It has been known that the accurate estimates of 2-dimensional water quality model parameters are difficult for non-experts due to the complexity of theoretical background and input requirement and complicated inter-relationship between model Parameters. The main goal of this study is to Provide expert system for the optimal estimation of water quality model parameters, which is based on the development of chaining mechanism according to the sensitivity analysis of model parameter interactions and GUI interface system on ArcView Avenue. The selected study area is the 35.3- km main Han river starting from Paldang Dam site to the Point of Indo bridge and the tributary inflows including pollutant data are used for the system application and validation. The estimated main model parameters are 0.367 for transverse dispersion coefficient, 0.074 for and 0.162 for. It also shows that the simulated water quality constituents such as DO and BOD based on the estimated model parameters are well agreed with the observed ones. It can be concluded that the developed GIS-based expert system for water quality model parameter estimation and graphical representation of water quality analysis is useful for the scientific water quality management.

우리나라는 2012년에 4대강 사업을 통하여 수자원확보를 통한 가뭄대응전략으로 16개의 대형보가 건설되었고 영산강에는 승촌보와 죽산보 2개의 보가 건설되었다. 보의 건설로 흐름은 급격히 감소하여 정체구역의 수역이 확장되면서 여름에서 초가을까지 녹조현상은 매년 지속적으로 발생하고 있으며, 최근 국민들은 안전한 농산물의 안정적인 생산에 요구가 점증함에 따라 농업용수질 오염문제가 범국가적 문제로 대두되고 있고, 그 중요도 및 심각성이 점차 커져가고 있다(한강유역환경청, 2007). 많은 량의 물을 농업용수로 사용하고 있는 영산강의 녹조현상 및 수질개선이 절실하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 영산강의 승촌보와 죽산보의 건설과 수질오염총량관리제의 시행에 따른 부영양화특성의 변화를 파악하기 위하여 환경부, 국립환경과학원(2006)에서 개발한 한국형 부영양화지수(TSIko) 평가법을 이용하여 영산강유역의 12개 주요지점에 대하여 수집한 자료를 봄(3월~5월), 여름(6월~8월), 가을(9월~11월), 겨울(12월~2월)로 분리하고, 다시 4대강 사업의 영향을 검토하기 위하여 2013년을 전후하여 분리하였으며, 계절별 수질인자 COD, T-P, Chl-a 값을 이용하여 계절별 $TSI_{Ko}$를 산정하여 영양상태를 4개의 등급으로 구분하여 부영양화특성을 파악하였다.

In this paper the development of a real time river water quality management system is described. This system can manage a river water quality fluctuation by finding out abnormal conditions quickly and exactly. The GIS based monitoring system collects various properties of river water quality through the wireless real time network. Tanchun, the first branch of the Han River was selected as the target basin of the system development. This system is composed of three parts - wireless real time field measuring system with a GPS receiver, a server computer and a GIS platform. After the first field test in Tanchun basin, the result showed the many possibilities of measuring various water quality properties in real time and storing the data and analyzing them within the GIS environment in real time in very efficient manners. It is expected that the developed system will contribute to the efficient management of a river water quality control and water quality related disaster prevention purposes.

