Vertical and temporal distribution of nitrogen and phosphorus and relationship with their influencing factors in aquatic-terrestrial ecotone： a case study in Taihu Lake, China

Vertical and temporal distributions of N and P in soil solution in aquatic-terrestrial ecotone （ATE） of Taihu Lake were investigated, and the relations among N, P, ORP （oxidation reduction potential）, TOC, root system biomass and microorganism were studied. As a whole, significant declines in TN, NO3^--N, DON （dissolved organic nitrogen） and TP concentration in soil solution have occurred with increase of the depth, and reached their minima at 60 cm depth, except for NH4^＋-N, which increased with depth. The concentration of TP increased gradually from spring to winter in the topsoil, the maximum 0.08 mg/L presented in the winter while the minimum 0.03 mg/L in spring. In the deeper layer, the concentration value of TP fluctuated little. As for the NO3^--N, its seasonal variation was significant at 20 cm depth, its concentration increased gradually from spring to autumn, and decreased markedly in winter. Vertical and temporal distribution of DON is contrary to that of NO3^--N. The results also show that the variation of N and P in the percolate between adjacent layers is obviously different. The vertical variation ofTN, TP, NO3^--N, NH4^＋-N and DON is significant, of which the variation coefficient of NO3^--N along the depth reaches 100.23%, the highest; while the variation coefficient of DON is 41.14%, the smallest. The results of correlation analysis show that the concentration of nitrogen and phosphorus correlate significantly with TOC, ORP, root biomass and counts of nitrifying bacteria. Most nutrients altered much from 20 to 40 cm along the depth. However, DON changed more between 60 and 80 cm. Results show that soil of 0-60 cm depth is active rhizoplane, with strong capability to remove the nitrogen and phosphorus in ATE. It may suggest that there exists the optimum ecological efficiency in the depth of above 60 cm in reed wetland. This will be very significant for ecological restoration and reestablishment.     

Bioaccumulation of heavy metals in fishes from Taihu Lake, China

The Cr,Zn,Cu,Cd,Pb contents were determined in Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus,Carassius auratus Linnaeus,Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and Aristichthys nobilis,which were caught from Meiliang Bay,Taihu Lake,a large,shallow and eutrophic lake of China.The results showed that:(1)the Cr,Cu,Pb,Cd contents in the edible parts of the four fish species were much lower than Chinese Food Health Criterion(1994),but the Zn contents were higher than the Criterion;(2)Cd contents were the highest in the liver of fish,Pb contents were almost the same in all organs of fish,Cr contents mainly enriched in the skin and gonads,Zn contents were the highest in the gonad(♀),and Cu contents were the highest in the liver;(3)the total metal accumulation was the greatest in the liver and the lowest in the muscle.The total metal accumulation was the highest in C.auratus L.This investigation indicated that fish products in Taihu Lake were still safe for human consumption,but the amount consumed should be controlled under the Chinese Food Health Criterion to avoid excessive intake of Zn.

基于格网的太湖生态环境质量空间评价

将GIS格网空间分析技术应用于太湖生态环境综合评价,实现了全湖范围内多因素的综合评价,揭示太湖生态环境状况的空间分布规律。首先将太湖分为800个格网单元,在2002~2003年实测样点的水体、底泥、水生生物特征数据基础上,通过空间插值获得全部单元模拟值,然后进行格网叠加计算,通过层次分析法得出各单元综合评价值,将太湖分为好、较好、中等、较差、差5个等级区,生成太湖生态环境空间综合评价图。结果显示,评价结果与太湖实际情况基本相符,太湖生态环境质量基本上由东南向西北逐渐降低,中等以下地区占全部湖区的一半以上,整体状况偏差。

环太湖不同性质河流水体磷的时空分布特征

为了解不同性质河流对太湖水体富营养化的影响,于2009年2月(枯水期)、2009年5月(平水期)、2009年8月(丰水期)对环太湖三类9条河流中不同形态磷的沿程和时间变化特征进行了研究.结果表明,总磷(TP)、溶解性总磷(DTP)和溶解性反应磷(SRP)质量浓度随枯、平、丰水期而呈降低趋势,可酶解磷(EHP)质量浓度随着枯、平、丰水期藻类生物量的升高而升高.受生活污水影响的河流水体中各形态磷的质量浓度都是最高的,但由于此类河流从上游到下游水体自净能力很好,其对太湖富营养化的影响最小.受工业废水影响河流在与太湖交界处各形态磷的质量浓度最大,对太湖富营养化的影响也最大.入湖河流的EHP质量浓度多数情况下远远高于SRP质量浓度,EHP对太湖蓝藻的暴发起关键性作用.     

