Abstract

This study was performed to investigate a seasonal and vertical variation of the nutrients, water temperature, pH, DO, BOD, COD in Sukchon lake from May 1985 to Jan. 1986. The results were as follows. 1. Vertical descent of water temperature was the remarkable situation on Jul. and difference between surface layer and bottom layer was 3.5$\circ$C. 2. The value of pH was average 8.0 in both lake. The value of pH in the winter was average 7.6, and Summer was average 8.3. 3. The contents of dissolved oxygen was the highest value (13.0mg/l in surface layer on Jan. and the lowest value (8.1mg/l in bottom layer on Ul. 4. The contents of PO$_4$-P, NH$_3$-N, NO$_3$-N and T-N were 0.03~O.17mg/l 0.12~0.34mg/l 0.36~0.91mg/l and 0.76~1.37mg/l respectively.
