습지는 해안선 안정화, 생물의 다양성 유지, 수질정화 그리고 관광, 여가활동 그리고 습한 시기에는 물을 흡수하고 건조한 시기에는 방류하는 역할을 하며 인간에 삶에 있어 다양한 역할을 하고 있다. 이처럼 습지의 기능 및 다양성을 보전하기 위해서는 습지내 유량이 유지되어야 하지만, 최근 기후변화로 인한 온도상승 및 불규칙한 강수 패턴으로 인해 습지의 유량이 유지되지 못하고 있다. 특히 산지습지의 경우 습지의 특성상 규모가 작고 고립되어있으며, 환경변화에 민감하기 때문에 물의 순환이 변화하게 되면 다른 내륙습지에 비해 쉽게 습지의 육화 및 건조화가 진행된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 천연기념물 및 수생식물 등 다양한 생물종이 서식하는 보전가치가 높은 금정산에 위치한 산지습지를 대상으로 분석을 실시하였다. 습지의 상류와 중앙 집수구역에 3개의 수위계를 설치하여 강수에 따른 수위변동 패턴을 분석하였고, 습지 하류부에는 강수계 및 온 습도계를 설치하여 습지의 실측 기상자료를 활용하여 분석을 실시하였다. 또한 물수지 방법을 기반으로 하는 유출모형인 SWAT모형을 활용하여 습지의 유출특성을 분석하고 습지의 유량 변동을 파악하였다. 본 연구에서 분석한 결과를 토대로 향후 금정산 산지습지의 보전을 위한 유지관리 방안을 제안하고자 한다.

Statistical and probabilistic method was used in the analysis of data, which is the most effective one in describing the various natures, and the methodology relating the results with the design was developed. Influents and effluents of three treatment plants were analyzed and the focus was made on BOD, COD, SS, IN, TP The fluctuations of influent such as BOD, COD, SS were extremely large and their standard deviations(st.dev) were more than 10 mg/L. but those of TN, TP were small; the st.dev was 6.6 mg/L for TN, 0.6 mg/L for TP, respectively. But, effluent concentration showed consistent pattern regardless of the influent fluctuations, the st.dev was ranged between 0.28 and 4.48 mg/L. Effluent distributional characteristics were as follows; BOD, COD were distributed normally, but SS, TN, and TP, log-normally; unsymmetric and skewed to the right. The coefficient of reliability(COR) based on the results of statistics of data was introduced to evaluate the process performance an4 to reflect the process performance to the process design. The coefficient of reliability relates the design value(the goal) with the standards and it can be used in operating treatment facilities under a certain reliability level and/or in evaluating the reliability of the treatment facilities on operation. Each treated water quality of effluent showed the half of water quality standards in the level of 50% percentile and all treatment plant was achieved 100% probability of water quality standards. It was concluded that the variability of the process performance should be reflected to the design procedure and the standards through the analysis based on the statistics and the probability.

Temporal and spatial variations of water quality were investigated in the Cheonsu Bay of Yellow Sea, Korea from 2010 to 2011. Water samples were collected at 16 stations and physicochemical parameters were analyzed including water temperature, salinity, suspended solids (SS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), dissolved oxygen (DO), Chlorophyll a and nutrients. Spatial distribution patterns of all survey items were not clear among stations but the bimonthly variations were distinct except the bottom water of the suspended solids. The trend analysis by principal component analysis (PCA) during 2 years revealed the significant variations in water quality in the study area. Spatial water qualities were discriminated into 3 clusters by PCA; station cluster in the surface water 1, 2~11, and 12~16, the bottom water 1, 2~7, and 8~16. Annual bimonthly water qualities were clearly discriminated into 3 clusters by PCA. But tend of cluster in the surface and bottom water was difference, period most of the research was low in nutrient. Ecology-based water quality criteria was a good level of grade II. Bimonthly results are shown as III grade(normal) at June and August, II grade(good) at October and December and I grade for February and April. Water quality was showed by the input of fresh water same as those of Kyoungin coastal area, Asan coastal area, Gunsan coastal and Mokpo coastal area in the Cheonsu.

