淡水湖泊浮游藻类对富营养化和气候变暖的响应

研究采用添加硅藻土、植物棉、活性炭等3种不同预处理手段来过滤铜绿微囊藻, 并考察未预处理及预处理后的藻液过滤过程中的过滤特性、有机物分布及膜污染特性。结果表明, 3种预处理手段对过滤通量均有所提高并减缓膜污染。其中, 硅藻土预处理提高平均过滤通量达915%, 明显优于其他助滤手段。活性炭预处理能够有效吸附芳香族蛋白质类荧光污染物, 显著降低污染膜的不可逆化学污染阻力。通过OCT及SEM分析可知未预处理的高藻水直接过滤造成的膜污染最严重, 饼层结构的粗糙度最低并且厚度也最小, 而硅藻土通过优化饼层结构以达到缓解膜污染的效果。最后基于XDLVO理论结果也进一步证实硅藻土预处理手段对改善膜污染效果最好。研究结果对未来蓝藻水华膜处理技术的预处理手段研发具有指导意义。

北京四校园人工湖浮游藻类与富营养化特征分析

浮游藻类作为重要的生物指标已被广泛运用于各种水体的富营养化监测与评价中.论文对北京市4个校园人工湖的浮游藻类群落组成及季节变化展开调查,探讨了浮游藻类生物指标和富营养化的关系及其季节变化规律.调查期间,镜鉴得到39个属,隶属于蓝藻,绿藻和硅藻门.4个水体生物密度的季节平均值均高于500 cell·mL^-1,多样性指数普遍介于2～3之间.TN,TP和COD显示各水体都已处于富营养化状态.综合生物指标和水质指标进行聚类分析,结果显示:4个人工湖不同季节的水体可分为绿藻型,蓝,绿藻型和硅藻型三大类富营养化水体:荷花池,荷塘浮游藻类群落相似性最高,而荷塘、未名湖夏季富营养化程度最接近.     

气候变暖与富营养化交互作用对浅水湖泊水-气界面N2O通量的影响

研究通过构建中尺度控温围隔模拟系统,模拟21世纪末气候变化与富营养化趋势,探讨未来气候变暖与富营养化趋势下浅水湖泊水-气界面N₂O交换过程的响应特征及机制。结果表明:(1)恒定与波动升温引起的代谢过程及生物间相互作用的改变显著促进了水-气界面间N₂O的排放及年累积释放量,而磷的添加可能因为影响了水体中反硝化代谢的效率而削弱了水-气界面N₂O排放及年累积释放量;(2)实验期间随季节转换,控制系统内优势的初级生产者由水生植物转变为浮游植物,水体中有机质含量亦不断积累,研究结果表明季节变化及初级生产者转换均对水-气界面N₂O排放量的增加起到了显著促进作用。在气候变化与富营养化趋势下浅水湖泊水-气界面的N₂O交换过程主要受到水体中氮磷含量及其比例的变化、水生植物与浮游植物的转换及有机质的积累过程的影响。因此,气候变暖(恒定和波动升温)能够促进湖泊N₂O排放量的上升,而变暖和营养盐的交互作用会使水-气界面N₂O交换更加复杂。     

杭州西湖引流冲污前后浮游藻类变化及防治富营养化效果评价

1988年4月—1989年4月西湖各湖区浮游藻类逐月分析资料表明,引水冲污后西湖蓝藻个体数量比例从1981年的84.4％下降到69.7％,藻种数118种增至192种;以蓝藻占绝对优势的群落结构特征及多项水质指标的TSI均值表明,西湖水体依然属富营养类型,且有缓慢发展趋势,引水并未根本改变西湖水质特性。根据藻量及多样性指数的方差分析,对各湖区污染及富营养程度进行了多重比较。     

富营养化湖泊规模化种养的水葫芦与浮游藻类的相互影响

水葫芦(学名凤眼莲,Eichhornia crassipes Solms)是被公认为去除富营养化水体氮、磷效果较好的水生漂浮植物[1—3],也是目前生态修复工程中应用较广的水生漂浮植物[4]。随着《太湖流域控制性种养水葫芦技术规范》的出台,水葫芦安全控养模式在太湖流域的应用相对较为成熟。目前,研究者们对于水葫芦应用的顾虑由最初的影响     

