녹조로 널리 알려진 남조류 과다증식은 심미적 불쾌감뿐만 아니라 독성물질을 생성하기 때문에 댐 수질 관리에 있어 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 녹조 발생을 억제하기 위하여 호소 유역으로부터 유입되는 비점오염물질 특히, 영양염류 저감이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 친환경적 방법으로 알려진 인공습지의 장기간 운영 결과를 분석하여 비점오염물질 제어 수단으로서 인공습지의 적용 가능성 및 공정운영 관련 기초자료를 구축하기 위하여, 2014~2020년 동안 대청호 유역에 위치한 안내천 인공습지의 오염물질 처리효율을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, BOD 14.3%, COD 17.9%, SS 50.0%, T-N 19.0%, T-P 35.4%로 인공습지가 오염 물질 제거에 효과적임을 확인하였다. 계절별 처리효율은 오염물질별로 다른 경향을 보였는데, 주로 미생물의 반응에 의해 제거되는 BOD, COD, T-N은 겨울철에 비해 봄~가을에 높은 처리효율을 나타내었다. 그러나 수생식물에 의해 주로 제거되는 T-P는 처리효율에 있어 겨울에도 안정적인 처리효율을 나타내 호소 유입부하를 저감하는 데 효과적임을 확인하였다. 오염부하에 따른 제거율은 모든 오염물질이 유입수의 중간농도 및 고농도 구간에서 유출수 농도가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 초기 강우와 같은 고부하 조건에서도 인공습지가 호소로 유입되는 비점오염물질을 안정적으로 제거해 호소의 부영양화를 억제하는 데 효과적으로 활용될 수 있음을 보여준다. 다만, 습지는 자연정화에 기반한 시설로 인위적인 공정 제어가 어렵기 때문에 향후 유역별 특성에 따라 다양한 운영사례 연구가 정립된다면 우리나라 호소의 녹조 문제 해결을 위해 유용한 방법이 될 것으로 판단된다.

The facility of constructed wet land combined with filter media was examined in order to improve the water quality of a polluted stream, which has been performed as a part of national projects. Throughout 2 years of operation for a stream, it can provide the design and operating parameters for the purpose of future construction. The influent flow rate was about 50% against the design capacity. The removal efficiencies of BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, SS, T-N and T-P were 62.9%, 47.1%, 74.8%, 22.4% and 33.5%, respectively. In order to keep this facility stable, the removal of surface filter media and supplement should be periodically conducted. In addition, the proper selection of sites is recommended not to be flooded.

Recent years, nationwide projects for ecological restoration are implemented with emerging issues on the stream ecosystem. In order to enhance effectiveness of the ecosystem restoration and reduce negative impact, the appraisal of effectiveness through the follow-up monitoring and the adaptive management process are executed in consecutive phase. In this study, planning phase, monitoring and adaptive management in Hakui stream which is part of An Yang stream restoration project is introduced as representative ongoing case of effective adaptive management. The aim of this study is to verify the adaptive management process and suggest direction of effective restoration. Restoration project of Hakui stream resulted in increasing number and diversity of species (vegetation, fish, bird, invertbrates, amphibian and reptilia) according to monitoring from 2004 to 2013, and enhancing natural river landscape by evaluation of river naturalness among 2001(before restoration), 2007 (after), 2015 (recent). However, excessive vegetation expansion or sediment deposition on channel over time caused unexpected results such as terrestrialization or degradation of habitats. Adaptive management action such as removing disturbance species (Humulus japonicus)(2007), coppicing willow (2007), release of march snail (2007), creation of wetland (2014) were implemented based on monitoring results. And then appraisal of management action was discussed.

The essence of a natural stream restoration project is providing habitats for various creatures in terms of the stream's environmental function. This research suggests the problems of natural stream restoration project by studying streams in terms of habitats for creatures and reviewing the national and international cases on existing natural stream restoration project. As a solution for the above, this research suggests a preservation method for biotope of upper stream areas focusing on the fish biotope area considering the ecological characteristics and preservation value of the respective stream so that the stream can be preserved as habitats for creatures. The research was carried out on Cheonglimli Baekcheon region which is an upper stream area of Buan-Dam located in the public park in Byunsanbando, Buangoon, Jeonlabookdo. We suggest the preservation method based on the habitat environment and keystone species of fish. The habitat environment evaluation was carried out mainly being divided into three groups namely, habitats and surrounding environment, reservoir's features and fish way and the diversity of fish. By improving the problematic elements discovered through such evaluation, it tries to improve the biotope of the stream and continuously preserve the stream. In addition, in order to restore the stream as habitats for various creatures, this research suggests to select keystone species which are suitable for the stream environment and restore the habitats based on the keystone species rather than restoring habitats for all species. Fish not only plays the role of a consumer of Epilithic algae and water beetles but also plays an important ecological role as a food for birds or small mammalia. If such ecologically important biotope for fish is preserved, the ecological environment of the stream will be maintained more stably.

