Juam lake is a major water reservoir for the industrial and agricultural activities as well as the residental life of Kwangju and Chonnam regions. However, the water quality of the lake is getting worse due to a large quantity inflowing to the lake. The excessive growth of algae by the overfertilization may result in water treatment problems and also the interference with desirable water uses of navigation, aesthetics, recreation, and aquatic ecosystem. Thus the purpose of this study is to investigate the species and their amount of planktons in the lake and the relationship between the P loading amount and the chlorophyll-a used as a primary productivity index. The results of the investigation show that (1) the predominant species of algae are Microcystis aeruginosa, Anabaena affinis, Melosira granulata, Synedra acus, and Coelastrum cambricum, (2) the trophic state of the lake can be classified as eutrophic, and (3) there is close relation between the P loading amount and the chlorophyll-a.

The ethanol-and water-extracts of curled tops and stalks of young bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) fronds in raw and cooked states were examined for their mutagenicity by Ames test using Salmonella typhymurium mutants. Even a small amount of water extract from raw bracken was mutagenic to TA 1538 strain without addition of $S_9$ mix whereas a strong toxicity appeared at higher levels of the extractive. With $S_9$ mix, the water-extract from raw bracken was not mutagenic at all and not toxic to all strains tested, The amount of water-extract from cooked bracken was one-tenth of the amount from raw bracken and the water-extract showed no mutagenic effect to all strains tested. Ethanol-extract of bracken showed no mutagenicity in any case.

Amount of coastal ground water discharge(CGD) of surficial aquifer via coastlines of Nakdong River watershed, Seomjin River watershed, Youngsan River watershed and Keum River watershed is estimated. Compared to other major hydrological components, such as evapo-transpiration and river discharge, CGD is not so large in the amount. However, it is important since coastal ground water can be developed relatively free of environmental impact on downstream area and since most of coastal areas currently suffers water shortage. Regional groundwater investigation data and assessment based on Darcy's law are used for estimating coastal groundwater discharge. In this work the amount of CGD across the coastlines of the four rivers is estimated as 1.8 billion cubic meter per year and that is about 2.3 percentage of total amount of annual precipitation. Nakdong River watershed is most appropriate region in view of developing groundwater.

Cotton fabric was deed with a reactive dye in water/dichloromethane two-phase immiscible solvent media. In order to minimize dye loss due to its hydrolysis, the reactive dyeing was carried out in dichloromethane containing a small amount of water. With only 2ml of water in 23m1 of dichloromethane, 1.0g of cotton fabric could be dyed perfectly. The uptake ratio was increased greatly, compared with that of normal reactive dyeing in a waters medium. It would seem that the one of hydrophobic solvents, dichloromethane, can assist the eden dyeing as it disperses a small amount of dye-dissolved water phase and conveys this water phase to the fabric entirely and uniformly.

Retention of ascorbic acid in vegetables as influenced by various blanching methods was measured and the effects of blanching time, amount of water added, and with or without lid on the retention were compared. It was found that blanching with small amount of water and without lid generally retained the higher activity of ascorbic acid. Although steam blanching showed the highest retention of the vitamin, the longer heating time was needed to blanch the vegetables. Blanching by microwave oven has revealed that addition of small amount of water did not affect the retention. From the scoring difference test for texture of blanched spinach, the samples which were indicated as best in texture by the 8-panel members have retained 73~96% of ascorbic acid and samples blanched by microwave oven for 60 seconds showed highest retention.

In Korea, riverbank filtration has drawn attention since 1990's as an alternative having potential to stably meet the ever-increasing water demand. Some cities located in the Nak-dong River Basin are currently supplying water through riverbank filtration. This research is on the application of riverbank filtration for stable water quality in Seoul. For this purpose, we have evaluated developable amount of water with riverbank filtration for the Han River. This paper focuses on the Kwangnaru site, which was selected through a systematic analysis in the companion paper. We have conducted groundwater modeling for a proposed system of wells and an artificial lake. In the Kwangnaru district, the river length to constitute a well system was identified to be about 1,200m, due to the topography and the field condition such as ecosystem preservation zone. After many design changes, it was found that the maximum developable amount of $23.36\;million\;m^3$/year could be obtained, when 16 pumping wells were built in every 80 meters along with an artificial lake upstream.

The purpose of study was analyze the pumping characteristics, Irrigation Efficiency(IE), and irrigation pattern by period of rice growing stage with based on the performance of design irrigation water requirement and operational Galshin Pumping(GP) station in GP irrigation district constructed under rural water development project master plan. GP station was located in Yedang reservoir, Yesan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do and has been supplying irrigation water since 2006. The research data are the Irrigation Water Requirement(IWR) and the Pumping Water Amount(PWA) from 2006 to 2015 at the GP station, which is the supplied amount. The IWR were calculated using the Blaney-Criddle formula of the HOMWRS program, Hydrological Operation Model for Water Resource System, developed by Korea Rural Community Corporation. The Blaney-Criddle formula was used to calculate design irrigation water requirement of Galshin rural water development project master plan. During 2006-2015, the study period, the annual average IWR is 763.2(±149.1)mm, the annual PWA of the GP station is 397.4mm to 1,056.9mm, and those average annual PWA is 643.4(±208.4)mm. The annual IE of GP station 96.5% to 169.0%, and the average annual IE is 124.3%, which is higher than the research results conducted in other pumping stations. Analyzing the irrigation patterns of the GP irrigation district, the IWR Ratio per 10days(IWRR) and the PWA Ratio per 10days(PWAR) of the G P station were obtained. The IWRR is the percentage of IWR for each 10 days of a month to total IWR per year, and the PWAR is the percentage of PWA for each 10 days of a month to total PWA per year. The Kolmogorov- Smirnov(K-S) test results of IWRR and PWAR showed the characteristics classification by rice growing stage and stable normal distribution characteristics. Average IWRR(AIWRR) and Average PWAR(APWAR) are presented as irrigation patterns. Irrigation pattern analysis will be able to standardize comparison, analysis and probability calculation of the pumping station characteristics of different pumping stations and apply to objective evaluation of the pumping station district.

This study was conducted to performance appraisal of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), especially in terms of performance on development & reduction plan and water quality status of unit watershed. Because load allocations for pollution sources were predicted redundantly by uncertainty of prediction, TMDLs master plan has been frequently changed to acquire load allocation for local development. Therefore, It need to be developed more resonable prediction techniques of water pollution sources to preventing the frequent change. It is suggested that the reduction amount have to be distributed properly during the planning period. In other words, it has not to be concentrated on the specific year (especially final year of the planning period). The reason why, if the reduction amount concentrate on the final year of the planning period, allotment loading amount could not be achieved in some cases (e.g., insufficiency of budget, extension of construction duration). If the development plan was developed including uncertain developments, it is necessary to be developed reduction plan considered with them. However, some of the plans in the reduction plan could not be accomplished in some case. Because, it is not considered financial abilities of local governments. Consequently, development plan must be accomplished to avoid uncertain developments, and to consider financial assistance to support the implementation of effective plan. Water quality has been improved in many unit watersheds due to the TMDLs, especially in geum river and yeongsang/seomjin river.
