摘要

Microbial mineralization of polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Long Island Sound sediments was examined to better understand how environmental processes that cause changes in redox conditions will influence mineralization rates.; Sediment resuspension into overlying oxic water increased both the rate and the total fraction of PAH mineralized for 3 PAHs measured in experimental sediment water microcosms. Subsequent desorption experiments indicated that slower than predicted mineralization of naphthalene may be due to greater resistance to desorption of naphthalene from sediment matrices and may result in sub-equilibrium porewater concentrations. First order rate constants normalized to either aqueous concentrations in whole microcosms and those predicted for porewaters were within the same order of magnitude for all three compounds, suggesting that availability is an important control on mineralization and that all three PAHs may be similarly labile in the aqueous phase.; In thin sediment plugs, microbial mineralization of both 14C-phenanthrene and 14C-naphthalene again Strongly correlated with exposure to oxygen. First order rate constants under continuously oxic conditions were 0.049 d−1 for phenanthrene and 0.24 d−1 for naphthalene. Modeled rate constants based upon total fraction of time under oxic and anoxic conditions and rates taken from end-member sediment plugs correlated well with measured rate constants for oscillating treatments.; Partitioning of phenanthrene and naphthalene between sediments and porewater in plug experiments varied under different redox conditions. For both compounds, increased exposure to anoxic conditions decreased the fraction of PAHs found in porewater, which could be partially responsible for lower mineralization rates under anaerobic conditions since porewater PAH is generally accepted to be the bioavailable pool. Partitioning of phenanthrene was typically within the range predicted by equililibrium partitioning whereas partitioning of naphthalene into the sediment porewater was less than what would be predicted by equilibrium partitioning.; Addition of freshly killed phytoplankton stimulated overall bacterial activity in sediment seawater slurries this increased enzymatic activity correlated With increased mineralization of 14C-phenanthrene in carbon amended sediments compared to non-amended sediments. Calculations indicate that inputs of labile carbon resulting from redox oscillation could be quantitatively similar to those associated with phytoplankton blooms and were on the same order as amendments in these experiments.
