Streamflow Quality in a Forest Land

산지 계류수의 수질 특성(지역환경 \circled1)

This study was carried out to investigate water quality of streamflow in a forest land. We measured discharges and the concentration of streamflow for T-N, T-P, COD, cations(Na$\^$+/, K$\^$+/, Ca$\^$2+/, Mg$\^$2+/), and anions(CI$\^$－/, SO$\_$4/$\^$2-/). The average concentration of pollutants were extremely low, such as 0.4mg/$\ell$ for T-N, 0.02 mg/$\ell$ for T-P and 2.68mg/$\ell$for COD. The concentration of cations have a tendency to decrease with increasing discharge, while the concentration of SO$\_$4/$\^$2-/) increase with increasing discharge. It was found that the average concentration of Ca$\^$2+/ was highest and that of K$\^$+/ was lowest among cations.
