Title: Study on Integrated Assessment of the River Environment Monitoring by Life-Cycle-Assessment (focusing on River Structure, Water Quality, Ecosystem)
Abstract: In this study, collectively to evaluate the environmental quality of river, It quantified that the comprehensive environmental quality of the construction facilities in river improvement project as well as the existing water ecosystem and the water quality monitoring by indicating the separated environmental quality assessment as a single index. In this study, the water ecosystem was indicated as a single index, a variety of water quality items were integrated into an eutrophication index and the selection of rawsubsidiary materials and construction work in the river improvement project were analyzed using LCA. The comprehensive environmental quality assessment, which was indicated by a single index, was allowed to be used in the analysis of potential environmental impact besides aspects of landscape ecology. Hence, a new monitoring assesment method of environmental quality was applied to this study through case study. In addition, the construction work and maintenance of river facilities, the water quality and the water ecosystem analyzed for the 30years of limited time of model basin. The present study suggest that the changed environmental quality of river after river improvement project can be readily understood by indicating the separated monitoring items as a single index. The results of this study are expected to be effectively utilized for the nature-friendly design of close-to-nature river and the selection of rawsubsidiary materials in river improvement project.
