Soil samples were fractionated by sedimentation in water and by flotation in heavy liquids to separate complexed and uncomplexed organic and inorganic components. Flocculation of clays in heavy organic liquids was delayed by addition of a surfactant. Heavy liquids and surfactants sorbed by soil components were removed by washing with acetone-water mixtures.In a sample of a red-brown earth, the organic carbon and nitrogen contents were highest in the finest separates. In samples of a ground-water rendzina and a chernozemic soil, the coarse clay and silt separates had the highest organic carbon and nitrogen contents. Organic matter was concentrated in low density fractions in all separates. Carbon/nitrogen ratios were lowest in the finer and heavier separates. Calcium, and to a lesser extent manganese, iron and phosphorus, were concentrated in low density fractions: thus these elements appear to be associated with organic matter and may be important in organo-mineral complex formation. Carbonates, titanium, iron, silicon and potassium were concentrated at the highest densities.Organic fractions < 2.06 g cm?3 from sand size separates were insoluble in alkali and had wide carbon/nitrogen ratios characteristic of plant debris. The light fractions from fine silt and coarse clay separates were more soluble in alkali but showed high ratios of humic to fulvic materials and high absorption at 280 nm. Such materials were considered to be microbial cell debris and were associated with high contents of disordered aluminium and iron oxides and expanding lattice silicates in 1 to 5 μm aggregates.Heavier fractions, particularly of finer clay separates, contained more fulvic and humic materials of a more aliphatic nature than those in < 2.06 g cm?3 fractions. It is suggested that physical sorption on clay surfaces may be more important in these fractions. Ellite and kaolinite were concentrated in medium density fractions, and contents of some iron oxides and titanium minerals were highest in fractions > 2.06 g cm?3. Such minerals plus quartz and feldspars were associated with minor amounts of organic matter or possibly were not involved in organo-mineral associations.  相似文献

An increase in carbon (C) content of one of the more acid Palace Leas meadow hay plots (pH 4.0) is shown to occur in the >63 pm size fraction, while there is a reduction in organic matter associated with clay size fraction relative to a less acid plot (pH 5.8). Total nitrogen (N) content also is higher on the more acid plot, but the increase is smaller than for carbon, and leads to a wider overall C:N ratio in the acid plot. The lower N accumulation in the more acid plot is due to the relative increase in coarse (> 2 mm) organic matter, with a high C:N ratio. The technique used for separation of the particle size fractions does not involve removal of coarse organic matter (> 2 mm) or drying of the soil. In the grassland soils studied, coarse organic matter is a significant component (up to 13%) of total C, yet this fraction is frequently removed before analysis. By not drying the soil, separation into particle size fractions is facilitated.  相似文献

Different types of cation exchange capacity (CEC) and related chemical properties were determined in the main genetic horizons of meadow-chestnut soils in the mesodepressions at the Dzhanybek Research Station of the Institute of Forestry of the Russian Academy of Sciences. In the A horizon, the CEC is mainly due to the organic matter from the clay and coarse fractions, which provides 36% of the soil CEC, and to labile silicates and other clay minerals of the clay fraction. In the Bt horizon, the CEC is mainly provided by the labile minerals of the clay fraction and organic matter of the clay and coarse fractions. The standard soil CEC was found to be significantly higher than the sum of the exchangeable cations in the A horizon and slightly lower than the sum of the exchangeable cations in the Bt and Bca2 horizons. This difference can be related to the fact that the NH4+ ion, which is selectively adsorbed by clay minerals, is used as a displacing cation during the determination of the exchangeable bases, while the Ba2+ ion, which is more selectively adsorbed by organic matter, is used during the determination of the standard CEC. In all the genetic horizons, the experimentally determined value of the standard CEC almost coincides with the CEC value obtained by summing the standard CECs of the different particle-size fractions with account for their contents; hence, this parameter is additive in nature.  相似文献

