Abstract

Tidal variations of various chemical constituents in the laver bed sea waters in Wan Do Gun were determined over one spring tidal cycle from Oct. 1968 to Feb. 1969. Total ranges and means of the contents at Pyung-il Do and Wan Do are as follows. Although the average monthly variations of each content at Pyung-il Do were similar to those at Wan Do, most of the contents at Pyung-il Do were at a slightly higher level than at Wan Do. The values of silicate-silicon, phosphate- phosphorus and soluble iron, however, showed high levels at Wan Do. Chlorinity, magnesium, calcium, dissolved oxygen, silicate-silicon and phosphate-phosphorus contents increased from Oct. 1968 to Feb. 1969, though the content of soluble iron decreased before December and slightly increased in January and February. The average monthly variations of ammonia-nitrogen and nitrate-nitrogen contents were irregular. The nitrite-nitrogen content appeared in trace amounts in the months with a comparatively high water temperature, i.e., October and November, but in midwinter it was undetected. The ranges of the tidal variations of the contents of each chemical constituent were not significantly wide, though the contents varied excessively by the hour, and this may show the irregularity of the water quality in Wan Do Gun coastal area. As a rule, no regular tidal variation of the chlorinity was observed except slightly decreased value at ebb tide at Wan Do. In general, although the pattern of the variations of calcium and magnesium contents were similar to that of the chlorinity, no definite relationships between these constituents and chlorinity were observed. Tidal variations of the dissolved oxygen content, nutrient salts and soluble iron were irregular.

김의 성장과 품질에 대한 환경수질의 중요성은 다시 말할 필요가 없다 김 양식기에 있어서의 환경수질의 변동을 보기 위해 저자의 한 사람은 섬진강 및 낙동강 하구 김밭에 대해 이미 조사한 바 있거니와 이번에는 우리나라 유수의 김 생산지인 완도군하 김밭의 수질을 전보와 같은 방법으로 조사하였다. 조사지점으로서는 완도군 에서대체로 대표적 김밭이라 볼 수 있는 두 지점을 선정하여 1968년 10월부터 1969년 2월까지 매월 대조일에서의 수질변동을 조수의 일조기에 걸쳐 1시간마다 각 성분량을 측정하므로써 조사하였다.
