The study of the stratification processes in reservoirs is important because they happen along with several physical and chemical changes in the water, as in the distribution of dissolved gases and nutrients. The aim of this work was to study the stratification process of the Capivari-Waterfall Hydroelectric Power Plant, based on the data of the vertical profiles of dissolved oxygen and temperature, as well as the comparison of them with the calculation of Froude's Densimetric Number, and reservoir residence time. The data used are part of the self-monitoring program carried out by COPEL. These data were collected quarterly between 2005 and 2016. The hydraulic and operational data from the reservoir were used to calculations. According to the measurements of dissolved oxygen and temperature, it was considered to be stratified during almost all the year, with a trend of circulation in the colder months, this behavior characterizes lakes with warm monomictic circulation pattern. Therefore, the result of Froude's Densimetric Number, corresponded correctly with the observed. Regarding the residence time, this was not consistent with the results obtained, from the models. The use of different methodologies in evaluating circulation in reservoirs should be used in order to make the best management decision.

The Impact

When planning the construction of a hydroelectric power plant, an important segment is adequate monitoring of water quality. With an appropriate monitoring program, the multifunctional use of artificial lakes is enabled. Eutrophication (nutrient over-enrichment) of water in a lake is a phenomenon that has been noticed in all lakes. The consequence of eutrophication is the endangerment of the aquatic ecosystem. Eutrophication is a phenomenon that occurs as a response of the aquatic ecosystem to the increased concentration of nutrients, phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N), due to natural and anthropogenic activities. Recent research indicates a correlation between local climate change and water circulation and the impact of climate change on all phenomena in the hydrological cycle. Temperature fluctuations, huge amounts of rain when precipitation is analysed, constant heating and increase in humidity all affect more intense eutrophication. The key conclusions of the research dealing with the construction of the hydroelectric power plant in Komarnica are: to introduce monitoring (permanent control) of water quality in lakes in order to minimize or control, even prevent eutrophication. Each artificial lake has its own unique characteristics. The dependence of chlorophyll, phosphorus and lake volume varies depending on the month, season and year. The proposal for the lake that will be built on Komarnica, which is part of the future hydroelectric power plant, is a monthly monitoring of the concentration of chlorophyll, nutrients and the volume of the lake. Seasonal monitoring depends on precipitation, hydrological and limnological characteristics and trends of dry and rainy episodes. Analyzes and previous research have shown that the introduction of mandatory parameters for monitoring water quality does not increase the cost of electricity production and energy conservation, but significantly improves and enhances the quality of the environment.

Abstract Cypripedium calceolus is considered an endangered species in the territory of Poland. Population of this rare species, situated at Lake Kwiecko (Western Pomerania), was regularly monitored in the years 1986-2013. The studied population has been under the permanent influence of the nearby hydroelectric power plant for almost 45 years. The field observations showed that the power plant had no negative impact on the condition of Cypripedium calceolus population. An indication of its good condition was, among others, an increase in the size - from 150 to 350 specimens within the study period.
