Factors most strongly related to zooplankton growth rates were studied along a lake and a river stretch in the middle part of the lowland River Spree. The study was conducted at the lake inflow (S1), the lake outflow (S2), and at the end of a 21 km stretch of the outflow (S3) from March to November of 1999. Total zooplankton biomass increased significantly at S2 and then sharply decreased at S3. The abundance of microzooplankton (rotifers and nauplii) was strongly higher than macrozooplankton (cladocerans and copepodids) at all station. However, macrozooplankton biomass (${\mu}$g dw 1$^{-1}$) was similar or much higher than microzooplankton biomass. Large-bodied cladocerans (Daphnia cucullata) dominated at S2 while small-bodied cladocerans (Bosmina longirostris) dominated at S1 and S3. Patterns in growth rates (r$_{t}$ in d$^{-1}$ of the major zooplankton community were greatly different between S1 and S2 (lake stretch) and between S2 and S3 (river stretch). In the lake, growth rates generally were positive, while values of growth rates were negative in the river stretch. Among the environmental variables considered, partial retention time (PRT, d$^{-1}$) seemed to play the most important role in determining characteristics of the zooplankton community structure in the middle part of River Spree.

Isolation and identification of alga-lytic bacteria were carried out. Fifteen isolates of alga-lytic bacteria were screened by the double layer method using A. cylindrica NIES-19 as a sole nutrient and four isolates among them were compared with their alga-lytic activity. The isolate AK-05 exhibiting the highest alga-lytic activity was identified as Acidovorax temperans base on its 16S rDNA sequence. The culture supernatant of the isolate AK-05 was reliable for the alga-lytic. Alga-lytic activity assays of culture supernatant revealed that the major substances for alga-lytic activity were non-proteins and heat stable. The highest alga-Iytic activity was practical under alkaline conditions and at 25${\sim}$$30^{\circ}C$. It is indicating an advantage for the application of water blooms by cyanobacteria in eutrophic lakes where the pH is generally in alkaline region.

Spatial and temporal variation of phosphorus in response to intensity of summer monsoon was evaluated in Taechung Reservoir during 1993${\sim}$1994. Total phosphorus (TP) averaged 31 ${\mu}$g/l during the study and varied from 6 to 197 ${\mu}$g/l. Concentrations of TP were highest in the headwaters during the monsoon of July${\sim}$August 1993, and these values were mainly made of particulate P and were closely associated (R$^{2}$=0.74, p<0.001) with high inorganic suspended solids (NVSS). In-lake TP in the headwaters was mainly influenced by the watershed runoff and declined toward the dam. Values of TP downlake was only one-fifth of the peak in the headwaters and had no correlation with NVSS. In 1994, inlake TP was markedly lower relative to 1993 and showed low spatial and temporal variation. Maximum TP during monsoon 1994 in the headwaters and mid-lake was 72% and 52% lower, respectively, than in those two zones in 1993 whereas TP downlake was similar between the two years. These results suggest that temporal variation downlake is much less influenced by seasonal inflow compared to the haedwaters. In 1993, mean TP before fall overturn, based on average value for all sites, was significantly (t=5.99, p<0.001) greater than the mean after fall overturn, whereas in 1994 mean TP after fall overturn (32 ${\mu}$g/l) was greater. This outcome indicates that in 1993 major P-input originated from the external source from the watershed during the intense monsoon, whereas in 1994 internal processes dominated during the weak monsoon. Overall data suggest that annual budget of inlake P is regulated by intensity of the summer monsoon, and phosphorus data measured at single site near the dam or headwater zone may not be represent seasonal trends of the system due to large spatial variation of Taechung Reservoir.

This study targets the urban park corresponding to the core areas (Hubs) of Green Infrastructure and estimates their value utilizing the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) and determines the planning factors which affect them. The research aims to provide basic data for supporting the value improvement in the planning stage for urban parks representing green infrastructure. The primary purpose of this research is to derive variables that affect economic value and planning factors to improve the use-value of urban parks, one of the Hubs of the green infrastructure. In this study, Sejong Lake Park, located in Sejong City, is the target site. This study collected the responses of 105 people by conducting a survey on the intention to pay for the use-value and the planning factors that affect it, targeting visitors to Sejong Lake Park. The study conducts Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) on this survey responses. The results are as follows: first, as a result of analyzing the variables which affect willingness to pay for use-value, residence and age influence the willingness to pay significantly among socioeconomic characteristics. Next, the survey responses of Double-bounded dichotomous choices (DB-DC) CVM are converted into variables through statistic techniques. Furthermore, the variables are used for a Logit model to draw coefficients. The average willingness to pay per person for the use-value of Sejong Lake Park using the derived coefficients was approximately found to be 8,597 won. Therefore, as of 2019, Sejong Lake Park, with a total of 430,000 visitors, is estimated to have an annual economic value of 3.7 billion won. Third, the average Likert scale of the planning factor affecting the decision to pay for the economic value of Sejong Lake Park was the highest along the waterfront landscape, and the convenience facilities and waterfront landscape showed the highest willingness to pay, 10,000 won. In the range between 2,500 won and 5,000 won, the waterfront area ranks highest. Therefore, it can be said that visitors to Sejong Lake Park take account of the economic value of using the waterfront landscape the most. This study is meaningful as a thesis on use-value and the planning factors that affected value evaluation results of urban parks, and the analysis of the correlation between the planning factors of urban parks as hubs located in urban areas.