The organic matter in soils may be stabilized by its interactions with minerals. We have studied such interactions in a Haplic Alisol under forest in which clay and organic matter have migrated from an eluvial A horizon to accumulate in an illuvial B horizon. We have tried to trace the fate of organic matter in these horizons (Ah and Bvt) by determining clay mineralogy, carbon and nitrogen content, hydrolysable amino acids, lignin signature by alkaline CuO oxidation and carbon species by 13C CPMAS NMR of bulk soils and particle‐size fractions. In both horizons, most of the organic matter was present in O–alkyl and methylene structures, each contributing one‐third to the bulk organic matter. In the Ah horizon the ratios of carbon‐to‐nitrogen, and yields for lignin and hydrolysable amino acids decreased as the particle‐size class decreased, but side‐chain oxidation of lignin compounds increased with decreasing particle size. In contrast to previous observations, the proportions of O–alkyl carbon increased as particle size decreased, constituting a major proportion of the organic carbon in the clay‐size fractions from both the Ah and Bvt horizons (≥ 38%), while proportions of methylene carbon decreased. Illite was the dominant mineral in the fraction ≤ 6 μm, whereas the mobile fine clay fraction (<0.2 μm) was rich in smectites – minerals with large surface areas. Our results support the hypothesis that potentially labile organic matter, such as O–alkyl carbon typically present in polysaccharides, may be stabilized against further degradation in organomineral complexes.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Sugarcane is a strategic commodity in Indonesia. It is usually raised in a monoculture system. There is a lack of information about the effects of extended sugarcane monoculture on the soil carbon fraction. The aim of this study was to determine the relative changes in the soil organic C fractions in response to the duration of sugarcane monoculture on Entisols, Inceptisols, and Vertisols. The measured variables were the percentages of sand, silt, and clay, organic matter (OM), total nitrogen (TN), pH (H2O), cation exchange capacity (CEC), NH4 +, NO3 -, labile carbon fraction (soil carbon mineralization (C-Min), soil microbial carbon (C-Mic), and carbon particulate organic matter (C-POM)), and stable carbon fraction (humic and fulvic acids). Soil type with sugarcane monoculture period had significant influences on the percentages of clay, sand, silt, CEC, and pH (H2O). Soil type and sugarcane monoculture period had no apparent significant effect on C-Min or C-POM but did significantly influence C-Mic. The humic and fulvic acid levels in all three soil types were affected by the duration of sugarcane monoculture. To establish the impact of long-term sugarcane monoculture on the physicochemical properties of soils with various textures, it is more appropriate to measure the soil stable carbon fractions such as humic and fulvic acid rather than the soil labile carbon fractions such as C-Min, C-POM, or C-Mic.  相似文献

A novel approach to the study of organic-matter distribution in soil microaggregates (<20 μm) using high-energy ultraviolet (UV) radiation in the presence of oxygen (photo-oxidation) is reported. The method quantitatively destroyed complex organic materials through oxidation, even in the presence of clay, provided the organic materials were directly exposed to the UV radiation. Photo-oxidation of clay and silt fractions for periods up to 8 h demonstrated that a considerable proportion of the organic matter was physically protected within clay- and silt-sized aggregates. In some clay fractions, up to 23% of the organic carbon could be considered as physically protected whereas in silt fractions this was as high as 36%. Infrared spectroscopy demonstrated that the materials external to both clay- and silt-sized aggregates were largely proteinaecous in nature, while the materials in the interior of the aggregates resembled humic acids. These humic materials appeared to be physically shielded against photo-oxidation, rather than being chemically recalcitrant. Using the clay- and silt-sized fractions from one soil, 14C accelerator mass spectrometry demonstrated that, although both clay and silt fractions contained essentially modern carbon, after 4 h of photo-oxidation much older organic carbon with a mean resonance time (MRT) of between 200±80 and 320±80 years before the present (BP) remained. This protection from photo-oxidation, therefore, appears to mirror the process which physically protects organic substances in soils against microbial degradation. Photo-oxidation of the clay-plus-silt fractions also resulted in a considerable reduction in particle size as the organic-cementing agents, consisting of proteinaecous and humic materials, were oxidized. Using data from the photo-oxidation method along with infrared spectroscopy, radiocarbon dating and scanning electron microscopy, a simple model is proposed that spatially relates the various organic structures present to their positions in the mineral aggregates.  相似文献

