본 연구에서는 가평천을 대상으로 저서성 대형무척추동물 서식처의 수리 특성을 조사하였다. 각각의 무리들 중에서 대표적인 종은, 붙는 무리는 두점하루살이, 헤엄치는 무리는 두갈래하루살이, 굴파는 무리는 깔따구, 기는 무리는 바수염날 도래이었다. 저서성 대형무척추동물은 유속과 수심, 하상의 재료 등 하천의 수리학적 특성에 따라 다른 종류의 무리들이 서식하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 헤엄치는 무리는 수심이나 하상 재료보다는 주로 유속에 의하여 그 서식 상태가 결정되었고, 0.15~0.36 m/s에서 서식하였다. 굴파는 무리는 하상 재료가 모래나 실트인 곳을 선호하고 하상 또는 바로 상부에서 서식하였다. 기는 무리는 하상 재료가 주로 자갈이나 호박돌인 곳을 선호하고 유속이 0.05~0.15 m/s에서 서식하였다. 붙는 무리는 하상재료가 조약돌이나 자갈인 곳을 선호하고 유속이 0.06~0.15 m/s에서 서식하였다. 각 무리별 서식처의 수리 특성이 달라지지만, 일반적으로 저서성 대형 무척추동물은 유속에 의해 서식 상태가 달라진다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In the present study, the community distribution, functional feeding groups, and habitat groups of the benthic macroinvertebrates from Gayasan National Park were investigated at eight different sites from 2015 to 2016. The correlation between habitat altitude and each group type was analyzed statistically. Biodiversity indices, including dominance, diversity, richness, and evenness indices, were calculated. The results showed a total of 4,216 individual benthic macroinvertebrates were collected, including 4 phyla, 6 classes, 16 orders, 40 families, and 100 species. Gammarus sobaegensis was dominant with 0.141% dominance, and the subdominant species was Epeorus nipponicus with 0.088% dominance. The EPT group(Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Tricoptera) accounted for 71.00% of the total species and 67.69% of the total individuals. The number of scraper species was highest, and the number of gathering collector individuals was highest among functional feeding groups. The individual number of scrapers(r=-0.358, p < 0.05) and gathering collectors(r=-0.343, p < 0.05) decreased with increasing altitude. The numbers of species and individuals of clingers and sprawlers were highest among the habitat groups. The individual number of clingers(r=-0.547, p < 0.01) and burrowers(r=-0.331, p < 0.05) significantly decreased with increasing altitude. The diversity and richness indices were higher in St. 3 than in the other sites. The dominance index was highest in St. 2, and the evenness index was highest in St. 7. We evaluated the biological water quality with several known methods, and concluded that ESB(Ecological score of benthic macrovertebrates community) and GPI(Group polution index) were more suitable than KSI(Korean saprobic index) and BMI (Benthic macrovertebrate index) to assess the biological water quality of Gayasan mountain stream water.

연엽산 산지계류의 저서성 대형무척추동물은 총 24과 44종 658개체가 확인되었으며, 참납작하루살이(Ecdyonurus dracon Kluge)가 13%로 우점하였다. 서식습성군으로는 붙는 무리(56%), 굴파는 무리(19%), 헤엄치는 무리(14%) 및 기는 무리(56%)의 총 4군집이 확인되었고, 1개소(UP1)를 제외한 모든 조사지점에서 붙는 무리가 우점한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 서식특성은 서식처의 유속, 수심, 계상재료 등 수리학적 요인과 용존산소, 수온 등 수질 요인에 따라 달라지며, 유수가 정체하는 소(pool)보다는 유속이 빠른 여울(riffle, step-riffle)에서 그 차이가 나타났다. 즉, 여울에서는 수심과 관계없이 계상의 유속이 빠르고 계상재료의 중앙입경과 최대입경이 클수록 서식처에서 붙는 무리가, 유속이 느리고 계상재료의 중앙입경과 최대입경이 작은 서식처에서 굴파는 무리와 기는 무리가 우점하였다. 또한, 용존산소와 유속은 정의 상관관계(y = 0.6666x - 0.659, R² = 0.0851)에 있으며, 굴파는 무리가 기는 무리와 붙는 무리보다 더 넓은 범위에 서식하는 것으로 나타났다. 수심이 얕을수록 일사량에 대한 수온의 민감도가 크기 때문에 수심과 수온은 부의 상관관계(y = -26.397x + 283.87, R² = 0.1802)를 보였으며, pH와 수온은 정의 상관관계가 나타났다. 한편, pH와 용존산소의 관계를 상·하류로 구분하여 서식특성을 파악한 결과, 군집과 상관없이 울페도가 68%로 높았던 상류에서는 높은 용존산소값과 낮은 pH를, 울페도가 51%로 상대적으로 낮았던 하류에서는 낮은 용존산소값과 높은 pH가 나타나, 계안림에 의한 부착조류의 증식과 수온상승을 억제하는 역할을 한 것으로 판단된다. 이 연구는 산지계류에 있어서 저서성 대형무척추동물의 서식특성을 파악함으로써, 산지계류가 청정지역으로 인식되어 연구 대상으로서의 관심도가 낮았던 부분의 자료를 보완하였다. 따라서 향후 산지계류의 보호 및 관리 측면에서의 연구 방안 마련과 학술적인 가치를 높이기 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Benthic macroinvertebrates were collected two times from 116 sites at the $1^{st}{\sim}4^{th}$ order streams in forest areas in Gyungsang province in late spring and late summer. The sample sites belonged to slightly and moderately polluted states. When communities were classified by the Self-Organizing Map (SOM), the gradient was observed according to degree of pollution. Within clusters of slightly polluted sites, however, seasonality was further observed. Scrapers, gatherer-collectors, and filterer-collectors were abundantly observed in late spring while shredders appeared more in late summer. The number of predator species increased in late summer. Behavior types were mostly clingers in two seasons. Community compositions at the moderately polluted sites were not much differentiated in different seasons. Gatherer-collectors and burrowers were dominantly collected in both seasons.

