  • Carbon isotopic composition of a stream (Odaecheon Stream) monitored over 7 months from July 2004 to January 2005 in Gangweon Province ranges from -9.24 to -4.69‰. Strong negative correlation between ${\delta}^{13}C_{DIC}$ and water temperature suggests that temperature is a dominant factor controlling ${\delta}^{13}C_{DIC}$ in the Odaecheon Stream. The variation pattern of ${\delta}^{13}C_{DIC}$ was thought to be caused by fractionation of C isotope between stream water and atmosphere and more fractionation at reduced temperature. More fractionation of C isotope between stream water and atmosphere at reduced temperature resulted in increase of ${\delta}^{13}C_{DIC}$ of stream water in winter compared to summer. Photosynthesis and respiration of aqueous biota seem to affect little in ${\delta}^{13}C_{DIC}$ as indicated by little variation of dissolved oxygen and reverse variation pattern of Eh in the stream and scarce aqueous biota in stream water. pH seems to be controlled by $CO_2{2}$ exchange between stream water and atmosphere. During summer more $CO_2{2}$ exchange between stream water and atmosphere resulted in decrease in pH value.

  • 본 연구는 제주도 지역에서 처음 발견된 점개구리밥의 분포와 서식생물상에 대한 점개구리밥의 위해성을 평가하기 위해, 제주도 내 43개 습지 및 하천에서 환경요인과 서식생물상을 조사하였다. 점개구리밥은 43개 중 총 18개 조사지역에서 출현이 확인되었으며, 이들 지역에서는 점개구리밥 외 수생식물의 생물량은 낮은 편이었다. 점개구리밥 등 수생식물과 환경요인에 대한 서식생물상의 영향을 분석하기 위해 SOM(Self-Organizing Map)을 활용한 패턴분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 동물플랑크톤 등 서식생물상은 환경요인보다는 수생식물의 생물량에 대한 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 특히 점개구리밥의 생물량은 부착성 종과 밀접하게 관련되는 것으로 분석되었다. 제주도 내 하천 및 습지는 수원이 일정하지 않고 수위변화가 급격하여 수생식물의 현존량이 적은 점을 감안하면, 제주도 지역의 교란 특성에 비교적 강한 점개구리밥은 서식생물상(동물플랑크톤 등)에게 서식처로서 중요하게 적용될 것으로 판단된다. 더욱이, 점개구리밥의 점유 공간 내 유기물이 서식동물상의 먹이원으로 활용되는 점 등을 볼 때 점개구리밥은 서식처인 동시에 먹이터로의 역할을 수행하고 있는 것으로 보인다. 비록 점개구리밥의 밀생이 그늘 효과 등으로 일부 수생식물의 성장과 발달에 영향을 미치지만, 이것은 부유식물이 수표면에 우점하는 특성 때문이며, 점개구리밥의 위해성이라 판단하기는 어렵다. 결론적으로 점개구리밥은 제주도 지역 내 대부분의 수계에서 확산 및 정착된 것으로 조사되었으며, 서식생물상 및 수중 환경 내 미치는 영향은 적은 것으로 사료된다. 추후 제주도 지역 외 내륙에서의 점개구리밥 분포 및 확산에 대한 모니터링을 수행할 필요가 있다고 보여진다.

  • This review summarizes the history of freshwater zooplankton research in Korean Society of Limnology and necessary future topics that are remain poorly investigated in South Korea based on main research topics of published articles focusing on lakes, reservoirs, rivers and wetland ecosystems. In Korea, a total 450 freshwater zooplankton species have been reported (85 species of cladocera, ca. 230 species of rotifera since 1939, and 138 species of copepoda), and they cover 10% of total zooplankton species list. In the present paper, we provide recent species list of zooplankton found in Korea and their taxonomic keys. Over periods of 45 years, there are 25 published papers for zooplankton biota in lentic ecosystems in Korean Journal of Ecology and Environment (KJEE). The ecology of zooplankton communities in rivers has focused on the mechanisms involved in regulating their abundance, diversity and spatio-temporal patterns of genus Bosmina and rotifers (genus Brachionus and Keratella) that are most frequently found from Korea. On the other hand, the studies on zooplankton in wetland has focused on Alona, Chydorus and Ceriodaphnia with special emphasis on their relationships with aquatic macrophytes. Even though studies on the freshwater ecosystem in Korea have a long history, a few of studies on zooplankton biota were conducted at rice paddy, Dumbeong and wetlands. During the last two decades, experimental advances in freshwater zooplankton ecology and understanding of structure and function of this biota were made from a series of articles mainly in journal of KJEE. For future studies, quantitative, experimental and interdisciplinary approaches would be key words to understand zooplankton ecology and their roles in aquatic ecosystems under changing environments, and we have suggested necessary zooplankton research fields and future directions.

