The materials of this study consist of both specimens and survey records of the mollusks and crustaceans which were obtained from 30 collection sites in the Naktong Estuary during Aug.-Nov., 1991. The mollusks and crustaceans collected and identified in this study are 31 and 50 species, respectively. Of these two species of mollusks and six species of crustaceans were newly recored in this area. Including the previous records, the occurrence and distribution of 63 molluscan species and 138 crustacean species were compared in eight zones, before and after the construction of the Naktong Estuary Barrage. During this investigation, only a few species of mollusks occurred in the northern freshwaters off the Barrage. The habitats for the intertidal species were greatly destructed along the eastern part of the UIsuk Is. and the riverside of Tadaep'o where the bank was recently constructed. The commercial bivalves including Corbicula fluminea and Ruditapes Philkippinarum were greatly decreased in number in all the eatuarine waters. A freshwater crab, Eriocheir japonicus, seems to be extinguished in the Naktong River and its neighbouring streams.

In this paper, as a basic research for the restoration and construction of easuary saltmarsh, To observe the habitat environment for reed, we observed sediment environment (Particle size, water content, pH, nutrient analysis ($NH_4-N$, $PO_4-P$)), ground water level, ground level, individual numbers of reed, maximum reed height. As a result of this study, sediment particle size and moisture content of soil on the study area not effected reed habitat, pH showed no difference in each site. $NH_4-N$ and $PO_4-P$ concentration also no difference in each site. Ground level of reed habitat area is more higher than none reed habitat. However Ground water level of reed habitat area is more lower than none reed habitat. As a results of analyzing the influence factors for reed habitat in Nakdong estuary saltmarsh, ground water level and ground level is most influenced factor for reed habitat.

To investigate sedimentary facies and environmental changes of the Nakdong River Estuary and its adjacent coastal area, the grain size analysis and measurement of organic matter, calcium carbonate, clay mineral and metallic elements were carried out for forty surface sediment samples. Based on regional distribution pattern and characteristics of the surface sediments, sedimentary facies in the study area can be divided into sand facies (TYPE I), mud facies (TYPE II) and sand-mud mixed facies (TYPE III). TYPE III is the transition of TYPE I and TYPE II in every aspects of sediment characteristics. It suggests that TYPE III may have been formed by the mixture of two different source of sediment : one derived from Nakdong River and the other resuspended fine-grained sediments from the Jinhae Bay by winnowing action during floods or storms. Among many aspects of environmental change after the construction of the Nakdong Barrage, the most significant is the increase of sand content off the sand barrier region. It could be explained by several reasons including decreased input of fine-grained sediment from river, increased hydrodynamic energy level off the sand barrier region and artificial effects such as dredging and dumping.

After the completion of the Nakdong River estuary barrage, environmental characteristics and phytoplankton communities in the estuary were investigated from April to December, 1989. dissolved oxygen seems to have decreased in the just lower region of the barrage off Janglim, while ammonia and phosphate concentration increased, probably due to the waste discharge from the Janglim stream and stagnation of water after the barrage construction. Concentrations of nitrate and dissolved silicate were negatively correlated with salinity, suggesting that major source is the Nakdong River discharge. In April, there was a diatom (Asterinella sp.) bloom in the upper region of the barrage, while in July, a diatom (Skeletonema costatum) bloom in the estuary mouth. The green and blue-green algae in species composition seem to have increased after the barrage construction. The relatively high concentration of chlorophyll b in the upper region of the barrage probably result from the high density of freshwater green-algae there. Among the species occurred in the study area, many were indicative of water pollution. It seems that environmental characters and phytoplankton communities are changing after the barrage construction.

