Heavy Metal Pollution of Sediments in Northern Jiaozhou Bay and the Influence of DOM on Their Environmental Behavior
-
摘要: 海岸带沉积物是污染物迁移转化的主要载体和归宿地. 溶解性有机质(DOM)作为重金属在环境中迁移的重要媒介,对沉积物中重金属的分布和迁移具有重要控制作用.运用因子指数和地累积指数法对胶州湾北部海岸带表层沉积物中Cr、Cu、Zn、As和Pb五种重金属的污染现状进行了评估,并结合三维荧光光谱分析沉积物中不同DOM组分的空间分异规律,探讨了胶州湾北部地区表层沉积物DOM组成与重金属迁移行为的关系.研究结果表明,海岸带沉积物重金属整体呈轻度污染水平;沉积物中的天然DOM组分包括陆地类富里酸(C1)、陆地类腐殖质(C2)、微生物源腐殖质(C3)和类色氨酸(C4)4种,整个地区类腐殖酸组分占比显著高于类蛋白组分,其来源同时受地面输入和生物代谢的影响;各重金属可能存在相似的污染来源,但迁移机制不同,造成其分布的差异;C1促进了Cr的自然迁移,DOM各组分通过不同的吸附络合机理影响着重金属在沉积物中的分布,且DOM各组分之间存在一定的相互转化过程.Abstract: Coastal zone sediments are the main carriers and destinations for the migration and transformation of pollutants. Dissolved organic matter (DOM), as an important medium for heavy metal migration in the environment, plays an important role in controlling the distribution and migration of heavy metals in sediments. The paper used the factor index and ground accumulation index methods to assess the current pollution status of five heavy metals, Cr, Cu, Zn, As and Pb, in the Surface sediment of the northern coastal zone of Jiaozhou Bay, and combined with three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy to analyze the spatial partitioning patterns of different DOM components in sediments, to explore the relationship between DOM composition and heavy metal migration behavior in the Surface sediment of the northern Jiaozhou Bay area. The results showed that the overall heavy metals in the coastal zone sediments were lightly contaminated; the natural DOM fractions in the sediments included four types of terrestrial fulvic acid (C1), terrestrial humic substances (C2), microbial-derived humic substances (C3) and tryptophan-like (C4), and the proportion of humic acid fractions was significantly higher than that of protein-like fractions in the whole area, and their sources were influenced by both terrestrial input and biological metabolism. Each heavy metal may have similar pollution sources, but different migration mechanisms cause differences in their distribution; C1 promotes the natural migration of Cr, each DOM fraction influences the distribution of heavy metals in sediments through different adsorption complexation mechanisms, and there are certain mutual transformation processes among DOM fractions.
