不同施肥处理对土壤活性有机碳和甲烷排放的影响

通过采集田间试验区连续3a施入有机肥的稻田耕层土壤,分析土壤中微生物量碳(MBC)、水溶性有机碳(DOC)、易氧化有机碳(ROC)和可矿化有机碳(readily mineralizable carbon,RMC)等活性有机碳的含量,稻田甲烷(CH_4)的排放通量,探讨施用有机肥的土壤活性有机碳变化及与CH_4排放的关系。研究结果显示:(1)施有机肥对土壤中的活性有机碳均有一定的促进作用。3a不同施肥处理土壤中DOC、ROC、MBC和RMC的平均含量分别为383.6、2501.2、640.4 mg/kg和291.7 mg/kg。3a施猪粪(猪粪+化肥,PM)、鸡粪(鸡粪+化肥,CM)和稻草(稻草+化肥,RS)的DOC的含量分别比化肥(CF)处理增加5.6%、6.7%和19.3%,ROC的含量分别比CF增加6.6%、8.4%和9.8%;MBC含量分别比CF增加5.1%、14.8%和21.5%,RMC增加6.8%、22.0%和33.9%。不同施肥处理的稻田土壤活性有机碳为分蘖期高于成熟期。(2)施肥处理显著增加稻田CH_4排放,CH_4分蘖期的排放通量是成熟期的143倍,3a PM、CM和RS处理的CH_4排放分别比CF处理增加37.0%(P0.05)、92.7%(P0.05)和99.4%(P0.05)。(3)不同施肥处理的DOC、ROC、MBC和RMC含量与CH_4排放通量均存在显著正相关关系,ROC与CH_4排放的相关系数最高,为0.754(P0.01),且4种有机碳间关系密切。稻田分蘖期土壤中的活性有机碳与稻田CH_4排放呈显著正相关关系。(4)综合分析,在4种有机碳中,土壤中ROC和MBC的含量直接影响CH_4排放。     

Acidity controls on dissolved organic carbon mobility in organic soils

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in surface waters have increased across much of Europe and North America, with implications for the terrestrial carbon balance, aquatic ecosystem functioning, water treatment costs and human health. Over the past decade, many hypotheses have been put forward to explain this phenomenon, from changing climate and land management to eutrophication and acid deposition. Resolution of this debate has been hindered by a reliance on correlative analyses of time series data, and a lack of robust experimental testing of proposed mechanisms. In a 4 year, four‐site replicated field experiment involving both acidifying and deacidifying treatments, we tested the hypothesis that DOC leaching was previously suppressed by high levels of soil acidity in peat and organo‐mineral soils, and therefore that observed DOC increases a consequence of decreasing soil acidity. We observed a consistent, positive relationship between DOC and acidity change at all sites. Responses were described by similar hyperbolic relationships between standardized changes in DOC and hydrogen ion concentrations at all sites, suggesting potentially general applicability. These relationships explained a substantial proportion of observed changes in peak DOC concentrations in nearby monitoring streams, and application to a UK‐wide upland soil pH dataset suggests that recovery from acidification alone could have led to soil solution DOC increases in the range 46–126% by habitat type since 1978. Our findings raise the possibility that changing soil acidity may have wider impacts on ecosystem carbon balances. Decreasing sulphur deposition may be accelerating terrestrial carbon loss, and returning surface waters to a natural, high‐DOC condition.

有机肥中可溶性有机碳、氮含量及其特性

测定了7种不同种类、不同腐熟程度有机肥中可溶性有机氮（SON）和可溶性有机碳（SOC）的含量,结果表明：有机肥的水和0．01mol／LCaCl2溶液提取液中SON含量分别平均为105．2mg／L和91．6mg／L;每千克干样平均含SON分别为1188mg和1037mg;SON占可溶性总氮（TSN）和全氮（TN）的比例分别在70．5％～74．7％和4．3％～4．9％之间。水和0．01mol／LCaCl2溶液提取液中SOC含量分别平均为695mg／L和622mg／L;每千克干样平均含SOC分别为7873mg和7054mg;SOC占有机肥有机碳（TOC）比例分别平均为2．1％和1．9％;SOC／SON平均分别为6．7和6．9。SON与SOC间的相关性较高,SON与NO3^--N含量呈现负相关关系。有机肥料中的可溶性氮素绝大部分以SON形式存在,如此高的SON和SOC含量可能会成为氮、碳养分流失和环境污染的潜在来源。     

