Water quality and pollutant dynamics in the Three Gorges Reservoir on the Yangtze River, China = Wasserqualität und Schadstoffdynamik im Drei-Schluchten-Reservoir am Yangtze, China

This dissertation provides scientific contributions to a sustainable management of the newly created ecosystem along the TGR on the Yangtze River in China. Measurements with the in situ and online multi-sensor system MINIBAT provide detailed insights into water quality and ecosystem processes in both spatial and temporal resolution. Based on the findings about pollutant sources and transportation as well as eutrophication and algal blooms, possible mitigation measures have been derived.
