본 논문에서는 대구광역시의 신천을 대상으로 거대홍수가 도시하천의 하천생태계에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 신천의 경우 외곽의 인공제방이 튼튼하여 거대홍수에도 범람하지 않았으므로, 거대홍수의 영향은 인공제방 내에서만 발생하였다. 신천의 하도 주변을 수변공원화 하기 위하여 하도 내에 콘크리트 보와 고무 보를 설치하고 물을 가두었으나, 거대홍수 시에는 이들 시설이 유수를 방해하는 저항으로 작용하여 주변 저수로의 제방이 붕괴되었다. 이러한 시설이 없는 구간에서는 하상의 기복이 사라져 하천생태계의 서식환경이 단순화 되면서 하천생태계의 다양성이 파괴되었고, 저수로를 범람한 유수는 고수부지의 약한 부분을 파괴하였다. 단순하게 변한 하상이 이후 소규모 홍수를 빈번하게 겪으면서 점차 원상태를 회복하면, 서식환경이 다양화됨으로써 하천생태계도 활기를 띠게 될 것이다.

The restoration of the impaired stream ecosystem is an important part of river policies in Ministry of Environment (MoE). However, the diagnosing the impairment sources of stream ecosystem has been omitted on the current river projects and policies. This phenomena lead the remaining impairment sources keep influencing on negative effects on streams. Hence, it is critical to construct a diagnosis system of impairment sources in order to increase the efficiency of various river restoration projects and policies. Moreover, it is also important to understand the relative impact of socio-economic factors of the impairment of stream ecosystems so as to build a domestic diagnosis system in place. Therefore, the study aims to analyse the relative effects of socio-economic factors which are the source of the stream ecosystem impairments through implementing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). In order to achieve the goal, a list of socio-economic factors influencing the stream health has been derived. On the basis of the derived causes list, AHP questionnaire were carried out to the experts of aquatic ecology. The study results could be implemented to analysing the relative influence of socio-economic impairment causes in domestic stream environments. In addition, more case study investigation is needed to cross-check if the derived impairment causes and weights are applied in the field as well as to develop more reliable indicators.

A protected area means a space designated and protected by law from development pressure and environmental pressure. It is mainly designated to protect specific ecosystems, natural landscapes, and cultural resources from irrational development (or damage), and involves policies of the public sector such as central and local governments. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has conducted conservation and restoration projects for preserving natural ecosystems and genetic resources. In order to conserve the ecosystem in the protected area, national and public organizations purchase private land and use it ecologically; in addition, ecological restoration project is carried out for the purpose of creating waterside ecological belt or preserving ecosystem. Land acquisition refers to the land where highly influenced by the water quality and need to restore, and purchased by negotiating with the landlord. Although the nation and public institution carried out ecosystem restoration project for partial purchase land in order to conserve ecosystem, it is below the expected effect due to lack of comprehensive management system and have some problems in restoration project and unification of management institutions. Land acquisition in Donggang River Basin Ecological Conservation area is initiated in 2005 for creating income of local residents and ecological restoration. However, the lack of overall management and awareness resulted in poor vegetation growth and poor response by local residents due to terrain exposure. As such, there is insufficient research on the current situation and systematic integrated management although the number of land acquisition is increasing year after year. Futhermore, overall recognition and follow-up monitoring of eco-restoration are still inadequate. Therefore, the survey on the awareness of the purchase land ecosystem restoration project is necessary for the efficient restoration project and establishment of the management strategy for land acquisition in the future. Therefore, in this study, we provide fundamental materials on further research projects by carrying out research on the awareness of ecological restoration projects in the Donggang River basin ecological preservation area.

Restoration to improve the ecological quality of Mt. Nam was explored in a viewpoint of restoration in both landscape and ecosystem levels. A restoration plan in landscape level was based on the result on the land-use pattern in Mt. Nam including its surrounding area and that in ecosystem level on the ecological quality of each landscape element. A plant to construct the green network, which extending from Mt. Nam to the Han river through the Yongsan family park and through the Eungbong urban park was prepared as a restoration project in landscape level to improve the ecological quality of Mt. Nam as an ecological park. On the other hand, a plan for restoration and creation of biotop as a restoration project in ecosystem level was also prepared to improve the ecological quality of each green area consisting green network. Green areas composing green network include keystone green area (Mt. Nam), green stations (Yongsan family park, Eungbong urban park, and the han river citizen's park), and green pathway (or ecological corridor) connecting those green areas.

대형댐 하류의 수용생태계에서는 상류로부터 공급되는 유기물과 토사 이동의 양적 단절과 질적 변환에 따라 서식처의 물리화학적 교란이 발생하게 된다. 본 연구는 금강 중상류역을 대상으로 대형댐에 의한 하상재료와 토양의 종적변화, 그리고 대형댐 건설 이후 하류 하천의 하도지형 변화를 정량적으로 파악하였다. 댐 상·하류 하상재료 입도분석 결과, 용담댐 구간은 상·하류 모두 호박돌, 굵은자갈로 조립화되어 있었으며, 대청댐 구간은 댐하류에서 중간입경이 가는자갈로 급격히 감소하고 모래비율이 급격히 증가하였다. 토양유기물은 두 개의 댐 모두 하류에서 뚜렷하게 증가하였다. 고지도와 항공사진을 이용하여 대청댐 하류의 하도지형을 분석한 결과, 사주면적의 감소와 사주 내 식생비율의 급격한 증가, 사행도와 저수로폭의 감소 경향을 정량적으로 파악할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 댐 건설에 따른 서식처 변화의 인과관계를 파악하여 댐 하류 조절하천의 자연성을 회복하기 위한 복원관리 방안을 도출하는데 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

It is very important to secure sufficient river maintenance flow for the ecosystem, since the ecosystem in the downstream section of the dam is greatly affected by the stream maintenance flow from the dam. However, the amount of discharge from the Seomjingang Dam is decreasing year by year, this study estimated the ecological flow required for the downstream section of the Seomjingang Dam, which is known as the habitat of the endangered Acheilognathus somjinensis, in order to secure the river flow of the Seomjingang Dam. For this purpose, the proper discharge was calculated using the PHABSIM model, which is a hydrological survey and physical habitat simulation method, and the proper discharge of other fish species were also comprehensively reviewed. As a result of this study, the current river maintenance flow at the Seomjingang Dam partially satisfies the ecological maintenance flow including the Acheilognathus somjinensis in the downstream section of the Seomjingang Dam. However, this is recognized as the minimum discharge to maintain the ecology in the downstream section of the Seomjingang Dam, and it would be more desirable to secure larger river maintenance flow than this. This study can contribute the determination of the river maintenance flow of the Seomjingang Dam by proposing the river maintenance flow considering the fish habitat environment in the river.

River water quality and organisms have a very close relationship with the human living environment and health, so it is very important to ensure and maintain the ecological integrity of the aquatic ecosystem. In that sense, benthic diatoms have relatively little mobility, can explain the effects of long-term exposed pollution sources, and are very suitable indicator organisms for river ecosystem evaluation. Diatom ecologists have been developed various diatom indices to assess water quality and stream ecosystem over the world. However, they so far have insufficient identification of taxa, are strongly regional, and are difficult to apply as they are domestically. Unfortunately, there has not been developed an independent diatom index suitable for the Korean stream. Therefore, management of water quality and aquatic ecosystem suitable for domestic rivers can be made, and development or improvement of comprehensive multivariate diatom index for the integrated assessment of water quality and aquatic ecosystem is urgently needed.
