The conventional water quality measurements by point sampling provide only site specific temporal water quality information but not the synoptic geographic coverage of water quality distribution. To circumvent these limitations in temporal and spatial measurements, the use of remote sensing is increasingly involved in the water quality monitoring research. In other to assess a trophic state of Yongdam reservoir using satellite imagery data, I obtained Landsat ETM data and water quality data on 16th September and 18th October 2001. The approach involved acquisition of water quality samples from boats at 33 sites on 16th September and 30 sites on 18th October 2001, simultaneous with Landsat-7 satellite overpass. The correlation coefficients between the DN values of the imagery and the concentrations of chlorophyll-a were analyzed. The visible bands(band 1,2,3) and near infrared band(band 4) data of September image showed the correlation coefficient values higher than 0.9. The October image showed the correlation coefficient values about 0.7 due to the atmospheric effect and low variation of chlorophyll-a concentration. Regression models between the chrophyll-a concentration and DN values of the Landsat imagery data have been developed for each image. The regression model was determined based on the spectral characteristics of chlorophyll, so the green band(band 2) and near infrared band(band 4) were selected to generate a trophic state map. The coefficient of determination(R2) of the regression model for 16th September was 0.95 and that of the regression model for 18th October was 0.55. According to the trophic state map made based on Aizaki's TSI and chlorophyll-a concentration, the trophic state of Yongdam reservoir was mostly eutrophic state during this study.

Many small-scale ponds that serve as ecological habitat, recreation and irrigation are faced to eutrophication problem, which causes aesthetic nuisance and ultimately loss of their functions. Thus accurate evaluation of the trophic state of these ponds is essential to provide rational information to the stakeholders so that they can develop effective management actions. In this study, the trophic state of a small pond (Wonheung) that experiencing water quality degradation due to vicinity land development was assessed using various Trophic State Indexes (TSIs) and statistical analysis including Principal Components Analysis (PCA) based on the field monitoring data obtained from May to December, 2007. The results showed that the pond is under eutrophic state with average total nitrogen (T-N) and total phosphorus (T-P) concentrations of $708.1{\mu}g/L$ and $59.3{\mu}g/L$, respectively. The factor loading plot obtained from PCA showed distinct two influencing factors, PC 1 and PC 2. PC 1 was grouped by T-P, Chlorophyll a (Chl-a), suspended solids (SS), TN/TP ratio, and transparency that all strongly related to the eutrophication state, while PC 2 by temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen (DO) and turbidity that explains the seasonal water quality variations. The limiting factor was identified as light rather than phosphorus by both T-N/T-P ratio and TSI indexes analysis. The results and methodology adopted in this study can be used for water quality assessment for other small ponds and lakes.

본 연구에서는 $2002{\sim}2005$년까지 측정된 한국농촌공사의 수질측정자료를 이용하여 계절별, 공간별 저수지의 부영양화 및 수질 특성을 분석하였다. TN에 의거하였을 때, 대다수(전체의 88%)의 저수지는 부영양 상태로 나타났다. OECD 기준에 의거하여 산정한 TP에 의한 영양상태에서는 전체 저수지의 26%가 부영양 상태로 나타났고, 71%는 중영양, 3%는 빈영양 상태로 나타났다. 계절적 변이는 강우 집중기인 7월에서 8월 사이에 강하게 나타나고 있었으며, 전기전도도, COD, SS, TN, TP 및 CHL 값은 강우 후에 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. TP는 전기전도도와 COD 농도가 높은 저수지에서 높은 수준으로 나타나고 있었으며, TP의 증가에 따라 CHL의 농도도 함께 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. COD와 SS는 집중 강우해에 높은 수치를 기록하였으며, TP와 CHL은 가뭄해에 비하여 약 2배정도 높은 수치를 기록하였다. 이는 인근 점 비 점오염원으로부터 장마 기간에 유기물 및 부유물, 영양염의 다량 유입이 원인으로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 회귀분석에서는 TN: TP 비와 TP가 매우 높은 상관관계 ($R^2$=0.84, p<0.001, n=34)를 보였으며, CHL과 TP는 1차 함수관계 $(Log_{10}TP=0.5{\times}Log_{10}CHL+0.086)$를 보였다. TN, TP, CHL에 의거한 유사도 분석에서는 약 90% 수준에서 염도가 높으면서 해양 인접 지역에 위치한 그룹, 염도가 낮으면서 내륙에 위치한 그룹, 그리고 뚜렷한 위치 특성을 보이지 않는 중간적인 그룹으로 분류되었다.

Many large dams have been constructed for water supply, irrigation, flood control and hydropower in Korea for the last century. Meanwhile, recent studies indicated that the artificial reservoirs impounded by these dams are major sources of carbon dioxide (CO₂) to the atmosphere and relevant to global budget of green house gases. However, limited information is available on the seasonal variations of CO₂ evasion from the reservoirs located in the temperate monsoon regions including Korea. The objectives of this study were to estimate daily Net Atmospheric Flux (NAF) of CO₂ in Daecheong Reservoir located in Geum River basin of Korea, and analyze the influencing parameters that characterize the variation of NAF. Daily pH and alkalinity (Alk) data collected in wet year (2012) and dry year (2013) were used for estimating the NAFs in the reservoir. The dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) was computed using the pH and Alk measurements supposing an equilibrium state among the carbonate species. The results showed seasonal variations of NAF; negative NAFs from May to October when the primary production of the reservoir increased with water temperature increase, while positive NAF for the rest of the period. Overall the reservoir acted as sources of CO₂ to the atmosphere. The estimated NAFs were 2,590 and 771 mg CO₂ m^-2d^-1 in 2012 and 2013, respectively, indicating that the NAFs vary a large extent for different hydrological years. Statistical analysis indicated that the NAFs are negatively correlated to pH, water temperature, and Chl-a concentration of the reservoir.

