본 연구는 섬진강 하구역에서 저서다모류군집의 시 공간적 분포 및 환경 요인과의 상관관계를 파악하기 위해 2012년 4월부터 2013년 2월까지 24개의 정점을 대상으로 소조시 만조 때 조사를 실시하였다. 수질환경요인으로 염도, 수온, 용존산소, pH 등을 측정한 결과를 바탕으로 조사지역은 세 해역으로 구분하였다. 각 정점별 환경 특성 차이에 따라 Saline Water Zone(SWZ), Brackish Water Zone(BWZ), Fresh Water Zone(FWZ)으로 정의하였다. SWZ은 대개 30 psu를 상회하였으며, BWZ에서는 염도가 급격히 감소하였고, FWZ에서는 거의 0 psu를 보였다. SWZ에서는 수온의 계절 변동이 가장 적었으며, DO는 가장 낮은 값을, pH는 시공간적 변동이 거의 없이 일정한 값을 유지하였다. 반면 FWZ에서는 수온의 계절 변동이 심하였으며, DO는 가장 높은 값을, pH는 시공간적 변동이 가장 심하였다. 표층퇴적상은 SWZ에서는 니질(Mud)함량이 높았으며 BWZ에서는 사질(Sand)함량이 높게 나타났고 FWZ에서는 사질(Sand)이나 자갈(Gravel)함량이 높게 나타났다. 그 외 유기물함량과 황화물량은 SWZ에서 높은 값을, Chl-a 량은 FWZ에서 높은 값을 보였다. 조사해역은 염도가 낮으며 유기물 함량, 황화물량이 낮고 조립한 퇴적상을 보이는 Fresh Water Zone과 염도가 높으며, 유기물함량, 황화물량이 높고, 세립한 퇴적상을 보이는 Saline Water Zone으로 조사지역의 환경이 뚜렷이 대비됨을 보여주고 있다. 섬진강 하구역에서 출현한 저서다모류의 출현종수와 서식밀도는 Salline Water Zone에서 가장 높았으며, Brackish Water Zone으로 갈수록 점점 감소하였고, Fresh Water Zone에서 매우 낮았다. Brackish Water Zone의 경우 서식밀도의 계절 변동이 매우 심하였는데, 이는 Prionospio cirrifera의 극우점 출현에 의한 것이다. 섬진강 하구역에서 출현한 저서다모류 중 매 계절 상위 5.0%의 점유율을 보이는 우점종은 총 6종이었다. 이 중 Lumbrineris longifolia, Prionoispio cirrifera, Tharyx sp.는 매 계절 주요 우점종으로 출현하였다. 그 외에 Hediste sp., Praxillella affinis, Tylorrhynchus sp.가 조사 시기에 따라서 우점종으로 출현하기도 하였다. 우점 출현 다모류들은 특징적으로 분포하는 해역이 뚜렷이 구분되었다. Saline Water Zone의 대표적인 종은 Lumbrineris longifolia, Tharyx sp., Mediomastus sp.이었다. Saline Water Zone에서부터 Brackish Water Zone까지의 해역에 폭넓게 걸쳐 출현하는 종은 Prionospio cirrifera, Aricidea sp., Heteromastus filiformis이었다. 그리고 Brackish Water zone의 내륙쪽 정점 일부와 Fresh Water Zone에서는 특징적으로 Tylorrhynchus sp., Hediste sp.가 우점 출현하였다. 섬진강 하구역에서 채집된 저서다모류의 출현종 조성과 정점간 유사도지수에 근거하여 집괴분석(Cluster Analysis) 및 비계량적 다차원척도법(non-metric Multidimensional Scaling)을 실시한 결과, 모든 계절에서 Saline Water Zone과 Fresh Water Zone에 위치하는 정점들은 각각 대표적인 하나의 정점군으로 구분되었다. 반면 Brackish Water Zone의 경우는 계절에 따라 수개의 정점군으로 세분되었다. 저서환경 요인과 저서다모류군집의 생태학적 요인들 간의 Pearson 상관관계분석과 주성분분석(PCA) 결과, 염도, 퇴적상, 유기물함량, DO 등이 저서다모류군집의 제반 생태학적 지수(출현종수, 서식밀도, 주요 종의 출현량, 생태지수)의 공간 분포를 결정짓는데 매우 중요한 역할을 하는 환경요인임이 확인되었다.

