Abstract

Contents of heavy metals in sea waters, sediments, fishes, and shellfishes from Kunsan Changhang coastal areas were investigated. Average contents of heavy metals in sea water were Pb 2.35, Cd 0.52, Cu 2.09, Zn 13.65 and $Hg\;0.24\;{\mu}g/l$. Average contents of heavy metals in sediments were Pb 19.49, Cd 0.15, Cu 9.31, Zn 20.07 mg/kg, and $Hg{\;}13.6{\;}{\mu}g/l$. Average contents of Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn, and Hg in .Acantogobius hasta were 1.08, 0.05, 2.24, 58.14, and 0.151 mg/kg and those in Mugil cephalus were 1.63, 0.05, 1.51, 32.69, and 0.065 mg/kg. Accumulation ratios of Pb and Cu in Acantogobius hasta were similar to Mugil cephalus but accumulation ratios of Zn and Hg in Acantogobius hasta were higher 2 times than in Mugil cephalus. Average contents of Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn, and Hg in Cyclina sinensis were 1.03, 1.23, 6.83, 75.83, and 0.071 mg/kg and those in Ruditapes philippinarum were 0.93, 0.86, 5.90, 52.16, and 0.074 mg/kg. Accumulation ratios of heavy metals in shellfishes were in the order of Cu>Cd>Zn>Pb>Hg, irrespective of shellfishes kind.

군산 장항 해안지역의 중금속 오염실태를 파악하기 위하여 해수, 해안저질토 및 어패류중 중금속함량을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 해수중 중금속 평균함량은 Pb 2.35, Cd 0.52, Cu 2.09, Zn 13.65, $Hg\;0.24\;{\mu}g/l$이었다. 해안저질토중 중금속 평균함량은 Pb 19.49, Cd 0.15, Cu 9.31, Zn 20.07, Hg 0.136 mg/kg이었으며, 각 조사지점 별로 중금속함량간에 차이를 나타내고 있었다. 어류의 건물중 Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn, Hg평균함량은 풀망독(Acantogobius hasta)에서 각각 1.08, 0.05, 2.24, 58.14, 0.151 mg/kg이었으며, 숭어(Mugil cephalus)에서 각각 1.63, 0.05, 1.51, 32.69, 0.065 mg/kg으로 나타났다. 풀망독 및 숭어에서 Pb, Cu의 경우는 비슷한 축적률을 보이고 있으나 풀망독이 숭어에 비해 Zn과 Hg에서 2배 이상 높은 축적률을 보였다. 패류의 건물중 Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn, Hg 평균함량은 가무락(Cyclina sinensis)에서 각각 1.03, 1.23, 6.83, 75.83, 0.071 mg/kg이었으며, 반지락(Ruditpes philippinarum)에서 각각 0.93, 0.86, 5.90, 52.16, 0.074 mg/kg으로 나타났다. 인근 해수중 평균 중금속함량을 기준으로 계산된 중금속 축적률 순위는 패류종에 관계없이 Cu>Cd>Zn>Pb>Hg 순이었다.
