본 연구는 합천호에서 2002~2017년까지 16년간의 장기간 동안 수질변수를 이용하여 부영양화 특성, 경험적 모델분석 및 몬순강도에 따른 수질변이 특성을 분석하였다. 장기간의 연별 수질 분석에서 합천호는 중영양 ~부영양 상태로 분석되었고, 계절별 수질분석에서 부영양화 현상은 하절기 이후 심화되는 것으로 나타났다. 장기간의 수질변이 특성은 유역의 점오염원 및 비점 오염원이 크게 변하지 않는 상황 하에서 매년 강우 사상 (집중 강우 vs. 약한 강우) 및 계절적인 강우강도에 의해 조절되는 것으로 분석되었다. 총인(TP), 총질소(TN), 생물학적 산소요구량(BOD) 및 이온 농도변화는 건기해(Dry year)와 홍수해 (Wet year)의 비교분석에서 뚜렷한 차이를 보여 영양염류, 유기물 농도 및 이온농도 변동에 가장 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 분석되었다. 특히, 수질 변수 중 매년 영양염 지표(TP, TN), 유기물 지표(BOD, COD), 총 부유물질 농도 및 1차생산력의 지표 (Chl-a)는 강수량과 정상관관계를 보였다. 녹조의 지표인 Chl-a 농도는 총인, 총질소, 및 BOD와 높은 상관관계를 보여, 타 호수처럼 영양염의 과도한 증가시기에 Chl-a농도가 낮아지는 특성과는 차이를 보였다. Log-전환된 총질소, 총인 및 Chl-a에 대한 경험적 모델(Empirical model) 분석에 따르면, Chl-a 농도는 인(phosphorus) 농도에 의해 1차적으로 조절되며, 질소(N)농도는 유의한 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 Log10TN, Log10TP, Log10CHL의 상류, 중류, 하류구간에 대한 공간적 회귀분석에서 총인과 Chl-a는 p <0.005의 유의적인 상관관계를 나타내었으나 총질소와 Chl-a는 p > 0.005의 결과를 보여, 녹조번성에 대해 인(P)이 핵심역할을 하는 것으로 분석 되었다. 또한, 총질소와 총인 모두 Chl-a와 댐에 가까운 하류구간(Lacustrine zone)에 비해 상류구간(Riverine zone)에서 더 유의적인 결과를 보여, 상류역에서 무기성 부유물의 농도의 영향에 의한 광제한 효과(Light limitation)가 거의 나타나지 않는 것으로 분석되었다.

Seasonal succession of zooplankton community and species composition was studied from 2003 to 2014 in a deep reservoir, Lake Soyang, in monsoon climate region, Korea. Annual precipitation was concentrated more than 70% between June and September and it showed remarkably that seasonal variation in water quality. Seasonal variation of water quality in Lake Soyang appeared to be more significant than annual variations, and the inflow of turbid water during the summer rainfall was the most important environmental factor. Zooplankton sepecies composition in Lake Soyang showed obvious tendency through two periods (May to June and August to October) every year. Small zooplankton (rotifer; Keratella cochlearis, Polyarthra vulgaris) dominated in spring and mesozooplankton such as copepods and crustaceans were dominant in summer and fall. Zooplankton biomass showed the maximum in September after monsoon rainfall, and chlorophyll showed a similar seasonal variation and it showed a high correlation (r=0.45). The increase of zooplankton biomass is considered to be a bottom-up effect due to the increase of primary producers and inflow of nutrients and organic matter from rainfall. In this study, we found that the variation of zooplankton community was affected by rainfall in monsoon climate region and inflow of turbid water was an important environmental factor, which influenced the water quality, zooplankton seasonal succession in Lake Soyang. It was also considered to be influenced by hydrological characteristics of lake and environment of watershed. In conclusion, seasonal succession of zooplankton species composition was the same as the PEG model. But seasonal succession of zooplankton biomass differed not only in the temperate lake but also in the monsoon region.