해수에 의해 염분의 영향을 받는 기수호(brackish lake)인 송지호의 퇴적물(sediment), 대수층 충진재(aquifer materials), 지표수, 지하수를 채수 및 채취하여 분석하고, 해당 시료를 이용하여 염분의 영향을 받는 혼합대(hyporheic zone)를 모사하는 pilot scale 컬럼 실험을 진행하였다. 지하수의 상향류 실험 결과, 소량의 염분을 포함한 지하수가 대수층 및 퇴적물로 용승하며 낮은 용존산소 농도를 유지하였다. 또한 대수층에서 염분과 낮은 용존산소로 인해 부분 탈질(partial denitrification)이 발생해 NO₂^-의 축적이 확인되었다. 퇴적물에서는 긴 체류시간에 의해 질소계 화합물이 흡착되거나 미생물 매개의 산화/환원 반응으로 인해 질소계 화합물 농도가 저감되었다. 지표수의 하향류 실험 결과, 높은 농도의 용존산소와 염분을 포함한 기수호의 지표수가 퇴적물과 대수층으로 침투하며 높은 용존산소 농도를 공급하였다. 이로인해 퇴적물과 대수층에서 생물학적 질산화(nitrification)가 발생하였고, 지표수의 높은 염분 농도에도 불구하고 질소계 오염물질이 저감되었다. 이를 통해, 염분의 영향을 받는 상향류의 혼합대의 경우 낮은 용존산소 농도로 부분 탈질이 발생하며 염분에 의해 NO₂^-가 축적되고, 하향류의 혼합대의 경우 높은 용존산소 농도에 의해 질산화가 발생하며 염분의 영향을 크게 받지 않는다. 이를 통해 기수호 내 염분이 혼합대의 질소 거동에 일부 영향을 미치나 DO, pH, 기질 농도, 유기물질 농도 등의 요인이 복합적으로 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.

Indirect oxidation using chlorine species oxidizing agents is often effective in wastewater treatment using an electrochemical oxidation process. When chlorine ions are contained in the wastewater, oxidizing agents of various chlorine species are produced during electrolysis. In a ballast water management system, it is also used to treat ballast water by electrolyzing seawater to produce a chlorine species oxidizer. However, ballast water in the brackish zone and some wastewater has a low chlorine ion concentration. Therefore, it is necessary to study the chlorine generation current efficiency at various chlorine concentration conditions. In this study, the chlorine generating current efficiency of a boron-doped diamond(BDD) electrode and insoluble electrodes are compared with various chloride ion concentrations. The results of this study show that the current efficiency of the BDD electrode is better than that of the insoluble electrodes. The chlorine generation current efficiency is better in the order of BDD, MMO(mixed metal oxide), $Ti/RuO_2$, and $Ti/IrO_2$ electrodes. In particular, when the concentration of sodium chloride is 10 g/L or less, the current efficiency of the BDD electrode is excellent.

The purpose of this reaserch is to analyze the charateristics of water quality in space through the operation of ARA River in Artificial Rivers of the Brackish Water Zone. The spatial distribution measured water temperature and salt levels for the surface, middle and deep layers by dividing the four areas of Incheon, Sicheon, Gyeyang and Gimpo. Water temperature did not vary much by water depth and branch, and its purpose is to maintain stable water environment through correlation analysis and operation. To examine the temporal and spatial distribution patterns of the Arachon, we measured DO on the Incheon branch, Sicheon, Gyeyang and Gimpo branch twice a month, and on the surface, the temperature level, The water temperature did not vary much by depth and location, and the water temperature in January and March tended to rise from Incheon to Gimpo, with the average difference of 1.1 degrees during the same period. The salinity difference between Incheon and Gimpo sites was 3.3 psu deep and 5.4 psu deep. In particular, floodgates from July to September are found to be less than 10psu overall, which is considered to be a gas due to the effects of floods and the inflow of Gulpo Stream. D.O. is located in some areas due to summer rains. The hypoxic layer has been identified.Analysis of seasonal data shows that water temperature and DO are strongly correlated in autumn. It was found that the water temperature and salt levels in the fall showed a weak correlation.

