황토에 의한 Cochlodinium 종의 제거효과실험을 실내와 현장조사를 통하여 실시하였다. 실내실험은 Cochiodinium 적조생물을 배양하여 황토 및 이를 산처리로 활성화시켜 살포농도를 $2\;g/\ell$에서 $10\lg/\ell$로하여 제거효율을 조사하였다. 황토의 적조생물제 거효과는 살포농도 $2\;g/\ell$에서 $43\%$, $6\;g/\iota$에서 $64\%$로 점차 향상되기 시작하여 $10g/{\ell}$에서는 살포 60분후 $88\%$의 제거효과를 나타냈다. 현장조사는 Cochlodinium 적조가 빈발한 통영 활목-오비도해역에서 1996년 9월에 2회 실시되었다. 황토살포 전후로 해서 실시된 조사에서도 역시 황토살포 30분후에 Cochlodinium 적조생물이 $72\~83\%$가 제거됨으로써 좋은 제거효과를 나타냈다. 수질인자중 수온과 pH는 살포전후 변화가 없었으나 용존산소, 화학적산소요구량 및 클로로필 a의 농도는 다소 감소하였고 부유물질은 증가하였다. 부영양화 인자중 용존무기인은 살포전후 농도변화가 없는 반면, 용존무기질소는 살포후가 살포전에 비해 다소 감소하였다. 따라서 황토살포는 $10\;g/{\ell}$전후로 살포하는 것이 적조생물 제거효과에 바람직하며 수질에도 큰 영향이 없는 것으로 조사되었다. The clay and yellow loess have capability to adsorb and precipitate particles. The removal efficiencyes of those flocculents on the dinoflagellate, Cochlodinium polykrikoides, have been studied in laboratory and in field near Tongyong fish farm in September, 1996. The removal efficiencyes in the laboratory experiment was $43\%$ for $2\;g/{\ell}$, $64\%$ for $6g/{\ell}$ and $88\%$ for $10\;g/{\ell}$ in one hour after dispersion. No big difference of removal efficiency was found between the raw and the acid-activated loess. In the field survey, the removal rates ranged from 72 to $80\%$ in 30 min after the dispersion. The effect of loess scattering on water quality was estimated. The concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), chemical of gen demand (COD) and chlorophyll a decreased more or less after dispersion, while the concentration of suspended solid (SS) increased. The concentrations of dissolved oxygen (DO) and dissolved inorganic phosphorous (DIP) were kept constant. These results indicated that the dispersion concentration of more than $10g/{\ell}$ has a good removal efficiency of above $80\%$ without big variation of water quality after dispersion of yellow loess.

동해연안의 수질특성 및 상태를 파악하기 위하여 2004년부터 2010년까지의 국가해양환경측정망 조사결과를 이용하여 수질인자의 거동을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 통계적 방법을 이용한 수질인자간의 상관관계 및 주성분 분석을 통하여 해역별 수질환경 특성을 파악하였으며, OECD의 부영양화 기준과 부영양도, 그리고 유기오염도 지수의 산정으로 해역별 오염상태를 평가하였다. 수질인자간의 주성분 분석에서 동해연안은 클로로필 a와 염분이 주요인자로 설명되는 2개의 요인으로 구분되었다. 해역별로는 죽변을 경계로 남부와 중부로 분류되었으며, 동해 중부 해역에서는 죽변, 그리고 남부해역에서는 감포연안이 별도로 분류되었다. 동해연안의 영양상태는 Oligotrophic~Mesotrophic 수준으로 구분되었으며, 부영양화도는 1 이하로 평가되었다. 유기오염지수는 동해연안 전 해역에서 양호한 수질상태로서 평가되었다. This study aims to investigate characteristics of water quality factors by using survey results of national marine environmental monitoring system from 2004 to 2010 at coastal area of the East Sea of Korea. In this study, we chose statistical methods to analyze the correlation among water quality parameters and principal component analysis for characteristics of each water environment. In addition to this, we evaluated each water's pollution level based on eutrophication standard of OECD, Eutrophication Index(EI), and Organic Pollution Index(OPI). Major factors were chlorophyll a and salt according to the analysis at coastal area of the East Sea. The sea was divided into the south and the central part by Jukbyeon. Also, Jukbyeon in the central part of the East Sea and Gampo in the southern sea coastal waters have been classified separately. The nutritional status of coastal area of East Sea presented Mesotrophic to Oligotrophic level and EI showed less than 1. OPI in all of the coastal area at the East Sea represented that the water quality condition was favorable.