Abstract

Clearing and cultivation in crusting soils from Mazowe (Zimbabwe) has lead to severe changes in most physico‐chemical characteristics related to the concentration and distribution patterns of plant nutrients and to the total amount of soil organic matter. Nevertheless, the concentration of the different humus fractions showed lower intensity changes, as did the mineralization rates of the organic matter. The most significant effects of cultivation on the soil chemical characteristics coincided with those considered to favor clay dispersion and crusting phenomena, including generalized desaturation of the exchange complex and losses of divalent ions with a potential bridging effect between soil particles. Concerning the soil organic matter, the humic acid tended to concentrate in the cultivated soils as a probable consequence of selective biodegradation of the other humic fractions. The composition and activity of soil humus suggest low‐performance organo‐mineral interactions: in these soils the active turnover of the plant wastes is not regulated by intense physico‐chemical interactions with the soil mineral fractions, or by physical encapsulation of organic particles. In consequence, the mineralization rates were relatively constant in the soils studied and unrelated to soil organic matter concentration. The results suggests that there is a possibility to revert the early degradation stages of these soils through a rational management of suitable amounts of crop wastes.  相似文献

Large areas in eastern Germany have been subjected to substantial airborne contamination by fly ash, soot and lignite dust. The objective of the study was to detect the input of lignite-derived airborne contamination into forest soils and to examine the chemical and structural characteristics of the soil organic matter, consisting of natural humic material and lignite-derived carbon in reforested immature mine soils. The mine soil developed on sandy overburden material that was excavated in open-cast lignite mines and had been relocated and deposited at a spoil bank. Samples were taken from the forest floor (L, Oh), the humic surface horizon (Ai), and the parent substrate (Cv) of an immature mine soil under a 25-year-old red oak (Quercus rubra), situated close to a briquette factory. The conceptual approach includes analyses of bulk soil as well as particle-size fractions for C and N contents, magnetic susceptibility, radiocarbon age and chemical structure by using 13C CPMAS NMR spectroscopy. High magnetic susceptibility of the Oh and Ai horizon is the result of airborne contamination by lignite-derived ash. Fly ash contamination consisting of ferrimagnetic minerals contributes mainly to the <20 μm fractions. In the Oh and Ai horizon, 44% and 46% of the C was found to be of anthropogenic origin. Structural information indicates that lignite-derived dust and/or soot are present in the coarse particle size fractions (6.3-200 μm). Anthropogenic C increased the C content as well as the contribution of alkyl and aromatic C species in the organic matter.  相似文献

Samples described in the previous paper were analyzed for humus composition by the method of Kumada el al,, elementary composition of humic acids, nitrogen distribution among humic acid, fulvic acid, and humin, and organic matter composition by the modified Waksman method. The samples obtained by physical fractionation from each horizon of Higashiyama soil were as follows: f1 and f2 from the L layer, f1, f2 and f3 from the F layer, f1 f2, sand, silt, and clay fractions from the H-A and A horizons.

With the progress of decomposition, the following tendencies were rather clearly observed.

The extraction ratio of soluble humus, amounts of humic acid and fulvic acid, and PQ, value tended to increase with some exceptions. The degree of humification of humic acid proceeded. Most humic acids belonged to the Rp type, but those of the clay fractions belonged to the B type.

As for the elementary composition of humic acid, transitional changes from the Lf1 to the clay fraction of the A horizon were observed. But differences in elementary composition among humic acids were far less, compared with those among whole fractions.

Nitrogen contents in humic, fulvic, and humin fractions increased with the progress of decomposition and humiliation, and the largest relative increase was found in fulvic acid nitrogen.

According to the modified Waksman's method, the amounts of residues and protein increased, while the total amounts of each extract, except for the HCl extract, and the amounts of sugars and starch, phenolic substances, hemicelluloses and pectin, and cellulose decreased. Sugars and starch comprised only a small portion of the hot water extract, and polyphenols substances comparable to sugars and starch were also found in the extract. Hemicelluloses and pectin accounted for only about one-half of the HCl extract. Several characteristic differences in the elementary composition of extracts and residues were found.

