This study analyzed the structural characteristics and influencing factors of fish assemblages according to lake size (small, medium, large) based on fish survey data from 90 lakes designated under the National Aquatic Ecosystem Health Monitoring Program in Korea. From surveys conducted between 2022 and 2024, a total of 107 fish species belonging to 32 families were recorded. The dominant species was the bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus, relative abundance [RA]: 21.2%), followed by Hemiculter eigenmanni as the subdominant species (RA: 13.6%). Statistical analysis based on lake size revealed significant differences across eight ecological indicators including species richness, abundance, diversity, evenness, richness, dominance, number of endemic species, and number of exotic species according to lake size. These indicators tended to increase with lake size. While this pattern may be initially attributed to positive factors associated with larger lakes, such as greater habitat heterogeneity and food resource diversity, it is considered that the primary factor influencing these results is the difference in the number of sampling sites per lake. Since sampling sites were designated based on the national water quality monitoring network, they are considered representative of each lake’s environmental conditions. Bray-Curtis similarity and SIMPER analyses identified patterns in assemblage similarity and the key contributing species for each size group. This study provides empirical evidence that demonstrates the influence of lake size on fish assemblage composition and structure and highlights the necessity of incorporating lake size and typology into fish-based assessments of lentic ecosystem health.
This study investigates how lake morphology, water quality, and water-level fluctuations (WLF) collectively shape wetland plant communities across 90 lakes in the Republic of Korea. By analyzing morphological indices (Index of Basin Permanence; IBP, Rawson Index; RI), WLF, water quality, and vegetation data, we identified four distinct lake groups through cluster analysis. Group C, comprising large dams, was characterized by the highest IBP and extreme WLF. Despite having favorable water quality, this group exhibited the lowest species richness, suggesting that severe physical disturbance from WLF is a primary limiting factor for wetland plant community. In contrast, Group A (estuarine reservoirs) showed stable water levels but high nutrient concentrations, which led to eutrophic conditions and communities dominated by a few tolerant species. Group D, which included small agricultural reservoirs and floodplain wetlands, had complex shorelines (highest RI) and supported the higher diversity of aquatic plants. This indicates that habitat heterogeneity can mitigate moderate physical disturbances and enhance richness. Canonical Correspondence Analysis and Variation Partitioning Analysis revealed that community structure is primarily influenced by hydrological disturbance, chemical stress (eutrophication), salinity, and shoreline complexity. These analyses confirmed that the interplay of these environmental factors explains community variation more effectively than any single factor alone. Our findings demonstrate that lake plant communities are shaped by a complex interaction of geomorphological, hydrological, and chemical factors. Therefore, effective lake management must adopt an integrated approach, considering both water-level regulation and shoreline complexity to enhance ecological integrity.
To conduct a comprehensive assessment of aquatic ecosystems, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of lentic ecosystems such as lakes, in addition to rivers. This requires analyzing the characteristics of biological communities in lakes and developing appropriate assessment indices. In this study, we analyzed the distributional characteristics of benthic macroinvertebrate communities collected from 90 lakes between 2022 and 2024, according to four categories of lake types (inflow stream type, lake size, salinity characteristics, and trophic states). The environmental variables used to classify lake types (catchment area, altitude, area of water, electrical conductivity, total phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a) all followed a log-normal distribution with positive skewness. Most of the lake types were characterized by inflow from lowland small streams, small or middle size, and freshwater lakes. However, in terms of trophic states, many lakes were assessed as mesotrophic or eutrophic. Analysis of seven community structure characteristics (taxa richness, taxa abundance, dominance, diversity, richness, evenness, and Lake Benthic Macroinvertebrate Assessment Index, LBAI) and two functional groups (feeding and habitat) showed clear changes primarily associated with trophic states, while other lake types showed irregular increase or decrease or similar levels. In the CCA, which analyzed dominant taxa by abundance and six environmental variables, the distribution patterns of lakes were more clearly distinguished by salinity characteristics related to electrical conductivity, unlike the community indices. The results of this study are expected to serve as basic data for future monitoring and assessment of lake aquatic ecosystems using benthic macroinvertebrates.
