Moreover, the diffusion fluxes of NH 4 -N, NO 3 -N and NO 2 -N between water and intertidal sediment interface were estimated, indicating that NH 4 -N in sediments may play an important role in the Yangtze estuarine and coastal environment.
The basic factors affecting the seasonal variation of inorganic N have been discussed. Moreover, the diffusion fluxes of NH4N, NO3N and NO2N between water and intertidal sediment interface have been estimated, and it indicates that NH4N in sediments may play an important role in the Yangtze estuarine and coastal environment.
As a consequence, the apparent fractional rate of solution transport to the intertidal sediment was found to increase as follows:99Tc>amp;gt;137Cs>amp;gt;237Np>amp;gt;239,240Pu≥241Am.
Field observations suggest that plutonium and americium in the environment are present in very different chemical forms in the interstitial waters of an intertidal sediment.
To evaluate the effect of the tidal cycle on the pore water nitrate dynamics in intertidal sediment, concentrations of inorganic nitrogen in water and sediment were monitored during tidal cycles in the mud flat of Tama Estuary, Japan.
Forthis purpose two EPS fractions (termed coll-SF and EDTA-SF) wereisolated from intertidal sediment and characterized in terms ofmonosaccharide- and size distribution.
The concentrations of PO3-4 -P,NH+4 -N and Fe2+ were measured for pore water in the in tertidal column sediment and the sea surface sediment. The average concentrations of PO3-4-P in the intertidal sediment (2 ~ 5 μmol/dm3 ) were in the same order of magnitude with hundred times that in the sea sediment (3. 3umol/dm3),but both were lower than that of the harbour sediment (0. 1 ~0. 6mmol/dm3 ) in America. By the means of anaerobic culture, we have studied the relationship ...
study on the contents and the distribution of the Heavy Metals in the Siliqua minim a and the intertidal sediment at Fengting Bay,Fujian.The assessment approaches of chemical and Potential ecological risk are used.The main influence factors are discussed.The results showed that there are Heavy m etals Pollution in sediments of two(Fengting River and Cang River) estuaries and the Creek under forest,the Heavy metals in Fengting Bay sediments possess potential ecological risk.
In 1998-1999, contents of inorganic nitrogen (NH 4 -N, NO 3 -N and NO 2 -N) in water and sediment of intertidal flats of the Shanghai coast were investigated at three stations (CY, DH and LY). Results show that the main form of inorganic nitrogen in water of intertidal flats is of NO 3 -N with a wide range (37.2~226.1祄ol·L 1 ); most of exchangeable N in surface intertidal sediments is of NH 4 -N, accounting for...
