Soil contamination by potentially toxic metals is one of the major environmental problems in urban environments. Traditional soil monitoring methods, while accurate, are often costly and labor-intensive, making it challenging to capture the intricate spatial variations of pollutants in urban soils. Proximal sensing based on X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis is considered a cost-effective approach for rapid assessment of soil contamination. The assessment accuracy depends on soil properties (e.g., texture, moisture, organic matter content) and detection limits for different elements. The research aimed to test a portable XRF analyzer for the assessment of soil contamination by potentially toxic metals in green zones of Moscow megalopolis.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt; &lt;h3&gt;Materials and methods&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt;Initially, Olympus Vanta C pXRF was calibrated using artificially contaminated soil mixtures by Ni, Cu, Pb, Zn, and Cd, representing a diversity of urban soils in Moscow. Linear regression was used to compare pXRF results with the ICP-OES method, and regression coefficients were used to set correction factors (&lt;em&gt;k&lt;/em&gt;) for observed potentially toxic metals based on soil properties. Subsequently, the spatial mapping accuracy of topsoil contamination in three distinct green areas was assessed using pXRF (with and without correction factors) based on ICP-OES reference concentrations.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt; &lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt;The calibrated pXRF showed high accuracy for Pb (&lt;em&gt;R&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.94, &lt;em&gt;b&lt;/em&gt; = 0.91, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.05), Cu (&lt;em&gt;R&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.95, &lt;em&gt;b&lt;/em&gt; = 0.95, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.05), and Zn (&lt;em&gt;R&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.95, &lt;em&gt;b&lt;/em&gt; = 1.04, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.05), moderate accuracy for Ni (&lt;em&gt;R&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.68, &lt;em&gt;b&lt;/em&gt; = 0.77, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.05), and limited accuracy for Cd (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &gt; 0.05) on a typical urban contamination level due to its high detection limit. Spatial variability in soil contamination was determined by comparison to the health thresholds (approximate permissible concentration and pollution indices), and the areas subjected to land-use restrictions were identified based on the regional environmental regulations.

Fertilization and plastic film mulching, as common agricultural management practices, affect soil aggregation and microbial activities. However, how microbial necromass C is accumulated and contributes to organic C sequestration within soil aggregates remains poorly understood, especially under fertilization combined with plastic film mulching.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Methods</h3><p>We set the mulching and no-mulching sub-treatments under three long-term (28 years) fertilization treatments (no fertilization, NF; inorganic fertilization, IF; manure application, MF) and conducted a 900-day field mesocosm experiment. We quantified the proportion of microbial necromass C in organic C within soil aggregates using amino sugar biomarkers, and investigated the effects of fertilization combined with mulching on the dynamics of microbial necromass C within soil aggregates.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Results</h3><p>Microbial necromass C accounted for 28.2–42.9% of organic C of macroaggregates (&gt; 0.25 mm) and 40.4–55.8% of organic C of microaggregates (&lt; 0.25 mm) on day 900. The proportion of fungal necromass C in organic C of soil aggregates was nearly two times more than that of bacterial necromass C within 360–900 days. Regardless of mulching or no-mulching, the MF treatment increased the microbial necromass C content within macroaggregates and microaggregates, on average, by 148.6% and 84.5% compared with the NF treatment during the entire incubation period, respectively. Mulching facilitated microbial necromass C accrual within macroaggregates under the NF and IF treatments only on day 360, but increased it under the MF treatment on both day 360 and day 900. Mulching increased the fungal necromass C content and its contribution to organic C within macroaggregates by an average of 17.4% and 11.2% under the MF treatment during the entire incubation period, respectively.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Conclusions</h3><p>Manure application combined with mulching promoted organic C sequestration within macroaggregates via the accumulation of fungal necromass C.</p>","PeriodicalId":17139,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Soils and Sediments","volume":"112 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140150425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One primary sink of dissolved oxygen (DO) is sediment oxygen uptake (<span>({J}_{{O}_{2}})</span>). On the water side of the sediment–water interface (SWI), <span>({J}_{{O}_{2}})</span> is controlled by a diffusive boundary layer (DBL), a millimeter-scale layer where molecular diffusion is the primary transport mechanism. In previous studies, the DBL was determined by visual inspection, which is subjective and time-consuming.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Material and methods</h3><p>In this study, a computational procedure is proposed to determine the SWI and DBL objectively and automatically. The procedure was evaluated for more than 300 DO profiles in the sediment of three eutrophic water bodies spanning gradients of depth and surface area. Synthetic DO profiles were modeled based on sediment characteristics estimated by laboratory experiments. The procedure was further verified adopting the synthetic profiles.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Results and discussion</h3><p>The procedure, which was evaluated for both measured and synthetic DO profiles, determined the SWI and DBL well for both steady and non-steady state DO profiles. A negative relationship between DBL thickness and aeration rates was observed, which agrees with existing literatures.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Conclusions</h3><p>The procedure is recommended for future studies involving characterizing DBL to improve efficiency and consistency.</p>","PeriodicalId":17139,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Soils and Sediments","volume":"97 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140156632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
