    Abstract:
    Sixty topsoil composite samples (0-20 cm) have been collected in 3 258 km2 surrounding area of Chaohu Lake. The concentrations of organic material (OM), total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) were determined, and their spatial distribution characteristics were studied by geo-statistics software named GS 7.0 +, Surfer 8.0 and Mapinfo 8.5. The correlations of these 3 kinds of nutrient were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 at the same time. Results showed that the average omega (OM), omega (TN) and omega (TP) in topsoil around Chaohu Lake were 19 500 mg x kg(-1), 1 027 mg x kg(-1) and 483 mg x kg(-1). The omega (OM) and omega (TN) in topsoil in the east of Chaohu Lake were both higher than those in the west of the lake, while omega (TP) was reverse. The omega (TP) in topsoil around Hangbu-Fengle River and Baishitianhe River which located in the southwest of Chaohu Lake was higher than that in any other rivers and with the serious soil erosion. Hence, to control the TP released by nonpoint pollution, attention should be paid on these two rivers. Furthermore, the semivariogram models of omega (OM), omega (TN) and omega (TP) followed linear model and they all had a strong spatial autocorrelation, the ratios of nugget to sill were 0.015, 0.202 and 0.128, respectively. The characteristics of spatial distribution of omega (OM), omega (TN) and omega (TP) were similar. Moreover, the Pearson correlation analysis showed that omega (OM), omega (TN) and omega (TP) were significantly correlated. The omega (TN) and omega (TP) can be calculated by two recommended formulas, and the results were acceptable in daily non-pint pollution management.