The status and changes of water quality of national fishing harbors and designated ports in East Coast of Korea were analyzed to support establishment effective water environmental management. COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) concentration was satisfied to designated water quality criteria in most areas, but TN (Total Nitrogen) and TP (Total Phosphorus) exceeded the criteria frequently. Also, peak concentration was summer in COD and SS (Suspended Solid), but winter in TP. Eutrophication index of Ganggu and Pohang (old) area were the highest. Pollution index by function of COD, TN, and TP of Ganggu, Pohang, Jumunjin, and Guryongpo was high with gradual increasing recently, on the contrary, that of Samcheok, Imwon, and Chuksan was decreased. Pollution index involving multi-indictors relation to organics and inorganics was necessary for water quality assessment. Designated water quality criteria needed to be improved because the criteria of Jukbyun and Chuksan was applied more strictly compared to the other regions although without difference of environmental characteristics. Furthermore, the criteria notified lately needed to be related to management pollutants from land-based sources. The continuous diagnosis and monitoring on sediment quality within the study area were necessary for prevention of water pollution and eco-friendly disposal of dredged sediment. Especially, monitoring of Designated Ports was implemented partially, however monitoring ratio of National Fishing Har-bors was 7% to whole part. Therefore, systematic and integrated environmental monitoring for ports and harbors with charge of national management was reestablished by strengthening and securing a legal basis.

BACKGROUND: Water quality of rural areas are susceptible to agricultural nutrient input and supply such as chemical fertilizer and livestock manure. This study was conducted to evaluate the usefulness of nutrient (N and P) indices in understanding spatial variations of water quality across Chonnam province which is a typical agricultural region in Korea. METHODS AND RESULTS: The nutrient indices including chemical fertilizer supply, livestock manure production, and nutrient balance were correlated with water quality data (T-N, T-P, BOD, and COD) for the twenty-two districts of the province. Concentration of T-N were positively correlated with chemical fertilizer supply, livestock manure N production, and nutrient balance (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Meanwhile, T-P concentration was not correlated with these nutrient indices; however, there was a tendency that T-P concentration increases with livestock manure P production (P=0.06) and with nutrient balance (P=0.09). These results suggest that T-N concentration is susceptible to both chemical fertilizer and livestock manure; whereas T-P is likely to be affected by livestock manure rather than chemical fertilizer. The concentrations of BOD and COD were also positively (P<0.05 or P<0.01) correlated with livestock manure production. CONCLUSION: This study shows the usefulness of nutrient indices in understanding spatial variations of water quality and suggests that livestock manure rather than chemical fertilizer can be a more critical water pollution source and thus highlights the need for more attention to livestock manure treatments for rural water quality management.

효과적인 저수지 수질관리를 위해서는 신뢰도 높은 수리 및 수질모델이 필요하며, 이러한 모델의 성능은 다양한 수문사상에 대하여 적용함으로써 검증할 수 있다. CE-QUAL-W2 모델(이후 W2)은 횡방향 평균 2차원 수리 수질 해석 모델로써 수체의 길이에 비해 폭이 상대적으로 좁고 수심이 깊은 우리나라 대부분의 저수지 지형에 적합한 모델이다. 본 연구의 목적은 기존 연구에서 가뭄년인 2001년과 평수년인 2004년 수문사상에 대하여 보정한 대청호 W2 부영양화모델을 최근 평수년인 2006년과 가뭄년인 2008년을 대상으로 검증하는데 있다. 모델의 검증은 물수지, 수온성층 구조 변화, 부영양화 해석에 중점을 두었으며, 실측자료와 모의결과의 적합성 비교 평가는 결정계수값$(R^2)$, AME(absolute mean error)와 RMSE(root mean square error)를 이용하였다. 저수지 물수지의 적합성을 검증하기 위하여 모의수위와 실측수위를 비교한 결과, $R^2$값이 2006년과 2008년에 각각 0.9945, 0.9972로 나타나 신뢰도가 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 계절별 성층구조 변화 모의 성능을 검증하기 위해 회남수역과 댐 앞 지점에서 수심별 수온의 모의값과 실측값을 비교하였다. 2006년의 경우 모델은 홍수기 동안 안정적으로 수온 성층현상을 모의하였으나, 댐 앞 지점에서 수온 약층이 형성된 구간에서 실측값과 다소 편차를 보였으며, 오차크기는 AME가 $0.561\sim2.088^{\circ}C$, RMSE는 $0.797\sim2.762^{\circ}C$범위였다. 반면, 가뭄년인 2008년에는 전 기간에 걸쳐 모두 안정적으로 저수지 수온 성층현상을 모의하였으며, 오차크기는 AME $0.413\sim1.162^{\circ}C$, RMSE $0.546\sim1.415^{\circ}C$ 범위였다. 조류의 생산성이 높은 표층에서 T-N, T-P 및 Chl-a 농도 모의결과를 장계교, 대정리, 회남대교, 댐 앞, 추동취수탑 및 문의취수탑에서 시계열로 실측값과 비교 검증한 결과, T-N과 T-P는 2006년과 2008년 모두 모든 비교 지점에서 모의값과 실측값의 시계열 변동이 매우 잘 일치하였으며, 홍수기 이외 기간에는 큰 변동 폭을 보이지 않았다. 그러나 기존 연구에서 확인된 바와 같이 7월 이후부터 T-P 모의값이 실측값을 과대 산정하는 경향을 보였는데, 그 원인은 산소 결핍상태에서 저니층에서 용출되는 철(Fe) 또는 망간(Mn)과 같은 이온 성분이 인과 흡착하여 침전되는 기작이 모의과정에 적절히 반영되지 않은 것이 원인으로 판단된다. 조류(Chl-a)농도의 경우, 2006년과 2008년에 모든 지점에서 모델은 조류의 발생과 시계열 변화를 적절히 모의하였으나, 2008년 1월부터 8월까지 댐 앞과 추동 및 문의취수탑에서는 모의값이 실측값을 과대 산정하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 해마다 그리고 계절별로 우점하는 조류 종이 상이한 반면, 모델에서는 이에 대한 매개변수를 적절히 고려하지 못한 것이 원인으로 판단된다.

