In this study, specific pollutant releases during the Asian monsoon season were estimated and the information was applied to the non-point pollutant sources management from two forested watersheds of the Soyang Lake. The two watersheds are part of the 2,703 km2 Soyang Lake watershed in the northern region of the Han River. The outlets of the two watersheds were respectively analyzed for continuous water quality concentration and for discharge during various single rainfall events. Statistical power function methods are utilized to compare stream discharge and pollutant flux release during the study period. Based on the monitoring data during the study period, the specific load flux method using simulated discharge was conducted and validated in the two watersheds. The model predictions corresponded well with the measured and calculated pollutant releases. The modeling approach taken in this study was found to be applicable for the two forested watersheds.

Lately water quality of Daechong Reservoir has become more eutrophicated than ever before and there has been much concern over especially the eutrophication of the embayment near Daejon and Chongju Water Intake Tower every summer. The purpose of this study is to predict the impact of change in the pollutant loading, flowrate, nitrogen and phosphorus release from sediment, SOD(sediment oxygen demand) upon the water quality of Daechong Reservoir by WASP5/EUTR05 in order to suggest water quality management alternatives. The data of Sep. 1995 were used for the calibration of the model and those of Sep. 1997 was for verification. The result of the modeling can be summarized as follows. 1. The 50% increase(decrease) of pollutant loading has caused that of T-N concentration by 0.10-0.14 mg/l, T-P concentration by 0.003-0.005 mg/l, and CBOD concentration by 0.16-0.18 mg/l. But the ratio of DO change by the change of pollutant loading was relatively small. 2. The sensitivity test of NH4 flux to T-N and that of P04 flux to T-P shows that T-N and T-P concentration were changed more in the epilimnion segments (SEG4, SEG5, SEG6, SEG7) than the other segments. As SOD increases, DO was predicted to decrease more especially in the hypolimnion (SEG9-SEG14). 3. As flowrate increase, the concentration of T-N, T-P, and CBOD were predicted to decrease, but DO concentration increased especially in the hypolimnion segments(SEG11, SEG12, SEG13, and SEG14). As the flowrate changed from $119m^3/sec$ to $50m^3/sec$, the concentration of T-N and CBOD in the hypolimnion was predicted to decrease.
