한강 하구의 염분 및 생태 환경에 관한 연구를 위하여 기존에 발표된 논문과 국립수산과학원의 국가해양환경측정망 자료를 이용하여 한강 하구의 염분 분포 특성을 구명하였으며, 염분과 연관하여 동식물플랑크톤, 저서생물 및 어류플랑크톤의 분포를 논의하였다. 염분의 시공간적 분포를 고려할 때 인천북항 주변 해역은 계절에 무관하게 연중 한강 유입수의 직접적인 영향을 받고 있으며, 담수 유입량이 많은 하계에는 팔미도 해역까지 담수 영향권이 확대되었다. 반면 해수의 직접적인 영향을 받는 상한선은 한강 본류인 경기도 김포시 고촌면 신곡리의 신곡수중보에 이르며, 해침이 상시적으로 발생하는 수역은 이보다 더 하류인 경기도 김포시 하성면 전류리로 판단된다. 동식물플랑크톤의 분포는 담수 및 해수 지역에서 혼재되어 분포하며, 일반적으로 염분의 분포 범위보다 훨씬 광범위한 분포를 보였다. 그러나 기수성 어류플랑크톤은 매우 제한된 수역에 분포하는 반면, 성어는 그 분포범위가 담수에서 해수에 이르는 광범위한 분포를 보였다. 경험적 분석에 의한 한강하구 환경의 문제점은 1)한강 하구 및 유수지역의 개발 압력에 따른 환경 파괴, 2)갯벌 매립에 의한 조간대 상실, 3)군사용 철책에 의한 육수전이환경(陸水轉移環境)의 생태적 단절이 매우 심각하였다.

For the Han-river estuary and DMZ where white-naped crane (Grus vipio; endangered migratory bird) stopover or spend winter, the habitat composition and the habitat use pattern of white-naped crane were analyzed with the position data obtained by the satellite tracking method. By the use of geographic information system (GIS), the percent composition of seven habitat categories of white naped-crane data points (n=228) was analyzed. The chi-square test showed that the white-naped crane habitat use pattern was significantly different (p<0.05) from that of random points (n=228). It means that white-naped crane select and use particular habitat area in the Han-river estuary and DMZ.

In river with bar, the characteristics of its physical conditions have a close relationship with bar morphology. In this paper, a monitoring approach of bar transformation in the Han River Estuary is presented using RADARSAT/SAR Images. The estuary is divided into North and South Korea and its area is blocked by CCL(Civil Control Line). Satellite remote sensing, therefore, is uniquely suited to monitoring bar transformation. Based on SAR signatures for bars, bar transformation is investigated from 2000 to 2005, and monitoring of suspended-silt transportations from terrestrial runoff is tried to understand the morphology during the events of severe rain storm. SAR data did not reveal clearly the bar locations because of most of data acquisitions during high tides from 6.8 m to 9.0 m. Even though the problem, it could be said that in the estuary vegetated area and natural levees are developed well, but bars and shifted after an event like a flood. It is also showed that suspended solids such as silt transported through the estuary could contribute highly to a sedimentation environment around Incheon.

A heteronemertean, Yininemertes pratensis, was collected in Han River Estuary, South Korea. This estuarine nemertean has been known by the local fishermen for harmful effects to the glass eels, juveniles of Japanese eel Anguilla japonica, migrating to fresh water. The present study confirmed the neurotoxic effects of this heteronemertean ribbon worm at the cellular level. Derivative types of neurotoxic tetrodotoxin (TTX), 5,11-dideoxy TTX (m/z 288) and 11-norTTX-6(S)-01 (m/z 305.97), were identified through HPLC and MALDI-TOF MS. However, significant neurotoxicity was confirmed in the fraction containing an undefined molecule corresponding to the 291.1 (m/z) peak, when tested in rat primary astrocytes and dorsal ganglion cells. This study is the first to report neurotoxins of the estuarine nemertean, fairly abundant in the Han River estuary, and suggests the long-term monitoring of population dynamics and surveillance of the toxicity in this river estuary.

