Abstract

The changes in fish stock and biomass before and after fishway renovation located in a Korean estuary were studied and fluctuations in the economic value of the fish resources were estimated. The target fishway located in the east coast area in Korea was renovated in 2014 from the small fish ladder to the ice-harbor fishway. Monitoring was continued for five consecutive years after the renovation(2015 to 2019). Since the renovation of the fish passage, the economic values increased with increases in the fishery resources, except for in 2016 when the drought impact was severe. The yearly average incremental increase in the five years after the renovation was about 227%. The increase in economic value is believed to be due to the increased population of migratory fish as a result of habitat expansion. The exponential rise model showed an increase in economic value with increasing fishery resources (R2=0.896). The model coefficient contributing to economic analysis was 0.582 and the maximum economic value after the renovation was estimated at about 30.4 million. The economic value would be a useful index for quantitative comparison in terms of ecosystem services before and after renovation.

SOW-0010의 어도 개보수 전·후 자원량을 분석한 결과 개보수 이후 평균자원량은 약 4.6배 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 경제적 가치는 어도 개보수 전 2014년 약 5.3백만원에서 어도 개보수 후 2015년 약 23.9백만원, 2016년 약 3.0백만원, 2017년 약 10.4백만원, 2018년 약 22.4백만원, 2019년 약 27.1백만원으로 매년 증감패턴이 다르게 나타났다. 2016년을 제외하고 전체적으로 개보수 이후 경제적 가치는 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 다양한 회유성어종의 유입과 담수어류의 국지적 이동이 증가했기 때문으로 판단한다. 자원량 변화에 따른 경제적 가치변동을 지수함수를 적용하여 분석한 결과 모델계수는 0.582였으며, 이에 따른 최대 경제적 가치는 30.4백만원인 것으로 추정되었다. 군집 내 경제성어종의 비율과 점유율이 높을수록 계수값이 증가하고 이에 따라 경제적 가치가 높아질 것으로 예상한다.
