The SPSS19.0 software was used to analyse the data of enclosure experiments last for 7 days in summer of 2011. Water temperature increase as a factor to establish the statistical model, and the response relation of thermal discharge warming and Coscinodiscus Jonesianus biomass was analyzed quantitatively. The results showed that, it would promote Coscinodiscus Jonesianus growth and reproduction with the water warming at 0.2°C to 0.79°C , which would be restrained at the water warming at 0.8°C to 2.0°C. When the water temperature increase 0.1°C, 0.4°C and 0.7°Cwill respectively result in Coscinodiscus Jonesianus biomass grow 216.12%, 72.87% and 15.05%. While the water temperature increase 1.0°C, 1.5°C and 2.0°C will respectively result in Coscinodiscus Jonesianus biomass reduce 6.38%, 17.95% and 26.17%.

AbstractFish microbiota are intrinsically linked to health and fitness, but they are highly variable and influenced by both biotic and abiotic factors. Water temperature particularly limits bacterial adhesion and growth, impacting microbial diversity and bacterial infections on the skin and gills. Aquaculture is heavily affected by infectious diseases, especially in warmer months, and industry practices often promote stress and microbial dysbiosis, leading to an increased abundance of potentially pathogenic bacteria. In this regard, fish mucosa health is extremely important because it provides a primary barrier against pathogens. We used 16 rRNA V4 metataxonomics to characterize the skin and gill microbiota of the European seabass, Dicentrarchus labrax, and the surrounding water over 12 months, assessing the impact of water temperature on microbial diversity and function. We show that the microbiota of external mucosae are highly dynamic with consistent longitudinal trends in taxon diversity. Several potentially pathogenic genera (Aliivibrio, Photobacterium, Pseudomonas, and Vibrio) were highly abundant, showing complex interactions with other bacterial genera, some of which with recognized probiotic activity, and were also significantly impacted by changes in temperature. The surrounding water temperature influenced fish microbial composition, structure and function over time (days and months). Additionally, dysbiosis was more frequent in warmer months and during transitions between cold/warm months. We also detected a strong seasonal effect in the fish microbiota, which is likely to result from the compound action of several unmeasured environmental factors (e.g., pH, nutrient availability) beyond temperature. Our results highlight the importance of performing longitudinal studies to assess the impact of environmental factors on fish microbiotas.

In order to reduce the influence of thermal discharge from the power plant on the surrounding water environment and the operation efficiency of the power plant, a distorted physical model was presented and applied to Huadian Kemen Power Plant for studying heat transport and analyzing the effects of heat-retaining and diversion facilities near the intake/outlet on the thermal discharge for six scenarios. Field investigations were also used to validate the model. This study is unique as it is the first to elaborate on the impact of heat-retaining and diversion facilities on thermal discharge. The results indicate that the construction of heat-retaining and diversion facilities can decrease the excess temperature at intake to meet the intake requirement and improve the distribution of low temperature rise, but the area of high temperature rise has an increase. When the heat-retaining wall and diversion dike were constructed, the maximum intake temperature rise of Phase III decreased significantly by 1.0–1.3 °C with an average decrease of 0.2 °C, and the maximum value of Phase I and II was reduced by 0.3 °C with little mean change. A comparative experiment with different construction heights was also conducted. Result analysis shows that when the crest elevation was reduced from 3 to 2 m, the influence on the intake temperature rise of Phase I and II could be ignored, and the average temperature rise of Phase III only had an increase of 0.1 °C, suggesting that constructions with 2 m play an effective role in reducing heat return to the intake.

Abstract Water temperature is an important factor modifying fish distribution patterns and community abundance in streams, and this is especially true for salmonids. Knowing that dams often modify the thermal regime of rivers, understanding these changes is of crucial importance for fish habitat management. This study aims to improve knowledge about the impact of dams on the thermal regime of rivers during the summer season and to assess the relative efficiency of two modelling tools used to predict water temperature downstream of dams. A deterministic model (Stream Network Temperature (SNTEMP)) and a statistical model based on a canonical correlation analysis were calibrated on the Fourchue River (St-Alexandre-de-Kamouraska, Québec, Canada) upstream and downstream of a reservoir. SNTEMP was used to simulate mean water temperature time series using meteorological inputs and discharge. The statistical model was used to directly estimate thermal indices (descriptive statistics of the thermal regime). The two models were compared based on their efficiency to estimate thermal indices such as mean and maximum monthly water temperatures and other parameters of importance in the understanding of the distribution and growth of ichthyofauna. Water temperature was monitored at 18 locations in the Fourchue River during the summers of 2011 and 12 locations in 2012 to describe the thermal regime and calibrate the models. The statistical model achieved better results than SNTEMP in estimating most of the thermal indices, especially the mean and maximum daily ranges with root mean square errors of 4.1 and 4.9 °C, respectively, for SNTEMP as compared to 0.5 and 1.1 °C for the leave-one-out validation and 0.6 and 1.4 °C for the split-sample mode for the statistical model. The better performance of the statistical model for metrics related to thermally stressful events for fish makes it more appealing as a management tool for water resources and fisheries managers. However, SNTEMP should be considered when the objective is to investigate the impact of climate change, reservoir operations or other anthropogenic impacts.

