Pembukaan lahan di lahan banjiran untuk berbagai kepentingan, mempengaruhi morfologi, siklus hidrologi, dan karakteristik fisika kimia air seperti input dan dekomposisi bahan organik yang akhirnya akan mempengaruhi struktur organisme invertebrata air dan produksi ikan di rawa banjiran. Penelitian ini bersifat percobaan lapangan yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui laju dekomposisi bahan organik dan produksi invertebrata air dilakukan di tiga stasiun di Teluk Rasau, Sumatera Selatan pada bulan September sampai Nopember 2009. Laju dekomposisi bahan organik dan produksi invertebrata air dilakukan dengan metode jaring kantong (litter bag) berukuran 20x10 cm dengan ukuran mata jaring2 mm. Daun dari tumbuhan yang dominan yaitu pohon serpang (Caesalpina sappan) yang hampir gugur dikumpulkan dan ditimbang bobot keringnya, dan 5 g dari daun tersebut dimasukan ke dalam jaring kantong. Pada masing-masing (stasiun) percobaan diletakan 40 kantong jaring dengan posisi20 kantong diletakan pada kedalaman air 0 m (perbatasan air dan darat) dan 20 kantong pada kedalaman 75 cm. Kantong diikatkan tiang kayu dan ditenggelamkan dengan menggunakanpemberat. Pengukuran jumlah bahan organik yang terdekomposisi dan produksi makrozoobenthos dilakukan pada minggu ke-2, 4, 6, 8, dan 10, dengan cara mengangkat empat kantong plastik pada masing-masing kedalaman. Contoh air diambil pada kedalaman 1 m dari dasar perairan denganmenggunakan kemmerer water sampler. Sebagian contoh dianalisis di lapangan (kedalaman air, kecerahan, suhu, pH, dan oksigen terlarut) dan sebagian lagi akan dianalisis di laboratorium (dissolved organic carbon, nitrogen total, dan fosfor total. Persentase serasah daun serpang yang terdekomposisiselama 10 minggu pada kisaran 40-55%. Koefisien laju dekomposisi serasah daun serpang pada muara Teluk Rasau yang berhubungan dengan Sungai Lempuing pada kedalaman 0 cm (k=0,1586) lebih rendah dari stasiun lainnya baik pada kedalaman 0 cm ataupun 75 cm (k=0,2076-0,2566). Produksi makrozobenthos di muara Teluk Rasau yang berhubungan dengan Sungai Lempuing baik pada kedalaman 0 cm ataupun 75 cm (9,25; 117,25 mg bobot kering/m2) secara nyata lebih rendah dari stasiun lainnya (17,75-22,08 mg bobot kering/m2; 260-807 mg bobot kering/m2). Kedalaman air, suhu, alkalinitas total, dan unsur hara sangat mempengaruhi laju dekomposisi serasah dan produksi makrozoobenthos. Clearance of floodplain area for multiple purposes influence morphology, hidrological cycle, and physical and chemical characteristics of water such as input and decomposition of organic matter in the waters. It finally affect the structure community of invertebrate and fish production. Experimental study in order to know decomposition rate of organic matter and aquatic invertebrate production was conducted at three sampling sites located in Teluk Rasau Fisheries Reserve Area of South Sumatera province from September to November 2009. Decomposition rate and invertebrate production was run with litter bag method. Leaf bags were constructed by placing 5 g of Caesalpina sappan in plastic with the size of 20x10 cm and mesh bags (mesh size 2 mm). Leaves were collected before abscission, air dried and stored. In each sampling sites, 20 litter bags were filled with dry leaves and placed on the sediment at water depth 0 m (transition between land and water), and another 20 litter bags were placed on the sediment at 0.75 m water depth. The litter bags were tied to the wood stake and anchored to the bottom. The leaf bags were tied together with a weighted rope and attached to a tree. Four replicate samples were removed after 2 days, to measure the leaching process, and then after 4, 6, 8, and 10 weeks for organic matter decomposition rate and invertebrate production measurement.The bags were cut from the rope and immediately placed in sealed plastic bags and returned to the laboratory. In the laboratory, the leaves were rinsed and separated from the invertebrate. The leaves were sorted by genus, dried at 50°C and weighed. invertebrate were counted and identified to different taxonomic levels. Physical and chemical water quality parameters were measured both in and exsitu by collecting water samples with kemmmerer water sampler at 1 m depth above the bottom. Parameters measured insitu were the water depth, transparency, temperature, pH value, dissolved oxygen, while, dissolved organic carbon, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus were analyzed in the laboratory. Results indicated that decomposition rate of Caesalpina sappan leaves for 10 weeks was in the range of 40-55%. The decomposition rate coefficient in the inlet of Teluk Rasau connevting to Lempuing River at depth 0 cm ((k=0.1586) was less than that in other sampling sites both at depth ocm and 75 cm (k=0.2076-0.2566). Macrozoobenthos production in the inlet of Teluk Rasau connecting to Lempuing River at depth 0 and 75 cm (9.25; 117.25 mg dry weight/m2) were less than that in other sampling sites (17.75-22.08 mg dry weight/m2; 260-807 mg dry weight/m2). Decomposition rate and invertebrate production of Caesalpina sappan were affected by water depth, temperature, total alkalinity, and nutrient.