人工试验湖泊浮游藻类群落的生态学研究

为了对转基因(CAgcGH)鲤的生态风险评估提供参考资料, 于2002年构建人工试验湖泊。研究分析了该人工湖泊浮游藻类群落的结构特征、季节动态、年际变化及其与水体各环境因子的关系。2006年至2010年间, 每季度采样, 共鉴定出浮游藻类7门47属66种, 其中绿藻种类最多。双向指示种分析(TWINSPAN)和除趋势对应分析(DCA)结果显示采样点数据可分为春夏秋冬4组, 说明该群落季节性明显。冬季群落结构简单, 多样性最低, 主要由小环藻(Cyclotella sp.)和分歧锥囊藻(Dinobryon divergens)组成; 春季, 小环藻、针杆藻(Synedra sp.)、颗粒直链藻(Melosira granulata)等几种硅藻占优势; 夏季群落结构复杂, 占优势的是银灰平裂藻(Merismopedia glauca)和螺旋鞘丝藻(Lyngbya contarta), 多样性最高; 秋季没有明显占优势的种类。5年间, 群落细胞密度上升了33.1%, 平均值为(1.430.75)106 cells/L; 硅藻在群落中所占比例从48.2%下降至16.2%, 而蓝藻从9.3%上升至42.2%。典范对应分析(CCA)的结果显示对浮游藻类影响最大的环境因子是温度和溶氧, 总氮浓度和总磷浓度的影响也是不可忽视的, 而pH在试验中对浮游藻类群落结构的影响有限。不同藻类在CCA排序图上有不同的分布格局, 一些硅藻主要分布在中低温采样点, 蓝藻集中分布在高温的采样点, 鼓藻主要出现在高透明度和高总磷浓度的采样点, 金藻主要分布在高溶氧浓度和低温的采样点。     

不同外源营养负荷对浮游藻类群落结构特征的影响

为研究不同外源营养负荷对水体浮游藻类群落结构特征的影响,于2010年12月至2012年6月在亚热带长江流域的4个池塘中开展了氮磷营养添加实验。实验设置4个处理,即加氮加磷(+N+P)、只加磷(-N+P)、只加氮(+N-P)和氮、磷都不加(-N-P)(对照)。从种类来看,各种处理对浮游藻类种类数的影响不大,各处理中种类数相差不多,-N+P、+N+P、+N-P和-N-P处理中浮游藻类种类数分别为75种、79种、75种和75种。各处理均是绿藻门种类最多,其次是蓝藻门。从功能群来看,-N+P处理的中、富营养型藻类占比和+N+P处理的相差不多,二者均高于2个未加磷处理(+N-P和-N-P处理)的。+N-P处理的贫营养型藻类占比比+N+P处理的高,甚至高于-N-P处理的。研究结果表明减氮不能控制藻类群落的中、富营养型藻类数量,只控磷能够推动浮游藻类群落从中-富营养型向贫营养型演替。这一结论有望为制定富营养化治理的氮管理策略提供一定的理论依据。

Factors affecting occurrence and bloom formation of the nuisance flagellate Gonyostomum semen in boreal lakes

We examined changes in G. semen occurrence and bloom incidence in 146 boreal lakes in Sweden sampled at least once between 1992 and 2010, and used a time-by-space model to assess the environmental variables that best explain patterns in G. semen distribution and bloom formation.We showed that G. semen has become more common, although there were no significant shifts in its geographical distribution during the study period. In particular, G. semen was spreading into new lakes in the Central Plains ecoregion (southern Sweden), whereas its occurrence and biomass usually remained low in the Borealic Upland and Fennoscandian Shield ecoregions.G. semen biomass and the incidence of blooms did not increase significantly during the study period, but fluctuated among years and reached a maximum in 2003. The occurrence of G. semen was mainly explained by temperature and the length of the growing season, whilst local-scale variables, such as pH and water color, were the best predictors of blooms.Analysis of bloom formation at three different levels of G. semen dominance: G. semen >50%, >75%, and >90% of total phytoplankton biomass revealed a wide range of responses to environmental variation. For example, pH, water color and to a lesser extent temperature explained bloom formation at the 50% level, whereas lake morphometry was important at the 90% level.These results suggest that with ongoing brownification and climate warming boreal systems will likely become more susceptible to invasions of G. semen.     

