Risk assessment on Jeju Special Self-Governing Province(JSSGP)’s water supply facilities and establishment of adaptation measures for climate crisis factors were implemented. JSSGP’s vulnerability to the climate crisis was high in the order of drought, heat wave, heavy rain and strong wind. As a drought adaptation measure, policies of water saving and revenue water ratio improvement were considered. As for the heat wave adaptation measure, the introduction of an advanced water treatment process was suggested in response to the increase of algae cell number which resulting in taste and odor problem. As for heavy rain adaptation measures, the installation and operation of automatic coagulant injection devices for water purification plants that take turbid surface water were proposed. As a measure to adapt to strong winds, stabilization of power supply such as installation of dual power line was proposed in preparation for power outages. It is expected that water facilities will be able to supply high-quality tap water to customers even under extreme climate conditions without interruption through risk assessment for climate crisis factors and active implementation of adaptation measures.

This study assessed the levels of water qualities and microbials contamination of inland olive flounder farms in Jeju in the summers from 2015 to 2017. Three farms (A-C) located in a concentrated area using mixing coastal seawater and underground seawater and one farm (D) located in an independent area using only coastal seawater were selected. Total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) reached a maximum of 0.898 ± 1.024 mg/L as N in the coastal seawater of A-C, which was close to the limit of the water quality management goal of the fish farm. TAN in the influent from A-C was up to three times higher than that of D, so that the discharged water did not spread to a wide range area along the coast and continued to affect the influent. TAN of the effluent in A-C increased by 2.7-4.6 times compared to the influent, resulting in serious self-pollution in the flounder farm. Heterotrophic marine bacteria in the influent of A-C was about 600 times higher than D, and the discharge of A-C was increased by about 30 times compared to the influent.

This paper investigates the current status of Jeju special self-governing province (JSSGP)’s water infrastructure and recommends directions for improvement. JSSGP relies on groundwater for most of its water resources. Recently, water usage has been steadily increasing due to the increase of residents and tourists while the quality of groundwater has been steadily worsening. Deterioration in water quality of groundwater can be seen through the increase in concentration of nitrate nitrogen and microorganisms. To overcome such problems, water consumption must be reduced by water demand management in all fields including residential and agricultural water use. The quality of water resources should be preserved through the management of pollutants. For efficient management of water resources, great efforts should be made to reduce the leakage rates in household and agricultural water, which is currently at the highest level in the country. Furthermore, diversification of water intake sources other than groundwater is needed, especially for agricultural water supply. For water and sewerage facilities, compliance with drinking water quality standards and discharge water quality standards must be achieved through the optimization of operation management. This process requires recruiting professionals, improving existing workers' expertise, and improving facilities.

Climate adaptation strategies for water utilities including 16 water treatment plants(WTPs) in Jeju were investigated. Drought, heat wave, and heavy rain were among the most significant climate factors affecting water utilities in Jeju. Heat wave increases water temperature, which in turn increases the concentration of algae, color, and odor materials. Some adaption strategies for the heat wave can be strengthening water monitoring and introducing advanced water treatments. Heavy rain increases raw water turbidity in surface water. The 7 WTPs that take raw water from streams or springs had a maximum turbidity of less than 50 NTU under heavy rain. However, due to concerns of turbidity spike in treated water, some WTPs discontinued intaking raw water when raw water turbidity increased more than 2 NTU. They instead received treated water from other WTPs which took groundwater for water supply. This happens because of the low skills of employees. Thus, there needs to be an increase in operator competency and upgrade of water facilities for the adaption of heavy rain. To improve adaption for the drought, there should be an increase in the capacity of intake facilities of surface water as well as a decrease in water loss. In addition, water consumption per person should be decreased.

