Due to manganese mining and slag accumulation, the geological structure of the wetland polluted by heavy metals in Xiangtan Manganese Mine area was seriously damaged, hence biodiversity loss, severe soil, and water pollution, as well as serious heavy metal pollution to food, vegetables, and other natural sources. In order to restore the ecological environment of the mining area, in 2015, the ecological restoration test of heavy metal polluted wetlands in the mining area was carried out. The results showed that the Mn content of different parts of Koelreuteria paniculata root from high to low order: fine root > small root > medium root > large root. The Mn content of different parts of Elaeocarpus decipiens root from high to low order: large root > medium root > small root > fine root. The order of Mn content in plants of the wetland restoration from high to low is as follows: Canna warscewiezii > Thalia dealbata > Boehmeria > Pontederia cordata > Typha orientalis > Nerium oleander > Softstem bulrush > Iris germanica > Acorus calamus > Arundo donax > Phragmites australis; The order of Internal Cu content from high to low is as follows: Acorus calamus > Thalia dealbata > Softstem bulrush > Canna warscewiezii > Typha orientalis > Arundo donax > Boehmeria > Iris germanica > Pontederia cordata > Nerium oleander > Phragmites australis; Zn content from high to low order is as follows: Canna warscewiezii > Acorus calamus > Thalia dealbata > Typha orientalis > Pontederia cordata > Arundo donax > Softstem bulrush > Iris germanica > Boehmeria > Phragmites australis > Nerium oleander; Cd content from high to low order is as follows: Phragmites australis > Softstem bulrush > Thalia dealbata > Nerium oleander > Boehmeria > Canna warscewiezii > Acorus calamus > Iris germanica > Typha orientalis > Pontederia cordata > Arundo donax. The results of this study have provided a theoretical basis and decision-making reference for the evaluation of heavy metals polluted wetland restoration, protection, and reconstruction effects and the selection of ecological restoration modes.

Scop were investigated through batch pot experiments. The results showed that the enrichment effect of Pb was better in Alternanthera Philoxeroides and Acorus tatarinowii with the BCFs of 4.42 and 1.22, and the TFs of 7.84 and 4.23, respectively. The Cr enrichment effects by Nymphaea tetragona, Hydrilla verticillata and Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms were better, which BCFs were 2.69, 1.91 and 3.71, and which TFs were 7.93, 2.07 and 2.18, respectively.

RésuméLe fleuve Orange (Afrique du Sud) est l’un des systèmes fluviaux les plus aménagés au monde : les barrages hydroélectriques ont modifié le volume d’écoulement du fleuve et son débit solide a diminué depuis les années 1930. Plus encore, dans son cours moyen inférieur (secteur d’Upington), le fleuve a été contraint entre des digues de 5 à 10 m de hauteur, des chenaux secondaires ont été remplis pour permettre le développement agricole et plus de 10 déversoirs de bas niveau ont été construits à travers le chenal. Dans des conditions similaires, des changements géomorphologiques visibles et rapides (incision du chenal, alluvionnement, etc.) ont été enregistrés dans divers systèmes fluviaux en région semi-aride. Pourtant, l’étude de cartes anciennes (des années 1920) et de photographies aériennes (à partir de 1937) montre une stabilité remarquable des formes fluviales, et ce, même à petite échelle : des bancs sableux et des seuils rocheux sont facilement reconnaissables dans le chenal principal. L’objectif de cet article est d’explorer les différentes hypothèses expliquant cette stabilité, en utilisant le concept de discontinuité et la théorie de la catastrophe, et de confronter les résultats avec les travaux récents sur le fleuve Orange. Notre recherche est basée sur le calcul des puissances spécifiques des crues vicennales, la reconnaissance de terrain (entre 2000 et 2003) et le prélèvement de sédiments, en utilisant la méthode de la courbe de Passega. Nous avons également effectué des comparaisons entre les photographies aériennes et les cartes anciennes et les photographies aériennes les plus récentes à l’aide des outils SIG (MapInfo). À micro-échelle, la progression et la destruction des roseaux (Phragmites australisetArundo donax) a été utilisée comme indicateur des changements géomorphologiques du chenal. Les résultats montrent que les concepts de stabilité et d’équilibre, et les changements géomorphologiques fluviaux sont plus complexes qu’une simple comparaison statique.

The emergent plants may differ in their capacity to assimilate nutrients from eutrophic water bodies, so the utilization of suitable emergent plants is the key part for successful restoration of shallow eutrophic lakes and rivers. This research applied the depletion method to study the kinetics of uptake of nutrient (H2PO4−, NH4+, NO3−) in different nutrient stresses by the five emergent aquatic plants (Acorus calamus L., Typha orientalis, Lythrum salicaria L., Sagittaria trifolia L., Alisma plantago-aquatica Linn) in the riverine zones of Dashi River (39°30′–39°40′ N, 115°59′–116°5′ E), a shallow eutrophic river located in Fangshan District, Beijing. The results showed that at the three phosphorus levels, A. calamus and A. plantago-aquatica had the highest maximum uptake rate values for NH4+ under low to moderate phosphorus conditions, and high phosphorus, respectively. T. orientalis had the highest maximum uptake rate values for NO3− at all phosphorus concentrations, while the Michaelis-Menten constant values of L. salicaria and A. plantago-aquatica were smaller. At the three nitrogen levels, the maximum uptake rate values for H2PO4− were the greatest for A. plantago-aquatica at the low to moderate nitrogen levels and L. salicaria at high levels. Meanwhile, T. orientalis and L. salicaria had the smallest Michaelis-Menten constant values. In this study, nitrogen microbial transformations, such as nitrification, denitrification and their coupling were not measured and their role in measuring kinetics was not assessed. Thus, achieved results shall be considered as a synthesis of several processes mediated by plants, a theoretical guidance to the selection of plant species for phytoremediation of polluted water bodies with different nutrient stresses for quality improvement around the diverse rivers in Haihe River basin.
