국내 농업용 저수지의 영양상태 및 생태 건강성 평가 = Trophic State of Agricultural Reservoirs in Korea and The Ecosystem Health Assessments

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The objectives of this study were to determine trophic sate of agricultural reservoirs within the four major watersheds and evaluate the ecosystem health using the multi- metric fish modeling approach of Lentic Ecosystem Health Assessments (LEHAs). Agricultural reservoirs, based on Trophic State Index (TSI) ranged from mesotrophic to hypertrophic depending on the intensity of Asian monsoon. Regression analysis of N:P ratios showed a negative linear function (R2 = 0.698, p < 0.0001) with TP values, but not with TN (p = 0.939). The plots of TSI (CHL) - TSI (TP) and TSI (CHL) - TSI (SD) suggest that other factors other than phosphorus limited algal biomass (CHL - TP < 0), and that non-algal particles dominated light attenuation (CHL - SD < 0). Regression model of fish trophic component against TP showed that the proportion of omnivore (OM) and insectivore fish (IS) had a positive (R2 = 0.679, p < 0.01) and negative linear function (R2 = 0.403, p < 0.05) with TP, respectively. Values of multi-metric LEHAs model averaged 26 6.5, indicating a Fair conditions. Overall, the ecosystem health was directly influenced by organic matter pollution and high algal production.
