Abstract: | On the basis of field data measured during four cruises from January to November 2007, variations in the characteristics of
dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphate were analyzed in Nansha marine fish cage culture area, Ningbo City, China. Dissolved
inorganic nitrogen (DIN) was selected as the parameter to balance seaweed absorption and fish DIN production. The contents
of DIN and phosphate varied with different seasons, and eutrophication index (E) value ranged from 2.41 to 15.99, indicating serious eutrophication conditions; the annual average value of N/P of 32.95
indicates a nitrogen surplus in this system. The eutrophication condition in Nansha Bay was mainly caused by the fish cage
culture activities. Based on their biological characteristics, Laminaria and Gracilaria were selected as the bioremediation species in winter and spring and summer and autumn, respectively. The optimal co-cultivation
proportion of fish cage to Laminaria and Gracilaria in this bay was 1 cage, 450 m2 and one cage, 690 m2, respectively. |
