To protect water pollution and scarcity in lake and river, water quality monitoring applications have become important tools to understand the change of aquatic ecosystem. KLEON (Korean Lake Ecological Observatory Network) is designed to manage and share the ecological observations. The various kinds of water quality and phytoplankton observations are collected from the selected observatories such as seven lakes/rivers/wetlands. To deeply understand the collected observations with weather, KLEON also manages the observatory information such as lake, dam, floodgate, and weather. The accumulated observation and analyzed results are used to improve the water quality index of the observatories and encourage the ecologists' cooperation.

At present, automated monitoring of water quality in Han river has been operated at each water treatment plant. But the automated measurement sites must be choosen newly because water source in Seoul move to the upper stream of Chamshil weir. In this study, automated monitoring sites in Han river were reviewed, and the proper sites for automated monitoring of water quality have been selected by Qual2E model, RMA model, water sampling guidline, Sanders' method and topograpical characteristics of Han river in order to resonable operate. 8 sites have been selected as follows: (1) the site of immediately after Paldang drainage (2) the left site and a right site of $Gu{\check{u}}i$ water intake (3) the left site and a right site at Noryangjin(Han river bridge) (4) the site between Shingok weir and Anyangchun confluence point(Hangju bridge) (5) the site of Chungryangchun downstream(existence) (6) the site of Tanchun downstream(existence) (7) the site of Anyangchun downstream(existence) (8) the site of Wangsukchun downstream. The results proposed resonable operating management of network and economical system built up.

To develop the continuous water quality monitoring system using the daphnid Daphnia sp., the growth of test animal, sensitivity, and behaviour response of toxicants were observed. Growth of test animal significantly increased with increasing the food density under the 90~105 mg/L ($CaCO_3$) hardness, except the concentration of food (Chrollela sp.) was exceeded than optimal food supply. Behaviour responses of test animals were continuously analyzed by changes of fractal dimension value (FDV). The FDV sharply decreased after exposure to the concentrations of 0.13 mg/L copper, 0.06 mg/L lead, and 0.38 mg/L cadmium. In these concentrations, mortality and abnormal behaviour of daphnids exhibited within ca. 1.0-h after exposure. Comparison of 24-h $LC_{50}$ values with other zooplankton species indicated that sensitivity of the Daphnia sp. was higher than most zooplankton for lead, and brain shrimp, rotifer, and water flea (Ceriodaphnia dubia, D. magna) for copper, and brain shrimp, water flea (D. lumholzi), and amphipod for cadmium. Based on the above experimental results, significant relationship between toxicity and behaviour response of Daphnia sp. was supported the high potential of water quality monitoring system. Consequently, behavioural monitoring method in this study suggests a good estimation tool for detection of the discharged toxicants in water body and for ecotoxicological assessment aquatic organisms.

We investigated the spatial and temporal patterns of water quality in the Gangjung-Goryoung weir that is located in the middle area of the Nakdong river, Korea. The monitoring results indicated that there are discernible vertical differences in water quality during the pre- and post-monsoon periods (May to September). During this period, it was observed that the weak thermal stratification formed at the maximum level, and pH, Chl-a, and DO concentrations in the surface layer were higher than those in the bottom layer. This vertical difference was especially noticeable for DO concentrations: there were DO depletions at the bottom layer in late June to early August. During the summer monsoon period with heavy rainfall, there was a decline in vertical differences in water quality. From this study, it was suggested that continuous monitoring of vertical profiles could become a useful tool for identifying the spatial and temporal distributions of water quality and for developing the best management policy for water quality in the Nakdong river.

The purpose of water distribution system is supplying water to users by maintaining appropriate pressure and water quality. For efficient monitoring of the water distribution system, determination of optimal locations for pressure monitoring is essential. In this study, entropy theory was applied to determine the optimal locations for pressure monitoring. The entropy which is defined as the amount of information was calculated from the pressure change due to the variation of demand reflected the abnormal conditions at nodes, and the emitter function (fire hydrant) was used to reproduce actual pressure change pattern in EPANET. The optimal combination of monitoring points for pressure detection was determined by selecting the nodes receiving maximum information from other nodes using genetic algorithm. The Ozger's and a real network were evaluated using the proposed model. From the results, it was found that the entropy theory can provide general guideline to select the locations of pressure sensors installation for optimal design and monitoring of the water distribution systems. During decision-making phase, optimal combination of monitoring points can be selected by comparing total amount of information at each point especially when there are some constraints of installation such as limitation of available budget.

