국내 신규댐 건설에 있어, 침수토양의 용출에 의한 호내 수질영향에 대해서는 현재까지 정량화된 사례는 찾기 어려우며, 댐 담수 초기에 증가되는 오염원에 대한 정확한 조사자료의 부족으로 담수이후의 수질변화에 대한 정확한 예측이 어려운 실정이다. 따라서 외부 오염부하의 강우시 유입과 퇴적물로부터의 영양염용출 등의 내부 오염부하가 함께 고려된 수질예측기법의 적용이 필요하다. 수몰지 토양 및 호내로부터의 내부부하에 있어서는 퇴적물 내의 다량 존재하는 오염물이 재용출 되거나 퇴적물 내의 화학적 생물학적 반응이 하천 수질에 악영향을 미치게 된다. 대부분 수몰지토양에서 수층으로 용출되는 유기물의 양은 수층에서 퇴적물로 흡수 또는 침강 되는 것보다 많은 경우도 있으며, 오염된 수계에서는 내부 부하량이 과다할 경우 수질 개선을 어렵게 하는 요인이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2016년 시험담수 예정지인 신규댐 수몰지를 대상으로 토양에 포함된 유기물이 자연상태에서 수체로 용출되는 특성을 분석하여 수질에 미치는 영향을 검토하고자 한다. 댐 수몰지의 토양 시료는 시험담수전 2016년 7월, 토지이용 유형별로 5개지점(논, 밭, 대지, 임야, 하천)에서 시료를 채집하여 총 36일간 용출실험을 실시하였으며, 수층내 용존산소 조건을 호기성 조건과 혐기성 조건으로 나누어 실험하였다. 수질분석은 COD, T-N, T-P, $PO_4-P$등 9개 항목에 대해 실험기간 중 13회 실시하였다. 토양별 점유면적 대비 일 용출량은(kg/day) COD 63 kg/day, T-N 93.6 kg/day, T-P 5.8 kg/day, $PO_4-P$ 4.6 kg/day 였으며, 수몰지 내 토지이용현황별 오염원 기여율은 임야, 밭, 하천, 논, 대지 순 이었다. 본 실험은 수몰지토양의 순수용출량만을 담수개시~36일간 측정한 결과로서 실제 저수지환경에서는 실험값보다 낮을 것으로 판단되며, 수중 수질환경 변화 및 퇴적물의 퇴적 등으로 인하여 원토양으로부터의 용출로 인한 수질에의 영향은 시간의 경과와 함께 변화 또는 감소될 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 본 실험결과는 담수초기의 영향으로 국한하여 해석하는 것이 바람직하며, 보다 장기적인 영향파악을 위해서는 담수 후의 퇴적물의 거동(퇴적현황) 파악 및 담수 후 퇴적물의 장기용출실험을 통한 용출량 검토가 필요하다.

To assess pollutant loads in Nakdong river from highland agriculture in Kyungbuk province we. analyzed water qualities such as BOD, COD, T-N, T-P and SS in year 2005. BOD values in rainy period (June and July) were relatively higher than those in dry period, and those in 4 sites among 17 sites ranged from 10.71-19.25 mg/L which exceeded water criteria (8 mg/L) for agricultural use. COD values showed similar trends like BOD values. These trends might be caused by outflow of nutrients applied in agricultural lands. T-N content ranged from 0.1 to 14 mg/L. Those in lower reaches of stream were greater in those in upper stream. Compared to T-N contents during non-farming season, T-N content in farming season were higher. These phenomenon could be due to continuous input of nutrients from small watercourses. Averaged T-P content in lower stream during farming season was 0.4 mg/L, which was eight times higher than the limiting level for algae occurrence (0.05 mg/L). BOD, T-P, T-N loads from alpine agricultural practices were 12.25 $kg/km^2{\cdot}day$, 0.55 $kg/km^2{\cdot}day$ and 32.35 $kg/km^2{\cdot}day$, respectively. These values were greater than those from forestry. Therefore, Best management Practices (BMP) for alpine agricultural field are needed to reduce pollutant loads in Nakdong river.

