Environmental Changes of the Rivers in Taegu Area after a Heavy Rain

The change of environmental factors with flow rates were studied quantitatively for two rivers, the Nakdong River and the Sin stream, which have different basins in ecosystem structures, during short period after a heavy rain. In the Nakdong River, transparency, DO, alkalinity and hardness were negatively correlated with the flow rate by logarithmic function, but the concentration of SiO2 was relatively constant regardless of the flow chage. In the Sin stream, transparency, alkalinity, hardness and the concentration of NH3-N, NO2-N and SO4= showed negative correlation with the flow rate by logarithmic function. The ratios of maximum to minimum values for aquatic environmental factors during the samller than that for flow rate in the respective rivers (28 in the Nakdong R.; 50 in the Sin S.). Immediately after the heavy rain, the concentrations of NO2-N, NH3-N and PO4-P in the Sin stream were 8, 6 and 1 times as high as those in the Nakdong River, respectively, but in the stable flow state, those became 94, 25 and more than 10 times, respectively. The load for most of the dissolved environmental constituents changed similarly to the flow rate in both rivers. It is notable that, at the stable flow state, the loads for NH3-N (59g/sec) and NO2-N (3.3g/sec) in the Sin stream were 4.3 and 1.3 times as high as those in the Nakdong River.