기후변화로 인한 가뭄 및 홍수 등의 이상 현상은 유역의 수자원에 미치는 영향이 크기 때문에 이에 대한 예측 및 적응방안을 마련하는 부분이 대두되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유역의 수자원 관리를 위하여 단위유역에서의 수자원 취약성을 평가하고자 하였다. 평가 지표는 기후 및 사회 경제 환경적 측면을 고려하여 선정하였으며, 취약성 정의에 따라 수량 및 수질/수생태에 대하여 각각 노출, 민감도, 적응능력으로 구성하였다. 이후 다기준 의사결정기법(Multi-criteria Decision Making, MCDM) 중 TOPSIS(Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution)를 적용하여 각각의 통합 취약성을 도출하였다. 지표 자료는 2010년을 기준으로 국가 통계 자료를 통해 수집하였으며, 유출량과 증발산량 자료는 준분포형 장기유출모형인 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool) 모형의 모의 자료(2005~2014)를 활용하였다. 또한, 지표에 대한 가중치는 전문가 설문조사를 통해 산정한 주관적 가중치(Subjective weight)와 수집된 자료를 통하여 산정한 객관적 가중치(Objective weight)로 구분하여 적용하였다. 인구 및 산업의 밀집도가 높은 한강권역에 대하여 표준단위유역(평균 $145km^2$)의 취약성을 평가하였으며, 각각의 취약성 우선 순위를 확인하였다. 수량 취약성의 경우에는 경기 강원북부와 충정도 일부 지역이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 수질/수생태는 수도권 등 비교적 하류에 위치한 지역의 취약성 순위가 좀 더 높았다. 가중치 적용 방법에 따른 공간분포의 차이는 수질/수생태 취약성이 더 크게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Long-term data (Ministry of Environment Water Quality Monitoring data) of phytoplankton biomass (chlorophyll a) and water quality were analyzed to investigate trends in biomass of the primary producers and water quality for the estuarine systems in Korea: Sumjin River, Han River, Asan Lake- Bay, Youngsan River, Keum River and Nakdong River. The literatures were also reviewed to examine the characteristics of phytoplankton biomass and water quality in the estuarine systems. The Sumjin River estuary, the single estuary without a dike in Korea showed the characteristics similar to other typical estuarine systems. Phytoplankton biomass was high during the fall at transitional regions (5 ${\sim}$ 15 psu) after riverine freshwater inputs were increased in summer. Concentrations of the nitrate and silicate were increased with the high river discharge rates. Phytoplankton biomass and nutrient concentrations were high during spring at the lower regions in the Han River whereas phytoplankton biomass and nutrient concentrations were high during spring at the upper regions in the Youngsan River. Phytoplankton biomass was the highest in the Asan Lake and nutrient concentrations were high at the upper region of the lake. In Nakdong River, phytoplankton biomass was high during winter and the biomass was slightly higher at upper region than at lower region. Long-term trends showed that total nitrogen and total phosphorus were mostly increased in the river systems. Implications of these results relevant to the water quality management for the river systems were also discussed.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the water quality and phytoplankton community in Bukhan River which account for 44.4 % of the total inflow into Lake Paldang, using multivariate statistical techniques (i.e., correlation analysis, principal component analysis (PCA)/factor analysis (FA)). Water samples were collected from March to November 2015 and the following parameters measured; water temperature, pH, DO, EC, SS, BOD, Chl-a, COD, TN, $NO_3-N$, $NH_3-N$, TP, DTP, $PO_4-P$, and phytoplankton community. The water quality of the main stream and the tributaries were not significantly different apart from the relatively high concentration of BOD, COD and nutrients recorded in MH. The highest cell density of Stephanodiscus hantzschii and Merismopedia glauca dominated phytoplankton was observed in PD. Based on the correlation analysis, total phytoplankton and cyanophyceae were highly correlated with BOD, COD and nutrients. PCA/FA resulted in four main factors accounting for 82.240 % of the total variance in the water quality dataset. The group of component 1 (TN, DTN, DO, $NO_3-N$, water temperature) and component 2 ($PO_4-P$, T-P, DTP, SS) were classified as nutrient element factor whereas component 3 (Chl-a, COD, BOD, $NH_3-N$, pH) was related to organic substances. Hence, the identification of the main potential environmental pollution factors in Bukhan River will help policy makers make better and more informed decisions on how to improve the water quality.

Climate change causes fluctuations in water quality in the aquatic environment, which can cause changes in water circulation patterns and severe adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems in the future. Therefore, research is needed to predict and respond to water quality changes caused by climate change in advance. In this study, we tried to predict the dissolved oxygen (DO), chlorophyll-a, and turbidity of the Paldang reservoir for about two weeks using long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent units (GRU), which are deep learning algorithms based on recurrent neural networks. The model was built based on real-time water quality data and meteorological data. The observation period was set from July to September in the summer of 2021 (Period 1) and from March to May in the spring of 2022 (Period 2). We tried to select an algorithm with optimal predictive power for each water quality parameter. In addition, to improve the predictive power of the model, an important variable extraction technique using random forest was used to select only the important variables as input variables. In both Periods 1 and 2, the predictive power after extracting important variables was further improved. Except for DO in Period 2, GRU was selected as the best model in all water quality parameters. This methodology can be useful for preventive water quality management by identifying the variability of water quality in advance and predicting water quality in a short period.

To recommend ecological flow for major tributaries in Han River basin, the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM) have been applied. In particular physical habitat simulation using PHABSIM have been selected for microhabitat variables and QUAL2E model have been used to implement macrohabitat simulation. Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) for different life stages in accordance with different hydraulic variables (depth and velocity) have been presented by the field surveying data. We review IFIM procedures and discuss limitations of habitat simulation with specific reference to Han River basin. The results of this research can be used as reference flow for estimation of instream flow in Han River.

The quantity point has been considered prior to the quality point in the water resources development and management. However, the quality problems have become as important as quantity problems due to the industrialization and civilization. This paper presents a methodology of the integrated management of multiple reservoir systems by considering both water quantity and quality problems. It also presents a long-term forecasting technique of reservoir water quality by using the developed phosphorous model. The methodology was applied to the Han river reservoirs operation, in which five major reservoirs were considered. The result shows that the spatially and temporally distributed water quantity and quality resources can be utilized by meeting all the required constraints.

The auto-and cross-correlation function, power spectrum, coherence function and Markov model are applied to investigate the statistical characteristics of discharge and each factor of water quality and the interrelation-ship between the variation of discharge and water quality factors. The analysis of discharge, dissolved oxygen and electric conductivity, which were only obtainable data at the Indogyo gagining station in the downstream of the Han River, clearly showed that they hace distinct period of 12 months and three different periods of 6, 4 and 3 months weaker than the former. The cross-correlation between the discharge and water quality(DO, COND) is rather weak and the crosscorrelation function has its peak at lag one. It is considered therefrom that the variation of discharge behaves on water quality facotrs with one day's difference. In the examination of linear regression model for the serial generation and predictive measures, discharge series is fit to first and second order Markov model and DO, COND to first order Markov model.
