    Abstract The release of trace metals caused by industrial effluents and anthropogenic activities has been recorded in the Xixi River estuary, southern China. However, a thorough understanding of the behavior of trace heavy metals in Xixi River sediments is lacking. A total of 12 sediment cores were collected in June and December in the upper estuary section and mouth of the estuary. Here, an in situ high-resolution sampling technique, namely, diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT), was employed to acquire profiles of trace element concentrations and the release of bioavailable metals from sediments in different seasons. A three-step Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) sequential extraction method was used to explore the chemical speciation of trace metals in different seasons and to thereby assess the release potential of trace elements in sediments. The BCR sequential extraction results showed that the trace metals Fe, Mn, Co and Pb were mainly in the residual fraction, which rarely influences living organisms. The total mobile fractions (F1 + F2 + F3) of all trace metals were higher in winter than in summer, suggesting that accumulation occurred from summer to winter. DGT measurements showed that the intensity of sulfate reduction was higher in summer than in winter because of the high temperatures and high organic matter in summer. The intensity of sulfate and Mn(III/IV) reduction increased from the upper estuary section to the lower estuary. Fe(III) reduction decreased in summer but increased slowly in winter. The Pearson correlation results showed that the release of DGT-labile Co in pore water was related to Mn(III/IV) reduction, while the release of DGT-labile Pb was basically not controlled by the Fe-Mn-S redox transition. Abnormally high DGT-labile Pb concentrations were observed at the sampling station (XR3) closest to the estuary in winter, which might have been caused by the high Pb content in the local micro-sediments.

    Abstract A large number of urban wetland parks have been established, but knowledge about the effects of tourism development on the microbial diversity and ecosystem functioning remains limited. This study aimed to clarify the responses of bacterial communities to tourism development targeted the Xixi National Wetland Park, China. By analyzing the diversity, composition, assembly pattern, and environmental drivers of bacterial communities, we found that tourism development considerably affected the water quality, which further decreased the α-diversity but increased the β-diversity in open areas for landscaping and recreation. Specifically, there was higher Simpson dissimilarity across functional wetland areas, indicating that species replacement mainly explained β-diversity patterns of bacterial communities. RDA analysis and ecological processes quantification further suggested that TOC and TC were the major factors in the open areas driving bacterial communities in water and sediment, respectively. Also, typical anti-disturbance taxa (Gammaproteobacteria) and potential pathogens (Bacillus) were enriched in the wetlands under more anthropogenic disturbances. Findings of the present study highlighted the effects of tourism development on bacterial communities resulted in obvious spatial variation in the Xixi National Wetland Park. This study gives us useful information for ecological assessments of urban wetlands, and further can provide references in making appropriate strategies to manage wetland ecosystems.

    Abstract Objective: To understand the endemic dynamic and situation of schistosomiasis in the Xixi National Wetland Park.
    Methods: The surveillances of Oncomelania hupensis snail situation and the schistosome infection status of the permanent residents and floating population in the Xixi National Wetland were conducted annually from 2012 to 2014 according to the Surveillance Programs of Schistosomiasis in Surveillance Sites of Zhejiang Province.
    Results: From 2012 to 2014, accumulatively 12.31 hm2 of area, 4965 m2 of vegetation and 75,379 alien plants were surveyed in the Xixi National Wetland Park, and no Oncomelania snails were found. The seropositive rates in the permanent residents and floating population were 0.71% (5/706) and 1.36% (25/1 834), respectively, and 1 imported chronic schistosomiasis case was found in 2014. Totally 3 006 floating personnel were involved in the investigation of infection status and awareness on knowledge of schistosomiasis control in 2013, the sero-positive rate was 0.63% (19/3 006), and the rates of those from endemic and non-endemic areas were 1.00% (15/1 503) and 0.27% (4/1 503), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 6.41, P < 0.05). The results of the fecal examinations among the seropositive cases were all negative. The awareness rates on the Regulation of Schistosomiasis Control and Prevention as well as related knowledge about Oncomelania snails were low. The indoor survival experiment of Oncomelania snails showed the survival rates of Oncomelania snails were 58.33% and 1.25% after observing for 3 and 6 months respectively.
    Conclusions: The Xixi National Wetland Park is suitable for Oncomelania snails to inhabit and breed. The imported cases in floating population pose a serious threat to the endemic situation of schistosomiasis in local. In the future, the surveillance on snails and floating population as well as the health education should be strengthened.

