The main source of water pollution in Doam Lake is turbid incoming water from upland fields in the upper watershed. The large scale, elevation, and slope of this region means that it is inaccessible, and it is difficult to collect information and update data. Field survey results show that there is a difference between classification of upland fields and grasslands in the cadastral data and land-cover map. In this study, MODIS NDVI was calculated from May 2000 to September 2015 in order to improve classification accuracy of upland fields.

Survey on the phytoplankton community structure and distribution in the upstream watershed of the East River was carried out during the period from May, 2008 to April, 2009. A total composition of phytoplankton included 159 taxa, consisting of 7 orders, 56 genera, 139 species, and 40 unidenfied species. Among those, the diatoms and green algae were more frequently found during the investigation than the other taxa. Cocconeis placentula, Cymbella minuta, Diatoma vulgare, Melosira varians, Navicula cryptocephala, Scenedesmus acuminatus v. acuminatus, were among the most common. The standing crops of the phytoplankton ranged from 86 cells $mL^{-1}$ to 1,467 cells $mL^{-1}$. The dominant species were Achnanthes minutissima, Asterionella formosa, Aulacoseira ambigua, Cocconeis placentula, Coelastrum microporum, Cyclotella sp., Cymbella affinis, C. minuta, C. tumida, Diatoma vulgare, Fragilaria capucina, F. construens, F. crotonensis, Gomphonema affine, G. clevei, Melosira varians, Merismopedia elegans, Navicula cryptocephala, N. pupula, Nitzschia tryblionella, Oscillatoria anna, O. limosa, O. tenuis v. tenuis, Pediastrum duplex v. reticulatum, Phormidium tenue, Scenedesmus acuminatus v. acuminatus, S. acutus v. acutus, S. ecornis v. ecornis, S. quadricauda v. quadricauda, Spirogyra sp., Stigeoclonium sp., Synedra acus, S. ulna, and Ulothrix sp. The most dominant species was Cymbella minuta. The diversity index, evenness index, and dominance index ranged from 1.58 to 3.10, 051 to 0.95, and 0.22 to 0.74, respectively. The phytoplankton community structure of upstream stations of the survey area was influenced by the effluent of the Doam Lake.

The objective of this was to determine how the seasonal intensive rainfall influenced the water quality, and to analyze the long-term temporal trend of water chemistry and spatial heterogeneity in the upstream watershed of Southern Han River using water quality dataset from 1997 to 2007. The largest seasonal variability in most parameters occurred during the two month July and August and there were closely associated with a large spate of summer monsoon rain. Total phosphorus (TP), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and suspended solids (SS) were greater during summer than any other seasons, and had a direct correlation with precipitation (r>0.4, p<0.01, n-120). In addition, dissolved oxygen (DO) had and inverse function with precipitation (r=-0.542, p<0.01). Overall, the data of total phosphorus (TP) and suspended solids (SS) showed that water quality was worst in Site I1, compared to the others. This was due to continuous effluents from the highlands' fields and cattle farms within the upstream area of Doam lake (Song stream). Based on the overall dataset, an efficient water quality management is required in the highlands and farms areas for better water quality with precipitation (r.0.4, p<0.01, n=120).

도암호 유역 위치한 강원도 평창군 대관령면 일대는 고랭지 농업이 주로 이루어지는 곳으로 강우시 토양 유실로 인한 하천의 수질오염이 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 비점오염원은 강우시 호수와 하천으로 유입되는 특징을 가지고 있으며 불특정 발생원에서 불특정 기상조건과 경로에 의해 발생하여 지속적인 모니터링에는 어려움이 따른다. 이러한 비점오염원 중에서도 농촌지역에서 발생되는 비점오염원은 정확한 기작이 분석되지 않고 있어 수질오염에 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 본 연구는 도암호 유역 송천에서 2019년 7월부터 10월까지 6회 모니터링을 실시하였다. 이후 각 강우사상에서 비점오염물질의 유출에 미치는 강우요인(선행무강우일수, 강우지속시간, 총 강우량, 최대강우량, 평균강우량)을 분석하였다. 또한 강우유출수 분석을 통해 유량가중평균농도(EMC, Event Mean Concentration)을 산정하여 각 강우사상에서 유출된 오염원의 농도를 정량화하였으며, 초기세척비율(MFFn, Mass First Flush ratio)를 산정하여 강우초기에 유출된 오염원의 농도를 알아보았다. 분석결과 강우의 특성과 모니터링 시기별 영농단계에 의해 강우사상별 오염원의 농도와 초기세척비율의 차이를 보인 것으로 판단된다. 추후 지속적인 모니터링과 분석을 통한 강우강도에 따른 효율적인 비점오염원 저감대책과 관리 방안이 필요할 것으로 보인다.
