[Temporal and Spatial Variation Characteristics and Source Analysis of Agricultural Non-point Source Pollution Load in Guangdong During the Past 20 Years].

The agricultural non-point source pollution (ANPSP) load in Guangdong province is very large and has a serious impact on the regional ecological environment. Inventory analysis was used to assess and analyze the temporal and spatial variation characteristics of the ANPSP load of Guangdong province during 1999-2019, and the sources of ANPSP were discussed, as well as the relationship between them. The results showed that, during the past 20 years, the total ANPSP pollution loads of Guangdong province decreased by 6.

Assessment of the long-term leaching characteristics of cement-slag stabilized/solidified contaminated sediment.

The use of stabilized/solidified (S/S) soils and sediments as sustainable construction materials is a global concern due to the potential risk of contaminant leaching including potentially toxic elements. The long-term leachability of four metals (Zn, Pb, Cd and As) in sediments mixed with OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) and OPC/GGBS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) binders were investigated through a combination of tank leaching tests and kinetic leaching models, with varying ranges of curing ages and ambient pH. The leaching data revealed that both binder compositions offer an excellent immobilization capacity for the four metals, while their releases are strongly pH-dependent and are a complex function of curing time.

Occurrence, fate and ecological risk of chlorinated paraffins in Asia: A review.

Chlorinated paraffins (CPs), complex mixtures of polychlorinated alkanes, are widely used in various industries and are thus ubiquitous in the receiving environment. The present study comprehensively reviewed the occurrence, fate and ecological risk of CPs in various environmental matrices in Asia. Releases from the production and consumption of CPs or CP-containing materials, wastewater discharge and irrigation, sewage sludge application, long-range atmospheric transport and aerial deposition have been found to be most likely sources and transport mechanisms for the dispersion of CPs in various environmental matrices, such as air, water, sediment, soil and biota.

[Characteristics and simulation of heat and CO2 fluxes over a typical cropland during the winter wheat growing in the North China Plain].

In order to study the surface energy budget of the cropland in North China Plain, this paper discussed the characteristics of heat and CO2 fluxes of the cropland during the winter wheat growing, and then simulated the dynamic change of the flux of heat and carbon by SiB2 (simple biosphere model Version2) based on the observational data from 2005-10-10 to 2006-06-10 of Weishan experimental station. The results showed that the heat and CO2 fluxes put up obvious inter-daily variations in the course of the wheat growing and their maximum appeared at around midday. The diurnal variations of them are obvious too, and the net radiation, latent heat flux and the heat flux of underlaying surface during the winter were minimum while they were maximum in the anthesis and maturation of wheat; and the sensible heat flux during the winter was maximum and it was minimum in the shooting and heading period of wheat; while the CO2 flux during the shooting and heading period of wheat was the maximum and it was minimum during the winter.