土壤有机质概念和分组技术研究进展

土壤有机质一直是土壤学研究领域的重点,在过去的50年里,对土壤质量可持续性观念的增强和寻找快速判断人为因素对土壤质量影响方向指标的强烈愿望导致了土壤有机质的研究重点发生了急剧变化：对农业措施反映慢的土壤腐殖质类物质的研究正在退出土壤有机质研究领域,而侧重点逐渐转向了土壤中未受微生物作用或正在受微生物降解的有机残体;也出现了新的土壤有机质研究概念和对应测试手段：土壤有机质的比重分组、与有机质结合的土壤颗粒大小分组、土壤团聚体中的POM和iPOM以及土壤水溶性有机质和微生物体C等概念和测试手段被相继提了出来,土壤有机质的研究重点正在从土壤微生物的作用产物(腐殖质)向土壤微生物作用前的、具有部分生物活性的有机质(轻组有机质、砂粒组和粗粉砂粒组中的有机质、POM和iPOM)和完全具有生物活性的有机质(微生物体C和水溶性有机质)转移,这一过程与土壤有机质概念的拓展密不可分。     

Biocatalysis in organic media

The potentials of using organic reaction media in biotechnological conversions have already been demonstrated in several experimental studies. Examples of possible advantages are: possibility of higher substrate and/or product concentrations, favorable shift of reaction equilibria, reduced substrate and/or product inhibition, and facilitated product recovery. Especially water/organic solvent two-phase systems seem to possess several of these advantages. The solvent type will highly affect kinetics and stability of the (immobilized) biocatalyst, solubility and partitioning of reactants/products, and product recovery. Therefore the solvent choice can have a large influence on the economics of the two-liquid-phase biocatalytic process. Immobilization of the biocatalyst may be useful to provide protection against denaturating solvent effects. The polarity of the employed support material will also be decisive for the partitioning of substrates and products among the various phases.

A classification of biphasic systems, which is based on the possible types of theoretical concentration profiles and aqueous phase configurations, is discussed. Reversed micelles and aqueous two-liquid-phase systems can be considered as special cases. The design of two-liquid-phase bioreactors is dependent on the state of the biocatalyst, free or immobilized, and on the necessity for emulsification of one of the two liquid phases in the other. Many mass-transfer resistances, e.g. across the liquid/liquid interface, in the aqueous phase, across the liquid/solid interface, and in the biocatalyst phase, can limit the overall reaction rate. The epoxidation of alkenes in water/solvent two-phase systems is discussed to give an example of the scope of biotechnological processes that is obtained by using organic media. Finally, a design calculation of a packed-bed organic-liquid-phasel immobilized-biocatalyst reactor for the epoxidation of propene is given to illustrate some of the above aspects.     

Enzyme thermoinactivation in anhydrous organic solvents

Three unrelated enzymes (ribonuclease, chymotrypsin, and lysozyme) display markedly enhanced thermostability in anhydrous organic solvents compared to that in aqueous solution. At 110-145 degrees C in nonaqueous media all three enzymes inactivate due to heat-induced protein aggregation, as determined by gel filtration chromatography. Using bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A as a model, it has been established that enzymes are much more thermostable in hydrophobic solvents (shown to be essentially inert with respect to their interaction with the protein) than in hydrophilic ones (shown to strip water from the enzyme). The heat-induced aggregates of ribonuclease were characterized as both physically associated and chemically crosslinked protein agglomerates, with the latter being in part due to transamidation and intermolecular disulfide interchange reactions. The thermal denaturation of ribonuclease in neat organic solvents has been examined by means of differential scanning calorimetry. In hydrophobic solvents, the enzyme exhibits greatly enhanced thermal denaturation temperatures (T(m) values as high as 124 degrees C) compared to aqueous solution. The thermostability of ribonuclease towards heat-induced denaturation and aggregation decreases as the water content of the protein powder increases. The experimental data obtained suggest that enzymes are extremely thermostable in anhydrous organic solvents due to their conformational rigidity in the dehydrated state and their resistance to nearly all the covalent reactions causing irreversible thermoinactivation of enzymes in aqueous solution.     

