Abstract

Seasonal changes in groundwater geochemistry exist in Ddan-sum island. In the farming season of April, the spatial distribution of ions explains that $Fe^{2+}$, Fe(total), $Mn^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $SiO_2$, ${HCO_3}^-$, and ${NO_3}^-$ are high in the center of the island, but $Na^+$ and $K^+$ are relatively low and these high anions indicates the effect of fertilizer used for strawberry cultivation. Spatial variation of ion concentration is smaller in August than April because of low agricultural activity and heavy rainfall. Geochemical type of groundwater shows that the center of island has the characteristics of recharge zone but the rim area corresponds to a mixing zone between groundwater and stream water. According to the analysis of saturation index for Fe and Mn ions, hematite, goethite, and rhodochrosite under supersaturation have a possibility of additional mineral deposition, and siderite, $Fe(OH)_3$, manganite, pyrolusite, and pyrochroite under unsaturation may exist as a type of dissolved ion.

김해 딴섬 지역 지하수는 갈수기와 홍수기의 계절에 따른 지구화학 특성의 변화를 보인다. 농번기인 4월의 이온의 공간적 분포를 보면 $Fe^{2+}$, Fe(total), $Mn^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $SiO_2$, ${HCO_3}^-$${NO_3}^-$는 딴섬의 중앙부에서 높고 $Na^+$$K^+$는 딴섬 중앙부가 낮은값을 보이는데 높은 ${HCO_3}^-$${NO_3}^-$는 딸기 재배용 비료에 의한 오염을 지시한다. 4월에 비하여 8월의 이온 농도의 지역별 편차가 적고 비료 등에 의한 인위적인 영향이 적어 강우에 의한 계절적 요인이 나타난다. 지하수의 수질 유형을 보면, 딴섬 중앙부는 함양 특성을 부분적으로 보이며 외곽부는 하천수와 상호 혼합되는 특성을 보여준다. Fe 및 Mn 이온 종에 대한 포화지수 계산결과, Fe의 광물종인 적철석, 침철석은 모두 과포화상태에 있어서 침전 가능한 상태이며, 능철석과 $Fe(OH)_3$, 일부는 불포화 상태로써 용존 이온상태로 존재할 가능성이 있다. Mn의 광물종인 능망간석은 불포화상태 및 과포화상태가 공존하며, 수망간석, 연망간석 및 수산화망 간석은 불포화상태로써 용존 이온 상태로 존재할 가능성이 크다.
