The purpose of this study is to present the model of ecological restoration through analysis on the condition of hydrach succession process in brackish water lake. To this study, we investigate and research the present condition of brackish water lake in South Korea. Most brackish water lake in South Korea have characteristics that is come into being malignant hydrach succession. Many lakes were reclaimed to increase foodstuff production. And river conservation work seperate lakes from the ocean. In a embryological view, most lakes based on the brackish water lakes, But present lakes show many different types such as a fresh water lake, a salt lake, a brackish water lake, a swamp, and a marshland. As a result, brackish water lakes have greatly damaged by diverse artificial interventions to promote people's activities. Therefore, in order to manage brackish water lakes systematically, criteria of lake preservation must be coincide with the present conditions of hydrach succession in each lake.

Fish community of eight lagoons in the east seashore, Korea were investigated from 2007 to 2008. Total 66 species caught during the period were belonged to 34 families, and total biomass was 2,024.8 kg. Also, similarity analysis results of each lagoon were divided three major groups. On the other hand, result of a comparison of the composition ratio of freshwater fish, brackish water fish, and seawater fish which is divided into separate each age data of previous studies has emerged in this study, since the 1990's, freshwater fish is reduced, seawater fish and increase, some changes in the fish community had changed dynamically in the lagoon. These changes considered that against the natural hydrach succession will change to freshwater lake from brackish water lake. Therefore, we considered to ecological characteristics of lagoon and process of hydrach succession when conservation, management, and restoration of the lagoons.
