초록

1997년 5월 20일에서 8월 30일까지 북한강 지천인 율문천의 수위변동과 유속을 측정하고, 수문 자료 수집과 오염부하량을 예측하고 9개 지점에서 수질시료를 시기별로 채취하여 분석하였다. 율문천 소유역은 임야 60%, 주거지와 밭 20%, 논 20%였으며, 농가수 366 가구, 비농가수 322가구, 그리고 인구는 2,622명이었다. 조사기간(1997년 5월 20일~8월 30일)중 유역의 총강수량은 18.000 천$m^3$였고, 하루 최대 유출일은 7월 1일로 129.8 천$m^3$, 최소 유출일은 8월 17일로 0.4 천 $m^3$가 유출되었으며, 전체 유출율은 72% 이었다. 조사 기간중 모든 지점에서 $NO_3-N$ $1.4{\sim}12.6mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$, $NH_4-N$ $0.84{\sim}2.52mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$, T-P는 불검출~$2.20mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$. T-N은 $8.40{\sim}27.30mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$의 범위를 보였다. 이에 따른 T-N 부하량은 최대 $1,512kg\;day^{-1}$, 최소 $5kg\;day^{-1}$, 그리고 T-P의 부하량은 최대 $67.4kg\;day^{-1}$, 최소 $0.3kg\;day^{-1}$로 계산되었다. 강수중 $NO_3-N$의 농도는 $0.7mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$, $NH_4-N$$1.12mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$이었고, 농업지대 유출수는 각각 8.5, $2.0mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$로 강수의 13.5배와 1.8배 수준을 나타냈다. 소유역의 토양유실 예측량은 연간 12,635 Mg 으로 추정되고, 농업부분에서 N부하량은 101,210 kg로 전체 N부하량의 52.3% 였으며, 특히 토양유실과 비료에 의한 오염부하가 42%로 높게 추정되었다.

Nitrogen and phosphorus loads from an agricultural watershed of the Yulmun-chon tributary in the Buk-Han River Basin were quantified based on total amounts of water stream flow. The water quality and soil loss were estimated. Levels of the stream were recorded automatically using the water level meter. The flow velocities, along with the cross-sectional areas of the riverbed, were measured to estimate total amounts of water flow at three monitoring sites in this tributary. Water samples were collected at nine sites with two weeks interval from May to August and analyzed for the water quality parameters. Amounts of soil loss were estimated by the USLE. The size of the Yulmunchon watershed was 3,210 ha, of which paddy and upland soil areas were composed about 41%. The total amounts of soil loss from the watershed areas were estimated to be $13,273Mg\;year^{-1}$, showing 53%, 46% and 0.7% of the soil loss ratio from upland, forest, and paddy areas, respectively. Electrical conductivities and Nitrogen concentrations of the stream water were higher in the lower watershed area than in the upper area. Increments of N were higher for $NO_3-N$ than $NH_4-N$. Nitrate nitrogen was the major N form to pollute the water due to the agricultural activity. Total runoff was about 72% of the total precipitation in the watershed. The maximum loads of T-N and T-P due to the runoff were estimated to be 1,500 and $5kg\;day^{-1}$, respectively. Concentrations of $NO_3-N$ and $NH_4-N$ in the runoff were 13.5 and 1.8 times higher than those in precipitation. The N loads were mainly from soil loss, application of fertilizer, and livestock wastes, which were 52% of total N load. Results demonstrated that reduction of fertilizer use and the soil loss would be essential for water quality protection of the agricultural watershed.
