Abstract

Ground-water quality was monitored for three years at two sites around clay-lined animal waste lagoons on the Delmarva Peninsula. A swine waste lagoon located in an Evesboro loamy sand soil (excessively well-drained) was having a severe impact on ground-water quality. Ammonium nitrogen concentrations above 1000 mg/liter N have been measured in shallow monitoring wells around the lagoon. Chloride and total dissolved solids concentrations were also high. At the second site which has three lagoons and a settling pond in poorly drained soils, some seepage was occurring. Ammonium nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, chloride and total dissolved solids were above background concentrations in some of the monitoring wells. There was a strong correlation between nitrate nitrogen and chloride concentrations in the monitoring wells. The results indicated that clay-lined animal waste lagoons located in sandy loam or loamy sand soils with high water tables may lead to degradation of ground-water quality.

动物粪便泻湖对地下水水质的影响
研究人员在德尔马瓦半岛(Delmarva Peninsula)两处黏土环绕的动物粪便泻湖附近对地下水质量进行了为期三年的监测。位于Evesboro壤土砂土(排水过度良好)的猪粪泻湖对地下水质量产生了严重影响。在泻湖周围的浅监测井中测得的铵态氮浓度超过1000毫克/升。氯化物和总溶解固体浓度也很高。在第二个地点,在排水不良的土壤中有三个泻湖和一个沉淀池,发生了一些渗漏。部分监测井的铵态氮、硝态氮、氯化物和总溶解固形物浓度高于本底。监测井中硝酸盐氮与氯化物浓度之间存在较强的相关性。结果表明,位于地下水位较高的砂壤土或壤土中的粘土层动物粪便泻湖可能导致地下水水质退化。
