Oxygen Conditions

Oxygen conditions and trophic state of Lake Głębokie (Szczecin, Poland) in the years 2008-2010The research in Lake Głębokie was conducted in the years 2008-2010. Sampling from three selected sites was designed in such a way that vertical profiles of the characteristics of interest were obtained. Measurements were performed to determine the content of dissolved oxygen, oxygen saturation expressed as a percentage, water temperature, total phosphorus, chlorophyll a, dry seston mass, and Secchi disk depth. During the course of a year, water temperature varied from 0.58°C to 24.72°C. However, a permanent thermal stratification was not observed in the summer season due to complete water mixing. Dissolved oxygen concentrations in the water varied within a range that started at hard-to-measure insignificant values and reached up to 9.63 mg O2 l-1, while oxygen saturation reached a maximum of 116% O2. At the same time, it was observed that oxygen conditions gradually worsened as the depth became greater. The largest oxygen deficits occurred in the winter season of 2009-2010. The oxygen conditions were typical for an eutrophic lake. Its high trophic state was confirmed by an analysis performed using the method proposed by Carlson (1977) as well as by an analysis performed according to the directives of the OECD (1982). The trophic state of this lake is borderline eutrophic and hypertrophic. The oxygen conditions found in this lake ought to be seen as not beneficial to fish.

The Impact

Hypolimnetic oxygenation from 1988 to 1991 in the north basin of Amisk Lake increased mean summer (June-August) dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations in the deep hypolimnion (25 m) from <0.4 mg ·L-1 during pretreatment years (1980-1987) to 2.7 mg ·L-1 during treatment. Mean summer hypolimnetic temperatures at 25 m also increased from 6.3 (pretreatment) to 8.1°C (treatment). Profundal (15-25 m) Chironomus spp. abundance in the treated basin increased from <100 to >2000 ·m-2 from 1988 to 1991 whereas Chaoborus spp., Tubificidae, and other taxa remained uncommon at similar depths. Shannon-Weaver indices of diversity decreased as oxygenation progressed, in contrast with previous studies. Similar patterns in densities and diversity were observed in the south basin of Amisk Lake, although the increase in DO concentrations was smaller relative to the north basin. The impact of increased water temperature on macroinvertebrates appeared minor relative to the effects of increased DO concentrations. No changes in macroinvertebrate communities were noted in a nearby reference lake during the study period. Responses to hypolimnetic oxygenation in Amisk Lake differed markedly from those reported for smaller, single-basined water bodies.

In this investigation microalgae Chlorella sp. were isolated and identified from the industrial wastewater. Microalgae species was mass cultivated by using BG11 medium. After 30 days, mixture of Chlorella with different wastewater A, B, C, D, E and F with different ration of Chlorella: wastewater which were 1:6, 1:1, and 2:1. Incubated at room temperature at illuminated area. Dissolved oxygen, TDS, salinity, pH, optical density, oxygen saturation and conductivity were measured for day 0, 10, 20 and 30. For microalgae in wastewater A and C, value of pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, oxygen saturation, conductivity, salinity and TDS did not change while absorbance value decreased from day 0 to day 30. For wastewater B, D, E and F, the absorbance and pH value increase for all concentration from day 0 to day 30. The highest oxygen saturation after 30 days for wastewater B, D, E and F was at concentration 1:6, 2:1 and 1:1 respectively. The highest dissolved oxygen for wastewater B, D and E was at concentration 1:1 and F was at 2:1. The lowest conductivity, salinity and TDS for wastewater B, C, D and F were all at the concentration of 2:1. The result showed that, Chlorella managed to reduce the salinity for wastewater B, C, D and F, at concentration of 2:1 which were 3.67 %, 4.53 %, 5.4 % and 4.91 % respectively.

ABSTRACT: This research aimed to verify the influence of the photoperiod on the performance and survival piabanha-of-Pardo (Brycon vonoi) larvae. Piabanha-of-Pardo larvae 24 hours post-hatch, with body weight of 2.44 ± 0.02mg, and total length of 7.82 ± 0.46mm, were subjected to five different photoperiods: 0L:24D, 6L:18D, 12L:12D, 18L:6D and 24L:0D (871.12 ± 92.65 lux). Daily, the water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), percentage of oxygen saturation, pH, and water conductivity were monitored, and presented similar water quality values among tanks with distinct photoperiods, and within the range considered appropriate for the genus Brycon larvae. Piabanha-of-Pardo larvae have better productive performance and survival rate at longer photoperiods, over 6 hours of light and below 12 hours of light per day. The 9L:15D photoperiod, specified by the derived equation, is indicated for the piabanha larviculture, but researches with the species and the photoperiod need to be better studied.

