The Ministry of Environment plans to improve quality of water which is achieved over 85% in rivers and 94% in lakes of the whole country as "Good Water" until 2015. Also, the law of evaluation of water quality and water quality goal were made newly. So, the water quality has evaluated by using new law since 2007. This study evaluated whether "Good Water" and" Water Quality Goal" were achieved or not in 22 middle-sized districts and major 10 lakes of Geum river. The achievement rates of rivers decreased and the achievement rates of lakes mostly were the same for 5 years. In 2007, the achievement rates of "Good Water" were 50% in rivers and 50% in lakes. The achievement rate of "Water Quality Goal" were 59.1% in rivers and 20% in lakes. The water quality in 2007 was evaluated worse than last year in case of rivers. The evaluations of Korea-Comprehensive Water Quality Index(K-CWQI) showed that achievement rates of "Water Quality Goal" were 81.8% in rivers and 0% in lakes. The statistical correlation analysis showed that correlations between BOD and COD were meaningful at the downstream, compared to upstream, generally. In case of lakes, correlations between COD and temperature were meaningful. Also, correlations between COD and Chl-a were meaningful. The Trophic State Index ($TSI_{KO}$) showed that the half of lakes are major over eutrophic status in lakes. These analytical methods such as K-CWQI, $TSI_{KO}$, statistical correlation analysis could be additionally helpful for evaluation of water quality and provide basis data for understanding characteristics of watershed in Geum river.

소옥천 유역 내 본류 8개 지점의 수질 모니터링 자료를 이용하여 한국형 부영양화지수($TSI_{ko}$)를 산정하고 COD, T-P, Chl-a에 의해 계산된 인자별 $TSI_{ko}$를 이용하여 하천에 대한 환경특성을 분류하고 평가하였다. 소옥천 유역의 경우 수심이 얕고 강우시 비점오염 유입, 하수처리장 방류수 유입, 체류시간 증가 등으로 조류가 성장하기 좋은 조건을 갖추고 있어 연중 중영양 이상의 영양 상태를 보이고 있다. 특히 대청호 유입 지점인 추소 지점의 경우 수리학적 특성으로 인해 수질이 악화되어 부영양 상태를 나타내고 있었다. 따라서 소옥천에 대한 정밀 모니터링을 통해 원인분석과 이에 따른 수질개선대책 수립이 우선적으로 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study is to investigate the allochthonous load and water quality of a typical river-reservoir, Paldang during spring (March ~ May) of 17 years (2001 ~ 2017). Phosphorus loading from point sources seems to have been reduced by 74 % in the 2010s. As a result, trophic state of the Paldang reservoir, eutrophic during the 2000s, has returned to the lmesotrophic state. Along with decrease in phosphorus concentration, standing crops of algae (Chl.a) decreased, and concentration of biodegradable organic material decreased to the past level. Concentration of total suspended solids has decreased, and it is due to the decrease of phytoplankton standing crops since the mid-2000s. As transparency increased, it is estimated that euphotic area increased by 22 % and euphotic capacity expanded by 27 %. In the river/transition zone of Paldang, concentration of organic matter increases slightly due to algal growth, but concentration of all water quality items decreases in the lacustrine zone. Although algal growth rate revealed positive correlation with concentration of phosphorus, it was insignificant. Algal growth appeared to be dependent on renewal of phosphorus by flow, than either flow rate or phosphorus concentration. The empirical model including inflow phytoplankton concentration fit well with observed values, and indicates the Paldang reservoir is greatly influenced by allochthonous loads.

Physicochemical factors and the phytoplankton communities in the downstream area of Namhan-River were investigated from June 2012 to November 2013. We also assessed water quality using biological water quality indices. Total nitrogen was 2.4 mg/L, total phosphorus was 0.04 mg/L, and biological oxygen demand was 1.1 mg/L. This resulted in a level 2 (Ib, good) water quality rating. A total of 259 phytoplankton taxa were classified, consisting of 26 families, two subfamilies, 64 genera, 222 species, 32 varieties, and five formas. Bacillariophyceae dominated during a1l seasons and at all sites. The dominant species were Aulacoseira granulata, Cyclotella meneghiniana, C. stelligera, Melosira varians, Cocconeis placentula var. lineata, Nitzschia palea, N. amphibia, Cymbella minuta, and Achnanthes convergens. The diatom assemblage index for organic pollution values was level A-D, and TDI was level B-D. P-IBI at most sites was at the M (moderate) level, but TSI was at the E (eutrophic) level. Most indices dropped from upstream to downstream.

