    Abstract:
    Pyrethroid insecticides are among urban parks' most widely used and harmful insecticides. The advanced prediction method is the key to studying the pollution and diffusion risk of plant conservation insecticides in parks. A two-dimensional advection-dispersion model was established for the North Lake of Cloud Mountain Park in the subhumid area of Hebei Province. The temporal and spatial distribution of lambda-cyhalothrin pollution required by plant growth in artificial lakes under different rainfall intensities and the time of water renewal after rainfall was simulated and predicted. According to the model efficiency (E: 0.98), mean absolute error (MAE: 0.016-0.064 cm), and root mean square error (RMSE: 0.014-0.041 cm), the prediction results showed that the model fits well. The results showed that the concentration of lambda-cyhalothrin in the artificial lake was positively correlated with the increase in rainfall intensity. Under the three scenarios of moderate rain, heavy rain, and rainstorm, the variation of total pollutants into the lake over time conformed to the first-order dynamic equation (R2＞0.97), and the cumulative rates were 0.013 min-1, 0.019 min-1 and 0.022 min-1, respectively. Under light rain, the accumulation rate of lambda-cyhalothrin showed a double-linear relationship, which was in accordance with the second-order kinetic equation (R2＞0.97). The rapid accumulation rate of early-stage rainfall was 0.0024 min-1, and the slow accumulation rate of late-stage rainfall was 0.0019 min-1. The human health risk assessment predicted by the simulation was lower than the hazard value (Rtgn(a-1): 9.65 E-11-1.12 E-10 a-1). However, the potential risk value to aquatic species was higher (RQ: 0.33-23.05). In addition, the increase in rainfall intensity has no significant effect on the acceleration of water renewal time. The two-dimensional dispersion model of pollutants driven by water dynamics provided relevant examples for evaluating the impact of runoff on pesticide scour in parks and supplied scientific support for improving the management of artificial lakes in urban parks.
