Submerged plants whose most of vegetative mass are below the water surface can have great effects on wetland biogeochemistry and water purification through their photosynthesis and nutrient uptake processes. In this study, change of dissolved oxygen concentration and pH as well as nutrient removal capacity of the submerged plant dominant wetland were investigated using wetland mesocosm experiments. Obvious periodic DO and pH fluctuation was observed due to photosynthetic activities of the submerged plants. It implies that the submerged plants can provide periodic or sequential changes of oxic and anoxic conditions that affect nitrification and denitrification processes and contribute permanent nitrogen removal in the wetland system. The pH changes in the wetland mesocosm suggested that submerged plant could also play an important role as a temporary $CO_2$ storage. Higher nutrient removal efficiency was observed in the submerged plant dominant wetland mesocosm. The removal efficiencies under experimental conditions were 38.89, 84.70, 91.21, 70.76, 75.30% of TN, DIN, $NH_4-N$, TP, $PO_4-P$ in the wetland mesocosm, while those were 26.11, 57.34, 63.87, 28.19, 55.15% in the control treatment, respectively.

The performance and characteristics of nutrient removal in wetlands influenced by plant type. We tested a floating plant, Eichhornia crassipes, and a submerged plant, Ceratophyllum demersum, under the same environmental conditions to understand the differences in nutrient uptake by these different plant forms. The total nitrogen and phosphorus in the water decreased in the following order: Water Only < Water + Soil < Floating Plants ${\approx}$ Submerged Plants and Water Only < Water+Soil < Floating Plants < Submerged Plants. Nitrogen and phosphorous concentrations increased in both plants; however, the phosphorous concentration was greater in C. demersum than E. crassipes. The submerged plant exhibited higher phosphorus uptake per unit biomass than the floating plant, but nitrogen uptake did not differ significantly. These results suggest that the presence of soil influences nitrogen and phosphorus removal from water, and that wetland plants play an important role in the assimilation and precipitation of phosphorus. Understanding the differences in contaminant removal performance and characteristics of various plant forms can help in the selection of diverse plants for constructed wetlands to improve water quality and provide ecosystem services such as wildlife habitat and landscape enhancement.

수생식물은 지각류의 종다양성과 풍부도를 결정하는 중요한 요인이지만, 식물의 종구성이나 구조에 대한 지각류의 영향은 충분하게 고려되지 않았다. 남한은 수생식물이 피복되기 쉬운 습지나 저수지가 전국에 산재하고 있기 때문에 지각류를 포함한 생물 연구 시 수생식물에 대한 고려가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 6가지 유형의 미소서식처에서 지각류 군집의 종수와 풍부도를 조사하고, 이 결과를 기반으로 서식처 보전과 효율적인 관리에 대해 고찰하고 한다. 지각류 군집의 높은 종수와 풍부도는 부유식물, 부엽식물, 그리고 침수식물이 함께 구성된 혼합된 식물 군락에서 목격되었다. 식물 군락에서 침수식물의 포함은 서식처 구조의 복잡성에 크게 기여하며, 지각류 군집의 종수와 풍부도를 증가시킬 수 있다. 이는 침수식물이 부재한 부유 및 부엽식물로만 구성된 식물 군락과 비교함으로서 침수식물의 효율성을 파악할 수 있다. 혼합된 식물 군락에서는 다른 식물 군락에 부재하는 지각류 종 (Graptoleveris testudinaria, Ilyocryptus spinifer, Leydigia acanthocercoides)이 출현함으로서 종다양성이 가장 높았다. 혼합된 식물 군락에서 침수식물의 점차적인 생물량 (g) 증가는 지각류 군집의 종수와 풍부도를 유의하게 증가시켰다 (p<0.05). 이는 혼합된 식물 군락에서 침수식물의 증가가 지각류의 서식처로서 효율성에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 강력한 증거이다. 비록 침수식물은 수중에 침수되어 서식하기 때문에 경관적/미적인 가치에 크게 기여하지 않지만, 생물학적 측면에서 종다양성을 증가시키는 효과를 가지기 때문에 습지 창출/복원 시 중요하게 고려되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

