Jiang W, Pan H, Yang N, Xiao H. Dam inundation duration as a dominant constraint on riparian vegetation recovery. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 904:166427. [PMID: 37619724 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
The identification of limiting factors is essential for the ecological restoration of riparian ecosystems degraded by the damming of rivers, but remains unclear. Here, we quantitatively assessed the relative importance of environmental factors and revealed the main limiting factors for riparian vegetation restoration and their influencing mechanisms, using riparian plant and environmental data of seven large reservoirs in southwest China. We found that inundation duration had a significantly greater effect on riparian vegetation distribution, cover and diversity than environmental factors such as inundation depth, rainfall, humidity, temperature, sunshine hours, aspect, slope, surface relief, soil pH, available nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP), and available potassium (AK); vegetation cover, species richness, complexity and dominance were highly significantly negatively correlated with inundation duration (p < 0.01); inundation for 5 months is close to the tolerance limit of most plants and poses a significant limiting effect on the vegetation restoration in the reservoir riparian. Therefore, the inundation duration should be highlighted in riparian vegetation restoration. Meanwhile, incorporating the riparian inundation into the river ecological scheduling objectives to shorten the inundation duration and thus radically alleviate the limitation is a new opportunity for vegetation restoration in the reservoir riparian.

Abstract
Water storage reservoirs alternately inundate and expose the drawdown zones, limiting riparian vegetation that provides wildlife habitats and contributes to the aquatic food-web. To characterize plant distributions and hydrogeomorphic associations, we inventoried quadrats in transects extending from the full-pool (FP) margin, downwards 12 m through the drawdown zones at sites around the Duncan Reservoir in British Columbia, Canada. Among the 69 plant species, black cottonwoods (Populus trichocarpa), willows (primarily Salix sitchensis) and other trees and shrubs occurred sparsely, rarely extending below 2 m below FP. Perennial herbaceous plants, especially horsetail (Equisetum arvense) and sedges (primarily Carex utriculata), were most common, extending down ~5 m below FP, and ruderal annual plants occurred sparsely at greater depths. Vegetation Cover and Species Richness were correlated with environmental factors, with (1) Elevation being highly influential, reflecting inundation duration and depth. (2) Position, longitudinal location, reflected greater vegetation diversity downstream of the reservoir. (3) Finer Substrate texture was favorable to retain moisture, but coarse sediments would resist erosion. (4) Shallow Slope was favorable to reduce drainage and included finer sediments. (5) Distance from the FP shoreline could reflect seed source proximity. Stepwise linear modeling with combined environmental factors accounted for ~30% of the variation in Vegetation Cover and Richness, and Canonical Correspondence Analysis revealed plant groupings relative to the environmental influences. At this and other storage reservoirs, regimes that reduce the frequency and duration of inundation could promote vegetation in locations with suitable environmental conditions in the upper drawdown zones, thus providing ecosystem enhancement.

[PMID: 36621487 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.161422] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) is one of the largest hydropower projects around the world which greatly alters the ecological function of the original ecosystem. The riparian zone of TGR is subject to a frequent fluctuation of water level, leading to severe nitrogen loss by leaching. Cyndon dactylon, a perennial stress tolerant plant, is one of the dominant plant species in the riparian zone of TGR. The underlying mechanism that C. dactylon can survive the nitrogen limitation has been under debate. In this study, we sampled the plant tissues of C. dactylon and the surrounding soils across different water levels and seasons in the riparian zone of TGR to explore the possible strategy for them to mining nitrogen. Our study found that the C. dactylon in the TGR riparian zone had endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria, particularly enriched in the plant foliage. The abundance of endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria was significantly negatively correlated with soil ammonia, nitrate, and organic matter, and significantly positively correlated with total phosphorous and moisture content. The endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in C. dactylon were highly diverse, with Proteobacteria as the main dominant genera. The mutual cooperation mode among bacterial species made the endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria community of C. dactylon more resilient to environmental pressure, thus more readily adapting to conditions of repeated long-term flooding in the riparian zone of the TGR.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:919409.

