摘要

Increased cultural eutrophication since the 20th century, caused by phosphorus (P) enrichment, has become a major problem worldwide. In deep, stratified lakes, eutrophication-induced hypolimnetic anoxia often stimulates the release of labile P from the sediment into the water column. This positive feedback, termed internal P loading, maintains or even accelerates eutrophication. However, most studies on internal P loading have focused on recent times. Little is known about whether such positive feedbacks caused by labile P release from sediments also played a role under natural conditions with little or no human impact. We investigated a high-resolution 15,000-year sediment record of paleoproduction, anoxia, and five sedimentary P fractions from a small, deep lake, Soppensee, on the Swiss Central Plateau. We estimated long-term qualitative internal P loading by comparing the Holocene record of diatom-inferred epilimnetic total P (DI-TP) concentrations with labile P fraction (Fe-P) concentrations in sediments under changing trophic state, redox, and lake mixing regimes. Intensified P cycling from sediments into the water column (enhanced internal P loading) apparently occurred as a positive feedback to natural eutrophication with persistent bottom-water anoxia during the early to midHolocene (-9000-6000 cal BP). However, this positive feedback was not inferred for other eutrophic phases. Fe-rich layers formed during seasonal mixing of the lake in the late Holocene (-2000-200 cal BP) and magnetitetype minerals produced by magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) internal P loading during anoxic phases in the mid- to late Holocene (-6000-2000 cal BP) appeared to prevent internal P loading. MTB presence resulted in high concentrations of potentially labile Fe-P in sediments. Our study demonstrates the potential contribution of internal P loading during long-term natural eutrophication of deep stratified lakes and has wide implications for lake management and restoration. Our results highlight the importance of the coupled geochemical cycles of P and Fe in the long-term trophic state evolution of stratified, ferruginous, low-sulfate-water lakes, conditions that have been reported to serve as analogs for the Archaean Ocean.
