Research Abstract

Artificially contaminated soils that were contaminated by mercury based on 100 ppm ,10ppm as mercury concentration were made by using typical soil in Japan( Kuroboku soil, Brown forest soil, Red yellow soil) with stabilization of 6 month. These soils were utilized almost 3months in our environmental factor incubation experiments, and then we were investigated as for chemical changes of mercury in each soils. As a result of experiments, the variations of total mercury concentrations of each soil were not recognized in comparison with starting point of the incubation experiment. However, methylmercury content of Kuroboku soil(100ppm) was clearly increased chronologically. In case of 10ppm, methylmercury concentration of Redyellow soil was higher than other soils. Also, dissolved mercury concentrations of Redyellow soils (100ppm, 10ppm) were higher than other soils that were contaminated by mercury artificially.
