Abstract
The eutrophication of lake water bodies has been emphasized for decades in our country due to its severe environmental effects. Indeed, 85.4% of lakes have met the eutrophication standard, and 40.1% of the lakes have met the severe eutrophication standard in China nowadays. Taihu lake, as the most important freshwater lake in eastern China, has been embarrassed because of the serious cyanobacteria outbreak problem every year. In this study, a statistic analysis of cyanobacteria outbreak in the offshore area of Taihu lake is conducted. Both the satellite image and field monitoring data are cited and analyzed. As a result, it is confirmed that the cyanobacteria outbreak effects are serious in spring and summer due to the high temperature and the high ratio of TN/TP. Additionally, the variations of TN/TP and cyanobacteria density are both computed and compared to show the environmental issues close to the Taihu lake.
