To analyze the spatial-temporal distribution and sedimentation characteristics of suspended solids in reservoirs, high-frequency monitoring of a sediment trap and buoy, combined with three-dimensional water sampling, was conducted and analyzed in Xin'anjiang Reservoir for a year. The results showed that the turbidity data of the buoy has significant correlation with rainfall, inflow, and suspended solids (SS), particularly for SS (<0.01, =0.

The tail of the reservoir is the unstable zone regarding water quality and phytoplankton community. Therefore, it is the crucial zone in aquatic ecosystem transitions. To understand the transition characteristics and driving mechanisms of water environment dynamics, high-frequency monitoring of the water environment and phytoplankton community in the tail of a deep and large reservoir, the Xin'anjiang Reservoir in southeast of China, was conducted using a water quality monitoring buoy and three-day interval water sampling during 18 months.

In order to recognize the risk of odorous compounds and its driving mechanisms in water source reservoirs, the water quality, plankton, and odorous compounds of 17 provincial water source reservoirs in Jiangsu Province were investigated during a high-risk period of odorous compounds. A high eutrophication status, such as high algal biomass and low transparency, were widely observed in our study reservoirs. In addition, 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) exceeded the standard in some water layers of one-third of the reservoirs, of which the average concentration was (13.

To reveal the law of external pollution in the plain river network of the Taihu catchment, we investigated nitrogen, phosphorus, and dissolved organic carbon daily, as well as automatic recording data for flow rate and rainfall in Dapu River from 1 March, 2017 to 28 February, 2018. Dapu River, a typical inflowing river of Lake Taihu, usually has a reciprocating flow. A reciprocating flow is a common condition in the plain river network located in the Yangtze Delta.

Based on the one-year hourly water temperature profiles and the associated environmental drivers during the past eight years in Shahe Reservoir, Jiangsu Province, China from 2009 to 2016, the factors underlying the seasonal variation of thermal stratification and water quality response were investigated. It was shown that the thermal stratification was a typical subtropical one-cycle mixing model, lasting from May to September. The thermal stratification appeared and disappeared when the surface water temperature was 21 ℃ in the late spring and 19 ℃ in the middle of autumn.

The proliferation of diatoms is an ecological disaster that harms the water quality of many reservoirs in China. In order to reveal the driving factors of abnormal algal blooms in reservoirs, phytoplankton community structure and the associated environmental factors from 2009 to 2016 from Shahe Reservoir in Tianmuhu were analyzed. Results showed that diatoms and there dominant genus were predominately driven by temperature, and the relationship between hydrology and nutrition was insignificant.
