서남해에 위치한 영산강 하구는 1981년 12월에 하구언이 건설되기 전까지 전형적인 하구의 모습을 보였다. 하지만 하구언이 건설되면서 수질뿐만 아니라 식물플랑크톤이나 동물플랑크톤과 같은 부유생물들의 생물상들도 변화를 나타낼 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 기존에 보고된 자료와 최근 채집한 현장조사 자료를 토대로 식물플랑크톤 군집과 식물플랑크톤 관련 환경인자들의 변화를 조사하였다. 하구언 건설 직후(1984년)의 환경 자료와 최근 자료를 비교 검토한 결과, 담수

금강하구둑 축조 전 후의 조석변화를 알기위하여 금강하구의 조류조화상수 및 비조화상수를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 하구둑 축조 후에 조화상수 및 비조화상수가 증가하였다. 또한 연도별 해도자료를 이용하여 구간별 수심변화를 분석하였다. 그 결과 남 북측도류제 사이의 수로에서는 세굴이 발생하였다. 그리고 군산외항에서 하구둑까지의 수로에서는 퇴적이 발생하였다. 조석변화는 건설과 준설, 금강하구둑의 수문닫힘의 영향으로 판단된다 그리고 수심변화는 금강하구둑 건설과

The purpose of this study is the assessment of changes in the leisure patterns of users of the Eulsook-do before and after the estuary dike construction. The following survey research method was conducted to implement the study, sampling by age was carried out selectively and randomly alike. A total of 319 persons were chosen for final analysis, excluding questionnaires answered found to be inappropriate. To measure the image of the lower Nakdong River around the Eulsook-do, with advice sought from experts, researchers, through several pilot tests, developed a 24-item semantic differential scale(SDS) that has two bi-polar adjectives at each end Study of the pre- and post- construction images of the Eulsook-do located on the coast of Busan suggests the dike construction has brought about negative changes in the Eulsook-do's overall image. There can be two alternatives for improving the negative image: restoration and development.

It is essential for port planning, coastal zone management and environmental impact study to analyze the variation of current and water quality due to the development of water area and discharged water from estuary barrage and basin etc. Mokpo sea area downstreams from a long river and two large basins, the Yongsan river and Yongam-Kumho basins discharging much of water through water gates for the purpose of flood control and prohibition of salt intrusion to the inland fresh water area. In this study, the numerical calculations were carried out for the analysis of diffusion characteristics due to discharging operation, adapting the results of tidal current simulation ADI methord is applied to the governing equation for the movement of sea water and diffusion and 6-point method to the advection terms of diffusion equation. As the results of this study, it is known that the discharging operation causes increasing and/or decreasing of current velocity and enlarging and/or depressing of pollutant diffusion limits depending on the distance from the discharging gates and the mode of discharging operation. To utilize these result, the linked gate operation and the method increasing exchange of sea water must be considered.

Mokpo coastal area is connected to the adjacent a long river and two large basins. It is essential for port planning coastal zone management and environmental impact study to analyze the data related to the ship operation and variation of current and water quality due to the development of water area including dredging reclamation and estuary barrage. The Yongsan river estuary weir and Yongam-Kumho basins discharge much of water through water gates for the purpose of flood control and prohibit salt intrusion at the inland fresh water area. To meet this purpose discharge through the gates have been done at the period of maximum water level difference between inner river and sea level. This discharged water may cause the changes of current pattern and other environmental influences in the vicinity and inner area of semi-closed Mokpo harbor. In this study ADI method is applied to the governing equation for the analysis of the changes on current pattern due to discharged water. As the results of this study it is known that the discharging operation causes many changes including the increase of current velocity at the front water area at piers approaching passage and anchorages. Discussion made on the point of problems such as restricted maneuverability and the safety of morred vessels at pier and anchorage. To minimize this influence the linked gate operation discharging warning system and laternative mooring system are recommended.