接种蚯蚓对有机茶园土壤结构及有机碳库的影响

为探讨接种蚯蚓对有机茶园土壤团聚体、孔隙分布及有机碳库的影响,设置375条/m²,250条/m²,125条/m²三种蚯蚓投放密度,将威廉腔环蚓接种于信阳有机茶园土壤中。结果表明：接种蚯蚓能显著提升>2mm大团聚体的比例而降低<0.25mm粒径的微团聚体的比例;提高水稳性小团聚体(0.25mm≤d≤2mm)比例,但对水稳性大团聚体d>2mm的影响不显著;高密度蚯蚓处理平均重量直径(MWD),平均几何直径(NWD)以及分型维数(D),团聚体破坏率(PAD)显著高于其他密度处理及对照(CK)。接种蚯蚓使得结构性孔隙(土壤颗粒间和团聚体间孔隙)所占比重增加,其中以团聚体间孔隙增加最为显著,其次为颗粒间孔隙,对由粘粒及矿物层间形成的毛管孔隙分布无显著影响;随着接种密度的增加,颗粒间孔隙度变化不显著而团聚体间孔隙度的相对值和绝对值均显著增加。添加蚯蚓能显著增加土壤活性有机库总量。接种密度的增加对活性有机碳库总量影响不大,但对土壤呼吸速率提升较多,故从温室气体排放角度考虑低接种密度更合适。可见,有机茶园中少量接种蚯蚓...     

Loss-on-ignition estimates of organic matter and relationships to organic carbon in fluvial bed sediments

Fluvial bed sediments represent an important sink and source for a variety of organic and inorganic compounds. Their most important constituent is organic matter (OM) and its primary component organic carbon (OC). Few studies have been conducted in fluvial environments examining bed-associated OM or OC. This is surprising given the recent interest in global carbon cycling and the importance of bed-associated organics as ecosystem energy sources. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between OM, determined by loss-on-ignition (LOI), and OC in fluvial bed sediments determined by a dry combustion analyzer. The wide adoption of the LOI method in soil science reflects its ease of use, it is inexpensive, it is rapid, requires no specialized training, and strong statistical relationships commonly exist between OM and OC estimated by standard dry combustion procedures. Regression models were developed between OC and OM for six bed sediment size fractions (≤2.0 mm) for 113 sample sites in a tropical stream on Oahu, Hawaii. All models were highly significant (p < 0.0001), with coefficients of determination ranging from 35 to 79%. Measurement of LOI explained 64% of the variation in OC for all grouped data. The black-box LOI approach may be useful for rapid reconnaissance surveys of drainage systems. Examination of OM to OC conversion factors for Manoa bed sediments indicates that values typically observed in the soils literature (1.7–2.2) are far too low. Values of OM/OC were found to increase with increasing grain size, and decrease with increasing LOI percentage. Conversion factors obtained for grouped data had a mean of 14.9, a coefficient of variation of 21%, and a range of values between 6.2 and 27.4. It is suggested that these high conversion factors reflect significant water loss by dehydration of Fe, Al, and Mn oxides at a muffle furnace temperature of 450 °C. Therefore, the blind application of conversion factors developed from soils should be avoided when converting from OM to OC for fluvial bed sediments.

红壤侵蚀地不同人工恢复林对土壤总有机碳和活性有机碳的影响

土壤有机碳尤其是活性有机碳可快速反映土壤肥力和土壤质量的恢复程度。研究了南方红壤侵蚀地3种典型人工恢复林(马尾松与阔叶复层林(Pinus massoniana-broadleaved multiple layer forest(PB))、木荷与马尾松混交林(Schima superba-Pinus massoniana mixed forest(SP))、阔叶混交林(broad-leaved mixed forest(BF)))土壤(0—60 cm)总有机碳和不同活性有机碳的垂直分布特征及其差异。结果表明:不同恢复林分土壤总有机碳(SOC)含量和有机碳储量均表现为PBSPBF,均随土层深度的增加而逐渐降低;土壤表层有机碳富集系数为0.49—0.55,表明表层土壤具有较高的有机碳恢复水平和保持强度。不同林分土壤易氧化有机碳(ROC)、水溶性有机碳(DOC)和微生物量碳(MBC)含量变化范围为0.92—9.17 g/kg、535.89—800.46 mg/kg和27.24—261.31 mg/kg,且均随土层深度的增加而降低,土壤活性有机碳含量总体以BF较高。土壤活性有机碳分配比例以ROC/SOC最高,DOC/SOC次之,MBC/SOC最低,且随土层深度的增加,ROC/SOC的值呈逐渐降低趋势,DOC/SOC的值却呈逐渐升高趋势,MBC/SOC(微生物熵)则变化规律不明显;不同林分间土壤活性有机碳分配比例以BF最高,表明阔叶混交林更有利于活性碳的积累。因此,对于红壤侵蚀地森林恢复初期,可适当密植和立体种植,以提高土壤碳储量和土壤肥力,并在马尾松等先锋树种林分中补植阔叶树种,以增加土壤活性有机碳含量,从而有利于退化生态系统土壤速效养分和土壤功能的快速恢复。     

