摘要

养分富集会损害蒸汽和河流的生物完整性。在加利福尼亚中部海岸的几个流域,土地利用方式产生的营养物质已被确定为导致藻类过度生长的水质损害源。我们开发了一种基于藻类的多指标指数来评估该地区溪流和河流的生物完整性,因为藻类通常会对营养物质水平的变化做出直接反应。此外,我们还将藻类生物完整性指数应用于制定基于效应的氮减排目标。基于硅藻自生态、群落结构、生态行会、耐受性和不耐受性的 11 个单独指标被纳入该指数。所有藻类生产指标均未达到纳入指数的重现性标准。生物完整性指数与人类干扰高度相关(r = - 0.6213),在受干扰最少、中等和最严重的地点之间存在显著差异。分片线性回归结果显示,硝酸盐-氮与该指数之间存在陡峭的负相关关系,以 0.505 mg/L 硝酸盐-氮为分界点,超过该分界点,负趋势变得不明显。硝酸盐与生物完整性指数之间关系的这种变化表明,该分界点有助于为该地区的硝酸盐-氮制定合理的基于效应的标准。

Development and application of an algae multi-metric index to inform ecologically relevant nitrogen reduction targets

Development and application of an algae multi-metric index to inform ecologically relevant nitrogen reduction targets

Nutrient enrichment can impair the biotic integrity of steams and rivers. Nutrients derived from land use practices have been identified as sources of water quality impairment in several Central California Coast watersheds resulting in excess algal growth. We developed an algae-based multi-metric index to assess the biotic integrity of streams and rivers in this region because algae often respond directly to changes in nutrient levels. Additionally, we apply the algal index of biotic integrity to the development of an effects-based nitrogen reduction target. Eleven individual metrics based on diatom autecologies, community structure, ecological guilds, tolerance, and intolerance were incorporated into the index. All algal production metrics failed reproducibility criteria for inclusion in the index. The index of biotic integrity was highly correlated with human disturbance (r = − 0.6213) and was significantly different between classes of least-, intermediate-, and most-disturbed sites. Piecewise linear regression showed a steep negative relationship between nitrate–N and the index with a breakpoint of 0.505 mg/L nitrate–N, above which the negative trend became insignificant. This change in the relationship between nitrate and the index of biotic integrity suggests that this breakpoint can aid the development of a reasonable effects-based criterion for nitrate–N in this region.

期刊介绍: Hydrobiologia publishes original research, reviews and opinions regarding the biology of all aquatic environments, including the impact of human activities. We welcome molecular-, organism-, community- and ecosystem-level studies in contributions dealing with limnology and oceanography, including systematics and aquatic ecology. Hypothesis-driven experimental research is preferred, but also theoretical papers or articles with large descriptive content will be considered, provided they are made relevant to a broad hydrobiological audience. Applied aspects will be considered if firmly embedded in an ecological context.