The objective of the study was to determine nutrition regime and limitation in the Boryeng Reservoir where there’s a water tunnel between Geum River and the reservoir. Evaluation was conducted through in situ algal bioassay experiments (in situ ABEs) using the cubitainer setting in the reservoirs. For in situ ABEs, we compared and analyzed variations in chlorophyll-a (CHL-a) and phosphorus concentrations in Boryeong Reservoir before and after the water tunnel construction. We then analyzed the nutrient effects on the reservoir. Analysis for nitrogen and phosphorus was done in the three locations of the reservoir and two locations of the ABEs. The in situ ABEs results showed that phosphorous and Nitrogen, the primary limiting nutrient regulating the algal biomass was not limited in the system. The treatments of phosphorus or simultaneous treatments of N+P showed greater algal growth than in the control of nitrate-treatments, indicating a phosphorus deficiency on the phytoplankton growth in the system. The water from the Geum River had 5 times higher total phosphorus (TP) than the water in the reservoir. Efficient management is required as pumping of the river water from Geum River may accelerate the eutrophication of the reservoir.

The incidence of freshwater algal bloom has been increasing globally in recent years and poses a major threat to environmental health. Cyanobacteria are the major component of the bloom forming community that must be monitored frequently. Their morphological identities, however, have remained elusive, due to their small size in cells and morphological resemblances among species. We have analyzed molecular diversity and seasonal changes of cyanobacteria in Paldang Reservoir, Korea, using morphological and 16S rRNA pyrosequencing methods. Samples were collected at monthly intervals from the reservoir March-December 2012. In total, 40 phylotypes of cyanobacteria were identified after comparing 49,131 pyrosequence reads. Cyanobacterial genera such as Anabaena, Aphanizomenon, Microcystis and Synechocystis were predominantly present in samples. However, the majority of cyanobacterial sequences (65.9%) identified in this study were of uncultured origins, not detected morphologically. Relative abundance of cyanobacterial sequences was observed as high in August, with no occurrence in March and December. These results suggested that pyrosequencing approach may reveal cyanobacterial diversity undetected morphologically, and may be used as reference for studying and monitoring cyanobacterial communities in aquatic environments.

The role played by reservoirs in the biogeochemical cycles of elements is a subject of ongoing debate. Recent research has revealed that reservoirs emit significant levels of greenhouse gases. To assess the importance of reservoirs in monsoon climate areas as a source of methane gas into the atmosphere, we investigated variations in organic carbon (OC) input into the reservoir, oxic state changes, and finally the amount of methane emitted (focusing on the ebullition pathway) in Lake Soyang, which is the largest reservoir in South Korea. Total organic carbon (TOC) concentrations were higher during summer after two years of heavy rainfall. The sedimentation rates of particulate organic carbon (POC) and particulate organic nitrogen (PON) were higher in the epilimnion and hypolimnion than the metalimnioin, indicating that autochthonous and allochthonous carbon made separate contributions to the TOC. During stratification, oxygen depletion occurred in the hypolimnion due to the decomposition of organic matter. Under these conditions, H2S and CH4 can be released from sediment. The methane emissions from the reservoir were much higher than from other natural lakes. However, the temporal and spatial variations of methane ebullition were huge, and were clearly dependent on many factors. Therefore, more research via a well-organized field campaign is needed to investigate methane emissions.

A total of 594 reservoirs (17%), which are managed by KRC, equipped with earthquake-resistant facilities whereas remaining ones did not. In addition, reservoirs were placed without the effect of geological structures (i.e., fault and lineament). Therefore, development on technique for alleviating the potential hazards by natural disasters along faults and lineaments has required. In addition, an effective reinforcement guideline related to the geological vulnerabilities around reservoirs has required. The final goal of this study is to suggest the effective maintenance for the safety of earth fill dams. A radius 2 km, based on the center of the reservoir in the study area was set as the range of vulnerability impacts of each reservoir. Seismic design, precise safety diagnosis, seismic influence and geological structure were analyzed for the influence range of each reservoir. To classify the vulnerability of geological disasters according to the fault distribution around the reservoir, evaluation index of seismic performance, precise safety diagnosis, seismic influence and geological structure were also developed for each reservoir, which were a component of the vulnerability assessment of geological disasters. As a result, the reservoir with the highest vulnerability to geological disasters in the pilot district was analyzed as Kidong reservoir with an evaluation index of 0.364. Within the radius of 100km from the epicenter of the Pohang earthquake, the number of agricultural infrastructure facilities subject to urgent inspections were 1,180 including reservoirs, pumping stations and intakes. Four reservoirs were directly damaged by earthquake among 724 agricultural reservoirs. As a result of the precise inspection and electrical resistivity survey of the reservoir after the earthquake, it was reported that cracks on the crest of reservoirs were not a cause of concern. However, we are constantly monitoring the safety of agricultural facilities by Pohang aftershocks.

