수산오폐수는연안해역의주 요한오염원중하나이다(Park et al., 2013).
주로해안가에위 치한육상양식장으로부터배출되는사료찌꺼기와수산생물의 배설물도연안환경의오염에영향을미칠것으로예상되지만(Koh et al., 2013),
아직까지양식장의존재와그주변해역의 오염정도간의상관관계에관한연구는매우미미한실정이다.
이전연구는대부분대장균군,
분변계대장균및비브리오등을 검출하여연안해수의세균학적오염정도를분석하였으나양 식장의분포와연안해수의오염과의상관관계에대한연구는 많이이루어지지않았다
(Son et al., 2005; Moon et al., 2006;
Park et al., 2015).
양식장으로부터배출되는유기물질이주변 해역의오염에미치는영향과양식생물의감염성질병의발생과확산에미칠수있는영향에대한이해는향후역학적측면과 수질관리측면에서중요하다

We examined correlations of the density of fish farms with the distributions of indicator bacteria ( Escherichia coli , fecal streptococci ) and a bacterial fish pathogen ( Streptococcus parauberis ) off the coastline of Jeju Island. Seawater samples were collected at four coastal sites on the Island [Aewol (control), Gujwa, Pyoseon and Daejeong] in June, August and October 2016. The indicator bacteria were generally more frequently isolated from samples taken in Au- gust when water temperatures and human activities on nearby beaches were highest. Although fish farms were least common at Daejeong, the numbers of isolated fecal indicator bacteria were highest in the seawater and effluent water collected from this site. Hence, fish farms were not likely major contributors of indicator bacteria at Daejeong. We found discrepancies between the isolated bacterial counts and the predicted bacterial copy numbers deduced from our qPCR results, indicating that this pathogen may exist in a viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state in seawater. Thus, livestock wastewater and chemical fertilizer loading off Jeju Island may negatively impact seawater quality more than the effluent released from fish farms does.

를농축하기에는적합한방법이지만해수내에free liv- ing bacteria
까지농축을하는데있어서는한계가있는방법으 로알려져있다(Moeseneder et al., 2001).
이때문에본연구에 서제시하는결과가실제해수의세균농도를정확하게반영하 지않을수있다는단점이있지만제주지역의전체적인오염지 표세균의경향과농도,

일반적으로오염도를평가하는데있어서병원성미생물을개 별적으로검사하는것은기술적인한계가존재하기때문에병 원성미생물과공존가능성이높고검출이쉬우며구별이용이한 지표미생물을검사함으로써식품및환경의위생안전성을판 단한다

이번연구결과에서도출된오염지표세균의분포가제주도에 존재하는하수종말처리장의위치와의연관성이있는지분석하 고자하였다

그러나거의모든시설이해안에인접한지역에 비교적고르게분포하고있어단순히처리장의존재유무나그 수에의한차이에따른해수의오염도를추정하는것은적절하 지못하다고판단하였다(Fig. 1.).
또한각하수처리장마다일 일처리량이상이할수있으며인근의인구밀도와축산시설등 의오염원배출시설의밀집도등이오염정도를좌우할가능성 이크므로향후이에관한조사가이뤄져야할것으로사료된다.

자료를이용하여육상넙치양식장의수면 적을도출하고자하였다. Table 2

그럼에도불구하고8
월대정지역에서채취한 해수가다른지역에비해미생물학적오염이더심한것은양식 장의배출수가주오염원이아닐수있음을시사한다. Oh et al.

개의지하수의질산성질소를조사했 을때,
오염원이적은고산지대에서는그농도가아주낮은반면 에대정지역의농도는매우높음을확인할수있었다.
또한Oh et al. (2006)
은대정지역의오염원인이축산폐수,
화학비료그 리고사람의분뇨라고주장하였다.
이는2016
년제주특별자치 도보건환경연구원조사한결과(Jeju Specific Self-Governing Province Institute of Environment Research, 2016)
와도일치 한다.
그보고서에따르면농경지면적이넓고축산폐수배출시 설이많은제주서부지역의지하수에서전반적으로높은질산 성질소가검출되었다.
이번연구에서또다른오염지표종으로사용한분변계연쇄

총대장균군또한분변이외의여러가지요인에 의해유입될수있는특성때문에분변에의한해수의오염정도 를잘반영하지못할수있다고하였다.
그러나분변유래의연 쇄구균은해수에오래생존하는특성때문에해수의오염지표종으로적절할것이라하였다

.
특히수온의상승과인간여가활동의증가는분변계 대장균과분변계연쇄구균의증가와연관성이높음을확인할 수있었다.
그러나다른지역에비해밀집도가약3

그 러므로넙치양식장이매우많이분포해있는제주의연안해수오염은수산양식장보다는축산업에의한영향이유의적으로 크다는것을알수있다
