چکیده

این تحقیق به منظور بررسی رابطه بین اشکال مختلف آهن و پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی با تکامل خاک های گچی استان خوزستان صورت گرفت. برای این منظور 14 خاکرخ تشریح و نمونه برداری شده و مقادیر آهن و پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی آن اندازه گیری شد. موقعیت خاکها طوری انتخاب شد که از لحاظ توپوگرافی در موقعیت­های مختلف شیب قرار داشته باشند. نتایج نشان داد که میانگین آهن پدوژنیکی (Fed) و آهن بلوریFeo) - Fed) به ترتیب در خاکرخ های دشت مرتفع با کاربری زارعی، تپه و اراضی پست افزایش یافت که با میزان تکامل آنها هماهنگی دارد. کمترین و بیشترین مقدار اکسیدهای آهن فعالFed) / (Feoبه ترتیب مربوط به تپه یا اینسیلرگ قدیمی و واحدهای اراضی پست با زه‏کشی ضعیف بود. مقایسه میانگین آهن فعال نشان داد که بین واحدهای دشت مرتفع و تپه به دلیل تکامل و سن بیشتر، اختلاف معنی داری وجود نداشت اما در اراضی پست اختلاف معنی داری بین آنها وجود داشت که نشان دهنده تکامل کم این خاک­ها بود. میزان پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی آون در خاکهای تپه، بیشترین و در اراضی پست با شرایط زه‏کشی ضعیف و کاربری زراعی حداقل بود. پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی مینروژیک در خاکرخ‏های متاثر از گچ، پس از حذف آنها افزایش یافت که با مجموع کربنات کلسیم، گچ، مواد آلی و درصد شن رابطه مثبت و معنی دار و با درصد سیلت و رس رابطه معکوس و معنی داری داشت. این روند تاثیر مواد مادری را بر میزان پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی مینروژیک آشکار نموده و نشان می‏دهد که پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی مینروژیک، ارتباط مثبتی با تکامل پدوژنیکی ندارد. همچنین همبستگی بین پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی و مینروژنیک با Feo رابطه منفی و معنی دار و پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی با میزانFeo -Fed  رابطه مثبت و معنی دار نشان داد. این پژوهش نشان داد که کاربری، زه کشی و مواد مادری بیشترین اثر را بر مقادیر پذیرفتاری مغناطیسی و آهن دارند که سبب تغییر خصوصیات ژنتیکی و تکامل خاکهای گچی مورد مطالعه گردیده است.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: The Fe forms diversity is related to parent materials, climate, soil process, biocycles, water table fluctuation, redox, organic matter and etc. in soil. The main Fe forms are Fed (extracted by dithionite citrate bicarbonate), Feo (extracted by oxalate ammonium) and Fe crystals. Feo/ Fed ratio also shows active Fe forms. Magnetic susceptibility (MS) increases when ferri-magnetite is formed due to soil processes. This characteristic (MS) changes with parent material, climate, relief, and organism. Therefore, this study was undertaken to evaluate different Fe forms and MS with soil forming factors in some gypsic soils of Khuzestan province.
Material and Methods: The study area was located in Ramhormoz and Haft-Kel regions in Khuzestan province. Soil moisture and temperature regimes were ustic and hypertermic, respectively. Soil parent material consisted of the eluvial deposit of Gachsaran and Aghajari geological formations. The soil profiles location was selected according to topography map, ETM+ Landsat satellite images, and then 14 soil pedons were dug and described according to the standard methods. All horizons or layers were sampled and 5 pedons were selected for the analysis of different Fe forms. Fed and Feowere, respectively, extracted by citrate-bicarbonate-dithionite (CBD) and oxalate ammonium, and Fe cocentration was then determined by atomic absorption spectrometry. Furthermore, MS was determined by MS2 meter Barlington Dual frequency in low (0.46 kHz) and high (4.6 kHz) frequencies. All MS were calculated for carbonates, gypsum, and OM free. These calculations were also done for Fe forms in these samples. The statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS and Pierson methods between Fe forms and MS. The Duncan’s test was used to compare the mean values.
 
Results and Discussion: Pedons were classified as Entisols, Inceptisols, and Aridisols soil orders. The range of clay content, pHe, ECe, CEC, OM, CCE and gypsum was 15-59%, 7.1-8.5, 0.6-58.1 dS/m, 4.2-22.4 cmol(c)/kg, 0.3-2.4%, 21.2-39.7%, and 0-78.7%, respectively. All epipedons were classified to be ochric and developed soils had cambic diagnostic horizon (Bw) in subsurface. Feo content was maximum in young soil under poor drainage, and minimum Feo content was observed for developed pedons with good drainage class. The sepedons have not been cultivated yet. Feo was maximum at surface soils in all pedons, and decreased with increasing depth. A decreasing trend was observed from surface to subsurface for Fe content in cultivated soils. This negative trend was not, however, detected in poor drainage class or pedons with lithologic discontinuity. This trend can be ascribedto more organic matter content in surface soil in comparison with subsurface soil. Organic matters increase soil acidity and therefore, Feo can not be converted to other Fe forms under this circumstance. Maximum Feo was determined under poor drainage class in low lands. In addition, Fed displayed no trend from the surface to depth at most pedons. Maximum Fed was foundin old plain and the hill slope summit. This Fed was positively strongly correlated with soil development trend. Fed had a positive association with clay content (r=0.463), and negative correlation with sand content (r= -0.411), salinity (r= -0.533), and total carbonate, gypsum and OM (r= - 0.389). Feom (Feo menerogic) was maximum in Byz (4.04 gr/kg soil) and minimum content for Feomwas found in Byb (0.29 gr/kg soil). Maximum andminimum Fedmwas measured in Cy (9.21 g/kg) and Bg2 (1.54 g/kg), respectively. The Feo/ Fed ratio was largerin young soil and decreased with time. These values decreased from the surface to depth with the range from 0.07 to 0.8. The greatest and lowest Feo/ Fedwere, respectively, observed inthe hills and the low lands. There was no significant difference in Feo/ Fed between hill and plain.
MS changed from 5 to 25.5. Maximum and minimum MS was detected in the hills and the low lands. MS decreased with depth in almost all horizons. The highest and lowestMS were, respectively, found in pedon 3 (Byb horizon) and pedon 12 in the Bw3 horizon. The MS minerogenicwas statistically significantly associated to sand content (r=0.56**) and significantly negatively correlated with total carbonates, gypsum, OM (r=-0.667**), silt content (r= -0.506) and clay content (r= -0.456). The positive relationship between sand content and MS can be explained by the effect of magnetic materials inherited from the parent materials.
Conclusion: Fed and Feo- Fed showed a close correlation with soil development. Feo/Fed ratio increased with decreasing soil age. Feo content had a positive correlation with total carbonate, OM, salinity. MS was more in older soils such as hill physiographic unit but it was low in younger soils or soils with weak drainage. MS was greatly affected by sand material size which seems to be linked to parent materials. MS showed no trend with soil development but land use, drainage and parent material largely impacted MS and different Fe forms in these gypsiferous soils.