국가 신재생에너지개발 장려정책으로 농업용저수지 내 수상태양광 발전시설 설치가 확대되고 있음에도 불구하고, 수상태양광 발전시설 설치가 수생태계에 미치는 영향을 판 단할 수 있는 장기적인 조사나 과학적 연구가 부족한 실정 이다(노 등, 2015). 일반적으로 수상 태양광 발전시설 설치 지역은 수온, 증발량 등의 물리적 환경변화가 국지적으로 발생하기 때문에(노 등, 2014; Melvin, 2015; Sahu, 2016), 미소생태계(microecosystem)가 형성되어 수생생물의 분포 및 군집특성의 변화로 이어진다. 따라서 수상태양광 설치지 역과 설치가 되지 않은 지역 간 어류군집 특성을 비교함으 로서 수상태양광 설치가 수생태계에 미치고 있는 영향을 간접적으로 유추할 수 있다. 특히, 수생태계의 영양단계 (trophic level)에서 상위단계에 해당하는 어류의 군집 특성 및 분포는 미소생태계의 형성유무와 형성된 미소생태계의 영양구조를 설명할 수 있는 근거가 된다. 수상태양광이 설치되어 있는 2개의 저수지는 실험군으로 하였고, 기후, 수상태양광 규모(전력생산량), 저수지 규모, 유역특성이 비슷한 인근의 저수지 1개소는 대조군으로 선 정하였다. 조사지점은 수상태양광 설치지역으로부터 일정 거리별(200~250m)로 6지점(수상태양광 발전시설 설치지 점을 기점으로 1~6번으로 지점번호 부여)을 선정하였으며, 지점별로 12절 자망(50m)을 설치한 후 24시간이 경과된 시점에서 어류를 채집하여 동정하였다. 장마기간 전·후로 총 2회의 어류조사를 실시하였으며, 현장조사 결과를 토대 로 종다양도를 산출하고 지점 간 유사도를 살펴보기 위해서 군집분석을 실시하였다. 현장 조사결과, 실험군인 A저수지는 총 8종 129개체가 채집되었으며, 블루길이 전체 개체수의 78.3%로 우점하였 다. 상대적으로 수변지역과 가까운 2번과 6번 지점이 각 5종, 7종으로 종수가 많았으며, 수상태양광 발전시설이 설 치된 지역과 가장 인접한 1번 지점에서는 타 조사지점에서 도 공통적으로 관찰되는 2종(백조어, 블루길)이 유사한 개 체수로 관찰되었다. 군집의 유사도 역시 1, 3번 지점과 4, 5번 지점, 그리고 2번, 6번 지점으로 그룹화되어, 수상태양 광 발전시설 설치지역으로부터 이격거리별로 종다양도 변 화는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 실험군인 B저수지는 총 3종만 이 관찰되어 어류 군집특성을 파악하기에 어려움이 있었다. 대조군인 C저수지는 총 11종 950개체가 채집되었으며, 치 리와 모래무지가 전체 종조성의 83.2%를 차지하였다. 출현 종수가 6~7종으로 조사지점별로 종조성이 유사하였으며, 군집분석 결과 역시 1, 3, 4번 지점과 2, 6번, 5번 지점으로 그룹화되어 특별한 경향성을 보이지 않았다. 본 연구결과로부터 수상태양광 발전시설 설치로 인한 물 리적 환경변화는 어류 군집특성의 변화를 유도할 만큼 크지 않다는 것을 알 수 있다. 실제 실험군에 설치된 수상태양광 발전시설은 수면과 접촉되지 않고 일정한 높이로 이격되어 있고, 태양광 패널을 지지하는 부력체 역시 수평적인 물순 환을 저해하지 않아 인근 수체와 연속적인 생태계로 볼 수 있다. 다만 본 연구의 조사방법이 수상태양광 발전시설 설 치지역과 그렇지 않은 지역의 어류군집 특성을 구분할 만큼 정밀도가 높지 않았다는 연구의 한계가 있을 수 있다. 따라 서 태양광 발전설비에 의한 수생태계 영향 규명을 위해서는 저수지 전체를 대상으로 수상태양광 발전시설 설치로 인한 에너지유입량, 1차 생산량 변화, 수생태계 영양구조 및 먹이 그물 변화 등에 대한 시스템적 연구가 함께 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

