According to the spatial movements of the Nak-dong river watershed, the changes in heavy metal concentrations were simulated by WASP7.3. The risk assessment was performed using the predicted data of WASP7.3. The target heavy metal was manganese (Mn). In the simulated manganese data of WASP7.3, the average concentration by regions was from 0.03 mg/L to 0.07 mg/L. It is lower than drinking water standard in korea. The risk assessment was presented that it was high at the junction of Nak-dong river and Kumho river. It was influenced by the discharge of industrial complexes and large cities which were located in the junction. In comparison of drinking water standard and predicted data of WASP7.3 risk assessment, whole watershed was also low level at predicted data. However, to keep the similar risk value ($10^{-7}$) in adults and children anywhere, it requires the additional treatment of the point source discharges. It was also reflected by regions. Through this study, it was possible to evaluate heavy metal influence in unattainable monitoring regions and to estimate heavy metal addition and reduction by locations. Therefore, the outcomes of WASP7.3 can connect with the risk assessment and it can evaluate the safety of human by regions.

낙동강 하류지점인 물금은 2003년${\sim}$2005년의 대부분이 부영양화의 기준을 넘고 있다. 하구둑 건설이후, 담수화 된 하구둑 상부에서는 부영양화가 가속화되었다. 수질의 악화는 물론 강 생태계의 구조와 기능의 변화까지 초래되었다. 지난 $7{\sim}8$년 간 낙동강 하류 지역은 갈수기 식물성 플랑크톤 군집의 대거 번성으로 인한 부영양화로 연중 심각한 수질 오염문제를 야기하고 있다. 본 연구는 WASP 7.2 모형과 예측된 동물성플랑크톤을 이용하여 낙동강 유역의 하류 지역인 물금의 부영양화를 예측하는 것이다. 2005년의 관측값을 초기조건으로 고정하고 DO, $NO_3$-N, $PO_4$-P, 기상청에서 예보되는 기온을 사용하여 동물성 플랑크톤을 신경망 모형으로 예측한 뒤, 수온 대신 기상청의 기온을 입력하여 $1{\sim}3$일 후의 단기 수질을 예측하였다. 부영양화 예측결과와 2005년의 월별 수질 관측값을 통계량을 이용하여 분석하였다. $1{\sim}3$일 후의 예측결과 수질항목 중 부영양화의 기준이 되는 클로로필-a, 총 질소, 총 인의 경우는 예측기간 모두 관측값에 적합하게 모의되었다. WASP 7.2 모형의 수질항목 관측자료를 초기값으로 입력하고, 예측된 동물성 플랑크톤의 개체수와 기상청에서 예보되는 기온을 사용한 수질모의는 낙동강의 단기 수질예측에 유의한 의미가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

When the water quality modelling is done with a manual calibration, it is possible that the researcher's opinion may affect the objectivity of the research. Hence, the role of the automatic calibration is highly important. This research applies a technique to automatically calibrate the water quality parameters by implementing an optimization method. This involves estimating the optimum water quality parameters targeting influential parameters towards the lake's BOD, DO, Phosphorus, Nitrogen and Phytoplankton. To accurately calculate the water temperature and hydraulic characteristics of a deep, stratifying lake, EFDC, a 3-dimensional hydraulic model which can be linked to the WASP7 was applied. With EFDC, the segment of the lake is formed and utilized as an input data of the WASP7. For the calibration of the water quality parameters of the WASP7, an influence coefficient algorithm and a genetic algorithm was applied. Of the five water quality variables for calibration, the normalized residuals of the observed and calculated values of DO, TN, CBOD were relatively small and the three water quality variables were calibrated properly. Yet the accuracy of the calibration of TP and Chl-a was relatively low.

This study reports the serial use of a 3-D hydrodynamic model, EFDC-Hydro and a dynamic water quality model WASP7.2 that are maintained by USEPA. The 48 km section of the Geum River downstream between Daechung Dam and Gongju was selected as a sample study site. Topographical information was used to accurately represent morphology of the study site and boundary conditions were derived from governmental databases including WAMIS by Ministry of Land and Ocean and WEIS by Ministry of Environment. EFDC-Hydro was successfully calibrated for observed water level and WASP was calibrated using monthly observed water quality data obtained from the above sources. It was found that the current water quality target of BOD for the Geum River-H point could not be met on monthly basis though every other tributary of the area would meet its own water quality target as assigned in Korean TMDL. This study proposed the new target BOD water quality for the Gabcheon and Mihocheon as 4.3 and 3.6 mg/l, respectively so that the Geum River-H point can meet the target. When Sejong City is constructed, it is estimated that effluent discharge limit of BOD must be less than 4.5 mg/l to meet water quality of the point. This study shows that it is possible to carry out more precise modeling considering both water movement and water kinetics by using EFDC and WASP simultaneously.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of EFDC hydrodynamic result on the WASP7.3 water quality modeling result in accordance with the change of number of grid for the dam reservoir to be constructed. The simulated flow and BOD, T-N and T-P loads by the HSPF watershed model was used for boundary conditions and the hydrodynamic modeling results was linked with WASP model to predict future water quality after dam construction. The scenarios for EFDC modeling were composed of Scenario 1(141 grid cells) and Scenario 2(568 grid cells). The results of Scenario 2 showed that BOD, T-N, T-P and Chl-a concentrations were decreased 0.073mg/L(8.5%), 0.032mg/L(2.6%), 0.003mg/L(6.8%), 0.644mg/L(4.2%) compared with those of Scenario 1, respectively. As number of grid cell increased, water quality concentrations were decreased and also it caused the longer running time. Therefore, this study suggests that the consideration of the geometry of water body is more important than the number of grid cells for the prediction of water quality of a dam reservoir in EIA.

