Abstract:To improve the transparency of the Beijing Shahe reservoir and create conditions for the recovery of submerged macrophytes, we added Daphnia magna in the reservoir water to enhance transparency by taking advantage of its characteristic of eating algae and promoting particle deposition. The density of added Daphnia magna and its effect on water and sediment quality were investigated. Results showed that the optimum density of Daphnia magna was 5~15 ind·L?1. At this density, the density of algae decreased from 2.4×106 to 4~6×104 cell·mL?1. The transparency increased from 40 to 100 cm, while the turbidity decreased from 19.7 to 3 NTU within 3~5 d. After the Daphnia magna releasing, the COD of water did not change significantly, while the removal efficiency of TN and TP was 70.2% and 54.9%, respectively. That is because Daphnia magna promoted the deposition of suspended particulate nitrogen and phosphorus. The concentration of NH3-N increased by 32.2%, mainly due to the rapid decrease of algal, which weakened its adsorption of NH3-N. The organic matter, TN and TP in the sediment increased after adding Daphnia magna.Therefore, the low transparency of lake and reservoir should be treated by adding appropriate density of Daphnia magna, and comprehensive measures need to be taken by considering the algae and sediment conditions in the reserviors. Key words:Daphnia magna/ adding density/ transparency improvement/ water quality improvement/ sediment.