Background: This study focused on the diet of Clithon retropictum, level II endangered species in Korea. Since the development of brackish water zones has led to a decline in the population of this species, to obtain information on the ecology of C. retropictum required for its conservation and restoration. To investigate the actual preys of C. retropictum in south coast of Korea, we conducted high-throughput sequencing and metabarcoding techniques to extract DNA from gut contents and periphyton in their habitats. Results: Total 118 taxonomic groups were detected from periphyton samples. 116 were Chromista and Cyanobacteria dominated in the most samples. In gut contents samples, 98 taxonomic groups were detected. Similar to the results of periphyton, 96 were Chromista and Cyanobacteria dominated in the most samples. In the principal component analysis based on the presence/absence of taxonomic groups, gut content composition showed more clustered patterns corresponding to their habitats. Bryophyta was the most crucial taxonomic group explaining the difference between periphyton and gut contents compositions of C. retropictum. Conclusions: Our finding suggests that C. retropictum may not randomly consume epilithic algae but instead, likely to supplement their diet with Bryophyta.

The physico-chemical factors, the distribution of chlorophyll and the primary production of the lakes Hwajinpo, Yongrangho, Chunchonho, Uiamho, Soyangho and Changjamot have been studied in order to make ecological comparison among these lakes during summer stagnation period of August to September of 1973. On the basis of the characteristics of these lakes, the lake types have been discussed. Thermocline is observed at 3-4m zone in the lake Changjamot and 4-5m zone in the lake Yongrangho. In the case of lake Hwajinpo and impoundments, the distinct thermal stratification is not observed at the summer stagnation period. As to vertical distribution of dissolved oxygen, a positive heterograde curve is obtained in the lakes Hwajinpo and Yongrangho. In the lake Changjamot the typical clinograde curve and the oxygen depletion in hypolimnion are observed. In the case of impoundments, however, the orthograde curve is observed in the lakes Chunchonho and Uiamho. While in the lake Soyangho, any stratification of the disssolved oxygen is not found. In the brackish lakes, such as lakes Hwajinpo and Yongragho, the salinity of hypolimnion is found to be much higher than that of epilimnion. In the lake Hwajinpo, the salinity of hypolimnion is exhibited 32.7$\textperthousand$, which is nearly the same as sea water. The distribution of nitrogenous compounds and phosphates is found to be high in the lake Changjmot. The silicate is also found in high concentration in the lake Chunchonho, and the distribution of nutrients in the brackish lakes is generally low. As to the vertical distribution of chlorophyll level, the lake Changjamot shows a stratum type and the brackish lakes L-type stratification. In the impoundments, lakes Chunchonho and Uiamho appear to be homogeneous type. Seasonal variation of chlorophyll level in the lake Changjamot is examined from January to September 1973. The vertical distribution of chlorophyll during the period of circulation from January to April is homogeneous type and is stratum type thereafter. The maximum chlorophyll level is 277.4mg/$m^2$ on June 23 and the pattern of seasonal variation of chlorophyll level is comparable to the type of eutrophy. The horizontal distribution of chlorophyll level is studied in the brackish lakes, Hwajinpo and Yongrangho. The pattern of distribution is found to be an irregular type. On the basis of measurements of primary production by means of the carbon-14 method and the distribution of chlorophyll level, it is concluded that the interior part of the lake Hwajinpo and Changjamot are eutrophic and the exterior part of the lake Hwajinpo, lake Yongrangho and the impoundments, lake Uiambo and Soyangho are mesotrophic.
