Abstract

Algal bloom is a typical pollution of urban lakes, which threatens drinking safety and breaks the urban landscape. It is pivotal to select a reasonable governance approach for sustainable management. A decision-making support method was studied in this paper. First, a general framework was designed to organize the rational decision-making processes. Second, quantitative calculation methods were proposed, including expert selection and opinion integration. The methods can determine the vital decision elements objectively and automatically. Third, the method was applied in Yuyuantan Lake in Beijing, China. The monitoring information and decision-making process are presented and the rank of governance alternatives is given. The comparison and discussion show that the group decision-making method is feasible and effective. It can assist the sustainable management of algal bloom.