실뱀장어는 산란장인 마리아나해구에서 산란 및 부화과정을 거쳐, 뱀장어 자어인 렙토세팔루스 단계에서 북적도 해류와 쿠로시오 해류를 따라 회유하면서 변태과정을 거치게 된다. 변태된 실뱀장어는 동중국해를 지나 우리나라 연안으로 올라오는데 실뱀장어의 먹이원에 대해서는 알려진 바가 없었다. 실뱀장어 먹이원은 안정동위원소 비값을 측정하여 수서 생태계에 존재하는 먹이망에 의한 단계별 증가율을 해석함으로써 가능하다. 2012년 4월에 채집된 자연산 실뱀장어의 탄소 및 질소 안정동위원소를 측정하여 먹이원을 밝히기 위하여 실뱀장어 ${\delta}^{13}C$과 ${\delta}^{15}N$를 분석하고 서해안 및 동중국해 북부해역의 가용 가능한 입자유기물질에 대한 값들을 분석, 비교하였다. 우리나라 서해안에서 채집된 실뱀장어의 ${\delta}^{13}C$값은 $-20.7{\pm}0.1$‰, ${\delta}^{15}N$값은 $5.0{\pm}0.2$‰로 나타났다. 실뱀장어의 가용 먹이원으로 추정되는 입자유기물질 중 서해안의 ${\delta}^{13}C$값은 $-24.0{\pm}0.3$‰이고, ${\delta}^{15}N$값은 $2.8{\pm}0.4$‰이었고, 동중국해 북부해역의 ${\delta}^{13}C$값은 $-24.5{\pm}0.5$‰이고, ${\delta}^{15}N$값은 $0.8{\pm}0.3$‰이었다. 일반적으로 알려진 영양단계에 따른 동위원소 분별 비값 증가율을 고려할 때, 본 연구에서 나타난 서해안과 동중국해의 POM과 서해안에서 채집된 실뱀장어의 ${\delta}^{13}C$과 ${\delta}^{15}N$값의 차이는 서해안과 동중국해의 입자유기물질이 자연산 실뱀장어의 먹이원으로써 이용되지 않았다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 우리나라 연안에서 채집되는 실뱀장어는 뱀장어 자어인 렙토세팔루스에서 변태과정을 거친 이후에는 먹이를 섭이하지 않고 회유하는 것으로 나타났다. Glass eels (Anguilla japonica) are caught in the west coast of Korea on their migratory route from the breeding grounds in the Mariana Trench along the North Equatorial Current and the Kuroshio Current. To identify the food source of natural glass eels, we analyzed the stable C and N isotopes of glass eels caught in April 2012 and investigated possible food sources in the survey area. In particular, with respect to the stable C and N isotopes of particulate organic matter, we extended the surveying area to the northern parts of East China Sea as well as the west coast of Korea. The stable C and N isotope ratios of the glass eels caught in the west coast were found to be $-20.7{\pm}0.1$‰ and $5.0{\pm}0.2$‰, respectively. The stable C and N isotope ratios of the particulate organic matter in the west coast of Korea, in which the glass eels are assumed to eat the particulate organic matter as food source, were estimated to be $-24.0{\pm}0.3$‰ and $2.8{\pm}0.4$‰, respectively. Similar data were obtained from the northern part of the East China Sea, $-24.5{\pm}0.5$‰ and $0.8{\pm}0.3$‰. The stable isotope ratios showed values differing from the stepwise increasing rates up the food web in natural aquatic ecosystem, showing that particulate organic matter in the west coast of Korea and East China Sea was not served as the glass eels food source. This result suggested that the glass eels caught in the west coast might not assimilate nutrition from the marine environment during long migration.

