Abstract:

In order to systematically explore the mobility characteristics of Pb in the soils of the Dongting lake plain and its influence factors, 110 soil samples had been collected in Changde, Yiyang and Zhuzhou city. This study discussed the relationships between mobility of Pb and organic matter, pH, cation exchange capacity (CEC) and other parameters in soils. Based on their correlations, we established prediction models for the mobility of Pb. The results showed that Pb content, pH, organic matter content, CEC and weathering degree were the main factors affecting the mobile fraction and coefficient of Pb. They affected the mobility of Pb by changing the buffer capacity of the soil. Soil Cd content and Zn/Pb ratio were also significantly correlated with the mobile fraction of Pb. The interactions between Cd and Pb were different in different concentration gradients. The mobile fraction of Pb was lower when the soil had a higher Zn/Pb ratio. The multivariate stepwise regression analysis was adopted to establish prediction models for mobile fraction and mobility coefficient of Pb. The presented models had achieved good predicting effectiveness,when mobile fraction of Pb in soils was predicted by soil pH, Pb content, CEC and Na2O/K2O ratio and mobility coefficient of Pb was predicted by pH, CEC, SiO2/Al2O3 ratio.
