表层水体中典型小分子有机氮的光铵化反应

地表水体中溶解性有机氮(DON)向无机氮的光化学转化是氮循环的重要过程之一。本文以自然水体中典型小分子DON(如氨基酸、核苷酸、尿素等)为对象,通过检测不同条件下的光铵化速率,探究小分子DON的结构、光源及水质条件对其光铵化过程的影响。结果表明:模拟自然光下,含有芳香环结构的氨基酸可以发生不同程度光铵化反应,酪氨酸和色氨酸的光铵化速率最大,6 h转化率可达约50%,而尿素和核苷酸则无明显光铵化反应发生;自然光下,酪氨酸和色氨酸在缓冲液中发生明显光铵化反应,而自然水样中组氨酸和苯丙氨酸也可生成NH4+;可见光波段对DON的光铵化几乎没有贡献,说明DON的光铵化速率受光源与水质组分影响。分子结构也影响DON的光铵化反应,如组氨酸分子中的氮可以完全转化为NH4+,而一个色氨酸分子中则仅有一个氮原子可以发生转化。基于密度泛函理论计算发现,氨基酸光铵化速率与其分子轨道能隙值有较好的负相关性。系列实验表明了水体中DON光化学转化的复杂性,应当在氮循环、水质变化和生态环境的评估中得到重视。     

杉木人工林土壤可溶性有机质及其与土壤养分的关系

通过在福建省来舟林场对不同栽植代数杉木人工林土壤可溶性有机碳(DOC)和氮(DON)及土壤养分的研究,其结果表明,随着杉木栽植代数的增加林地土壤DOC和DON含量逐渐下降,在0～10cm土层内第3代杉木林土壤DOC和DON含量分别是第1代杉木林的83.9%和87.1%、第2代杉木林的90.6%和96.9%,在10～20cm土层内第3代杉木林土壤DOC和DON含量分别是第1代杉木林的80.2%和81.5%、第2代杉木林的81.8%和90.0%。在不同林地和土层内土壤DOC含量之间的差异性达到了显著或极显著水平,而DON含量之间的差异性不显著。不同栽植代数杉木林土壤养分的变化趋势与DOM一致,随着杉木连栽,土壤养分含量呈下降趋势。在0～10cm土层内第3代杉木林土壤全氮、全钾、铵态氮和速效钾含量分别是第1代杉木林的83.1%、60.4%、68.1%和44.3%,是第2代杉木林的84.6%、68.5%、74.4%和58.7%;在10～20cm土层内第3代杉木林土壤全氮、全钾、铵态氮和速效钾含量分别是第1代杉木林的74.0%、53.4%、57.6%和54.6%,是第2代杉木林的94.8%、59.5%、74.3%和65.5%。经相关性分析,在各土层内土壤DOC和DON含量与土壤全氮、全钾、铵态氮和速效钾等土壤养分含量存在着不同程度的相关性。     

Dynamics of dissolved organic nitrogen in subalpine Castle Lake,California

Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) concentrations were measured in meso-oligotrophic Castle Lake, California during the ice-free season in 1982, 1983 and 1984. No consistent relationships were found between DON and particulate-N, primary productivity rates or chlorophyll concentrations. However, increases in DON concentrations were observed in the early growing season of 1982 and 1984 when water temperature was rising and a diatom bloom was senescing. DON increased at a high rate (0.31 mg atom N m^–3 day^–1), and then rapidly disappeared. Sediment released appared to be the most important source of DON. Dissolved free amino acids were always less than 7.5% of the DON pool, and did not vary in the composition of specific amino acids during the growing season.