Lakes and reservoirs represent key freshwater ecosystems that host diverse aquatic organisms and perform essential functions such as water cycling, nutrient retention, and ecosystem service provision. Due to their semi-closed hydrological structure and limited inflow-outflow dynamics, lakes exhibit complex biological communities shaped by regional climate, topography, and land use. However, these ecosystems are increasingly exposed to multifactorial stressors-including climate change, urbanization, nutrient enrichment, and invasive species-that are causing significant structural and functional shifts in aquatic biodiversity. This review provides an integrative overview of (1) the structural and ecological characteristics of lake ecosystems and the primary drivers of biodiversity alteration, (2) the ecological functions and bioindicator potential of key organism groups including phytoplankton, zooplankton, aquatic macrophytes, benthic macroinvertebrates, and fish, and (3) the emerging role of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding in lake biodiversity monitoring. We highlight both the technical principles and challenges of eDNA analysis and discuss its potential to complement traditional survey methods for the development of integrated ecosystem health assessments. Positioned at the forefront of the 2025 special issue of Ecology and Environment, this article establishes a conceptual and methodological foundation for a national-scale freshwater biodiversity monitoring framework in Korean lakes.
2024년 3월부터 2024년 12월까지 충주호 상류에서 채집된 대농갱이(Leiocassis ussuriensis) 274개체의 척추골을 이용하여 연령과 성장을 분석하였다. 대농갱이의 연령은 척추골에 형성된 윤문을 통해 결정하였다. 본 연구 결과 척추골는 연령 측정에 적합한 자료로 판단되었다. 척추골에는 매년 4월에 1회 성장륜이 형성되었으며, 산란기는 5월부터 7월, 초륜은 약 10개월(0.83년)이 지난 시점에 형성되었다. 척추골을 기준으로 분석한 결과, 암컷과 수컷 간의 전장의 성장에는 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 척추골을 기준으로 전장(TL)에 대해 추정된 von Bertalanffy 성장식은 다음과 같다: .
LIn this study, we investigated the habitat characteristics of a Jeonju Duckjin lake in Jeonju City, Jeonbuk, in which a large group of reeve’s turtle(Mauremys reevesii)(endangered species Class II and natural monument No. 453 in Korea) was discovered. The lake where reeve’s turtle(M. reevesii) was discovered, was beside Jeonbuk National university. That lake was surrounded by lotuses, dam, and reeds. We found 12 reeve’s turtle(M. reevesii)(included with 2 juveniles), 30 red eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans)(included with 4 juveniles), 22 river cooter(Pseudemys concinna)(included with 5 juveniles), and 6 Chinese stripe necked turtle(Mauremys sinensis)(included with 4 juveniles) from June to September, 2024, respectively. A number of red-eared sliders(Trachemys scripta elegans) which threaten the survival of reeve’s turtle(M. reevesii), were also found in and around the lake. Newborn turtles in this year were not observed. However, we estimated that natural breeding had sufficiently occurred since we observed many young turtles in the lake. Furthermore, the presence of young red-eared slider individuals can be a persistent problem for reeve’s turtle(M. reevesii) as they are competing species. In conclusion, in-situ conservation method should be considered for protecting the endangered turtle and their habitat.