Abstract
Riparian plants are exposed to harmful stress induced by flooding, which is often accompanied by eutrophication in the Three Gorges Reservoir Region. The phenomenon is mainly caused by domestic sewage discharges, slow water flow, and agricultural fertilizer pollution. Simulating abiotic stress, such as flooding at the initial period, can act as a signal and induce positive responses of plants to subsequent severe stress. In addition, eutrophication supplies nutrients, provides a favorable environment in the early stages of plant, and facilitates good performance in later development. However, whether early flooding (with or without eutrophication) acts as positive cue or as stress on plants at different developmental stages remains unclear. To address this question, seeds of Polygonum hydropiper were collected from low and high elevations in the hydro-fluctuation belt of the Three Gorges Reservoir Region. Plants germinated from these seeds were subjected to shallower and shorter early flooding treatments with or without eutrophication. Subsequently, plants were subjected to deeper and longer flooding treatments with or without eutrophication. Early flooding and eutrophic flooding significantly induced generation of adventitious roots, suggesting morphological adaptation to flooding. Although early flooding and eutrophic flooding treatments did not increase plant biomass in subsequent treatments compared with control, stem length, length and width of the 1st fully expanded leaf, and biomass of plants in the early eutrophic treatment were higher than these of the early flooding treatment plants. These results suggest a negative lag-effect of early flooding, and also indicate that nutrient inputs can alleviate such effects. Similarly, subsequent eutrophic flooding also enhanced plant growth compared with subsequent flooding, showing significantly higher values of leaf traits and adventitious root number. Plants originated from low elevation had significantly higher functional leaf length and stem biomass compared with those from high elevation. These results suggest that nutrient inputs can alleviate negative effects of early and subsequent flooding on growth of P. hydropiper with the generation of adventitious roots.

Abstract
The East-African lowland coastal forest (LCF) is one of Africa’s centres of species endemism, representing an important biodiversity hotspot. However, deforestation and forest degradation due to the high demand for fuelwood has reduced forest cover and diversity, with unknown consequences for associated terrestrial carbon stocks in this LCF system. Our study assessed spatio-temporal land use and land cover changes (LULC) in 1998, 2008, 2018 in the LCF ecosystem, Tanzania. In addition, we conducted a forest inventory survey and calculated associated carbon storage for this LCF ecosystem. Using methods of land use change evaluation plug-in in QGIS based on historical land use data, we modelled carbon stock trends post-2018 in associated LULC for the future 30 years. We found that agriculture and grassland combined increased substantially by 21.5% between the year 1998 and 2018 while forest cover declined by 29%. Furthermore, forest above-ground live biomass carbon (AGC) was 2.4 times higher in forest than in the bushland, 5.8 times in the agriculture with scattered settlement and 14.8 times higher than in the grassland. The estimated average soil organic carbon (SOC) was 76.03 ± 6.26 t/ha across the entire study area. Our study helps to identify land use impacts on ecosystem services, supporting decision-makers in future land-use planning.

Abstract
The construction of dams has caused riparian habitat degradation and ecosystem service loss globally. It is critical to assess the response of riparian plant communities to inundation gradients for their conservation. Recent evidence suggests that plant community assemblages are governed by flooding stress, soil nutrient availability, climate (environmental filtering) and dispersal, speciation, local extinction (dispersal filtering), but it remains unclear which dominates the riparian ecosystem regulated by a dam. Thus, this article aims to elucidate the relative importance of environmental and dispersal filtering to variations in plant communities to understand community assembly mechanisms in riparian ecosystems. Here we used plant community data related to four elevations in the riparian zone of the Three Gorges Dam Reservoir in China to show that species richness and diversity, community height, and the cover of total, annual, and exotic plant categories decreased, while the cover of perennial and native plant groups increased under higher flooding stress. Community composition varied substantially with elevation, and species composition tended to converge with increased inundation, characterized by flood-tolerant species. The community composition underwent stronger environmental filtering at low elevations and stronger dispersal filtering at high elevations, with stronger environmental filtering across riparian ecosystems. Therefore, we conclude that dam inundation drives community assemblages of riparian plants by the combined effects of environmental and dispersal filtering. Still, their relative contribution varies between elevations, and environmental filtering is more important in shaping community assembly. This study is the first to confirm that plant community assembly in the dam-regulated riparian area is determined by both niche-based and stochastic processes. Thus, we highlighted the importance of considering inundation intensity, propagule sources, and river connectivity when implementing restoration projects.

