초록

낙동강 중류 지점에서 (왜관, 낙동강 하구언으로부터 175 km 상류 지점) 1998년 1월부터 2002년 12월까지 동물플랑크톤 군집 동태 및 환경요인 들과의 상관관계에 대해서 조사하였다. 조사지점에서의 동물플랑크톤의 계절별 변화와 연간 변화는 매우 뚜렷하였으며(ANOVA, p<0.01), 1998년과 2002년을 제외하고는 1999년부터 2001년까지 3년 동안 유사한 동물플랑크톤 양상을 나타내었다. 조사기간 동안 연 평균 윤충류의 개체수는 43${\pm}76 ind. $L^{-1}$ (평균${\pm}$ s.d., n = 118)이며, 요각류 (1.6${\pm}$4.8 ind. $L^{-1}$)와 지각류 (0.4${\pm}$1.2 ind. $L^{-1}$) 순으로 나타났다. 윤충류 군집내에서는 Brachionus spp. Polyarthra spp., Colurella spp., Keratella spp.와 Trichocerca spp. 등이 우점하였다. 이러한 종들은 전체 총 윤충류의 개체수에 대한 상대 풍부도의 80% 이상을 차지하였다. 조사지점 내 총 동물플랑크톤 개체수는 봄과 가을에 급격히 증가 하였으며, 겨울 동안에는 낮은 개체수를 유지하였다. 여름기간 동안, 동물플랑크톤 동태는 수문학적 요인에 의해 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 파악된다. 조사구획 내 동물플랑크톤의 동태는 내적요인 (동물플랑크톤의 먹이상태, 예: 식물플랑크톤 생체량) 보다는 외적 요인 (강의 수문학적 요인)들에 의해서 보다 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 사료된다.

The dynamics of zooplankton community and its relationship with environments were studied at the middle stretch (Waekwan, RK; river kilometer; above 175 km from the estuary dam) of large regulated river, Nakdong River from 1998 to 2002. There were distinct inter-annual variations and seasonal changes in total zooplankton abundance in the study site (ANOVA, p<0.01), displaying similar pattern in three years from 1999 to 2001 except 1998 and 2002. The annual average rotifers abundance during the study period was 43${\pm}76 ind. $L^{-1}$ (mean${\pm}$s.d., n = 118), followed by adult copepodids (1.6${\pm}$4.8 ind. $L^{-1}$), and small cladocerans (0.4${\pm}$1.2 ind. $L^{-1}$). Among the rotifers, Brachionus spp. Polyarthra spp., Colurella spp., Keratella spp.·, and Trichocerca spp. were the most common taxa. These species occupied more than 80% of the total rotifer abundance throughout the study period. Total zooplankton abundance rapidly increased in spring and fall and remained low throughout the winter. During summer, zooplankton dynamics seemed to be largely affected by hydrological parameters. Overall, rather the external factors (hydrological factors of the river) than internal factors (food condition for zooplankton such as phytoplankton biomass) appear to be responsible for changes in zooplankton dynamics in the middle stretch of the river.
