Because of melt water, the water quality in the Second Songhua River is good and changes very except that the contents of Hg and Mn in the water are higher. The contribution of melt water to the water fluxes in the Second Songhua River basin is distinct: the water flow in April increases remarkably, reaches the peak in the upper reaches. The pollutant contributions and water pollution indices (WPIs) of the Second Songhua River in April are high in the upper reaches while that in the lower reaches are low. The responses of hydro-environment system to melt water of that basin are affected by content of packed snow and the underlining surface systems.展开更多
The mercury content in 158 fishes and 28 mussels in the Second Songhua river were detected.

The range of mercury concentrations in fishes and mussels was 0.02-0.66 mg/kg and 0.002-0.056 mg/kg, respectively. The history change of mercury content in fishes was analyzed in this paper. From upstream to downstream, the average mercury concentrations in fishes increased with the increase of the distance to the headstream, then decreased in the downstream of Wujiazhan town (sampling site). The fact illuminated that the source of mercury contamination was mercury in sediment. In the different species of fishes, the mercury concentration in Parasiburus asvtus was the highest and the order of mercury distribution in fishes was: the mercury value in fishes in the river bottom >that in fishes in the surface and that in predacious fishes>that in herbivorous fishes. In the investigation, there were amount of fishes whose mercury value exceeded the criterion for that in fishes that suggested that the mercury contamination in the Second Songhua River have not completely been eliminated until now.展开更多

The results show that there is direct relation between the nitrogen content variation in river water and that in wastewater from cities and runoff water of both banks of the river. Nitrate and nitrite contents in water in flood period are higher than that in mid and low water periods. In flood period, nitrate content in water increases gradually with the extension of river section, ammonia content in polluted river section is higher than that in unpolluted river section. Nitrate and nitrite contents in water in the flood, mid and low water periods from 1985 to 1989 were slightly higher than that from 1980 to 1984 and from 1990 to 1994, ammonia content in water increased annually.展开更多