In order to determine the factors causing Microcystis spp. bloom in the lower Nakdong River (Mulgum), we prepared wide ranges of pH, nutrient(N, P) concentration and the light through an enclosure experiment far 10days (pH gradient. 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5; gradient of N, P: ${\frac{1}{2}}DW+{\frac{1}{2}}River$ Water (RW), RW only; four different levels of nutrient addition/day; light: 100, 85, 60, 30, 15% of full sun light). From three days, the difference of Microcystis density in each enclosures was observed. The high density of Microcystis was maintained in the treatments over pH 9.5 and 85% of full sun light. However, in all nutrient treatments, relatively lower cell density than that of pH and light treatments was observed. These results suggested that pH and light input may play more important roles than nutrients in the early development of Microcystis bloom in the eutrophic lower Nakdong River.

부영양화된 한강기수역에서의 용존산소 및 $NH_4{^+}$ 제거에 있어 조석의 영향 및 질산화의 중요성을 이해하고자 1995년 7월에 강화도 남단에서 만조, 중조 및 소조 시에 해수시료를 채취하였다. 수온과 DO를 제외한 하계 한강기수역의 생물, 화학적 환경을 결정짓는 요인들이 담수의 유입과 수역 내의 심한 조석 변화에 의해 조절되는 것으로 나타났다. 조석상태에 따른 용존산소 및 $NH_4{^+}$ 의 제거율은 만조 시 각각 2.76 ${\mu}M\;O_2\;d^{-1}$ 및 1.76 ${\mu}M\;N\;d^{-1}$이며, 간조 시 각각 5.66 ${\mu}M\;O_2\;d^{-1}$ 및 3.36 ${\mu}M\;N\;d^{-1}$로 최대로 나타나 간조 시 담수와 함께 유입되는 다량의 각종 유기물 및 무기영양염에 대한 미생물의 분해 및 흡수가 활발히 진행되고 있음을 알 수 있다. $NH_4{^+}$-질산화는 간조 시 총 DO 소모량의 약 24%를 차지하며 $NH_4{^+}$-질산화에 의한 $NH_4{^+}$의 회전율도 0.18 $d^{-1}$로 만조 때에 비해 각각 3.7배 및 3배 높게 나타나, 담수성 $NH_4{^+}$-질산화 박테리아가 간조 시 한강기수역으로 유입되면서 DO 및 $NH_4{^+}$의 소모에 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있는 것으로 사료된다. 만조 시 $NH_4{^+}$ 감소율 및 $NH_4{^+}$-질산화가 낮은 것은 염분증가에 따른 담수성 $NH_4{^+}$-질산화 박테리아의 활성이 위축되어 나타난 결과로 보이며, 이상의 결과들은 한강기수역에서 $NH_4{^+}$의 효율적인 생물학적 제거를 위해서는 $NH_4{^+}$를 포함하는 각종 오 폐수가 기수역으로 유입되기 이전에 처리됨이 바람직함을 의미한다. 향후 한강기수역과 같은 대규모 담수의 유입이 일어나는 부영양화된 기수역에서 질소계 원소의 순환을 보다 잘 이해하기 위해서는 $NH_4{^+}$ 및 $N0_2{^-}$를 유일한 화학에너지원으로 이용하는 자가영양 질산화 박테리아에 대한 생태적 연구가 병행되어야 한다.

We investigated the most effective cutting interval for underwater nutrient removal through cut off the emergent part of hydrophytes at artificial vegetation island (AVR) which was installed for the purpose of water quality improvement in Lake Paldang. We divided the planting area of Phragmites japonica into three parts according to the cutting intervals. The shoot height and relative growth rate of P. japonica, nutrient contents and biomass of cut off P. japonica were measured at each cutting interval. The amount of nutrients which were removed through cut off at each cutting interval was calculated. P. japonica showed full growth, 80% and 60% of full growth before first cut off at three-months, two-months and one-month cutting interval condition respectively. Three-month cutting interval condition showed the largest biomass of cut off P. japonica and one-month cutting interval condition showed the least. However the cut off P. japonica showed the highest content of nutrients at one-month cutting interval condition and the least at three-month cutting interval condition. The amount of phosphorus and nitrogen removal at two-month cutting off condition is the largest among three cutting interval conditions indicating that cut off the emergent part of P. japonica every two months is the most effective to remove the nutrients from water at AVR in eutrophic lakes.