The survey of birds in Nakdong River Basin was conducted from March in 2003 to February in 2004. This study shows that the population of birds was 94,481 individuals and 114 species. The bird recorded in Daemadeung (Ⅰ) was 21,781 individuals and 55 species. It is surrounded with silt to have a better condition for a habitat and the rest place than other areas in the Nakdong River Basin. In the traits of the groups, Grebes were well established in the lower estuary(Eulsook islet), Cormorants in the main stream of the Nakdong River and around West Nakdong River (F). Swans, Shelduck and Shorebirds were using silt in the lower estuary where the depth of water is shallow, dabbling ducks were also established in West Nakdong River (F) and Yummak (C), diving ducks in the upper Nosan Watergate in West Nakdong River (F). Besides, land birds was distributed in the Yummak (C), Eulsook islet (A) and West-Nakdong River (F). Because they are connected with the artifical forest in Eulsook Islet Garbage Field and Ⅱwoong islet, it is good for the land birds and the water birds to have a habitat in this kinds of vacant lot. The Nakdong River Basin is not only an important area as the habitat and rest place for ducks and geese but also one of the areas where we can not get out of the temptation to development. To preserve effectively the natural habitat from human s intervention, it needs to keep supervising in Daejeo Watergate (E) and the upper area Noksan watergate in West Nakdong River (F) and Yummak (C).

낙동강 하굿둑(이하 하굿둑)은 1987년 부산 사하구와 강서구 사이에 건설되어 하류 지역의 바닷물 유입을 막아 부산, 울산, 경남 등에 안정적으로 생활·농업·공업 등의 분야에 용수를 공급하는 역할을 해왔다. 현재, 하굿둑의 수문은 낙동강 상류로부터 하류로 흘러내려오는 민물(담수)을 방류하기 위해서만 하굿둑 수문을 개방하고 있다. 하구는 하천의 담수와 바다의 염수가 서로 만나는 구역으로 바닷물과 염수의 밀도차에 의한 혼합으로 자연상태의 하구에서는 담수와 염수가 섞이는 기수역이 형성되며, 이러한 특성으로 하구 인근의 지역에서는 일반적인 하천 및 해양, 연안과는 분명히 구별되는 생태계가 조성된다. 하굿둑 건설이후 바닷물(해수)과 민물(담수)이 만나는 낙동강 어귀에 기수생태계가 사라지면서 바닷물이 유입될 수 있도록 하여 생태계를 복원해야 한다는 필요성이 제기되어 왔으며, 하굿둑이 지역에 기여해온 사실은 분명하나 하굿둑으로 인해 생태계 단절이 발생하고 기수생태계가 파괴되었기 때문에 이를 해결하기 위해서는 하굿둑을 개방하여 과거 기수생태계를 복원해야 한다는 목소리가 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라 정부에서는 하굿둑의 기수생태계 복원을 위해서 관계기관 합동으로 의사결정을 하고 효율적인 개방 방안을 모색하는 실무협의회를 구성하여 운영 중이고, 실무협의회 논의를 통해 5개 주요 관계기관(환경부, 국토부, 해양수산부, 부산광역시, K-water) 공동으로 "낙동강하굿둑 운영개선 및 생태복원 방안 연구용역"을 추진 중이다. 2018년 1단계 용역이 완료되었으며, 2019년부터 2단계 연구용역을 추진 중이고 하굿둑 개방의 수준별로 각종 영향을 검토한 후 대책을 마련하여 기수생태계 복원 방안을 수립하는데 그 목적이 있다. 2단계 연구용역에서는 과학적이고 합리적인 기수생태계 복원방안 마련을 위해서 실제로 해수를 유입시키는 3차례의 실증실험 및 수리모형실험 등을 추진한다. 기존 연구들에서도 수문개방에 따른 해수유입 영향에 대해 모델링을 통해서 분석했지만 이는 검증이 이루어지지 않은 결과로 이번 용역에서는 실제 해수를 유입시키고 염분의 침투 및 각종 수생태 영향을 모니터링 한 후 그 결과를 반영하여 모델링을 고도화하고 있다. 최종적으로 고도화된 모델링 결과를 기반으로 기수생태계 조성 방안별로 염분, 수질, 수생태, 침퇴적 등 각종 분야에 대한 정확한 영향을 분석하고 이에 대한 대책을 포함하여 최종적으로 바람직한 기수생태계 복원 방안을 제시할 계획이다. 기수생태계 복원 방안이 계획에만 그치지 않고 실행으로 연결시키기 위해서 필요성에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 공감대를 형성해 나아가고 있으며 지역주민, 전문가, 관계기관 등 민(民)·관(官)·학(學) 다양한 의견을 수렴하여 하구지역내 수량-수질-수생태를 종합적으로 고려하여 복원 방안을 마련 후 사회적인 합의를 추진하여 확정할 예정이며, 하구의 안정적인 관리를 위해 AI 등 4차 산업혁명기술을 적극 적용하는 스마트한 하구물관리(Smart Estuary Watershed Management)"를 활용한 "하구통합물관리" (Estuary Integrated Watershed Management) 등 과학적인 관리를 추진할 계획이다.