Pheopigments existed in benzene-ethanol extracts and their amounts seemed to decrease from Lf1 to Ff2.  相似文献

Rock fragments in soil can contain significant amounts of organic carbon. We investigated the nature and dynamics of organic matter in rock fragments in the upper horizons of a forest soil derived from sandstone and compared them with the fine earth fraction (<2 mm). The organic C content and its distribution among humic, humin and non‐humic fractions, as well as the isotopic signatures (Δ14C and δ13C) of organic carbon and of CO2 produced during incubation of samples, all show that altered rock fragments contain a dynamic component of the carbon cycle. Rock fragments, especially the highly altered ones, contributed 4.5% to the total organic C content in the soil. The bulk organic matter in both fine earth and highly altered rock fragments in the A1 horizon contained significant amounts of recent C (bomb 14C), indicating that most of this C is cycled quickly in both fractions. In the A horizons, the mean residence times of humic substances from highly altered rock fragments were shorter than those of the humic substances isolated in the fine earth. Values of Δ14C of the CO2 produced during basal respiration confirmed the heterogeneity, complexity and dynamic nature of the organic matter of these rock fragments. The weak 14C signatures of humic substances from the slightly altered rock fragments confirmed the importance of weathering in establishing and improving the interactions between rock fragments and surrounding soil. The progressive enrichment in 13C from components with high‐14C (more recent) to low‐14C (older) indicated that biological activity occurred in both the fine and the coarse fractions. Hence the microflora utilizes energy sources contained in all the soil compartments, and rock fragments are chemically and biologically active in soil, where they form a continuum with the fine earth.  相似文献

The intensive use for over 100 years of copper sulphate (Bordeaux mixture) to fight mildew in vineyards has led to a substantial accumulation of copper (Cu) in surface soils. To assess the effects of such large concentrations, the surface soils of 10 Burgundy vineyards were sampled and analysed for total organic matter (carbon and nitrogen) and metal (copper and iron) contents. Physical (i.e. size fractionation) and chemical (sequential extraction) methods were used to determine the distribution of these elements. The most Cu‐contaminated plots showed the largest accumulation of organic carbon and Cu in the coarse sand and fine sand fractions. Copper was strongly correlated with organic carbon and organic nitrogen in the coarse sand fraction and with organic nitrogen in the fine sand fraction. Copper was also highly correlated with both Fe and organic nitrogen in the clay fraction but not significantly with organic carbon. The sequential extraction showed that Cu was bound mainly to the Fe oxides. However, in the most Cu‐contaminated plots, a part of added Cu was bound to organic matter. This study suggests that Cu protected indirectly the organic matter present in the coarse fractions against biodegradation, and therefore modified the distribution of organic carbon among the particle‐size fractions. Iron appeared as the main factor responsible for Cu accumulation in the clay fraction, mainly through inclusion of Cu in Fe oxyhydroxides and possibly in clay–humus complexes.  相似文献

Data on the composition and properties of soil adsorption complex in the virgin and ameliorated meadow-chestnut soils in the northern Caspian region are generalized. It is shown that the experimental values of the effective CEC in the A1 horizon are lower than those calculated on the basis of data on the organic matter content and the content and mineral composition of fine fractions. We explain this discrepancy by the interactions between the organic matter and clay minerals resulting in the blocking of a part of the exchangeable positions. In the BC horizon, the experimental values of the effective CEC are twice as high as those calculated from the data on the amount of labile clay minerals in fine fractions. This can be explained by the presence of sorption centers on poorly crystallized illites and chlorites in the clay fraction and by the partial aggregation of clay material into coarser fractions that cannot be destroyed upon the separation of clay fractions by the Aidinyan procedure, which leads to the underestimation of the clay content.  相似文献

