The analyzed results show that nitrogen forms in the influent area of the reservoir are given priority to ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen, whose proportion is more than 45% respectively, and this is probably caused by the pollution of inflow water quality;but in the effluent area, the forms are given priority to nitrate nitrogen, whose proportion is as high as 96% and above;also the proportion of ammonia nitrogen drops by more than 80% during the process from the influent area to the effluent area, and this shows that the natural process of nitrification and denitrification can be well accomplished in the reservoir. We recommend here that to reduce the input amount of ammonia nitrogen and organic nitrogen into the reservoir is the most efficient way to prevent or mitigate eutrophication of water body.展开更多

In order to meet the needs of industrial and domestic water in the Yuqia Basin, numerical simulation was used to evaluate the groundwater resources and potential for exploitation. The results showed that the mathematical model and calculation parameters used were mainly in accordance with practical situation. The calculated value of the underground water level is consistent with measured value during the period of identification and validation. The total recharge of groundwater resources was 22.02×10~4 m^3/d, and the total drainage was 21.95×10~4 m^3/d at present. The Yuqia River leakage is the main supply source of groundwater. There is no significant effect on area of wetland when water source place exploited by 2.5×10~4 m^3/d at alluvial-diluvial fan of Yuqia River. After long-term exploitation, the spring flow reduces from 1.42×10~4 m^3/d to 1.01×10~4 m^3/d and wetland area reduces by 32.7% of original area. The calculation of water balance shows that it is safe to the Yuqia Basin, Da Qiadam Lake, the Mahai Basin at downstream of Yuqia River and wetland under the condition of water source place exploited by 2.5×10~4 m^3/d.展开更多

文摘Water is the most important limiting factor in arid areas,and thus water resource management is critical for the health of dryland ecosystems.However,global climate change and anthropogenic activity make water resource management more difficult,and this situation may be particularly crucial for dryland restoration,because of variation in water uptake patterns associated with artificial revegetation of different ages and vegetation type.However,there is lacking longterm restorations that are suitable for studying this issue.In Shapotou area,Northwest China,artificial revegetation areas were planted several times beginning in 1956,and now form a chronosequence of sand-binding landscapes that are ideal for studying variability in water uptake source by plants over succession.The stable isotopesδ18O andδ2H were employed to investigate the water uptake patterns of the typical revegetation shrubs Artemisia ordosica and Caragana korshinskii,which were planted in different years.We compared the stable isotope ratios of shrub stem water to groundwater,precipitation,and soil water pools at five layers(5−10,10−40,40−80,80−150,and 150−300 cm).The results indicate that Artemisia ordosica derived the majority of their water from the 20−150 cm soil layer,whereas Caragana korshinskii obtained water from the 40−150 cm soil layer.The main water sources of Artemisia ordosica and C.korshinskii plants changed over time,from deeper about 150 cm depth to shallow 20 cm soil layer.This study can provide insights into water uptake patterns of major desert vegetation and thus water management of artificial ecosystems,at least in Northwest China.
文摘The Shitoukoumen Reservoir is one of main drinking water source areas in Changchun City,and there is a contradiction between the protection and the economic development of water source areas. In this paper,the primary and secondary reserves in drinking water source area of the Shitoukoumen Reservoir are taken as research objects. Based on the theory of ecological compensation,the ecological compensation standard is accounted and determined from different perspectives,and the suggestion of the phased ecological compensation in water source areas is proposed.
文摘Based on field detected water quality data, the distribution characteristics of different forms of nitrogen in a reservoir as drinking water source in Dongguan, which locates at the Pearl River Delta of China, have been analyzed in order to provide theoretical bases for prevention and reduction of eutrophication. The analyzed results show that nitrogen forms in the influent area of the reservoir are given priority to ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen, whose proportion is more than 45% respectively, and this is probably caused by the pollution of inflow water quality;but in the effluent area, the forms are given priority to nitrate nitrogen, whose proportion is as high as 96% and above;also the proportion of ammonia nitrogen drops by more than 80% during the process from the influent area to the effluent area, and this shows that the natural process of nitrification and denitrification can be well accomplished in the reservoir. We recommend here that to reduce the input amount of ammonia nitrogen and organic nitrogen into the reservoir is the most efficient way to prevent or mitigate eutrophication of water body.
文摘Ecological compensation mechanism for drinking water source is one of the effective economic ways to solve the issues of the shortage of the protection investment and the lack of the driving forces to protect the water quality.The successful cases of compensation mechanism for drinking water source have examined the dilemma of improving the trans-administrative boundary compensation mechanism both in China and Yunnan.The lack of the provincial rules and regulations in Yunnan is the fundamental reason for the local government not willingly to establish the compensation mechanism.On the other hand,the shortage of the compensation funds is the key difficulty for the shareholders to reach an agreement.Formulating the rules and regulations about the construction of the compensation mechanism of drinking water source in Yunnan would be a feasible way to stipulate the local government to set up the compensation mechanism.Meanwhile,designing a complete set of compensation mechanism would make full use of the mechanism to work well to protect the water quality in an economic way.

