The relationships between the phytoplankton community and sizes of reservoirs are investigated from 29 reservoirs in Yeongsan and Seomjin River Basins, Korea. As a microalgal flora, a total of 371 species of phytoplankton were identified. There were spatial and seasonal variations in standing crops and species diversity of phytoplankton. Statistical analysis showed that the size of reservoirs did not affect greatly on the community of phytoplankton. Species diversity and standing crops were higher in reservoirs of smaller surface area. However, there were no distinctive relationships between the size of basins of reservoirs and standing crops, species diversity, and chlorophyll $a$ concentrations. Relationships between the constructed years of reservoirs and standing crops, species diversity, and chlorophyll $a$ concentrations also showed very low level.

Environmental parameters and phytoplankton community structure were investigated at four sites of Yeongsan River between April 2010 and December 2011. The standing crops of the phytoplankton ranged from $275cells{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ to $58,600cells{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ with an average of $5,850cells{\cdot}mL^{-1}$. The dominant species were Cyclotella sp., Stephanodiscus sp., Aulacoseira granulata, Scenedesmus quadricauda, Pediastrum biwae, Coelastrum sp., Aphnizomenon sp., and Oscillatoria sp.. The most dominant species was Stephanodiscus sp.. The concentration of chlorophyll-a ranged from $2.3mg{\cdot}m^{-3}$ to $164.2mg{\cdot}m^{-3}$. The phytoplankton community structure of the survey area was influenced by temperature and rainfall.

The objective of this study was to analyze long-term temporal trends of water chemistry and spatial heterogeneity for 10 sampling sites of the Yeongsan River watershed using water quality dataset during 1995 to 2004 (obtained from the Ministry of Environment, Korea). The water quality, based on multi-parameters of biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), conductivity, dissolved oxygen (Do), total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN) and total suspended solids (TSS), largely varied depending on the sampling sites, seasons and years. Largest seasonal variabilities in most parameters occurred during the two months of July to August and these were closely associated with large spate of summmer monsoon rain. Conductivity, used as a key indicator for a ionic dilution during rainy season, and nutrients of TN and TP had an inverse function of precipitation (absolute r values> 0.32, P< 0.01, n= 119), whereas BOD and COD had no significant relations(P> 0.05, n= 119) with rainfall. Minimum values in conductivity, TN, and TP were observed during the summer monsoon, indicating an ionic and nutrient dilution of river water by the rainwater. In contrast, major inputs of total suspended solids (TSS) occurred during the period of summer monsoon. BOD values varied with seasons and the values was closely associated (r=0.592: P< 0.01) with COD, while variations of TN were had high correlations (r=0.529 : P< 0.01) with TP. Seasonal fluctuations of DO showed that maximum values were in the cold winter season and minimum values were in the summer seasons, indicating an inverse relation with water temperature. The spatial trend analyses of TP, TN, BOD, COD and TSS, except for conductivity, showed that the values were greater in the mid-river reach than in the headwater and down-river reaches. Conductivity was greater in the down-river sites than any other sites. Overall data of BOD, COD, and nutrients (TN, TP) showed that water quality was worst in the Site 4, compared to those of others sites. This was due to continuous effluents from the wastewater treatment plants within the urban area of Gwangju city. Based on the overall dataset, efficient water quality management is required in the urban area for better water quality.

첨두유량이 연속적으로 발생하므로 인하여 수리구조물의 파괴에 영향을 끼치는 설계홍수량의 추정을 위해 본 연구에서는 제I보에 이어 2차적으로 부분 기간 계열인 금강, 영산강 및 섬진강 수계 6개 유역의 비년 초과치를 중심으로 하여 변환법인 SMEMAX법, 멱변화(Power Transformation) 및 2단계 멱변환(Two Step Power Transformation, TSPT)법에 의해 빈도분포의 정규화를 시도하고 이들에 대한 정규화 효율성의 비교분석과 설계홍수량 유도를 위한 변환법별 적합도 검정을 수행하였다. 왜곡분포의 정규화 시도는 제I보의 결과와 마찬가지로 SMAMAX 및 Power변환법에서는 빈도분포의 정규화가 미흡하였으나 2단계 멱변환법에서는 빈도분포의 만족한 정규화를 기할 수 있었다. 또한 3개 변환법에 의해 유도된 설계홍수량의 비교 분석에서는 3개 방법 모두 재현기간 20년 이내의 설계홍수량이 거의 유사한 결과를 나타내었으며 Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test에 의한 3개 변환법별 적합도검정 결과 2단계 멱변환법이 적정 변환법으로 인정되었다.

The purpose of this study was to model the effect of flushing discharge on algae removal by multi-purpose weir operation in Yeongsan River (Seungchon Weir) using a 3-dimensional (3D) model. The chlorophyceae Eudorina sp. formed bloom in May 2013. Flushing discharge was conducted in two different ways for algal bloom reduction. To elucidate the spatial variability, a high-resolution 3D model, ELCOM-CAEDYM, was used to simulate the spatial variations of water quality and chl-a over a month. The results showed that ELCOM-CAEDYM could reproduce highly spatially resolved field data at low cost, and showed very good performance in simulating the pattern of algal bloom occurrence. The effect of each flushing discharge operation was analyzed with the results of modeling. The results of case 1, flushing discharge using an open movable weir, showed that the algal bloom between the Seochang Bridge and the Hwangryong River junction is rapidly flushed after operating the movable weir, but the residual algae remained in the weir pool as the discharge decreased. However, the results of case 2, fixed weir overflow with a small hydropower stop, showed that most of the algae was removed after flushing discharge and the effect of algae removal was much bigger than that in case 1, as per modeling results and observed data.

