In this paper the development of a real time river water quality management system is described. This system can manage a river water quality fluctuation by finding out abnormal conditions quickly and exactly. The GIS based monitoring system collects various properties of river water quality through the wireless real time network. Tanchun, the first branch of the Han River was selected as the target basin of the system development. This system is composed of three parts - wireless real time field measuring system with a GPS receiver, a server computer and a GIS platform. After the first field test in Tanchun basin, the result showed the many possibilities of measuring various water quality properties in real time and storing the data and analyzing them within the GIS environment in real time in very efficient manners. It is expected that the developed system will contribute to the efficient management of a river water quality control and water quality related disaster prevention purposes.

Anyang Stream including its main branch is the biggest branch stream of Han River in Korea. The geological and geomorphological characteristics were investigated to the affected area of Anyang Stream, in which rainfall characteristic was analyzed. The water quality surveyed that the analysis of water pollution used to biotic index and biological water pollution. The rainfall pattern in this area was like to that of typical Korea, but the rate of trigger and runoff during summer season(June~August) is more higher than mean of Korea. Before 2003, a dried stream is severe status, which was due to abundant runoff, but this status are improved. After 1997, water quality of stream is recovering status such as water pollution of stream steeply decreased. Especially after 2003, this trend is more quickly improved. Although, owing to the increasing of a T-N and SS at upstream wastewater were due to bad collection of industrial factories, livestock's and mans living, the water quality worsted at upstream. Water quality in total section of main stream was severely contaminated that water-quality limit is 5 with polysaprobic by water self-purification. That of main branch was 1~3limits with ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-mesosaprobic in Anyang city area, But water quality in all area about another branch of Anyang stream except Anyang city area was almost under of 3 grades. Though trying of Anyang city for recover movement(completion of 2nd Sewage Treatment Plant and Water supply pipe system) on Anyang stream, water pollution states of upper branch in Anyang stream was not better than its of 2002 because it may be difference of control area on other cities.

The Brazos River is one of the longest rivers contained entirely in the state of Texas, flowing over 700 miles from northwest Texas to the Gulf of Mexico. Today, the Brazos River Authority and Texas Commission on Environmental Quality interest in drought protection plan, waterpower project, and allowing the appropriation of water system-wide and water right within the Brazos River Basin to meet water needs of customers like farmers and local civilians in the future. Especially, this purpose of this paper primarily intended to provide the data for the engineering guidelines and make easily geological mapping tool. In the Brazos River basin, many stream-flow gage station sites are not working, and they can not provide stream-flow data sets enough for development of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) for use in the evaluation of proposed and existing dams and other impounding structures. Integrated GIS-Spatial Interpolation (GIS-SI) tool are composed of two parts; (1) extended GIS technique (new making interface for hydrological regionalization parameters plus classical GIS mapping skills), (2) Spatial Interpolation technique using weighting factors from kriging method. They are obtained from the relationship among location and elevation of geological watershed and existing stream-flow datasets. GIS-SI technique is easily used to compute parameters which get drainage areas, mean daily/monthly/annual precipitation, and weighted values. Also, they are independent variables of multiple linear regressions for simulation at un gaged stream-flow sites. In this study, GIS-SI technique is applied to the Brazos river basin in Texas. By assuming the ungaged flow at the sites of Palo Pinto, Bryan and Needville, the simulated daily/monthly/annual time series are compared with observed time series. The simulated daily/monthly/annual time series are highly correlated with and well fitted to the observed times series.

