청주시 석남천 유역의 4개 지점, 미호천 유역의 1개 지점, 석남천과 미호천 합류지역의 1개 지점 등 6개 지점을 기준지점으로 택하고, 각 지점의 상층, 중층, 하층에서 침전물을 채취하여 조사용 시료를 제작하였다. 한국원자력연구소의 연구용 원자로(HANARO)의 중성자 선을 이용한 중성자 방사화 분석법으로 원소함량을 분석하였다. 미국 표준연구원(NIST)의 인증표준물질을 이용하여 시료 중의 30 개 원소들의 함량을 비교법으로 분석하였다. 그 분석 결과로부터 하천오염원지역에서 하류로 이어지는 지역의 침전물 오염도분포조사 및 예측시 오염물질의 원소비중과 유속을 고려해야 하며 하천침전물의 함량분석을 위한 시료를 채취할 때 시료의 지역적 대표성을 확립하기 위해서는 원소의 비중과 유속 등을 고려하여 수직적 범위를 정할 필요가 있음을 알았다.

This study investigated the distributive property of micropollutants in sediment around Gwang-yang bay using simultaneous analytical method of 310 chemicals. In the results, the major micropollutants detected were CH type chemicals such as aliphatic, polycyclic compounds, benzenes, and CHN(O) type chemicals aromatic amines, and pesticides. Insecticides of pesticide type were frequently detected at all sampling site. The total concentration of micropollutants were higher in summer than in winter and measured within the range of $ND{\sim}36.50{\mu}g/L$. Also, because of effect of seomjin river, GY6 of all sampling site detected by the highest concentration, GY10 and 11 located in Gwang-yang outside bay were not detected the micropollutants. From the result of this study, we should estimated that the industrial complex located in Gwang-yang inside bay and an inflow of fresh water through the Seomjin river are major pollution sources of Gwang-yang bay.

토사유출에 대한 자료는 극히 제한되어 있으며 이에 대한 관측지점 또한 대하천에 국한되어 있다. 더욱이 대하천 하류의 해안부근 유사량 자료는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구는 지속적인 토사유입으로 인하여 그 면적이 줄어들고 있는 동해안의 석호인 유역면적 $8.2km^2$의 향호를 대상으로 토사량 유출량을 계산하여 유호성을 검증하였다. 그 결과 향호로 유입되는 비유사량은 약 $280t/km^2/yr$이었으며 유사전달률은 약 0.78이었다. 본 접근방법은 현재 육역화가 대부분 진행되어 있는 동해안 석호의 토사유입 과정을 유추하는데 유효한 자료가 될 것으로 기대한다.

Characterization of sediment quality is important for the proper management of surface water quality, yet sediment has not been monitored sufficiently. In this study, fecal indicator microorganism concentrations of sediments in the Geum River Basin were monitored. Sampling was carried out at one paddy field, one lakeshore and five monitoring stations in the lower reach of the Geum River Basin. Surface waters and sediments were sampled four times during rainy season. Total coliform concentrations of sediments were 12 times higher in average to those of surface waters while E. coli concentrations of sediments were six times higher. No correlation found between indicator microorganism concentration between surface waters and sediments.

In order to examine the contamination levels of trace elements in stream sediments in the Chungnam coal mine area, stream sediment and water samples were collected and analyzed for trace elements. The pH of stream water was neutral or weak-alkaline and the mobility of metal in stream sediments was supposed to be low. From the result of cluster analysis, non-polluted sampling stations can be distinguished from polluted sampling stations influenced by mining activities. The trace element concentrations in sediments from non-polluted zone were considered to be the natural backround concentrations of this area. The trace element concentrations in sediment samples from the mining area were higher than those from non-polluted area, and contaminated area of enriched trace element levels need to be properly managed. From the results of discriminant and regression analyses, concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb AND zN and predicted values of Be, Mo, and Ni in Chungnam coal mine area were found to be lower than those in metal mining areas in Korea.