백승홍,이인석,최민규,이부한,황동운,김숙양,최희구,Baek, Seung-Hong,Lee, In-Seok,Choi, Minkyu,Lee, Boo-Han,Hwang, Dong-Woon,Kim, Sook-Yang,Choi, Hee-Gu 한국해양학회 2013 바다 Vol.18 No.4

울산만 내 퇴적물에 대하여 다이옥신/퓨란류(polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans, PCDD/Fs)와 다이옥신류 피씨비(dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls, DL-PCBs), PBDEs(polybrominated diphenyl ethers)의 잔류수준을 조사하고 분포를 평가하였다. 33개 정점에서 채취한 퇴적물 중 PCDD/Fs, DL-PCBs, PBDEs는 각각 0.11~4.86(평균${\pm}$표준편차, $1.81{\pm}1.04$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ 건중량(dw), 0.06~44.2($4.02{\pm}7.99$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ dw, 2.81~63.8($19.4{\pm}13.9$) ng $g^{-1}$ dw 수준으로 검출되었다. 총 다이옥신류(PCDD/Fs+DL-PCBs)에 대하여 DL-PCBs가 약 88%로 PCDD/Fs에 비해 높은 기여율을 나타내었다. 또한, 울산만 내부에 위치한 정점의 퇴적물은 외부 정점에 비해 높은 농도수준을 보였다 (p<0.05). 총 다이옥신류 중 PCDD/Fs는 고염소의 DD/Fs에서 높은 기여율을 차지하였으며, 이성질체의 분포패턴은 연소공정의 영향이 큰 공업지역 퇴적물의 특성을 나타내었다. DL-PCBs는 PCB77, -105, -118가 주요 이성질체로써, 상업용 PCB 제품과 분포특성이 유사하게 나타났다. 또한, 퇴적물 내 PBDEs 분포에서 BDE209가 주요 이성질체로 나타났으며, 이는 상업용 deca-BDE 제품의 사용량에 의한 영향으로 판단된다. We investigated the concentrations and distribution patterns of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans(PCDD/Fs), 12 dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls(DL-PCBs) and 24 polybrominated diphenyl ethers(PBDEs) in sediments from Ulsan Bay in Korea. The concentrations of PCDD/Fs, DL-PCBs, and PBDEs in 33 sediment samples ranged from 0.11 to 4.86($1.81{\pm}1.04$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ dry weight(dw), 0.06 to 44.2($4.02{\pm}7.99$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ dw, and 2.81 to 63.8($19.4{\pm}13.9$) ng $g^{-1}$ dw, respectively. DL-PCBs had dominant contributions(mean, 88%) of total TEQ concentrations in sediment. The concentrations of target compounds in inner locations were higher than those in outer locations in Ulsan Bay (p<0.05). The dominant contribution of highly chlorinated DD/Fs in sediment was associated with combustion process from industrial complexes. Distribution pattern of DL-PCBs was similar with those of commercial PCB products. BDE209 was a dominant congener in sediment, suggesting high use amount of commercial deca-BDE product in surrounding areas.

백승홍,이인석,김혜선,최민규,황동운,김숙양,최희구,baek, Seung-Hong,Lee, In-Seok,Kim, Hye-Seon,Choi, Minkyu,Hwang, Dong-Woon,Kim, Sook-Yang,Choi, Hee-Gu 한국해양학회 2012 바다 Vol.17 No.4