  • 농촌배수처리용 자연습지내의 생물상 및 유기물 제거효율을 조사하였다. 습지내에서 출현한 수생식물의 종조성은 13과 22종으로 나타났으며, 현존량이 가장 많은 종은 갈대로 약 35%, 고마리, 애기부들, 가막사리 및 돌피가 12~19%의 고른 분포를 보였으며, 나머지가 1%를 차지하였다. 습지 내에서 출현한 대형무척추동물은 복족강, 빈모강, 거머리강, 거미강, 갑각강, 곤충강이 조사되었으며, 그 중에서 곤충강이 7목 18과로 나타났다. 채집된 개체수로는 곤충류가 76%, 비곤충류가 24%로 곤충류의 개체수가 현저히 많았다. 이중 깔따구류(Chironomidae)는 58%를, 빈모류는 19%를 차지하였다. 조사된 곤충류의 과(family)수는 파리목에서 7과로 가장 많았다. 많은 모기와 깔따구의 유생이 발견된 것으로 보아 습지가 모기의 좋은 서식처를 제공하는 것으로 사료된다. 습지로 유입되는 유입수 BOD및 DOC 농도는 각각 1.8~13.4 mgO$_2$/l, 2.6~22.8mgC/1의 큰 변이 폭을 보였으며, 습지 내에서 수생식물에 의한 연순생산력은 3,350 kg dry wt./yr로 나타났다. 습지에 의한 BOD 제거효율은 약 50%로 나타났으나, DOC는 거의 제거되지 않았다. DOC의 제거효율이 낮은 이유는 습지내 수생식물의 고사체 분해에 의해 난분해성 DOC가 생성되기 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

  • The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of heavy metal concentrations in the blood and urine of the general population. This research had been conducted from April to December 2008, studying 545 residents of Daejeon and Chungcheong Province. Through the concentrations of heavy metals(Pb, Cd, Hg, As, Mn) in the biota samples and questionnaires, the residents heavy metal exposure level and the influential factors according to personal characteristics or lifestyle were evaluated. As to the heavy metal concentration in the blood and urine of the comparing region, were As and Mn statistically significant(p<0.01, p<0.05). Blood lead and urinary mercury concentrations were higher in males than females. The heavy metal concentration for each age group increased blood mercury. The concentration of all heavy metals were higher in the drinkers than in the non-drinkers. Blood lead and mercury concentrations were higher in the smokers than in the non-smokers, but the urinary cadmium, arsenic and blood manganese was higher in the non-smokers than in the smokers. As to the blood lead and urinary cadmium concentration according to the food preference fish showed high concentration. To clarify the factors affecting the heavy metal concentration in biota among subjects multiple regression analysis was conducted. As a results, it turned out that as to lead content in blood, sex, age and smoking have influence on the subjects with explanatory adequacy of 14.0 %. These results demonstrated that the factors affected the concentrations of heavy metals in blood and urine. The results of this study could be used as the foundational data for setting the health risk assessment.

  • This study was performed to analyze the improvement of soil physical property and soil biota characteristics through cultivation of green manure crops for a one-year period before creation of a tea plantation as follows. The study revealed that the contents of available phosphate tended to decrease after sod-culture by green manure cultivation and open-pollination, when compared to the level before cultivation. The ratio soil porosity increased by approximately 30% when Crotalaria juncea and Sorghum bicolar L. Moench were cultivated, while the soil bacteria and fungi also increased. In a research on microfauna using a pit fall trap, the population number of the microfauna was 174 of 27 species in the plot of open-pollinated sod-culture and no organic matter application, and 268 of 26 species in the plot of Sorghum bicolar L. Moench. Consequently, the culturing tool of Crotalaria juncea recorded the highest level of species diversity at 2.5, the evenness index at 3.7 and richness at 4.6, with the lowest level of a dominance index. The ecological quotient of microfauna was 0.76 in the plot of Sorghum bicolar L. Moench, and 0.63 in the plot of Crotalaria juncea.

  • We investigated temporal changes of growth of hydrophytes, aquatic biota and absorption of nutrient depending on planting mat type (synthetic fiber, coconut fiber) of artificial vegetation island (AVI) through pilot test using AVI miniatures in Kyungan Stream area of Lake Paldang. There were not significant differences of the water quality parameters (DO, pH, conductivity, turbidity, temperature), phytoplankton and zooplankton abundance among AVI miniatures and control station. The benthic macroinvertebrates showed most individual numbers in the miniature which was made by synthetic fiber and planted with Phragmites australis. The average and maximum height of hydrophytes in AVI miniatures was similar except one miniature where Phragmites australis was planted in synthetic fiber mat and grew more slowly. The adsorbed amount of nutrients and microbes in coconut fiber mat were larger than those in synthetic fiber mat regardless of trophic state of installed waterbody. The continuous increase of adsorbed amount of nutrients and microbes of coconut fiber mat for 8 months in an oligotrophic lake indicates that coconut fiber mat is suitable for the planting mat of AVI in an oligotrophic lake where nutrients are limited for growth of hydrophytes.