본 논문에서는 한강본류 및 지천의 수질조사와 더불어 오염총량관리지침을 이용하여 오염부하량을 산정하였다. 한강은 오염총량규제가 도입되었지만 주로 수질측정된 농도위주로 시행되고 있으며 수질 관리를 위한 모니터링도 수질농도 측정에 중점을 두고 있다. 그러나 하천수질은 사용용도에 따라 배출 되는 유출수에 따라 변화되며 지역의 특성에 따라 수질의 변화가 나타나기 때문에 수질평가는 오염농도만으로 평가하기보단 하수의 배출지역의 특성을 고려해야 한다. 본 유역의 수질조사는 한강 본류 및 지천 구분되며 국립환경과학원의 자료를 활용하여 조사하였다. 오염부하량의 경우 국립환경연구원의 '오염총량관리 계획수집지침전부 개정고시(2006-69호)'를 활용하여 지역의 배출특성에 따라 산정하였다. 수질조사 결과 한강 본류의 수질은 BOD 1.57mg/L, T-N 2.61mg/L, T-P 0.05mg/L로 나타났으며 하류지역은 BOD 4.46mg/L, T-N 7.32mg/L, T-P 0.42mg/L로 나타났다. 탄천의 경우 탄천의 경우 탄천 상류의 BOD 평균값은 25.32mg/L, T-N 20.23mg/L, T-P 1.42mg/L이며 탄천의 하류 지점의 BOD 평균값은 4.68mg/L, T-N 11.45mg/L, T-P 0.86mg/L로 나타났다. 한강수계의 오염부하량은 생활계 발생부하량이 가장 높게 산정되었으며 유달부하량의 경우 유달율로 판단하였을 때 왕숙천과 중랑천유역에서 오염도가 크게 미치는 것을 알 수 있다.

This study was performed to investigate the distribution and decomposition characteristics of organic matter in stream water and sewage effluent located in Gwangju. Average of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to total organic carbon (TOC) ratio was approximately 73.9% in the Youngsan river system. The concentration of refractory dossolved carbon (RDOC) was 3.7 mg/L corresponding to 80.9% of the DOC. The ratio of recalcitrant organic carbon was relatively higher than that of biodegradable organic carbon in stream. Oxidation efficiencies in the stream were 45.0% for BOD, 63.0% for $COD_{Mn}$ and 106.5% for CODcr. In case of sewage effluent was 33.6%, 65.7% and 136.1% respectively. Mean decomposition rate ($K_d$) of Youngsan river mainstream, its tributary sites and sewage effluent were about $0.042\;day^{-1}$, $0.043\;day^{-1}$ and $0.028\;day^{-1}$, respectively and the difference was not significant between the mainstream and its tributary sites (t-test, p>0.05). $K_d$ of the sewage effluent was lower than that of stream water.

하천의 수질은 시${\cdot}$공간적으로 지속적인 변화를 보이기 때문에 효과적인 수질관리를 위해서는 연속적인 하천수질 측정과 분석이 요구된다. 또한 유량과 수질측정이 동일시각에 이루어져야 하려 수질측정 지점에서의 보다 정확한 유량산정이 요구된다. 그러나 T/M 수위관측소와 수질자동측정망 지점이 원거리에 위치하여 수질자동측정망 지점에서 정확한 실시간 유량자료를 획득하기에 어려운 지점이 많다. 따라서 연구에서는 신경망 모형을 적용하여 미계측 지점에서의 유출량을 예측하고 강우-유출 모형인 WMS 모형에 의한 계산값과 비교하였으며 미계측 지점에서의 유출예측 가능성을 검토하였다.

