  • 简介:期刊海藻的花蕾从沉积导致磷(P)的免职和版本进水。因此,当海藻的粒子开始安定到底部时,在季节的变化期间,在沉积理解行为和P的分发特征是最重要的钥匙管理Saemangeum水库的水质量。在这研究,水质量和沉积作文包括叶绿素的变化--一(Chl--一)并且P被调查决定在水和沉积之间的相互作用。学习首先集中了于影响P版本和沉积的矿化作用的海藻的粒子沉积。Chl--水里的集中在10月看了锋利的衰落水藻什么时候开始在秋天死了,并且后来,化学的氧需求(货到付款)的集中和在沉积的全部的P(TP)在11月由于腐烂的海藻的粒子的沉积增加了。在时间的一样的时期期间,在沉积的容易地简历可得到的P(敲击)在在哪儿的上面的区域显示出激烈的增加Chl--水的集中高。在顺序,高敲击地区在早冬季从上面的区域变了到更低的区域。敲击移动被认为从分解水藻在沉积的表面上从安定的overlying水的物理流动被发源。Saemangeum水库最近被构造;因此,除了可溶的反应的磷(SRP)的无机的P部分的所有类型在湖和沼泽地沉积层的底部表面上存在不是足够的显著地影响overlying水。在另一方面,从水藻的释放P对季节的变化不同、敏感。在结论,海藻的粒子沉积是重要的在Seamangeum水库从沉积表面层的使矿物化的无机的P控制超营养作用而非P版本。
