“…An important factor influencing the COS uptake rates might be the soil microorganisms. Previous studies showed that microorganisms played a big role in COS uptake by soils [ Bremner and Banwart , 1976; Kluczewski et al , 1985; Lehmann and Conrad , 1996; Kesselmeier et al , 1999]. Bremner and Banwart [1976] reported that COS uptake rates by intact soil were 50‐fold faster than those by sterilized soil.…”

[1] The uptake rates of carbonyl sulfide (COS) by soils in subtropical forests with different successional stages were measured using static chambers in Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve (DBR) in south China from July 2004 to March 2005. The three typical tropical forests studied included monsoon evergreen broad-leaf forest (BF), pine and broad-leaf mixed forest (MF) and pine forest (PF), representing forests with different succession stages in the region. COS exchange rates were also compared between the plots with litter-fall remaining (plots L) and those with litter-fall removed (plots S) in each forest. Results showed that these forest soils all acted as sinks for COS with exchange rates of À1. ). Significant correlation was observed between the COS uptake rates and soil respiration rates or microbial biomass, indicating that microbial activity was an important factor controlling the soil uptake of COS. Significant correlations between COS fluxes and initial COS mixing ratios were only observed in the BF and MF. COS fluxes showed no correlation with soil temperature or water content alone in any of the three forests, but do correlate well with soil temperature and water content together in polynomial forms with an order of 2.

“…Previous studies noted that moist soils are more efficient at sorbing OCS than dry ones Kluczewski et al, 1985], and it is possible that at least a portion of the OCS consumed by moist soils was due to OCS hydrolysis. However, OCS hydrolysis is too slow to account for the rates measured here [Ferm, 1957], especially since hydrolysis is enhanced under alkaline conditions and soils in the GfirdsjOn area are acidic (pH<5) [Olsson et al, 1985].…”

Abstract.A static enclosure method was used to determine the role of saturated and unsaturated soils and soil-plant systems in carbonyl sulfide exchange with the atmosphere. The influence of several environmental factors on these exchange processes was also investigated by measuring fluxes in catchments that were experimentally manipulated. Results indicated that both vegetated and nonvegetated soil surfaces were active sinks for OCS, with rates of consumption ranging between 3.6 and 77.7 nmol m -2 h-1. Both vegetation and microorganisms appeared to be involved in OCS uptake. Robust multiple regression analyses indicated that catchments receiving treatments of either nitrogen or lime consumed OCS 30% more rapidly than the control. Uptake of OCS in a recently clear-cut site was 3.5 times greater than the control. Vegetated and water-samrated soil surfaces consumed OCS 43 % and 84% more rapidly than nonvegetated and unsaturated soils, respectively.

“…Some earlier studies have already shown the general uptake capability of soils. However, within these studies [Bremher and Banwart, 1976;Kluczewski et al, 1985;Lehmann and Conrad, 1996], very high concentrations of COS were used for flushing the enclosures, which also generated artificial COS concentration gradients and leads to similar problems in interpretation as in the cases of flushing with COS-free air. Within our studies we therefore investigated the exchange of COS between a soil and the atmosphere under more realistic conditions in the range of natural atmospheric COS mixing ratios.…”

Abstract. Soil samples from arable land were investigated for their exchange of carbonyl sulfide (COS) with the atmosphere under controlled conditions using dynamic cuvettes in a climate chamber. The investigated soil type acted as a significant sink for the trace gas COS. Atmospheric COS mixing ratios, temperature, and soil water content were found to be the physicochemical parameters controlling the uptake. Emission was never observed under conditions representative of a natural environment. The observed compensation point (i.e., an ambient concentration where the consumption and production balance each other and the net flux is zero) for the uptake was about 53 parts per trillion. Uptake rates ranged between 1.5 and 10.3 pmol m -2 s -•. The consumption of COS by the soil sample depended on the physiological activity of the microorganisms in the soil, as indicated by a clear optimum temperature and by a drastic inhibition in the presence of the enzyme inhibitor 6-ethoxy-2-benzothiazole-2-sulfonamide (EZ), a specific inhibitor for carbonic anhydrase.