To understand the fundamental features of reservoir environment and its future aspects, a simple predictive model for water quality was attempted with the aid of data easily obtained, Based on the data from 12 reservoirs in Korea, application of the simple predictive model was successfully made by means of statistical methods and simple physical submodels. Significant information on th effects of retention time on primary production in a reservoir, longitudinal change in water quality affected by certain non-dimensional parameters were also obtained. The chlorophyll-a concentration can be predicted by the equation as ; chlorophyll-a=($395{\time}limiting$ nutrient concentration) - 1.090.

하천수 흐름예측에 대한 연구는 대부분 WRF-Hydro와 같은 과정기반 모델링 시스템을 이용한다. 과정기반 모델링 시스템은 물리적 현상을 일반화한 수식으로 구성되어있다. 일반화된 수식은 불확실성을 내포하고 있으며 지역적 특성도 반영하지 못한다. 특히 수식에 사용되는 입력자료는 측정값으로 오차가 존재한다. 따라서 과정기반 모델링 시스템 예측결과는 계통오차와 우연오차가 존재한다. 현재 매개변수 보정을 통해 예측결과를 개선하는 방법을 사용하고 있으나 한계가 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 상호보완적인 Data-driven 모델을 구축하여 과정기반 모델링 시스템 결과를 개선하고자 하였다. Data-driven 모델 구축을 위해 머신러닝 기법인 instance-based weighting(IBW)과 support vector regression(SVR)을 사용하였다. 구축된 Data-driven 모델은 한반도 지역 주요 저수지 및 호수의 하천수 흐름예측을 통해 검증하였다. 검증을 위해 과정기반 모델링 시스템으로 WRF-Hydro를 구동하였다. 입력자료는 기상청의 국지수치예측모델자료(LDAPS), HydroSHEDS의 수치표고모델자료(DEM), 국가지리정보원의 저수지 및 호수 연속수치지형도를 사용하였다. 본 연구를 통해 구축된 Data-driven모델은 기존 과정기반 모델링 시스템의 오류수정 한계를 머신러닝을 이용하여 개선할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였다.

Clonorchis sinensis is a main parasite that infects humans by making freshwater fish as an intermediate host in South Korea. There are so many reports about the infestation status of Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae (CsMc) in freshwater fish living in the river, but there are a few studies of fish in the lake. In this study, we examined CsMc in Cyprinid fish sampled from Soyang Lake, Namyang Lake, Andong Lake and Chunchun Lake from 2016 to 2017. Metacercaria of trematodes were found from Hemiculter eigenmanni and Carassius auratus in Namyang Lake, and Zacco platypus and Opsarichthys uncirostris in Soyang Lake. As a result of PCR using Clonorchis sinensis specific primer sets, it was confirmed that the metacercariae from Hemiculter eigenmanni in Namyang Lake was CsMc. This study provides information on CsMc infestation status of Cyprinid fish in four lakes and it is the first report of CsMc infestation in Namyang Lake.

