Practice of Water Ecological Restoration of Large Urban Eutrophication Lake——A case of study of Donghu Lake, Wuhan

Abstract

Submerged macrophytes are the main components of lake ecosystems, and restoration of submerged macrophyte community is an important part of restoring lake ecosystems. Taking Water Ecological Restoration Projects in Wuhan Donghu Lake as an example, Combined with the current situation of the Donghu Lake environment, the submerged phytoremediation area, the restoration species of each sub-lake and the submerged plant configuration plan were determined. The planting of submerged macrophyte adopts the process of “selecting the area - removing debris and repelling fish ecologically - improving the substrate - setting the line planting”. Since the project was implemented , the submerged macrophyte grow well, the coverage of plants reaches more than 70%, and the transparency can reach more than 120cm, which meets the design requirements basically.