文摘It is of great significance to analyze the chemical indexes of mine water and develop a rapid identification system of water source, which can quickly and accurately distinguish the causes of water inrush and identify the source of water inrush, so as to reduce casualties and economic losses and prevent and control water inrush disasters. Taking Ca<sup>2+</sup>, Mg<sup>2+</sup>, Na<sup>+</sup> + K<sup>+</sup>, , , Cl<sup>-</sup>, pH value and TDS as discriminant indexes, the principal component analysis method was used to reduce the dimension of data, and the identification model of mine water inrush source based on PCA-BP neural network was established. 96 sets of data of different aquifers in Panxie mining area were selected for prediction analysis, and 20 sets of randomly selected data were tested, with an accuracy rate of 95%. The model can effectively reduce data redundancy, has a high recognition rate, and can accurately and quickly identify the water source of mine water inrush.

文摘Understanding water dynamics is a prerequisite for the restoration of degraded ecosystems in arid and semiarid regions.In this study,we carried out δD and δ^(18)O analyses of precipitation,unsaturated soil water,overland flow,surface runoff,and groundwater samples from a seasonally flooded wetland in the Momoge National Nature Reserve of the Songnen Plain,Northeast China,to identify the water sources and understand the mechanisms of unsaturated soil water movement.Unsaturated soil water content(W/W%)at every 20 cm along with a soil profile(0–100 cm)was collected during the growing season,and the HYDRUS-1D model was used to simulate temporal-spatial variations.The results showed that the local meteoric water line(δD=5.90δ18O-7.34,R2=0.95)had a smaller slope and intercept than the global meteoric water line because of strong evaporation at our study site under semi-arid climate.The groundwater was partly recharged by local precipitation via overland flow and unsaturated soil water infiltration.Unsaturated soil water was sourced from both precipitation and groundwater with variations at different depths.The upper soil layer at 0–15 cm was mainly sourced from limited precipitation,while the groundwater could move up to a 25 cm layer during the dry period.The unsaturated soil water content increased with soil depth in the top 40 cm,decreased at depths of 40 to 80 cm,and increased again at depths of 80 to 100 cm.The HYDRUS-1D model could simulate the unsaturated soil water dynamics well in the upper(0–40 cm)and lower(80–100 cm)sections,but poorly for depths of 40–80 cm due to the upward and downward flow.The bidirectional unsaturated soil water movement highlights the importance of capillary groundwater for wetland plants with similar climatic or hydrogeological conditions.

文摘An embedded reservoir that provides an efficient nutrient removal system protects drinking water.However,embedded reservoirs are rarely used in eutrophic shallow lakes because of their undetermined nutrient retention efficiency and unknown effects by the phytoplankton community.In this study,we aim to investigate the nutrient retention and algae succession in an embedded reservoir and adjacent wetland from April 2017 to September 2018 in the eastern part of Lake Taihu,China.More than 40%of total phosphorus(TP)and 45%of particulate phosphorous entering the reservoir were retained semiannually,and the highest TP removal efficiency was achieved in the reservoir during autumn with an average value of 53.3%±9.9%.The overall nitrogen retention efficiency(21.7%±37.8%)was lower than that of TP(41.8%±27.8%).Similar trends were obtained in the wetland area.An important pathway for phosphorus removal is through particulate matter retention.Our study revealed that nutrient retention mechanisms in the reservoir were primarily via macrophyte absorption,particulate substance sedimentation,and prolonged water residence time.Consequently,the phytoplankton biomass(Chl-a)in the reservoir decreased(from 48.0 to 25.2μg/L)and water transparency improved,due to the decreased P level and transformation of the phytoplankton group into simple structures with good ecological status.Therefore,the combination of embedded reservoir and constructed wetland ecosystem can be used successfully to protect surface water.The results will be advantageous to groups seeking to preserve drinking water sources.

