Lake Taihu (Taihu) is the third largest freshwater lake in China and an important drinking water, fishing, tourism resource for Jiangsu Province. Recent toxic cyanobacterial blooms caused by excessive human nutrient loading have focused attention on arresting restoring to acceptable water quality conditions reducing inputs. Field sampling situ enrichment bioassays were conducted determine seasonal patterns of limitation thresholds phytoplankton growth. The TN: TP TDN:TDP mass ratios ambient...
Nutrient overenrichment has led to dramatic increases in harmful cyanobacterial blooms, creating serious threats drinking water supplies, ecological and economic sustainability of freshwater ecosystems. Nutrient-cyanobacterial bloom interactions were examined eutrophic Lake Taihu, China. In situ microcosm nutrient dilution bioassays mesocosm addition experiments conducted determine nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) concentration load thresholds needed control formation. Blooms dominated by toxic,...
Eutrophication mitigation is an ongoing priority for aquatic ecosystems. However, the current eutrophication control strategies (phosphorus (P) and/or nitrogen (N)) are guided mainly by nutrient addition experiments in small waters without encompassing all in-lake biogeochemical processes that associated largely with lake morphological characteristics. Here, we use a global data set (573 lakes) to show relative roles of N vs P affecting underpinned water depth. Mean depth and maximum mixing...
Whole lake monitoring of hypertrophic Lake Taihu, China, was conducted during the summers 2009-2010, with intent identifying environmental factors influencing Microcystis bloom formation and promoting growth toxigenic strains (mcyE possessing). Low N:P ratios (replete N & P)appeared to select for populations spp., whereas nontoxic spp. were dominant in more nutrient limited regions lake. Chlorophyll a (Adj. R(2) = 0.83, p < 0.0001) equally predicative microcystin variance across as...
Abstract We developed and validated an empirical model for estimating chlorophyll a concentrations (Chl ) in Lake Taihu to generate long-term Chl algal bloom area time series from MODIS-Aqua observations 2003 2013. Then, based on the data, we quantified responses of cyanobacterial dynamics nutrient enrichment climatic conditions. showed substantial spatial temporal variability. In addition, annual mean surface exhibited increasing trend across entire lake 2013, with exception 2006 2007. High...
Abstract Terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem degradation is widely recognized as a major global environmental development problem. Although great efforts have been made to prevent degradation, the degree, extent impacts of this phenomenon remain controversial unclear, such its driving mechanisms. Here, we present results from 17-year field investigation (1998–2014) water quality 12-year remote sensing mapping (2003–2014) vegetation presence frequency (VPF) in Eastern Lake Taihu,...
Abstract Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) are linked to increasing anthropogenic nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs. However, CyanoHABs in many large lakes continue despite extensive abatement efforts, mostly focused on external P loading. Internal nutrient cycling can modify availability limitation; thus, understanding the relative importance of vs. internal loading is essential for developing effective mitigation strategies CyanoHABs. We estimated long‐term budgets Lake Taihu,...
