Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of water quality monitoring and water body management, and specifically relates to a method for formulating a regional nutrient salt benchmark for lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content. Background Art

[0002] There are currently many methods for establishing nutrient benchmarks for lakes and reservoirs, usually statistical analysis, model inference, and pressure-response model methods. Among them, the pressure-response model method infers the nutrient benchmark by constructing the relationship between the pressure variable and the response variable. This method has strong applicability when dealing with lakes and reservoirs that are severely affected by human activities. It can construct a suitable mathematical model to describe the relationship between the pressure variable and the response variable based on the actual conditions such as the characteristics of the study area. Therefore, the pressure-response model method is of great significance in formulating nutrient benchmarks for the special water environment of lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content.

[0003] In the pressure-response model method, commonly used mathematical models include linear regression models and Bayesian hierarchical regression models. The linear regression model is mainly used to reveal the linear relationship between the pressure variable and the response variable, while the Bayesian hierarchical regression model can explore possible nonlinear relationships. However, in lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content, due to the particularity of the water environment, the relationship between the pressure variable and the response variable often presents complex nonlinear characteristics, which limits the application of the above two classic models. In addition, the traditional pressure-response model method usually calculates the baseline values ​​of total nitrogen and total phosphorus separately, but ignores the joint effect between different pressure variables. At the same time, previous methods mostly use the mean as the evaluation standard for water quality compliance, and this processing method cannot effectively avoid the impact of extreme values ​​on the results. Therefore, it is urgent to adopt a method that can handle nonlinear nutrient data and use quantiles as water quality evaluation standards to construct a joint nutrient benchmark suitable for lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content. Summary of the invention

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a method for formulating regional nutrient salt benchmarks for lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content. This method formulates quantile evaluation standards for the special water environment of lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content, and can jointly establish nutrient salt benchmarks, which can provide strong technical support for water quality evaluation and ecological management of lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

For specific lakes and reservoirs, based on the average total suspended particle concentration of the lakes and reservoirs, provide specific target indicator compliance values ​​and a combined nutrient benchmark of total nitrogen and total phosphorus under regression quantile conditions;

[0017] The specific process of step S4 is:

[0018] S41, calculating the average total suspended particle concentration of lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content according to the target indicator standard value and regression quantile finally determined in step S2;

[0019] S42. Using the trained quantile regression neural network model, the total nitrogen and total phosphorus values ​​of a specific lake reservoir are found under given target index attainment values ​​and regression quantiles through an iterative search method;

[0020] S43. Generate contour maps of total nitrogen and total phosphorus concentration values ​​to obtain a joint nutrient benchmark of total nitrogen and total phosphorus, which is used to visually display the areas where target indicators reach target values ​​at different total nitrogen and total phosphorus levels in specific high sediment content lakes and reservoirs.

[0021] Preferably, the target indicator includes chlorophyll a concentration; in step S2, the target indicator reaching the standard value is a chlorophyll a concentration equal to 0.010 mg / L, and the regression quantile is 90%.

[0040] After adopting the above technical scheme, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the regional nutrient salt benchmark formulation method of the present invention is oriented to lakes and reservoirs with high sediment content, and outputs the target index and its quantile estimation value by constructing a quantile regression neural network model, and uses the quantile target value as the water quality compliance evaluation standard, thereby avoiding the extreme value problem of using the mean target value as the water quality compliance evaluation standard. At the same time, as a neural network model, the quantile regression neural network performs better than the traditional machine learning model when processing complex nonlinear high-dimensional water quality data. When inferring the nutrient salt benchmark for a specific lake and reservoir with high sediment content, a set of total nitrogen and total phosphorus concentrations that meet specific conditions are generated, and a joint nutrient salt benchmark for a specific lake and reservoir can be established, thereby fully considering the joint relationship between total nitrogen and total phosphorus. Therefore, the present invention not only provides a more scientific water quality compliance evaluation standard, but also formulates a more targeted and accurate joint nutrient salt benchmark, providing effective support for lake and reservoir water environment management, and has significant advantages and application value.