Agroforestry systems have the potential to increase sequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) as soil organic carbon (SOC) because of the increased rates of organic matter addition and retention. However, few studies have characterized the relative stability of sequestered SOC in soil. We characterized SOC storage in aggregate size and chemical stability classes to estimate the relative stability of SOC pools after the addition of Leucaena-KX2 pruning residues (mulch) from 2006 to 2008 in a shaded coffee agroforestry system in Hawaii. Soil samples were separated by microaggregate isolation, density flotation and dispersion, and acid hydrolysis, resulting in five distinct fractions that differed in relative stability: coarse particulate organic matter (POM), fine POM, microaggregate-protected POM, silt + clay hydrolyzable soil organic matter (SOM), and silt + clay non-hydrolyzable SOM. With mulch addition, the fine POM fraction increased. There was also a shift in the proportion of SOC to more stable silt + clay fractions. In the absence of mulch there was no significant change in SOC fractions. Given that the turnover time of SOC in silt + clay fractions is on the order of decades to centuries, the potential benefits of active shade management and mulching compensate for the loss of C sequestration in tree biomass from pollarding.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of land‐use and forest cover depletion on the distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) within particle‐size fractions in a volcanic soil. Emphasis was given to the thermal properties of soils. Six representative sites in Mexico were selected in an area dominated by Andosols: a grassland site, four forested sites with different levels of degradation and an agricultural site. Soils were fractionated using ultrasonic energy until complete dispersion was achieved. The particle‐size fractions were coarse sand, fine sand, silt, clay and particulate organic matter from the coarse sand sized fraction (POM‐CS) and fine sand (POM‐FS). Soil organic carbon decreased by 70% after forest conversion to cropland and long‐term cultivation; forest cover loss resulted in a decrease in SOC of up to 60%. The grassland soil contained 45% more SOC than the cropland one. Soil organic carbon was mainly associated with the silt‐size fraction; the most sensitive fractions to land‐use change and forest cover depletion were POM followed by SOC associated with the silt and clay‐sized fractions. Particulate organic matter can be used as an early indicator of SOC loss. The C lost from the clay and silt‐sized fractions was thermally labile; therefore, the SOC stored in the more degraded forest soils was more recalcitrant (thermally resistant). Only the transformation of forest to agricultural land produced a similar loss of thermally stable C associated with the silt‐sized fraction.  相似文献

Abstract

This study was developed on 52 soil profiles, 61 surface diagnostic horizons, and 26 subsurface diagnostic horizons classified according to the Soil Taxonomy and Brazilian Soil Classification System (SiBCS) as Mollisols (Chernossolos), Spodosols (Espodossolos), Entisols (Gleissolos), Oxisols (Latossolos), and Histosols (Organossolos). The objective was to quantify the carbon (C) in organic matter fractions and to correlate it with soil chemical attributes. Soil organic matter was fractionated into fulvic acids (C‐FAF), humic acids (C‐HAF), and humin (C‐HUM), and the ratios C‐HAF/C‐FAF and AE (alkaline extract)/C‐HUM were calculated. Humin was the predominant fraction in Mollisols and Oxisols, which showed values of AE/C‐HUM and C‐HAF/C‐FAF lower than 1.0. The humin fraction was also predominant in surface horizons of Spodosols and Entisols, whereas a higher content of C‐FAF and C‐FAH was observed in the subsurface horizons, with values higher than 1.5 for the AE/C‐HUM ratio. C‐HAF was predominant in the Histosols, and C‐HAF/C‐FAF ratio values were higher than 2.0. The highest correlation values with soil attributes were observed for C‐HAF, C‐HUM, and total organic C with pH, sum of bases, and cation exchange capacity. The differences in humic substances distribution was a useful parameter to characterize soil orders in the Brazilian soil classification system and to understand pedogenic processes.  相似文献

Abstract

Chemical properties of hydrophobic acid (HoA) fractions in water-soluble organic matter in soil and water are concerned with its interactions with mineral soil surfaces and organic pollutants. In 2004 we examined the seasonal and vertical changes in chemical properties of the HoA fraction in a Cambisol profile and compared these properties with those in the HoA fraction of an adjacent stream (aquatic humic substances) in a temperate forested watershed using high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) and 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The HoA fractions from Oi, Oe/Oa, A and B horizon soils in summer had lower O-alkyl C proportions than those recorded in samples in other seasons. The proportions of aromatic C in HoA fractions from A and B horizons were highest in summer. These seasonal variations were less significant than variations with soil depth. O-alkyl C proportions in HoA fractions decreased with increasing soil depth from the Oi to the A horizon. The HoA fractions from the B horizon showed a higher alkyl C proportion than samples from other horizons in winter and spring. These changes with soil depth from the Oi to A horizons might result from selective utilization of carbohydrate carbon by microorganisms, whereas those in the B horizon may result from sorption to mineral surfaces. The HoA fractions in the stream were similar in relative molecular weight, distribution of each type of proton and carbon species in HoA fractions from the B horizon, whereas stream HoA fractions collected in summer would be derived from organic horizons. This indicated that vertical changes in the chemical properties of HoA fractions in soil and pathways of water to the stream would largely affect the chemical properties of HoA fractions in the stream.  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

