Abstract

This study focused on monitoring phosphorus (P) concentrations in the water of the Ramsar site, Lake Vembanad, with a special focus on the mouths of the river bodies draining into the lake, a known hotspot for eutrophication. Four phosphorus fractions—total reactive phosphorus (TRP), total acid hydrolysable phosphorus (TAHP), total organic phosphorus (TOP), and total phosphorus (TP)—were monitored during the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon seasons. The results revealed high levels of all monitored phosphorus fractions, with an average concentration exceeding 300 ppb P across both seasons, indicating a highly eutrophic state. Notably, TRP, TOP, and TP showed high concentrations in both the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon periods. These data suggest significant phosphorus input into the lake’s surface water, potentially triggering excessive algal growth and threatening the biodiversity of this rich wetland ecosystem.
亚洲拉姆萨尔示范湖泊系统磷物种的时间评估
这项研究的重点是监测拉姆萨尔湿地文巴纳德湖水体中的磷(P)浓度,特别关注排入文巴纳德湖的河口,这是一个已知的富营养化热点地区。在季风前和季风后季节,对四种磷组分--总活性磷 (TRP)、总酸水解磷 (TAHP)、总有机磷 (TOP) 和总磷 (TP) 进行了监测。结果显示,所有监测到的磷组分含量都很高,两个季节的平均浓度都超过了 300 ppb P,表明水体处于高度富营养化状态。值得注意的是,季风前和季风后的 TRP、TOP 和 TP 浓度都很高。这些数据表明,大量磷元素进入湖泊表层水,可能会引发藻类过度生长,威胁这一丰富湿地生态系统的生物多样性。
