Abstract:
|
The following document contains a short summary about some hydrogeological
parameters that are important to know the behaviour of groundwater and the main
processes involved in the nitrogen and the carbon cycle and its relation with
underground stored water. The main thesis part is
the explanation of a laboratory
experiment done with riverbed sediments.
The laboratory experiment tries
to control some of the parameters that affect the
riverbed soil in an artificial recharge basin
in or
der to observe how these parameters
modify the soil behaviour referring to the microbial growth. Different compounds were
added to jars that cointain the riverbed soil
and different moisture conditions were
performed;
then soil and gas samples were taken d
uring 50 days at different interval
times. These samples were analysed to find how the nitrogen and the carbon was
changing in the soil.
From the experiment results it is possible to say that, with the conditions applied to the
riverbed soil jars, the nitr
ogen
and carbon
family compounds content was no
despicable and different biochemical processes occurred in the riverbed soil. Carbon
dioxide emissions (and concentrations) showed that the riverbed soil was active during
the experiment and some nitrous oxid
e and
methane was emitted although it is not
possible to say that different moisture conditions or different substrate added modifies
the soil biochemical response with different compound production |