The relationships between river length and weir density versus fish species observed were analyzed for 210 local rivers in the Seomjin River system (SJR). A nonlinear exponential relationship between river length and number of fish species were observed. Model coefficient was 0.03 and coefficient of determinant (R²) was 0.59, meaning that about 59.0% of total variance was explained by river length variable. Predicted value by model and observed number of species showed a difference. About 110 local rivers (about 52.4%) showed lower value than predictive value. The average index of weir's density (IWD) in the SJR was about 2.7/km, which was significantly higher than that of other river basins. As a result of nonparametric 2-Kimensional Kolmogorov-Smirnov (2-DKS) analysis based on the IWD, the threshold value affecting fish diversity was about 2.5/km (D_max=0.048, p<0.05). Above the threshold value, it means that the number of fish species would be decreased. In fact, the ratio of the expected species to the observed species was lowered to less than 70%, when the IWD is higher than the threshold value. To maintain aquatic ecological connectivity in future, it is necessary to manage IWD below the threshold value.

In order to continuous watershed management and improve water quality at Yeong-san river system, we analyzed and evaluated data on the monitoring of small stream in city and county boundaries within the watershed. In-period monitoring is estimated to be more frequent in the second quarter than the first quarter, so it should be considered when evaluating the target water quality by setting the target water quality. A small stream in the Yeong-san river system has higher concentration in the downstream area than the upstream area. As a result of calculating the load of the measuring point, Y.b B3(Pungyeongjeongcheon) and Y.b E1(Sampocheon) were high. The result of correlation analysis by monitoring point in order to evaluate the correlation between BOD and T-P items, BOD was highly correlated with COD and TOC, and was affected by emission of pollutants related to organic matter. T-P was highly correlated with SS and COD, and was affected by rainfall. This study will provide basic data and direction for designing efficient and scientific method for water quality management by analyzing accumulated water quality data by conducting long-term monitoring.

자동유량측정시설은 효율적으로 실시간의 유량을 측정하기 위한 수문조사시설로 전국의 주요 국가하천을 대상으로 약 62개소에서 H-ADCP를 활용하여 지속적인 유량측정을 수행하고 있다. 최근 해외에서는 국내 자동유량측정시설에 활용중인 횡방향 초음파도플러유속계(H-ADCP)의 초음파산란도를 활용하여 부유사농도를 측정하는 연구가 수행되고 있다. H-ADCP를 활용한 부유사농도 측정 기술을 자동유량관측소에 적용할 경우 실시간의 유량측정과 함께 부유사농도 자료를 획득할 수 있기 때문에 지속적인 부유사농도를 측정할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 H-ADCP를 이용한 부유사농도 측정 기술의 개발을 목적으로 기존 자동유량장치가 설치된 지점 중 과거 유사량 측정을 수행한 5개 지점에 대해 H-ADCP를 이용한 부유사농도 측정 기술의 적용성을 검토하였다. 5개의 지점은 각각 낙동강 수계 구미시(구미대교), 함안군(계내리) 2개 지점과 영산강 수계 광주광역시(극락교), 나주시(남평교), 나주시(나주대교) 3개 지점으로 과거에 수행된 실측 부유사농도 자료와 H-ADCP 원시자료를 활용하여 분석을 수행하였다. 5개 지점에 대해 H-ADCP로부터 측정된 초음파산란도의 보정을 수행하였고, 보정된 초음파산란도와 실측 부유사 농도와의 상관관계를 분석한 결과, 결정계수는 약 0.8이상으로 높은 상관관계를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 초음파산란도를 활용하여 지속적인 부유사농도를 추정한 결과와 실측부유사농도와 의 정확도를 비교한 결과 80%이상의 정확도를 보여 H-ADCP의 초음파산란도를 활용하여 부유사 농도를 측정하는데 사용이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

영산강·섬진강수계는 광역상수원의 수질개선을 위해 제도적인 노력과 예산을 투입하고 있다. 제도 도입 시행 후 20여년이 경과하면서 수변구역 내 오염원 제거가 이루어졌음에도 불구하고 주암호와 동복호의 수질은 크게 개선되지 않고 있다. 따라서, 효율적인 수질개선을 위해서는 섬진강수계 토지매수 대상 지류지천의 과학적 방법을 통한 오염 인자 조사 및 분석, 실측 자료에 기반한 우선순위 산정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수질 전문가 50명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하고AHP 기법을 통해 주암호 19개, 동복호 9개, 상사호 9개, 수어호 3개, 탐진호 16개 하천의 우선순위를 분석하였으며, 각 지류지천별 오염원 인자(생활계, 축산계, 산업계, 토지계)와 실측 인자(T-P 농도, T-P 단위면적당 오염부하량)를 이용해 하천별 배점을 산정하였다. 그 결과, 1위부터 10위 우선순위 하천의 경우 배점 합계 점수가 최소 65.9점부터 최대 82.0점까지의 점수 범위를 보였으며, 주로 배점 가중치가 가장 높은 T-P 농도와 T-P 단위면적당 오염부하량이 높은 값을 보였다. 총 배점 대비 인자별 구성 비율을 계산해본 결과, 실측 인자 중 관측 T-P 농도는 평균 33.9%, T-P 단위면적당 오염부하량은 평균 32.7%로 총합 66.6%의 값을 보였다. 또한, 높은 배점값을 보인 지류지천은 오염원 인자에서도 높은 값을 보여 토지매수로 인한 수질개선 효과가 높아질 것으로 판단된다.
