摘要

The environment of estuarine wetlands has been attracting worldwide attention.To study the spatial distribution of pollutants in the tidal flats of the Yangtze Estuary,Southeast China,the Eastern Tidal Flat of Chongming Island (EC) and the Jiuduansha Shoal (JS) of the estuary were selected as the study sites.At each of the two sites,a cross-transect from land to sea was established and topsoil and soil core samples in the cross-transect were collected spatially and seasonally to determine their contents of heavy metals (Cu,Zn,Pb,Cd,Cr,Ni,Mn,and Fe) and grain-size characteristics.The results showed that the heavy metal loads were commonly higher in the soils of nearshore high tidal fiats and had a tendency of decreasing from land to sea at both of the study sites.The contents of heavy metals in the soils of the high and medial tidal fiats were mostly higher in April and November but lower in July.Corresponding spatial and seasonal variations in grain size of the intertidal soils were also observed at the two study sites.The soils in the nearshore high tidal fiats were finer and gradually got coarser seawards; they were relatively finer in April and November but coarser in July.Furthermore,the contents of heavy metals in the intertidal soils of both the sites EC and JS were significantly positively correlated with the clay (< 2 μm) and 2-20 μm fractions,but negatively with the sand (> 63 μm) and 20-63 μm fractions,which suggested that the heavy metals in the intertidal soils were primarily combined with the fine particulate fraction (< 20 μm),especially clay,and hence the spatial and seasonal variations in heavy metals were actually caused by the change of the grain-size characteristics of the intertidal soils due to the different sedimentary environments in the estuary.The results of this study may also contribute to a better understanding of the soil formation and classification in the tidal fiats of the Yangtze Estuary.
