Abstract  

The 1∶250 000 multi-target geochemical survey shows that there is a large area of zinc-rich fluvo-aquic soil in northern Anhui Province, and the study on the distribution law, bioavailability, and influencing factors of zinc in the soil is of great significance to the development of zinc-rich agricultural industries. This study investigated the distribution characteristics, occurrence forms, bioavailability, and influencing factors of zinc in the topsoil at a depth of 0~20 cm and the section soil of 0~200 cm depth of both the fluvo-aquic soil and the lime concretion black soil in northern Anhui Province. The results are as follows: The fluvo-aquic soil has abundant total zinc and moderate available zinc, while the lime concretion black soil lacks the total zinc in general and is rich in available zinc. The total zinc in the fluvo-aquic soil is significantly positively correlated with manganese, organic matter, and phosphorus. The available zinc in both the fluvo-aquic soil and the lime concretion black soil is positively correlated with the available phosphorus and negatively correlated with pH. The zinc in the soil at the depth of 0~200 cm mainly occurs as residuals for both the fluvo-aquic soil and the sand concretion black soil. The total content of the water-soluble and ion-exchangeable zinc that is easily absorbed by plants in the plough layer of the fluvo-aquic soil area accounts for 0.29% of the total zinc content, and the content of iron-manganese oxide bound zinc accounts for 23.62% of the total zinc content. The total zinc is obviously enriched in the soil at a depth of 0~85 cm, which is significantly restricted by the phosphorus and manganese contents in the soil. The total content of the water-soluble and ion-exchangeable zinc in the plough layer of the lime concretion black soil area accounts for 0.41% of the total zinc content, and the total zinc content in the soil at a depth of 0~200 cm slightly changes. This study indicates that the fluvo-aquic soil in the study area has rich total zinc and moderate available zinc and that the available zinc content is mainly restricted by the pH of soil. Therefore, applying conditioners to reduce the pH of soil is an effective way to enhance the bioavailability of zinc in the total-zinc-rich fluvo-aquic soil.