낙동강 하류지점인 물금은 2003년${\sim}$2005년의 대부분이 부영양화의 기준을 넘고 있다. 본 연구에서는 WASP 모형을 이용하여 낙동강 하류에서 부영양화의 주요원인이 되는 영양물질과 결과적으로 나타나는 Chl-a 농도변화를 모의하였다. Chl-a의 농도모의를 위한 주요 입력자료로서 측정된 동물성 플랑크톤의 개체수가 입력되었다. 선정된 수질조사 지점은 낙동강 본류(왜관, 고령, 적포, 남지, 하남, 낙동강 하구둑)와 지류인 금호강, 회천, 황강, 남강, 밀양강이다. 수질모의 구간은 낙동강 본류(왜관${\sim}$낙동강 하구둑)와 지류인 금호강, 회천, 황강, 남강, 밀양강을 포함한 총 72개의 구간이다. 모형의 모의시간과 출력시간은 각각 1일로 하였다. 2003년의 자료를 이용하여 추정된 수질 매개변수들의 적합성을 확인하기 위해 2004년${\sim}$2005년의 수질자료와 유량자료를 이용하여 검증하였고, 입력된 매개변수와 기상 입력자료(유량, 수온, 일사량, 일조율)의 값을 중심으로 10% 씩 상하로 변화시켰을 때의 민감도를 분석하였다. Chl-a는 민감도분석결과 Chl-a의 성장률과 동물성 플랑크톤의 섭식률에 의해 영향을 많이 받았다. 인은 Chl-a에 영향을 주었지만 질소는 거의 영향이 없었다. 기상자료의 민감도분석결과 유량, 수온, 일조율, 일사량의 순서로 민감하게 모의 되었다. WASP 모형에서 동물성 플랑크톤 개체수의 입력 유 무에 따른 수질모의결과는 동물성 플랑크톤을 입력했을 때가 더 정확히 모의되는 것으로 나타났다.

If the Nakdong River estuary is to be sustainable, land use management practices need to consider bird habitat requirements, especially given that the area serves as an important migratory bird sanctuary. In this study, bird habitats found in the Nakdong River estuary were classified into 11 different types including Phragmites australiss, mud flat, farmland, open surface in freshwater, sand bar, riparian forest, Scirpus planiculmis, waterway, construction, grasslands, and open surface in sea or brackish water. Taking into consideration the regional characteristics, habitat properties, and landscape indices, a total of 12 study sites were analyzed. Mud flat, construction, farmland, and P. australis account for 80% of the total land area. The high area ratio of construction and farmland to other types of habitat revealed a high amount of historical human activity and intervention in the area. Both patch numbers as well as patch density were high in West Nakdong River, Samrak Waterfront, Maekdo River, and Daejeo Floodgate, with these areas showing the greatest fragmentation as well. Total numbers of species and individuals had a positive correlation with the area and the number of habitat types. Findings suggest that protecting the habitat area, especially in S. planiculmis, is the most important factor for bird habitat management and that future development could result in habitat loss, having a profoundly adverse impact on bird populations. Therefore, it is important that the total area should be carefully protected by land use regulations in order to ensure that the Nakdong River estuary maintains its functional integrity as a migratory bird sanctuary.

To obtain more accurate meteorological data for analyzing the river discharge characteristics at the Nakdong River Estuary, we investigated the characteristics of the release barrage discharge observed during the 13-year period from 1996 to 2008 and calculated the differences using meteorological data for the Busan and Gimhae weather stations. The river discharge estimated using a tank model was compared to the real river barrage discharge. We discussed the correlation between the discharge and the meteorological factors that affected the estuary water environment. This study found that total annual discharge from the Nakdong river basin for the 13 years was $272,653.3{\times}10^6\;m^3$/month. The largest monthly mean release discharge occurred in July at $73,212.9{\times}10^6\;m^3$/month (26.9% for the year), followed by August and September in that order with 22.0% and 18.9%, respectively.