심해저 망간단괴 채광에 따른 저층생태환경의 변화를 평가하기 위한 기초환경연구의 일환으로 북동적도 태평양 심해저 퇴적물 내의 총 ATP(T-ATP), 용존 ATP(D-ATP) 그리고 입자성 ATP(P-ATP)의 농도 및 수직분포양상을 연구하였다. T-ATP는 퇴적물 6 cm 깊이 내에서 4.4~40.6, D-ATP는 0.6~16.1, 그리고 P-ATP는 3.0~29.2 ng/g dry sediment의 범위로 변했다. T-ATP의 약 84%, D-ATP의 약 81% 그리고 P-ATP의 약 74%가 표층 퇴적물 2 cm 이내에 분포하는 것으로 나타났으며, 분포양상이 퇴적물 내의 함수율과 높은 상관관계를 나타냈다. 이러한 결과는 심해저 퇴적물 내의 미생물(P-ATP) 분포가 수층으로부터 전달되는 유기탄소에 의해 결정됨을 의미한다. 다중주상 시료채집기를 사용해 획득한 퇴적물에서 P-ATP 최대층이 0~0.5 cm 깊이 내에 존재하는 것으로 나타나, 표층이 교란되는 상자형 퇴적물 채집기보다는 다중주상 시료채집기가 심해저 퇴적물내 ATP의 미세수직구조의 연구를 위해서 더욱 효과적인 것으로 판명되었다. 결론적으로 ATP 농도가 퇴적물 깊이 6cm 이내에서 뚜렷한 수직분포양상을 보이는 것으로 미루어, ATP 분포양상이 향후 심해저 광업에 따른 미생물 생체량 변화를 평가하기 위한 유용한 환경기초자료로 사용될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In order to solve water quality problem of domestic dam reservoir, many projects have been performed in a point of view to restoration of water quality. This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of release from sediment on water quality and release characteristics. Daecheong dam reservoir was investigated for two years, from 1998 to 1999. The nutrient release rates of Daecheong reservoir is less than foreign eutrophic reservoir at anoxic condition. For the evaluation of the effect of nutrient release on water quality, internal and external loading was calculated at Daecheong reservoir. As total phosphorus loading from sediment is calculated 9.3 ton/yr and inflow loading from Daecheong reservoir watershed 118 ton/yr, internal loading shows the portion of 7.88% to external loading. At this study, because sampling point was choosed at the point where much sediment is accumulated, experimental result is more than average release rates. Because Daecheong reservoir shows complete thermal stratification and anoxic condition below 30m from water surface in summer seasons, released phosphorus from sediment can not transfer to epilimnion and eventually resettles. Therefore sediment has insignificant impacts on water quality on Daecheong dam reservoir.

Recently, environmental DNA (eDNA)-based metabarcoding approaches have been proposed to evaluate the status of freshwater ecosystems owing to various advantages, including fast and easy sampling and minimal habitat disruption from sampling. Therefore, as a case study, we applied eDNA metabarcoding techniques to evaluate the effects of an abandoned mine land located near a headwater stream of Nakdonggang River, South Korea, by examining benthic macroinvertebrate diversity and compared the results with those obtained using the traditional Surber-net sampling method. The number of genera was higher in Surber-net sampling (29) than in the eDNA analysis (20). The genus richness tended to decrease from headwater to downstream in eDNA analysis, whereas richness tended to decrease at sites with acid-sulfated sediment areas using Surber-net sampling. Through cluster analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling, the sampling sites were differentiated into two parts: acid-sulfated and other sites using Surber-net sampling, whereas they were grouped into the two lowest downstream and other sites using eDNA sampling. To evaluate freshwater ecosystems using eDNA analysis in practical applications, it is necessary to constantly upgrade the methodologies and compare the data with field survey methods.

This study was performed to investigate the riverbed structure and the pollution type in Nakdong River, Western Nakdong River. and Suyoung Stream. Sediment and water samples were collected at is in Nakdong River. in Western Nakdong River, and 8 states In Suyoung Stream from February 20, 1997 to June 15, 1997. The depth distributions of sampling sites in the three streams were measured and heavy metals(Cd, Pb, Cr, Cu) and pesticides in sediments and COD, BOD, and total nitrogen(T-N) in water samples were analysed. The deepest and the shallowest sites were strate 11(11.58m) and 9(3.35m) in Nakdong River, site 7(6.25m) and 4(2.06m) in Western Nakdong River, and site 8(2.89m) and 1(0. 61m) in Suyoung Stream , respectively. The mean concentration of Cd(45.79ppm) was higher In the sediment of Western Nakdong River than In other two streams and those of Pb(76.25ppm), Cr(48.13ppm), and Cu(77.50ppm) were higher in file sediment of Suyoung Stream than in other two streams. Pesticides(1 kind of organophosphorus and 3 kinds of organochlorine pesticide) were detected only in the sediment of Western Nakdong River. The mean concentrations of COD(20.26ppm), BOD(25.36ppm), and T-N(18.05ppm) were higher in the water sample of Suyoung Stream than In other two streams.

In aqueous ecosystems, the level of toxicity is highly responsive dependant to multiple variables, including rainfall, sunlight, pH, adhesion, etc. Because Korea has particularly distinct wet and dry seasons, the toxicity of pollutants in rivers or streams is dependant on the sampling season and time. In order to examine the effects of rainfall on toxicity, sediment samples were collected from five sites along the Keumho river. It was found that Microtox toxicity levels were generally higher during the dry season than the wet season. It indicated that river pollutants are carried off more quickly by the water during the wet season. As a result, it was recommended that the point sources of pollutants of the Keumho river would be placed between KH3 (Paldalgyo) and KH4(Keumhogyo), KH4(Keumhogyo) and KH5(Dasa).
