英文摘要 | The Wadi El-Rayan is a depression in the Fayoum oasis collecting agricultural drainage water from the Fayoum. Since 1973, this drainage water formed two man-made lakes. Twenty years ago, a third lake, called Lake Magic was formed. Since this newly formed lake was not yet studied, in January of 2019 we conducted research related to its physico-chemical (ion composition, nutrients, heavy metals, etc.) and biological (phyto-, bacterio- and zooplankton) characteristics. The depth of the lake ranged from 1.5 to 9.0 m, water transparency was up to 4.0 m, and the water temperature was 13.6 degrees C. The average salinity was 29.1 g/l, and the salinity of drainage waters from agricultural fields was 2.9 g/l. A total of 28 phytoplankton species was identified belonging to Bacillariophyceae (eight species), Dinophyceae (three species), Cyanobacteria (seven species), Chlorophyceae (nine species) and Conjugatophyceae (one species). Chlorophyllacontent varied from 14.3 to 24.2 mu g/l. In zooplankton, there were three species of Ciliophora, five of Rotifera, and two Copepoda as well as Nematoda and Cirripedia larvae. Salinity in Lake Magic was much higher than in drainage waters coming in the lake. This is a result of a strong salinity increase in Lake Magic after its creation due to climate aridity, and salinity may markedly increase during the next 20 years along with the sharp changes of the lake's ecosystem. |
