P-immobilisation and phosphatase activities in lake sediment following treatment with nitrate and iron

The influence of a further developed inlake restoration method on the P-immobilisation and microbial activities, especially under anoxic conditions was investigated. The impact of nitrate and iron dosing with a newly developed nitrate storage compound (Depox^®Fe) was tested in enclosures in the eutrophic dimictic Lake Dagowsee, Germany. Additions of 50 g m⁻² of NO₃⁻–N and 66 g m⁻² of Fe³⁺ ensured availability of nitrate at the sediment surface during a 2-months period.As a result the phosphate release from the anoxic sediments was completely suppressed even 1 year after the application. The hypolimnetic deoxygenation was unaffected by the Depox^®Fe addition. However, sulfur reduction and methanogenesis were inhibited and the phosphatase activity increased.