This paper describes a newly developed combined water temperature-ecological (WT-ECO) model which is employed to simulate the effects of global warming on lake and reservoir ecosystems. The WT model includes (i) variations in the eddy diffusion coefficient based on the degree of thermal stratification and the velocity of wind, and (ii) a sub-model for simulating the freezing and thawing processes of surface water, water temperatures, and the mixing rates between two adjacent layers of water. The ECO model then uses these results to calculate the resultant effect on a lake's ecological dynamics, e.g., composition of phytoplankton species, their respective concentrations, and nutrient concentrations. When the model was benchmarked against Lake Yunoko, a dimictic lake, fairly good agreement was obtained over a 4-yr period; thereby indicating it is suitably calibrated. In addition, to assess the effects of global warming on a lake ecosystem, changes in Lake Yunoko's water temperature/quality were simulated in response to an increase in air temperature of 2 - 4°C. Results indicate that such an increase will (i) increase thermal stratification in summer, which increases the nutrient concentrations in bottom water due to nutrient release from bottom sediment, (ii) increase the concentration of phytoplankton at the beginning of the autumn circulation period, and (iii) change the composition of phytoplankton species.

In shallow lakes, water quality is mostly affected by weather conditions and some ecological processes which vary throughout the day. To understand and model diurnal-nocturnal variations, a deterministic, one-dimensional hourly lake water quality model MINLAKE2018 was modified from daily MINLAKE2012, and applied to five shallow lakes in Minnesota to simulate water temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO) over multiple years. A maximum diurnal water temperature variation of 11.40 °C and DO variation of 5.63 mg/L were simulated. The root-mean-square errors (RMSEs) of simulated hourly surface temperatures in five lakes range from 1.19 to 1.95 °C when compared with hourly data over 4–8 years. The RMSEs of temperature and DO simulations from MINLAKE2018 decreased by 17.3% and 18.2%, respectively, and Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency increased by 10.3% and 66.7%, respectively; indicating the hourly model performs better in comparison to daily MINLAKE2012. The hourly model uses variable hourly wind speeds to determine the turbulent diffusion coefficient in the epilimnion and produces more hours of temperature and DO stratification including stratification that lasted several hours on some of the days. The hourly model includes direct solar radiation heating to the bottom sediment that decreases magnitude of heat flux from or to the sediment.

The Island of Martin Garcia is located in the Upper Río de la Plata, to the south of mouth the Uruguay River. The aim of the present study was to analyse the biodiversity of the island freshwater mollusks and their relationships to environmental variables. Twelve sampling sites were selected, five were along the littoral section of the island and seven were Inland ponds. Seven major environmental variables were measured: water and air temperature, percentage of oxygen saturation, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids and pH. Twenty-seven mollusk species were found, Antillorbis nordestensis, Biomphalaria tenagophila tenagophila , B. t. guaibensis, B. straminea, B. peregrina, Drepanotrema kermatoides, D. cimex, D. depressissimum, Chilina fluminea, C. rushii, C. megastoma, Uncancylus concentricus, Hebetancylus moricandi, Stenophysa marmorata, Heleobia piscium, H. parchappii, Potamolithus agapetus, P. buschii, P. lapidum, Pomacea canaliculata, P. megastoma, Asolene platae, Corbicula fluminea, Eupera platensis, Pisidium sterkianum, P. taraguyense and Limnoperna fortunei. UPGMA clustering of species based on their occurrence in different ecological conditions revealed two main species groups. The Canonical Correspondence Analysis suggests that the species distribution is related to the physico-chemical condition of water. Axis two of the ordination diagram displayed the approximately 95.6% of the correlation between species and environmental variables. Dissolved oxygen, conductivity, water temperature and pH showed the highest fluctuations during the sampling period. The species richness (S) showed relationships mainly with water temperature and conductivity. The biodiversity of the gastropods and bivalves from Martín García Island amounts to up to 26 species. Among the Gastropoda, the Planorbidae family made the most sizeable contribution. The Lithogliphidae P. agapetus (26.28%) and P. buschii (9.50%) showed the highest relative frequencies of occurrence within the littoral environments, while the Planorbidae D. cimex (23.83%) and D. kermatoides (11.59%) likewise did so in the inland ponds.
