The effect of agricultural non-point Source Pollution of nitrogen and phosphorous on Lake Eutrophication

Abstract

Based on the data from investigation, the evaluation by equal standard pollution loading method was used to study the agricultural non-point source pollution caused by nitrogen and phosphorous from livestock’s feces pollution, chemical fertilizer pollution and fish breeding pond pollution in Liangzi Lake wetland. The results revealed that: The lost amount of nitrogen and phosphorous was separately 1276.49T, 103.04T; the equivalent standard pollution loading amount was separately 12.76X108 m3, 5.15X108 m3. The lost amount of nitrogen was highest in chemical fertilizer. Based pollution on the understanding of the cause of agricultural non-point source in Liangzi Lake wetland, some countermeasures were suggested according to different pollution source.