It was studied of relation between biomass of reed communities (Phragmitis communis) and several environmental factors concerned with such as chlor ine, pH, humus content in soil and depth of seawater submerged. Two sites where were the different geographical conditions were set up. One site had two plots: H plot, at theshallows of seawater, was not submerged except at full tide or at heavy rainfall, and M plot, at medium depth of seawater, submerged at every common tide at inside of a bank along the west seashore of Mu-An-peninsula. The other site also two plots: M' plot, at medium depth, submerged about 10 hours at each tide, and L plot, at deep seawater submerged every tims at tide at the outside of a bank along the eastside estuary of Youngsan river. Maximum standing crop of the reed community was shown on 25th of June: biomass at H M, M' and L plot were respectively 4.65, 3.60, 0.98, and 0.67 kg dry weight per $m^2$. Density of individual at H, M, M' and L plot was 67, 78, 244 and 333 plants per $m^2$. Net production of the terrestrial parts of rred community on the outside of the bank were lesser as much as a sixth than that on inside, but the density of the plant on outside of the bank was higher as much 4 or 5 times than that on inside. It was assumed that the growth of reed plant was inhibited by high chlorine, high pH, less humus in soil and submergence of seawater for long period.

In summer and early autumn, eutrophication occurs occasionally in many reservoirs. Lakeside macrophyte which is one of internal pollutants effects on water quality when it is submerged during water surface is rising after rainy season. This study include examination of pollutant load, species of plant, community structure and productivity of macrophyte in unit area at lakeside. The result of this research will be used as a guideline of water quality management on reservoir through assessing water quality effect of submerged plant. The areal distribution, composition of species and submerged area of macrophyte changes according to rainfall pattern every year, so it is difficult to calculate nutrient load annually from submerged macrophyte. In this study, the nutrient load from submerged macrophyte assess from Daecheong and Juam reservoir in 2001. TN and TP load of submerged macrophyte shows 0.043% and 0.069%, respectively, of annual discharge load on Daecheong watershed. At lake Juam, TN and TP shows 0.64% and 1.28% load, respectively. The reason that nutrient load of lake Juam is greater than that of lake Daecheong is that macrophyte distribution area of lake Juam is 5 times greater than that of lake Daecheong. Total nutrient load of lake Daecheong is 3 times greater than that of lake Juam.

It is known that phytoplankton biomass or turbidity are lower in waters with submerged macrophytes than those without submerged plants at a given nutrient level. We hypothesize that presence of submerged macrophytes would lower phytoplankton biomass below levels expected by total phosphorus levels through various mechanisms and that phytoplankton biomass would decrease more as the biomass increase of the submerged macrophytes. To find submerged macrophytes effectively lowering phytoplankton growth, we conducted spatial field surveys at 21 water bodies and a temporal monitoring at Seung-un 1 Reservoir, Anmyyeondo Island. We measured chlorophyll ${\alpha}$ concentrations and total phosphorus (TP) concentrations from waters in patches of submerged macrophytes with measurements of submerged plant biomass. Majority of our sites with submerged macrophytes showed much less chlorophyll a concentrations than the predicted ones from literature. Among submerged macrophytes studied, Myriophyllum spicatum and Hydrilla verticillata showed patterns of lowering chlorophyll ${\alpha}/TP$ ratios with increase of their biomass in both spatial and temporal surveys.

To select submerged macrophytes to suppress growth of Microcystis aeruginosa through releasing allelochemicals, we conducted growth experiments with water from patches of submerged macrophytes and with aqueous extracts of those submerged macrophytes. In the first experiment, growth rates of M. aeruginosa decreased as biomass of Myriophyllum spicatum and Hydrilla verticillata increased. In the second experiment, M. aeruginosa showed approximately 50% growth reduction with extracts from M. spicatum and 24% reduction with extracts from Ottelia alismoides. Both M. aeruginosa growth experiments with water and plant extracts suggest that M. spicatum would be the best candidate to reduce M. aeruginosa growth.