본 연구는 철새도래지로 지정․보호되고 있는 남양호 일대에서 물닭 Fulica atra의 조사시기에 따른 로드킬 출현 개체 현황, 서식지 간 이동, 호수 내 결빙 경향성 및 차량 이동현황 등을 토대로 물닭 개체군 보호를 위한 자료를 제공하기 위하여 이루어졌다. 조사는 2017년 11월부터 2023년 3월까지 총 50회 실시하였고, 로드킬 사망개체 확인 시 GPS 위치와 수면 결빙 경향성을 파악하였으며, 로드킬 발생지역 일대의 차종별 이용 및 이동량을 파악하였다. 연구결과, 남양호는 월동기인 12월에서 1월 사이에 기온저하로 호수 수면부가 결빙되면서 물닭의 로드킬 발생이 증가하였고, 다른 조류에 비해 물닭이 차지하는 비율(54.5%)도 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 물닭의 주요 로드킬 발생 지역은 장안대교와 남양호교 일대로 호수 내 결빙으로 먹이 섭취가 점차 어려워지면서 낙곡 등 먹이원을 찾아 호수에서 농경지로 이동하는 개체가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 물닭은 남양호에서 주변 농경지 및 도로로 이동시 주로 걸어서 이동하였고, 다수 개체에 의한 비행이 소수 개체에 비해 상대적으로 비행고도가 높았다. 조사지역에서 차량의 이동량은 302번 지방도 일대에서 가장 높았고, 차량 속도도 전체 조사지역에서 가장 빠른 것으로 나타났지만 로드킬 발생 빈도는 장안대교와 남양호교 일대에서 높았는데, 이는 남양호 일대에서의 물닭 로드킬 발생은 야생동물의 서식지와 도로 주변 일대의 다양한 요인이 중요하게 작용한다는 선행 연구와 일치하였다. 따라서 차량의 이동에 따른 물닭의 로드킬 사망을 최소화하기 위해 도로 내 차량 속도를 제어할 수 있는 과속방지턱의 추가 설치와 무인과속단속 장비의 신설이 요구되며, 물닭 차량 충돌 지역임을 확인시켜 줄 로드킬 주의 안내판과 내비게이션 등을 통한 주요 충돌 지역임을 홍보할 필요가 있다. 또한, 남양호 수변부로 물닭의 비행고도 유지를 위해 교목층의 상록침엽수림, 목재형 울타리 및 전신주 지하 매립 등으로 서식지간 이동시 비행높이를 확보할 수 있게 하고, 다층으로 수목을 식재하여 도로에서 수계 지역으로 이동을 차단할 필요가 있다. 또한, 도로 및 주변 일대로의 물닭의 이동을 제한하기 위해 가드레일 하단 차폐, 도로 주변 제초 시행, 도로 침입 경보음과 경광등의 설치를 실시하고, 로드킬 비 발생 지역을 중심으로 낙곡 등의 먹이원 공급 지역을 확대 등의 저감방안을 다양하게 수립한다면, 물닭의 로드킬 발생으로 인한 사망 요인을 분산시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 도로에서 확인된 로드킬 개체는 현지에서 발생한 사망 개체의 일부분에 지나지 않으며, 실제로 더 많은 조류가 차량 이동으로 인해 생명에 위험 및 위협요인으로 받아들여지고 있다. 따라서 철새도래지 일대에서 물닭의 로드킬을 저감하기 위해 기 제시되었던 저감방안의 수립과 모니터링을 통한 서식지 교란을 최소화한다면, 물닭의 월동지 및 번식지로 이용되고 있는 남양호에서의 개체군 감소 및 남양호 내의 조류의 종다양성 감소를 미연에 방지할 수 있을 것이다.
The cost of treating water purification plant water treatment residuals is high, with a low recovery rate and unstable effluent water quality, particularly in plants using lake and reservoir water sources in severe cold regions. Maximizing water resource utilization requires integrating water treatment residuals concentration and treatment effectively. Here, ceramic membrane technology was employed to separate supernatant and substrate after pretreatment. Optimal settling was achieved using 75 μm magnetic powder at 200 and 4 mg/L of nonionic polyacrylamide co-injection. Approximately 65% of the separated supernatant was processed by 0.1–0.2 μm Al2O3 ceramic membranes, yielding a membrane flux of 50 L/m2h and a water recovery rate of 99.8%. This resulted in removal rates of 99.3% for turbidity, 98.2% for color, and 87.7% for color and permanganate index (chemical oxygen demand, COD). Furthermore, 35% of the separated substrate underwent treatment with 0.1–0.2 μm mixed ceramic membranes of Al2O3 and SiC, achieving a membrane flux of 40 L/m2h and a water recovery rate of 73.8%. The removal rates for turbidity, color, and COD were 99.9%, 99.9%, and 82%, respectively. Overall, this process enables comprehensive concentration and treatment integration, achieving a water recovery rate of 90.7% with safe and stable effluent water quality.