ABSTRAKSaat ini untuk memenuhi kebutuhan energi listrik pemerintah mencanangkan program pembangunan pembangkit listrik 10.000 MW. Salah satu implementasinya dengan membangun Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap (PLTU) berbahan bakar batubara seperti PLTU Sampit di Kabupaten Kotawaringin Timur, Propinsi Kalimantan Tengah. Permasalahan utama kegiatan PLTU adalah suhu air buangan yang jauh lebih tinggi dari suhu perairan di sekitarnya. Kenaikan suhu iniselain akan mengurangi efisiensi system pendinginan juga dapat membahayakan kehidupan aquatik. Untuk meminimalkan dampak perlu dilakukan pemodelan adveksi/dispersi panas sebelum dilakukan pembangunan PLTU. Dengan pemodelan ini akan diketahui sebaran panas buangan PLTU sehingga sejak awal dapat dilakukan upaya-upaya untuk mengurangi dampak negatif yang muncul. Selain itu model ini dapat dipakai sebagai bahan pertimbangan dalam penentuan lokasi intake dan outfall sistem air pendingin. Studi ini dilakukan dalam beberapa skenario dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak MIKE-21. Berdasarkan hasil pemodelan diketahui bahwapola arus di perairan sekitar PLTU Sampit lebih dipengaruhi pasang surut dan debit sungai dari hulu. Pada musim timur, suhu air pada lokasi intake cukup terpengaruh oleh suhu air bahang pada outfall khususnya ketika air laut pasang. Perubahan temperaturair pada intake berkisar antara 30,1 – 32 oC. Kenaikan tertinggi terjadi ketika air menuju pasang naik maksimum. Pada musim angin barat, suhu air pada lokasi intake hanya sedikit terpengaruh oleh suhu air bahang pada outfall, perubahan temperatur air pada intake hanya berkisar antara 29,99 – 30,1 oC. Kenaikan tertinggi terjadi ketika air menuju pasang naik maksimum. Resirkulasi air pendingin dengan intensitas cukup besar (+ 2oC) diprediksi terjadi saat air pasang. Hal ini dapat menjadi lebih parah bila debit sungai dari hulu berkurang yaitu ketika musim kemarau.Kata kunci: dispersi panas, PLTU, air bahang, intake, outfallABSTRACTNow to comply the electricity needs, government announced the construction of 10,000 MW power plant. One of its implementation by building Steam Power Plant (PLTU) with coal-fired power such as Sampit in the District of Eastern Kotawaringin, Province of Center of Kalimantan. The main problem of power plant activities is the waste water temperatures much higher than the temperature of the surrounding waters. The rise of temperature will not only reduce the efficiency of the cooling system but also be harmful to aquatic life. To minimize the impact needs to be done advection/dispersion modeling of heat water prior to the construction of the power plant. With this modeling will be known distribution of heat waste from power plant in 2-dimensional, so that can be done since the beginning of efforts to reduce the negative impacts that arise. In addition, this model can be used as a consideration in the determination of the location of the intake and outfall system cooling water. This study was conducted in several scenarios using software MIKE-21. Based on modeling results is known that the current pattern in the waters around the Sampit power plant is more affected by tidal and river flow from upstream. In east monsoon, the water temperature at the intake is quite affected by the heat water temperature at the outfall especially when high tides. Water temperatur changes in intake ranged from 30.1 to 32 oC. The highest increase occurred when the water toward the maximum high tide. In the west monsoon, the water temperature at intake only slightly affected by the heat water temperature on the outfall. Eater temperatur changes on the intake only ranged from 29.99 to 30.1°C. The highest increase occurred when the water toward the maximum high tide. Recirculation cooling water with considerable intensity (+ 2°C) could occur during high tide. It can be more severe if the river flow from upstream is reduced like as at the dry season.Keywords: thermal dispersion, steam powerplant, heat waste water, intake, outfallCitation: Wibowo, M., Hendriyono, W., Nugroho, S., Al Hakim, B., Velly Asvaliantina.
