To examine the characteristics of the nutrient release from the sediments in two reservoirs, Lake Paldang and Lake Cheungpyeung, we analyzed physical and chemical properties of the sediments and calculated the nutrient release rates from the sediments. The particle properties of sediments in Lake Paldang changed from silt to sand after summer rainy season, especially in the water area of the Kyeungan River where the water depth was shallow and the width of river was narrow. The sediments in Lake Cheungpyeung had higher contents of silt and clay than in Lake Paldang, and the particle size was not much different before and after rainfall. The release rates of nutrients in two lakes varied with the kind of nutrients and the season. The release rates of DTN and ${NH_4}^+-N$ in Lake Paldang were faster in spring than autumn. But the Lake Cheungpyeung showed similar values of release rates before and after summer rainy season. ${NO_3}^--N$ and phosphorous were not released from sediments or were absorbed into sediments all the time in two lakes. Compared with other lakes, the sediments of two lakes consisted of bigger particles and had a lower organic matters content than other lake-type reservoirs. Due to the short hydraulic retention time and no stratification throughout the year in Lake Paldang and Lake Cheungpyeung, the release rates of nutrients from sediment in these reservoirs were lower than other lakes and this seems to be a typical characteristic of river-type reservoirs.

일단위 강우-유출모형인 SSARR모형을 이용하여 한강, 낙동강, 섬진강유역에 월 앙상블 유량예측 시스템을 구축하였다. 우선 SSARR모형의 월 평균 유출량에 대한 모의정확성을 평가한 결과 한강과 낙동강유역에서는 과소추정하는 경향이 뚜렷하였으며, 섬진강유역에서는 모의오차의 분산이 커 정확성 개선이 필요하였다. 최적선형 보정기법을 적용하여 SSARR모형의 모의유량을 보정한 결과, 섬진강을 제외한 한강과 낙동강유역의 검증지점에서는 모의 정확성이 크게 개선되었다. 또한 1998년부터 2003년까지 월 앙상블 유량예측을 실시하여 예측 정확성을 평가하였다. 한강과 낙동강유역에서 최적선형 보정기법을 이용할 경우 앙상블 유량예측 정확성이 크게 개선되었으나, 섬진강유역은 개선효과가 미비하였다.

본 연구에서는 팔당호 내 주요지점에서 수심별 연속 수리 및 수온 조사를 수행하여 팔당호의 시공간적 물순환 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 이포보와 청평댐에서의 수온 및 방류 패턴의 차이로 인하여 팔당호 내 북한강 및 남한강 구간에서의 흐름 및 수온 변동특성이 상이하게 나타났다. 수직혼합기에는 북한강과 남한강 구간의 전 층에서 하류방향 흐름이 우세하게 나타났다. 성층형성기에 이포보 방류수의 수온이 청평댐 방류수의 수온보다 높았으며, 이로 인해 북한강 하류 구간에서 표층은 상대적으로 고온수가 위치하여 상류방향 흐름으로 배수 현상이 나타나고 수렴대가 형성되었다. 남한강 하류 구간은 중층과 저층에서 저온수가 분포하여 상류방향 흐름이 나타나고 표층과 혼합되기 어려운 이층류 구조를 나타내었다.

The purpose of this study was to understand of water quality characteristics of lake Paldang, especially at a certain representative site, right in front of Paldang dam ($P_2$ site) and to propose the directions of water quality management of lake Paldang. Water characteristics at $P_2$ site was investigated by principle components analysis and the Pearson correlation coefficient analysis. Also, seasonality was identified by the Kruskal-Wallis test and long term trend of nutrients and chlorophyll-a was analyzed by seasonal decomposition method at lake Paldang statistically. The primary factor affecting on water quality at $P_2$ site was identified as nutrients, while physical parameters, such as rainfall and inflow rate were also important factors. At the result of linear regression analysis particulate organic phosphorus (POP) vs total phosphorus (TP) showed very high correlation of 0.78. TP loading was increased annually from 1995 to 2006. Chlorophyll-a and nutrients show seasonality at $P_2$ site. Long term trend of Chlorophyll-a was increased by increase of TP at lake Paldang.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to build COD regression models for the Han River and evaluate water quality. Methods: Water quality data sets for the dry season (as of January) during a four-year period (2012-2015) were collected from the database of the Han River automatic water quality monitoring stations. Statistical techniques, including combined genetic algorithm-multiple linear regression (GA-MLR) were used to build five-descriptor COD models. Multivariate statistical techniques such as principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis (CA) are useful tools for extracting meaningful information. Results: The $r^2$ of the best COD models provided significant high values (> 0.8) between 2012 and 2015. Total organic carbon (TOC) was a surrogate indicator for COD (as COD/TOC) with high reliability ($r^2=0.63$ in 2012, $r^2=0.75$ for 2013, $r^2=0.79$ for 2014 and $r^2=0.85$ for 2015). The ratios of COD/TOC were calculated as 2.08 in 2012, 1.79 in 2013, 1.52 and 1.45 in 2015, indicating that biodegradability in the water body of the Han River was being sustained, thereby further improving water quality. The BOD/COD ratio supported these findings. The cluster analysis revealed higher annual levels of microorganisms and phosphorous at stations along the Hangang-Seoul and Hantangang areas. Nevertheless, the overall water quality over the last four years showed an observable trend toward continuous improvement. These findings also suggest that non-point pollution control strategies should consider the influence of upstreams and downstreams to protect water quality in the Han River. Conclusion: This data analysis procedure provided an efficient and comprehensive tool to interpret complex water quality data matrices. Results from a trend analysis provided much important information about sources and parameters for Han River water quality management.

