Effects of Alkalinity and External Sulphate and Phosphorus Load on Water Chemistry in Enclosures in an Eutrophic Shallow Lake
1998
Bellemakers, Martijn J. S. | Maessen, Mario
As a result of changes in hydrology, the former mesotrophic, shallow lake Naardermeer, has been eutrophicated during the last decades. To compensate for shortage of water, eutrophicated water with different chemical characteristics has been supplied. In order to determine the effects of alkalinity, acidity and external sulphate and phosphorus load on eutrophication processes, developments in water chemistry have been studied in enclosures. A decrease of the phosphorus load of the lake did not improve water quality on the short term. This observation was confirmed by this enclosure experiment. Reduction of alkalinity did improve water quality, particularly by reductions of turbidity and chlorophyll-a content. The significant increase in sulphate load in the water layer led to deterioriation of the water quality and an increased biomass of sessile algae by internal eutrophication, probably as a result of increased sulphate reduction in the sediment. Therefore, it seems that lowering of sulphate concentrations in the inlet water after the removal of phosphorus is necessary to improve the water chemistry. The best option, however, is to restore the former hydrological conditions after which the system will be fed only by seepage of groundwater poor in nutrients and sulphate.