To understand characteristics of the water quality on the coastal boundary on tidal flat, field observations between 2008 and 2009 were undertaken twice a month at five coastal areas (Muan bay, Tando bay, Hampyeong bay, Shinan Jido and Yeongkwang coastal areas). Yearly water temperature difference was large with the range between $1.3^{\circ}C$ and $31.1^{\circ}C$. Salinity was about 32 but was the lower less than 20 for the heavy rainfall season. DO was high in winter and low in summer according to the variation of water temperature. pH represented the variation similar to DO. Suspended solid was averagely high over 100 mg/l in Yeongkwang coastal area, especially. COD did not revealed large variation with the value of about 1 mg/l. DIN and DIP concentration were high when freshwater was highly input in summer. DIN concentration was low for winter and early spring but DIP concentration did not show the seasonal variation with the continuous increase from July 2009 to December 2009. Chlorophyll a appeared high for spring with approximately $10\;{\mu}g/l$ and was higher for summer in Yeongkwang coastal area than other sites. The results of principal component analysis conducted to compare the characteristics of water quality observed in study areas showed the distinguishable features as follows. The freshwater input fluctuation appeared as the first factor in Muan and Tando bays, and the change of water temperature was the first factor in Shinan Jido and Yeongkwang coastal areas. The influence mixed with the variation of freshwater outflow and the change of water temperature in Hampyeong bay was to be the first factor.

To evaluate the pollutant removal efficiency and clarify the cause of low removal efficiency of the wetland, temporal and spacial distributions of water quality were investigated at 16 sites in the Sihwa constructed wetland. The removal efficiency showed a tendency to decrease since the construction of the wetland, except for TN. In addition, the efficiency was largely varied with season, especially BOD and TP. No removal efficiency of BOD was observed in April and July when algal bloom was occurred in lower part open water of the wetland. On the other hand, TP showed no removal efficiency from April to August showing -291% of removal efficiency in August. From the horizontal distribution in closed water regions, SS concentration for the central area was significantly higher than for left and right areas(p = 0.013, center > left > right areas). From the results of this study, we infer that anaerobic condition due to the excessive accumulation of organic matters and lack of uniformity of water flow distribution are major factors of the low removal efficiency of the wetland.

This study has examined the water quality environment of six areas in the mid-southern coastal waters of Korea in order to find the significance between water quality and algal blooms of the area, based on the last 17 years of data offered by the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute. Water temperature in these areas fluctuated with a three to five year of period, and revealed little yearly variations at the surface layer while slowly decreasing at the bottom layer. On the other hand, salinity tended to increase both the surface and bottom layers. Algal blooms had a tendency to decrease in their outbreaks and causative species, with a peak of the middle of 1990s. C. polykrikoides prevailed in the entire areas, and in particular, almost annually appeared in Goheung coastal area since 1995. C. polykrikoides blooms occurred when a mean water temperature was approximately $26^{\circ}C$, and salinities were between 31.00 and 31.50 but exceptionally 28.68 in Yeosu Coast. However, the concentrations of DIN, DIP, TN, TP, including DO, turned out not to be such significant factors for the outbreaks of C. polykrikoides blooms. Therefore, water temperature was judged as the most controlling factor for the outbreak of C. polykrikoides blooms.
