Study on seasonal variation characteristics and driving factors of greenhouse gas fluxes in Qiandao Lake

  • 摘要: 碳收支平衡是保障水库渔业可持续发展的内在要求。为探究大水面生态渔业水库的温室气体收支规律,以千岛湖为研究对象,采用静态浮箱法和顶空平衡法对水—气界面温室气体的交换通量、水-沉积物界面和上下层水体水样中溶存的二氧化碳 (CO2)、甲烷 (CH4) 和氧化亚氮 (N2O) 浓度开展了为期2年的原位监测。结果显示,水—气界面温室气体排放季节动态差异显著。CO2夏季表现为吸收,其余季节均为排放,年均通量为 (62.840±5.050) mg∙m−2∙h−1,其变化与叶绿素a (Chl-a) 和化学需氧量 (COD) 呈显著负相关 (p<0.01),与水温 (WT) 和总有机碳 (TOC) 呈正相关 (p<0.05)。CH4和N2O全年均为排放,CH4排放峰值出现在夏季,年均通量为 (0.260±0.020) mg∙m−2∙h−1,排放量与总氮 (TN) 呈极显著负相关 (p<0.01),与水温和COD呈正相关 (p<0.05)。N2O最高通量则出现在冬季,年均通量为 (0.050±0.010) mg∙m−2∙h−1,排放量与水温和COD呈极显著负相关 (p<0.01),与Chl-a和TOC呈负相关 (p<0.05)。水—沉积物界面是温室气体的主要产生区域,CO2、CH4和N2O的年平均质量浓度分别约为 (21.510±13.000)、(0.032±0.014) 和(0.011±0.009) mg∙L−1。上层水体温室气体溶存浓度全年维持在较低水平且变化平稳,CO2、CH4和N2O的年平均质量浓度分别约为 (9.671±4.790)、(0.014±0.004)和(0.009±0.008) mg∙L−1。下层水体是温室气体产生与累积的过渡区,气体浓度普遍高于上层且季节波动明显,CO2、CH4和N2O的年平均质量浓度分别约为 (18.240±7.480)、(0.016±0.007) 和 (0.008±0.003) mg∙L−1。研究表明,温度是渔业水库温室气体排放的关键驱动因素,鲢 (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) 和鳙 (Aristichthys nobilis) 通过生命活动影响水环境因子,直接和间接地调节着温室气体的排放格局。

     

    Abstract: Carbon budget balance is an inherent requirement for the sustainability of reservoir fisheries. To explore the greenhouse gas (GHG) budget characteristics of large-scale ecological fishery reservoirs, we conducted a two-year in-situ monitoring study in Qiandao Lake with static floating chamber method and headspace equilibrium method, so as to measure the exchange fluxes of GHGs at the water−air interface, as well as the dissolved concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) in water samples from the water-sediment interface and upper/lower water columns.The results show significant seasonal variations in GHG emissions at the water−air interface. CO2 was absorbed in summer but emitted in all other seasons, with an annual average flux of (62.840±5.050) mg·m−2·h−1. Its variation was significantly negatively correlated with chlorophyll a (Chl-a) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) (p<0.01), and positively correlated with water temperature (WT) and total organic carbon (TOC) (p<0.05). Both CH4 and N2O were emitted throughout the year. The peak CH4 emission occurred in summer, with an annual average flux of (0.260±0.020) mg·m−2·h−1. CH4 emission was extremely significantly negatively correlated with total nitrogen (TN) (p<0.01), and positively correlated with WT and COD (p<0.05). The highest N2O flux was observed in winter, with an annual average flux of (0.050±0.010) mg·m−2·h−1. N2O emission was extremely significantly negatively correlated with WT and COD (p<0.01), and negatively correlated with Chl-a and TOC (p<0.05).The water-sediment interface acts as the primary production zone for greenhouse gases (GHGs). The annual average concentrations (mg∙L−1) of CO2, CH4 and N2O were approximately 21.510±13.000, 0.032±0.014 and 0.011±0.009, respectively. The dissolved concentrations of GHGs in the upper water column remained at a low level and stable throughout the year, with the annual average concentrations (mg∙L−1) of CO2, CH4 and N2O being 9.671±4.790, 0.014±0.004 and 0.009±0.008, respectively. The lower water column functioned as a transition zone for GHG production and accumulation, where the gas concentrations were generally higher than those in the upper water column and exhibited significant seasonal fluctuations. The annual average concentrations (mg∙L−1) of CO2, CH4 and N2O in this layer were 18.240±7.480, 0.016±0.007 and 0.008±0.003, respectively. The results indicate that temperature is the key driving factor regulating GHG emissions from fishery reservoirs. Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) can directly and indirectly modulate the patterns of GHG emissions by altering aquatic environmental factors through their biological activities.