This study compares the abundance and community structure of zooplankton organisms from pelagic regions, and considers particularly the trophic levels vs. zooplankton abundances and biomass. Zooplankton samples were collected three times from May to November 2022, at 30 temperate lakes and reservoirs, which belong to four different river basins. The total zooplankton abundance, biomass and species index were showed considerable spatial variation. The spatial pattern of rotifer abundance was similar to that of total zooplankton abundance, while there were not showed similar patterns of zooplankton biomass (㎍ L^-1) in lentic ecosystems. The rotifer strongly dominated the zooplankton assemblage in smaller lentic system than that of larger. A total of 130 species of zooplankton were identified (83 rotifers, 34 cladocerans and 13 copepods). The total average of zooplankton abundance and biomass were 213.7±342.3 Ind. L^-1 (n=129) and 1382.8±1850.4 ㎍ L^-1, respectively. Total and average of zooplankton abundance were usually dominated by the rotifers (>56.9%), while those of zooplankton biomass were dominated by the cladocerans and copepods (>73.6%) in lentic ecosystems. Considering the Trophic State Index (TSI), the factors of zooplankton abundance and biomass were included in between meso- and eutrophic states(27 lakes, 90% of all). The mean abundance and biomass of zooplankton in eutrophic systems were higher than that of meso- and hypertrophic systems. From this result, we suggest that management strategy for the lentic ecosystem water environment has to be focused more on small-sized lakes and reservoirs, in terms of zooplankton assemblages.

The seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton and trophic state were evaluated weekly at three sites in the Lake Unmoon from May to November 2001. The seasonal succession pattern of phytoplankton community in the Lake Unmoon showed that the dominant species were; i) diatoms during the late spring, ii) dinoflagellates in June, iii) blue green algae, diatoms and dinoflagellates in July, iv) green algae and blue green algae in August, v) blue green algae in September and early November, and vi) diatoms in November. Members of Microcystis were dominant from middle August to late October and members of Aulocoseira appeared as important species in autumn in the Lake Unmoon. The concentration of chlorophyll-a ranged from 2.4 to 23.0 mg ${\cdot}m^{-3}$ (average: 8.6 mg ${\cdot}m^{-3}$) during the study period. Concentrations of total phosphorus were high during the period from July to November with the maximum of 0.028 mg ${\cdot} l^{-1}$. The average N/P ratio was 121, indicating that concentrations of phosphorus may determine the high algal biomass in the Lake Unmoon. Concentrations of silicate were higher in the Lake Unmoon (average value: 10.016 mg ${\cdot}$ l-) than in other lakes (average values: 1.074-4.408 mg ${\cdot}$ l-), suggesting high potential of diatom growth. The average trophic state index in the Lake Unmoon was 52, which was close to eutrophic state, and the trophic state trend was increasing steadily since 1999.

본 연구는 도심에 위치한 얕은 인공호수의 수질변화 특성, 제한영양염 및 퇴적물 특성을 평가하기 위해서 이루어졌다. 일감호는 연 평균 엽록소 a($77.2{\pm}36.6\;{\mu}g/l)와 TP ($66.6{\pm}20.5\;{\mu}g/l)농도 그리고 영양상태지수 (>60)모두를 토대로 할 때 매우 부영양상태였다. 결빙시기와 해빙되는 시기에 수층내 무기질소와 인의 수체내 농도가 증가하였다가 여름철에는 감소하는 계절적인 변화가 나타났다. 수체내 DIN/DIP(무게비)비율과 TSI편차분석 그리고 생물검정 (AGP)실험을 통해서 질소와 인 모두가 식물플랑크톤의 성장을 제한함이 제시되었다. TSI편차분석 결과에서는 1년 중 생물검정을 통해서도 인 제한이 예측된 바 있는 9월부터 11월에 인과 질소 모두의 식물플랑크톤 성장에 대한 제한정도가 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. 퇴적물내 인 함량(313${\pm}$155mgP/kg)은 계절에 따른 변화를 나타났고, 인용출률은 pH9에서 0.29${\pm}$0.02Pmg $m^{-2}$ $day^{-1}$로 가장 높았다. 질소함량은 평균 4,452${\pm}$283.0 mg N/kg였으며 계절에 따른 큰 차이는 없었다. 이러한 결과들은 퇴적물이 제한영양염의 공급원으로서의 중요한 역할을 수행하며, 퇴적물내 인 함량의 계절에 따른 변화가 조류의 생물량을 조절할 수 있음을 의미한다.

The characteristics of Lake Cheonhoji water and sediment were investigated in oder to utilize these as fundamental materials for the management of lake water quality. The hydrographic properties of Lake Cheonhoji which are relatively low chance of nutrients loading from the watershed and a long retention time of lake water, lead to the probability of high lake productivity. It was also observed that lake water showed stratification during summer and complete mixing during fall, even though water depth was relatively shallow. The trophic state was eutrophic to hypertrophic from summer to late fall. The overall properties of the sediment were oligohumic, high ignition loss and high composition of NAIP and Resid.-P, which might serve as potential pollution sources of lake water quality. In laboratory scale experiments, it was observed that leaching potential of nutrients in the sediment was greatly dependant upon water temperature and dissolved oxygen. Finally, water pollution in Lake Cheonhoji was considered to be largely due to the adverse cycle of uncontrollable eutrophication, which resulted in the subsequent occurrence of dead algae and animal plankton, organic sedimentation, reduction of dissolved oxygen and nutrients leaching, which again reinforced the cycle of eutrophication in the lake.
