Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate influences of solifluction and sediment runoff on the stream water qualities during the spring season. The study sites were four points in the northeastern area of the Bukhansan National Park. And, field surveys were carried out in the spring of 1999, 2000 and 2001. The results of this study were summarized as follows; During the investigation period, the amounts of sediment caused by solifluction on stream side slopes in the downstream were 1.3~1.7 times as large as those in the upstream. The pH of sediment caused by solifluction was a potential influence on the pH of stream water. Amounts of dissolved $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$ and $SO{_4}^{2-}$ in stream water were proportion to the average amounts of $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$ and $SO{_4}^{2-}$ in the sediment caused by solifluction. In the spring, the average pH of stream water was lower than the first class of the river water quality standard because of increasing chemical concentration as well as the contents of anions($Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$ and $SO{_4}^{2-}$) in the spring season. Also, the average electrical conductivity of water in downstream was about 2.3-3.3 times higher than that in upstream. The amounts of anions($Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$ and $SO{_4}^{2-}$) of water in downstream were about 1.2~7.4, 1.1~3.9, 1.1~1.4 times higher than those in upstream, respectively. Therefore, these results showed that the water quality of downstream was worse than that of upstream. As a result of regression analyses, the linear and exponential equation of pH and water quantity was pH = 1.7926 ${\times}$ stream water quantity + 5.9577($R^2=0.46$), and those of electrical conductivity and water quantity was $EC=34.417e^{3.6334{\times}\text{stream water quantity}(m^3/sec)}$ ($R^2=0.44$).

북한산국립공원 북동사면 일대에서 동결융해침식 및 토사유출이 계류수질에 미치는 영향을 파악함으로써 국립공원내 계류수질 보전을 위한 과학적 기초 자료를 제공하기 위하여 1998년 7월부터 2001년 5월 중 봄기간(3월에서 5월) 동안 동결융해침식 토사유출 및 계류수질 특성을 분석하였다. 조사기간 동안 계류변 비탈면에서 동결융해침식 되어 유출된 토사량은 하류유역이 상류유역에서 보다 약 1.3~2.7배 많았으며, 동결융해침식 토사의 평균 pH는 계류수의 pH 변동에 영향하는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 계류 수에 용존된 $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$량과 동결융해침식 토사에서의 평균 $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$량과는 정의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 봄기간 동안 계류수의 평균 pH는 용존이온($Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$)의 증가로 하천수질환경 기준 상수원수 l급수 기준보다 낮아지는 것으로 분석되었다. 계류수의 평균 전기전도도는 하류유역이 상류유역보다 2.3~3.3배 높았다. 또한, 계류수의 펑균 음이온($Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$)량은 하류유역이 상류유역보다 각각 1.2~7.4배, 1.1~3.9배, 1.1~1.4 배 높아 하류유역의 수질이 나빠지는 것으로 분석되었다. 한편, 계류수의 pH, 전기전도도와 유량과의 관계를 회귀분석한 결과, pH = 1.7926 ${\times}$ 유량 + 5.9577($R^2=0.46$), 전기 전도도 = $34.417e^{3.634{\times}유량}$($R^2=0.44$)의 관계를 나타내었다.
