[δ¹⁵N-NO₃⁻ and δ¹⁸O-NO₃⁻ Tracing of Nitrate Sources in Beijing Urban Rivers].
2016
: In order to quantitatively identify sources of nitrate pollution in Beijing urban area and provide effective guidance for relevant departments to control the pollution of Beijing rivers, δ¹⁵N-NO₃⁻ and δ¹⁸O-NO₃⁻ isotope tracing method was used to analyze the composition of nitrogen and oxygen stable isotopes from nitrate in Beijing urban river. Besides, stable isotope mixing model was adopted to track nitrogen sources of nitrate in Beijing urban rivers and the contribution rates of respective pollution sources were evaluated. The results showed that: (1) NO₃⁻-N pollution was the main inorganic nitrogen pollution in Beijing rivers and pollution of downstream was more serious than that of upstream. (2) δ¹⁵N-NO₃⁻ in Beijing urban surface rivers was in range of 6.26 per thousand-24.94 per thousand, while δ¹⁸O-NO₃⁻ ranged -0.41 per thousand-11.74 per thousand; δ¹⁵N-NO₃⁻ increased from upstream to downstream along the flow of the surface water. (3) The nitrate pollution composition of Beijing rivers could be gained from the stable isotope mixing model. The average contribution rates of manure and sewage, soil nitrate and atmospheric deposition were 61.2%, 31.5% and 7.3%, respectively.