Ammonium,nitrate and dissolved organic nitrogen in seepage water as affected by compost amendment to European beech,Norway spruce,and Scots pine forests

Fertilization of nutrient-depleted and degraded forest soils may be required to sustain utilization of forests. In some European countries, the application of composts may now be an alternative to the application of inorganic fertilizers because commercial compost production has increased and compost quality has been improved. There is, however, concern that compost amendments may cause increased leaching of nitrogen, trace metals and toxic organic compounds to groundwater. The objective of this study was to assess the risk of ammonium (NH₄ ⁺), nitrate (NO₃ ^–) and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) leaching following a single compost application to silty and sandy soils in mature beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), pine (Pinus silvestris L.) and spruce (Picea abies Karst.) forests at Solling and Unterlüß in Lower Saxony, Germany. Mature compost from separately collected organic household waste was applied to the soil surface at a rate of 6.3 kg m^–2 in the summer of 1997 and changes in NH₄ ⁺, NO₃ ^– and DON concentrations in throughfall and soil water at 10 and 100 cm soil depths were determined for 32 months. The spruce forests had the highest N inputs by throughfall water and the highest N outputs in both the control and compost plots compared with the pine and beech forests. Overall, the differences in total N outputs at 100 cm soil depth between the control and compost plots ranged between 0.3 and 11.2 g N m^–2 for the entire 32-month period. The major leaching of these amounts occurred during the first 17 months after compost amendments, but there was no significant difference in total N outputs (–0.2 to 1.8 g N m^–2) between the control and compost plots during the remaining 15 months. Most of the mineral soils acted as a significant sink for NO₃ ^– and DON as shown by a reduction of their outputs from 10 to 100 cm depth. Based on these results, we conclude that application of mature compost with high inorganic N contents could diminish the groundwater quality in the first months after the amendments. A partial, moderate application of mature compost with low inorganic N content to nutrient depleted forest soils can minimize the risk of NO₃ ^– leaching.     

The carbon bonus of organic nitrogen enhances nitrogen use efficiency of plants

The importance of organic nitrogen (N) for plant nutrition and productivity is increasingly being recognized. Here we show that it is not only the availability in the soil that matters, but also the effects on plant growth. The chemical form of N taken up, whether inorganic (such as nitrate) or organic (such as amino acids), may significantly influence plant shoot and root growth, and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). We analysed these effects by synthesizing results from multiple laboratory experiments on small seedlings (Arabidopsis, poplar, pine and spruce) based on a tractable plant growth model. A key point is that the carbon cost of assimilating organic N into proteins is lower than that of inorganic N, mainly because of its carbon content. This carbon bonus makes it more beneficial for plants to take up organic than inorganic N, even when its availability to the roots is much lower – up to 70% lower for Arabidopsis seedlings. At equal growth rate, root:shoot ratio was up to three times higher and nitrogen productivity up to 20% higher for organic than inorganic N, which both are factors that may contribute to higher NUE in crop production.     

Contribution of amino compounds to dissolved organic nitrogen in forest soils

Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) may play an important role in plantnutrition and nitrogen fluxes in forest ecosystems. In spite of the apparentimportance of DON, there is a paucity of information concerning its chemicalcomposition. However, it is exactly this chemical characterization that isrequired to understand the importance of DON in ecosystem processes. Theprimaryobjective of this study was to characterize the distribution of free aminoacidsand hydrolyzable peptides/proteins in the DON fraction of Oa horizon leachatesalong an extreme edaphic gradient in northern California. Insitu soil solutions were extracted by centrifugation from Oahorizonscollected beneath Pinus muricata (Bishop pine) andCupressus pygmaea (pygmy cypress) on slightlyacidic/fertile and highly acidic/infertile sites. DON accounted for 77 to99% of the total dissolved nitrogen in Oa horizon leachates. Nitrogen infree amino acids and alkyl amines ranged from 0.04–0.07 mgN/L on the low fertility site to 0.45–0.49 mg N/L onthe high fertility site, and accounted for 1.5 to 10.6% of the DON fraction.Serine, glutamic acid, leucine, ornithine, alanine, aspartic acid andmethylamine were generally the most abundant free amino compounds. Combinedamino acids released by acid hydrolysis accounted for 48 to 74% of theDON, suggesting that proteins and peptides were the main contributor to DON inOa horizon leachates. Together, nitrogen from free andcombined amino compounds accounted for 59 to 78% of the DON. Most of theDON was found in the hydrophobic fraction, which suggests the presence ofprotein/peptide-polyphenol complexes or amino compounds associated withhumic substances. Because free and combined amino acids can be an importantnitrogen source for some plants, soil DON may play an important role in plantnutrition and ecosystem function.     

