Element remobilization, “internal P-loading,-and sediment-P reactivity researched by DGT (diffusive gradients in thin films) technique
文摘
Labile P, Fe, and sulfide with the high spatial resolution in sediment porewater of five sites (A–E) of Dianchi Lake (China) were measured at same locations using AgI/Chelex-100, Chelex-100, and ferrihydrite DGT (diffusive gradients in thin films) probes. DGT derived P/Fe/S concentrations in sediment porewater on millimeter or sub-millimeter scale in order to reveal the element remobilization process and the mechanism of “internal P-loading-of sediments in Dianchi Lake. Decomposition of alga biomass in the uppermost sediment layer and the reductive dissolution of Fe-bound P in the anoxic sediment were the two main processes causing P release. A dynamic numerical model-DIFS (DGT-induced flux in sediments) was used to assess sediment-P reactivity (capacity of solid pool and rate of transfer) and P release risk by kinetic parameter-em class="EmphasisTypeItalic ">T C (1089?0,450 s), distribution coefficient-em class="EmphasisTypeItalic ">K d (167.09?02.0 cm3 g?), resupply parameter-em class="EmphasisTypeItalic ">R (from 0.242 to 0.518), and changes of dissolved/sorbed concentration, R and M at the microzone of DGT/porewater/sediment.