Pollutants removal efficiency in pretreatment(GAC filter, multi-media filter, disk filter) and RO facilities was investigated for the Jeju Samyang spring water source where raw water intake has been stopped due to sea water intrusion. In addition, preliminary feasibility analysis was conducted between RO and groundwater intake systems. Turbidity removal in 4 different pretreatment processes was less than 25% due to low concentration of turbidity(i.e., less than 0.21 NTU), while multi-media filter is recommended for the pretreatment facility based on the low organic content in raw water as well as cheaper operation and maintenance cost. The average concentration of Cl- in raw water was 691.4 mg/L, while that of RO permeate was 9.1 mg/L(i.e., removal efficiency was 98.4%). In addition, TDS removal efficiency was 98.1%, which was quite high. The production cost for RO system(Q=4,000 m3/d) was 362.1 won/m3 considering installation, operation and maintenance cost for 30 years. While that of groundwater was 262.6 won/m3 which was low compared to the RO system. However, it is recommended to introduce RO system for Samyang water source rather than new groundwater development because Samyang water source has been discharged to the sea without any usage, while groundwater can be used for other purpose as a sustainable water source.

Vanadium, a dietary micronutrient, has been reported to present interesting biological and pharmacological properties, including superoxide and nitric oxide scavenging effects. Low-dose ionizing radiation (LDR) is known to damage DNA and cause apoptosis of peripheral immunocytes by producing reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of this study was to elucidate the capacity of immune activation of Jeju water containing vanadium on immunosuppression caused by LDR. We examined the ROS production, DNA damage, cell apoptosis and proliferation of peripheral immunocytes in irradiated mice drinking different concentrations for 90 days; V0 (vanadium 0㎍/L, control), V1 (vanadium 15～20㎍/ L) and V2 (vanadium 20∼25㎍/L). Compared to V0 control where level of ROS showed tendency to increase, the ROS production was attenuated in peripheral immunocytes of irradiated mice drinking V1 and V2. DNA damage of peripheral immunocytes triggered by LDR significantly increased in mice drinking V0 compared to non-irradiated control, whereas V1 and V2 dramatically induced remission of DNA damage. On the observation of apoptosis of peripheral immunocytes, V1 and V2 showed the potency to reduce the number of apoptotic cells. On the other hand irradiated mice drinking V0 exhibited raised number of apoptotic cells. From the results obtained, we speculated that Jeju water containing vanadium (V1 and V2) has a potential role in decreasing DNA damage and apoptosis of immune cell by inhibiting ROS production. Consistent with this, Jeju water containing vanadium (V1 and V2) exhibits a capacity to enhance cell proliferation of peripheral immunocytes, which is suppressed by LDR as shown in V0 control. Collectively, Jeju water containing vanadium reduced DNA damage and apoptosis and induced the stimulatory potential on immunocytes. These results suggest that Jeju water containing vanadium sustained immune activities under immunosuppression caused by LDR.

The indirect target strength (TS) estimation method which uses the Kirchhoff ray mode model (KRM model) was discussed to apply for a biomass estimation in the water of mixed species. TS of 25 live scorpion fishes for 120kHz were measured by a tethered method and of others dominant 5 species in the marine ranching ground of Jeju coastal water including a scorpion fish were also estimated by KRM model. The measurement TS of scorpion fish well agreed with the theoretical values and the standard formula of scorpion fish was estimated as TS120kHz=20Log (L)-72.9 (r2=0.67). TScm values estimated on trial to each sample of dominant 5 species were from -69.3dB to -75.1dB at 120kHz and they were in the general range of swimbladdered fish. It was clarified that TS by KRM model can be used to estimate fish biomass estimation by increasing a sample number and is more effective under the condition that there is rare TS information for inhabiting species in mixed-species area.

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of applying level of pig slurry on the characteristics of runoff and leaching water in lysimeter. Treatments were broken down into five treatments such as non-chemical fertilizer, chemical fertilizer (200㎏ N/㏊) and pig slurry (200, 400, 600㎏ N/㏊), and 3-time-repeated randomized complete block design was fulfilled. The concentrations of NO₃-N was raised(p＜0.05) in proportion to the applying level of pig slurry. NO₃-N concentration of leaching water collected from soil depth 20㎝ and 40㎝ was intensified as the applying level of pig slurry was higher (p＜0.05) in pig slurry 600㎏ N/㏊ application. In conclusion, pig slurry at the volcanic ash soil in Jeju area can replace the chemical fertilizer as it is tested that applying 200㎏ N/㏊ of pig slurry and chemical fertilizer show the same productivity of sorghum×sudangrass hybrid. But more than 200㎏ N/㏊ of pig slurry may not be appropriate because it may contaminate the runoff and leaching water even though it may increase for the forage productivity.

