Abstract:
      To elucidate the influence of farmland production, rural life, and circadian rhythm on the water quality of agricultural irrigation ditches, several sections of a typical ditch was selected for continuous sampling and monitoring at day and night during the wet season. The results showed that the concentration of TN, NO3--N, TP, and DP in the ditches along the direction of water flow was relatively stable and the concentration of NH4+-N and COD in the water reduced by 2.08%~55.56% and 23.65%~38.19% after exiting the field. Whereas, the concentration of NH4+-N and COD in the water increased after exiting the village. Nitrogen and COD were the major water pollutants in different production and inhabited units. NO3--N was the main form of N, accounting for 52.73%~79.33% of TN concentration. The concentration of TN and NO3--N in ditches is greatly affected by the work cycle and life rhythm of villagers. The diurnal variation in phosphorus concentration is generally small. Increasing the frequency of water sampling in alternate farmland and inhabited areas of Erhai Lake will help accurately understand the characteristics of water quality changes. Increasing the number of ecological ditches and strengthening the management of sewage pipelines are necessary to reduce pollution load.
