| 摘要： | The Trophic state index (TSI) is a vital parameter for aquatic ecosystem assessment. Estimating TSI by remote sensing is still a challenge due to the multivariate complexity of the eutrophication process. A comprehensive in situ spectral-biogeochemical dataset for 7 lakes in Northeast China was collected in October 2020. The dataset covers trophic states from oligotrophic to eutrophic, with a wide range of total phosphorus (TP, 0.07-0.2 mg L-1), Secchi disk depth (SDD, 0.1-0.78 m), and chlorophyll a (Chla, 0.11-20.41 mu g L-1). Here, we propose an empirical method to estimate TSI from remote sensing data. First, TP, SDD, and Chla were estimated by band ratio/band combination models. Then TSI was estimated using the Carlson model with a high R-2 (0.88), a low RMSE (3.87), and a low MRE (6.83%). Synergistic effects between TP, SDD, and Chla dominated the trophic state, changed the distribution of light in the water column, affected the spectral characteristics. Furthermore, the contribution of each parameter for eutrophication were different among the studied lakes from ternary plot. High Chla concentration was the main reason for eutrophication in HMT Lake with 45.4% of contribution more than the other two parameters, However, in XXK Lake, high TP concentrations were the main reason for eutrophication with 66.8% of contribution rather than Chla and SDD. Overall, the trophic state was dominated by TP, and SDD accounted for 85.6% of contribution in all sampled lakes. Additionally, we found using one-parameter index to evaluate the lake trophic state will lead to a great deviation, even with two levels of difference. Therefore, multi-parameter TSI is strongly recommended for the lake trophic state assessment. Summarily, our findings provide a theoretical and methodological basis for future large-scale estimations of lake TSI using satellite image data, help with water quality monitoring and management.