Cyanobacteria Aphanizomenon population is widely distributed in the world, and well known as harmful algae by producing toxins and off-flavor materials, thus belonging to one of the taxa that became more interested in the field of limnoecology. In this study, the frequency, intensity, and duration of Aphanizomenon occurrence were increased with the abnormal drawdown of water level in the winter in Boryeong Reservoir, and the spatial and temporal characteristics of them are compared with each other in the perspective of hydrometeorology (1998 to 2017) and limnology (2010 to 2017). In Korea, Aphanizomenon flourished mainly in high temperature, and the appearance in the low temperature was rare in total five times. The harmful cyanobacteria Aphanizomenon was observed in the low temperature (December to February) in Boryeong Reservoir from 2014, and then reached a maximum value of 2,160 cells mL-1 in January 2017. In addition, the period exceeding 1,000 cells mL-1 at this time was more than 3 months. This was simultaneously associated with abnormal water level fluctuation in the low temperature (<10℃). The large drawdown of water level in the winter season has the potential to promote or amplify the germination and development of harmful algae. Also, subsequent water quality and ecological impacts (e.g., algal toxins and off-flavor substances) need to be considered carefully.

This study explored spatiotemporal variability of water quality in correspondence with hydrometeorological factors in the four stations of Euiam Reservoir located in the upstream region of the North-Han River from May 2012 to December 2015. Seasonal effect was apparent in the variation of water temperature, DO, electric conductivity and TSS during the study period. Stratification in the water column was observed in the near dam site every year and vanished between August and October. Increase of nitrogen nutrients was observed when inflowing discharge was low, while phosphorus increase was distinct both during the early season with increase of inflowing discharge and the period of severe draught persistent. Duration persisting high concentration of Chl-a (>25 mg m-3: the eutrophic status criterion, OECD, 1982) was 1~2 months of the whole year in 2014~2015, while it was almost 4 months in 2013. Water quality of Euiam Reservoir appeared to be affected basically by geomorphology and source of pollutants, such as longitudinally linked instream islands and Aggregate Island, inflowing urban stream, and wastewater treatment plant discharge. While inflowing discharge from the dams upstream and outflow pattern causing water level change seem to largely govern the variability of water quality in this particular system. In the process of spatiotemporal water quality change, factors related to climate (e.g. flood, typhoon, abruptly high rainfall, scorching heat of summer), hydrology (amount of flow and water level) might be attributed to water pulse, dilution, backflow, uptake, and sedimentation. This study showed that change of water quality in Euiam Reservoir was very dynamic and suggested that its effect could be delivered to downstream (Cheongpyeong and Paldang Reservoirs) through year-round discharge for hydropower generation.