Long-term tillage effects on soil organic carbon and dissolved organic carbon in a purple paddy soil of Southwest China

The impact of conservation tillage practices on soil carbon has been of great interest in recent years. Conservation tillage might have the potential to enhance soil carbon accumulation and alter the depth distribution of soil carbon compared to conventional tillage based systems. Changes in the soil organic carbon (SOC) as influenced by tillage, are more noticeable under long-term rather than short-term tillage practices. The objective of this study was to determine the impacts of long-term tillage on SOC and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) status after 19 years of four tillage treatments in a Hydragric Anthrosol. In this experiment four tillage systems included conventional tillage with rotation of rice and winter fallow system (CTF), conventional tillage with rotation of rice and rape system (CTR), no-till and ridge culture with rotation of rice and rape system (NT) and tillage and ridge culture with rotation of rice and rape system (TR). Soils were sampled in the spring of 2009 and sectioned into 0–10, 10–20, 20–30, 30–40, 40–50 and 50–60 cm depth, respectively.Tillage effect on SOC was observed, and SOC concentrations were much larger under NT than the other three tillage methods in all soil depths from 0 to 60 cm. The mean SOC concentration at 0–60 cm soil depth followed the sequence: NT (22.74 g kg^?1) > CTF (14.57 g kg^?1) > TR (13.10 g kg^?1) > CTR (11.92 g kg^?1). SOC concentrations under NT were significantly higher than TR and CTR (P < 0.01), and higher than CTF treatment (P < 0.05). The SOC storage was calculated on equivalent soil mass basis. Results showed that the highest SOC storage at 0–60 cm depth presented in NT, which was 158.52 Mg C ha^?1, followed by CTF (106.74 Mg C ha^?1), TR (93.11 Mg C ha^?1) and CTR (88.60 Mg C ha^?1). Compared with conventional tillage (CTF), the total SOC storage in NT increased by 48.51%, but decreased by 16.99% and 12.77% under CTR and TR treatments, respectively. The effect of tillage on DOC was significant at 0–10 cm soil layer, and DOC concentration was much higher under CTF than the other three treatments (P < 0.01). Throughout 0–60 cm soil depth, DOC concentrations were 32.92, 32.63, 26.79 and 22.10 mg kg^?1 under NT, CTF, CTR and TR, and the differences among the four treatments were not significant (P > 0.05). In conclusion, NT increased SOC concentration and storage compared to conventional tillage operation but not for DOC.

Peptide synthesis using proteases dissolved in organic solvents

Organic solvent-soluble -chymotrypsin (CT) and subtilisin Carlsberg (SC) are effective catalysts for peptide synthesis in homogeneous organic solutions. The soluble enzymes have values of k_cat/K_m for the reaction of N-Bz-L-Tyr-OEt with L-Leu-NH₂ to yield the dipeptide N-Bz-L-Tyr-L-Leu-NH₂ that are over 3 orders of magnitude higher than their suspended counterparts in isooctane (containing 30% (v/v) tetrahydrofuran (THF) to aid in substrate solubility). Both enzymes are substantially more active in hydrophobic organic solvents than hydrophilic solvents. Adding small concentrations of water (<0.2% and 1% (v/v) in isooctane-THF and ethyl acetate, respectively) results in up to a 150-fold activation of -chymotrypsin-catalyzed peptide synthesis. Importantly, added water does not promote hydrolysis in either isooctane-THF or ethyl acetate; thus, -chymotrypsin is highly selective toward peptide synthesis in the nearly anhydrous organic solutions. Unlike CT, the activation of subtilisin Carlsberg upon partial hydration of isooctane-THF or ethyl acetate was not significant and actually resulted in substantial hydrolysis. Using -chymotrypsin, a variety of tripeptides were produced from dipeptide amino acid esters. Reactivity of D-amino acid amides as acyl acceptors and partially unblocked amino acid acyl donors further expands the generality of the use of organic solvent-soluble enzymes as peptide synthesis catalysts.     