Chlorophyll <Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis> seasonality in four shallow eutrophic lakes (northern British Columbia,Canada) and the critical roles of internal phosphorus loading and temperature

Chlorophyll a (Chl a) seasonality was investigated in four shallow eutrophic lakes located in north-central British Columbia (western Canada). Chlorophyll a concentration maxima in all four lakes occurred during the late summer/early autumn when near-surface total phosphorus ([Tot-P]) and total dissolved P concentrations, pH, and water temperature were highest. Mass balance and inferential analyses showed that bloom-triggering P loads came mostly from within-lake sources, but that mechanisms controlling internal loading in Charlie and Tabor (lakes having hypolimnetic oxygen deficits during summer) were fundamentally different than those in Nulki and Tachick (isothermal, well oxygenated lakes). Although the timing and intensity of major blooms were associated with late summer/early autumn P loads, average summer [Chl a] were predicted well by previously developed models based solely on spring overturn [Tot-P]. Instantaneous within-lake [Chl a] were best predicted by models incorporating both surface [Tot-P] and temperature (r ² = 0.57–0.70). Moreover, [Tot-P] and temperature combined accounted for 57% of among-lake variations in instantaneous [Chl a]: log [Chl a] = 0.038 (°C) + 0.006 ([Tot-P]) + 0.203 (P < 0.001), where [Chl a] and [Tot-P] are in μg l⁻¹. Positive associations between instantaneous [Chl a] and temperature support climate change models that forecast changes in phytoplankton productivity even if nutrient loading rates remain constant.

Assessing water quality and classifying trophic status for scientifically based managing the water resources of the Lake Timsah,the lake with salinity stratification along the Suez Canal

Lake Timsah is considered as the biggest water body at Ismailia City with a surface area of 14?km². It is a saline shallow water basin lies approximately mid-way between the south city of Suez and the north city of Port Said at 30^o35′46.55“N and 32^o19′30.54″E. Because it receives water with high and low salinities, salinity stratification is producing in the Lake Timsah, with values of 14–40‰ for the surface water and over 40‰ for the bottom water. The temperature of the lake water decreased to below 19 °C in the winter and rose to above 29?°C in the summer; the concentration of dissolved oxygen ranged between 6.5 and 12.2?l^?1 and the pH fluctuated between 7.9 in its lower value and 8.2 in its higher value. Water transparency was very low as indicated by Secchi disc readings recorded during this study and varied between 0.3 and 2.7?m. The main chemical nutrient (phosphorus) reached its highest levels of 96?µg?l^?1 in winter and their lowest values of 24?µg?l^?1 during summer. This nutrient concentration is high especially by comparing with those of unpolluted marine waters, but is typical of the more eutrophic coastal waters worldwide. The composition and abundance of phytoplankton with dominancy of diatoms and increased population density (20,986 cell l^?1) reflect the eutrophic condition of the lake. The intensive growth of phytoplankton was enriched by high concentration of chlorophyll a with annual values ranged between 6.5 and 56?µg?l^?1. The objective of the present work was quantitative assessment of the quality of the water of the Lake Timsah using different approaches. During the present study, three different approaches were applied for the quantitative assessment of Lake Timsah water quality: the trophic state index (TST); trophic level index (TLI) and water quality index (WQI). Application of the trophic state and trophic level indices (TSI & TLI) revealed that the Lake Timsah has trophic indices of 60 and 5.2 for TSI and TLI, respectively. Both indices reflected the eutrophic condition of the lake waters and confirmed that the eutrophication is a major threat in the Lake Timsah. On the other hand, the WQI calculated for the Lake Timsah during the present study with an average of 49 demonstrated that the water of the Lake Timsah is bad and unsuitable for main and/or several uses. Moreover, WQI allows accounting for several water resource uses and can serve a more robust than TSI and/or TLI and can be used effectively as a comprehensive tool for water quality quantification. In conclusion, the three subjective indices used for the assessment process for the lake water are more suitable and effective for needs of the sustainable water resources protection and management of the Lake Timsah.
