지속적인 양식활동과 어장환경 보호를 위해서는 연안해역과 양식어종마다 각기 다른 연안생태계의 물질순환에 대한 연구가 필요하며, 양식장아래 퇴적물-수층 경계면의 침강 용출 플럭스에 관한 정확한 산정이 중요하다. 이에 관한 연구방법 중 벤틱 챔버를 이용한 현장배양법과 코아 채니를 이용한 실내배양실험법으로 퇴적물 산소요구량과 용존무기질소 용출 플럭스를 비교하여 보았다. 통영 어류 가두리양식장, 여수 어류 가두리양식장, 완도 전복양식장에 대하여, 퇴적물 산소요구량을 측정하여본 결과, 현장배양법은 116, 34, $31\;mmol\;O_2\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$, 실내배양법은 52, 17, $15\;mmol\;O_2\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$이었고, 용존무기질소 용출 플럭스의 경우, 현장배양법은 7.18, 7.98, $1.78\;mmol\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$, 실내배양법은 3.33, 3.74, $1.96\;mmol\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$로, 현장배양법이 실내배양법보다 약 2배 높게 나타났다. 본 연구는 각 양식장에 따른 물질 플럭스를 살펴봄으로서, 양식장아래 퇴적물-수층 경계면에 대한 두 가지 물질수지 계산 방법의 특성을 비교하였다.

Accelerated soil erosion is a worldwide problem because of its economic and environmental impacts. To effectively estimate soil erosion and to establish soil erosion management plans, many computer models have been developed and used. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) has been used in many countries, and input parameter data for RUSLE have been well established over the years. However, the RUSLE cannot be used to estimate the sediment yield for a watershed. Thus, the GIS-based Sediment Assessment Tool for Effective Erosion Control (SATEEC) was developed to estimate soil loss and sediment yield for any location within a watershed using the RUSLE and a spatially distributed sediment delivery ratio. SATEEC was enhanced in this study by developing new modules to:1) simulate the effects of sediment retention basins on the receiving water bodies, 2) prepare input parameters for the Web-based sediment decision support system using a GIS interface. This easy-to-operate SATEEC system can be used to identify areas vulnerable to soil loss and to develop efficient soil erosion management plans.

The main purpose of this study was to estimate the role of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) released from sediment and denitrification process in sediment on the nitrogen budget of Hiroshima Bay by means of collecting data on distributions and budgets of nitrogen and phosphorus in the bay, DIN fluxes across sediment-water interface and denitrification rates in the sediments of the same area. The TN : TP and DIN:DIP atomic ratios of the discharged freshwater were about 26 and 21, respectively. The standing stocks in the seawater of the TN : TP atomic ratio varied from 8 to 14 with an annual mean value of 11, while the DIN : DIP atomic ratio varied from 10 to 15 with an annual mean value of 12 in the bay. The residence time of nitrogen and phosphorus were estimated to be about 109 days and 200 days in the bay, respectively. The proportion of DIN released from sediment and denitrification rate to the loading of total nitrogen into Hiroshima Bay were $45\%\;(37\~82\%)\;and\;13\%(0.0\~37\%)$, respectively, and the amount of nitrogen through denitrification process was 6.5 times larger than the outflow of nitrogen from the bay. The results show that DIN released from sediment and denitrification process in sediment play important roles on the nitrogen budget in Hiroshima Bay.

In this study, we performed a sediment elution experiment to evaluate water quality in terms of phosphorus, as influenced by the dissolved oxygen consumed by sediments. Three separate model column treatments, namely, raw, calcined, and sonicated oyster shell powders, were used in this experiment. Essential phosphorus fractions were examined to verify their roles in nutrient release from sediment based on correlation analyses. When treated with calcined or sonicated oyster shell powder, the sediment-water interface became "less anaerobic," thereby producing conditions conducive to partial oxidation and activities of aerobic bacteria. Sediment Oxygen Demand (SOD) was found to be closely correlated with the growth of algae, which confirmed an intermittent input of organic biomass at the sediment surface. SOD was positively correlated with exchangeable and loosely adsorbed phosphorus and organic phosphorus, owing to the accumulation of unbound algal biomass-derived phosphates in sediment, whereas it was negatively correlated with ferric iron-bound phosphorus or calcium fluorapatite-bound phosphorus, which were present in the form of "insoluble" complexes, thereby facilitating the free migration of sulfate-reducing bacteria or limiting the release from complexes, depending on applied local conditions. PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis revealed that iron-reducing bacteria were the dominant species in control and non-calcined oyster shell columns, whereas certain sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were identified in the column treated with calcined oyster powder.

