Abstract

The migration of land-based pollutants in tidal flat sediments has an important impact on the marine ecological environment. The effects of three influent concentrations and two cation valence states on the preferential transport of NO3-N in the sediments of the Yellow River Estuary were studied by soil column experiments. Results showed that the preferential flow and solute transport were more obvious with the increase of influent concentration; The solute potential was increased in the process of solute transport, which led to the rapid flow, shortened the total time, and facilitated the solute transport speed in the soil; The cation in the sediment of the Yellow River Estuary has little effect on the transport of nitrate nitrogen, and the initial penetration time of the penetration curve using Ca (NO3)2 as tracer was a little later than that using KNO3 as tracer, but it is not obvious.