This study was carried out to analyze water cycle characteristics and evaluate water retention function in Jeju Gotjawal forest from 2013 to 2017. The average ratio of throughfall, stemflow, interception loss in Seonhul Gotjawal (SH) and Cheongsu Gotjawal (CS) was 43.1%, 15.8%, and 41.1%, respectively. Rainfall-throughfall, rainfall-stemflow, and rainfall-interception loss were expressed as linear regression equation (p<0.001). The comparison results showed that SH was higher than CS (p<0.05), indicating that the canopy area had an important effect on the difference in stand structure. The average water resources retention rate of the Gotjawal region was 41.9%, which is similar to the total water resources retention rate (40.6%) of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province (JSSGP). Currently, the development of Gotjawal is in progress in JSSGP. The development of Gotjawal will lead to a decrease in the water resources retention rate due to changes in the surface environment such as an increase in impervious areas, which will affect the total groundwater content of JSSGP. Therefore, the conservation of the Gotjawal area is judged to be very important from the point of view of water conservation.

Seasonal changes in the CO2 fixation rate and water-use efficiency in the leaves of six evergreen and two deciduous broad-leaved tree species on Jeju Island, Korea, were measured using a portable photosynthesis analyzer, to identify which species are most efficient in taking up CO2 from the air. The CO2 fixation rate was high in the deciduous species in spring and summer and decreased in fall, whereas it was high in the evergreen species in summer and fall and decreased in winter. The rate remained high in the deciduous tree Prunus yedoensis from spring to fall (> 7.1 μmol CO2/m2/s) and in two evergreen trees, Castanopsis cuspidata var. sieboldii and Cinnamomum camphora, in summer and fall (7.0 9.9 μmol CO2/m2/s). Therefore, these tree species fix atmospheric CO2 effectively. The water-use efficiency was higher in evergreen species than in deciduous species regardless of the season. Exceptionally, it was high in the deciduous species Zelkova serrata in spring and summer (> 100 μmol CO2/mol H2O), suggesting that Z. serrata is a useful tree for dry conditions due to its tolerance of water stress. The regressions of the CO2 fixation rate versus the evaporation rate and stomatal conductance were linear and non-linear, respectively. This suggests that the stomatal activity of leaves plays an important part in CO2 fixation of plants. In conclusion, C. cuspidata var. sieboldii, C. camphora, and P. yedoensis should be planted along roads or in urban spaces for the greening of cities and mitigation of CO2 concentrations in the air.

수자원 계획 및 운영을 위한 수요량을 추정하는데 있어, 실제 이용 추세를 반영한 생활용수나 공업용수와 달리 농업용수는 용수공급시설의 규모를 결정하기 위한 방법론이 주로 적용되어 왔다. 이는 불가피하게 농업용수의 과다추정으로 이어질 수 있으며, 전체 수자원 계획의 관점에서 각 용도별 용수 수급계획의 불 균형을 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 방법론과 비교하여 순물소모량 개념의 접근방법의 차이에 대해 고찰하였으며, 이를 제주도 전역에 적용하여 농업 용수 수요량 특성을 분석하였다. 수요량 산정에 핵심적인 인자인 증발산량의 정확한 추정을 위하여 SWAT 모형을 적용하고, 제주도 지역의 지형 및 기상, 유 출, 물이용 특성을 반영한 유역 모델링을 수행하였으며, 기존 물수지 결과와 비교하여 모델링 자료의 신뢰성을 평가하였다. 과거기간(1992~2013년)에 대해 제주도 전체의 수요량은 연간 427 mm로 분석되었으며, 동부와 서부 해안지역을 중심으로 상대적으로 높은 수요량을 나타내었다. 유역면적 30 km2 이상인 10개 하천유역에 대해서도 연평균 수요량 및 계절별 변화 특성을 분석하였다. 또한, 장래 2020년 지역별 작물재배면적을 적용하여 10년 빈도 가뭄에 대응한 수요량을 산정한 결과 기존 제시된 수요량 대비 54% 수준으로 나타났다. 이는 수요량 산정목적에 따른 접근방법의 차이로 인해서 나타난 결과로서, 수자원 관 리 및 운영의 관점에서 보면 순물소모량만큼의 추가적인 수요가 예상되지만, 실제 공급의 관점에서는 기존 수요량만큼의 시설계획이 필요하다고 판단할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 적용된 방법론 및 결과의 실무 활용을 위해서는 공학적인 검증은 물론이고 정책적‧ 제도적인 측면에서의 합리적인 논의가 필요할 것이다.