文摘In Yuqia Basin, the climate is arid and the ecologic environment is fragile, and shortage of water resources has seriously restricted the sustainable development of local economy. In order to meet the needs of industrial and domestic water in the Yuqia Basin, numerical simulation was used to evaluate the groundwater resources and potential for exploitation. The results showed that the mathematical model and calculation parameters used were mainly in accordance with practical situation. The calculated value of the underground water level is consistent with measured value during the period of identification and validation. The total recharge of groundwater resources was 22.02×10~4 m^3/d, and the total drainage was 21.95×10~4 m^3/d at present. The Yuqia River leakage is the main supply source of groundwater. There is no significant effect on area of wetland when water source place exploited by 2.5×10~4 m^3/d at alluvial-diluvial fan of Yuqia River. After long-term exploitation, the spring flow reduces from 1.42×10~4 m^3/d to 1.01×10~4 m^3/d and wetland area reduces by 32.7% of original area. The calculation of water balance shows that it is safe to the Yuqia Basin, Da Qiadam Lake, the Mahai Basin at downstream of Yuqia River and wetland under the condition of water source place exploited by 2.5×10~4 m^3/d.

文摘Protecting the quality of lake watersheds by preventing and reducing their contamination is an effective approach to ensure the sustainability of the drinking water supply.In this study,acute toxicity assessment was conducted on the basis of acute bioluminescence inhibition assay using the marine bacterium Vibrio fischeri as the test organism and Luoma Lake drinking water source in East China as the research target.The suitable ranges of environmental factors,including pH value,organic matter,turbidity,hardness,and dissolved oxygen of water samples were evaluated for the toxicity testing of bioluminescent bacteria.The physicochemical characteristics of water samples at the selected 43 sites of Luoma Lake watershed were measured.Results showed that the variations in pH value(7.31-8.41),hardness(5-20°d)and dissolved oxygen(4.44-11.03 mg/L)of Luoma Lake and its main inflow and outflow rivers had negligible impacts on the acute toxicity testing of V.fischeri.The luminescence inhibition rates ranged from-11.21%to 10.80%at the 43 sites.Pearson's correlation analysis in the experiment revealed that temperature,pH value,hardness,and turbidity had no correlation with luminescence inhibition rate,whereas dissolved oxygen showed a weak statistically positive correlation with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.455(p<0.05).

文摘As a result of pollution in the present water sources,cities have been forced to utilize cleaner water sources.There are few reports regarding the potential shift of bacterial community structure driven by water source switching,especially that of corrosion-related bacteria.Three types of finished water were used for simulation,the polluted source water from the Qiantang and Dongtiaoxi Rivers(China)was replaced by cleaner water from Qiandao Lake(China).Here,we discussed the transition effects through three simulated reactors.The bacterial characteristics were identified using the highthroughput sequencing and heterotrophic plate count method.It was observed that the level of culturable bacteria declined by 2–3 orders of magnitude after water source switching.The bacterial community released from the pipeline reactor was significantly different under different finished water,and it exhibited large variation at the genus level.Porphyrobacter(58.2%)and Phreatobacter(14.5%)clearly replaced Novosphingobium,Aquabacterium,and Cupriavidus as new dominant genera in system A,which could be attributed to the lower carbon and nitrogen content of the new water source.Although corrosion-inhibiting bacteria decreased after switching,they still maintained dominant in three reactors(6.6%,15.9%,and 19.7%).Furthermore,potential opportunistic pathogens such as Sphingomonas were detected.Our study shows that after transition to a high quality water source,the total culturable bacteria released was in a downtrend,which leads to a great reduction in the risk of bacterial leakage in the produced drinking water.