This study aims to analyze the changes in the benthic macroinvertebrate community before and after a restoration project in a eutrophic stream. Species diversity and species richness increased at the points where the channel changed from standing water to running water. However, species diversity and richness decreased at the points where only riparian restoration was implemented, and the concentration of suspended solids increased, while biochemical oxygen demand and total phosphorus decreased and the concentration of dissolved oxygen increased. In such reaches, functional feeding groups went from collector-filterers to collector-gatherers, and habitat orientation groups changed from clingers to burrowers.

Colonization patterns and community changes in benthic macroinvertebrates in the Cheonggye Stream, a functionally restored stream in downtown Seoul, Korea, were studied from November 2005 to November 2007. Benthic macroinvertebrates were quantitatively sampled 15 times from five sites in the stream section. Taxa richness (59 species in total) increased gradually over the first year, whereas the density revealed seasonal differences with significantly lower values in the winter season and after flood events. The benthic macroinvertebrate fauna may have drifted from the upstream reaches during floods and from the Han River, arrived aerially, or hitchhiked on artificially planted aquatic plants. Oligochaeta, Chironommidae, Psychodidae, and Hydropsychidae were identified as major community structure contributors in the stream. Swimmers and clingers colonized relatively earlier in the upper and middle reaches, whereas burrowers dominated particularly in the lower reaches. Collector-gatherers colonized at a relatively early period throughout the stream reaches, and collector-filterers, such as the net-spinning caddisfly (Cheumatopyche brevilineata), predominated in the upper and middle reaches after a 1-year time period. Cluster analyses and multi-response permutation procedures demonstrated that the Cheonggye Stream shares more similarities with the Jungnang Stream than with the Gapyeong Stream. Detrended correspondence analysis and nonmetric multidimensional scaling demonstrated that physical environmental factors (depth, current velocity, dissolved oxygen, and pH) as well as nutrients (total nitrogen and total phosphorous), water temperature, and conductivity could affect the distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates in the study streams.

This study aims to determine the community patterns of benthic macroinvertebrates and analyze the relationship between the communities and the water quality in the Pungyeongjeong Stream. We collected the samples four times by season. The number of species was 28 and the dominant species were Cheumatopsyche brevilineata, Hydropsyche kozhantschikovi, Baetis fuscatus, Chironomidae spp., and so on. The range of the dominant index was 0.54 to 0.93 and the mean was 0.77. The range of the diversity index was 0.94 to 2.54, and of the mean index it was 1.75. The ratio of filtering-collectors and clingers got lower, but the ratio of gathering-collectors and sprawlers got higher as collection progressed from the upper stream to the lower stream. The results of the Pearson correlation analysis showed COD, SS, TOC and total coliforms were highly related with biotic indices of benthic macroinvertebrates. The results of cluster analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling ordination showed that the survey sites and periods were divided into three groups. The survey sites were divided into upper stream and middle-lower stream. The survey periods were divided into winter season and other seasons. Distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates showed some characteristics according to various influence factors; however long-term and regular investigations were thought to need analysis and prediction with various statistical methods.

