Assessment of Climate Change Impacts on Water Quality in a Tidal Estuarine System Using a Three-Dimensional Model
Climate change is one of the key factors affecting the future quality and quantity of water in rivers and tidal estuaries. A coupled three-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model has been developed and applied to the Danshuei River estuarine system in northern Taiwan to predict the influences of climate change on water quality. The water quality model considers state variables includin...
متن کاملDeterminations of humic substances and other dissolved organic matter and their effects on the increase of COD in Lake Biwa.
Humic substances and other dissolved organic matter (DOM) in Lake Biwa and the surrounding rivers were investigated to elucidate their origins and behavior. An annual increase in chemical oxygen demand (COD) has been observed in the northern basin of Lake Biwa since 1985. The concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the northern and southern basins of Lake Biwa were 1.7-2.4 mgC/l and...
متن کاملWater Quality Modeling and Evaluation of Nutrient Control Strategies Using QUAL2K in the Small Rivers
Background: Qual2k is a stream water quality model and was used to evaluate the water quality of the Kine-Vars River and assess the response of the river to nutrient management strategies. Methods: For that purpose, 7 sample stations were selected and surface water samples were collected in the winter and summer of 2012 and were analyzed for temperature, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen dem...
متن کاملEffect of Dissolved Oxygen and Chemical Oxygen Demand to Nitrogen Ratios on the Partial Nitrification/Denitrification Process in Moving bed Biofilm Reactors
Partial nitrification was reported to be technically feasible and economically favorable, especially for wastewaterwith high ammonium concentration or low C/N ratio. In this study, the effect of dissolved oxygen (DO)and influent ratio of chemical oxygen demand to nitrogen (COD/N) ratio on biological nitrogen removal fromsynthetic wastewater was investigated. Experiments were c...
متن کاملEast-West Distribution of Nutrients and Dissolved Inorganic Carbon in the Northern North Pacific in Autumn
We measured nutrient and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) concentrations from west to east across the northern North Pacific Ocean from station K2 to Ocean Station Papa during September and October 2005. At 2000 m depth, silicate levels increased and dissolved oxygen levels decreased from west to east. This trend was attributed to seawater in the layer flowing from west to east in the northern ...
