Abstract

Algal bloom is a serious problem in Kado-ike, an irrigation pond in Numazu City, Shizuoka. Therefore, it is important to understand the relationships among water quality and topographic features. In this study, we surveyed the water quality and measured the water depth at 14 sites in Kado-ike on September 19, 2015. In Kado-ike, the water color was dark green, and algal bloom was seen mainly in the area close to the outlet. The pH of the water at any point in Kado-ike was 8 or more alkaline, making it suitable for the proliferation of algae. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) and various nitrogen and phosphorus compounds in the area close to the inlet were higher than at other sites. These results show good agreement with computational fluid dynamics solutions. Kado-ike was roughly divided into two areas in the results of water depth measurements: the east area, at a depth of 3 meters, and the west area, at a depth of 4 meters. COD and ammonia nitrogen at any pond bottom were higher than those at the water surfaces, and it is thought that suspended solids accumulate.