    Abstract Constraining the timing of the postglacial transgression is of great significance to the origin of coastal wetlands distributed extensively in eastern China. The high-resolution chronological sequence from Xixi Wetland enabled us to explore interactions among the postglacial transgression, sedimentary response, and human activities in the surrounding Hangzhou Bay. Diversities of 12 ostracods, 24 foraminifera and remains of oyster shells, gastropods, testate amoebae, diatoms, and vascular plants are indicative of the sedimentary facies. Grain size variables together with microfaunal records revealed seven stages of sedimentary evolution since the middle Late Pleistocene: initial riverbed, first transgression event, floodplain, early lagoon, shallow marine bay, late lagoon, and final freshwater marsh. The Xixi Basin experienced two distinct transgression events and sea-level changes inferred from assemblages of ostracods and foraminifera. The first transgression event is a minor transgression related to the moderate intensity of Asian Monsoon and moderately high sea level during the early MIS 3. The second large-scale transgression event established the sedimentary pattern of the modern Xixi Basin. The finding of the transgression maximum in the early Holocene (about 11.0–7.0 cal ka BP) highlighted the problem of reliable time of high sea level, which is tightly related to the strong Asian Monsoon intensity and global rising sea level. Subsequent changes in the sedimentary environment played a key role on the Neolithic human activities around the Hangzhou Bay. The origin of the Xixi Wetland reflected the combined effects of a sand barrier and rising human activities since the middle Holocene.

    Abstract Urban wetland parks are a new type of urban park that have developed rapidly in recent years and have caught the attention of multiple governmental departments. The objective of this paper was to describe the trophic states of creeks and their relationship to water levels in an urban wetland park in Xixi, China. The study was based on temporal and spatial data collected monthly between March 2009 and March 2010. The results indicated that: (1) water quality significantly changed from upstream to downstream in study creeks. From upstream to downstream, water quality of creeks I and III improved; however, the water quality of creek IV and V declined; (2) trophic states in Xixi creeks differed according to seasons. Overall, the nutrition in creeks was measured at the slight eutrophication level. Nutrition was highest in summer and lowest in winter; (3) the relationship between water quality and water level differed dramatically between creeks. Water quality and water level in creek I was significantly negatively correlated, while no obvious trends were observed in other creeks. In order to improve water quality in creeks, the valid technique is to strengthen the management of inflowing water quality and then control water levels.

    Abstract As the first national wetland park and the representatively urban wetland, Xixi wetland must provide the services of tourism and recreation especially. Based on the data which had been collected monthly from March to August in 2009, the objectives of this paper were to describe the characteristics of water quality in temporally and spatially. The results indicated that: (1) the characteristics of water quality in spatially are significantly corrected with the function of wetland. Total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) average concentrations are 0.78 mg/L and 0.07 mg/L respectively in natural ponds, while the concentrations of TN and TP in ornamental ponds are 1.37 mg/L and 0.17 mg/L respectively. The concentrations of TN and TP are 2.91 mg/L and 0.18 mg/L in natural streams and 1.91 mg/L and 0.09 mg/L in sight-seeing streams; (2) the nutrition in Xixi wetland is different in temporally. The nutrition in Xixi is at the level of moderate eutrophication, while the nutrition is higher in summer than it in spring; (3) the level of eutrophication in pounds is lower than it in streams, of which the level of eutrophication in natural ponds is lower than it in ornamental ponds and the level of eutrophication in natural streams is higher than it in sight-seeing streams by contraries. In order to improve water quality in Xixi wetland, the valid measure is to strengthen the management of ornamental ponds and natural streams.