This study aims to test the feasibility of combined use of EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) hydrodynamic model and WASP7.3 (Water Quality Analysis Program) model to improve accuracy of water quality predictions of the Yongdam Lake, Korea. The orthogonal curvilinear grid system was used for EFDC model to represent riverine shape of the study area. Relationship between volume, surface and elevation results were checked to verify if the grid system represents morphology of the lake properly. Monthly average boundary water quality conditions were estimated using the monthly monitored water quality data from Korean Ministry of Environment DB system. Monthly tributary flow rates were back-routed using dam discharge data and allocated in proportion to each basin area as direct measurements were not available. The optimum number of grid system was determined to be 372 horizontal cells and 10 vertical layers of the site for 1 year simulation of hydrodynamics and water quality out of iterative trials. Monthly observed BOD, TN, TP and Chl-a concentrations inside the lake were used for calibration of WASP7.3 model. This study shows that EFDC and WASP can be used in series successfully to improve accuracy in water quality modeling. However, it was observed that the amount of data to develop inflow water quality and flow rate boundary conditions and water quality data inside lake for calibration were not enough for accurate modeling. It is suggested that object-oriented data collection systems would be necessary to ensure accuracy of EFDC-WASP model application and thus for efficient lake water quality management strategy development.

The chestnut gall wasp, Dryocosmus kuriphilus $Y^{ASUMATSU}$, has been recently distributed and chestnut trees have teen seriously damaged by this insects in Korea. However, this insect pest has not been investigated in Korea. This paper gives an account of field and Laboratory observations on the seasonal occurrence and the life history of the chestnut gall wasp, and the damage of the chestnut trees by. its insects. This study was carried out at Chungchungpukdo, Kangwon-do and Kyungi-do in Korea, from 1961 to 1963, inclusive. 1. The Chestnut gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus $Y^{ASUMATSU}$) has one generathion per year and females are only known. 2. The adult wasps were observed from late June to late July with peak of wasp emergence about early and middle July. Most of new adult wasps were coming out from, the galls in the morning rather than the afternoon. 3. Each wasp produced auerage 198.5 eggs and about 4.89 eggs was observed in each bud of the chestnut tree. 4, The egg period of wasps was about 30 days and they were hatching from July to August. 5. The larval period of wasps were from middle of August to middle of next June and pupation took places about early June to middle of July. 6. The adult wasps were ovipositing into the buds and from early May next year, galls were growing. They caused stunting of growth and no fruiting or dying of the chestnut tries. 7. The first observation of the wasp was made at Chaechun of Chungchung-pukdo in 1958. Up to 1963 this insects are distributed in Kangwon-do, Kyunggi-do, north part of Chungchung-pukdo and north part of Kyungsangpukdo

본 연구에서는 금강의 하류부의 시간적 공간적 수질변화를 자세하게 분석하기 위하여 3차원 수리동역학 모델인 EFDC 와 비정상상태 수질모델인 WASP 7.2와 를 연계 적용하였다. 본 연구의 대상 구간은 금강하류 부중 대청댐 조절지 방류구 지점부터 공주의 정안천 유입 직전까지 총 48km의 구간이다. 하천의 수심별 수질은 일정하다고 가정하였으나 폭방향의 수질은 좌 중 우로 3개의 소구간으로 나누고 하천의 흐름 방향으로 나누어 전체적으로는 2차원적으로 구분하였다. 하천의 바닥 형상을 이용하여 모델 격자를 구성하였으며 수리모델은 건교부의 수위자료를 이용하여 보정하였고 수질자료는 환경부의 수질측정망 자료를 이용하여 보정하였다. 2차원 수리동역학-수질 연계모델링 결과, 대전 갑천이 유입되고 난 후의 청원지점에서 그리고 청주지역의 영향을 포함하는 미호천이 유입되고 난 연기 지점 그리고 본 연구의 최하류인 공주지점에서는 하천의 폭 방향으로 상당한 수질 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 이는 대전 갑천 또는 청주 미호천 등이 유입된 이후 효과적으로 혼합되지 않는다는 것을 의미한다. 이는 해당지역의 수질시료 채취 위치에 따라 수질에 현격한 차이가 있을 수 있다는 것을 나타내며, 현재 환경부 수동측정망의 시료채취 방법을 고려하여 볼때 하천수질의 대표성을 나타낼 수 있는가 하는 문제의 차원에서 매우 심각하게 받아들여져야 할 것으로 생각된다. 한편, 현재 우리나라에서 시행되고 있는 오염총량관리제나 대부분의 환경영향평가에서는 하천의 폭 방향의 수질 차이에 대한 고려가 전무하며 이에 대한 전면적인 재검토가 시급하다고 판단된다.

