“…Since each application is roughly equivalent to the addition on 4.3 mg Cu kg −1 on average, the Cu T increment would translate into an average 86% Cu retention rate in the studied reservoirs. Several past studies (Haughey et al 2000;Van Hullebusch et al 2003) reported similar rates (80-83%) of Cu retention following the treatment of aquatic systems with CuSO 4 . These studies have also shown that in the days following algicide treatment, dissolved Cu was primarily associated with particulate matters which could provide a vehicle for Cu export.…”

“…Water samples collected 1 week later showed dissolved Cu concentration <0.2 μg Cu L −1 , indicating a rapid dissipation of Cu from the water column. Past studies (Haughey et al 2000;Van Hullebusch et al 2003) have also documented a rapid return (hours to a few days) of dissolved Cu to background level following treatment of water bodies with CuSO 4 .…”

The control of algal growth in water reservoirs with copper-based algicides leads to elevated sediment Cu concentration and thus could affect longterm water quality. To assess the potential mobility of sediment-associated Cu, a study was conducted using samples from three drinking water reservoirs treated with Cutrine®, a copper triethanolamine complex algicide. Total Cu (Cu T ) in treated reservoir sediment ranged from 13.3 to 139.9 mg Cu kg −1 and was on average 1.5 times the level in streams (48 mg Cu kg −1 ) flowing into the reservoirs. Sediment Cu T and algicide application history indicated the retention of 82-93% of the algicide Cu applied. Sequential extraction showed that Cu primarily accumulated in the residual fraction (60%), whereas the potentially mobile pools (water extractable: Cu H2O , exchangeable: Cu EX , organic bound) accounted for <10% of Cu T . The leachable Cu fraction (extracted with 1 M acetic acid) also amounted to <9% of Cu T and was related negatively to C/N and positively to H/C ratios of organic matter. In addition, these potentially mobile fractions were found to be related, not to total organic C, but to sediment respiration suggesting that the potentially mobile Cu fractions were primarily associated with aliphatic and readily biodegradable C (more so than total organic C). During a 2-year period without algicide treatment (that followed 4 years of repeated algicide applications to one of the studied reservoirs), mean dissolved Cu (micrograms per liter) in the reservoir (39.2) was similar to levels measured at locations upstream (43.3) and downstream (47.2) from the reservoir. These results indicate that the bulk of sediment Cu is associated with geochemically stable solid phases and thus should alleviate concerns about Cu transfer into the water column.

“…Copper sulphate, sold as pentahydrated salts, was the substance most used by growers (75.8% of treated ponds). This relatively cheap algaecide (€1.5 kg ‐1 ) is used worldwide to control algae and vascular aquatic plants in artificial and natural water bodies (Van Hullebusch et al ., ), but its effectiveness in the studied ponds may have been limited as the high pH and alkalinity of water in the area (Bonachela et al ., ; Casas et al ., ) could have decreased Cu bioavailability. At high pH the formation of copper hydroxides is favoured, and increasing alkalinity enhances the formation of Cu carbonate complexes, both of these determining a reduction of cupric ion (Cu 2+ ) concentration, the biocide agent in water (Erickson et al ., ).…”

The structural and management characterization of 101 ponds, used for greenhouse drip irrigation, was assessed on the south‐eastern coast of Spain, with the objective of proposing more sustainable management practices. Different management methods were carried out by growers with the aim of controlling pond biological activity and improving the irrigation water quality. Pond covering was highly effective in preventing submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) development but the high cost of installing and maintaining covers limit its use. Pond dredging and biocide treatments were relatively expensive and ineffective in controlling mid and long‐term SAV development. No clear criteria were observed for biocide use (products, dosage and scheduling). SAV developed spontaneously in 48.5% of uncovered ponds. Chara species, which tend to form dense meadows in the pond bottom and are highly valuable for aquatic biodiversity conservation, may improve the water quality and are unlikely to hinder agricultural pond uses. More sustainable management practices based on preserving SAV in ponds, particularly charophytes, and reducing or suppressing dredging and biocide use may be successful in accomplishing both agronomic and environmental pond functions.

“…In June 2000, Lake Courtille in Guéret (average depth = 1.77 m) was dosed with both aluminum sulfate and copper sulfate (CuSO 4 ∙5H 2 O) to control algal populations (van Hullebusch et al ). In June 2001, copper sulfate was added to the reservoir in Saint Germain les Belles (average depth = 1.6 m; van Hullebusch et al , ). Total and dissolved copper in the water column was monitored following copper addition.…”

The fate and effects of copper in the environment are governed by a complex set of environmental processes that include binding to inorganic and organic ligands in water, soil, and sediments. In natural waters, these interactions can limit copper bioavailability and result in copper transport from the water column to the sediment. In the present study, data on the fate of copper added to lakes, microcosms, and mesocosms were compiled and analyzed to determine copper removal rates from the water column. Studies on copper behavior in sediment were also reviewed to assess the potential for remobilization. A previously developed, screening‐level fate and transport model (tableau input coupled kinetic equilibrium transport–unit world model [TICKET–UWM]) was parameterized and applied to quantify copper removal rates and remobilization in a standardized lake setting. Field and modeling results were reconciled within a framework that links copper removal rates to lake depths and solids fluxes. The results of these analyses provide converging evidence that, on a large scale, copper is removed relatively quickly from natural waters. For the majority of studies examined, more than 70% of the added copper was removed from the water column within 16 d of dosing. This information may be useful in the context of environmental hazard and risk assessment of copper. Environ Toxicol Chem 2019;38:1386‒1399. © 2019 The Authors.