We investigated temporal changes of composition, habitat area, growth rate and elements content of hydrophytes at the artificial vegetation island (AVI) in Kyungan Stream within Lake Paldang. We also assessed nutrient removal rate through cutting off the emergent part of hydrophytes. The kinds of hydrophytes have increased from four species (P. australis, P. japonica, T. angustifolia and the Z. latifolia) at initial stage of installation to more than 29 species for 6-year operation. P. japonica was most dominant species at the AVI in 2006. The habitat area of have increased about 2.5 times compared to the initial planting area, occupying 63% of AVI's vegetation area. The incoming species of S. fluviatilis and B. frondosa have adapted successively and expanded habitat area in the AVI. The relative growth rate of P. japonica and P. australis was highest in spring sprouting period. Their hights and weights have increased until summer, by the time they were cutting off the emergent part. They started regrowth immediately after cutting and continued to grow until September and withered away in November. The carbon contents of P. japonica and P. australis have increased during growth phase, on the contrary, the nitrogen and phosphorus contents have decreased. By cutting off and removing the emergent part (leaves and branches) of hydrophytes twice from AVI, $17.6gN/m^2/y$ of nitrogen and $1.3gP/m^2/y$ of phosphorus was removed from AVI in 2006.

Long term monthly monitoring data showed that the water quality of streams flowing into Lake Paldang has been improved by various strategy for water. However, the effect of quality on Lake Paldang is still insufficient because of nonpoint source from watershed. In order to evaluate quantifying methods for pollution source and make a suggestion on improvements, Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) was constructed by using data set from the water quality and streamflow monitoring network in the Kyoungan watershed for Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs). Load duration curve (LDC) based on the result of the Kyoungan watershed SWMM indicated that the water quality criterion on $BOD_5$ was often exceeded in up-stream than down-stream. From flowrate-load correlation curve, SS load significantly increased as streamflow increases. 75.3% of streamflow and 62.1% of $BOD_5$ loads is discharged especially in the zone of high flows, but monitoring data set didn't provide proper information about the conditions and the patterns associated with storm events. Therefore, it is necessary to acquire representative data set for comparing hydrograph and pollutograph through monitoring experimental watershed and to establish methods for quantifying point and nonpoint source pollutant loads.

The focus of this study was to quantify the thermal stratification and analyze the relationship between the stratification structure and the tributaries to understand flow variations in the Paldang Reservoir. The vertical distribution of the temperature and density gradients, and the depth and thickness of the thermocline were quantitatively calculated using a lake physics tool (rLakeAnalyzer) and high-frequency monitoring data. Based on a density gradient of 0.2 kg/㎥/m, the thermocline was formed from mid-May to early-September 2019 and the other periods were weakly stratified or mixed. The thickness of the thermocline was developed until 4.7 m and the depth of the thermocline was formed at a depth of 3 - 6 m at the front of the Paldang Reservoir. During the formation of the thermocline, the Namhangang and Gyeongancheon tributaries with relatively high water temperature (low-density) flowed into the upper layer of the reservoir, and the Bukhangang tributary with low water temperature (high-density) mainly affected the lower layer of the reservoir. This is because the density currents were formed due to the difference in the water temperature of the tributaries. The findings of this study may be used for constructing high-frequency monitoring and quantitative data analyses of reservoirs.

An experiment to study the effect of temperature, light, and dredging on release of nutrients downstream from Gongjicheon in the Uiam reservoir was carried out in the laboratory using sediments from different depths. At various water temperatures, dissolved total nitrogen was not released, but the average nutrient flux of dissolved total phosphorus was increased (0.034 at $15^{\circ}C$, 0.005 at $20^{\circ}C$, 0.154 at $25^{\circ}C$, $0.592mg/m^2/d$ at $30^{\circ}C$). Dissolved total phosphorous was released in controlled darkness. In contrast, in controlled light, the concentrations of dissolved total phosphorous and dissolved total nitrogen in the overlying water steadily decreased during the study period (70 d), because they were continuously consumed by the growth of photosynthetic algae. However, there was no significant relationship between water nutrient concentration, nutrient release, and the depth of the sediment. We concluded that the dredging of sediment would not affect the nutrient release rate of the sediment, because there were no significant differences in the nutrient concentrations released from the sediment. When the sediment was removed from the surface to 20 cm in depth, the nutrients were not transferred to the water body, implying that the sediment removal had little effect on secondary pollution.