We tried to analyze qualitatively a total of 110 the research papers which were related domestic ecological restoration technologies about 15 years through semantic network analysis in social network analysis. In order to understand the research trends of ecological restoration technologies, we analyzed the degree centrality and betweenness centrality of the Stream/Wetland, Slope, Soil/Others fields selected as Word Cloud. As a result, ecological restoration technologies have been changed. They were focused on the restoration of species or their habitats in the past. However, they have been evolved into the detailed systems to respond in unpredictable natural disasters and climate change, high-resolution image implementation technology to accurately grasp the practical environment and methods related to environmental restoration for human in urban ecosystem. In the future, investment and technology for the ecosystem restoration field will be continuously demanded for the symbiosis of human beings and species in the damaged ecosystem. Therefore, the research trend of ecological restoration technologies should be provided as reliable guidelines when decision makers establish the policy direction or when researchers select their subjects.

Since Gyungan stream is included in the protected zone of the water supply source of the Metropolitan area in Korea, the water quality needs to be continuously managed. Therefore, a measure is required that can inhibit the flow of water pollutant into the water body and facilitate the ecological restoration of riparian vegetation. A field survey was conducted on the hydrological characteristics of the landscape elements established on the downstream catchment of the Gyungan stream, the result of which showed that the paddy field and urbanized area can be regarded as point pollution sources. The upland field can be regarded as a non-point pollution source. In order to improve the water quality in the Paldang lake, we first recommended creating a riparian vegetation belt. We also suggested introducing a treatment wetland and an artificial plant island to places in which the creation of a riparian vegetation belt is not ensured. We recommend creating a treatment wetland equipped with diverse functional groups. For creating the plant island, we recommend Zizania latifolia and Typha orientalis, which showed the highest productivity among aquatic plants. The former could be introduced around the outlet of a paddy field and the estuary of tributaries, while the latter could be introduced to a water body directly sourced from mountainous land.

Phosphorous removal rate and emergent plant growth were examined of a surface-flow constructed treatment wetland system, whose dimensions were 31 meter in length and 12 meter in width. The system was established on floodplain in the down reach of the Kwangju Stream in Korea in one and half months from May to June 2001. Cattails(Typha angustiflora) were transplanted in the system. They were dug out of natural wetlands and stems were cut at about 40 cm height from their bottom ends. Water of the Kwangju Stream were funneled into it via a pipe by gravity flow and its effluent were discharged back into it. The stems of cattails grew from 45.2 cm in July 2001 up to 186 cm in September 2001 and the number of cattail stems per square meter increased from 22 in July 2001 to 53 in September 2001. The early establishment of cattails was good. Volume and water quality of inflow and outflow were analyzed from July 2001 through December 2001. Inflow averaged $40\;m^3/day$ and hydraulic retention time was about 1.5 days. The concentration of total phosphorous in influent and effluent was 0.85 mg/L, 0.41 mg/L, respectively. The average removal rate of total phosphorous in the system was about 52%. The retention efficiency was slightly lower, compared with that in surface-flow wetlands operating in North America, whose retention efficiency was reported to be about 57%. The lower abatement rate could result from the initial stage of the system and inclusion of two cold months into the six-month monitoring period. Root rhizosphere in wetland soils and litter-soil layers on bottoms were not properly developed. Increase of standing density of cattails within a few years will establish both root zones and substrates beneficial to the removal of phosphorous, which may lead to increase of the phosphorous retention rate. The system was submerged one time by heavy storm during the monitoring period. The inundation, however, scarcely disturb its environment.

The urban stream include the channel and its adjacent banks, or hillslopes and it consists of various landscape elements. The riparian ecosystem is important to people. Its water is extracted for irrigation and drinking supplies. Biodiversity and many wetland species are protected here. The riparian ecosystem is diverse and needs to be preserved well. So, it is necessary to measure the features of the urban stream accurately to figure out the change of the riparian ecosystem. However, the traditional Electronic Distance Measurement(EDM) surveying is difficult to measure the curvilinear features of the stream - e, g, angle, curve. The beacon Differential Global Positioning System(DGPS) can handle to measure the curvilinear shape. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to measure the change of the river bed in urban stream accurately using realtime beacon DGPS, and ultimately to provide the basic data for identifying the change of the river ecosystem.

