摘要
Deep-water hypoxia is an environmental concern in temperate lakes. Seasonal turnover events provide a mechanism for deep-water oxygenation; however, the lake oxygen budget and mixing dynamics during turnovers are poorly understood. In the present study, the oxygen cycle in a small dimictic lake was investigated from long-term field measurements supplemented with output from a three-dimensional numerical model. Photosynthetic production and atmospheric exchange were modeled to predominate during spring and fall turnovers, respectively, contributing 92% (surprisingly) and 8% of the net dissolved oxygen (DO) input to the lake. Of the DO production, 41% occurred under-ice, with a potential to supply 17% ± 11% of the hypolimnetic DO saturation deficit at spring turnover. The corresponding DO sinks were sediment oxygen demand (− 54%), mineralization (− 33%), and nitrification (− 13%). The watercolumn circulation and stratification during pre-winter and spring turnover controlled the inter-annual variability in hypoxia during the following summer. Warm winters (~ 4°C watercolumn leading to rapid summer stratification) and severely cold winters (strong winter stratification with shallow convective mixing in spring) were followed by incomplete spring turnover, whereas, following cold winters (moderate winter stratification and extended convection) turnover was complete. This underscores the connection between winter hydrodynamics and summer water quality in dimictic lakes.
