Seasonal and vertical distribution of water quality were investigated from May 2001 to June 2002 in Kumoh reservoir located nearby Kumi City, Kyungpook. Kumoh reservoir that lost the role of agricultural irrigation is currently of rapid eutrophication. The vertical distribution of DO was observed clinograde with hypolimnetic anoxic zone. T-P concentrations at the surface ranged from 0.008 to 0.152 mgP/L and T-N concentrations ranged from 1.4 to 3.0mgN/L. The vertical and seasonal variation of T-N was smaller than T-P. DOC concentrations, indicator of organic matter pollution, ranged from 2.8 to 5.4 mgC/L. Apportionment of Total-DOC (T-DOC) indicated that 14% of T-DOC was attributed to Labile-DOC(L-DOC) and the rest was due to Refractory- DOC(R-DOC). The values of TSI(Trophic State Index) ranged between 44 and 52 indicating that Kumoh reservoir is under mesotrophic condition. The results of this study indicate that Kumoh reservoir is likely to be under influence of eutrophication and thus water quality will be aggravated. Therefore, the Kumoh reservoir requires further treatment to improve water quality and a plan of the reusing water resource should be developed.
