Soil dissolved organic carbon leaching characteristics of the coastal saline seepweed wetlands in the Wuleidaowan national wetland
View through CrossRef
Abstract
As the most active component of soil TOC (Total Organic Carbon), DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) is either adsorbed by the soil and used by plants or transported by soil water into the water column, where it participates in the broader carbon cycle. As a substantial "mobile carbon pool" in soils, its leaching process is an essential pathway for the loss of soil TOC. This paper analysed the investigated the leaching characteristics of soil DOC by simulating leaching in an indoor soil column based on the spatial distribution of soil TOC and DOC contents in order to reveal the leaching and migration characteristics of soil DOC at different depths and its main influencing factors. The DOC content of soil leachate varies somewhat under conditions such as PH and soil phosphorous content. However, the overall trend is that the DOC content of soil leachate generally increases with the depth of the soil layer. The DOC content in the soil leachate gradually decreased with increasing leaching time. In the absence of exogenous carbon recharge, the loss of TOC from the upper layers of the soil was significantly more remarkable due to the prolonged leaching. In addition, soil TOC loss declined after leaching and decreased significantly with increasing soil depth. Because the soil DOC is adsorbed and trapped in other layers during leaching, the DOC in the upper layer was always lost during the leaching test. The experiments used highly concentrated DOC solutions as drench solutions. According to the analysis of the intensity of the fluorescence centres of each soil layer in the three-dimensional fluorescence pattern of the drench solution of each soil layer, the ability of different soil layers to adsorb and retain organic matter of different fractions differs. In addition, the selected soil layers planted with Saline seepweed show a general decreasing trend in the ability to adsorb and retain organic matter as the depth increases.

The DOC content in the soil leachate gradually decreased with increasing leaching time.
In the absence of exogenous carbon recharge, the loss of TOC from the upper layers of the soil was significantly more remarkable due to the prolonged leaching.
In addition, soil TOC loss declined after leaching and decreased significantly with increasing soil depth.