한공종합개발 휘 한강하구 및경기만에서의 퇴적환경을 파악하기 위하여 수리물리 적 및 퇴적학적 관점의 수사를 실시하였다. 수리적 특정과 퇴적학적 특성을 종합해 볼 때, 본 연구지역은 크게 \circled1 행주대교 상류역의 하천, \circled2한강과 경기만을 연결하는 하 구, \circled3 경기만 일대의 연안-만 퇴적환경으로 구분할 수 있다. 그러나 한강종합개발 이 후 한강 전역에서 통수단면적이 증가되고 유속이 감소되는 등 전반적인 수리물리적 특 성이 변화됨으로써 한강하류 및 하구역(강화대료)에서의 부유물질 농도가 각각 37mg/l, 500-1750 mg/l에서 개발이후 17 mg/l 208-1142 mg/l 로 큰 폭으로 감소된 것 으로 나타났다. 또한 하류 수중보 부근에서는 siltation이 유발되고 있으며, 하천환경 과 하구환경의 경제가 점이 적이지 못하고 급격한 변화를 보이는 등 퇴적환경에도 상 당한 변화가 초래된 것으로 나타났다. 이는 주로 종합개발에 수반되는 한강의 수위저 하를 방지하기 위하여 잠실대교와 신곡에 수중보를 설치함으로써 비롯된 것으로 사료 된다. 하구는 하천과 해양을 연결하는 전이지역이므로, 한강과 한구에서의 이러한 변 화는 앞으로 인접한 퇴환경에도 많은 영향을 미칠 것으로 사료되며, 경기만으로 파급 되는 영향을 파악하기 위하여는 무엇보다도 임진강과 예성강 하구를 포함한 한강 하구 역에 대한 상세한 연구가 요구된다.

The Han River is divided into North and South Korea by NLL(Northern Limit Line) and its area has been blocked by CCL(Civil Control Line) since the Korean War in 1950. Satellite remote sensing, therefore, is uniquely suited to monitoring bar transformation in the region. In river with bar, the characteristics of its physical conditions have a close relationship with bar morphology. In this paper, a monitoring approach of bar transformation in the Han River Estuary is presented using RADARSAT/SAR images from 2000 to 2005 and spatial patterns of bar morphology are presented. it could be said that in the estuary vegetated area and natural levees are developed well, but bars are shifted after an event like a flood. It is also showed that suspended solids such as silt transported through the estuary could contribute highly to a sedimentation environment around Incheon.

To clarify the types of brackish region of the Han River Estuary, this research was carried out, and the results obtained on the basis of salinities and phytoplankton are as follows: 1. Geomorphologically, the Han River Estuary is the drowned river valley type. 2. According to the Venice System, the estuarine extent is defined from the lower point of Jollyu-ri to Palmi Island. As a whole the estuarine region is mixo-haline including parts from oligo-haline to poly-haline. 3. In standpont of phytoplankton frequency, the frequency of fresh-water species is high in the upper region of estuary and that of marine species is high in the lower region. The rate of frequency of fresh-water species is inversely proportionate to that of marine species. The area mixedby marine and fresh-water species over estuarine boundary. 4. The frequency of some typical brackish species is very low and almost similar in the whole region.

낙동강하굿둑의 건설로 원활한 용수 공급이 이루어졌으나, 하구 수생태계의 종적 연결성을 단절시켰다. 이에 낙동강하굿둑 개방에 대한 사회적 요구가 지속적으로 제기되어 왔으며, 2017년부터 낙동강하구역 기수생태계 복원을 위한 노력이 본격화되었다. 낙동강 하구에는 다양한 어종이 서식해 왔으며, 이들의 서식·이동 특성은 상이하므로 이를 고려한 수문운영은 기수생태계 복원에 필수적이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 낙동강하구에 서식·이동하는 어류를 모니터링을 통해 확인하였으며, 방류 시 수문운영 형태별, 개도별 평균 유속을 산출하여, 어종에 따른 원활한 소상 가능성을 분석하였다. 또한 대상어종을 선정하고, 주 분포 수심에 따른 수문운영 형태를 제시하는 등 낙동강 하구역의 기수생태계 복원을 적극적으로 수행하기 위한 수문운영 방안을 제시하였다.

We present basic data for developing new research topics and closely examine the existing data on the development and organization of the Nakdong River Estuary Delta by analyzing various studies of the area, including ocean engineering, coastal engineering, ocean environmental engineering, geomorphological, and geological studies. We first defined the general concepts related to the estuary and delta and reviewed the historical development of the Nakdong River Estuary Delta over the past 100 years. We then examined the origin and core elements of the estuary deposits that constitute the delta. In addition, we scrutinized the main factors affecting the development of the delta and analyzed existing research on delta development mechanisms by core researchers. The construction of an estuary barrage is one of the main factors effecting estuarine circulation and has altered the physical oceanic environment, area of deposition, atmospheric environment, and vegetation community of the delta. These factors affect the estuary circulation in turn, altering the delta. Along the Nakdong River, an unsteady-state sandy barrier appears at approximately three times the distance of the wavelength of incident offshore waves, and this terrain forms approximately 10-15 years after reclamation in the interdistributary upper stream and transforms the shoreline. It is necessary to develop a technique to predict terrain change that reproduces the erosion and accumulation of estuarine deposits. To determine the parameters and variables necessary to reproduce this system, continuous on-site monitoring is necessary. The existing research did not fully examine the terrain changes in Nakdong River Estuary or the periodic developmental characteristics. To understand the future process of estuary delta development, it is necessary to establish an integrated management system.
