概括
冰川融化对酸盐的水生生态系统产生重大影响. 这项研究表明,大气中酸盐是珠穆朗玛峰地区的主要来源,在冰川湖泊和河流中处理的过程很少.
科学领域:
- 环境科学 环境科学
- 地质化学 地质化学
- 水文学的水文学
背景情况:
- 冰川融化会释放大量的酸盐 (NO3-) 进入下游的水生系统.
- 冰川前的湖泊和河流是来自冰川的酸盐的主要分销商,但它们的内部循环和来源仍然不太清楚.
研究的目的:
- 调查Rongbuk冰川养盆地 (RGB) 冰川湖和河流中酸盐的来源和循环.
- 分析酸盐同位素 (δ15NNO, δ18ONO,和 Δ17ONO),以了解酸盐的起源和转变.
主要方法:
- 在水样中对酸盐同位素 (δ15NNO, δ18ONO,和 Δ17ONO) 的全面分析.
- 在冰川湖泊和河流系统中测量酸盐度.
- 评估同位素特征以推断酸盐来源和生物地化学过程.
主要成果:
- 低酸盐度 (0.43 ± 0.10 mg/L) 表明人为影响最小.
- 由于沉积,冰川湖中的酸盐含量下降,而河流下游的酸盐含量因土壤输入而增加.
- 未加工的大气酸盐的贡献很大 (34.2956.43%),而脱和化是可以忽略不计的.
结论:
- 冰川湖泊在捕获和重新分配来自冰川的酸盐方面发挥着至关重要的作用.
- 大气沉积是RGB前冰系统中酸盐的主要来源.
- 需要在快速变化的高山前冰期环境中对酸盐转化进行进一步的研究.

Precipitation Gravimetry
6.6K
Precipitation gravimetry is based on converting an analyte into a sparingly soluble precipitate, which is separated by filtration and weighed. An ideal precipitate should be pure, insoluble, of known composition, and easily filtered from the reaction mixture.
In determining nickel by gravimetric analysis, a precipitant of ethanolic dimethylglyoxime is added to a hot nickel salt solution. This is quickly followed by the dropwise addition of dilute ammonia solution until precipitation occurs. A...

Overview of Nitrogen Metabolism
8.0K
Nitrogen is a very important element for life because it is a major constituent of proteins and nucleic acids. It is a macronutrient, and in nature, it is recycled from organic compounds and stored in the form of ammonia, ammonium ions, nitrate, nitrite, or nitrogen gas by many metabolic processes. Many of these metabolic processes are carried out only by prokaryotes.

The Nitrogen Cycle
52.4K
Nitrogen atoms, present in all proteins and DNA, are recycled between abiotic and biotic components of the ecosystem. However, the primary form of nitrogen on Earth is nitrogen gas, which cannot be used by most animals and plants. Thus, nitrogen gas must first be converted into a usable form by nitrogen-fixing bacteria before it can be cycled through other living organisms. The use of nitrogen-containing fertilizers and animal waste products in human agriculture has greatly influenced the...
