To secure national future competitiveness, the Korean government announced the 『National Ultra-High Performance Computing (HPC) Innovation Strategy (2021.5.28.)』 and set three innovation strategy goals throughout establishing an innovation ecosystem. This study presented a heterogenous data-based strategic support framework that allowed to understand both the current status of domestic & foreign R&D areas and domestic industrial economy areas in terms of strategic fields related to ultra-high performance computing, and the empirical research was conducted in the life science and public health area. The HPC innovation ecosystem platform based on the connection of heterogeneous data (domestic R&D project-technology-industry-overseas R&D project) presented in this study provided useful and essential information that allowed establishing a specific action plan for the national HPC innovation strategy and contributing to vitalizing the innovation ecosystem. Since the evidence-based policy assumes that a more reasonable consensus is reached through a non-biased decision- making process among stakeholders, the proposed platform may contribute to enhancing policy momentum by increasing legitimacy and trust of planning of the national HPC strategy.

To analyze the riverine microbial community structure, genetic fingerprints and ecological indexes such as species abundances, diversity, evenness, dominance of targeted rivers in Gyeonggi Province were acquired and evaluated using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) technique. Genetic fingerprinting technique such as T-RFLP, which is able to show the microbial community clearly unlike traditional culture-dependent techniques, was thought to be useful to analyse the riverine microbial ecosystem under various factors. Riverine ecosystem evaluation using visible organisms would give biased results with time, targeted organism and researcher. But, T-RFLP, which can exclude the subjected biases such as culture condition and identification, would be an option to understand natural ecosystem by including the microorganisms that defy culture but perform important functions.

본 연구는 낙동강 유역의 수생태계 건강성 조사지점에서 생물 및 서식환경, 수질에 대한 건강성을 조사 및 평가한 결과자료를 이용하여 공간정보로 재구축하고 공간분석기법을 활용하여 낙동강 유역의 수생태계 보전 및 복원 정책의 합리적인 의사결정을 지원하고 효율적인 관리방안을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 낙동강 유역의 수생태계 건강성을 분석하기 위하여 250개 조사구간의 수생태계 건강성 조사 및 평가 결과자료를 각 지점별 위치정보를 기반으로 점형 자료로 구축하였다. 그리고 공간적인 분석기법의 적용을 위해 면형 자료로 재구축 할 필요성이 있으며, 이를 위해 Kriging 보간법(ArcGIS 10.1, Geostatistical Analysis)을 활용하여 공간적 영향력 및 트랜드를 분석하였고 면형 자료로 재구축 하였다. 이를 바탕으로 낙동강 유역 건강성의 공간분포 특성을 분석하기 위해 Hotspot(Getis-Ord Gi, $G^*_i$)과 LISA(Local Indicator of Spatial Association), 표준편차타원체(Standard deviational ellipse) 분석을 활용하였다. Hotspot 분석 결과 생물지수(TDI, BMI, FAI)의 Hotspot 유역은 안동댐 상류, 왕피천, 임하댐 유역으로 생물지수의 건강성 등급이 양호한 것으로 분석되었으며, Coldspot 유역은 낙동강 남해, 낙동강 하구, 수영강 등의 유역으로 나타났다. LISA 분석 결과 이례지역은 가화천, 합천댐 상류, 영강 상류 유역으로 분석되었으며 이 지역은 생물 건강성 지수가 높은 유역이지만 주변 유역의 건강성이 낮아 수생태계 건강성에 대한 관리가 필요한 유역으로 분석되었다. 이화학적 요인(BOD)의 Hotspot 유역은 낙동강하류 유역과 수영강, 회야강, 낙동강남해 유역으로 나타났으며, Coldspot 유역은 안동댐, 임하댐, 영강 등 낙동강 지류의 상류 유역으로 분석되었다. 서식 및 수변환경(HRI)요인의 Hotspot과 LISA 분석결과 요인별 Hotspot과 Coldspot이 다르게 분석되었으나 일반적으로 낙동강 상류, 안동댐, 임하댐, 합천댐 유역 등 낙동강 본류와 지류의 상류 유역 서식 및 수변환경 건강성이 좋은 것으로 분석되었다. 서식 및 수변환경 요인이 Coldspot으로 나타난 유역들은 생물지수와 이화학적 요인의 건강성 지수도 낮게 나타나 서식 및 수변환경의 관리가 필요한 유역으로 판단할 수 있다. 표준편차타원체로 분석한 시계열 분석결과 생물과 서식 및 수변환경에 의한 수생태계 건강성이 좋은 지역이 점점 북쪽으로 이동하는 경향을 나타내고 있으며 BOD 결과는 조사년도에 따라 방향과 집중도가 각각 다르게 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 수생태계 건강성 분석 결과는 조사지점별 건강성 관리정보뿐만 아니라 향후 공간정보 기술기반 수환경 연구와 실무연구진을 위한 집수구역 단위 수생태계를 관리할 수 있는 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of stream nutrient regime, N:P ratios and suspended solids on fish tolerance/trophic compositions and stream ecosystem health, based on multi-metric model, during 2008-2013. Also, stream ecosystem health was evaluated in relation to chlorophyll-a (CHL) as a measure of algal productivity or indicators of trophic state to water chemical parameters. Total number of sampled fish species were 50 and showed a decreasing trend from 2008 to 2013. The minnow of Zacco platypus, based on the catch per unit effort (CPUE), was the most dominant species (25.9%) among the all species. Spatial heterogeneity was evident in the fish tolerance guilds that showed the dominance of sensitive species (89%) in the headwaters (S1) and the dominance of tolerant species (57%) in the urban. These conditions were directly influenced by concentrations of nutrients and organic matter (COD). The N:P ratios, as a barometer of water pollution, had a negative linear function (R² = 0.40, P < 0.01) with CHL, and the ratios had an important role in changes of COD concentration (R² = 0.40, P < 0.01). Under the circumstances, the N:P ratio directly influenced the relative proportions of fish trophic/tolerance compositions. According to the regression analysis of omnivore (O_m) and insectivore sp. (I_n) on total nitrogen and total phosphorus, nitrogen had no significant influences (P > 0.05) to the two compositions, but phosphorus influenced directly the two guilds [slope (a) = -32.3, R² = 0.25, P < 0.01 in the I_n; a = 40.7, R² = 0.19, P < 0.01 in the O_m]. Such water chemistry and fish trophic guilds determined the stream ecosystem health, based on the multi-metric fish model.

Pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment are trace contaminants of growing importance in environmental health due to their physiologically active nature. Pharmaceuticals could affect non-target species and might eventually damage sustainability of susceptible populations in the ecosystem. Potentials for health consequences among susceptible human population cannot be ruled out since long-term exposure to cocktails of pharmaceuticals, which might be present in drinking water, is possible. Selection of antibiotic resistant microorganisms is of another concern. In order to understand, and if needed, to properly address the environmental health issues of pharmaceutical residues, knowledge gaps need to be filled. Knowledge gaps exist in many important areas such as prioritization of target pharmaceuticals for further risk studies, occurrence patterns in different environments, chronic toxicities, and toxicities of pharmaceutical mixtures. Appropriate treatment technologies for drinking water and wastewater could be developed when they are deemed necessary. One of the simplest, yet most efficient measures that could be undertaken is to implement a return program for unused or expired drugs. In addition, implementation of environmental risk assessment frameworks for pharmaceuticals would make it possible to efficiently manage potential environmental health problems associated with pharmaceutical residues in the environment.

Current water quality standard (WQS) in Korea is based on the protection of human health, not considering the protection of aquatic organisms. Most of chemicals can be toxic to ecological biota as well as human. Health of aquatic biota is closely related to the human health via food chain, therefore ecological risk based-WQS needs to be developed to protect the aquatic ecosystem. In this study, we selected the 31 chemicals in the Project entitled 'Development of integrated methodology for evaluation of water environment'. The methodology for calculating water quality criteria was derived from the Australian and New Zealand processes for deriving guideline trigger value for aquatic ecosystem. The available ecotoxicity data were collected from US EPA's ECOTOXicology Database (ECOTOX), TOX-2000 Database, European Chemicals Bureau (ECB)'s International Uniform Chemical Information Database (IUCLID) and Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA)'s report 'Ambient Water Quality Criteria (AWQC)'. The aquatic toxicity data for the Korean species were selected for risk assessment to reflect the Korean water environment. The monitoring values were calculated from the water quality monitoring data four main Korean rivers. We suggested the order of priorities of chemicals based on ecological risk assessment. We expect that these results can be useful information for establishing the WQS for the protection of aquatic ecosystem.

A wide-spread contamination of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as dioxins, PCBs, PBDEs in the aquatic ecosystem has generated a great concern over the potential risk for these substances to impact marine biotas and food web. Since a major exposure route of these substances to the humans is through the consumption of food including fish and marine byproducts, the consumption of contaminated products has been a great public health concern. Exposure to POPs has been associated with a wide spectrum of adverse effects including reproductive, developmental, immunologic, carcinogenic, and neurotoxic effects. This review covers the background information of key POPs substances and the recent development of toxicity studies including the mode of action. Because neurotoxic effects of some POPs have been observed in humans at low concentrations, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), a representative chemical of POPs, is focused to discuss the possible mode(s) of action for the neurotoxic effects. This review provides the updates of toxicity studies on POPs and paves ways to discuss a possible implication of contaminated marine biota over the human health among the marine biotechnology researchers.