The mineralisation of organic matter (OM) when sewage sludge was used as amendment in 70 contrasting agricultural soils from Spain was analysed. Soils received a single dose of sewage sludge (equivalent to 50t dry weight ha<sup>-1</sup>) and the O<sub>2</sub> consumption was continuously monitored for 30 days using a multiple sensor respirometer in a laboratory experiment. The cumulative O<sub>2</sub> consumption and rates after 8 and 30 days of incubation (O<sub>2 cum</sub> 8d, 30d and O<sub>2 rate</sub> 8d, 30d), the respiratory quotient (RQ), the maximum O<sub>2</sub> rates over the incubation period (O<sub>2 max</sub>) and time from the beginning of the incubation when O<sub>2 max</sub> occurred (T<sub>max</sub>), were determined in both amended and non-amended soils. Sewage sludge application resulted in increased values for O<sub>2 max</sub>, O<sub>2 rate</sub> 8d, and O<sub>2 cum</sub> 30d. Differences were minor for T<sub>max</sub>, RQ 8d and O<sub>2 rate</sub> 30d. A considerable amount of the initial OM applied was mineralised during the first 8 days. Organic matter decomposition (as expressed by O<sub>2 cum</sub> 30d) was favoured in soils with high values of pH, carbonates, soil organic carbon and low values of amorphous Mn. Soils with these characteristics may potentially lose soil C after sewage sludge application.