A meta-analysis on pyrogenic organic matter induced priming effect

Pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) is considered an important soil carbon (C) sink. However, there are evidences that its addition to soil may induce a priming effect (PE) thus influencing its C abatement potential. The direction, the size and the mechanisms responsible for PyOM induced PE are far from being understood. We collected approximately 650 data points from 18 studies to analyse the characteristics of the PE induced by PyOM. The database was divided between the PE induced on the native soil organic matter and on fresh organic matter. Most of the studies were short-term incubation therefore the projections of findings on the long term may be critical. Our findings indicate that over 1 year PyOM induces an average positive PE of 0.3 mg C g⁻¹ soil on native soil organic matter and a PE of approximately the same size but opposite direction on fresh organic matter. We studied the correlation of PE with several properties of soil, of the added PyOM, and time after PyOM addition. We found that PyOM primes positively the native soil organic matter in the first 20 days while negative PE appears in a later stage. Negative PE was correlated with the soil C content. PyOM characterized by a low C content induced a higher positive PE on native soil organic carbon. No correlation was found between the factors record in our database and the PE induced on the fresh organic matter. We reviewed the mechanisms proposed in literature to explain PE and discussed them based on findings from our meta-analysis. We believe that the presence of a labile fraction in PyOM may trigger the activity of soil microorganisms on the short term and therefore induce a positive PE, while on the long term PyOM may induce a negative PE by promoting physical protection mechanisms.

土壤非保护性有机碳对荒漠草原沙漠化的响应

沙化草地的恢复与重建是干旱半干旱区生态建设的重要内容,分析荒漠草原沙漠化过程中土壤非保护性有机碳分配比例的变异规律对于探讨沙化草地恢复机制具有重要的理论价值。以干旱、半干旱地区荒漠草原不同沙化阶段的土壤为研究对象,分析土壤粗颗粒有机碳、细颗粒有机碳、轻组有机碳含量和分配比例的分布特征、土壤非保护性有机碳转化为保护性有机碳的速率。结果表明:荒漠草原发生逆向演替后,土壤细颗粒有碳含量和分配比例表现为固定沙地荒漠草地半固定沙地流动沙地;粗颗粒有机碳含量表现为荒漠草地半固定沙地流动沙地固定沙地,粗颗粒有机碳分配比例表现为流动沙地半固定沙地荒漠草地固定沙地;轻组有机碳含量和分配比例递减。颗粒有机碳、轻组有机碳、土壤有机碳对草地沙漠化的敏感性不同,颗粒有机碳较轻组有机碳和土壤有机碳敏感性强,其中细颗粒有机碳较粗颗粒有机碳敏感性强。随着草地沙漠化程度的增强土壤非保护性有机碳分配比例呈下降趋势,表明草地沙漠化降低土壤质量。荒漠草地退化至流动沙地土壤非保护性有机碳转化为保护性有机碳的速率整体呈上升趋势。     

Nitrogen increases soil organic carbon accrual and alters its functionality

Nitrogen (N) availability has been considered as a critical factor for the cycling and storage of soil organic carbon (SOC), but effects of N enrichment on the SOC pool appear highly variable. Given the complex nature of the SOC pool, recent frameworks suggest that separating this pool into different functional components, for example, particulate organic carbon (POC) and mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC), is of great importance for understanding and predicting SOC dynamics. Importantly, little is known about how these N-induced changes in SOC components (e.g., changes in the ratios among these fractions) would affect the functionality of the SOC pool, given the differences in nutrient density, resistance to disturbance, and turnover time between POC and MAOC pool. Here, we conducted a global meta-analysis of 803 paired observations from 98 published studies to assess the effect of N addition on these SOC components, and the ratios among these fractions. We found that N addition, on average, significantly increased POC and MAOC pools by 16.4% and 3.7%, respectively. In contrast, both the ratios of MAOC to SOC and MAOC to POC were remarkably decreased by N enrichment (4.1% and 10.1%, respectively). Increases in the POC pool were positively correlated with changes in aboveground plant biomass and with hydrolytic enzymes. However, the positive responses of MAOC to N enrichment were correlated with increases in microbial biomass. Our results suggest that although reactive N deposition could facilitate soil C sequestration to some extent, it might decrease the nutrient density, turnover time, and resistance to disturbance of the SOC pool. Our study provides mechanistic insights into the effects of N enrichment on the SOC pool and its functionality at global scale, which is pivotal for understanding soil C dynamics especially in future scenarios with more frequent and severe perturbations.
