Abstract

This study was carried out to verify change and relationship between the concentration of chlorophyll-a and environmental factors including weather, water quality and discharge at before & after Gangcheon and Ipoh weir construction at Namhan river, based on the weather and water quality data provided by the measuring network. We classified the period of before & after weir construction by the cluster analysis with Ward's method, and also through the correlation analysis between the concentration of chlorophyll-a and environmental factors, the influence factors related with algae occurrence(Chlorophyll-a) were analyzed. The result by cluster analysis based on data of the total 12 factors (water temperature, rainfall, daylight, pH, DO, BOD, COD, T-N, $NH_3-N$ , $NO_3-N$ , T-P, $PO_4-P$ ) from 2005 to 2015 indicated a clear classification into two periods, before(2006-2007) & after (2012-2013) weir construction. After weir construction, class of BOD at Gangcheon weir was better than before, changed from II class to Ia class, and likewise class of BOD at Ipoh weir was improved from II-III class to Ia-IIclass. Also T-P and T-N concentration also were to be improved in general after weir construction. Concentraion of Chlorophyll-a afterGangcheon and Ipoh weir construction was to be decreased. However, frequency of algae warning was increased from 9 to 15 after Ipoh weir construction due to increasing of HRT and water temperature. After weirs construction, the result of correlation analysis between weather, water quality and discharge and concentration of chlorophyll-a indicated a positive correlation, order of BOD(0.579) > COD(0.413) > temperature(0.237), and a negative correlation, order of $NO_3-N$ (-0.344) > T-N(-0.293) at Gangcheon weir. And there were likewise positive correlation, order of BOD(0.795) > pH(0.581) > Water temperature(0.422), and negative correlation, order of $NO_3-N$ (-0.457) > T-N(-0.371) > $NH_3-N$ (-0.326) > $PO_4-P$ (-0.288) > Discharge(-0.213) after Ipoh weir construction. Although water quality after Ipoh weir construction was generally improved, increase of frequency of algae warning occurrence was influenced by change of water conditions such as reduction of the velocity, increase of HRT and water temperature, etc impacted strongly by change of the stream flow more than change of water environments after weir construction.

본 연구는 기상과 수질 측정망 자료를 사용하여 남한강 내 강천보와 이포보가 건설되기 전 후 기상, 수질 농도, 유량 및 조류 예보 발생 패턴의 변화를 구명하기 위하여 수행되었다. 각 보의 건설 전 후의 구분은 Ward의 방법을 통한 군집분석으로 분석기간을 구분하였고, 또한 Chl-a(조류)와 기상, 수질 및 유량 등의 요인과의 상관분석을 통해 Chl-a(조류)의 발생량에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하였다. 2005년부터 2015년까지의 관련 자료를 기준으로 총 12개 요인(수온, 강수량, 일조시간, pH, DO, BOD, COD, T-N, $NH_3-N$ , $NO_3-N$ , T-P, $PO_4-P$ )을 군집분석한 결과, 보 건설 전의 군집은 2006-2007년이며 보 건설 후의 군집은 2012-2013년으로 2개의 군집으로 분류되었다. 보 건설 전에 비해서 보 건설 후의 강천보 BOD는 II에서 Ia 등급으로 개선되었고, 이포보 BOD는II-III에서 Ia-II등급으로 개선되었다. 또한 전반적으로 보 건설 후에 T-P와 T-N 농도도 개선된 것으로 나타났다. 강천보와 이포보에서 Chl-a(조류) 농도는 보 건설 전보다 보 건설 후에 감소하였으나, 이포보가 건설된 후에는 보 건설로 인해 체류시간, 수온 및 일조시간이 증가하여 조류 예보 발생 횟수가 보 건설 전 9회에서 보 건설 후 15회로 증가하였다. 기상, 수질 및 유량요인과 Chl-a의 상관분석 결과, 보 건설 후 강천보에서 Chl-a는 BOD(0.579) > COD(0.413) > 기온(0.237) 순으로 양의 상관 값이 크게 나타난 반면, $NO_3-N$ (-0.344) > T-N(-0.293)의 순으로 음의 상관 값이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 보 건설 후 이포보에서 Chl-a는 BOD(0.795) > pH(0.581) > 수온(0.422)의 순으로 양의 상관 값이 크게 나타난 반면, $NO_3-N$ (-0.457) > T-N(-0.371) > $NH_3-N$ (-0.326) > $PO_4-P$ (-0.288) > 유량(-0.213)의 순으로 음의 상관 값이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이포보의 수질이 전반적으로 개선되었음에도 불구하고 조류 예보가 발생한 횟수가 증가된 것은 보 건설에 따른 하천 수질환경 변화보다 보 건설로 인해 하천의 흐름이 변화하여 유속이 감소하고 체류시간과 수온이 증가된 영향이 큰 것으로 판단된다