The crop-livestock integration (CLI) and crop-livestock-forest integration (CLFI) management systems, have been shown to be viable approaches for increasing carbon sequestration in soils, resulting in the improvement of physical and chemical soil attributes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical attributes and organic matter in soils under Natural Forest (NF) converted to different uses and managed differently: rotational pasture area (PAST), crop-livestock integration (CLI), and crop-livestock-forest integration (CLIF). The research was conducted at the São Paulo farm, in Iracema, located in the south-central region of the state of Roraima, Brazil. The studied soil type was classified as Ultisol. Soil samples were taken by opening ditches and examining layers at 0.1-m depth intervals from surface to 0.60-m depth. Total organic carbon (TOC), chemical and granulometric fractionation of soil organic matter (SOM), oxidizable fractions, and light organic matter in water were analyzed. Our results showed low levels of the analyzed chemical elements, a characteristic of a soil with low natural fertility. This matches conditions inherent in source material, weathered by high rainfall, a warm and humid climate, and flat topographic relief. In the 0-0.1 m layer, the PAST and CLI systems had the highest TOC contents relative to the other systems studied. At other depths, there were no statistical differences among TOC levels. The highest concentration of C in the particulate fraction (POC) was noted in the surface layer in all management systems. The pasture system had the highest concentration POC in the top 0.10 m. Our results also showed that the upper 0.10 m of soil in NF contained the lowest content of organic carbon associated with mineral (MOC) relative to the managed agrosystems. In addition, humin provided the largest contribution to SOM in all evaluated management systems. The crop-livestock integration (CLI) and crop-livestock integration forest (CLIF) systems, emerged as a strong alternative to carbon incorporation and subsequently the improvement of physical and chemical soil attributes. The objective of this work to evaluate the chemical attributes and organic matter in soils under Natural forest (NF) converted into different use and management systems: pasture (PAST), crop-livestock Integration (CLI) and crop-livestock Integration forest (CLIF). The research was conducted at São Paulo farm in Iracema, located in the Center-South region of the State of Roraima, Brazil. The soil studied was classified as Argissolo Amarelo Distrófico. The samples were taken by the opening of trenches in layers of 0-0.10, 0.10- 0.20, 0.20- 0.40, and 0.40-0.60 m depth. Total organic carbon (TOC), chemical and granulometric fractionation of soil organic matter (SOM), oxidizable fractions and organic matter in water were analyzed. The results showed low levels of the analyzed chemical elements which characterizes soils with low natural fertility, which matches the conditions of the source material, high rainfall and regional temperature, as well as the flat local relief. In the 0-0.1 m layer, the PAST and CLI systems had the highest TOC contents when compared to the other systems studied, in the other depths there were no statistical differences between the TOC levels. The highest amount of C in the particulate fraction (COp) was verified in the surface layer in all evaluated management systems. The pasture area was the system with the greatest contribution of COp to the depth of 0-0.0 m. In relation to the carbon content associated with minerals (COam), the results showed that the depth of 0-0.05 m NF area presented the lowest levels when compared to the other systems. Regarding the humic substances, there was a larger contribution of humin in all evaluated systems.

The need for reliable planting techniques that encourage posttransplant root growth in adverse conditions has prompted research into planting above soil grade (above-grade). Container-grown Morella cerifera (L.) Small (syn. Myrica cerifera L.) (wax myrtle), Illicium floridanum Ellis (Florida anise tree), and Kalmia latifolia L. (mountain laurel) plants were planted in Horhizotrons (root observation chambers) in a greenhouse in Auburn, AL, on 1 Mar. 2006, 6 June 2006, and 3 Jan. 2007, respectively. The experiment was repeated with all three species being planted 18 June 2007. Horhizotrons contained four glass quadrants extending away from the root ball providing a nondestructive method for measuring root growth of the same plant into different rhizosphere conditions. Each quadrant was filled with a native sandy loam soil in the lower 10 cm. The upper 10 cm of the quadrants were filled randomly with: 1) milled pine bark (PB); 2) peat (P); 3) cotton gin compost (CGC); or 4) more native soil with no organic matter (NOM). Horizontal root lengths (HRL, length measured parallel to the ground from the root ball to the root tip) of the five longest roots visible along each side of a quadrant were measured weekly for M. cerifera and I. floridanum and biweekly for K. latifolia. These measurements represented lateral growth and penetration of roots into surrounding substrates on transplanting. When roots of a species neared the end of the quadrant, the experiment was ended for that species. M. cerifera had the fastest rate of lateral root growth followed by I. floridanum and then by K. latifolia. In most cases, roots grew initially into the organic matter rather than the soil when organic matter was present. In general, HRL and root dry weight (RDW) of I. floridanum and K. latifolia were greatest in PB and P, whereas for M. cerifera, these were greatest in P. Differences in root growth among substrates were not as pronounced for M. cerifera as for the other species, perhaps as a result of its rapid increase in HRL. Increased root growth in PB and P may be attributed to the ideal physical and chemical properties of these substrates. Results suggest that planting above soil grade with organic matter may increase posttransplant root growth compared with planting at grade with no organic matter.

