Transfer Characteristic and Source Identification of Soil Heavy Metals from Water-Level-Fluctuating Zone Along Xiangxi River, Three-Gorges Reservoir Area
Transfer characteristics of heavy metals and their evaluation of potential risk were studied based on determining concentration of heavy metal in soils from water-level-fluctuating zone (altitude:145-175 m) and bank(altitude:175-185 m) along Xiangxi River,Three Gorges Reservoir area.Factor analysis-multiple linear regression (FA-MLR) was employed for heavy metal source identification and source apportionment.Results demonstrate that,during exposing season,the concentration of soil heavy metals in water-levelfluctuation zone and bank showed the variation,and the concentration of soil heavy metals reduced in shallow soil,but increased in deep soil at water-level-fluctuation zone.However,the concentration of soil heavy metals reduced in both shallow and deep soil at bank during the same period.According to the geoaccumulation index,the pollution extent of heavy metals followed the order:Cd ＞ Pb ＞ Cu ＞ Cr,Cd is the primary pollutant.FA and FA-MLR reveal that in soils from water-level-fluctuation zone,75.60％ of Pb originates from traffic,62.03％ of Cd is from agriculture,64.71％ of Cu and 75.36％ of Cr are from natural rock.In soils from bank,82.26％ of Pb originates from traffic,68.63％ of Cd is from agriculture,65.72％ of Cu and 69.33％ of Cr are from natural rock.In conclusion,FA-MLR can successfully identify source of heavy metal and compute source apportionment of heavy metals,meanwhile the transfer characteristic is revealed.All these information can be a reference for heavy metal pollution control.
