“…Grassland use significantly contributes to the nitrogen pollution of the river in its positive correlations with nitrogen variables, indicating that grassland is not a solution to nutrient pollution control (Ouyang et al, 2010). This is consistent with the study of Ahearn et al (2005) and may be linked to grassland distributions in the vicinity of agricultural land uses, distributions that do not prevent nitrogen losses through surface runoff (Kaleel et al, 1980).…”

• Land-use types were correlated well with most nitrogen variables over seasons.• Built-up land dominated in predicting nitrogen variables during different seasons.• Shape metrics predicted most nitrogen variables in different seasons.• Nitrogen sources and their contributions were estimated using nitrate isotopes.• Domestic sewage mainly contributed to river nitrogen pollution in residence zone. This study investigated the effects of land-use patterns on nitrogen pollution in the Haicheng River basin in Northeast China during 2010 by conducting statistical and spatial analyses and by analyzing the isotopic composition of nitrate. Correlation and stepwise regressions indicated that land-use types and landscape metrics were correlated well with most river nitrogen variables and significantly predicted them during different sampling seasons. Built-up land use and shape metrics dominated in predicting nitrogen variables over seasons. According to the isotopic compositions of river nitrate in different zones, the nitrogen sources of the river principally originated from synthetic fertilizer, domestic sewage/manure, soil organic matter, and atmospheric deposition. Isotope mixing models indicated that source contributions of river nitrogen significantly varied from forested headwaters to densely populated towns of the river basin. Domestic sewage/manure was a major contributor to river nitrogen with the proportions of 76.4 ± 6.0% and 62.8 ± 2.1% in residence and farmland-residence zones, respectively. This research suggested that regulating built-up land uses and reducing discharges of domestic sewage and industrial wastewater would be effective methods for river nitrogen control. G R A P H I C

“…Pollution of surface flow and groundwater from the application of animal waste to soils has been documented (Mallin et al, 1997;Mawdsley et al, 1995;Khaeel et al, 1980). Liquid-waste discharge onto soil initiates solute and microbe movement into the soil that follows natural ground water drainage patterns and contaminates adjoining surface water.…”

"Capsule": Polyacrylamide preparations show promise in reducing flow of sediments, nutrients and microorganisms from animal production facilities. AbstractWaste streams associated with a variety of agricultural runoff sources are major contributors of nutrients, pesticides and enteric microorganisms to surface and ground waters. Water soluble anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) was found to be a highly effective erosion-preventing and infiltration-enhancing polymer, when applied at rates of 1-10 g m-3 in furrow irrigation water. Water flowing from PAM treated irrigation furrows show large reductions in sediment, nutrients and pesticides. Recently PAM and PAM + Ca0 and PAM + Al(SO4)3 mixtures have been shown to filter bacteria, fungi and nutrients from animal wastewater. Low concentrations of PAM [175-350 g PAM ha-' as PAM or as PAM + Ca0 and PAM + Al(SO 4) mixture] applied to the soil surface, resulted in dramatic decreases (10 fold) of total, coliform and fecal streptococci bacteria in cattle, fish and swine wastewater leachate and surface runoff. PAM treatment also filtered significant amounts of NH4, PO4 and total P in cattle and swine wastewater. This points to the potential of developing PAM as a water quality protection measure in combination with large-scale animal feeding operations. Potential benefits of PAM treatment of animal facility waste streams include: (1) low cost, (2) easy and quick application, (3) suitability for use with other pollution reduction techniques. Research on the efficacy of PAM for removal of protozoan parasites and viruses and more thorough assessment of PAM degradation in different soils is still needed to completely evaluate PAM treatment as an effective waste water treatment. We will present analysis and feasibility of using PAM, PAM + Al(SO4)3 , and PAM + CaO application for specific applications. Our results demonstrate their potential efficacy in reducing sediment, nutrients and microorganisms from animal production facility effluents. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
