The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries promoted the installation of eel-ladder for the purpose of creating inland water resources. Currently, eel-ladder have been installed and operated at the Geumgang Estuary Bank (2018), Yeongam Embankment (2019), and Asanman Embankment (2020). In this study, the number of glass eels in eel-ladder in 2021 was monitored and factors affecting the rise that from ocean to river of eels were investigated. Glass eels in eel-ladder were found when the salinity was relatively low, and they started when the freshwater and seawater temperatures were above 20℃. Comparing the number of occurrences by year, the largest number of glass eels was observed in 2021, but it is judged that this is not according to the distribution of glass eels in sea, but rather as a result of the investigator’s eel-ladder repair and guidance on illegal fishing.

금강수계 백곡천 상류에 서식하는 미호종개(국가 천연 기념물)를 대상으로 형광물질 주입에 의한 다중표지-재포 획법(졸리-시바모델적용)으로 개체군 크기를 추정하였다. 총 어류조사지점은 335개였고, 그 중 미호종개가 출현 지 점은 217개 였다. 본 연구에서 추정한 미호종개 평균 개 체군 크기는 6,143개체였다. 이는 2009년 환경부에서 수행한 미호종개 개체군 규모와 비교 했을때보다 41% 감 소된 것이다. 백곡천에서 본 종의 감소는 미소서식지 훼 손, 퇴적물, 서식환경의 악화 등의 영향으로 판단된다. 따 라서 백곡천 본 종의 개체군 회복 미소서식지 보호를 위 해 서식지복원 프로그램이 요구된다.

Characteristic of wastes in a unsanitary landfill at the residential development site in H city, Kyunggi-do was investigated for the disposal of huge amount of wastes. The total amount of wastes was estimated at 117,000 ton and construction solid wastes and municipal solid wastes were detected together. The portion of combustibles was very low and soils, concrete wastes, and pebbles were the major components in landfilled wastes. Because the site was the residential development site, the landfilled wastes should be removed immediately for the construction. Therefore the way that the unsanitary landfill was excavated and the wastes were sorted into three categories such as soils, noncombustibles and combustibles was selected as the best method. Soils and noncombustibles could be recycled and sorted combustibles could be re-landfilled in a smaller area or incinerated.
