Abstract

In this study, we have investigated the water quality and flow rate at the 3 sites of main stream and 11 sites of the branch stream of Hwang River from January, 2007 to 2010, and analyzed the effects on Hwang River with the purpose of using the data for as the fundamental information for water quality improvement and water resource management in the water system of Hap-Cheon Lake Upper Stream. The flow rate at 3 sites of the main stream and 11 sites of the branch stream increased during the rainy season between June and September, and continuously decreased during the dry season starting from autumn to winter. The results of correlation analysis with Pearson correlation coefficient showed that $BOD_5$ and $COD_{Mn}$, $BOD_5$ and T-P, and $COD_{Mn}$ and TSS at the 3 sites of the main stream had high correlation with each other. We have also analyzed the correlation between Chl-a and major factors at the 3 sites of the main stream. Chl-a and the water temperature Negative correlation coefficient and that of Chl-a and $BOD_5$, $COD_{Mn}$ Positive correlation coefficient showed. The N/P ratio at all the 3 sites of the main stream was higher than 16 by DIN/DIP and T-N/T-P, indicating that phosphorus is acting as the limited nutrient.

본 연구에서는 합천댐 상류수계의 수질개선 및 수자원관리를 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 2007년 1월에서 2010년 1월까지 황강본류 3개 지점과 지류 11개 지점을 선정하여 수질 및 유량조사를 실시하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 황강수질에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 본류 3개 지점 및 지류 11개 지점의 유량은 우기기간인 6월~9월 사이에 증가하여 건기기간인 가을과 겨울 사이에 지속적으로 감소하였다. 본류 3개 지점의 분석항목간 상관성은 $BOD_5$와 $COD_{Mn}$, $BOD_5$와 T-P 및 $COD_{Mn}$와 SS의 상관성이 각각 높은 것으로 나타났다. Chl-a와 수온은 (-)의 상관성을 보였으며, $BOD_5$와 $COD_{Mn}$는 (+)의 상관성을 보였다. 본류 3개 지점에서 N/P비율은 16이상으로 인이 제한영양염으로 작용하는 것을 알 수 있다.
