Abstract

This study aims to investigate characteristics of water quality factors by using survey results of national marine environmental monitoring system from 2004 to 2010 at coastal area of the East Sea of Korea. In this study, we chose statistical methods to analyze the correlation among water quality parameters and principal component analysis for characteristics of each water environment. In addition to this, we evaluated each water's pollution level based on eutrophication standard of OECD, Eutrophication Index(EI), and Organic Pollution Index(OPI). Major factors were chlorophyll a and salt according to the analysis at coastal area of the East Sea. The sea was divided into the south and the central part by Jukbyeon. Also, Jukbyeon in the central part of the East Sea and Gampo in the southern sea coastal waters have been classified separately. The nutritional status of coastal area of East Sea presented Mesotrophic to Oligotrophic level and EI showed less than 1. OPI in all of the coastal area at the East Sea represented that the water quality condition was favorable.

동해연안의 수질특성 및 상태를 파악하기 위하여 2004년부터 2010년까지의 국가해양환경측정망 조사결과를 이용하여 수질인자의 거동을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 통계적 방법을 이용한 수질인자간의 상관관계 및 주성분 분석을 통하여 해역별 수질환경 특성을 파악하였으며, OECD의 부영양화 기준과 부영양도, 그리고 유기오염도 지수의 산정으로 해역별 오염상태를 평가하였다. 수질인자간의 주성분 분석에서 동해연안은 클로로필 a와 염분이 주요인자로 설명되는 2개의 요인으로 구분되었다. 해역별로는 죽변을 경계로 남부와 중부로 분류되었으며, 동해 중부 해역에서는 죽변, 그리고 남부해역에서는 감포연안이 별도로 분류되었다. 동해연안의 영양상태는 Oligotrophic~Mesotrophic 수준으로 구분되었으며, 부영양화도는 1 이하로 평가되었다. 유기오염지수는 동해연안 전 해역에서 양호한 수질상태로서 평가되었다.
