To understand the eutrophication and the harmful cyanobacterial water-bloom occurring in a new reservoir (Yeongju) located in the tributary (Naeseong Stream) of the Nakdong River, this study was investigated seasonally four times from 2010 to 2015 and seven times during June to July of 2017. The dam construction was completed in 2016 and filled with inflowing stream water. Prior to that, reservoir showed typical characteristics of a sandy stream, but thereafter the eutrophication accelerated, with an increase in the total nutrients concentration in the downstream near the dam. In summer, when the water temperature is high, the water-bloom was extreme in the surface layer, and chlorophyll-a concentration and standing crops of the harmful cyanobacteria exceed 100 mg m-3 and 4.0×105 cells mL-1, respectively. One of the reasons for this result was that the potential influence of phosphorus released from the clay and silt sediments contained in the sand bed on the stream was greater than that of the other reservoirs where the gravel fields predominated. Therefore, it was very important to evaluate the characteristics of bed materials and to select the type of dam discharge in the initial stage of impoundment. |
