Abstract

The objectives of this study were to analyze ecological characteristics of fish compositions and estimate the optimal ecological flow using the physical habitat simulation system (PHABSIM) in Wonju stream and Boseong river. We sampled fishes using two gears such as casting net and kicknet to determine fish distribution and also measured flow velocity, water depth, bed material at the point where fish collected. Total number of species and individuals sampled were 20 and 2,104, respectively and dominant species was Zacco platypus (39.7%) and subdominant species was Z. koreanus (RA: 15.8%) in Wonju stream. In Boseong river, collected fishes were 1,638 individuals, 28 species. Dominant and sub-dominant species was Z. platypus (RA: 22.0%) and Microphysogobio yaluensis (RA: 17.2%), respectively. For calculating habitat suitability index (HSI), we selected Z. platypus as representative fish species and analyzed water depth and flow velocity. Water depth and flow velocity were 0.2-0.6 m, 0.1-0.3 m/s, respectively in Wonju stream and 0.3-0.6 m, 0-0.3 m/s, respectively in Boseong river. According to the analysis of ecological flow simulation, optimal flow was 1.1 cms and 0.3 cms in Wonju stream and 0.4cms, 2.2cms in Boseong river at up and down stream respectively. WUA (Weighted Usable Area) was 9.5%, 26.6% in Wonju stream and 34.8%, 53.3% in Boseong river at up and down stream respectively.

본 연구는 원주천과 보성강에서 보의 형태에 따른 어류 군집 구조를 파악하고, 보를 중심으로 상하류에 PHABSIM을 이용한 최적 생태유량을 산정하여 물리적 서식지 평가를 실시하였다. 2014년 8월부터 2015년 9월까지 원주천의 콘크리트 보(반곡보) 6회, 보성강의 돌보는 5회 조사를 실시하였다. 어류는 투망과 족대를 이용하여 채집하였으며, 어류를 채집한 지점에서 유속, 수심, 하상재료를 측정 및 관찰하였다. 어류상을 토대로, 생물다양도(우점도, 균등도, 다양도, 풍부도)를 측정하였으며, PRIMER5를 통해 군집유사도를 산출하였고, PHABSIM을 이용하여 최적 유량을 산정하였다. 원주천에서는 7과 20종 2,104개체가 채집되었으며 피라미와 참갈겨니가 각각 39.7%, 15.8%로 우점 및 아우점하였다. 보성강에서는 6과 28종 1,638개체가 출현하였고, 피라미와 돌마자가 각각 22.0%, 17.2%로 우점 및 아우점하였다. 서식지적합도지수(Habitat Suitability Index, HSI)를 산정하기 위해 두 지점의 대표어종인 피라미를 선정하였다. 그 결과 원주천에서는 수심 0.2~0.6 m 유속 0.1~0.3 m/s로 측정되었고, 보성강에서는 수심 0.3~0.6 m, 유속 0~0.3 m/s로 나타났다. PHABSIM을 이용한 최적 생태유량 모의 결과 원주천의 보상류가 1.1 cms, 하류가 0.3 cms, 보성강은 상류가 0.4 cms, 하류가 2.2 cms로 나타나 각각의 하천에서 반대의 결과가 나타났다. 최적유량 적용시 가중가용면적(Weighted Usable Area, WUA)는 원주천이 상류 9.5%, 하류 26.6%, 보성강은 상류 34.8%, 하류 53.3%로 나타났다.
