  • simplified method for the in situ collection and laboratory analysis of cosmogenic tracers Sulfur 35 and sodium 22 to determine residence time distributions and water ages
    Analytical Chemistry, 2021
    Co-Authors: A Deinhart, Richard K Bibby, A Visser, Melissa Thaw, K J Thomas
    Abstract:

    The use of cosmogenically produced Sulfur-35 (T1/2 = 87 days) and sodium-22 (T1/2 = 2.6 years) as intrinsic tracers can provide valuable information on catchment hydrology, flow paths, and subsurface storage. A new and straightforward method was created to determine the activities of both 35S and 22Na in various water sources by pumping large volumes (up to 1000 L) of water through cation- and anion-exchange resin columns in the field to collect sodium and sulfate ions and simple chemistry in the lab. Samples are counted for 35S using liquid scintillation counting (LSC) and for 22Na via γ spectroscopy. Our novel in situ method provides faster sample throughput as well as better counting statistics and lower detection limits. Both methods were successfully applied at the Southern Sierra Critical Zone Observatory.

  • transformation of sulfate and organic s in rice straw in flooded paddy soils and its availability to plants using Sulfur 35 labeling
    Geoderma, 2006
    Co-Authors: Wei Zhou, H E Ping, Bao Lin
    Abstract:

    Abstract Sulfur transformation and its availability to plants in two flooded paddy soils, derived from Black soil in Heilongjiang (soil 1) and from Red earth in Jiangxi (soil 2), were investigated in a closed incubation system using carrier-free 35 S–SO 4 2− and 35 S-labeled rice straw. After incubation for 120 days, 51.1% and 60.3% of the 35 S added in the Na 2 35 SO 4 treatment were found in the sulfate–S fraction, 14.0% and 11.1% as sulfide–S, 5.2% and 5.3% as other non-sulfate inorganic S fraction (OI-S), 9.5% and 6.0% as C–O–S, 8.1% and 7.3% as C-bonded S, and 12.1% and 10.0% as non-reducible organic S fraction (NRO-S) for soil 1 and soil 2, respectively. Since soil Eh increased greatly after planting the rice, sulfide–S and OI-S could be transformed into sulfate as plant-available S. Most of the 35 S uptake by plants came from sulfate– 35 S, sulfide35 S and OI– 35 S, with little contribution from C–O– 35 S, C-bonded 35 S or NRO– 35 S. In the treatment with 35 S-labeled rice straw, 23.3% and 26.4% of the 35 S applied was found in the sulfate–S fraction, 25.3% and 26.3% as sulfide–S, 6.0% and 6.1% as OI-S, 16.4% and 14.0% as C–O–S, 10.1% and 8.3% as C-bonded S, and 18.9% and 18.9% as NRO-S at 120th day of incubation in these two soils, respectively. Higher availability of C–O– 35 S, C-bonded 35 S and NRO– 35 S from 35 S-labeled straw was observed in the 35 S-labeled straw treatment, compared to the carrier-free Na 2 35 SO 4 treatment.
