Abstract
Water quality improvement was predicted by using ecological modelling with reference to reduced load pollutants in the Busan coastal area. The results showed appreciable improvement in water quality at Suyeong Bay and Nakdong Estuary but little improvement in water quality from the central to eastern regions, except in Suyeong Bay by COD concentration. There were also similar results for T-N and T-P, because the Busan coastal area has a more open boundary than the other bays in the South Sea of Korea, resulting in a fast flow rate. The reducted COD load was less than that found in other coastal areas. Also, the reduction rate of the total load was less than that of other coastal areas in terms of water quality improvement. Applying the reduction load estimated in this study, it should be possible to improve the water quality of Suyeong Bay and Nakdong Estuary.
