We studied algal growth-related water quality of the Dongbok lake which is the drinking water reservoir for the Gwangju municipality. Peridinium cinctum and several diatomic algal species frequently caused water bloom throughout the lake from early spring to late autumn. With the heaviest predominance of Peridinium cintum in May 2003, COD was 13.7 mg/I in the surface layer. Highly turbid surface water with 46.8 mg/I of SS was also caused by Perdinium bloom. Peridinium bloom decisively eliminated cyanobacterial growth in the lake, otherwise cyanobacterial bloom resulted. Dense algal layer was confined in the upper several meters of the water column above the thermocline, which gives relatively algae-free water in deeper layer suitable for drinking source water supply. Upon collapse of thermocline, water quality of the surface layer was improved while deeper layer was deteriorated in terms of water quality. This paper deals with some details of water quality changes with algal growth in the Dongbok lake past two years.

In order to investigate the geochemical characteristics of surface sediments in lower Yeongsan river system, sediment samples from the main stream of Yeongsan river, Gomakwon and Hampyeong streams were collected and analyzed for grain size and metal and organic carbon contents. The sediment types of the streams widely vary from pebble to mud. The metal contents in the sediments are mainly dependent on grain size of the sediments, geology around the streams and organic matter contents from the domestic sewage. Enrichment factor (EF) representing the degree of metal contamination in the sediments are relatively low in the study area. But, high Zn and Pb values seem to be from the study area, partly.

This paper attempts to measure the environmental value of the Nakdong-river estuary, which is ecologically important but confronted with the threat of development. Especially, in order to elicit the environmental values of its four attributes, contingent valuation method(CVM) based on multi-attribute utility theory is applied and the CVM survey was rigorously designed to comply with the guidelines for best-practiced CVM studies. We surveyed a randomly selected sample of 400 and 350 households in Busan and six large cities(Seoul, Incheon, Daegu, Daejeon, Gwangju, and Ulsan), respectively and asked respondents questions in person-to-person interviews about how they would willing to pay for the estuary conservation and management program. Respondents overall accepted the contingent market and were willing to contribute a significant amount(2,457 won in Busan and 3,560 won in six large cities), on average, per household per year, which implies that there exists a large difference between the two. The aggregate values of the Nakdong-river estuary in Busan and six large cities amount to 2.92 and 22.32 billion won, respectively, per year. In addition, expanding the values to Korea produces 51.34 billion won per year. The quantitative values can be utilized in planning and decision-making about development versus conservation of the estuary.

This study was to evaluate the biaxial flexural strength of zirconia ceramics after glass-infiltration on zirconia core. The zirconia specimens were made with diameter-15mm, thickness-0.6mm using zirconia block which divided into 1) sintered group, 2) heat - treated group, 3) Glass - infiltrated group and experimented fracture strength by each 10 specimens in experimental group. The biaxial flexural test was performed at crosshead speed of 0.1${\beta}\;{\AE}$ min. The experiment result average fracture strength was shown 541.0${\beta}\acute{A}$ in sintered group and glass-infiltrated group as 662.2${\beta}\acute{A}$ river of 22.4% rise appear. Weibull coefficient sintered group is 3.462 and glass-infiltrated group improved believability about fracture strength from melting permeation processing of glass by 4.716.

During a survey of fungal diversity of the order Mortierellales, a zygomycete strain, EML-YS717-1, was isolated from a freshwater sample collected from the Yeongsan River in Gwangju, Korea. Based on its morphological characteristics and a phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS1 and ITS2) and 5.8S rDNA sequences, the strain was identified as Mortierella minutissima. To the best of our knowledge, M. minutissima, has not previously been authentically reported in Korea.

An adult male Eurasian river otter (Lutra lutra) with ataxia and lethargy was rescued. Through the necropsy of this otter with neurological symptoms, a broad range of vascular damage caused by mercury toxicity in several organs, hepatocellular necrosis, and vacuolation in the brain. In mercury examination, liver, kidney, and hair showed values of 0.878 ± 0.027, 1.807 ± 0.049, and 5.712 ± 0.102 ㎍/g, respectively. Compared with certified reference material, it was confirmed that the concentration of mercury were 6.7 times, 13.7 times, and 43.3 times higher, respectively. When the symptoms and diagnosis results were comprehensively reviewed, this otter's demise was revealed due to mercury poisoning. The mercury concentration in the liver does not exceed the lowest observed effect level of 3.4 ㎍/g. However, even at low concentrations, long-term accumulation can cause symptoms including neuropathy, and the possibility that these heavy metals have accumulated in other wild animals cannot be ruled out. It seems that continuous monitoring using sentinel animals is necessary.

