Abstract: |
Soil dissolved organic matter(SDOM) plays important roles in carbon cycling and transports of organic and inorganic contaminants in a riparian buffer zone. Here we measured soil organic carbon(SOC) and soil dissolved organic carbon(SDOC) contents, excitation-emission matrix(EEM) fluorescence spectrum of SDOM and optical indices in the samples collected across the typical riparian zones in Chongming Island, China. Soil organic carbon in the surface layer(0~30 cm) accounted for 40% of that in the whole soil profile(0~80 cm), and SDOC was 5% of SOC and increased from the upland to the buffer zone. SDOM contains humic-like and protein-like substances, mainly derived from recently dead plant debris. Ground water might also contribute to the SDOM in the riparian zone. Most of humic-like substances were adsorbed on soil minerals. |
