[Water Quality Change Trend and Risk Analysis of Wuhan Hanjiang River Water Source].

Hanjiang River is closely related to the middle route of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, the Water Diversion Project from the Hanjiang River to the Wei River, and the Water Diversion Project in Northern Hubei. The Wuhan Hanjiang River water source is one of the important drinking water sources in China; its water quality safety is significant to living and production for millions of residents in Wuhan. Based on data from 2004 to 2021, the water quality variation trend and risk of Wuhan Hanjiang River water source were studied.

[Temporal and Spatial Characteristics of Total Phosphorus in the Middle and Lower Yangtze River Mainstem Under New Water and Sediment Conditions].

After the completion of the Three Gorges Reservoir and the upstream reservoir group of the Yangtze River, new water and sediment conditions appeared in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and its influence on the phosphorus concentrations in water has attracted much attention. Therefore, the spatial and temporal distributions of total phosphorus (TP) concentrations in the middle and lower reaches of the mainstem under the new water and sediment conditions were studied. The results show that:① after the construction of the Three Gorges Reservoir, the concentrations of TCP (samples were allowed to settle for 30 min) in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River fluctuates between 0.

[Evaluation of Temporal and Spatial Variation Characteristics of Nutrients in Surface Sediment in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area].

With the construction of the Three Gorges Dam, the river flow pattern and sediment dynamics are expected to be affected. As a consequence, the sediment traits could be impacted by these changes. The temporal and spatial variation characteristics of the nutrient content from 2000 to 2015 in surface sediment were analyzed in the main stream from Jiangjin to the dam site section of the Yangtze River and in the estuaries of the representative input tributaries of the Three Gorges Reservoir, such as the Jialing River, Yulin River, Wujiang River, Xiaojiang River, Daning River, and Xiangxi River.

[Temporal and Spatial Variation Characteristics of the Heavy Metals Content in the Surface Sediment and the Potential Ecological Risk Trends in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area].

With the construction progress of the Three Gorges Project, the hydrological situation of Three Gorges Reservoir changes greatly, which causes the changes of suspended solids precipitation conditions and surface sediment traits. This research analyzed the temporal and spatial variation of the heavy metal pollution in the surface sediment and the potential ecological risk trends during the years from 2000 to 2015 in the trunk stream of the Yangtze River from Jiangjin to the Three Gorges Dam area and some major tributaries, such as Jialing River, Yulin River, Wujiang River, Xiaojiang River, Xiangxi River. The results showed that the average content ranges of heavy metals (including Cu, Pb, Mn, As, Hg etc.
