摘要
The relationships between inflow and outflow water quality data for Poyang Lake from 1996 to 2016 are discussed and the main influencing factors are identified. TN and TP were the main factors causing a decline in water quality in Poyang Lake during the study period. The water quality of both the inflow and outflow rivers was generally good between 1996 and 2003; however, water quality declined over the study period, which is attributed to an increase in nutrients loads in the watershed. From 2004 to 2011, the water quality of the "Five Rivers" decreased significantly, which caused the water quality of Poyang Lake to decline. Due to the high purification capacity of Poyang Lake, the water quality of the outflow during this period was relatively good. A decline in water quality after this point was affected by pollution loads and hydrological conditions. Specifically, from 2012 to 2016, water quality in Poyang Lake and of the inflow water declined further. This was combined with a decrease in the water-purification capacity of the lake due to changes in the hydrological conditions, resulting in lower water quality at the outflow. Overall, the water quality of the inflow river has been closely related to the water quality in Poyang Lake. The concentrations of TN were significantly higher in the southern and eastern areas of Poyang Lake compared to the western areas. Higher nutrient loading from the Ganjiang River and the Xinjiang River has been an important driver. The concentrations of TP in the southern area of the lake have been significantly higher than in the eastern and western areas. This is attributed to comparatively high TP loads in the Ganjiang River and the Fuhe River. Compared to the changes in hydrological conditions, variations in nutrient loading have had a greater effect on water quality in the lake. © 2019, Science Press. All right reserved.