Abstract. Litter decomposition plays a vital role in wetland carbon cycling. However, the contribution of aboveground litter decomposition to the wetland soil organic carbon (SOC) pool has not yet been quantified. Here, we conducted a Carex brevicuspis leaf litter input experiment to clarify the intrinsic factors controlling litter decomposition and quantify its contribution to the SOC pool at different water levels. The Carex genus is ubiquitous in global freshwater wetlands. We sampled this plant leaf litter at −25, 0, and +25 cm relative to the soil surface over 280 d and analysed leaf litter decomposition and its contribution to the SOC pool. The percentage litter dry weight loss and the instantaneous litter dry weight decomposition rate were the highest at +25 cm water level (61.8 %, 0.01307 d−1), followed by the 0 cm water level (49.8 %, 0.00908 d−1), and the lowest at −25 cm water level (32.4 %, 0.00527 d−1). Significant amounts of litter carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus were released at all three water levels. Litter input significantly increased the soil microbial biomass and fungal density but had nonsignificant impacts on soil bacteria, actinomycetes, and the fungal∕bacterial concentrations at all three water levels. Compared with litter removal, litter addition increased the SOC by 16.93 %, 9.44 %, and 2.51 % at the +25, 0, and −25 cm water levels, respectively. Hence, higher water levels facilitate the release of organic carbon from leaf litter into the soil via water leaching. In this way, they increase the soil carbon pool. At lower water levels, soil carbon is lost due to the slower litter decomposition rate and active microbial (actinomycete) respiration. Our results revealed that the water level in natural wetlands influenced litter decomposition mainly by leaching and microbial activity, by extension, and affected the wetland surface carbon pool.

Peatlands are soil environments that accumulate water and organic carbon and function as records of paleo-environmental changes. The variability in the composition of organic matter is reflected in their morphological, physical, and chemical properties. The aim of this study was to characterize these properties in peatlands from the headwaters of the Rio Araçuaí (Araçuaí River) in different stages of preservation. Two cores from peatlands with different vegetation types (moist grassland and semideciduous seasonal forest) from the Rio Preto [Preto River] headwaters (conservation area) and the Córrego Cachoeira dos Borges [Cachoeira dos Borges stream] (disturbed area) were sampled. Both are tributaries of the Rio Araçuaí. Samples were taken from layers of 15 cm, and morphological, physical, and chemical analyses were performed. The 14C age and δ13C values were determined in three samples from each core and the vertical growth and organic carbon accumulation rates were estimated. Dendrograms were constructed for each peatland by hierarchical clustering of similar layers with data from 34 parameters. The headwater peatlands of the Rio Araçuaí have a predominance of organic material in an advanced stage of decomposition and their soils are classified as Typic Haplosaprists. The organic matter in the Histosols of the peatlands of the headwaters of the Rio Araçuaí shows marked differences with respect to its morphological, physical, and chemical composition, as it is influenced by the type of vegetation that colonizes it. The peat from the headwaters of the Córrego Cachoeira dos Borges is in a more advanced stage of degradation than the peat from the Rio Preto, which highlights the urgent need for protection of these ecosystems/soil environments.