국내 연안의 다양한 양식장의 퇴적물과 양식생물에 대하여 다이옥신류(PCDD/Fs), 다이옥신류피씨비(DLPCBs), 및 브롬화방염제(PBDEs)의 잔류수준을 조사하고 분포를 평가하였다. 양식장 퇴적물 중 PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, PBDEs는 각각 0.03~2.9(평균${\pm}$표준편차, $1.2{\pm}0.89$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ 건중량(dw), 불검출~1.1($0.09{\pm}0.19$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ dw, 불검출~16.6($2.96{\pm}3.53$) ng $g^{-1}$ dw 수준으로 검출되었다. 또한 양식생물 체내 함유량은 각각 불검출~0.24($0.07{\pm}0.06$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ 습중량(ww), 불검출~0.11($0.04{\pm}0.04$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ ww, 0.05~0.29($0.13{\pm}0.06$) ng $g^{-1}$ ww 수준이었다. 국내 연안 중 동해안과 남해안에 위치한 양식장 퇴적물 중 총다이옥신류(PCDD/Fs+DLPCBs)와 PBDEs의 농도는 서해안보다 약 4~7배 높은 수준을 보였다. 퇴적물에서는 총다이옥신류에 대한 PCDD/Fs 기여율이 대부분(평균 94%)을 차지했지만, 양식생물에서는 DLPCBs가 약 33% 수준으로 퇴적물에 비해 높은 기여율을 보였다. PBDEs 중에서는 양식장 퇴적물과 생물 모두에서 BDE209가 가장 높게 검출되었다. 이전 연구와 비교했을 때, 국내연안 퇴적물과 양식생물 중 PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, PBDEs의 잔류수준은 대체로 감소하는 추세에 있는 것으로 판단된다. We investigated the concentration levels and evaluated the distributions of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans(PCDD/Fs), 12 dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls(DLPCBs) and 24 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in sediment and organism from various culturing grounds in Korean coast. The levels of PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, and PBDEs in sediment samples ranged from 0.03 to 2.9(Mean${\pm}$SD, $1.2{\pm}0.89$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ dry weight(dw), ND(not detected) to 1.1($0.09{\pm}0.19$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ dw, and ND to 16.6($2.96{\pm}3.53$) ng $g^{-1}$ dw, respectively. Also, the levels of PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, and PBDEs in culturing organisms ranged from ND to 0.24($0.07{\pm}0.06$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ wet weight(ww), ND to 0.11($0.04{\pm}0.04$) pg $WHO_{2005}$-TEQ $g^{-1}$ ww, and 0.05 to 0.29($0.13{\pm}0.06$) ng $g^{-1}$ ww, respectively. The levels of total dioxins(PCDD/Fs+DLPCBs) and PBDEs in sediments from East and South sea were four to seven times higher than those from West sea. PCDD/Fs had dominant contribution(mean, 94%) for TEQ concentration in sediment, whereas relatively higher contribution of DLPCBs(33%) were shown in culturing organism than sediment. BDE209 was a dominant congener in both matrix. The concentrations of PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs and PBDEs were in decreasing trends in Korea coasts compared to previous results.

정래홍 ( Rae Hong Jung ),최민규 ( Min Kyu Choi ),윤상필 ( Sang Pil Yoon ),이원찬 ( Won Chan Lee ),최희구 ( Hee Gu Choi ) 한국수산과학회(구 한국수산학회) 2012 한국수산과학회지 Vol.45 No.1

Polychaete community structure and its spatial distribution was investigated in 2008 from inshore and offshore of Lake Shihwa, Korea, in order to evaluate status of the benthic environment according to construction of the dike and the water gate. In the present study, the number of species, density, and diversity of polychaete community in inshore was signifi- cantly different from those in offshore. The density of polychaete community in offshore increased with the number of species whereas the diversity in inshore increased with the number of species. Dominant species in offshore were 13 species, higher than 1% of the total polychaete individuals. Heteromastus filiformis, known as the most dominant species before the construction of the dike, was the most dominant species in offshore, which collectively account for 54% of the total polychaete individuals. In inshore, the seven species were dominant, higher than 1% of the total individuals. Lumbrineris longifolia, Polydora sp., Capitella capitata, Pseudopolydora paucibranchiata, known as pollution tolerant species, contributed to higher than 75% of the total individuals in inshore. Multivariate statistical analyses, non-metric multidimensional scaling, showed apparent difference in polychaete community structure between inshore and offshore, and also difference between inner sites and outer sites of inshore around the water gate. Sediment characteristics (total organic carbon and nitrogen, ignition loss, and acid volatile sulfide) measured in this study also supported to this result. Therefore, this indicates that the offshore provides better benthic environments for polychaete habitation than the inshore, and the inshore around the water gate shows improving benthic environment, compared to the inner inshore.

