Effect Analysis of Reservoir Water Quality Improvement with Floating Islands

  • 발행 : 2000.10.01

초록

Three floating islands were constructed on the surface of the reservoir, each consisting of 10 16-㎡ (4${\times}$4 m) segments, made of wood frames and floats. Three species of aquatic macrophytes were planted in each island on June, 1998. Phragmites australis was considered as the suitable aquatic macrophyte for the floating islands since it maintained the most efficient root and shoot balance among the macrophytes. The net primary productivity of P. Australis was 3,604 g/㎡ based on dry weight in 1999, with uptake rates of nitrogen and phosphorus estimated at 77.4 g/㎡/yr and 5.7 g/㎡/yr, respectively. The result of water quality simulation for the floating islands showed that, through adsorption of nutrients and light screening, they could reduce the amount of phytoplankton, thereby decreasing COD concentration.
