摘要

生态材料中C和N的稳定同位素特征的变化有可能表明环境扰动。本研究调查了受农业活动影响的景观中低阶溪流的河水和周边生物的δ13C‰和δ15N‰比率。我们的主要目的是评估最佳管理实践(BMP)的存在和年龄对C和N同位素值的影响,作为潜在的水质评估。我们从美国纽约特拉华河上游流域的19条溪流中收集了4种管理类别的溪流水和周边生物:1)最近应用的BMP处理,2)长期使用的BMP,3)缺乏BMP的溪流,以及4)干扰最小的参考溪流。在2013年4月至11月的重复测量设计(BMP类别×时间)中,我们对水和周边生物的δ13C‰和δ15N‰进行了采样和分析。河水δ13C溶解有机碳(DIC)‰和δ15NO3-N‰存在较大的季节差异,参考河流和农业河流之间差异很大。Periphytonδ13C‰和δ15N‰的值在有农业活动的排水地的溪流中也存在很大差异,所有农业类别的PeriphytonΔ15N‰信号比参考溪流高85%。外周藻硅藻和叶绿素的分类比例与外周藻δ13C‰的值关系最强,其中硅藻与δ13C的增加呈负相关。这些结果表明,尽管BMP有所缓解,但水性和外周稳定同位素在检测农业对这些溪流的持久影响方面是敏感的,其中营养物(原磷酸盐、亚硝酸盐和氨)水平不是指示性的。这些结果还表明,BMP可能没有完全消除农业压力对受影响溪流水质的负面影响。

Periphyton C and N stable isotopes detect agricultural stressors in low-order streams
Shifts in the stable isotope signatures of C and N in ecological materials have the potential to indicate environmental disturbances. This study examined the δ13C‰ and δ15N‰ ratios of stream water and periphyton from low-order streams in a landscape influenced by agricultural activities. Our key purpose was to assess the influence of best management practice (BMP) presence and age on C and N isotope values as a potential water-quality assessment. We collected stream water and periphyton from 19 streams within the Upper Delaware River watershed in New York, USA, in each of 4 management categories: 1) recently applied BMP treatments, 2) long-standing BMPs, 3) streams lacking BMPs, and 4) minimally disturbed reference streams. We sampled and analyzed water and periphyton for δ13C‰ and δ15N‰ in a repeated-measures design (BMP category × time) from April to November 2013. There were large seasonal differences in stream water δ13C-dissolved organic C (DIC)‰ and δ15NO3-N‰, with strong differences between reference and agricultural streams. Periphyton δ13C‰ and δ15N‰ values also differed strongly across streams draining land with agricultural activities, with 85% higher periphyton δ15N‰ signals in all agricultural categories vs reference streams. Periphyton diatom and chlorophyte taxonomic proportions showed the strongest relationship with periphyton δ13C‰ values, where diatoms were negatively associated with increasing δ13C‰. These results suggest that aqueous and periphytic stable isotopes were sensitive in detecting persistent effects of agriculture on these streams despite BMP mitigation, where nutrient (orthosphosphate, nitrite, and ammonia) levels were non-indicative. These results also suggest that BMPs may not have fully eliminated the negative impacts of agricultural stressors on water quality in impacted streams.

期刊介绍: Freshwater Science (FWS) publishes articles that advance understanding and environmental stewardship of all types of inland aquatic ecosystems (lakes, rivers, streams, reservoirs, subterranean, and estuaries) and ecosystems at the interface between aquatic and terrestrial habitats (wetlands, riparian areas, and floodplains). The journal regularly features papers on a wide range of topics, including physical, chemical, and biological properties of lentic and lotic habitats; ecosystem processes; structure and dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems; ecology, systematics, and genetics of freshwater organisms, from bacteria to vertebrates; linkages between freshwater and other ecosystems and between freshwater ecology and other aquatic sciences; bioassessment, conservation, and restoration; environmental management; and new or novel methods for basic or applied research.