We applied a commercially available computational fluid dynamics model, FLOW-3D, to design a settling basin inlet structure for the intended O sewage plant. In addition, we analyzed the extent to which the inlet sewage water was distributed as a result, firstly, of the location and width of a submerged baffle wall and, secondly, of the opening ratio of a baffle wall with opening holes. The application results show that the flow is unstable due to the generation of eddies in both sides of the submerged baffle wall when the submerged baffle wall is located close to the inlet. The eddies and subsequent instability also occur when the submerged baffle wall is located close to the baffle wall with opening holes. Moreover, the discharge that passes through the midsection of the settling basin increases as the width of the submerged baffle wall increases. At the O sewage plant, when the submerged baffle wall with a width of 2.4 m was located 2 m from the inlet structure and the opening ratio of the baffle wall was 7 percent, the most satisfactory distribution of the inlet sewage water occurred at the entrance of the settling basin.

Submerged bodies moving underwater behave differently based on their type and assigned mission. This paper describes the dynamic characteristics, including the stability, turning ability, and operational ability, of submerged bodies in relation to design parameters such as the tail cone angle, shape of the control plate, and length of the parallel middle body. A submerged body operated in other countries is adopted as a reference for the dynamic characteristics, its principal dimensions and the shape of the bare hull and appendages are used for comparison. This paper suggests a few candidate hull forms based on changes in the typical design parameters. Finally, the dynamic characteristics for these candidate hull forms are defined.

This research is mainly to deal with the effects of submergence treatment on the grain yields of two rice plants, local variety, "Akibare" and Tongil line variety, "Milyang 23". The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1. According to the rice products of each plot the grain yield index was smallest in the plot treated at the early heading stage. The index of the next order became smaller in order of late flowering stage, late reduction division stage, milk ripe stage and dough ripe stage etc. The submerged stage at which the damages were smallest was tillering stage. Under the condition of two thirds or one third submerged depth of plant height, few differences in the grain yield index between Milyang 23 and Akibare was found, but except rooting stage, the damages of milyang 23 by whole submergence during growing period were mostly greater than those of Akibare. Especially the grain yield index of early heading stage at which the damages by whole submergence was most serious showed 45 percentage for one day submergence, 31 percentage for 3 days and 0.7 percentage for 7 days in Akibare plots, and 26.7% percentage for one day submergence, 7.9 percentage for 3 days and none for 7 days in Milyang 23 plots. 2. All the factors such as submerged stage, submerged depth and submerged period in this experimental test were highly recognized significance. The factors of the submerged depth and duration influenced on greater damages than the others. According to the difference in grain yield between plots, the larger the submerged depth and duration were, the larger the significant difference appeared. And between the treated levels at other submerged stages except both early tillering stage and most active tillering stage, the significance in the differences in grain yield was recognized, while only the submergence at early heading stage showed the most serious damages. 3. The decreased rate of grain yield for one day submergence at early heading stage indicated that in case of whole submergence of plant height it was 73 percentage in Milyang 23 plot and 55 percentage in Akibare plot, and in the event of two thirds and one third submergences of it, 20 percentage and 10 percentage in both Mulyang 23 and Akibare plots respectively. Therefore, the current criteria for planning project that restricted allowable submergence duration of more than 30cm submerged depth to 24 hours, should be amended not to exceed the submerged depth of 60cm when the duration of more than allowable submerged depth of 30cm will be limited to 24 hours, or within the limits of 12 hour submerged duration for locai variety and of less than 12 hour duration for Tong-illine variety as long as possible in case that submerged depth will be allowed to more than 60cm depth.ore than 60cm depth.
