남해포 갯벌은 반폐쇄적인 만형 갯벌로 퇴적지형은 단조로운 사질 위주의 퇴적상과 조위에 따른 군집분포 특성을 가지고 있는 비교적 자연성을 유지하고 있는 지역이다. 갯벌어장의 노출시간은 상부에서 380분-430분, 중부에서 390분-450분, 하부에서 290분-340분으로 동일 지점에서는 주간에 비해 야간 노출시간이 50분-1시간이 더 길었고, 정점별로는 St. 1과 St. 2는 10분-20분의 차이밖에 없었으나, St. 3은 St. 1과 St. 2에 비해 노출시간이 각각 90분, 100분-110분이 더 적게 나타났다. 갯벌어장의 영양염류는 아질산성 질소, 인산인의 변동이 적고 강우량이 많았던 7월에 비하여 8월에 암모니아성 질소와 질산성 질소의 변동이 나타나고, 저질에서 COD는 3개 정점에서 양식장 오염니 기준을 초과하지 않았으나, AVS는 3개 정점 모두에서 기준을 초과하였다. 저질의 입도는 니질사 또는 사질로 분급이 양호하여 바지락이 서식하기에는 적절하지 않았으며, 동죽과 백합이 적절한 것으로 나타났다. 갯벌어장 표층퇴적물의 COD, AVS, IL의 지화학적특성은 다소 오염된 지역이 나타나지만 패류의 성장에 영향이 적은 것으로 생각된다. C/N 비는 St. 1, St. 2에서 10이상의 값을 나타내어 외부에 의한 오염이 진행된 것으로 조사 되었으며 C/S 비는 조사정점 세 지역에서 2.8 이하로 정상적인 해양환경으로 조사 되었다. 중금속에 대한 농축비 (Ef) 는 조사정점에서 1 보다 크게 나타나 대기나 하천을 통하여 유입되어 중금속이 퇴적물에 농축되어 있음을 의미한다. 또한 농집지수 (Igeo) 의 결과는 연구지역이 Igeo class가 1에 집중되어 있어 약간 오염되었거나 오염되지 않은 수준으로 나타났지만 Cd, AS, Hg는 Igeo class가 2로 오염되어 있는 수준으로 나타났다. 갯벌 미세조류의 정규식생지수는 월 평균 0.06이었으며, 엽록소 a 농도는 월 평균
To assess the effect of environmental factors on the sustainability of cultured production shellfish, we investigated the habitat characteristics of tidal flat (Namhae-po in Taean). We measured the physiochemical parameters (temperature, salanity, pH, dissolved oxygen and nutrients) and the geochemical characteristics (chemical oxygen demand, ignition loss, C/N ratio and C/S ratio). Surface sediments were collected from several site of tidal flat to examine the geochemical characteristics of both the benthic environment and heavy metal pollution. The grain size for research area of tidal flat were similar at the ratio of silt and clay in comparison with the other site of it. The C/N ratio was more than 5.0, reflecting the range arising from the mix of marine organism and organic matter. The C/S ratio (about 2.8) showed that survey area had anoxic or sub-anoxic bottom conditions. The enrichment factor (Ef) and index of accumulation rate (Igeo) of the metals showed that those research areas can be classified as heavily polluted, heavily to moderately polluted, or more or less unpolluted, respectively. Adult surf clam (Mactra veneriformis) density was highest at St. 2 (middle part of the Namhae-po), on the other hand, surf clam spat density was highest at St. 3 (lower part of the Namhae-po). Heavy rain, terrigenous suspended clay with fresh water from neighboring agricultural land, and severe high air temperature during summer could be thought as detrimental causes of spat and adult mortality in Namhae-po tidal flat. We suggested that the growth of shellfish in the tidal flat was effected by the various environmental conditions, so an improvement in the cultured method was needed.