富营养化水体中黑水团的吸收及反射特性分析

对黑水团水体光学特性进行研究,是利用遥感技术监测和评估黑水团事件的前提.针对2015年7月在太湖发生的黑水团现象,采集了太湖黑水团区(区域一)、蓝藻水华区(区域二)、清水区(区域三)共36个水样,对这3个区域的水体遥感反射率以及吸收特性进行对比分析.结果表明:1区域一水体的总颗粒物、色素颗粒物和非色素颗粒物吸收系数比区域二、区域三高出1~2倍,在400~500 nm之间,区域一CDOM吸收系数相比另外两个区域的水体高出2倍左右.导致黑水团区域水体具有很低的遥感反射率,被人眼感知时呈现为黑色;2黑水团区域水体M值低于滇池、巢湖和太湖的M值变化范围,说明黑水团中CDOM的腐殖酸含量较高.此外,叶绿素a浓度与CDOM在350 nm处吸收系数之间具有很好的相关性,表明蓝藻的降解可能是黑水团中CDOM的一个主要来源;3在380 nm之后,黑水团区域的水体总吸收以色素颗粒物占主导,但在短波350~380 nm处,CDOM对总吸收的贡献率高于色素颗粒物和非色素颗粒物.     

扰动对悬浮颗粒物粒径及上覆水中磷形态分布的影响

为了探讨底泥扰动下上覆水中悬浮物粒径分布规律及该分布规律对水体中溶解性形态磷的影响,以太湖梅梁湾上覆水和沉积物作为实验对象,开展室内模拟实验.结合乌氏粒级标准分析了扰动下的水体中粒径变化情况以及上覆水中不同磷形态的变化规律.结果表明,扰动后的水体中,悬浮物粒径分布发生明显变化,其中小粒径颗粒(0~10μm)、中粒径颗粒(10~20μm)、大粒径颗粒(≥20μm)的平均占比分别升高、降低、不变.说明中小粒径颗粒物质有向大粒径转化的趋势.另外,在磷形态方面,随着粒径分布的周期性变化,DTP/TP、DIP/TP存在同样的周期性上升规律,数据显示DTP、DIP的变化并不明显,这说明扰动导致悬浮颗粒物对于磷的持留能力提高.另一方面,扰动下DTP/TP和DIP/TP平均值分别为19%和13%,其远低于对照实验(80%和69%),说明扰动引起的小粒径聚集与絮凝成大粒径颗粒的现象有利于上覆水中溶解性形态磷的吸附与沉降,并转化成颗粒态磷,进而延缓水体富营养化的发展进程.     

太湖湖滨带春季悬浮物沉降特征与水体营养盐响应

为研究湖滨带悬浮物沉降过程中水体营养盐时空分布状况,在太湖西岸湖滨带典型区域进行原位沉降实验,计算了沉降量和沉降通量,并对沉降过程中TP、TN、NH+4-N、NO-3-N测定分析.结果表明,太湖西岸湖滨带沉降通量表现为人工芦苇区近岸无植被区自然芦苇区远岸无植被区,平均沉降通量分别为(1 383.40±925.60)、(1 208.67±743.50)、(278.72±142.53)、(245.58±154.25)g·(m2·d)-1,沉降第6 d以后沉降量稳定上升,沉降速率大于分解速率;经过持续15 d野外沉降实验观测,沉降过程中近岸带的TP含量是远岸带的2~3倍,且沉积物捕获器内NH+4-N和NO-3-N含量出现显著的差异(P0.01);沉降量与水体TN和NH+4-N含量呈显著相关(P0.01,n=42),表明沉降量的增加会导致上覆水体TN与NH+4-N含量增加;TN与NH+4-N相关系数为0.84,显示沉降量的增加可能加速氮素不同形态间相互转化,这一现象在当前太湖湖泛治理中应当予以重视.     

《太湖蓝藻监测处理与湖泛成因》简介

20世纪80年代以来,由于流域经济高速发展和水环境保护工作相对滞后,太湖水质恶化与湖泊富营养化问题日益突出,蓝藻水华事件频发。特别是2007年无锡市贡湖水源地蓝藻堆积死亡形成黑水团事件,导致无锡市自来水恶臭,引发了震惊中外的无锡供水危机,严重影响了城市供水安全。富营养化湖泊治理是一项世界性的难题,国内外尚没有成熟的经验可供借鉴。该书从太湖蓝藻治理入手,
