Estimation of water quality for Geumgang Reservoir by diversion of the Geumgang river flow to the Saemangeum reservoir

Geumgang canal is planned to connect Geumgang lake with Saemangeum reservoir to accelerate desalinization and dillute polluted water in Saemangeum reservoir. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the variations of water quality by divesion of Geumgang lake flow to the Saemangeum reservoir. WASP5 model was used to estimate water quality concentration of Geumgang lake. Model calibration and verification was done for water quality data for 2001 and 2002. As a result of simulating water quality concentration for 4 scenarios, which was considered whether Geumgang canal will be built, there was little influence on water quality in Geumgang lake though Geumgang lake flow diverted to Saemangeum reservoir.