태안반도 갯벌 참굴( Crassostrea gigas ) 양식장 주변 퇴적물의 유기물 및 미량금속 분포

황동운 ( Dong Woon Hwang ),이인석 ( In Seok Lee ),최민규 ( Min Kyu Choi ),최희구 ( Hee Gu Choi ) 한국수산과학회 2014 한국수산과학회지 Vol.47 No.6

We measured the concentrations of various geochemical parameters [grain size, ignition loss (IL), chemical oxygen demand (COD), acid volatile sulfide (AVS), and trace metals (Fe, Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr, Mn, As, Zn, and Hg)] in the surface sediments of two intertidal oyster Crassostrea gigas farming areas (Iwon and Mongsan tidal flats) on the Taean Peninsula, Korea, to evaluate the pollution level of organic matter and trace metals in sediment. The intertidal sediments in the study region comprise mostly sand with a mean grain size of 2.5-3.5 Ø. The concentrations of IL, COD, AVS, and trace metals in the sediment of two study regions were either similar or lower in oyster farming areas relative to non-farming areas, apparently due to biological uptake or physical and biological sediment reworking. Based on the results for the pollution evaluation of organic matter and trace metals derived from sediment quality guidelines, enrichment factor, and geoaccumulation index, our results suggest that the sediment in these two intertidal oyster farming regions is not polluted by organic matter and trace metals.

퇴적물 오염기준을 이용한 금강 하구역 표층 퇴적물내 유기물 및 미량금속 오염 평가

황동운 ( Dong Woon Hwang ),이인석 ( In Seok Lee ),최민규 ( Min Kyu Choi ),김숙양 ( Sook Yang Kim ),최희구 ( Hee Gu Choi ) 한국수산과학회 2013 한국수산과학회지 Vol.46 No.6

We evaluated contamination with organic matter and trace metals by analyzing grain size, ignition loss (IL), chemical oxygen demand (COD), acid volatile sulfide (AVS), and trace metals (Al, Fe, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Ni, Cr, Mn, Hg, and As) in surface sediments at 28 stations around the Geum River estuary in July 2008. The surface sediments in the estuary were mainly composed of coarse sediment (sand and muddy sand), with mean grain size (Mz) ranging between 2-4 Ø. The high concentrations of IL, COD, and trace metals were mainly found at stations in front of the Gusan outer port and industrial complex, and near the Seocheon coast with relatively fine sediments. In addition, the concentrations of IL and all trace metals, except Pb and As, showed good positive correlations with Mz, indicating that the concentrations of organic matter and trace metals were mainly dependent on sediment grain size. The concentrations of COD, AVS, and trace metals in most sediments did not exceed the sediment quality guideline (SQGs). Although the sediments in the study region are not polluted with organic matter and trace metals, there are many point sources of pollutants, such as Gusan port and industrial complex, Janghang refinery, and a thermoelectric power plant around the Geum River estuary. Thus, the management of coastal environments through periodic monitoring of organic matter and trace metals is required in the future.

울산항 주변 표층 퇴적물내 유기물과 미량금속 분포 특성 및 오염 평가

황동운 ( Dong Woon Hwang ),이인석 ( In Seok Lee ),최민규 ( Min Kyu Choi ),최희구 ( Hee Gu Choi ) 한국환경분석학회 2014 환경분석과 독성보건 Vol.17 No.3

We measured the concentrations of various geochemical parameters (grain size, ignition loss [IL], chemicaloxygen demand [COD], acid volatile sulfide [AVS], total organic carbon [TOC], total nitrogen [TN] and tracemetals [Fe, Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr, Mn, As, Zn, and Hg]) in surface sediments in order to evaluate the pollution level of organic matter and trace metals in sediment around Ulsan Harbor. Although the mean grain sizes (Mz) were in the wide range of 1.9 to 8.7Ø, the surface sediments consist of mainly finer sediments such as sandy mud and mud. The high concentrations of IL, COD, Fe, Mn, and Cr were observed in the Ulsan outer port, while the high concentration of AVS, TOC, TN, and most of trace metals (Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Hg) were observed near the Jangsaengpo port. Based on the TOC/TN ratios, the organic matter in the sediments of the study region is likely to originate from oceanic source such as body or fragments of dead plankton. The organic matters such as IL and COD showed a good positive correlation with Mz, while the correlation between trace metals(except Fe, Cr, and Zn) and Mz no displays, indicating that trace metal concentrations in sediment are not solely dependent on the grain size of sediment. The overall evaluation results for organic matter and metalpollution using the sediment quality guidelines and geochemical assessment techniques (enrichment factor and geoaccumulation index) suggest that the surface sediments in the study regions are not polluted by organic matter and trace metals (except As).
