Abstract

Sediment dredging can permanently remove pollutants from an aquatic ecosystem, which is considered an effective approach to aquatic ecosystem restoration. In this study, we quantified the effects of sediment dredging on water quality in Masan Bay by calculation of oxygen demanding rate. We applied ecosystem model including water and sediment quality module in Masan Bay. The results showed that the increase of calculated oxygen demanding rate is significant due to sediment dredging of both inner part and outer part of Masan Bay. On the other hand, the increase is gradual due to decrease of anthropogenic load. It meant sediment dredging can improve water quality of Masan Bay more. Using correlation equation between oxygen demanding rate and sediment oxygen demand, we calculated that the area of sediment dredging which is equal to the effects of 10 % reduction of anthropogenic load. It is $1.68km^2$ in inner part and $3.15km^2$ in outer part of the Masan Bay. This Meant that to improve water quality of Masan Bay, sediment dredging in inner part is efficient method.

퇴적물 준설은 수서생태계에서 오염물질을 영구적으로 제거하는 것으로 수서생태계 복원에 있어서 효율적인 방법으로 여겨진다. 본 연구에서는 수괴의 산소 요구율의 계산을 통해 마산만의 퇴적물 준설이 수질에 미치는 영향을 정량화하였다. 이를 위해 수질 및 저질 모델이 포함된 생태계 모델을 마산만에 적용시켰다. 모델 계산 결과, 육상 오염원이 감소할수록 수괴의 산소 요구율이 다소 증가한 반면에 만내측과 만외측의 준설에 의해서는 산소 요구율이 크게 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 퇴적물 준설이 마산만 수질을 더욱 개선시킬 수 있음을 의미한다. 산소 요구율과 퇴적물 산소 요구량의 상관관계식을 통해 육상 부하량 10 % 감소에 의한 수질 개선효과에 상당하는 퇴적물 준설 면적이 만내측에서는 $1.68km^2$ 이며, 만외측에서는 $3.15km^2$ 임을 계산하였다. 이는 마산만 수질 개선을 위해서는 만내측의 퇴적물 준설이 효율적 방법임을 의미한다.
