Analysis of Transport and Transformation Characteristics Between Dissolved Phosphorus and Particulate Phosphorus in Water of the Three Gorges Reservoir

To understand the difference between transport coefficients of water runoff, sand discharge, and phosphorus flux in each subsection of a river, a judgement method for analyzing the characteristics of phosphorus transport and transformation in water of rivers was established in this study. Based on the measured data of water runoff, sand discharge, and phosphorus fraction concentrations in the water of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) in January and July 2015, characteristics of phosphorus transport and transformation in the water were analyzed by using the conceptual method. The results showed that the predominant phosphorus fraction in water of the TGR was total dissolved phosphorus (TDP), which accounted for 51%-96% of total phosphorus in water. The TDP flux relative to runoff in the TGR decreased in January 2015 That was caused by the adsorption of TDP by suspended particles in the dry season. In contrast, TDP flux showed additive effect relative to water runoff in July 2015 due to exogenous water inputs with high TDP concentrations in the wet season. Both sand and total particulate phosphorus (TPP) presence in the water showed obvious sediment and retention characteristics during the two periods. The TPP flux presented an additive effect relative to sand discharge, meaning that the major transformation direction of phosphorus fractions was from TDP to TPP. The subsection between Qingxichang and Wanzhou was the main retention area of water, sand, and phosphorus in the TGR, which can be associated with the enhancement of phosphorus adsorption capacity caused by particle size reduction of suspended particles in the subsection.