Daecheong Reservoir was made by the construction of a large dam (>15 m in height) on the middle to downstream of the Geum River and the discharge systems have the watergate-spillway (WS), a hydropower penstock (HPP), and two intake towers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the limnological anomalies of turbid water reduction, green algae phenomenon, and oligotrophic state in the lower part of reservoir dam site, and compared with hydro-meteorological factors. Field surveys were conducted in two stations of near dam and the outlet of HPP with one week intervals from January to December 2000. Rainfall was closely related to the fluctuations of inflow, outflow and water level. The rainfall pattern was depended on the storm of monsoon and typhoon, and the increase of discharge and turbidity responded more strongly to the intensity than the frequency. Water temperature and DO fluctuations within the reservoir water layer were influenced by meteorological and hydrological events, and these were mainly caused by water level fluctuation based on temperature stratification, density current and discharge types. The discharges of WS and HPP induced to the flow of water bodies and the outflows of turbid water and nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, respectively. Especially, when hypoxic or low-oxygen condition was present in the bottom water, the discharge through HPP has contributed significantly to the outflow of phosphorus released from the sediment into the downstream of dam. In addition, HPP effluent which be continuously operated throughout the year, was the main factor that could change to a low trophic level in the downreservoir (lacustrine zone). And water-bloom (green-tide) occurring in the lower part of reservoir was the result that the water body of upreservoir being transported and diffused toward the downreseroir, when discharging through the WS. Finally, the hydropower effluent was included the importance and dynamics that could have a temporal and spatial impacts on the physical, chemical and biological factors of the reservoir ecosystem.

This study explored spatiotemporal variability of water quality in correspondence with hydrometeorological factors in the five stations of Paldang Reservoir located in the Han River during 4 years from May 2012 to December 2015. Variability of basic water quality factors were largely related with seasonal fluctuations of hydrology. Temperature stratification occurred in the deep dam station, and prolonged hypoxia was observed during the draught year. Nitrogen nutrients were increased with decreasing inflow in which changing pattern of NH4 reversed to NO3 by the effect of treated wastewater effluent. Phosphorus increase was manifest during the period of high inflow or severe drought. Chl-a variation was reversely related with both flow change and AGP (algal growth potential) variations. Our study demonstrated that water quality variability in Paldang Reservoir was largely attributed to both natural and operational changes of inflow and outflow (including water intake) based on major pollution source of the treated wastewater (total amount of 472×103 m3 d-1) entering to the water system from watershed. In the process of water quality variability, meteorological (e.g., flood, typhoon, abnormal rainfall, scorching heat of summer) and hydrological factors (inflow and discharge) were likely to work dynamically with nutrients pulse, dilution, absorption, concentration and sedimentation. We underline comprehensive limnological study related to hydro-meteorolology to understand short- and long-term water quality variability in river-type large reservoir and suggest the necessity of P-free wastewater treatment for the effective measure of reducing pollution level of Paldang drinking water resource.

This study was conducted to test the green-tide mitigation technique in the lower part of the Sook Stream (Chusori) of Daecheong Reservoir from June 27 to August 24, 2014. And the effects were compared with weekly monitoring result of the watching station of the algae alert system (AAS) as well as test beds reach. The green-tide in a test bed was begun from the upstream, and it was gradually transferred and spread toward the downstream by the hydrological factors. The total amount of algae removed by algae removal device during the test period was 33,920 kg, and solids dewatered by natural gravity was 8,480 kg. Also chlorophyll-a content was 2.83 kg, the number of blue-green algae cells was equivalent to 78.6×1014 cells. Compared with the results of the watching station of AAS, the pre-concentrate removal work in the outbreak waters was able to suggest the possibility of green-tide mitigation. In addition, an effective management of the green-tide was required spatial and temporal occurrence information and practical device technology. Particularly, the optimal timing of algae removal in the river-reservoir hybrid system was recommended at times before the monsoon rainy season and reached the lowest water level.

