Analysis and Evaluation of Agricultural Non-point Source Pollution Sources in Four Cities in the Pearl River Delta by XIA Lijia, YU Muqin, YAN Meng, JIANG Yu, XIONG Jing

“…Based on the 2018 statistical yearbook,this paper carries out the statistics and analysis on the agricultural non-point source pollution of the four major economic cities,namely Guangzhou,Dongguan,Shenzhen and Foshan in the Pearl River Delta by the inventory analysis method.The study found that:In 2018,the four cities in the Pearl River Delta produced 137 179.3 tons of COD,19 345.5 tons of TN,2 865.2 tons of TP,and 2 926.4 tons of NH⁺₄-N from agricultural non-point source pollution,among which the COD is considered as the primary pollutant,mainly from livestock and poultry breeding,while TN,NH⁺₄-N and TP mainly come from rural life and planting industry.In terms of regions,the pollutant emission intensity of Foshan is 427.42 kg/hm²,which is 1.5 times that of Guangzhou,ranking first among the four cities.The comprehensive water quality index caused by agricultural non-point source pollution in Guangzhou and Foshan is both greater than 4,so the two cities are considered as severely polluted areas,with heavy pressure to reduce agricultural non-point source pollution,while Dongguan and Shenzhen are lightly polluted areas.…”

Study on the Optical Properties of Water in Yinjia Lake in Summer by WU Chao, WU Xiaodong, GE Xuguang, WANG Wei, FENG Lian, YANG Jiuyun, TAN Ya

“…To explore the optical properties and impact factors of water in summer,and to provide reference with the submerged macrophytes restoration in Daye urban lakes,the study on Yinjia Lake,a typical urban lake in Daye City,Hubei Province in the summer of 2017 was conducted by field investigation and indoor analysis.The results show that:①The average secchi depth(SD) in Yinjia Lake in summer is (0.29±0.09) m,the average optical attenuation coefficient (K_d) is (3.52±0.16)/m;②The average concentration of suspended solids (SS) is (38.60±14.66) mg/L,the average concentration of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) is (14.80±7.80) μg/L,and that of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) is (11.49±1.55) μg/L.It can be concluded that:①The Pearson correlation coefficients of K_d with Chl-a,CDOM and SS are 0.572,0.078 and 0.835 respectively,the main impact factor of K_d is SS,followed by Chl-a and CDOM;②According to the euphotic depth (Z_eu)/water depth (depth) threshold,the submerged macrohytes in most waters of Yinjia Lake could not recover naturally in summer,and some auxiliary engineering measures such as controlling water level and reducing suspended solids are employed to improve the underwater lighting conditions.…”