A mechanism of abiotic immobilization of nitrate in forest ecosystems: the ferrous wheel hypothesis

Forest soils, rather than woody biomass, are the dominant long‐term sink for N in forest fertilization studies and, by inference, for N from atmospheric deposition. Recent evidence of significant abiotic immobilization of inorganic‐N in forest humus layers challenges a previously widely held view that microbial processes are the dominant pathways for N immobilization in soil. Understanding the plant, microbial, and abiotic mechanisms of N immobilization in forest soils has important implications for understanding current and future carbon budgets. Abiotic immobilization of nitrate is particularly perplexing because the thermodynamics of nitrate reduction in soils are not generally favorable under oxic conditions. Here we present preliminary evidence for a testable hypothesis that explains abiotic immobilization of nitrate in forest soils. Because iron (and perhaps manganese) plays a key role as a catalyst, with Fe(II) reducing nitrate and reduced forms of carbon then regenerating Fe(II), we call this ‘the ferrous wheel hypothesis’. After nitrate is reduced to nitrite, we hypothesize that nitrite reacts with dissolved organic matter through nitration and nitrosation of aromatic ring structures, thus producing dissolved organic nitrogen (DON). In addition to ignorance about mechanisms of DON production, little is known about DON dynamics in soil and its fate within ecosystems. Evidence from leaching and watershed studies suggests that DON production and consumption may be largely uncoupled from seasonal biological processes, although biological processes ultimately produce the DOC and reducing power that affect DON formation and the entire N cycle. The ferrous wheel hypothesis includes both biological and abiological processes, but the reducing power of plant‐derived organic matter may build up over seasons and years while the abiotic reduction of nitrate and reaction of organic matter with nitrite may occur in a matter of seconds after nitrate enters the soil solution.     

A stormflow/baseflow comparison of dissolved organic matter concentrations and bioavailability in an Appalachian stream

Patterns of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and nitrogen (DON) delivery were compared between times of stormflow and baseflow in Paine Run, an Appalachian stream draining a 12.4 km² forested catchment in the Shenandoah National Park (SNP), Virginia. The potential in-stream ecological impact of altered concentrations and/or chemical composition of DOM during storms also was examined, using standardized bacterial bioassays. DOC and DON concentrations in Paine Run were consistently low during baseflow and did not show a seasonal pattern. During storms however, mean DOC and DON concentrations approximately doubled, with maximum concentrations occurring on the rising limb of storm hydrographs. The rapid response of DOM concentration to changes in flow suggests a near-stream or in-stream source of DOM during storms. Stormflow (4% of the time, 36% of the annual discharge) contributed >50% of DOC, DON and NO₃ ^– flux in Paine Run during 1997. In laboratory bacterial bioassays, growth rate constants were higher on Paine Run stormflow water than on baseflow water, but the fraction of total DOM which was bioavailable was not significantly different. The fraction of the total stream DOC pool taken up by water column bacteria was estimated to increase from 0.03 ± 0.02% h^–1 during baseflow, to 0.15 ± 0.04% h^–1 during storms. This uptake rate would have a minimal effect on bulk DOM concentrations in Paine Run, but storms may still have considerable impact on the bacterial stream communities by mobilizing them into the water column and by supplying a pulse of DOM.

测定了黄土高原地区不同生态系统土壤中可溶性有机氮（SON）和游离氨基酸的含量,并分析了其与土壤其他性质之间的关系。结果表明,黑垆土、红油土和淋溶褐土中SON的平均含量分别为24．75、39．10mg／kg和41．80mg／kg,占可溶性总氮（TSN）的51．25％、68．28％和68．57％,分别为土壤全氮的2．54％、3．75％和4．00％;土壤游离氨基酸的含量分别为7．18、7．42mg／kg和7．41mg／kg,分别占SON的30．53％、19．23％和17．50％,占全氮的0．74％、0．71％和0．71％．方差分析结果表明,土壤类型对土壤SON含量及其在TSN和全氮中所占的比例、游离氨基酸在SON中所占的比例有显著影响,而对游离氨基酸的含量及其占土壤全氮比例的影响未达显著水平。枯枝落叶层中SON含量（248．26mg／kg）为农田土壤（24．75mg／kg）的10倍左右,且林地土壤0～20cm土层SON含量（31．03mg／kg）显著的高于当地农田,两种生态系统0～20cm土层土壤中游离氨基酸含量（7．18～7．32mg／kg）相当,但均极显著低于枯枝落叶层中游离氨基酸平均含量（18．57mg／kg）。相关分析结果表明,TSN、SON以及游离氨基酸与全氮、硝态氮、铵态氮、有机质等各养分之间均有极显著的相关性。     

