Polyacrylamide (PAM) was studied in two characteristic soils in Daqing City: chernozem and saline soil. 120 mg L of KBr was used as a conservation tracer to estimate diffusion coefficients and pore velocities of chernozem and saline soil by using the breakthrough curves (BTCs) of Br. Isothermal adsorption equations were coupled with the traditional two-site model to establish the transportation equation of PAM. The results of comparing the simulation curve with the BTCs of PAM at different rates showed that the transportation equation of PAM could simulate the transport process of PAM in soil column accurately. PAM behaved as non-equilibrium adsorption in both soils by calculating the kinetic parameters in this equation. The results of this work not only confirmed the kinetic parameters of PAM in both soils, but also found that there is a good liner relationship between the mass transfer coefficient and pore velocity. The values of the two linear equations are 0.983 and 0.979. These linear equations provide a good prediction basis for site prediction. In addition, it was found that organic matter is the main influence factor for the adsorption capacity of chernozem causing significantly larger than that of saline soil.

Soil salinization is one of the main problems leading to a reduction in arable land area. In the present study, strongly salt-tolerant lines were screened for germination rates and physiological indices. The mechanism of saline-alkali stress tolerance in winter rapeseed was examined using transcriptome and metabolome analyses.

Improving the quality of degraded coastal saline-alkali soil and promoting plant growth are key challenges in the restoration of ecological functions in coastal regions. Organic ameliorants such as effective microbial (EM) agent, biochar, and organic compost have been proposed as sustainable solutions, but limited research has explored the combined effects of these amendments. This study investigates five organic improvement strategies: individual applications of EM, corn straw biochar (CSB), and sewage sludge-reed straw compost (COM), along with combined treatments of CSB + EM and COM + EM, on Sesbania growth in a pot experiment.

Coastal wetlands, including freshwater systems near large lakes, rapidly bury carbon, but less is known about how they transport carbon either to marine and lake environments or to the atmosphere as greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as carbon dioxide and methane. This study examines how GHG production and organic matter (OM) mobility in coastal wetland soils vary with the availability of oxygen and other terminal electron acceptors. We also evaluated how OM and redox-sensitive species varied across different size fractions: particulates (0.

Background: Globally, salinity poses a threat to crop productivity by hindering plant growth and development via osmotic stress and ionic cytotoxicity. Plant extracts have lately been employed as exogenous adjuvants to improve endogenous plant defense mechanisms when grown under various environmental stresses, such as salinity. This study investigated the potential of melatonin (Mt; 0, 50, and 100 mM) as an antioxidant and licorice root extract (LRE; 0.

Excessive irrigation of saline-alkaline soils with Cd-contaminated wastewater has resulted in deterioration of both soil and plant quality. To an investigate this, a study was conducted to explore the effects of biochar (applied at 10 t ha), PGPRs ( (USDA 110) + at 1:1 ratio), and Si-NPs (25 mg L) on soybean plants grown in saline-alkali soil irrigated with wastewater. The results showed that the trio-combination of biochar with PGPRs, (as soil amendments) and Si-NPs (as foliar spraying), was more effective than individual or coupled applications in reducing Cd bioavailability in the soil, minimizing its absorption, translocation and bioconcentration in soybean tissues.