In late of the 1980's, dramatic increase in water use caused over-exploitation of groundwater and deterioration of water quality in urban areas. To monitor quantity of groundwater resources and their qualities, local groundwater monitoring networks were established. Groundwater resources in urban areas are affected by various human activities including underground building construction (subway), pumping for water use, and pavements. Detailed analysis of the monitored groundwater data would provide some good implications for optimal and efficient management for groundwater resources in the urban area.

하천 및 호소수 수질의 온라인 계측을 위한 수질자동측정망의 설계에서 측정위치와 항목의 선정은 전체시스템의 성능을 결정짓는 중요한 인자이다. 본 논문에서는 상수원유역의 상시수질감시 및 사전경보 기능을 갖는 측정망의 구축이 측정위치와 항목을 결정하는 방법을 연구하였다. 측정위치를 결정하기 위한 선정기준은 상수취수량과 고정오염원의 위치를 바탕으로 대상지역에 대한 거시적 후보지점을 선정한 뒤, 구체적인 지점은 오염물질 유하거리를 기준으로 단계적으로 결정한다. 측정항목은 유역의 오염특성과 수질오염사고 이력을 참고하되, 경제적인 측면을 고려하여 필수측정항목과 선택항목으로 나누어 위치별로 달리하는 방안을 제시하였다. 제안방법을 낙동강유역에 적용함으로써 측정망 구성과정을 예시하였다.

하수관거시스템(sewer system)의 효율적인 관리를 위해서는 관거 내의 유량, 수질, 불명수 및 CSOs (Combined Sewer Overflows) 등에 대한 지속적인 모니터링이 필요하며, 따라서 하수관망에서의 모니터링은 하천 방재 측면에서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 그런데, 하나의 유역 하수관거시스템에서 모든 지점에 대한 모니터링은 예산의 제약으로 인하여 불가능하다. 따라서 모니터링 지점들은 주어진 예산 내에서 최대의 효율적인 자료의 획득이 가능한 지점들로서 선정되어야 한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 모니터링 지점의 선정에 대한 명확한 기준 및 선정된 모니터링 지점에서 획득된 자료에 대한 정량화된 평가 방법에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고 수질 자료의 효율적인 모니터링을 위하여 하수관거시스템 내에서 수질 측정지점의 선정에 대하여 유전자알고리즘을 이용한 최적화 방법을 제시하였다. 제시된 수질측정지점 선정 모형은 엔트로피 방법을 이용하여 지점별 획득 자료에 대하여 정량적으로 평가하며, 수질측정지점의 선정에 따른 수집 자료에 대한 총 엔트로피의 최대화를 목적함수로 한다. 여기서 수집 자료들에 대한 엔트로피 평가는 자료의 변동 특성을 반영하며, 자료의 획득 가능한 범위를 의미한다. 이때 수질의 측정은 유량의 관측과 동일한 지점에서 이루어져야 하므로, 수질측정지점 선정에 대한 제약 조건은 주어진 예산에 따른 유량계 설치 가능 개수로서 이루어졌다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the characteristics of leachate discharged from livestock burial sites in Gangwondo resulting from foot-and-mouth disease by monitoring the water quality at the survey tube-wells installed near livestock burial sites in order to investigate the effect of the leachate on the quality of nearby underground water and suggest a water pollution level in accordance with water quality evaluation criteria. Methods: To minimize the secondary environmental pollution damage caused by leachate at burial sites of livestock killed by foot-and-mouth disease, this study analyzed the leachate directly discharged from burial sites and installed survey tube-wells within 300 meters of livestock burial sites and investigated water quality as a means to ascertain the environmental effect of the leachate from the burial sites. In accordance with environmental management guidelines on livestock burial sites, this research investigated the water quality in the survey tube-wells in fifty five burial sites in Gangwondo. The elements investigated were $NH_3$-N, $Cl^-$, $NO_3$-N, conductivity, and E. coli. Water quality was monitored from 2011 to 2013. Results: The water quality from the drain pipe at the location of leachate from livestock burial sites showed BOD 37,209 mg/L, COD 8,829 mg/L, $NH_3$-N 3,633 mg/L, and $Cl^-$ 580 mg/L. According to the monitoring results of water quality ($Cl^-$, $NH_3$-N, conductivity) at the survey tube-wells, there was suspicion that 13 out of 55 burial sites discharged leachate, five sites discharged highly concentrated leachate (13%): one in Gangneung, one in Wonju, and three in Cheorwon. Conclusion: It was judged that out of thirteen observation wells which showed a possibility of discharged leachate, three survey tube-wells have established the discharge effect of leachate at burial sites up to recently. Therefore, it is judged that it is necessary to continue monitoring them and devise additional measures.