Spring Freshet

Estimates of the amount of material moving annually from terrestrial ecosystems to the ocean are largely based on an incomplete understanding of events occurring throughout the hydrologic year, and only a vague comprehension of in-stream processes controlling that export. Discharge, suspended sediment, particulate organic matter (POM; > 0.5 μm), dissolved organic carbon (DOC; <0.5 μm diameter), and the percentage of organic matter were measured from 1979 to 1981 in five pristine Quebec streams: First Choice Creek (1st order; watershed area: 0.25 km2), Beaver Creek (2nd order; 1.83 km2), Muskrat River (5th order; 204 km2), Matamek River (6th order; 673 km2), and the Moisie River (9th order; 19 871 km2). All streams, with the exception of First Choice Creek, have a strong spring freshet when 43–55% of the annual discharge occurs. By describing sediment and organic carbon export throughout the annual hydrologic cycle, 1 showed that during the 2-mo spring freshet 71–92% of the annual sediment load is exported but only 59–65% of the annual POM load, and only 47–51% of the annual DOC load. Sediment yield is relatively constant between watersheds (1.5–7.6 g∙m−2∙yr−1), as is POM export (1.0–6.7 g ash-free dry-weight [AFDW]∙m−2∙yr−1); however, export DOC varies from 3.1 g C∙m−2∙yr−1 in First Choice Creek to 48.4 g C∙m−2∙yr−1 in Beaver Creek. There appears to be rapid loading of carbon between 1st- and 2nd-order streams in boreal forests, followed by biological and physical processing as watershed area increases. Thus, for the Moisie River watershed, export of total organic carbon (TOC) is reduced to only 4.7 g C∙m−2∙yr−1. Export of coarse particulate organic matter (> 1 mm) is negligible (normally < 0.1 mg∙L−1), as is oxidation of the suspended load (< 0.5%∙d−1). Effects of summer storms, natural diel variations, and depth of sample from the water column are shown to have a minimal influence on concentrations. Rating curves (kg∙d−1 vs. discharge) are developed to estimate the annual yield of sediment, POM, and DOC, and to evaluate long-term variations. From the results I suggest that in-stream processing and retention devices exert considerable control over the quantity and nature of suspended organic material. Physical processes such as the discharge regime and stream power are relatively less important in determining organic concentrations, but more important in determining sediment concentrations.Key words: seston, carbon, sediment, boreal forest, watershed, river, stream, export

This study was conducted to examine the CH4 emission in the core zone and the effects of water and soil physical and chemical characteristics and water depth on CH4 emission in U Minh Thuong National Park, Kien Giang Province. The study was carried out from September, 2016 to November, 2016. The CH4 was collected by closed chambers. The results showed that the soil had a low pH (3.89 - 5.12), a high total phosphorus (0.1 % P2O5) and lower potential redox (from -186 to -145 mV). The organic matter (54.6 %) and total nitrogen (1.15 %) were high in thick peat layers. The organic matter (2.15 - 3.93 %) and total nitrogen (0.1 %) were low in thin or no peat layer. The surface water was polluted by organic matter and was not suitable for domestic use (QCVN 08-MT: 2015/BTNMT column A2). CH4 emission in clay based and peat land based Melaleuca forest areas were 106 mg.m-2.h-1 and 135 mg.m-2.h-1, respectively. The CH4 emission was not correlated with either water and soil physical and chemical characteristics or water depth, but might be correlated microbial factors. We need to study water, soil characteristics, CH4 emission of months in years.

<p>Considering the discrepancies in the reports on seasonal changes in the content of  dissolved organic carbon, this paper concerns the research which aimed at defining the content and seasonal changes in dissolved organic matter (DOM) in arable and meadow soils in moderate climate conditions. The research has involved the soils sampled in the kujawsko-pomorskie province (Poland). Gleic Phaeozems (meadow soils), Brunic Arenosols and Eutric Cambisols were sampled from the depth of 0-30 cm, 30-60 cm and 60-100 cm, November 2011 through September 2013. The soil samples were analyzed for dry weight content, pH, content of total organic carbon and total nitrogen. DOM was extracted with 0.004 mol·dm<sup>-3</sup> CaCl<sub>2</sub>, in the extracts the content of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and dissolved nitrogen (DNt) were assayed. The share of DOC was determined by the soil management. The analysis of variance did not show significant differences in the content of TOC and Nt across the soil sampling dates. Were recorded changes in DOC and DNt between successive sampling dates; for topsoil for DOC – from -12.06% to 13.34% (meadow soils) and for DNt  -40.84% to 47.44% (arable soils).</p><p><strong> </strong></p>
