Hao, Y., Tang, D., Yu, L. et al. Nutrient and chlorophyll a anomaly in red-tide periods of 2003–2008 in Sishili Bay, China., Chin. J. Ocean. Limnol. 29, 664–673 (2011). https://doi.org/10.1007/s00343-011-0179-3
Sishili Bay is the most important aquiculture and tourism area for the city of Yantai
China; however
red tides occurred frequently and have caused huge economic losses in this bay in recent years. To gain a better understanding of the local ecological environments in the bay
we conducted this research between 2003 and 2008 to analyze variations in nutrients and chlorophyll (chl-a) during high frequency red tide period (May to September). The results show that the chl-a concentration increased from 2.70 in 2003 to 7.26 mg/m3 in 2008
while the concentration of total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) and silicate (SiO3-Si) increased lineally from 5.18 and 1.45 μmol/L in 2003 to 18.57 and 9.52 μmol/L in 2008
respectively
and the annual phosphate (PO4-P) varied between 0.15 and 0.46 μmol/L. Special attention was given to a red tide in August 2007 occurred when water temperature was high and nutrient concentrations increased sharply because of a heavy rainfall. Overall
the results show the P limitation in Sishili Bay
and reveal that red tides were caused by eutrophication from terrestrial inputs and local warm weather
particularly during rainy periods. Therefore
to control red tide
greater efforts should be made to reduce sewage discharges into Sishili Bay
particularly during rainfall seasons.