Tracer levels of 109Cd were used to study the adsorption and desorption of Cd by synthetic and natural organo—clay complexes. Synthetic organo—clay complexes were made by adsorbing humic acid extracted from soil to various forms of < 2 μm diameter montmorillonite (Na, Ca, Al, and Fe saturated and Ca-montmorillonite coated with Al or Fe hydroxide). Natural organo—clay complexes were fractionated from the clay fraction of a Captina silt loam by density-gradient centrifugation in a large-scale zonal rotor.To evaluate the influence of humic acid on adsorption of Cd, Cd was adsorbed to the various forms of montmorillonite before and after humic acid adsorption. No appreciable difference in Cd adsorption was noted except in the case where montmorillonite was coated with Al or Fe hydroxides. Cadmium was found to be strongly bonded to clays coated with Al or Fe hydroxides; however, Cd adsorption to these clays after humic acid adsorption was considerably less. Data indicated Cd and humic acid adsorption sites on Al or Fe coated clays were either identical or prior adsorption of humic acid simply covered available Cd sites.Cadmium adsorption to clay density fractions showed that greatest adsorption was to fractions containing high quantities of organic matter or sesquioxides. Desorption of Cd with 0.01 M Ca (NO3)2 showed that Cd was adsorbed more tenaciously to the sesquioxides than organo—clay fractions.  相似文献

Investigations regarding carbon dynamics and bioturbation in Mollisols Bioturbation in Mollisols (mollic horizons) is not really leading to a homogenisation of C-atoms of different 14C-ages. Age versus depth curves indicate rather flatly stretched or steeper shapes, dependent on either slow development via an extended pararendzina phase or faster growth of the mollic epipedon under more half bog like conditions. 291 14C-dates of Mollisols versus depth of soil result in one mutual and several individualized regression lines for the countries of origin with variable coefficients of X. Highest levels of X indicate steepest increase of age towards depth, i.e. weakest bioturbation in the sense of homogenization. When eliminating 16 sand covered Mollisol samples from Tunisia 275 dates remain, which, plotted as age/profile maximum age versus depth, produce regressions of the date collectives of different countries in relation to organic matter decomposition. The steepest regression line indicates maximization of old carbon species and most intensive decomposition of the young organic matter; the flat ones stand for slowed down decomposition. Comparative 14C-dates of texture fractions of the aquic Hapludolls ?Asel”? and ?Söllingen”? show age maxima in the middle clay and fine clay fractions. 14C-dating of the body – C of layerwise collected earthworms as well as of fillings of fossil rainworm or Citellus tracks reveal for the worm – C exclusively recent bomb – C (> 100% NBS) with youngest C species in the top soil and in the greatest depth of the soil profile. The fossil rainworm and Citellus track-fillings are above the measured total soil age. Studies of the decomposition of organic matter from different soil depth indicate in case of the almost neutral agricultural soil ?Söllingen”? expectedly lowest CO2-release from the organo-mineralically stabilized soil layer at maximum depth (in mgC/100 g soil as well as in mg C/g Corg). In case of the more acid forest soil ?Asel”? the same trend of diminishing CO2 release with depth prevails at normal soil-pH as well as under condition of uniformly adjusted pH to 7.5–8.3. The two deepest layers (80–100 cm) fall of the trend by higher rates of decomposition. The unfavorable ratio of organic C (0.139%) versus carbonate-C (1.54%) under synchroneous pH-increase is considered responsible.  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
