Abstract

본 연구는 만경강 유역의 수질 보전을 위한 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 만경강 본류와 이에 유입되는 지천을 선정하여 2001년 5월부터 11월까지 매월 수질 모니터링을 실시하였다. 만경강 유역내 본류 및 지천의 유기물과 영양염류 함량을 조사한 결과, 본류의 T-N은 3.78<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>12.68 mg/L였으며, 지천중 축산폐수가 유입되는 익산천의 농도가 가장 높았다. 본류의 T-P와 BOD는 각각 0.043<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>0.864 mg/L와 2.59<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>13.29 mg/L였으며, 지천중 익산천이 가장 높았다. 본류의 COD는 12.9<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>l19.5 mg/L였으며, 지천중 도시생활하수가 유입되는 추천이 가장 높았다. 만경강 유역 수질저하의 주 원인은 축산폐수였으며, 도시생활하수가 그 다음으로 중요한 원인으로 평가되었다. 만경강 본류의 T-N과 T-P는 하천의 유량이 증가하는 홍수기인 7<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>8월보다 장마전 갈수기인 5<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>6월에 높았고, COD는 장마전 갈수기보다 홍수기에 높았으며 장마가 완전히 끝난 영농후 갈수기인 9<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>11월에도 수질저하가 지속되었다. 만경강에 유입되는 지천중 전반적으로 수질오염이 심각한 익산천과 추천은 영농후 갈수기에 수질이 가장 저하되었고 상대적으로 홍수기에는 양호하였다. A survey on four tributaries along with Mankyeong River was carried out to get the information far the water quality improvement and control. Typical paddy farming were major agricultural practices in Kosancheon and Soyangcheon. Iksancheon was livestock raising watershed. Chucheon was urban watershed. Water quality in six sites of main stream and four sites of tributaries in Mankyeong River were investigated from May to August in 2001. The concentration of nutrient in main stream of Mankyeong River were in the range of 3.78<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>12.68 mg/L for total nitrogen, 0.043<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>0.864 mg/L for total phosphorus, 2.59<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>13.29 mg/L for BOD and 12.9<TEX>$\sim$</TEX>119.5 mg/L for COD, respectively. Water quality of Mankyeong River mostly exceeded the standard water quality criteria of Korea. Major causes of water pollution were evaluated as sewage of swine and urban area. Among the four tributaries, water quality in agricultural practices, Kosancheon and Soyangcheon was relatively less polluted. While, the highest level of water pollution measured in Iksancheon was due to livestock. The water quality of Iksancheon and Chucheon was generally more polluted in the dry period than in rainy period.
