摘要

海湾战争导致科威特大面积地面受到污染。在科威特北部，可饮用的地下水像透镜一样存在，这些透镜的完整性受到地面污染的威胁。1991年，科威特北部的油湖、油泥和油烟覆盖总面积分别约为32平方公里、5平方公里和150平方公里。一些自然和人为的措施显著地影响了污染物的分布。1995年，油湖覆盖面积为2 km2，油泥覆盖面积为35 km2，油烟覆盖面积为25 km2。土壤样品采集深度为10 m。土壤样品分析显示，地表、4米和10米深度的最大污染物水平分别约为20 ppm、10 ppm和1 ppm。1995年降雨对污染物向下移动到10米以上的深度起了重要作用。

Soil contamination from oil lakes in northern Kuwait

The Gulf War resulted in the contamination of large areas of ground surface in Kuwait. In northern Kuwait, ground water of potable quality exists as lenses and the integrity of these lenses is threatened by the pollution over the ground surface. In 1991, the total area covered by oil lakes, oil sludge, and soot in northern Kuwait was about 32 km2, 5 km2, and 150 km2, respectively. Several natural and man‐made measures significantly affected the distribution of contaminants. In 1995, the area covered by oil lakes, oil sludge, and soot changed to 2 km2, 35 km2, and 25 km2, respectively. Soil samples were collected to depths of 10 m. The analysis of soil samples showed maximum contaminant levels of about 20 ppm, 10 ppm, and 1 ppm at ground surface, 4 m and 10 m depths, respectively. Rainfall played a significant role in the downward movement of contaminants to depths in excess of 10 m in 1995.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
