Paper Summary

A study on a new reservoir in Shandong Province from 2014 to 2017 found that certain algae species dominated the water. The types of algae varied by season, with different species competing in summer and autumn. The reservoir's algae community changed over time, shifting from one type to another. The growth of algae was mainly influenced by nitrogen and CODMn, but the specific factors varied each year.
