摘要

Abstract

Silicon (Si) is an important element in aquatic ecosystems. Based on the observed data in the Huanghe (Yellow) River Basin

a forward model was used to evaluate the silicate weathering rate in the Huanghe River Basin. The effects of silicate weathering

damming

and land use change on the Si concentration and flux were analyzed. Results show that the dissolved Si (DSi) concentration decreased first and then increased

and was 0.82–2.96 mg/L. As a silicon source in the Huanghe River Basin

the silicate weathering rate in the upper reaches of Lanzhou was high

and a large amount of DSi was transported to the lower reaches. Agricultural irrigation in the middle reaches caused a large amount of DSi loss

and the interception of large-scale cascade reservoirs caused a large amount of DSi retention. The DSi released by sediment re-suspension due to high runoff scouring in the downstream channel also served as a silicon source to supplement the DSi flux transported to the sea. Suspended particulate matter and biogenic Si (BSi) increased first and then decreased in the ranges of 24.1–1 590.7 mg/L and 0.08–2.17 mg/L

respectively

due mainly to severe soil erosion in the eastern Loess Plateau

which caused significant amounts of phytoliths to enter the water.
