Phosphorus Models for Eutrophic Lakes
Abstract--A model is developed for a highly eutrophic lake (White Lake, Michigan) which incorporates both the water and sediment systems and considers two forms of phosphorus--particulate and dissolved. Dynamic interactions of phosphorus between sediments and water are quantified by taking account particulate phosphorus sinking to the sediment-water interface and diffusion of dissolved phosphor...
متن کاملAn empirical model describing the seasonal dynamics of phosphorus in 16 shallow eutrophic lakes after external loading reduction
Based on monthly mass balances on 7–8 yr of data from 16 shallow (mean depth: 1–10 m), eutrophic, unstratified, or only temporarily stratified Danish lakes, we developed a simple empirical model relating the seasonal variation in lake total phosphorus (TP) concentrations to external loading, accumulated phosphorus in the sediment, hydraulic retention time, and water temperature. The aim was to ...
متن کاملThe effect of phosphorus on nitrogen retention in lakes
A hypothesis has been presented that nitrogen retention in lakes has become less efficient at the same time as phosphorus concentrations have decreased due to high phosphorus reduction in wastewater treatment. This might have led to higher loading of nitrogen into the Baltic Sea where nitrogen is considered to be the minimum nutrient. The hypothesis was tested using the mass balance modelling a...
متن کاملModelling and Simulation of Internal Pollution of Shallow Lakes
In this paper results of a water quality modelling framework for riverine shallow lakes are presented. Based on investigations of interrelations between variables of freshwater quality by advanced time series analysis methods a process model for phosphorus remobilisation from lake sediments was developed. For predicting the changing water quality of shallow riverine lakes caused by internal pol...
متن کاملThe Importance of Lake Sediments as a Pathway for Microcystin Dynamics in Shallow Eutrophic Lakes
Microcystins are toxins produced by cyanobacteria. They occur in aquatic systems across the world and their occurrence is expected to increase in frequency and magnitude. As microcystins are hazardous to humans and animals, it is essential to understand their fate in aquatic systems in order to control health risks. While the occurrence of microcystins in sediments has been widely reported, the...