본 연구에서는 건천화된 농촌 소하천의 환경을 개선하기 위해 농업용 저수지의 방류 능력을 평가하고 하천환경용수 방류에 따른 하류하천의 수질변화를 모의하였다. 대상유역은 경상남도 고성군 하이면에 위치한 봉현저수지 및 봉현천을 선정하였으며, 2011년부터 2013년까지 현장조사를 실시하였다. 유량측 정이 용이한 총 5개 지점을 선정하여 수질과 유량자료를 수집하였고, 기상자료는 지리적으로 인접한 진 주 기상관측소의 2000년부터 2013년까지 일 자료를 수집하였다. 저수지 방류조건 전후의 하천수질 (BOD, SS, TN, TP)을 비교, 분석하기 위한 수질모형으로 QUAL2K 모델을 선정하였다. 대상유역에 대 한 기상자료, 하천자료, 수질자료 등의 입력자료를 구축한 후 QUAL2K 모형을 적용하여 실측값과 비교 한 결과, BOD, SS, TN, 그리고 TP 항목에 대한 모형의 평가지표는 다음과 같이 나타났다. R2는 0.8508~0.9913, RMSE 0.005~0.52mg/L, NSE 0.949~0.998로 나타나 비교적 높은 일치도를 나타냈 다. 저수지 물수지 모형을 이용하여 다양한 저수지 방류 시나리오에 대해 분석한 결과, 적정 방류량은 3,000ton/day로 나타났다. 방류 전후의 수질을 비교한 결과 BOD와 SS의 경우 각각 9.2%, 21.0% 증가 하여 오히려 수질이 오염되는 것으로 나타났으며, TN과 TP는 각각 -9.0%, -2.4% 감소하여 수질이 개 선되는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 하천환경용수를 공급을 통해 건천화를 완화하더라도 저수지 수질에 따라 하류하천의 수질이 오염될 수도 있음을 나타내었다.

Daecheong Reservoir has suffered eutrophication and water-blooms by blue-green algae from initial impoundment, and algae alert system (AAS) was introduced in 1997. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of rainfall and hydrological factors in increase or decrease variability of green-tide and prolonged AAS, studied and analyzed the current situation of AAS has been operating for 19 years(1997~2015) in Daecheong Reservoir. The total issued number of AAS was 46 times, the most frequent period in August and September were 22 times (752 days) and 16 times (431 days), respectively, it accounted for 82.6%. Many number and frequency during this period were significantly associated with rainfall, various discharge and water level. Rainfall and hydrological events are associated with the rainy season of monsoon-Changma and the typhoon, it was concentrated in June~September, total rainfall in this period accounted for 69.9% of the annual rainfall. An increase in inflows was dependent on the intensity, frequency and the amount of rainfall. Accounted for 68.4% of the total annual inflow, it was a time when the most rapidly changing hydrological variability in the reservoir. The total outflow was closely related to rainfall, and compared the distinctive characteristics of hydropower generation and watergate-spillway discharge. In addition, the upreservoir zone of Daecheong Reservoir could be vulnerable to green-tide by regulating discharge of the upstream dam. The issue of AAS was strongly related to the with and without of watergate-spillway discharge. The watergate-spillway discharge had a total of 25 times, it was maximum 17 days from July to September in the year. And the opening times and each duration of the watergate were 1~4 times and the range of 3~37 days, respectively. When the watergate opened, the issue of AAS was maintained to 13 years and the movement of water bodies and green-tide was great about five times than that of non-open, had a profound effect on prolonged AAS within reservoir. In Daecheong Reservoir, Chusori (CHU) area of the So-ok Stream was still showing serious symptoms green-tide levels in the summer, but Janggye (JAN) waters of the main reservoir was pointed out that more important. AAS will be operated by an absolutely consider the rainfall and hydrological effects around the watergate-spillway discharge. The measures of green-tide will be included in the limnological studies more suited to the characteristics of the watershed and reservoir of the our country. Finally, from now on, we will prepare the systematic management and guidelines for vulnerable zone water-blooms that are the source within the reservoir before the monsoon rather than waiting for the arrival of green-tide on the operating stations of AAS.

Diatom Achnanthes, Cymbella, Gomphonema, and Navicula were distributed predominantly in the periphytic algae. Benthic macroinvertebrates were mostly aquatic insects and freshwater shellfish, the aquatic insects were abundant Ephemeroptera and Trichoptera. Freshwater fish was the dominant Zacco platypus, fish species varied toward the downstream. Birds were mainly observed in four species, and species Egretta garzetta, which was distributed in a wide area of the Seom River. In mammals, Lutra lutra of Mustelidae was identified that the number of inhabit widely. In aspects of the ecological trophic level, the Seom River was maintained at a relatively stable state in the producer and the consumer relationship. The results of this study will expected to be utilized as a useful data for understanding the structure and function of the lotic and lentic ecosystems.

