해조류중 특히 방사무늬 김 (Porphyra yezoensis)의 양식기술은 인공채묘기술이 개발된 이래 양식 및 가공분야의 많은 기술적 진보를 거듭해 오고있으며 양식장은 천해 해역으로 하천수의 유입으로 인한 풍부한 영양염류의 공급을 받고있는 지역에 있다. 이러한 영양염류는 김의 생장촉진에 도움을 주는 반면에 여러 가지 미생물, 미세조류, 부착조류 등의 증식도 함께 촉진하여 결과적으로 김 성장에 대한 영양분의 경쟁관계, 질병유발 김 양식의 생산력 저하등의 문제점들을 동시에 유발하고 있다. (중략)

Nutrients and trace metals of copper and nickel were investigated in the inner part of Deukryang Bay (southern coast of Korea) during 1980-81. This region is characterized as permanently well-mixed coastal waters. Because of this hydrographic condition, nutrients and trace metals showed interesting features in their seasonal cycles. The concentrations of dissolved nutrients and dissolved trace metals were higher in fall and winter than in spring and summer, while the concentrations of suspended particulates and particulate trace metals were much higher in winter than the rest of the year. Seasonal changes of nutrients suggest that the addition of nutrients via freshwater runoff during the late summer enhanced phytoplankton growth and subsequently caused phytoplankton blooms in winter. Depletion of nitrate seems to terminate phytoplankton bloom in this region, and copper and nickel appeared to be controlled by the in situ primary production.

생물권보전지역으로 지정된 점봉산의 온대낙엽수림(참나무 성숙림)에서 임상초본식물의 공간분포를 정량화하고, 이들의 공간분포에 미치는 미소환경요인의 영향을 파악하였다. 대부분의 임상초본식물들은 영구 방형구내 미소지소간에 큰 변이를 나타내었다. 초봄에 출현하는 임상초본식물중 공간의존도가 높은 식물은 현호색, 애기나리 및 노랑제비꽃이었고, 가을에 출현하는 임상초본식물중 공간의존도가 높은 식물은 벌깨덩굴, 쌀새 및 도라지모시대이었다. 초봄에 출현하는 홀아비바람꽃과 얼레지 그리고 가을에 출현하는 도라지모시대와 쌀새의 공간의존거리가 상대적으로 짧은 편이었다. 초봄에 출현하는 노랑제비꽃, 애기나리 및 얼레지는 관목이 적고, 낙엽층이 얇으며,토심이 깊고, 토양수분함량, 유기물함량 및 염기성양이온함량이 상대적으로 적은 생육지를 선호하였고, 애기앉은부채 와 현호색은 관목이 밀집하고, 낙엽층이 두꺼우며, 토심이 얇고, 유기물함량, 토양수분함량 및 영양염류함량이 높은 생육지를 선호하였다. 오리방풀은 빛조건이 좋고, 낙엽층이 두꺼우며, 토양수분함량과 영양염류가 풍부한 생육지를 선호하였고, 단풍취, 대사초, 개별꽃, 참취, 쌀새 및 도라지모시대는 토심이 깊고, 낙엽층이 얇으며, 토양수분함량과 영양염류함량이 상대적으로 적은 생육지를 선호하였다. 본 참나무 성숙림에서 토양수분함량, 유기물함량 및 영양염류함량은 바람, 미소지형 및 관목의 밀집정도에 의해 공간적으로 재배치되는 낙엽층 두께에 의해 영향을 받고 있기 때문에 초봄과 가을에 관찰되는 임상초본식물의 공간분포는 낙엽층의 불균등한 분포에 의해 가장 큰 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 추정되었다.

More than 1000 natural and constructed wetlands have been used to improve water quality. The general results showed that the highest removal efficiency was 84% for BOD and the lowest one was 48% for total nitrogen concentration. In addition, total phosphous removal efficiency was 67%, and the removal efficiencies are related to inflow loading. Researches donducted in Korea have focused on input-output mass balance and uptake by aquatic plant. As such little information if available about complex processes regulating water quality and role of microbes. Therefore, to determine the optimal design for construct, and methods to operate constructed wetland, researches about complex mechanisms of contaminant removal and interdisciplinary researches are necessary.

