模糊物元识别模型在巢湖水体富营养化评价中的应用研究

选取TN、TP、Chl-a、COD、BOD5、DO和SD等7项指标,应用模糊物元识别模型对2000~2007年巢湖的12个水质监测点的富营养化等级进行了模糊识别。通过与巢湖同期水质浓度变化及其分布区域进行对比分析,验证了模糊物元识别模型在巢湖水体富营养化评价中的适用性。巢湖富营养化评价结果表明,2000~2007年富营养化呈逐年加重的趋势,据采样点模糊物元计算结果得知西巢湖(1#~6#)的富营养化状况比东巢湖(7#~12#)更严重,西巢湖贴近度最高值为0.9974,接近极富营养状态,而东巢湖的最高值仅为0.5866。从年际变化上看,2000~2007年东巢湖富营养化状况变化不大,营养状态级处在较低的水平,而西巢湖的富营养状况变化则较大,营养状态级则处在较高水平。

基于MODIS数据遥感反演呼伦湖水体总磷浓度及富营养化状态评价

水体中总磷的浓度是衡量水环境的重要指标之一,对于水质和富营养化评价的研究具有重要意义。利用遥感卫星反演TP浓度并进行湖泊富营养化评价可以对湖泊TP浓度分布及富营养化程度进行全面整体监测,对水体水质实时动态监测和富营养化、洪灾等应急处理有较大的实用价值。以呼伦湖为研究区域,分别用2012年8月5日和2013年7月2日13个取样点的实测TP浓度值并结合同一天MODIS影像,进行TP浓度的特征波段选择,建立了基于MODIS遥感影像的半经验回归模型并进行验证,然后,应用模型反演呼伦湖2013年5—10月水体TP浓度值并结合舒金华修正营养状态指数模型进行富营养化评价。结果表明,在呼伦湖流域应用MODIS数据500 m分辨率中的第6、7波段可以较好地模拟水体中的TP浓度,呼伦湖2013年5—10月TP浓度分布较均匀,水体呈富营养化水平,与日常观测和其他学者得到的结果一致。研究表明,模型具有一定的预测能力,利用MODIS影像可以较好地对湖泊水体TP浓度进行反演并评价富营养化水平。

基于动态聚类分析和盲数理论的综合营养状态指数评价模型

考虑到常用水质富营养化评价模型的单一、确定性缺点,尝试将动态聚类分析与盲数耦合理论引入水环境富营养化评价领域,建立了改进的综合营养状态指数评价模型,最后借助克里格插值法对评价结果的可信度进行空间可视化表征。利用改进模型对2009年洞庭湖区域的水环境空间的富营养化状况进行了评价,结果表明,东洞庭湖、扁山、鹿角富营养化程度相对严重,隶属于富营养化的可信度分别达到了0.5444、0.5318和0.5260。与确定性评价模型对比分析表明,所建改进模型更充分地考虑到被观察个体的差异,集成了更全面的样本信息,并可同时计算出了各采样点综合营养状态指数的区间数与其相对应的可信度水平,从而有效地提高了评价模型的可分辨性。

南太湖富营养化调查及评价

2009年4月至2010年4月,综合利用TN、可溶性无机氮(DIN)、叶绿素a(Chl-a)、透明度(SD)、TP和浮游植物等指标,通过参数法、综合营养状态指数法及浮游植物优势种法评价了南太湖富营养化水平。结果表明:(1)南太湖夹浦、新塘、小梅口、幻溇4个断面的TN质量浓度为1.80~2.53 mg/L,TP质量浓度为0.08~0.11 mg/L,DIN质量浓度为0.55~1.10 mg/L,Chl-a质量浓度为6.4~19.2μg/L。(2)夹浦、新塘和小梅口3个断面的综合营养状态均为轻度富营养,幻溇断面为中营养。南太湖综合营养状态水平呈现出由西南向东北逐级递减的趋势。(3)南太湖的浮游植物优势种的演替过程为鱼腥藻(Anabeana)→微囊藻(Microcystis)→拟浮丝藻(Planktothricoides),但均属于蓝藻。因此,浮游植物优势种法评价的南太湖富营养化水平为重富营养化,但该方法由于不确定性较大,一般只作为参考。     