본 연구는 농촌경관의 잔여경관요소로서 중요한 기능을 수행하고 있는 경작지 내 소규모 습지 및 소하천의 경관생태적 특성 및 가치분석을 토대로 현실적인 개선방안을 제시해 보는데 가장 큰 의의를 두고있다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 총 7개의 공간에서 출현하고 있는 습지비오톱의 경관생태적 특성분석 결과, 일례로 사례지 5의 경우 수면의 크기가 $10,600m^2$로 비교적 넓게 형성되어 있었으며, 수변의 기울기, 띠숲의 폭, 식생조성상태 등에서 매우 양호한 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 굴곡성은 사례지 8-1에서 주요 돌출부의 수가 2개로 가장 높았으며, 형태적 다양성 역시 1.47로 가장 높은 값을 보였다. 2) 습지비오톱의 문제점 분석 결과, 대부분의 습지들은 여과기능을 수행하기 위한 초본 띠숲의 폭이 1m 내외로 조성상태가 미흡한 것으로 분석되었으며, 특히 사례지 8에서 나타나고 있는 4곳의 습지들은 수변의 기울기가 $45^{\circ}$ 이상으로 사면식생이 생육하기에는 어려움이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 3) 총 6개의 공간에서 출현하고 있는 소하천의 경관 생태적 특성분석 결과, 일례로 사례지 4의 경우 수변 폭은 55m로 가장 넓었으며, 흙, 돌, 자갈 등의 자연재료로 형성되어 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 반면 사례지 2-2의 경우 수변 폭은 4m로 가장 좁았으며, 사면의 경사각은 $90^{\circ}$로 직각의 형태를 이루고 있었다. 또한 식생의 생육이 이루어지고 있지 못한 것으로 나타났던 바, 생태적 가치는 매우 낮은 것으로 평가되었다. 4) 소하천의 문제점 분석 결과, 사례지 2-1은 수변 띠숲의 폭이 5m 정도로 수변 폭에 비해 매우 좁았으며, 주변 경작지로부터 유해 화학물질이 여과없이 방류되고 있었다. 또한 사례지 2-2는 전구간이 콘크리트 포장면으로 형성되어 있으며, 직선적인 하천구조로 인해 자연정화 능력, 홍수방지, 생물서식공간 확보의 측면에서 그 기능이 매우 미약한 것으로 분석되었다. 5) 이상과 같은 경관생태적 특성분석, 문제점 분석 결과를 토대로, 습지의 경우 크게 형상, 식생, 지형구 조적 측면에서, 소하천의 경우 크게 종단구조, 횡단구조적 측면에서 주요 개선방안을 설정하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 최근 농촌지역의 대규모 개발사업, 농지정리사업 및 도로건설 등에서 야기되는 습지및 소하천의 훼손을 방지할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공해 줄 수 있을 것을 판단되며, 또한 이들의 추가조성을 위한 가이드라인을 제시해 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 그러나 본 연구의 결과를 타 지역으로 확대 적용해 나가기 위해서는 무엇보다 다양한 사례연구를 통한 객관화된 모형개발 및 검증이 뒷받침되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Sediment cores were obtained from Upo and Mokpo in Upo Wetland and core samples were divided by depth into 20 ~ 21 subsamples. The heavy metal concentrations of Fe, Mn, Zn, AS, Cu, Cd, Ni, Pb, and Cr in the sediments of each depth were determined by ICP-MS. The texture of sediemnts from Upo Wetland appeared to be clayey silt with average grain size of $7.52{\sim}11.15{\mu}m$ for physical properties. It was found to have a clear tendency of depth profile with respect to TOC and ignition loss. Organics were stabilized in the range of 0.5 ~ 0.7 % TOC and 8 ~ 9 % ignition loss in 30 years, whereas, the surficial sediments have the highest concentrations of about 3.0 % of TOC and 13 ~ 15 % ignition loss. Those are much higher than the values of the main stream, the Nakdong River, which reflects the deposit of biodegradable organics from plants and other lifes. The vertical distribution of heavy metals in two sediment cores was investigated to elucidate historical trends of heavy metals deposited into Upo wetland. The depth profile concentrations of each heavy metal were compared and discussed with the Concensus-Based Sediment Quality Guidelines for freshwater ecosystems. All the Cd data for the vertical distribution in the sediments were detected above PEC value for Cd, which predict harmful effects on sediment-dwelling organisms expected to occur frequently. The concentrations of Zn, Cu, and Cr in all sediment samples for depth profile were detected below the TEC values, which provided a basis predicting the absence of toxicity by Zn, Cu, and Cr.
