Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate of water quality and irrigation water use possibility of reservoirs near Saemangeum for upland and horticultural fields. Water samples were taken at 6 reservoirs for 5 months from June, 2006 to November, 2006. The water temperature, pH, EC, EC, chlorophyll - a of 6 reservoirs were ranged 8.7-$31.2^circC$, 6.9-9.2, 73.0-637.0$\mu$S/cm, 0.9-443.2mg/$m^3$, respectively. The concentration of DO, BOD, COD, T-N, T-P and SS were ranged 5.7-11.7mg/L, 0.5-8.9mg/L, 2.9-18.0mg/L, 0.07-6.52mg/L, 0.002-0.406mg/L, 0.5-54.0mg/L Also, storage ratio and storage capacity of Mije reservoir, Okgu reservoir, Oknyeo reservoir, Neungje reservoir were decreased between June and April, but those of Oksan reservoir was kept high during irrigation period. Water supply of reservoirs was 4,474,100$m^3$(Oksan), 6,165,900$m^3$(Mije), 13,209,900$m^3$(Okgu), 4,675,600$m^3$(Oknyeo), 7,682,000$m^3$(Neungje), 19,231,000$m^3$(Cheongho) in 2006, respectively. It is resevoirs for upland and horticultural fields that use main irrigation water resources before Saemanguem fresh-water lake development, and use assistance irrigation water resources in emergency after Saemanguem fresh-water lake development. In the meantime, for continuous use of reservoir as irrigation water resource for upland and horticultural fields, we must examine about surplus water capacity, and need investigation about supply possibility of irrigation water, condition of irrigation water, water quality.