龙形水系中心区水体富营养化评价与成因分析

龙形水系是北京奥林匹克公园内的主要景观水体,以再生水为主要补水水源.采用综合营养状态指数法对龙形水系中心区(简称中心区)水体富营养化状态进行评价.结果表明:(1)中心区水体全部为富营养状态,汛期的综合营养状态指数总体呈逐渐降低的趋势,即水体在汛期初期至中期为中度富营养,后期为轻度富营养；汛期结束后水质较差,综合营养状态指数上升,中心区水体达到重度富营养化状态.(2)再生水为中心区水体污染物的主要污染源,其TN、TP、COD和NH4+-N年输入量占各类污染物年总输入量的85％以上；在汛期,其主要污染物输入量占总输入量的70％以上.中心区水体在汛期没有明显的污染物集中输入现象.(3)中心区水体富营养化主要成因为氮磷等营养物质的输出量小于输入量,造成氮磷等营养物质大量累积.(4)在汛期,外界的适宜温度、饱和光照、水体的弱碱性和缓慢流速加大了中心区水体水华暴发风险.     

中国主要湖泊营养氮沉降临界负荷的研究

水体营养氮沉降临界负荷是不致使水体产生富营养化的最高氮沉降量。文中探讨了一种依据湖泊氮质量平衡原理计算营养氮沉降临界负荷的方法。用该方法计算表明 ,我国主要湖泊的营养氮沉降临界负荷比较低 ,大部分小于 1keq· hm- 1 · a- 1 ,部分已为目前的氮沉降量或者两者相当接近 ,意味着只接受氮沉降也能导致这些湖泊产生富营养化。但实际统计结果表明 ,氮沉降在导致受工农业生产和生活影响很大的城市和郊区湖泊的水质富营养化的所有氮污染源中所占比例较低 ,而其它来源的氮输入如河道入湖、工业生活废水和农田径流等才是导致富营养化的最主要因素 ,它们的量已远远超过了这些水体可随最高允许氮负荷。因此 ,对控制这些湖泊的水质富营养化而言 ,控制氮沉降并不是目前最紧迫的任务 ,而其它人为污染源的控制才是最急需的。但氮沉降临界负荷在湖泊富营养化的中长远控制中仍具有十分重要的意义。     

东部平原湖区沉积物中溶解性有机氮分布特征

选择东部平原湖区11个湖泊进行水质和表层沉积物调查,采用综合营养状态指数(TLI)对各湖泊营养状态进行评价,研究了沉积物溶解性有机氮(DON)和游离氨基酸(FAA)的含量分布及DON分子质量分级特征,并探讨了不同湖泊沉积物有机质来源。结果表明:除固城湖和骆马湖处于中营养水平外,东部平原湖区其他湖泊均处于富营养化状态。沉积物DON浓度差异较大,在9.98~182.00 mg·kg-1之间波动,均值为57.25 mg·kg-1,太湖、滆湖、阳澄湖沉积物DON含量较高,均在140 mg·kg-1以上,其他湖泊沉积物DON含量均在50 mg·kg-1以下。区域内氨基酸(FAA)分布比较均匀,FAA浓度在3.58~13.28 mg·kg-1之间,平均值是8.14 mg·kg-1。沉积物DON和FAA含量与沉积物其他形态氮、溶解性有机碳(DOC)等污染指标均表现出显著正相关性。东部平原湖区沉积物分子质量分级结果表明:该湖区沉积物DON、DOC和SUV254基本都分布在1 k Da和30 k Da 2个范围内。东部平原湖区C/N比的值介于2.31~89.02之间,除滆湖外其他湖泊沉积物C/N值均大于10,说明该地区湖泊沉积物有机质主要来自外源。     

Comparison of microbial community between two shallow freshwater lakes in middle Yangtze basin, East China

