Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate natural distribution of aquatic plane and to find out natural aquatic plants which highly absorb nutrient N and P. We surveyed vegetation within ${\pm}2m$ from streamside in 12 tributaries of the West Nakdong river watershed during May to October in 2003. Hydrophytes surveyed in tributaries of the West Nakdong river watershed were 27 families, 61 genera, 76 species, 3 varieties. Major dominance species of aquatic plants were Z. latifolia, P. communis, P. thunbergii, P. arundinacea, P. japonica, and P. distichum var. indutum. Aquatic plants having high production ability of biomass were Z. latifolia, P. communis, P. arundinacea, P. japonica, and E. crus-galli var. echinata. In the vertical distribution of hydrophytes within streams, dominant species were P. thunbergii and P. japonica in the upper stream, but dominant species in the downstream were P. communis and Z. latifolia. Species diversity or aquatic, plants was reduced, but their biomass and nutrient (T-N and T-P) content per the natural area unit $(m^2)$ were increased in the downsteaam. Nutrient N and P content of aquatic plants per the natural area unit were high at Joman river, Pyeonggangcheon, Bulam drainage canal, and Hogyecheon. Fifty-seven species of aquatic plants having high biomass were grounped into 4 categories $(I{\sim}IV)$ according to their nutrient content per dry weight unit. I group $(T-N,\;\geqq20gkg^{-1}\;&\;P_2O_5,\;\geqq7gkg^{-1})$ was comprised of 3 submerged plants (H. verticillata, P. crispus, and C. demersum), e emergent plants (O. javanica, P. distichum var. indutum, and R. sceleratus), 1 suspended plant (T. japonica), and 1 riparian plant (A. lobatum). Otherwise, in classification of natural hydrophytes according to their nutrient content per natural area unit, Z. latifolia, P. communis, P. longiseta, P. arundinacea, and P. distichum var. indutum possessing great biomass productivity as emergent plants were included in I group $(T-N,\;\geqq1gm^{-2}\;&\;P_2O_5,\;\geqq0.7gm^{-2})$.

본 연구는 서낙동강의 수질정화를 위하여 영양염류 고흡수식물을 선발하고자 서낙동강 유역 하천에 자생하고 있는 식물의 분포특성과 자연 상태에서의 건물생산능력 및 체내 영양염류함량을 분석하였다. 서낙동강 유역 12개 하천의 물속과 물가 2 m 이내 식물을 조사한 결과 27과 61속 76종 3변종의 총 79종이 자생하는 것으로 조사되었으며, 주요 우점식생은 고마리, 줄, 갈대, 갈풀, 달뿌리풀, 털물참새피 이었고, 건물생산능력은 줄, 갈대, 달뿌리풀, 물피, 갈풀이 높았다. 지천의 상류에서는 주로 고마리와 달뿌리풀이 우점종이었으며, 하류에서는 대형수생식물인 갈대와 줄이 우점하였다. 수생식물의 초종은 상류에 비하여 하류로 갈수록 단순해지는 경향이었으나 biomass량은 오히려 증가하였다. 하천별 수생식물의 자생 단위면적당 체내 총질소 및 총인함량은 하류로 갈수록 증가하였고, 조만강과 평강천, 불암배수로, 호계천에서 높은 특징을 보였다. 79종의 자생식물 중에서 biomass가 큰 57종의 수생식물을 영양염류 함량별로 분류한 결과, 단위무게당 영양염류(총질소, 인산)의 함량이 높은 식물군은 검정말이나 말즘과 같은 침수식물이었던 반면, 자연식생의 영양염류 흡수능을 의미하는 단위면적당 영양염류의 체내함량이 높았던 식물군은 줄이나 갈대와 같은 정수식물 이었으며, 털물 참새피는 두 분류 모두에서 높은 함량을 보였다.