Dissolved organic nitrogen budgets for upland, forested ecosystems in New England

Relatively high deposition ofnitrogen (N) in the northeastern United States hascaused concern because sites could become N saturated.In the past, mass-balance studies have been used tomonitor the N status of sites and to investigate theimpact of increased N deposition. Typically, theseefforts have focused on dissolved inorganic forms ofN (DIN = NH₄-N + NO₃-N) and have largelyignored dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) due todifficulties in its analysis. Recent advances in themeasurement of total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) havefacilitated measurement of DON as the residual of TDN– DIN. We calculated DON and DIN budgets using data onprecipitation and streamwater chemistry collected from9 forested watersheds at 4 sites in New England. TDNin precipitation was composed primarily of DIN. Netretention of TDN ranged from 62 to 89% (4.7 to 10 kgha^{minus 1} yr^{minus 1}) of annual inputs. DON made up themajority of TDN in stream exports, suggesting thatinclusion of DON is critical to assessing N dynamicseven in areas with large anthropogenic inputs of DIN.Despite the dominance of DON in streamwater,precipitation inputs of DON were approximately equalto outputs. DON concentrations in streamwater did notappear significantly influenced by seasonal biologicalcontrols, but did increase with discharge on somewatersheds. Streamwater NO₃-N was the onlyfraction of N that exhibited a seasonal pattern, withconcentrations increasing during the winter months andpeaking during snowmelt runoff. Concentrations ofNO₃-N varied considerably among watersheds andare related to DOC:DON ratios in streamwater. AnnualDIN exports were negatively correlated withstreamwater DOC:DON ratios, indicating that theseratios might be a useful index of N status of uplandforests.     

The effect of land use on dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen uptake in streams

1. Agricultural and urban land use may increase dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) concentrations in streams and saturate biotic nutrient demand, but less is known about their impacts on the cycling of organic nutrients. To assess these impacts we compared the uptake of DIN (as ammonium, NH₄⁺), dissolved organic carbon (DOC, as acetate), and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON, as glycine) in 18 low‐gradient headwater streams in southwest Michigan draining forested, agricultural, or urban land‐use types. Over 3 years, we quantified uptake in two streams in each of the three land‐use types during three seasons (spring, summer and autumn). 2. We found significantly higher NH₄⁺ demand (expressed as uptake velocity, V_f) in urban compared to forested streams and NH₄⁺V_f was greater in spring compared to summer and autumn. Acetate V_f was significantly higher than NH₄⁺ and glycine V_f, but neither acetate nor glycine V_f were influenced by land‐use type or season. 3. We examined the interaction between NH₄⁺ and acetate demand by comparing simultaneous short‐term releases of both solutes to releases of each solute individually. Acetate V_f did not change during the simultaneous release with NH₄⁺, but NH₄⁺V_f was significantly higher with increased acetate. Thus, labile DOC V_f was not limited by the availability of NH₄⁺, but NH₄⁺V_f was limited by the availability of labile DOC. In contrast, neither glycine nor NH₄⁺V_f changed when released simultaneously indicating either that overall N‐uptake was saturated or that glycine and NH₄⁺ uptake were controlled by different factors. 4. Our results suggest that labile DOC and DON uptake can be equivalent to, or even higher than NH₄⁺ uptake, a solute known to be highly bioreactive, but unlike NH₄⁺ uptake, may not differ among land‐use types and seasons. Moreover, downstream export of nitrogen may be exacerbated by limitation of NH₄⁺ uptake by the availability of labile DOC in headwater streams from the agricultural Midwestern United States. Further research is needed to identify the factors that influence cycling of DOC and DON in streams.     