In order to investigate the role of the microbial community in aquatic ecology and nutrient transformations in the development of eutrophication in large shallow freshwater lakes along Yangtze River, the microbial community in the depth-related sediment in Lake Chaohu and Lake Longganhu were compared. Lake Chaohu is one of the three most polluted lakes in China. However, the neighboring Lake Longganhu, a mesotrophic lake, is relatively pristine. The total phosphorous (TP) and total nitrogen (TN) concentration in water was detected at 0.193 mgl(-1) and 3.035 mgl(-1) for Lake Chaohu, 0.051 mgl(-1) and 0.774 mgl(-1) for Lake Longganhu, respectively. The population of the microorganisms with various ecological nutrient transforming functions (e.g. phosphate solubilizing, denitrifying and cellulose decomposing) and a batch of environmental parameters concerning the nutrient accumulating and transforming (e.g. total organic carbon, total nitrogen, and total phosphorous concentrations) were assayed in the depth-related sediment samples from several defined points in both lakes. The sediment samples from Lake Chaohu showed higher density of actinomycetes (P<0.05) and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (P<0.001) and less profusion of denitrifying bacteria (P<0.05) and cellulolytic microbes (P<0.001), compared with those of Lake Longganhu. The data suggested that the current microbial community in the sediment of Lake Chaohu is in favor of sustaining or further accelerating the process of the lake eutrophication. A possible positive feedback loop which consists of sustained growth of microorganisms and gradual decline of lake eutrophic status is worth further discussing.     

Estimation of bed shear stress and analysis of sediment resuspension in Lake Chaohu,China

Resuspended sediment is an important carrier of underwater material circulation, and bed shear stress is usually considered to be closely related to sediment resuspension. To analyze the resuspension dynamics in severely eutrophic Lake Chaohu, China, three fixed stations were set up to collect wave, current, and suspended sediment concentrate (SSC) data under windy weather, and two significant sediment resuspension events were recorded. Based on the Gaussian-shaped spectrum characteristics of waves in Lake Chaohu, the wave orbital velocity was estimated by using the wave parameter method. The selection of the general wave spectrum is important for the accurate estimation of wave orbital velocity. The results of the simple linear wave method were very similar to those of the wave parameter method with a Gaussian-shaped spectrum in Lake Chaohu. The total bed shear stress combining waves and currents during the observation period was calculated, and most of it was contributed by wind-driven waves. The bed material of Lake Chaohu has silt-enriched and weak cohesive features, and an examination of critical shear stress showed that the modified Shields curve method was still applicable to Lake Chaohu. When a sediment resuspension event occurred, the vertical gradient of SSC increased significantly, and the peak SSC value depended on the peak value of bed shear stress. As a predictor, bed shear stress only showed a good linear relationship during sediment resuspension events. At other times, the prediction of SSC using bed shear stress may be biased, especially at the time after a significant sediment resuspension event.

     

Lake eutrophication at the urban fringe,Seattle region,USA

Nutrient pollution and associated eutrophication of freshwaters threaten the ecological integrity and the services provided to humans by lakes. We examined how human residential development influenced the level of lake eutrophication in the Seattle, WA, USA, region. We surveyed 30 lakes and measured 3 indicators of eutrophication: concentrations of chlorophyll-a and phosphorus, and the proportion of algae that are inedible to zooplankton. We classified lakes based on the waste-treatment method for shoreline homes: septic, sewer, and undeveloped lakes. Septic lakes occurred along the urban-rural fringe while sewer lakes occurred near urban centers. Septic lakes were more eutrophic than sewer lakes and undeveloped lakes, as indicated by higher levels of phosphorus and chlorophyll-a. These results suggest that septic systems contribute to the high levels of eutrophication in lakes at the urban-rural fringe. Lakes at the urban-rural fringe represent an opportunity for proactive management of urban expansion to minimize lake eutrophication.     

Influence of trophic status on PCB distribution in lake sediments and biota

We investigated the relationship between trophic status and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) distribution in 19 Swedish lakes. We analyzed PCB in water, phytoplankton, zooplankton, fish and sediment during two sampling periods, in spring and summer. The mass of sigma PCB in the lake sediments was positively related to lake trophy, i.e. more PCBs were accumulated and buried in the sediment of eutrophic lakes than in oligotrophic lakes. In the oligotrophic lakes a greater fraction of the total PCB load was dissolved in water. We conclude that this is a result of higher sedimentation rates in eutrophic lakes and relatively lower turnover of organic carbon in the water column of the shallow, eutrophic lakes. In the stratified lakes, the amount of PCB per cubic meter in the epilimnion decreased from spring to summer. We suggest that sedimentation of plankton beneath the thermocline during stratification act as a sink process of PCBs from the epilimnion.     

