Implication

Randomized trial identifies carbon sources and seasonal variations in Northern China's terminal lakes, suggesting critical drivers of carbon dynamics.

Key Points

This study aims to analyze the sources and seasonal variations of different forms of carbon in the terminal lake Wuliangsu Lake.
Utilized Bayesian mixing model (MixSIAR) and carbon isotope binary mixing models to assess carbon sources.
Investigated concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and particulate organic carbon (POC) across different months.
Performed multiple regression analyses to identify key driving factors affecting carbon concentration.
DOC primarily originates from irrigation water (72%), followed by phytoplankton (15%) and terrestrial C3 plants (7%).
POC sources include phytoplankton (39%) and irrigation water (34%).
Multiple regression reveals total nitrogen and chlorophyll a as primary drivers of DOC concentration, while ammonia nitrogen is central to DIC concentration.
