Abstract

For the systematic scientific management in Cheonsu Bay of Korea, this study was conducedt to survey the particle composition, organic matter(I.L.) and heavy metals in farming and non-farming areas. The sediment of study area showed feature mixed property by sand, silt and clay. The farming area showed superior by fine-grained sediment, non-farming area showed superior by coarse-grained sediment. The organic pollution of farming area were appeared to be heavily polluted more than non-farming area. The concentration of total nitorgen in sediment was higher farming area than non-farming area. Also, in the case of heavy metals pollution in sediments, farming area was higher than non-farming area. The correlation analysis among to heavy metals, organic matter and particle size was found to have a good interrelationship. For evaluation of heavy metals pollution of sediments, three criteria are applied, Enrichment Factor(EF), Geoaccumulation index(Igeo) and NOAA criteria for sediment. In the case of EF, Heavy metals pollution was appeared to artificial effect all heavy metals if except Cu. In the case of Geoaccumulation index, Cu, Al, Pb was shown zero grade, that is non polluted group, and Cd, Hg, Cr was shown to 0~1 grade, that is mid polluted group, As was shown to 2 grade, that is moderately polluted group. In the case of NOAA, pollution levels of heavy metals except Cd belonged to a group of ERL(Effect range low)~ERM(Effect range median).

천수만 내 어장해역과 비어장해역의 해저퇴적물에 대한 지화학적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 입도 및 유기물오염의 특성과 중금속 오염도를 평가하였다. 천수만 퇴적물은 Sand, Silt, Clay가 혼재된 퇴적 특성을 나타내었으며, 어장해역인 만내에는 세립질이 우세하고, 비어장해역인 만외는 조립질이 우세한 것으로 나타났다. 퇴적물의 유기물(COD, TOC, I.L.) 오염정도는 양식어장해역이 비양식어장해역보다 유기물 오염도가 더 심한 것으로 나타났으며, 퇴적물 총질소 농도도 양식어장이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 퇴적물중의 중금속 함량을 양식어장인 내측과 비양식어장인 외측과 비교해 보면, 모든 항목에서 양식어장에서 높은 평균농도를 나타내고 있었다. 퇴적물의 입도와 이화학적 성분, 중금속과의 상관성에서 평균입도, Sand, Clay는 유기물 인자와 높은 상관성을 보였고, 유기물 지표와 중금속간의 상관성도 대체적으로 높게 나타났다. 중금속 오염도의 평가에서 농축계수는 Cu를 제외한 모든 중금속 항목에서 1 이상의 값을 보여 인위적인 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났고, 중금속 과잉량은 Cd와 Cr이 0에 가까운 값을 보였으나, 나머지 항목은 높은 값을 나타내어 중금속 과잉량이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 농집지수에 의한 평가에서는 Cu, Pb, Al은 0등급의 오염되지 않은 수준이었고, Hg, Cr은 10개 이내의 자료에서 0~1등급 이상이었고, 나머지는 0등급이었다. 그리고 Cd은 18개 자료에서 0~1등급 이상을 나타내었고, As의 경우 모든 자료에서 0~1등급 이상이었다. 미국해양대기청(NOAA) 퇴적물 기준과 비교하면 모든 중금속 항목에서 ERL 이하의 오염수준을 보였고, 한국환경정책평가연구원 퇴적물 기준과 비교에서도 목표수준 이하의 농도를 나타내었다.