하천의 수질모의를 위해서는 정상상태 모델인 QUAL2E 가 널리 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 우리나라는 기후 특성상 하절기에 강우가 집중되고 경우에 따라서는 댐등에 의해 장기간 수류의 지체현상이 발생하므로 지역 및 시기에 따라 발생하는 수질 문제가 서로 다를 수 있다. 따라서 우리나라의 대부분의 수체에서는 시간에 따라 모의를 할 수 있는 비정상 상태의 수질모델이 적용되어야 할 필요가 종종 발생한다. 미국공병단에서 개발된 CE-QUAL-W2 모델은 2차원 모델로서 수리동역학과 수질반응역학을 한데 묶어서 풀이하였다는 점에서 획기적인 변화로 볼 수 있다. 이 모델은 종방향으로 길고 수심이 깊으며 상대적으로 하폭이 좁은 형태의 수체에 적합하며 하폭방향의 수질 변화를 나타내는 데 사용되지 못하는 단점이 있다. WASP(Water Quality Analysis and Simulation Program) 은 미국 환경부에서 개발한 비정상상태 3차원 수질모델로서 세계적으로 다양한 수체에 널리 사용되어 왔다. 이 모델에서 1차원적 흐름을 예측할 수 있는 DYNHYD 라는 수리학적 부프로그램은 2차원 또는 3차원 상황에서는 사용할 수가 없었음에 따라 수리학적 고려가 빈약한 것이 이 모델의 가장 큰 약점으로 지적되어 왔다. 최근 미국 환경부는 EFDC(Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) 라는 3차원 수리동역학 프로그램을 이용하여 대상 수체의 수리학적 거동을 모의하고 그 결과를 WASP7 에 연계시킬 수 있도록 하여 기존의 단점을 대폭 보완하였다. 본 연구에서는 금강 상류에 위치하고 있는 용담호를 대상으로 EFDC 를 이용하여 2005년 1년간 수위 및 수온성층현상을 예측하고 그 결과가 WASP 에 연결되어 사용될 수 있도록 하였다. 적절한 격자의 수를 결정하기 위하여 다양한 경우가 시행착오적으로 시험되었으며 비교적 적은 숫자의 격자로도 수위 및 수온의 모의가 가능하다는 것을 발견하였다.

Lately water quality of Daechong Reservoir has become more eutrophicated than ever before and there has been much concern over especially the eutrophication of the embayment near Daejon and Chongju Water Intake Tower every summer. The purpose of this study is to predict the impact of change in the pollutant loading, flowrate, nitrogen and phosphorus release from sediment, SOD(sediment oxygen demand) upon the water quality of Daechong Reservoir by WASP5/EUTR05 in order to suggest water quality management alternatives. The data of Sep. 1995 were used for the calibration of the model and those of Sep. 1997 was for verification. The result of the modeling can be summarized as follows. 1. The 50% increase(decrease) of pollutant loading has caused that of T-N concentration by 0.10-0.14 mg/l, T-P concentration by 0.003-0.005 mg/l, and CBOD concentration by 0.16-0.18 mg/l. But the ratio of DO change by the change of pollutant loading was relatively small. 2. The sensitivity test of NH4 flux to T-N and that of P04 flux to T-P shows that T-N and T-P concentration were changed more in the epilimnion segments (SEG4, SEG5, SEG6, SEG7) than the other segments. As SOD increases, DO was predicted to decrease more especially in the hypolimnion (SEG9-SEG14). 3. As flowrate increase, the concentration of T-N, T-P, and CBOD were predicted to decrease, but DO concentration increased especially in the hypolimnion segments(SEG11, SEG12, SEG13, and SEG14). As the flowrate changed from $119m^3/sec$ to $50m^3/sec$, the concentration of T-N and CBOD in the hypolimnion was predicted to decrease.