The phenomenon of sediment resuspension in rivers and lakes causes contaminants (heavy metals and nutrients) accumulated in the sediment to leach into the overlying water. As a result, it can lead to changes in toxic effects and eutrophication in the aquatic ecosystem. In this regard, it is important to quantitatively determine the amount of contaminants leached during sediment resuspension. In this study, methods for assessing the amount of released contaminants and the types of contaminants potentially released due to sediment resuspension were studied and summarized. Methods for assessing leaching can be divided into three groups based on the principle of causing resuspension: (i) the oscillating grid chamber method, (ii) the mechanical stirrer method, and (iii) the shaker method. It was confirmed that the types of contaminants that can potentially be released include heavy metals bound to sulfides, as well as exchangeable and labile forms of heavy metals and nutrients. To effectively manage stable aquatic ecosystems in the future, a simplified leaching test method is needed to assess in advance the risks (i.e., changes in toxic effects and eutrophication) that sediment resuspension may pose to aquatic ecosystems.

해수에서 퇴적층으로 향하는 우라늄 제거 과정과 플럭스를 연구하기 위해 1996년 10월 16일과 1997년 8월 25일에 천수만 입구지역에서 공극수와 해저상자(benthic chamber, BC) 내부시료를 채취하였다. 공극수로부터 추정된 우라늄 플럭스는 해수~퇴적물 경계면에서 0.112~0.566 mg/$m^2yr$ 이었으며, 해수에서 퇴적물로 제거되는 양상을 보였다. 황해 전체로는 $4.3{\sim}21.5{\times}10^7$ g/yr의 우라늄이 제거되며 이는 전지구적 제거 플럭스의 0.4~2.2%에 달하는 값이다. 같은 방법으로 추정된 영양영 플럭스는 암모니아성 질소 135.6 mmol/$m^2yr$, 질산성 질소 228.2 mmol/$m^2yr$, 인산염 36.8 mmol/$m^2yr$, 그리고 규산염 23.9 mmol/$m^2yr$로 공극수에서 저층 해수로 용출되고 있다. 공극수중 질산성 질소와 퇴적물 망간의 수직 분포도로부터 산화환원 경계층이 퇴적물 표충하 3~5 cm 깊이에 존재함을 추정할 수 있었다. BC를 이용한 인산염 플럭스는 28.5 mmol/$m^2yr$로서 공극수를 통한 추정값과 비슷하였다. 반면에 BC를 이용한 우라늄과 규산염 플럭스 추정치는 공극수에 의한 값보다 두 자릿수 정도로 큰 값을 나타내었다. 공극수내 농도 분포로부터 추정된 우라늄과 영양염의 플럭스 추정치가 BC를 통한 추정치보다 더욱 신뢰도가 높다고 판단된다.

Successful sediment management at the watershed scale requires an understanding of the erosion, transport and sedimentation processes at the specific site scale. However, studies on the sediment runoff characteristics in a small uppermost watershed, which serves as a sediment supply function, are very rare. Therefore, this study attempted to investigate the fluctuations in major sediment supply areas and sediment runoff in the uppermost mountain small watershed, and for this purpose, ArcSWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tools with GIS interface) was applied to the Woldong reservoir catchment located in Gosam-myeon, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do. The model results were manually calibrated using the monitoring data of the Woldong reservoir sedimentation rate from 2005 to 2007. It was estimated that annual average of 34.4 tons/year of sediment was discharged from the Woldong reservoir basin. This estimate almost coincided with the monitoring data of the Woldong reservoir during the low flow period but tended to be somewhat underestimated during the high flow period. Although the SWAT model does not fully reflect the erosion process of gully and in-channel, this underestimation is probably due to the spatial connectivity of sediment transport and the storage and reactivation of the sediment being transported. Most of the forested hillslopes with a well-developed organic horizon were evaluated as having a low risk of erosion, while the places with the highest risk of erosion were predicted to be distributed in the logged area with some weeds or shrubs (classified as pasture) with relatively steeper slopes, and in the bare land. The results of this study are expected to be useful in developing strategies for sediment control and reservoir management.

In order to investigate the effects of intertidal sediments on the nutrient cycle in coastal environments, the benthic fluxes of ammonium, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, and silicate at two stations on the intertidal flat of Keunso Bay were determined during each season. The efflux of ammonium was observed at S1 and resulted from the diffusion of remineralized ammonium and acceleration caused by the bioirrigation of macrofauna. The influx of ammonium at S2 was probably due to nitrification in the water column. The influx of nitrate was observed at both stations during all seasons, indicating that the nitrate in the pore water was removed by denitrification. Vigorous bioirrigation led to the efflux of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) at S1, whereas the influx of DIN at S2 was predominantly caused by denitrification. Contrary to the diffusive and bio-irrigated release of remineralized phosphate from the sediment at S1, the influx of phosphate was observed at S2, which may be attributable to adsorption onto iron oxides in the aerobic sediment layer. Silicate, which is produced by the dissolution of siliceous material, was mostly released from the sediment by molecular diffusion and bioirrigation. However, the influx of silicate was observed at S2 during spring and winter, which was ascribed to adsorption by particulate matter or assimilation by benthic microphytes. The annual fluxes of DIN were 328 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S1 and -435 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S2. The annual fluxes of phosphate were negative at both sites (-2.8 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S1 and -28.9 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S2), whereas the annual fluxes of silicate were positive at both sites (843 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S1 and 243 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S2).