氮素添加和CO2浓度升高对白羊草根际和非根际土壤水溶性有机碳、氮的影响

采用盆栽控制试验对黄土丘陵区白羊草在不同CO₂浓度(400和800 μmol·mol^-1)和施氮水平(0、2.5、5.0 g N·m^-2·a^-1)条件下根际和非根际土壤水溶性有机碳(DOC)和水溶性有机氮(DON)的变化特征进行研究.结果表明: CO₂浓度升高对白羊草根际和非根际土壤DOC、水溶性总氮(DTN)、DON、水溶性铵态氮(NH₄⁺-N)、水溶性硝态氮(NO₃^--N)含量均无显著影响.施氮显著提高了根际和非根际土壤DTN、NO₃^--N含量和根际土壤DON含量,显著降低了根际土壤DOC/DON.在各处理条件下,根际土壤DTN、NO₃^--N和DON含量均显著低于非根际土壤,根际土壤DOC/DON显著高于非根际土壤.短期CO₂浓度升高对黄土丘陵区土壤水溶性有机碳、氮含量无显著影响,而氮沉降的增加在一定程度上改善了土壤中水溶性氮素缺乏的状况,但并不足以满足植被对水溶性氮素的需求.

Slow response of soil organic matter to the reduction in atmospheric nitrogen deposition in a Norway spruce forest

Global nitrogen (N) deposition rates in terrestrial environments have quadrupled since preindustrial times, causing structural and functional changes of ecosystems. Different emission reduction policies were therefore devised. The aim of our study was to investigate if, and over what timescale, processes of soil organic matter (OM) transformation respond to a decline in atmospheric N deposition. A N‐saturated spruce forest (current N deposition: 34 kg ha^?1 yr^?1; critical N load: 14 kg ha^?1 yr^?1), where N deposition has been reduced to 11.5 kg ha^?1 yr^?1 since 1991, was studied. Besides organic C and organic and inorganic N, noncellulosic carbohydrates, amino sugars and amino acids were determined. A decline in organic N in litter indicated initial effects at plant level. However, there were no changes in biomarkers upon the reduction in N deposition. In addition, inorganic N was not affected by reduced N deposition. The results showed that OM cycling and transformation processes have not responded so far. It was concluded that no direct N deposition effects have occurred due to the large amount of stored organic N, which seems to compensate for the reduction in deposited N. Obviously, the time span of atmospheric N reduction (about 14.5 years) is too short compared with the mean turnover time of litter to cause indirect effects on the composition of organic C and N compounds. It is assumed that ecological processes, such as microbial decomposition or recycling of organic N and C, react slowly, but may start within the next decade with the incorporation of the new litter.     

Seasonal cycling of putrescine and amino acids in relation to biological production in a stratified coastal salt pond

Seasonal cycles of concentrations and microbial uptake of dissolved free amino acids and the polyamine, putrescine, were followed during summer stratification of a coastal salt pond. Stratification began in May and was clearly seen in profiles of temperature, salinity, pH and alkalinity. Primary production exhibited a mid-August maximum and the O₂-H₂S interface shoaled at that time. POC and phytopigments roughly followed the pattern of primary production. Cycling of putresince, like the amino acids, was strongly influenced by primary production and microbial decomposition. Putrescine concentration profiles appeared to follow the pattern of primary production more closely, while amino acids appeared to follow the pattern of microbial production. The absence of production of putrescine during the decomposition of dissolved ornithine and the correlation of putrescine concentration with primary production suggest a direct source from algae in the water column.Microbial uptake of amino acids and putrescine together accounted for 60–90% of the bacterial C production measured in oxic waters and almost 300% of that measured in the anoxic bottom layer. Since other organic carbon and nitrogen compounds are also being taken up, these data suggest that tracer uptake methods as we used them may overestimate the true microbial uptake rates, or release of other organic compounds by microbes occurs at the same time. Further work on carbon and nitrogen budgets is needed to resolve the apparent imbalance between organic C and N incorporation and bacterial production.     

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。
