The effect of water column hydrodynamics on the transport of solutes across the sediment-water interface
Borovec, Jakub ; Bretón, Felipe ; Jan, Jiří
The paper summarizes the findings from laboratory and field experiments aimed at determining the dependence between water flow and the exchange rates of substances at the sediment-water interface. Two groups of possible approaches and calculations are shown and their use is discussed.
Prediction of phosphorus concentration and trophic conditions in reservoirs
Hejzlar, Josef ; Kopáček, Jiří ; Vystavna, Yuliya
The model prediction of phosphorus (P) concentration in reservoirs is important for controlling water quality and trophic conditions, e.g. to determine to what level external P load should be reduced in order to decrease trophic conditions and achieve good ecological potential. The mass balance of P for 26 reservoirs and lakes in the Czech Republic showed that the relationship between the inflow P concentration and the in-reservoir P concentration is not determined solely by hydrological parameters (water residence time or hydraulic load) or inflow P concentration but is fundamentally influenced by the internal P loading from sediments and in-reservoir P cycling. These are individual characteristics of each reservoir and may change, for example with sediment accumulation or changes in external P load. Therefore, the prediction models need to be assembled and calibrated for each reservoir individually and the model structure should be adapted to their specific conditions.