새만금 호의 수질 개선을 위하여 국가에서 해수 유통을 증가시킴에 따라 해수 유통 빈도 증가로 인한 새만금 호 내 염분과 저 층수 교환 변화를 알아보기 위하여, EFDC(Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) 모델을 이용하였다. 갑문 개폐 횟수를 하루 1회에서 2회로 증 가했을 때, 새만금 호 내부 수위는 최대 약 0.7 m 상승하였다. 염분은 서측 방조제 근방에서 2.12 psu 증가하였으며, 담수 유입 부근에서는 1.18 psu 감소하였다. 입자추적을 이용하여 저층수 교환 정도 분석한 결과, 수심 5m 이하 입자 잔류율은 Case 2(1일 2회 개방)에서 Case 1(1 일 1회 개방)에 비해 2.52% 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 수문 개폐 횟수를 증가시켰을 때, 저층수 교환이 더 활발해 질 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있다. 따라서 해수 유통 증가에 따른 염분 및 저층수 교환 증가로 새만금 호의 수질 개선이 될 수 있다고 판단된다.
조류의 이상증식을 일으키는 새만금호 부영양화를 평가하기 위해 Carlson 지수를 적용하였다. 연구를 위해 2021년 월별로 새만 금호내 총 7개 정점에서 수질조사를 실시하였다. Chl.a의 농도는 동계에는 만경수계가 약간 높았고, 춘계와 하계에는 동진수계가 약간 높 게 나타났으나, 일부 시기를 제외하고는 전체적으로 호소 수질환경기준 3등급과 비슷하거나 낮은 농도를 나타내었다. COD는 만경수계와 동진수계 모두 하계와 추계에 호소 수질환경기준 4등급과 유사하거나 상회하는 수질을 나타내었다. TOC는 모든 지점에서 3등급 이내의 수질을 보였다. 총인 농도는 호수 수질환경기준 4등급을 초과하였고, 월별로는 1월과 강우 후 8월에 높게 나타났다. 수질인자간의 상관성 분석에서 염분 농도에 대한 유기물, 총인, 총질소의 상관성이 상대적으로 높게 나타나 배수갑문을 통한 해수유입과 상류 하천을 통한 담 수 유입에 의한 담수역, 기수역, 해수역의 수질 특징을 반영하고 있었다. 영양상태지수에 의한 새만금호의 부영양화 변동 특성을 보면, Chl.a와 SD, TN의 지수에서 부영양화 초기 단계의 수질을 보였으며, TP 지수의 경우 심각한 부영양화 상태를 나타내고 있었다. 수질인자 간 부영양화 지수의 크기는 모든 수계에서 TSI(TP) > TSI(TN) > TSI(SD) > TSI(CHL)의 순으로 나타났다. TSI(CHL)에 대한 TSI(TP) 및 TSI(SD)와의 편차를 2차원 평면으로 나타낸 사분면 분석 결과를 보면, 조류 성장에 대한 총인이 영향에서는 모든 수계에서 대부분의 총인 (TP)에 의한 제한적 영향은 나타나지 않았으며, 빛 감쇠에 영향을 미치는 인자는 외부로부터 유입되는 적은 입자상 물질에 의한 영향이 크게 나타나는 것으로 평가할 수 있다.
Invasive predators are one of the most damaging species groups to biodiversity. In the Nakdong River, the lake skygazer Chanodichthys erythropterus is a dominant species that is fiercely carnivorous and a concern for commercial fish. Although it is important to understand the ecological characteristics related to the feeding habit, studies on the diets of lake skygazer in Nakdong River have been limited to studies of gut contents. In this study, the trophic position (TP) and feeding habits of C. erythropterus were studied by calculating TPs using samples collected from 13 sites throughout the Nakdong River. Compound-specific isotopic analysis of amino acids provided reliable TPs from the muscle of Lake skygazer C. erythropterus without any isotope baseline. The results were approximately 3 to 3.6 and suggesting a carnivorous but size-dependent prey variation. In particular, the TP variability of C. erythropterus observed in the Nakdong River showed that it had a selective feeding habit compared to carnivorous fish species of relatively similar trophic levels.