예당저수지의 수변 농경지의 어류와 양서류 분포 특성을 파악하고자 실시되었다. 이를 위해 비수변 농경지를 대조군 지역으로 설정하고 수변 농경지의 어류와 양서류의 개체수 및 생물량 비교, 어류와 양서류 분포에 영향을 주는 환경요소 분석, 시기별 개체수 변동 특성을 연구하였다. 전체 조사 대상지역에서 포획된 어류종수는 8과 13종이며, 양서류 종수는 5종이었다. 수변 농경지에서는 미꾸리과 어류, 붕어, 잉어 등의 13종의 어종이 포획되었고, 비수변 농경지에서는 미꾸리 과 어류, 붕어 등의 3종의 어종이 포획되었다. 양서류는 황소개구리, 참개구리, 청개구리, 한국산개구리, 옴개구리 총 5종의 유생이 포획되었는데, 비수변 농경지에서는 5종의 양서류 유생이 포획되었고, 수변 농경지에서는 2종의 양서류 유생이 포획되었다. 수변 농경지와 비수변 농경지의 어류와 양서류 분포 특성을 분석한 결과, 수변 농경지에는 잉어과 어류가 많이 포획되었으며, 비수변 농경지에는 미꾸리과 어류가 많이 포획되었다. 어류의 분포에 영향을 주는 환경요소 분석결과, 잉어과 어류는 겨울철에 담수되고, 예당저수지와의 거리가 가까운 농경지에서 주로 출현할 가능성 이 높으며, 미꾸리과 어류는 산간 저수지로부터 용수가 공급되고, 논과 배수로가 잘 연결되어 있는 농경지를 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 양서류의 경우, 비수변 농경지에서 수변 농경지보다 양서류의 유생이 많이 포획되었다. 수변 농경지에 서는 황소개구리가 우점하였고, 비수변 농경지에서는 참개구리가 우점하였다. 황소개구리 유생의 분포에 영향을 주는 주요 환경요소는 겨울철에 담수되고 예당저수지에 가까운 농경지에서 출현할 가능성이 높았고, 참개구리의 경우는 산까지의 거리가 가깝고 예당저수지까지의 거리가 멀수록 출현할 가능성이 높았다.

지반진동은 지진원, 지각감쇠 및 지반의 증폭특성 등 3가지 주요 인자로 구성되어 있다. 이 중 지반 증폭특성은 지진원 및 지각감쇠를 신뢰성 있게 평가하기 위해 반드시 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 수평/수직(H/V) 스펙트럼 비를 이용하여 각 관측소의 지반증폭 특성을 평가하는 것이다. 주파수 영역에서 H/V 스펙트럼 비를 구하는 방법은 Nakamura(1989)에 의해 처음으로 제시되었으며, 초기에는 상시미동의 표면파 특성을 이해하기 위해 사용되어 왔다. 최 근에 와서 강진동의 전단파 에너지 등으로 확장되면서 지반 증폭특성 연구에 많이 이용되고 있다. 본 연구는 예당저수 지 인근에 4개의 관측소에서 관측된 6개의 가속도 지반진동을 이용하여 H/V 스펙트럼 비를 분석하였고 각 지반진동의 S파, Coda파 및 배경잡음 각각으로부터 분석된 지반증폭 특성을 상호 비교하였다. 분석결과, 4개 관측소는 각각의 우월 주파수 대역(YDS: ~11 Hz, YDU: ~4 Hz, YDD: ~7 Hz)에서 관측소 고유의 증폭특성을 보여준다. 본 연구의 도출 결과 와 다른 방법을 통해 구한 결과의 비교 평가는 국내 지반의 동적특성 및 지반분류 연구에 유익한 정보가 될 것으로 판 단된다.
