title: [Diffusion flux of partial pressure of dissolved carbon dioxide in Wan'an reservoir in spring].
abstract: In order to understand the emission of greenhouse gases (CO2) from the river-type reservoir, this study investigated the partial pressure of CO2 [p(CO2)], in the surface water, inflow waters, outflow waters of the Wan'an reservoir in China in the May 2009. p(CO2) in the inflow water, outflow water were calculated from titration method, and the surface water p(CO2) was measured underway using a continuous measurement system (equilibrator-NDIR system). Results showed that the inflow water from the Zhangshui, Meijiang, Taojiang have higher p(CO2) than atmosphere level, with the values of 211.5, 91.7, 259.7 Pa respectively. p(CO2) in the surface water of the incoming section of Wan'an reservoir was between 180-210 Pa, and in the middle section and central section near the dam, p(CO2) in the surface water were about 140-180 Pa and 70-110 Pa. In the outflow waters, p(CO2) reached to 176.2 Pa, higher than that in central section. As a result, it can be concluded that the surface water, inflow waters, outflow waters in the Wan'an reservoir are all the source to CO2. However there is clear evidence showing that the reservoir indeed has a role in mitigating the CO2 emission in this case.