This study investigated the species composition and bycatch status of fishes by fyke net between June and November 2020 in Asanho lake and Chungjuho lake. During the survey period, the catches in Asanho lake were identified as 2,931 individuals of 16 species from a total of six families and in Chungjuho lake were identified as 1,645 individuals of 14 species from a total of eight families. The dominant species in Asanho lake was Erythroculter erythropterus which accounted for 59.6% of the the total number of individuals and 40.5% of the total biomass caught. The dominant species in Chungjuho lake was Lepomis macrochirus which accounted for 48.2% of the the total number of individuals and Erythroculter erythropterus which accounted for 60.2% of the total biomass caught. The bycatch rates of non-commercial species in Asanho lake and Chungjuho lake were 77.0% and 82.6%, respectively. As a result of analyzing the frequency distribution of the total length of Carassius auratus and Siniperca scherzeri, which were the dominant species among commercial species, the bycatch rate of small individuals was 87.1%, and 42.7%, respectively.
새만금호는 우리나라 최대의 인공호수로 호수의 수질은 갈수록 악화되어 가고 있어 호수의 특성에 맞는 새로운 수질관리 대 책이 필요하다. 이에 새만금호의 국가수질측정망 자료를 이용하여 통계분석 기법에 의한 새만금호의 시공간적 수질특성을 분석하였다. 수질항목간의 상관성에서 수온과 TP는 상관성이 있고, 염분과 TN, 그리고 pH와 COD가 상관성이 높았다. 그 외 항목들 간에는 낮은 상관 성을 나타내어 관련성이 낮았다. 주성분 분석을 이용한 새만금호의 공간적 수질특성을 보면, 크게 4개의 그룹으로 구분되었는데, 담수 영 향구역과 해수 영향구역, 해수와 담수가 혼합되는 중간 수역이 2개 그룹으로 구분되어 각각 다른 수질특성을 나타내었다. 주성분분석을 이용한 시간적 수질특성은 계절적으로 4가지 그룹으로 구분되었다. 그룹Ⅰ은 늦봄과 초여름에 해당되는 5, 6월이고, 그룹 Ⅱ는 계절적으 로 초봄(3, 4월)과 늦가을(11, 12월)에 해당되는 시기로 나타났으며, 그룹 Ⅲ은 낮은 수온에 의한 용존산소의 증가가 나타나는 계절인 겨울 철(1, 2월)의 수질 특성을 보였고, 그룹 Ⅳ는 하계(7, 8, 9, 10월) 성층의 발달로 저층 퇴적물의 높은 인농도와 하계 고수온의 상관성을 가지 는 그룹으로 구분되었다. 이는 새만금호가 인위적으로 조성된 호수로써 상류 만경강과 동진강의 유입 영향을 받는 것과 동시에 새만금 방조제에 설치된 가력과 신시갑문을 통한 외해수 유입의 영향을 받음으로써 수질의 변동요소가 달라진 것으로 평가된다. 새만금호의 목 표수질을 달성하기 위해서는 상류 유역의 오염원 관리 대책과 함께 새만금호의 수질관리 대책을 수립할 필요가 있다.
Recently, Korean government has introduced Multi Metric Indices (MMI) using various biocommunity information for aquatic ecosystem monitoring and ecosystem health assessment at the national level. MMI is a key tool in national ecosystem health assessment programs. The MMI consists of indices that respond to different target environmental factors, including environmental disturbance (e.g. nutrients, hydrological and hydraulic situation of site etc.). We used zooplankton community information collected from Korean lakes to estimate the availability of candidate zooplankton MMI indices that can be used to assess lake ecosystem health. First, we modified the candidate indices proposed by the U.S. EPA to suit Korean conditions. The modified indices were subjected to individual index suitability analysis, correlation analysis with environmental variables, and redundancy analysis among indices, and 19 indices were finally selected. Taxonomic diversity was suggested to be an important indicator for all three taxonomic groups (cladoceran, copepod, rotifer), on the other hand, the indices using biomass for large cladocerans and copepods, while the indices using abundance were suggested for small cladocerans and rotifers.
