The impacts of the hydraulic retention effect and typhoon disturbance on the carbon flux in shallow subtropical mountain lakes

説明

A typhoon is extreme weather that flushes terrestrial carbon (C) loads and temporally mixes the entire water columns of lakes in subtropical regions. A C flux varies based on the trophic level associated with the ecological cycle related to hydraulic retention time (residence time). Herein, we sought to clarify how the hydraulic retention time and the disturbance from a typhoon affect the C flux regimes in two subtropical mountain lakes in a humid region of Taiwan with different trophic levels—oligotrophic and mesotrophic. We investigated the meteorological data and vertical profiles of the water temperature, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved organic C (DOC), and chlorophyll a (Chl. a) during the pre-typhoon period (April–July), during the typhoon period (August–November), and the post-typhoon period (December–March) for five years (2009–2010 and 2015–2017). We applied a three-dimensional environmental model (Fantom) to investigate the hydraulic retention effect on the net ecosystem production (NEP) using the residence time in stratified lakes. The results demonstrate that typhoon-induced mixing associated with the hydraulic retention effect plays one of the critical roles in controlling the NEP and C flux in shallow subtropical lakes.