Abstract
Many rivers across the globe are regulated by dams, resulting in a strong alteration of the plant community composition of the drawdown zone. But, how these changes happen along the drawdown zone is less understood. In this study, a multivariate analysis was used to explore plant composition and similarity along the drawdown zone of the Three Gorges Dam Reservoir (TGDR), China. The dominant plant species, species richness, indicator species, and growth form were compared among the upstream, midstream, and downstream of the TGDR. Moreover, variation partitioning was used to determine the relative importance of environmental factors and spatial factors. Results showed that only a few species contributed the most to the community composition of the study area, and there was an extreme similarity in the plant community composition across the three different river segments. Furthermore, the results of the linear regression model demonstrated a steady declining trend in species richness along the drawdown zone, with the lowest species richness in the downstream segment. In addition, variation partitioning revealed 11% and 8% of the species composition change under environmental and spatial factors, respectively. Our results suggested that the dam impoundment led to the convergence of species composition along the drawdown zone of the TGDR, and environmental filtering and dispersal limitation played an imperative role in shaping species composition. The study highlighted the importance of restoration activities in overcoming the barriers of seed dispersal and seedling establishment in the degraded drawdown zone ecosystem of the TGDR.

Net Primary Production Predicted by the Proportion of C:N:P Stoichiometric Ratio in the Leaf-Stem and Root of Cynodon Dactylon (Linn.) in the Riparian Zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir. WATER 2020.

Abstract
Net primary production (NPP) is closely related to the proportion of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in the leaf-stem and root of perennial herbs. However, the relationship of NPP with the C:N:P stoichiometric ratio in above- and below-ground plant tissues remains unknown under the periodic flooding stresses in the riparian zone ecosystem. In this study, the leaf-stem and root C, N, P content and biomass of Cynodon dactylon (Linn.) Pers. (C. dactylon) were investigated at the riparian zone altitudes of 145–155, 155–165, and 165–175 m above sea level (masl) of in a Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) tributary–Pengxi River. The results showed that the NPP and biomass of C. dactylon had a similar decreasing trend with a riparian zone altitudes decrease. The root of C. dactylon showed relatively lower N and P content, but much higher N and P use efficiency with higher C:N and C:P ratio than that of a leaf-stem under N limitation conditions. NPP was positively correlated to C:N in the stem-leaf to root ratio (C:Nstem-leaf/root) and C:P ratio in the root (C:Proot ratio). Hydrological and C:N:P stoichiometric variables could predict 68% of the NPP variance, and thus could be regarded as the main predictor of NPP in the riparian zone of the TGR.

Abstract
Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers (C. dactylon) is one of the dominant plants in the water level fluctuation (WLF) zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) tributaries. However, the leaves of C. dactylon can decay to increase the inputs of nutrients under flood inundation, increasing the risk of eutrophication in the TGR tributaries. Nutrient inputs from the leaf decay of C. dactylon in three interfaces, namely, water-sediment (WS), water-C. dactylon (WC) and water-sediment-C. dactylon (W-S-C), were estimated in a 180 d inundation experiment. The results showed that the kinetic processes of total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) and total dissolved phosphorus (TDP) input accorded with the power function equation: y = axb for the WS, WC and W-S-C interfaces (R2s > 0.72, p < 0.001). The cumulative TDN input from leaf decay of C. dactylon in the WC interface was 506.44 mg N kg-1 of biomass, which was significantly higher than that in the W-S-C interface with 422.24 mg N kg-1 of biomass (p < 0.05). However, no significant differences in TDP input were found between the WC and W-S-C interfaces (p > 0.05). The total amounts of TDN and TDP inputs at the 165-175 m altitude were 21,688.81 and 13,121.68 kg year-1, respectively, which were approximately 3.17 times those from the 145-155 m altitude of the WLF zone. The amounts of TDN and TDP inputs from the leaves of C. dactylon for the whole WLF zone were 49,261.65 and 29,803.17 kg year-1, respectively, which were 0.1 and 2.7 times the annual permissible discharge amount of pollutants calculated from a municipal wastewater treatment plant with the peak flow of 60,000 m3/d according to Class I (A) of the Wastewater Discharge Standard (GB18918-2002) in China. Thus, the aboveground part of this perennial herb should be harvested in a timely manner before reflooding, especially at the higher altitudes of the WLF zone to decrease eutrophication risk.

