Biochar effects on soil aggregation, phosphorus distribution, and colloidal phosphorus content in paddy soils: a comparative study
Journal of Soils and Sediments(2024)
摘要
Soil colloids significantly influence the transfer of phosphorus (P) from agricultural lands to aquatic ecosystems. Nevertheless, the impact of soil amendments, such as biochar, on colloidal P release and mobilization is not fully understood. This study aimed to explore how biochar amendments affect the dynamics of soil colloidal P in paddy soils, particularly focusing on the interaction between soil aggregation and colloidal P mobilization. We conducted a soil incubation experiment to investigate the effects of rape straw-derived biochar (SBC) and chicken manure-derived biochar (MBC) on soil aggregate stability, P distribution, and colloidal P content in paddy soils with different fertility levels. Soil aggregates were fractionated using wet sieving and sedimentation methods, whereas colloidal P was determined through ultracentrifugation. Our findings demonstrated that both MBC and SBC addition increased soil aggregation by promoting the formation of larger aggregates (> 250 μm and 53–250 μm), while reducing the proportion of smaller soil aggregates (< 2 μm, 2–20 μm, and 20–53 μm). Biochar addition led to an increased allocation of P in soil aggregates of > 250 μm and 53–250 μm, with the observed rise in total P content primarily attributed to the inherent P within the added biochar. MBC exhibited a more pronounced impact on soil P dynamics than SBC. Despite enhanced soil aggregation, MBC addition substantially increased soil colloidal P and dissolved P, suggesting potential environmental risks associated with P loss. The elevated degree of P saturation resulting from MBC addition appeared to play a more critical role in regulating soil colloidal P release and mobilization. Our study highlights the importance of carefully considering the long-term application of P-enriched biochar in paddy soils, as this practice may lead to P loss even in the presence of increased soil aggregate stability.
