Abstract

To investigate the effect of yellow dust on phytoplankton, a field survey and physiological experiments were carried out in the waters near Taean Peninsula from April 22 to 26, 2006, when yellow dust occurred. Phytoplankton populations during the yellow dust period were in the range of $26{\sim}290{\times}10^3cells{\cdot}L^{-1}$, a somewhat low standing crop. An increase in diatoms (a main taxonomic group), especially benthic diatoms such as Paralia sulcate, a typical species for active mixed sea water areas, was also remarkable. In addition, the Chl-a concentration after yellow dust exceeded the Chl-a concentration change range according to the tide before yellow dust. As the concentration of yellow sand increased in a yellow sand treatment experiment, primary productivity decreased, and the maximum assimilation number showed the same tendency. In the 48h culture experiment, primary productivity of the test group was lower than that of the control group at the early stage (T0) of yellow sand treatment, but after 48 hours (T48), the test group showed higher primary productivity than the control group. In particular, the primary productivity of the test group significantly increased to 321 % after 48 hours. Therefore, strong physical environment accompanied by yellow dust may temporarily inhibit the growth of phytoplankton in the waters adjacent to China in the early stage of yellow dust, but the formation of stable water mass has also been identified as a potential factor promoting the growth of phytoplankton.

황사가 식물플랑크톤에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해, 황사가 발생한 2006년 4월 22 ~ 26일까지 태안반도 인근해역에서 현장조사 및 생리실험을 수행하였다. 황사발생동안 식물플랑크톤 군집은 $26{\sim}290{\times}10^3cells{\cdot}L^{-1}$의 범위로 다소 낮은 현존량과 주요 분류군인 돌말류의 증가, 특히 혼합해역의 대표종인 Paralia sulcata와 같은 저서성 돌말류의 증가가 뚜렷하였다. 또한 황사발생 후의 Chl-a 농도는 황사 발생 전의 조석에 따른 Chl-a 농도변화범위를 초과하였다. 황사투여실험에서는 황사투여 농도가 증가함에 따라 일차생산력은 점차 감소하였고, 최대 탄소 동화계수 역시 같은 경향을 보였다. 48시간 배양실험에서는 황사투여 초기(T0)에 실험구(test)가 대조구(control)에 비해 낮은 일차생산력을 보였으나, 48시간 후(T48)에는 실험구가 대조구보다 높은 일차생산력을 보였다. 특히 실험구는 초기보다 48시간 후의 일차생산력이 약 321 %로 크게 증가하였다. 따라서 중국과 인접한 조사해역의 식물플랑크톤은 황사와 함께 수반되는 강한 물리적 환경이 발생초기에 식물플랑크톤의 성장을 일시적으로 저해시킬 수 있으나, 이후 안정적인 수괴가 지속될 경우 식물플랑크톤의 성장을 촉진시키는 잠재적인 요인으로도 파악되었다.