Abstract
A large-scale and high-dropout water-level-fluctuation zone (WLFZ) was formed by the construction of cascaded large dam in the southwest hydropower base of China. The original land use patterns changed significantly by the formation of the WLFZ, which possibly affected the soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and local carbon cycle. However, little is known about the effects of land uses before dam construction on the SOC stocks in the WLFZ. To address this, we chose the Nuozhadu mega reservoir built in 2014 in the upper Mekong River basin as our study area. We established five sampling transects around the reservoir and sampled them in 2015. Each transect contained three vertical sampling lines representing three land-use types: natural forest, farmland, and rubber plantations. SOC stocks were determined in the WLFZ and in the infralittoral reference zone (IRZ), and the interactions among SOC, land uses, soil erosion, inundation, and other soil physicochemical properties were analyzed to establish the factors controlling SOC in the WLFZ. The average soil organic carbon density (SOCD) was not significantly different between the WLFZ and IRZ, but it differed significantly among the three types of land uses. The SOC stocks in natural forests of the WLFZ and IRZ were significantly greater than those in the other land use types. The SOCD decreased with increasing elevation in the natural forest and rubber plantation in the WLFZ, while no significant trend was found in farmland. These results indicated that the construction of a large dam in southwestern China may not lead to significant changes in regional SOC stocks, but it can result in the redistribution of SOC in the large-scale and high-dropout WLFZ. Land use before dam construction can affect the background concentrations of SOC, soil physicochemical properties, and soil erosion rate in the WLFZ, which controlled the redistribution of SOC.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 25:31262-31271. [PMID: 30194572 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-018-3087-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2018] [Accepted: 08/27/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Hydrological regimes have been significantly altered since the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) raised the water level of the reservoir to the maximum design level of 175 m in October 2010. This change might greatly influence the forms of phosphorus (P) in the sediment and the adjacent riparian soil. The purpose of this study was to reveal the lateral (sediment, water-level-fluctuation zone soil, and upland soil) and longitudinal (from the end of backwater area to the TGD) trends in P factions. Samples from 11 sites located along the main stem and ten sites located along eight tributaries were collected in June 2017. The P fractions were determined using the Standards, Measurements, and Testing (SMT) protocol. The results showed that the order of increase for average pH values was sediment (7.58 ± 0.62), WLFZ soil (7.44 ± 0.29), and adjacent upland soil (7.20 ± 0.68). The total organic carbon in the sediment was also highest with an average of 9.15 ± 2.97 mg·g-1. The average concentrated HCl-extractable P (total P), organic P (OP), inorganic P (IP), HCl-extractable P (HCl-P), and NaOH-extractable P (NaOH-P) were 630.02 ± 212.24, 161.89 ± 90.77, 468.13 ± 194.92, 335.65 ± 159.88, and 51.40 ± 36.20 mg·kg-1, respectively. The concentration of both total P and NaOH-P in the sediment of the main stem exhibited an increasing trend from the backwater area to the TGD. The average concentration of P species in the sediment was higher than those in the upland soil and the water-level-fluctuation zone (WLFZ) soil. For all the sediment and soil samples, the rank order of P species concentrations was HCl-P > OP > NaOH-P. Both IP and HCl-P were highly positively correlated with total P in the upland soil, the WLFZ soil and the sediment. However, only in the sediment, NaOH-P was positively correlated with total P and OP. All P species in the upland soil demonstrated greater spatial heterogeneity than those in the WLFZ soil and the sediment. Redundancy analysis revealed that the main variables explaining the variance in P species concentrations were Al in the upland soil and pH in the sediment.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 25:5740-5751.

Abstract
The construction of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) as well as the development of local industry and agriculture not only had tremendous impacts on the environment but also affected human health. Although water, soil, and air in the TGR have been well studied for environmental risk assessment, very little information is available on benthic sediments and microorganisms. In this study, sedimentary samples were collected along the main stream of the TGR to examine microbial phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) and relevant variables (e.g., nutrients and heavy metals) after the full operation of the TGR. The results showed that there were prominent trends (increase or decrease) of sedimentary PLFAs and properties from downstream to upstream. Bacteria-specific PLFA decreased toward the dam, while fungi-specific PLFA did not show any significant trend. The PLFA ratio of fungi to bacteria (F/B) increased along the mainstream. The total PLFA concentration, which represents the microbial biomass, decreased significantly toward the dam. Upstream and downstream sampling points were clearly distinguished by PLFA ordination in the redundancy analysis (RDA). That finding showed microbial PLFAs to have an obvious distribution pattern (increase or decrease) in the TGR. The PLFA distribution was markedly controlled by nutrients and heavy metals, but nutrients were more important. Moreover, among nutrients, Bio-P, NH4+-N, NO3--N, and DOC were more important than TP, TN, TOC, and pH in controlling PLFA distribution. For heavy metals, Tl, V, Mo, and Ni were more important than Zn, Cu, Cd, and Pb. These findings suggested that Tl, V, Mo, and Ni should not be ignored to guard against their pollution in the TGR, and we should pay attention to them and make them our first priority. This study highlighted that the construction of the TGR changed riverine environments and altered microbial communities in sediments by affecting sedimentary properties. It is a reminder that the microbial ecology of sediment as an indicator should be considered in assessing the eco-risk of the TGR.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2017; 145:119-125.