Mass loss and changes of mineral nutrient during the decomposition of Typha angustata for 13 months from November in 1998 to December in 1999, were investigated in small watercourse in Boryeong, Chungnam Province, Korea. After 13 months, remaining mass of leaves, stems and rhizomes was 34.7%, 59.2%, 7.2%, respectively. The rate of weight loss of the rhizomes was significantly higher than those of the leaves and stems. The decay rate of leaves, stems and rhizomes was 1.06, 0.52, $2.63 yr^{-1}$, respectively Initial concentration of nutrients in leaves, stems and rhizomes was 11.5, 9.0, 14.5 mg/g for N, 0.30, 0.27, 0.47 mg/g for P, 20.7, 26.9, 26.6 mg/g for K, 14.50, 4.77, 3.25 mg/g for Ca, and 1.99, 1.32, 2.07 mg/g for Mg, respectively. Except for Ca, concentrations of nutrients in rhizomes were higher than those in stems and rhizomes. There was no immobilization period during the decomposition of each organ of T. angustata. In case of K, most are lost during the first 1 month. Phosphorus in decomposing leaves and stems lost 58% and 66%, respectively, of the initial P capital within 1 month.

A mathematical model was developed to predict the concentrations of various nutrients in supernatants during aerobic digestion which is suitable to be employed in small wastewater treatment plants with such advantages as low capital cost and stable process. Significant reactions were determined with observing the behavior of nitrgen and phosphorus, and the model equations were built up in the form of simultaneous differential equations considering Mass Balance. Laboratory batch experiments were carried out at $20^{\circ}C$ and pH $7.5{\pm}0.5$ on the aerobic digestion of waste activated sludge at different solid levels. Nonlinear regression analysis was performed to estimate various reaction rate constants. The developed model can predict the behavior of Biomass N, dissolved organic N, $NH_4{^-}$-N, $NO_x{^-}$-N, and Biomass P, dissolved organic P, $PO_4{^-}$-P in aerobic digestion process. In this study, the results of simulation showed that dissolved nutrients had more effects on supernatants than nutrients in biomass, and phosphorus was more effective on supernatants than nitrogen.

Wetlands can transform or remove pollutants from water body, such as nitrogen, phosphate, and organics. Many researches were conducted in relation to uptake process by aquatic plants in wetlands. However, water purification processes in wetlands are the results of physical, chemical and biological, especially microbiological reactions. As such, understanding on microbial processes is of great importance. In this study, we used pondor marsh-type wetland microcosms for investigating the water purification capacity and microbial functions, namely, extracellular enzyme activities, nitrification and denitrification. In a pond system, removal efficiencies of $NO_3{^-}$ and $PO{_4}^{3-}$ were 96% and 100 % respectively, while those in a marsh system were 94%, 100% respectively. These high removal efficiencies appeared to be caused by high adsorption ability to soils and microbial functions in wetland.

Conventional physicochemical technologies for algae growth inhibition have economical and environmental pollution problems. This study attempted to overcome the problems by nature-friendly biological inhibition technology using fibrous carrier. The experimental results showed that the most effective carrier material, polyester, exhibited the highest biofilm thickness. The removal efficiency for nutrient salts, such as nitrogen and phosphorous, and algae growth inhibition of polyester carrier was 14.59%, 6.36%, and 77%, respectively, which is higher than for control group. These result indicate that the polyester carrier is available in eutrophic lake.

The efficiency of wastewater treatment using microalgae was investigated in this study, focusing on nutrients and flocculation. In the experiments for reducing nutrients by incubation of microalgae, the total phosphorus and total nitrogen were removed over 92 % and 99 %, respectively. The higher flocculation rates as the average values 94% of Poly Aluminum Chloride(PAC) and 92 % of $FeCl_3$ were presented for the flocculation experiments under the conditions of Auto-flocculation and various additives. Also, the optimal(minimal) concentrations for over 90 % of flocculation were 30 mg/L and 40 mg/L for PAC and $FeCl_3$, respectively.

In order to elucidate temporal variations of temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), suspended particulate matter (SPM), dissolved inorganic nutrients, and chlorophyll a, we performed 25-hour continuous monitoring in the Seomjin River Estuary in March (dry season) and July (rainy season) 2006. We also investigated spatial variations of marine environmental parameters across a saline gradient. In the Seomjin River Estuary, continuous monitoring results revealed that salinity variations were mainly affected by tidal cycle in the dry season and by river discharge in the rainy season. In the dry season, the spatio-temporal distribution of dissolved inorganic nutrient (nitrate, nitrite, and silicate) concentrations showed a good correlation with tidal cycle. While nutrient concentrations in rainy season showed not much variance in time. There were 6 and 4 times higher dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in the rainy season than those in the dry season, respectively. Silicate concentration was 43 times higher in the rainy season than that in the dry season. Chlorophyll a concentration was higher in the dry season than that in the rainy season showing high nutrient concentrations. The results of this study, spatio-temporal variations of marine environmental factors are determined by both tidal cycle and river discharge. It seems that chlorophyll a concentration is related to the river discharge than dissolved inorganic nutrient distribution.