본 연구에서는 대상 지점의 강우량자료와 유출수문곡선으로 전 기간에 대한 유출률과 특정기간을 갖는 유출률을 각각 산정하여 유출특성을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 수행하기 위해서 GIS 소프트웨어인 ArcInfo와 ArcView 등으로 대상유역의 유역도, 강우관측망도, 수위관측망도, 수계망도,티센망도 등을 생성하여 대상유역의 수계 특성을 파악하였다. 개발된 곡선식의 적정성을 판단하기위해 상 하류 간의 유출특성 등을 비교 분석하였으며, 유역 내 댐이나 저수지가 존재할 경우 이를 고려하였다. 유출률 산정결과, 이호대교(남한강 본류) 지점에서의 유출률은 방류량을 고려하지 않았을 경우 59.8%, 고려했을 경우 74.5%로 산정되었다. 흑천의 원덕교 지점에서는 67.1%, 경안천의 경안교 지점에서는 78.3%, 홍천강의 성포교와 남산교 지점은 각각 63.3%, 53.1%로 산정되었다. 따라서 개발된 수위-유량관계곡선식은 적정한 것으로 판단되며, 이에 근거하여 유출수문곡선은 양질의 수준인 것으로 평가되었다.

So far, the water management have separately been accomplished by water supply, flood control, and environmental river management. In spite of sustainable policy of water resource development, flood & drought damage, poor water accident, and deterioration of river ecosystem have continuously occurred. It means that it is difficult to improve those problems with the present systems and institutions. So, it is time to discuss to change the present water management system of administrative sense into the one classified by the watershed in order to understand problems of water resource in the regional basis. First, a integration of similar branch office in organization and a work specialization should be driven in the government. Second, it is desirable to develop the water resources according to the inherent characteristics of the watershed.

The purpose of this study was to determine changes in the growth rates and the degree of shell bioerosion exhibited by endolithic organisms of the Japanese scallop family, Patinopecten (Mizuhopecten) yessoensis, on the coast of Furugelm Island (Peter the Great Bay, northwest of East Sea = Sea of Japan) over the last three decades. The areas studied are affected by lumen (Tumangang) River run-off, which is enriched by organic matter and polluting agents. It was found that the linear growth rates of the Japanese scallops living along the coasts of Furugelm Island have decreased over the last three decades. The degree of bioerosion of scallop shells has significantly increased for the same period. These phenomena may be explained by a gradual increase in bottom sediment silting, organic enrichment and pollution of the areas being studied. It was found that the degree of scallop shell bioerosion increased with the scallop's age. At present, In each age group, the shells of the scallops sampled from the muddy sand showed greater erosion than the shells of individuals collected from the sandy substrate.

Aim of the present study was to provide presence of opisthorchiid metacercariae in cyprinid fish Leuciscus idus in Nura-Sarysu river, Kazakhstan. Infection rate of the ides by the metacercariae was 42%. The metacercariae, similar morphologically to those of the liver flukes, were found: elliptical in shape, $0.19-0.25{\times}0.15-0.22mm$, oral and ventral suckers nearly equal size, and excretory bladder O-shape with black content, occupying posterior part of the body. The metacercariae were divided into 2 groups with differences in size and thickness of cyst wall. Adult flukes were recovered from the Syrian hamsters infected with the opisthorch metacercariae and identified with morphological characters to Opisthorchis felineus and Metorchis bilis. DNA sequences of ITS1, ITS2, and cox1 supported the taxonomic assignment.

The results of geoarchaeological studies of the prehistoric cultural complexes on the Russian Far East (Primorye, or Maritime Province; the Amur River basin; and Sakhalin Island) are presented. Upper Palaeolithic sites are dated to ca. 40,000-10,500 B.P. They existed during the mild climate of the Chernoruchie interstadial (ca. 40,000-21,000 B.P.); during harsh climate at the Last Glacial Maximum, ca. 20,000-18,000 B.P., in several places on the Russian Far East (Primorye, Amur River basin, and Sakhalin); and during climatic amelioration in the Late Glacial time, ca. 16,000-10,500 B.P. The earliest Neolithic sites, represented by Osipovka and Gromatukha cultures, existed at ca. 13,000-10,000 B.P. in the environment of coniferous forests with admixture of broadleaved taxa. Since ca. 8000 B.P., Neolithic cultures appeared in all of the Russian Far East. They existed until ca. 3000 B.P., first during the Holocene Climatic Optimum, ca. 8000-5000 B.P., in the environment of coniferous-broadleaved forests, and later, at ca. 5000-3000 B.P., in the environment of birch-oak and coniferous forests.
