在时间序列中的演化趋势,发现500a剖面与整个序列的变化趋势不相符合,可能是利用历史的差异所致,在相关的性质演变研究中应该从序列中剔除。 相似文献

A weathering sequence with soils developing on volcanic, trachy-basaltic parent materials with ages ranging from 100–115,000 years in the Etna region served as the basis to analyse and calculate the accumulation and stabilisation mechanisms of soil organic matter (SOM), the transformation of pedogenic Fe and Al, the formation and transformation of clay minerals, the weathering indices and, by means of mass-balance calculations, net losses of the main elements. Although the soils were influenced by ash depositions during their development and the soil on the oldest lava flow developed to a great extent under a different climate, leaching of elements and mineral formation and transformation could still be measured. Leaching of major base cations coupled with a corresponding passive enrichment of Al or Fe was a main weathering mechanism and was especially pronounced in the early stages of soil formation due to mineral or glass weathering. With time, the weathering indexes (such as the (K + Ca)/Ti ratio) tend to an asymptotic value: chemical and mineralogical changes between 15,000 and 115,000 years in the A and B horizons were small. In contrast to this, the accumulation of newly formed ITM (imogolite type materials) and ferrihydrite showed a rather linear behaviour with time. Weathering consisted of the dissolution of primary minerals such as plagioclase, pyroxenes or olivine, the breakdown of volcanic glass and the formation of secondary minerals such as ITM and ferrihydrite. The main mineral transformations were volcanic glass ? imogolite ? kaolinite (clay fraction). In the most weathered horizons a very small amount of 2:1 clay minerals could be found that were probably liberated from the inner part of volcanic glass debris. The rate of formation and transformation of 2:1 clay minerals in the investigated soils was very low; no major changes could be observed even after 115,000 years of soil evolution. This can be explained by the addition of ash and the too low precipitation rates. In general, soil erosion played a subordinate role, except possibly for the oldest soils (115,000 years). The youngest soils with an age < 2000 years had the highest accumulation rate of organic C (about 3.0 g C/m2/year). After about 15,000 years, the accumulation rate of organic C in the soils tended to zero. Soil organic carbon reached an asymptotic value with abundances close to 20 kg/m2 after about 20,000 years. In general, the preservation and stabilisation of SOM were due to poorly crystalline Al- and Fe-phases (pyrophosphate-extractable), kaolinite and the clay content. These parameters correlated well with the organic C. Imogolite-type material did not contribute significantly to the stabilisation of soil organic matter. 相似文献

Reconstruction of the original composition and balancing of soils developed on glacial till In this paper a method for the reconstruction of the original composition of soils formed on heterogeneous glacial till is described. As an exampel the original contents of carbonates, iron and clay were calculated in two soils. The soils investigated are “Rostbraunerde” under forest and ?Braunerde”? under meadow. The “Braunerde” has been regularly irrigated with waste water for the last 70 years. The heterogenity of the fine earth of the parent material is caused by the successive deposition of materials with varying particle size distribution as well as in situ cryoclastic weathering of the different rock fragments. The reconstruction was calculated from the relation between the above mentioned weatherable components and less weatherable components in the pleistocenic sediments of Berlin. The sorting grade (So, Muller, 1962), median (Md) of the particle size distribution in the 2–600 γ fraction and the contents of coarse sand, Zr and Ti in the fraction 2-2000 pm were considered as unweatherable. The calculations were performed using multi regression analysis. The influence of the pedogenetic processes of decarbonatisation, acidification, clay formation and clay migration as well as the pedological changes resulting from the waste water irrigation were quantified through the comparison between the calculated original and the measured actual contents of the weatherable components. 相似文献

The uniformity of the parent material between and within five soil profiles representing a typical catenary sequence in upland mid-Wales was investigated using as criteria of uniformity the constancy of the ratios Zr: Sr and quartz: illite in the silt fractions. No lithologic breaks could be detected in the soil profiles. ZrO2, TiO2, quartz, and tri-acid residue were assessed for use as internal standards. TiO2 appeared to be mobile during pedogenesis. Of the other three standards tri-acid residue was considered to be most suitable. 相似文献

Abstract Studies of pedogenesis in basaltic soils within the cool, temperate zone were fairly limited. This study looked at pedogenesis and root development in Norðradalur of the Faroe Islands. To a large extent, soil physical and chemical characteristics were determined by sedimentological rather than pedological processes. Wind erosion plays an important role, and in spite of the homogeneity of the parent material, soil pedogenesis is highly varied. Soils were high in cation exchange capacity (CEC) and generally have a low base saturation, and the major soil‐forming processes were strong weathering, intensive leaching, gleying, and humification. Decomposition of the organic material was good overall. Nitrogen content was low to medium in the mineralogic horizons but high in the peaty horizons. Total phosphorus was within the range typical of soils with a high organic fraction, and previous theories explaining the low carrying capacity regarding grazing as a result of a low nutrient content do not seem to apply. Root densities were as expected for grazing areas, but there was a huge variation in the root diameters as a consequence of microclimatic differences and associated differences in vegetation. 相似文献

Abstract Application of a microwave dissolution technique to soil materials aided by acid digestion procedures has many advantages, but the incomplete dissolution of sandy soils has been noted. The objectives of this study were to modify a microwave oven digestion technique to facilitate the determination of the total elemental content of soils and geologic materials containing greater than 45% sand and apply these data to determine natural separations in parent materials. A microwave dissolution technique using aqua regia (HNO3 and HCl) and hydrofluoric acid (HF) was modified such that the HF is added to the solid 16 hours prior to aqua‐regia addition and subsequent microwave heating. Elemental recoveries were validated using a NBS coal fly ash standard. This procedure was applied to soil core samples representing a wide range of geological and pedological weathering sequences and soil textural classes. Separations in the parent material were determined by observing natural breaks in the elemental concentrations and comparing them to soil morphology data. 相似文献