Source apportionment of sediment-associated aliphatic hydrocarbon in a eutrophicated shallow lake, China

Chaohu Lake, one of the most eutrophicated lakes in China, has been suffering from long-term outside pollution, urban sewage, river outflows, and agricultural runoff which expectedly have been the main contributors of hydrocarbons. However, the contributions from these various sources have not been specified. The present study is aimed at identifying the potential sources of hydrocarbons in surface sediment around the whole lake and assessing the relative contributions using principal components analysis?Cmultiple linear regression (PCA-MLR). Sixty-one surface sediments covering the whole Chaohu Lake and three main estuaries of inflowing rivers were collected, dried, extracted, and analyzed for 27 normal alkanes (n-alkanes, from C₁₂ to C₃₈, defined ??₂₇AH) and unresolved complex mixture (UCM) by GC/MS. Diagnostic ratios and PCA-MLR were utilized to apportion their sources. The concentrations of ??₂₇AH and UCM ranged from 434 to 3,870?ng/g and 11.9 to 325???g/g dry weight, respectively, for all samples. The concentrations of ??₂₇AH in western region and estuary of Nanfei River were slightly higher but without statistical significance than those from eastern region and estuaries of Yuxi River and Hangbu River. The concentration of UCM from western region was significantly higher than that obtained from eastern region. These results reflect the importance of input of urban runoff by Nanfei River and serious eutrophication in western region. Aliphatic hydrocarbons in Chaohu Lake were mainly derived from high plant wax with mixed sources of phytoplankton and petroleum. Weak microbial decomposition of n-alkanes would be expected to occur from the low ratios of isoprenoid hydrocarbons pristine (pri) and phytane (phy) to n-C₁₇ and n-C₁₈, respectively. Higher plant, fossil combustion, petroleum residue, and phytoplankton were proposed as the main origines of aliphatic hydrocarbons by PCA while the contributions of individual n-alkane homologues, pri and phy from the identified sources (31?% from higher plant, 30?% from fossil combustion, 26?% from petroleum, and 19?% from phytoplankton) were well predicted using MLR. The distribution profile and corresponding diagnostic ratios of normal alkanes show the promising potential as a useful proxy for estimating the source and loading of pollutants in Chaohu Lake.     

Evaluation of phosphorus bioavailability in sediments of three contrasting lakes in China and the UK

The bioavailability of phosphorus (P) in sediments from West Lake and Lake Tai (China) and Lough Erne (Northern Ireland) was evaluated using total P (TP), water soluble P (WSP), readily desorbable P (RDP), algal available P (AAP) and Olsen-P. The results indicated that the TP content, the amounts of phosphorus extracted by each method and their proportions to TP varied widely between sediments of the three lakes. TP and chemical extractable phosphorus in the sediments of Lough Erne were considerably higher than those of the two lakes in China. Although TP in the West Lake sediments was similar to that of Lake Tai, the extractable phosphorus data suggested that the bioavailability of P in West Lake sediments was higher than that in sediments from Lake Tai. Nevertheless, the rank order of extraction efficiency was the same in all lakes and the amount extracted was in the sequence AAP > Olsen-P > WSP > RDP. There was a good correlation between extracted and TP in all the methods examined.     

Black carbon in Slovenian alpine lacustrine sediments

Black carbon (BC) contents were measured in recent sediments in five high altitude remote alpine lakes, i.e. Lake Krisko Sup., Lake Ledvica, Lake Planina, Lake Krn and Lovrensko Lake, and the eutrophic subalpine Lake Bled in Slovenia to follow the history of atmospheric pollution of fossil fuel and local biomass burning in Alps. Organic carbon (OC), its 13C values, total nitrogen and sedimentation rates using 210Pb activity data were also measured. The highest BC contents, reaching 20 mg/gdw, were noted in remote alpine lakes while in the subalpine Lake Bled sediment the concentrations were lower reaching 5 mg/gdw. Lower BC/OC ratios, ranging between 4% and 8%, were typical for remote alpine lakes and increased to about 10% in subalpine Lake Bled. The latter clearly shows the marked importance of local direct pollution sources in comparison to remote atmospheric input which decreases in a W-E direction in parallel with decreasing amounts of precipitation. Based on 210Pb sedimentation data, the minimal BC accumulation rates in sediment cores were detected in the pre-industrialisation period. In the last decades of 20th century the BC contents decreased probably due to reduced emission of pollutants.     

