[Characteristics and Sources of DOM in Lake Sediments Under Different Inundation Environments].

The characteristics and sources of DOM in sediments are significantly affected by fluctuations in lake water levels. However, the impact of spatial differences on water levels remain unclear. Here, 36 sediment samples were collected from the flood passage and coastal beach of East Dongting Lake. The differences in the composition and source of DOM in sediments under perennial inundation and seasonal inundation were studied using UV-visible absorbance (UV-Vis) and fluorescent excitation-emission matrix (EEM)-parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC). Three fluorescent components of DOM in the sediment were identified. The relative abundance of protein-like components was as high as (72.95±8.94)%, including tryptophan (C2) and tyrosine (C3). However, the humic-like component (C1) abundance was (27.05±8.94)%. Compared with that in perennial inundation, DOM in seasonal inundation had a higher and lower relative abundance of protein-like components and humic-like components, respectively. Further, the aromatic and hydrophobic components were higher in perennial inundation, showing a spatial pattern of the middle>entrance>outlet of the lake, which was more conducive to the migration of pollutants. The high FI (1.93) and BIX (0.91) and low HIX (1.57) indicated that the DOM in sediments had the mixed characteristics of being mainly endogenic and relatively weakly terrigenous. This was mainly influenced by human input and sediment characteristics. The direct effect of sewage discharge was intensified by sediment exposure in the seasonal inundation zone. Additionally, the contents of clay and total nitrogen (TN) were significantly positively correlated with FI, indicating that high nutrients and clay in sediments enhanced the endogenous input of DOM (FI>1.9). The perennial inundation zone was influenced by external runoff input. At the same time, the pH and C/N were significantly positively correlated with HIX and C1, indicating that DOM in the sediments had higher terrigenic characteristics (HIX=1.38±0.57) than those in the seasonal inundation zone owing to the alkaline environment (pH>7.5) and runoff input. The results above revealed the relevant theories of the response of DOM in sediment to water quality and pollution in the process of hydrology and human activities and provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of sediment pollution in lakes.