This study assessed the impacts of land use types on water quality in the tributary of the Yeongsan river basin. Temporal changes in water quality parameters (BOD, COD, TOC, T-P, T-N, SS) were investigated. 13 water sampling sites were selected; they were then collected and analyzed according to the standard method. The results showed that water quality parameters of the study sites ranged as follows : BOD, from 0.3 to $21.9mg\;L^{-1}$ (mean $3.3mg\;L^{-1}$); COD, from 1.0 to $38.0mg\;L^{-1}$ ($6.4mg\;L^{-1}$); TOC, from 0.6 to $20.0mg\;L^{-1}$ ($4.5mg\;L^{-1}$); T-P, from 0.009 to $1.973mg\;L^{-1}$ ($0.144mg\;L^{-1}$); T-N, from 0.6 to $17.1mg\;L^{-1}$ (mean $3.5mg\;L^{-1}$); SS, from 0.3 to $292.0mg\;L^{-1}$ ($20.3mg\;L^{-1}$). Generally, the paddy and upland dominated region had high concentrations of water quality parameters, whereas the forest dominated region had low concentrations. In addition, water quality parameters were positively correlated with paddy and upland, whereas the parameters were negatively correlated with forest. The result implies that paddy and upland are the dominant factors leading to stream pollution in the study sites, while a higher percentage of forest area contributes to improved water quality. Therefore, it is important to manage paddy and upland in order achieve efficient management of water quality.

Various ecosystem carry out fundamental function of material circulation and energy flow through interrelationship with many environmental factors. Therefore, it is crucial to scientifically understand the value of nature to deduce correlation between environmental factor and change of ecosystem function. In this study, we determined the accumulated ecosystem carbon and characteristics of soil respiration on grassland vegetation in Namahangang basin in Namhangang Basin. It was found that the rate of soil respiration was highly correlated with the soil temperature in all communities. The measured soil respiration rates were $1,539mgCO_2\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$, $1,200mgCO_2\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$, $1,215mgCO_2\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$ in Miscanthus sacchariflorus, Phragmites japonica, Salix koreensis communities, respectively. Also, carbon quantities accumulated in litter and soil layers were $40.6tCha^{-1}$ (1.9+38.7), $46.9tCha^{-1}$ (43.0+3.9), $31.2tCha^{-1}$ (28.9+2.3) in M. sacchariflorus, P. japonica, S. koreensis communities, respectively.

The objective of this study is to suggest the water quality criteria of total nitrogen in order to efficiently manage the nutrient pollution in the stream. For this, correlations between water quality parameters were examined using the water quality data collected from the water quality monitoring network in the four rivers between 2003 and 2012. T-N showed positive correlations with T-P (0.636), COD (0.577), BOD (0.574), TOC (0.440), and SS (0.367). The statistical analysis including percentile analysis for the T-N and T-P concentrations was utilized to develop the water quality criteria of T-N. The feasibility of the suggested water quality criteria was evaluated by calculating the achievement rate to water quality target at the representative points in mid-watershed, then the draft water quality standard of T-N was suggested. The suggested water quality standard of T-N in the stream may be used to efficiently control the nutrient pollution in the public water body.

Fecal coliform bacteria is one of the most common cause of water quality impairments in Virginia, USA. Instream concentrations of fecal coliform (FC) bacteria were routinely monitored to assess surface water quality of the Polecat Creek watershed. Median concentration in water samples collected from 1995 to 2000 ranged from 80 cfu/100 mL to t 70 cfu/100 mL, while geometric mean concentrations ranged from 81 cfu/100 mL to 141 cfu/100 mL. The dilution and deposition by Lake Caroline may cause to lower FC concentration at monitoring site QPB, as compared FC concentration at QPD. Higher in-stream FC concentration occurred during the summer period(June-August), and lower concentration typically occurred during the winter period (December-February). This is due to more cattle in streams, and greater survival and regrowth of FC bacteria under warmer condition. The findings of this study can be helpful in planning the water quality monitoring program to avoid the inaccurate assessment of water quality due to the timing of sample collection.

The red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans) is the one of the most popular pets, and the most commonly traded species in the world. It is designated as an ecosystem disturbance species that has been managed in South Korea. To date, no reports of natural or anthropogenic migration and spreading of T. s. elegans in South Korea are available. In the present study, we estimated the expected route and the movable path of one female T. s. elegans found in Namsan-myun, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. Based on the movable path, the potential destination of the female turtle was estimated to be about 282 m and 468 m away. Therefore, the moving distance of the red-eared slider to the nearest water system will be at least 606 m and at most 792 m. Our results provide the first evidence about the natural migration and spreading of exotic turtles. This study can serve as a basis for the management and countermeasures against the introduced of T. s. elegans and other exotic species in South Korea.
