This paper attempts to quantify the economic value of the recreational benefits from the Jangheung dam. To this end, the contingent valuation (CV) survey was administrated to a sample of randomly selected 1,000 households from the national population. We used single-bounded model as a method of eliciting the willingness to pay (WTP) and applied a spike model to deal with zero WTP responses (72.5%) from the CV survey. The respondents were asked to state whether to pay a given amount through additional higher income tax once a year for next ten years. The results show that the annual recreational benefits of the Jangheung dam are estimated to be 1,348 won per household, which is statistically significant at the 1% level. Expanding the value to the national population gives us 24.9 billion won per year.

This study was carried out to assess the variations of water quality caused by the dam construction on the river. Six dams-Yongdam, Miryang, Hoengseong, Boryeong, Jangheung and Buan- constructed recently in Korea were selected for the study. Chemical oxygen demand(COD) was increased in the initial stage of water storage at dams compared to the lotic(river) environment, but after 3 years it was maintained lower and stabilized concentrations. Five dams except for Jangheung Dam were maintained Ia~Ib grade conditions under the water quality criteria of Korea. The concentrations of total nitrogen(T-N) were decreased under the lentic(reservoir) environment compared to the river status. Total phosphorus(T-P) was decreased 13~63% at the reservoir condition. We concluded that increase of COD concentration was due to the debris organic materials of the land, but temporary phenomenon. T-N and T-P concentrations were decreased at the lentic condition compared to the lotic.

The objective of this study was to monitor the regenerated process of natural vegetation on the rear-slope of Jangheung multi-purpose dam using the recycling eco-revegetation technique. The monitoring plots were established in May 2004 and the plots were monitored in May 2004 and October 2005. Flora, plant community structures, naturally introduced plants, death rates were monitored. The change of flora after wood chip mulching decreased in family and species, but the influence of vine tree was extended. The urbanization index declined. Naturally introduced species and death ratios at the monitoring plot had a tendency to a higher increase in the deciduous broad-leaved forest.

At the Jangheung multipurpose dam, which is on the Tamjin River, a trapping and trucking operation was established to maintain continuous upstream migration of fish,. To facilitate fish gathering, installation of an effective fishing trap was required. In this study, we evaluated the fish trap, established at the Jangheung dam, using PIT (Passive Integrated Transponder) telemetry. A total of 254 individuals from 15 species were monitored. Among these tagged species, 36 individuals from 6 species (Carassius auratus, C. cuvieri, Zacco temminckii, Z. platypus, Pungtungia herzi, and Pseudobagrus koreanus) were detected; a 14.2% detection rate. C. auratus recorded the highest detection rate of 44.2% while P. herzi was 14.3%. Z. temminckii and Z. platypus showed relatively low detection, 5% and 7.7% respectively. Some of individuals from C. auratus and Z. platypus did not pass through the antenna at the first attempt but were continuously detected on multiple days. There were no statistical differences in body size (total length, standard length and body weight) of individuals that did or did not swim into the trap (Mann-Whitney U test, p>0.05). Fish mainly swam into the trap during outflow of water from the dam (Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.001) and showed a higher detection frequency in daytime than nighttime (Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.001). Thus, for fish movement into the trap, external factors such as outflow from dam and time of day have important roles. Based on detection rate, not all fishes showed upstream migration but represented selective migration. Consequently, the establishment of flexible outflow strategies that take into consideration ecological characteristics of fishes should required for improving the efficiency of fishway.

This research is about the monitoring of people's consciousness on ecosystem change after coastal restoration project in Gangjin Bay. Tidal flat ecosystem of Ganjin Bay was major producing district of short-necked clam in Jeonnam Province. Owing to coastal restoration project (sand gathering and dredging) during 5 years, however, ecosystem was disturbed and harvesting of fish was decreased. Although a few of ark shell and oyster are harvested but drastically decreased. Even aging and depopulation is general situation like other rural regions, life pattern of villages and depopulation in Gangjin Bay was influenced by drastic decreasing of income. As the results of social monitoring, drastic decreasing of fish and shell in Gangjin Bay is significantly concerned with coastal restoration project (sand gathering and dredging) and also with difficulty of fresh-water inflow to coastal bay because of Jangheung Dam. In order to get the detail information on the cause and consequence of ecosystem change in tidal flat, it is necessary to apply the long-term socio-economic monitoring as well as biological and ecosystem monitoring.

To investigate foodweb of aquatic ecosystem in the Tamjin River, carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes ratios of aquatic organisms, as well as environmental indicators based on the water, were determined in this study. Various organisms such as fishes (Coreoperca kawamebari, Zacco platypus, Cobitis lutheri, and Pungtungia herzi) and periphyton (epilithon and epiphyte), and particulate- and coarse particulate organic matters (POM and CPOM) were collected in upper (Tamjin River, Yuchi Stream, and Omcheon Stream) and lower (TJ-1~TJ-5) reaches of Jangheung Dam. The nitrate concentration and ${\delta}^{15}N$ signature of POM and organisms (invertebrates and fish) were found to be more enriched toward the downstream section of the river. It was determined that allochthonous matter occurring from a tributary alters the chemical character of water, as well as the isotopic signature of organisms contained therein. Attached algae (ephilithon) were identified as a base component of the benthic foodchain further downstream.

현재 우리나라는 기후변화가 심화되고 강우의 불확실성이 높아지면서 자연 재해와 홍수 피해가 증가하고 있고 이에 따른 댐이나 보 운영의 고도화가 요구되고 있다. 특히 댐의 경우 다양한 원인에 의해 상류와 하류에서 홍수 피해가 빈번하게 발생하기도 하며, 방류 조절에 따라 담수 유입으로 인한 해수의 염도 변화나 수질 오염 등의 결과를 야기시킨다. 따라서 효율적인 댐 운영을 위해서는 방류량에 대한 지속적인 검증 측정이 필요하며, 유역 내 상하류 유출 특성 변화에 대한 모니터링이 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 탐진강 유역에 위치한 장흥군(별천교)관측소와 장흥군(예양교)관측소를 대상으로 가동보 운영과 식생영향, 취수영향, 공사에 따른 수위-유량관계 변화를 분석하였다. 탐진강 최상류에 위치한 장흥군(별천교)관측소의 경우 2013년 이후 유량조사가 이루어지지 않아 2021년 하류 가동보 수문 운영 조건과 수중식생 영향, 취입보 운영 조건에 따른 변화를 모니터링하고 유량측정을 실시하여 수위-유량관계의 변동성을 분석하였다. 또한 탐진강 하류에 위치한 장흥군(예양교)관측소는 기존 설치되어 있던 상하류 가동보에 대해 철거공사가 금년 진행되었으며, 이에 따른 지속적인 모니터링과 유량측정을 통해 흐름 특성 변화를 분석하였다. 추가로 저평수기와 홍수기에 장흥댐 수문 방류량에 대한 검증 측정을 수행하여 고시된 방류량과 실측된 방류량을 각각 적용하여 탐진강 유역 유출 특성 변화에 대해 분석하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서는 탐진강 유역 하천 내의 보 운영과 식생, 취수, 공사영향에 따른 모니터링과 유량측정을 통해 신뢰도 높은 수위-유량관계곡선식을 개발하였고, 이를 통해 생산된 유량자료는 정확도가 매우 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 장흥댐 수문 방류량에 대해 실제 측정된 방류량을 유출 분석에 적용한 결과 향상된 결과를 보였으며 정상적인 상하류 관계를 나타냈다.
