摘要

In the context of the European Water Framework Directive, we studied the possible impact ofreduced emissions on phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations in a lowland river-lake system (HavelRiver, Germany). As a prerequisite, we quantified the retention of nutrients in the river from mass balances and deducedits seasonal variation. We detected that about 30% of the total nitrogen input is retained within the surveyed river section.In contrast, phosphorus release from sediments was shown to cause a considerable increase in present P concentrations.Average net phosphorus release rates of about 20 mg P m−2 d−1 in late summer were estimated for the HavelLakes. Based on the observed patterns of N retention and P release we parametrized a newly developed water qualitysimulation program (TRAM), which allows alternative model approaches of different complexity to be implemented andtested. To account for the future trend of internal P loading, the phosphorus excess in lake sediments was estimatedfrom core samples and included in the model as a state variable. For analyzing scenarios of reduced nutrientemissisions, the water quality simulation program was linked to mesoscale hydrological catchment models forthe first time. From scenario simulations we conclude that internal P loading is likely to counteract effortsof emission control for decades. Even by significant reductions in external P loads, a persistent phosphoruslimitation of primary production can hardly be established in the analyzed time frame of 13 years. Though inthe short run a continued reduction in nitrogen loads appears to be the more promising approach of eutrophication management, we recommend enhanced efforts to diminish both N and P emissions.
