In order to reveal vertical distribution characteristics of nitrogen and organic matter in the ancient canal sediments of Zhenjiang old town, the columnar sediment samples in Dianli road bridge (D) and Nanshui bridge (B) were collected, contents of total nitrogen (TN), organic nitrogen (Org-N), ammonia nitrogen (NH4(+)-N), nitrate nitrogen (NO3(-)-N) and organic matter (O. M) were determined, and C/N, nutrient concentration coefficient and the correlation of nitrogen, O. M and environmental factors had been analyzed, and organic nitrogen and organic index had also been evaluated.

Compared to that under wetting-redrying treatment, the MgCl2-extracted pool of Cd in Huangnitu with spiked Cd of 5mg x kg(-1) and 10mg x kg(-1) was decreased from 21.8% and 28.