제주용암해수는 미네랄과 영양염류가 풍부한 물로 제주만이 보유한 지하수자원이다. 본 연구의 목적은 제주용암해수의 피부 보습효과를 확인하기 위한 것이다. 피부의 건조함을 막고 수분을 유지하기 위해서는 표피 층의 장벽기능이 정상적으로 기능하고, 표피층 내 수분의 유지와 이동이 원활히 이루어져야 한다. 제주용암해수 를 각질형성세포에 처리한 결과 표피층의 분화과정과 natural moisturizing factor (NMF) 생성과정에 관여하 는 유전자인 필라그린과 caspase-14 유전자의 발현양이 증가되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 막관통 단백질 로 수분의 이동을 조절하는 aquaporin 3 (AQP3) 유전자 발현양과 단백질 발현양도 제주용암해수 처리에 의해 증가하였다. 인공피부를 이용한 실험에서 제주용암해수를 배지에 처리하고 배양한 결과 hyaluronic acid (HA) 의 수용체인 CD44의 발현양이 증가하였다. 본 연구를 통해 제주용암해수는 피부 보습과 관련된 인자들의 발현 양을 증가시켜 피부의 보습기능에 도움을 주는 것으로 사료되었다.

The ambient mass concentration and chemical composition of the PM2.5 were determined at the highland site with 1,100 m above sea level on Jeju Island from June 2013 to November 2014. Yearly averaged mass concentration of PM2.5 was 11.97±8.63 /m3. PM2.5 concentrations were highest during the spring, while they tended to be lowest during the summer. Eight water soluble ionic species attributed 45.5% to PM2.5 mass. SO4 2-, NO3 - and NH4 + were major ions, which occupied to 27.9%, 3.7% and 12.3%, respectively. The greatest contributors to total mass concentration of water-soluble ions contained in PM2.5 were sulfate, ammonium and nitrate. These three ions accounted for 96.6% in total ions mass concentration of PM2.5. We could infer that these three secondary ions exist mostly in the form of (NH4)2SO4 and NH4NO3. Ca2+ and Mg2+ had a good relationship and with r=0.9. The molar ratio of Mg2+/Ca2+ in this study was lower than the value observed in sea water and higher than that in soil dust, indicating that these two ions originated from other sources rather than ocean and soil dust in this study.

본 연구에서는 유역 물수지 방법을 기반으로 제주도 지역에 적합한 용수량 산정방법을 제안하고, 이를 기반으로 4개 하천유역에 대해 지역 및 고도에 따른 증발산량, 용수량 특성을 평가하였다. SWAT-K 유역모형을 적용하여 1992∼2013년 기간에 대해 잠재증발산량과 실제증발산량을 산정하고, 이로부터 유역의 순물소모량을 추정하였다. 고도증가에 따라 잠재 증발산량은 선형으로 감소하는 반면, 실제증발산량은 강수량에 의한 토양내 가용수분의 증가로 인해 약 400 m 고도까지는 증가하다가 이후 고도에서는 식생, 가용수분의 감소, 저온현상 등으로 인해 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 고도에 따른 순물소모 량은 강정천유역을 제외한 3개 유역에서 고도증가에 따라 순물소모량이 선형적으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 고도 200 m 이하 작물경작지에서의 순물소모량은 연간 559∼680 m로 분석되었다. 추정된 용수량을 실제 관정 이용량과 비교한 결과, 여름철(6∼8월) 양수량은 급수관행으로 인해 크게 증가하는데 비해, 작물경작에 따른 순물소모량은 오히려 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 대해서는 향후 더 많은 관정 이용량과 추가적인 대상지역을 반영하여 분석이 필요할 것으로 판단된