Water quality, benthic macroinvertebrate communities, and other factors were investigated to explore the effects of the effluent discharge from a sewage treatment plant into Jwagwang stream in Busan in 2019. During the study period, the flow rate of this stream was in the range of 10,400 m³/day to 52,200 m³/day except for the discharge of about 24,000 m³/day of the effluent. After discharge, the flow velocity increased by about 65% and the water depth increased by about 40%. At sites downstream of the discharge point, BOD, COD, TOC, T-N, T-P, and other water quality values were worse than those of the upstream sites. The periphytic algal chlorophyll-a concentrations in the natural substrata were higher than those of the upstream sites, especially in May and August. However, at sites downstream of the discharge point, the individual numbers of Annelida were decreased and individual numbers of the insecta of arthropoda were increased. Also, species numbers and the diversity and dominance indexes were improved in the sites downstream of the discharge point. The functional feeding groups (FFGs) of collector-filterers were increased and the habitat orientation groups (HOGs) of sprawlers, burrowers, and clingers were especially increased at the sites with additional reclaimed wastewater effluent flow. Regardless of the effluent discharge, BMI, an indicator of ecological stream health using benthic macroinvertebrate species, did not show large gaps between the study points. Although the water quality of the sites downstream of the discharge point was much worse than those upstream, their ecosystem soundness was better than those of the upstream sites from an ecological perspective.

Hwapocheon stream is located in Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, and a part was declared a protected wetland area in 2017. In 2020 and 2021, we investigated the community structure of benthic macroinvertebrates of the Hwapocheon stream to provide ecological information for the management of the wetland. As a result, 4 phyla, 6 classes, 20 orders, 51 families, 83 species, and 2,621 individuals of benthic macroinvertebrates were identified. The average indices of diversity, richness, and evenness were the highest in the midstream area, whereas the highest average index of dominance was observed upstream. Seven biological water quality evaluations based on the distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates showed that the Biological Monitoring Working Party was an extremely suitable method for environmental evaluation of the Hwapocheon stream. Regarding functional feeding groups, the number of species of predators and gathering-collectors was the highest, and considering habitual dwelling groups, the number of species of clingers and sprawlers was the highest. The species number of Odonata, Hemiptera, and Coleoptera increased toward the downstream area, whereas the community loss index was the highest upstream. We also investigated relative resistance and resilience based on the distribution of aquatic insects and found that community stability was the highest downstream, whereas the lowest upstream.

본 연구는 2015년 12월부터 2016년 2월까지 고온배수 배출시설에서 온배수가 유입되는 경기도 포천시 영북면에 위치한 부소천 일대에서 조사를 실시하였다. 조사지점은 온배수가 유입되는 혼합역과 혼합역을 기준으로 상 하류 지점을 선정하여 수질 분석 및 저서성 대형무척추동물의 종조성, EPT-group 개체 비율, 군집 분석, 기능군 분석, 생물학적 하천 건강성을 평가하였다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 저서성 대형무척추동물은 총 3문 4강 11목 30과 50종 4,015개체이며, 출현종 비율은 하루살이목이 6과 16종 (32.00)%, 개체수 비율은 파리목이 1,848개체 (46.03%)로 가장 높게 나타났다. 하루살이-강도래-날도래목 (EPT-group)이 조사기간 동안 총 17과 32종 1,876개체 (46.72%)가 출현하였으며, 1차에서 3차 조사기간 동안 혼합역에서 가장 낮은 출현율을 나타냈다. 군집 분석 결과 혼합역에서 비교적 넓은 수온대를 가지는 실지렁이 (Limnodrilus gotoi)와 깔따구 sp2.(Chironomidae sp.2)가 우점하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 네점하루살이 (Ecdyonurus levis), 민하루살이 (Cincticostella levanidovae), 민강도래 KUa (Nemoura KUa) 등이 우점종으로 분석된 상 하류 지점과 차이를 나타냈다. 섭식기능군 분석 결과 상류와 혼합역에서 Gathering-Collectors, 하류에서는 Filtering-Collectors의 비율이 가장 높은 것으로 분석되었고, 상류에서 하류로 갈수록 Shredders의 비율이 감소하였다. 서식기능군은 Clingers와 Burrowers가 대부분을 차지하였으며, 상류에서 하류로 갈수록 Clingers의 비율이 높아지는 것으로 분석되었다. 하천 건강성 평가 결과 평균 2.73 (${\pm}0.41$)으로 혼합역에서 가장 불량한 상태를 나타내는 것으로 분석되었다. 수온과 냉수성종의 상관성 분석 결과 수온이 증가할수록 냉수성 선호종 및 EPT-group은 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 혼합역에 유입되는 고온의 방류수는 하천생태계에 교란을 일으키는 요인으로써 저서성 대형무척추동물 군집과 냉수성 선호종 및 민감종의 분포에 부정적인 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 판단된다.