Abstract
With the completion of the Danjiangkou Dam, the impoundment and drainage of dams can significantly alter shorelines, hydrological regime, and sediment and can result in the loss of soil and original riparian vegetation. Revegetation may affect soil properties and have broad important implications both for ecological services and soil recovery. In this work, we investigated the soil properties under different restoration approaches, and before and after submergence in the water level fluctuation zone (WLFZ) of the Danjiangkou Reservoir. Soil physical (bulk density and soil moisture), chemical (pH, soil organic carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium contents), and heavy metals were determined. This study reported that restoration approaches have impacts on soil moisture, pH, N, soil organic carbon, P, K and heavy metals in the WLFZ of the Danjiangkou Reservoir. Our results indicated that different restoration approaches could increase the soil moisture while decrease soil pH. Higher soil organic carbon in propagule banks transplantation (PBT) and shrubs restoration (SR) indicate that PBT and SR may provide soil organic matter more quickly than trees restoration (TR). SR and TR could significantly improve the soil total P and available P. PBT and SR could improve the soil total K and available K. SR and TR could significantly promote Cu and Zn adsorption, and Pb and Fe release by plant. Submergence could significantly affect the soil pH, NO3--N, NH4+-N, total P and available P. Submergence could promote NO3--N and available P adsorption, and NH4+-N and total P release by soil. The soil quality index (SQI) values implied that TR and PBT greatly improved soil quality. The present study suggests that PBT and TR could be effective for soil restoration in WLFZ of the Danjiangkou Reservoir.

Abstract
Vegetation coverage is an important parameter for affecting soil erosion and the physical and chemical properties of soil. To analyze the mutual influence between vegetation coverage and soil quality at different slope aspects in a reclaimed dump, fitting analyses were built between the normalized difference vegetation index and soil physical properties at each slope aspect. Twenty six quadrats were sampled in slope-platform alternate mode. Each quadrat was 10 m × 10 m. Vegetation index and soil physical properties were measured and calculated. Through curve fitting analysis, the results showed that soil bulk density has a negative correlation with the vegetation index on shady and half shady slopes, sunny slopes, and half sunny slopes. Soil porosity has a positive correlation with the vegetation index on shady and half shady slopes, sunny slope, and half sunny slope. The soil mass water content has a concave function relationship with the vegetation index on shady and half shady slopes and has a quadratic function relationship with the vegetation index on sunny and half sunny slopes, with the parabola moving upwards. The soil gravel content has a linear relationship with the vegetation index on shady and half shady slopes, and the image has a negative slope with a quadratic function relationship to the vegetation index on sunny slope and half sunny slope, with the parabola moving downwards. Due to differences among hydrothermal conditions, the relationship between vegetation coverage and soil quality indicators at different slope aspects is different; therefore, reasonable improvement of soil quality indicators on sunny and half sunny slopes could help plants to grow. These findings feed into a reference document that sets out how vegetation and soil quality may be improved in mining areas.

Abstract
The effects of stocking both filter-feeding fish and piscivorous fish were compared to the effects of stocking only filter-feeding fish for suppressing algal blooms and improving water quality in the impoundment area of Xiaojiang River where catfish were dominant. Using only filter-feeding fish for algal suppression and water quality control was more effective in the short-term, but use of both filter-feeding fish and piscivorous fish was better in the long-term. Obvious suppression of phytoplankton biomass (PB) only occurred during the first 14 days regardless of the fish stocked. Adding fish to the enclosure clearly alters phytoplankton community structure and introducing piscivorous fish to an enclosure stocked with filter-feeding fish changed the relative densities of dominant algae species. While stocking filter-feeding fish decreased total nitrogen concentration by removing phytoplankton, it did not effectively decrease total phosphorus and Chlorophyll a concentrations. Introducing piscivorous fish to the enclosure weakened the relationship between nutrients and phytoplankton. Results indicate that stocking only filter-feeding fish to improve water quality and suppress phytoplankton in an impoundment area is insufficient and other technologies and means should be applied simultaneously.