Occurrence,spatial distribution,sources, and risks of polychlorinated biphenyls and heavy metals in surface sediments from a large eutrophic Chinese lake (Lake Chaohu)

Surface sediment from large and eutrophic Lake Chaohu was investigated to determine the occurrence, spatial distribution, sources, and risks of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and heavy metals in one of the five biggest freshwater lakes in China. Total concentration of PCBs (Σ₃₄PCBs) in Lake Chaohu was 672 pg g^?1 dry weight (dw), with a range of 7 to 3999 pg g^?1 dw, which was lower than other water bodies worldwide. The majority of heavy metals were detected at all sampling locations, except for Sr, B, and In. Concentrations of Al, Fe, Ca, Mn, Sr, Co, Zn, Cd, Pb, and Hg were similar to that reported for other lakes globally. Concentrations of K, Mg, Na, Li, Ga, and Ag were greater than the average, whereas those of Cr, Ni, and Cu were lower. Cluster analysis (CA) and positive matrix factorization (PMF) yielded accordant results for the source apportionment of PCBs. The technical PCBs and microbial degradation accounted for 34.2 % and 65.8 % of total PCBs using PMF, and PMF revealed that natural and anthropogenic sources of heavy metals accounted for 38.1 % and 61.8 %, respectively. CA indicated that some toxic heavy metals (e.g., Cd, In, Tl, and Hg) were associated with Ca–Na–Mg minerals rather than Fe–Mn minerals. The uncorrelated results between organic matter revealed by pyrolysis technology and heavy metals might be caused by the existence of competitive adsorption between organic matter and minerals. PCBs and heavy metals were coupling discharge without organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), but with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). No sediment sample exceeded the toxic threshold for dioxin-like PCBs (dl-PCBs) set at 20 pg toxicity equivalency quantity (TEQ)?g^?1, (max dl-PCBs, 10.9 pg TEQ g^?1). However, concentrations of Ag, Cd, and Hg were at levels of environmental concern. The sediment in the drinking water source area (DWSA) was threatened by heavy metals from other areas, and some fundamental solutions were proposed to protect the DWSA.     

Carbon source/sink function of a subtropical, eutrophic lake determined from an overall mass balance and a gas exchange and carbon burial balance

Although studies on carbon burial in lake sediments have shown that lakes are disproportionately important carbon sinks, many studies on gaseous carbon exchange across the water-air interface have demonstrated that lakes are supersaturated with CO(2) and CH(4) causing a net release of CO(2) and CH(4) to the atmosphere. In order to more accurately estimate the net carbon source/sink function of lake ecosystems, a more comprehensive carbon budget is needed, especially for gaseous carbon exchange across the water-air interface. Using two methods, overall mass balance and gas exchange and carbon burial balance, we assessed the carbon source/sink function of Lake Donghu, a subtropical, eutrophic lake, from April 2003 to March 2004. With the overall mass balance calculations, total carbon input was 14 905 t, total carbon output was 4950 t, and net carbon budget was +9955 t, suggesting that Lake Donghu was a great carbon sink. For the gas exchange and carbon burial balance, gaseous carbon (CO(2) and CH(4)) emission across the water-air interface totaled 752 t while carbon burial in the lake sediment was 9477 t. The ratio of carbon emission into the atmosphere to carbon burial into the sediment was only 0.08. This low ratio indicates that Lake Donghu is a great carbon sink. Results showed good agreement between the two methods with both showing Lake Donghu to be a great carbon sink. This results from the high primary production of Lake Donghu, substantive allochthonous carbon inputs and intensive anthropogenic activity. Gaseous carbon emission accounted for about 15% of the total carbon output, indicating that the total output would be underestimated without including gaseous carbon exchange.
