초록

하천은 암석의 저항력, 구조 운동, 퇴적물, 유량 등에 의해 다양한 형태로 발전한다 본 연구는 이러한 요인 중에서도, 암석의 침식 저항력에 초점을 두었다. 상 하류간 기반암의 차이가 뚜렷한 어룡천, 흥정천, 두학천, 대화천, 남천천, 구룡천의 6개 하천을 대상으로, GIS를 이용하여, 유역분지 상 하류의 평면 및 종단면 특성을 분석하였다. 화강암 유역은 완만한 경사, 낮은 요형도, 넓은 하곡 면적을 이루며, 편마암 유역은 급한 경사, 높은 요형도, 좁은 하곡 면적을 나타내며, 퇴적암 유역은 본류 경사도와 기복량은 크지만, 나머지는 하천별로 차이가 있다. 여러 가지 형태적 특성 중 상 하류 암석간의 차이가 분명한 본류의 경사, 본류의 요형도, 하계밀도, 하곡의 면적비, 유역의 평균 경사, 유역의 평균 기복을 대상으로, 그 값을 지수화하여, 상 하류 암석의 침식 저항력을 판단하였다. 그 결과, 편마암으로 이루어진 하천의 상류는 침식에 대한 저항력이 높으며, 퇴적암은 상 하류에 관계없이 중간 정도의 저항력을 나타내고, 화강암은 퇴적암과 접한 상류의 경우를 제외하면, 대체로 침식 저항력이 낮다.

The streams evolve to diverse forms influenced by various factors such as rock resistance tectonic process, sediments and discharge. This study focuses on erosion resistance of rocks among these factors. The morphology of plane and longitudinal profile has been analysed in upper and lower reach of 6 streams using GIS; Yeoryong-cheon, Heungjeong-cheon, Duhak-cheon, Daehwa-cheon, Namcheon-cheon, Guryong-cheon, having distinct bedrock types between upper and lower reach. While the basins of granite have gentle slope, low concavity and wide valley area, those of gneiss form steep slope, high concavity and narrow valley area. However, the basins of sedimentary rock make steep slope and high relief in main channel, the other features show some differences in each stream. Among the various morphological features, the indices on slope and concavity of main channel, drainage density, ratio of valley area, average slope and average relief of the basin which have clear differences between rocks in upper and lower reach are calculated to interpret the erosion resistance of rocks in upper and lower reach. As a result, the upper reaches composed of gneiss have the highest erosion resistance, sedimentary rocks in upper and lower reaches show moderate resistance, and granite reaches generally have the lowest resistance except the upper reaches bordered by sedimentary rock.
