摘要:
A heavy infestation of aquatic weeds(Egeria densaandEleocharis sphacelata)in a 1.92 ha lake (Parkinsons Lake, North Island, New Zealand) disappeared within 2 years of the introduction of Chinese grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellaVal). The elimination of aquatic plants did not result in any significant change in dissolved oxygen, water temperature, or annual fluctuations in lake levels over the successive 2 years. Dissolved inorganic phosphorus concentrations did not increase appreciably although there was a short term rise in particulate phosphorus levels. Oxidised nitrogen fluctuations were small in the lake over the experimental period. Some reduction in water transparency occurred although chlorophyllalevels showed no overall increase. There were increases in zooplankton numbers and biomass. A large increase of ammonium nitrogen in the lake accrued 12 months after all macrophytes had been eliminated, this possibly was a result of heavy use of inshore water by cattle.