중요한 생태계로서 습지는 막대한 직접적인 경제적 이익을 가져다줄 뿐만 아니라 확실한 생태학적·사회적 가치를 가지고 있다. 습지의 고유한 생태적 서비스기능과 사회·경제적 가치는 국가 및 세계적 생태환경 안보와 사회적 지속가능성을 보장하는 중요한 전략적 자원일 뿐 아니라 인류의 생존 및 발전과 관련된 다양한 제품과 서비스를 제공할 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구는 중국 하북성 소재 형수호 습지를 연구 대상으로 습지의 생태계 서비스기능을 객관적이고 다층적으로 논의한 것이다. 본 연구에서는 시장가치법, 여행비용법, 성과참조법, 그림자공학법, 탄소세법 그리고 생태가치법 등 다양한 생태계서비스에 대한 가치평가 방법을 채택함으로써 균형적인 습지의 물질 생산가치, 수자원 공급가치, 레저 관광가치, 과학연구 교육가치, 홍수조절 가치, 수질정화 가치, CO2흡수와 O2배출 가치 그리고 생물서식지 가치를 평가하였다. 또한 내재가치 측면에서는 조건부 가치평가법을 사용하여 응답자의 지불의사에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구 결과를 개괄하면 형수호 습지의 내재가치는 사용가치보다 컸는바 이는 간접사용가치가 직접사용가치보다 크다는 것을 시사하는 것으로 습지의 생태서비스기능이 물질생산 등의 경제적 가치를 상회하고 있음을 반증한다. 본 연구 결과가 형수호 습지생태계의 서비스 가치를 정확히 진단하고, 이를 바탕으로 향후 지속가능한 방법으로 습지를 보호 개발하는 데 기초자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.
The macroinvertebrate community in the Singal reservoir, Yedang and Juam lake was investigated three times from April 2021 to October 2021. Each lake was investigated by dividing it into inflow, middleflow, and outflow. Additionally, sampling was conducted again by dividing it into the edge and center parts at each inflow, middle-flow, and outflow. Eight families of benthic macroinvertebrates were collected except for chironomids in the sampling sites. Dominant macroinvertebrates were investigated as chironomids, and Tubificidae was sub-dominant organisms. The density of macroinvertebrate community was higher in the edge area than in the center bottom of the lakes. The density of chironomids was low when the water level was high but was high when the water level was low. In the edge area of the middle-flow in Singal reservoir, the density of chironomids was 1,208 ind. m-2 in April when the water level was high, but it increased to 1,401 ind. m-2 in July when the water level was low. Similarly, the density of chironomids at the outflow of Yedang lake was high (1,990 ind. m-2) in July when the water level was low. The density of chironomids also decreased along with the increasing water level at all edge areas of Juam lake. These results indicated that it will be necessary to consider the water level when studying macroinvertebrate communities in the lake.
A sediment control dam is an artificial structure built to prolong sedimentation in the main dam by reducing the inflow of suspended solids. These dams can affect changes in dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the water body by changing the river flow regime. The main DOM component for Yeongju Dam sediment control of the Naeseongcheon River was analyzed through 3D excitation-emission matrix (EEM) and parallel factor (PARAFAC) analyses. As a result, four humic-like components (C1~C3, C5), and three proteins, tryptophan-like components (C2, C6~C7) were detected. Among DOM components, humic-like components (autochthonous: C1, allochthonous: C2~C3) were found to be dominant during the sampling period. The total amount of DOM components and the composition ratio of each component did not show a difference for each depth according to the amount of available light (100%, 12%, and 1%). Throughout the study period, the allochthonous organic matter was continuously decomposing and converting into autochthonous organic matter; the DOM indices (fluorescence index, humification index, and freshness index) indicated the dominance of autochthonous organic matter in the river. Considering the relative abundance of cyanobacteria and that the number of bacteria cells and rotifers increased as autochthonous organic matter increased, it was suggested that the algal bloom and consequent activation of the microbial food web was affected by the composition of DOM in the water body. Research on DOM characteristics is important not only for water quality management but also for understanding the cycling of matter through microbial food web activity.