광주읍성은 구 전남도청이 위치한 국립 아시아 문화전당 건립부지 내에서 지표조사 결과 확인된 유적이다. 성벽의 길이는 일부 유실구간을 제외하고 총 85.1m이며, 석벽을 축조하기 위하여 총 10종의 암석이 사용된 것으로 나타났다. 이중에서 석영안산암이 41.1%, 안산암이 35.7%로 가장 높은 점유율을 보였다. 석영안산암은 성벽을 축성하는 주석재로 사용되었으며, 안산암은 주로 큰 부재 사이를 채우기 위한 사잇돌로 사용되었다. 암석학적 및 지형학적으로 볼 때 축성암석의 산지일 가능성이 높을 것으로 판단되는 무등산 일대에 분포하는 암석들을 대상으로 각각의 성인적 동질성을 검토한 결과, 산출상태, 전암대자율, 구성광물의 종류, 상대적 함량 및 조직, 지구화학적 특징이 서로 아주 유사하였다. 또한 무등산 남서쪽 사면의 증심사 계곡을 따라 석영안산암의 노두에서는 암석의 채석 흔적이 산재한다. 따라서 광주읍성의 축성에 사용된 대량의 석재는 무등산 남서 사면에서 조달하였으며, 석재의 이동은 광주천을 이용하였을 가능성이 높았을 것으로 해석된다.

섬진강 하구역에서 일차생산을 조절하는 환경요인과 기작을 포악하기 위하여 엽록소 a, 영양염, pH, 부유물질, 용존산소, 염분과 일차생산을 2001년 2월, 4월, 8월, 10월 네 차례에 걸쳐서 측정하였다. 조사기간 중 일차생산의 범위는 50.7에서 14,203.3 mg C $m^{-3} day^{-1}$의 범위를 보여주었다. 다른 하구역과는 대조적으로 본 조사지역에서는 대부분의 시기에 높은 수층 투명도로 인하여 광 조건이 광합성의 제한요인으로 작용하지 않았다. 염분이 10에서 20 psu사이의 지역에서 가을철 대증식이 발생하였는데, 이 현상은 매년 나타나는 것으로 보이며 그 기작에 대하여 추가적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 생각된다 일차생산을 조절하는 주된 요인 중의 하나인 영양염의 거동은 염분에 의하여 지배되는 것으로 보인다. 질소계 영양염의 주된 공급원은 섬진강으로부터의 담수에 의한 것으로 보이는 반면, 인은 광양만 유역의 산업폐수로부터 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 본 조사지역에서 식물플랑크톤에 의한 일차생산은 시간적 공간적인 변화를 보이며, 수층의 투명도와 밀접한 관계를 나타내고, 인접한 광양만 내의 연안역에 비교하여 상대적으로 높은 값을 나타내었다.

본 연구는 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)을 이용하여 섬진강유역과 영산강유역을 대상으로 유역간 물이동 모델링을 수행하였다. 먼저, 영산강과 섬진강유역에 대해 SWAT 모형을 구축하였고 저수지 운영 매개변수 WURESN(Water Use Reservoir Withdrawn)과 Inlet 기능을 이용하여 섬진강유역의 주암댐에서 영산강유역의 광주천으로의 물이동 모델링을 수행하였다. 섬진강유역의 주암댐과 영산강유역의 마륵 수위관측소의 2005년~2017년까지의 댐 방류량, 저수량 그리고 도수유량 자료를 이용하여 SWAT모형의 검보정을 하였다. 주암댐 검보정결과의 평균 RMSE, NSE, R²는 각각 2.22 mm/day, 0.62, 0.86로 나타났고 마륵 관측소는 각각 1.38 mm/day, 0.69, 0.84로 나타났다. 유역간 물이동에 의한 하류의 영향을 평가하기 위해, 영산강유역내 다기능보 2개(승촌보, 죽산보)와 섬진강유역의 곡성과 구례 수위관측소를 선택하여 검보정을 진행하였다. 승촌보, 죽산보, 곡성 및 구례 관측소의 검보정 결과에 대한 평균 RMSE, NSE, R²는 각각 1.49~2.49 mm/day, 0.45~0.76, 0.81~0.90로 분석되었다.

The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of ecological experience program at the urban stream on the environmental sensitivity of elementary school students. In order to perform this study, two classes of 6th graders of M elementary school in Gwangju were selected and divided into two groups; one groups was the experimental group that undergoes ecological experience program at the Gwangju River, and another group was the control group that studied about environment in the classroom. The results of this study were as following. First of all, the experimental group has more influence on the environmental sensitivity than the control group. Secondly, the ecological experience program at the urban stream can be the effective method to build the environmental sensitivity of elementary school students. In conclusion, the results are showing that the ecological experience program at the urban stream helps elementary school students to change their environmental sensitivity in positive ways, also it gives idea that how to protect the environment and what they actually can do.