우리 인간이 수원으로 가장 많이 이용하는 지표수의 이동 및 저장 역할을 하는 호소는 자연환경과 인간을 이어주는 중요한 매개체임은 분명하다. 그러나 최근에 경제 성장만을 위주로 발전을 추구해온 결과, 급격한 산업화에 따른 도시지역으로의 인구 집중 현상은 호소에 자연적 혹은 인위적으로 큰 영향을 주고 있다. 하천의 자정능력을 초과하여 발생하는 오염물질이 신갈 저수지로 유입되어 생태계를 파괴하고, 하천의 최종 유입지인 호소의 오염을 가중시켰다. 경기도 용인시, 화성군, 오산시 지역의 농 공업용수의 공급원으로 이용되고 있는 신갈 저수지로 유입하는 하천 역시 도시로의 인구 집중으로 인한 막대한 생활하수와 주변 지역에 조성된 공장에서 발생하는 사업장 배수의 유입으로 인해 심각하게 오염되어 신갈 저수지의 오염을 가중시키고 있다. 현재 용인시에서는 기흥 호수공원을 2010년까지 신갈 저수지 일대 118만평에 여가와 문화, 휴양시설이 연계된 대규모 유원지로 조성한다는 계획을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 신갈 저수지의 퇴적물 오염도를 조사하여 호수공원 조성 시 기초 데이터의 확충 및 현황파악을 위하여 신갈 저수지의 퇴적물에 대한 모니터링을 실시하였다. 측정 시기는 1차(2007년 7월)와 2차(2007년 10월)로 총 2회 실시하였으며, 조사 지점선정은 수역 전체의 특성을 가장 대표할 수 있는 지점(호심 또는 가장 깊은 곳 등), 주요 유입하천수가 유입된 후 충분히 혼합되는 지점, 호수가 유출되는 지점, 폐수나 하수의 유입으로 항상 오염이 인정되는 지점을 고려하여 신갈저수지의 6지점을 선정하여 조사하였다. 퇴적물 분석항목 중 VS, COD, T-N, T-P, 중금속 농도를 중심으로 신갈 저수지의 퇴적물 오염도를 조사하였다. 각 지점별 1차 퇴적물 조사 결과, VS $23.1{\sim}46.6\;g/kg$, COD $8.5{\sim}26.4\;mg/g$, T-N $0.35{\sim}1.52\;mg/g$, T-P $0.60{\sim}1.05\;mg/g$ 등의 농도로 조사되었으며, 중금속은 수은, 시안, 카드뮴은 검출되지 않았고 구리의 농도는 $0.1{\sim}0.6\;mg/kg$, 납의 농도는 $2.1{\sim}3.5\;mg/kg$로 조사되었다. 또한 각 지점별 2차 퇴적물 조사 결과, VS $22.8{\sim}41.4\;g/kg$, COD $7.9{\sim}21.5\;mg/g$, T-N $0.31{\sim}1.44\;mg/g$, T-P $0.82{\sim}1.01\;mg/g$ 등의 농도로 조사되었으며, 중금속은 수은, 시안, 카드뮴은 검출되지 않았고 구리의 농도는 $0.2{\sim}0.7\;mg/kg$, 납의 농도는 $2.4{\sim}3.8\;mg/kg$로 조사되었다. 본 연구의 조사 결과는 앞으로 호수공원이 조성되는 신갈 저수지를 효율적으로 관리함에 있어 중요한 근거자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The clear-water phase (CWP) is a notable limnological phenomenon in freshwater systems caused by predatory interactions between large filter-feeding zooplankton and phytoplankton. However, the mechanisms and factors that influence the extent of CWP, particularly in complex water systems with both fluvial and lacustrine characteristics, remain poorly understood. The present study evaluated CWP occurrence patterns at different sites in a large reservoir located in a temperate monsoon region (Lake Paldang, Korea); the relationships among factors associated with CWP occurrence, such as transparency, zooplankton diversity, and chlorophyll a concentration were investigated. Transparency exhibited significant correlations with precipitation and retention time, as well as the relative abundance of zooplankton (p<0.01), suggesting that a change in the retention time due to precipitation can alter CWP. Data collected before and after CWP occurrence were analyzed using paired t-test to determine variations in CWP occurrence based on the water system characteristics. The results demonstrated that various factors were associated with CWP occurrence in the fluvial-type and lacustrine-type sites. The correlation between zooplankton biomass and transparency was stronger in the lacustrine-type sites than in the fluvial-type sites. The lacustrine-type sites, where cladoceran emergence is common and is associated with long retention times, favored CWP occurrence. The results suggest that lacustrine-type sites, which are conducive to zooplankton development and have relatively long retention times, enhance CWP occurrence. Furthermore, CWP occurrence was notable in spring, and the present study revealed that site-specific CWP could occur throughout the year, regardless of the season.

This study aimed to determine the relationship between rainfall-discharge patterns and maior aquatic environmental factors in a river-type reservoir. Specifically, daily monitoring was conducted in Paltang Reservoir from January 1999 to December 2001. Observation of the daily changes of the environment factors showed that natural meteorological factors and hydrological factors causing the change of water discharge had a major effect on the aquatic environment. Rainfall was the main source of hydrological changes, with its frequency a possible direct variable governing the range of discharge changes. Rainfall was weak in November${\sim}$May and heavy in June${\sim}$October (heavist in summer). The range of water discharge was greatest during summer (July to September) and lowest during winter (January to February). A principal component analysis (PCA) showed that aquatic environmental factors could be classified into three different types in the pattern of annual variation. First, type I included water temperature, turbidity, water color and organic matter (COD), which increased with increasing water discharge. Second, type ll consisted of DO and pH, which decreased with increasing water discharge. Third, type III included conductivity, alkalinity and chloride ion, which showed middle values with increasing water discharge. Monthly variation of aquatic environments explained by the first two dimensions of the PCA suggests that aquatic environments of Paltang Reservoir may have annual cycle typical of river-type reservoirs depending on hydrological factor such as water discharge.