조류성장잠재력의 검정 (AGPT)은 수생대계에서의 생물학적 생산잠재력을 평가하는 유용한 도구로 이용되어왔다. 본 연구는 낙동강 유역에 위치하는 대형 인공호들과 낙동강 본류의 상하류에 해당하는 몇 개 지점에서 조류성장잠재력을 비교하였다. AGPT의 공시조류로 Microcystis aeruginosa을 이용하였고 2003년 2월부터 9월까지 갈수기와 풍수기를 포함하여 계절에 따라 4회 분석하였다. 낙동강 유역에 위치한 인공호들의 AGP는 하천과 비교하여 매우 낮게 나타났다. 하천구간에서는 대체적으로 도시하천과 근접한 상류에서 높고 하류로 갈수록 감소하는 양상을 보였으나 하계에 유입량이 급증한 직후에는 상하류 간 차이가 크게 감소하였다. 낙동강 유역의 인공호, 강 및 하구호의 수질은 갈수기에 더욱 악화되었고 이 시기에 AGP값도 높게 나타났다. AGP는 시공간적으로 변화 폭이 컸고 수중 영양염 수준과 매우 밀접한 관계를 보였다. 특히, AGP는 영양염 중 인과 상관성이 가장 높아 낙동강의 조류 생장에 인의 영향이 가장 큰 것으로 추정되었다. 본 연구의 견과는 AGPT가 조류 생장에 대한 제한영양염 판정 뿐만 아니라 수중 fertility를 평가함에 있어 유용한 도구로 사용한 수 있음을 제시한다.

The Keum river has been utilized for drinking water supply of several city including Kunsan city and is deepening pollution state due to numerous municipal and industrial discharges. The concentration BOD in river is affected by the organic loading from a tributary and the algae biomass that largely happen to under eutrophication state. In the eutrophic water mass such as the Keum river, the autochthonous BOD was very important part for making a decision of water quality management, because it was accounted for majority of the total BOD. The predict of water quality has important meaning for management of water quality pollution of the Keum river. The purpose of this study will manage and predict water quality of the Keum river using QUAL-2E model considering the autochthonous BOD. The estimation of autochthonous BOD represented that the relationship between BOD and chlorophyll a. The regression equation was shown to be autochthonous BOD=$\beta$(sub)5$\times$chlorophyll a. The results of this study may be summarized as followed; The QUAL-2E model was calibrated with the data surveyed in the field of the study area in June, 1998. The calculated value by QUAL-2E model are in good agree to measured value within relative error of 7.80~20.33%. Especially, in the case of the considering autochthonous BOD, the calculated value of BOD were fairly good coincided with the observed values within relative error of 15%. But the case of not considering autochthonous BOD, relative error of BOD was shown to be 43.2%. In order to attain II grade of water quality standard in Puyo station which has a intake facility of water supply, we reduced to the pollutants loading of tributaries. In the case of removed 100% BOD of tributaries, the BOD of Puyo station was 4.07mg/$\ell$, belong to III grade of water quality standard. But in the case of removed 88% nutrient of tributaries, it was satisfied to II grade of water quality standard as below 3mg/$\ell$ of BOD. For estimation of autochthonous BOD in Keum river, we are performed simulating in accordance with reduction of nutrient load(50~100%) under conditions removal 90% organic load. Occupancy of autochthonous BOD according to nutrient loading reductions were varied from 25.97~79.51%. Occupancy of autochthonous BOD was shown to be a tendency to increasing in accordance with reduction of nutrient loading. Showing the above results, the nutrient that one of the growing factor of algae was important role in decision of BOD in the Keum river. For the water quality management of the Keum river, therefore, it is necessary to considering autochthonous BOD and to construction of advanced sewage treatment plant for nutrient removal.
