28 organism and 14 surface sediment samples from Daya Bay were collected to determine the compositions and concentrations of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethanes(DDTs),hexachlorocyclohexanes(HCHs) and chlordanes(CHLs) in 2003.Stable isotope δ15N,δ13C values and lipid contents in organism were also measured. Attention was paid to study the OCPs pollution status in sediment and organisms and their bioaccumulation law in Daya Bay.
The hydrology and water quality of runoff events were measured on gauging station and the runoff plots in the watershed and the rules of runoff, sediment, nitrogen and phosphorus load were analyzed.
Since the Holocene the soil erosion process in the Loess Plateau can be divided into 5 stages, of which starting times are 11, 7.0, 0.7, 0.3 and 0.15 ka B P. The regression equations of some parameters of modern rivers in the plateau are established by using the data of grain size of sediments, sediment discharge of river, annual runoff and precipitation.
The volumetric weight of the sediment could be reduced, and its porosity could be improved while the sediment was mixed with the natural soil by the ratio of 1∶1 or 1∶ 2 in bulk, or the straw, 5% the bulk of the correspondinging sediment, CaO, 0.5% the bulk of that, the peat, 6.7% the bulk of that was added sequentially again.
The plot experiments were conducted to study the effects of land utilization of municipal sludge and lake sediment on nutrients and heavy metals(Cd,Pb) in soil-plant system.
The analysis results for the properties of physics and chemistry of the sediment were as followings: the structure of the sediment was denser, and the permeability was worse because its volumetric weight was higher and its porosity was lower.
The hillslope erosion processes include soil separation, sediment transport and sediment precipitate, which these three process result from the rainfall splash erosion and runoff erosion.
The variables studied were transport of sand, underlying surface roughness, windblown sediment, wind-sand flow structure, soil mechanical composition and amount of wind erosion.
At a height of 0-20 cm, the height increased while the sediment discharge percent of sand flux decreased; there were significant differences in the sand flow formation under different land-use types.
At the same time, better correlative relationship between runoff and sediment production and rainfall and rainfall intensity were testified by multiple regression, but the correlation decreased gradually with the increase of canopy density of forest.
Investigations on the mineralogical properties of the important soils developed on sediments in Northern Honan made by X-ray diffraction, polarizing microscopic examination and chemical analysis showed that the mineralogical composition of the soil was closely related to the origin of the sediment materials, but not related to the soil types and the mechanical composition. The main constituent of the clay fraction (<1 micron) of the soils was hydrated micas, at the same time kaolinite, montmoril...
The main regions of sediment yield lie on the both sides of Huang He from Hekouzen to Lunmen, and in the upper and middle reaches of Jinhe, Lohe and Wehe river on the Loess Plateau. The sediment yield is concentrated in the period from July to September, or in one or two rainstorms .The delivery ratio approches to in the watersheds on the Plateau. Sediment yield in a small catchment is the result of both physical factors and human activities.Soil erosion is proportional to the addition of ...
Yulin prefecture in N. Shanxi is one of the main source zones of sediment in the Yellow River. The gullied rolling loess area in particular, covering 29,000km2, has an erosion modulus of 15,000-44,800 t/km2 and is subject to severe droughts. The building of silt-arresters for siltation of land in gullies carried out on a trial basis at key positions in the fifties was later Popularized, and since the seventies,dam-building by sluicing siltation have been widely applied in our country and by the end of...
