초록

본 연구는 우리나라에 분포하는 구하도의 유형을 구분하고 유형별 분포와 형상 특성을 분석하였다. 현재 우리나라에는 감입곡류 목 절단, 하천쟁탈, 분류, 감입곡류 하천의 인위적인 절단, 자유곡류 하도의 직강화, 분류 하도의 직강화에 의한 6가지 유형의 구하도가 총 409개 분포하고 있다. 이 가운데 266개로 가장 많은 감입곡류 목 절단 구하도는 고도가 높고 기복이 심하며 감입곡류 하천이 많은 강원과 경북에 많으며, 낙동강 본류의 상류, 남한강의 지류인 달천과 평창강 등에서 분포 빈도가 높다. 분류에 의한 구하도는 남한강 하류와 낙동강 하류의 본류, 자유곡류 하도의 직강화에 의한 구하도는 만경강과 영산강, 분류 하도의 직강화에 의한 구하도는 금호강에서 분포 빈도가 가장 높다. 감입곡류 목 절단과 하천쟁탈에 의한 구하도는 나머지 유형에 비해 해발고도와 하상비고가 매우 높아서, 농경지나 산림으로의 토지이용 비율이 상대적으로 높다.

The types, distributional and shape properties of abandoned channels in Korea are classified and examined. There are 409 abandoned channels in Korea and they can be classified into the 6 types such as the incised meander cutoff, stream piracy, distributary, artificial incised meander neck-cutoff, channel straightening of free meander and distributary streams. The abandoned channels by incised meander neck-cutoff showing the most frequency with 266, have the topographical properties of high altitude and steep relief and frequently distribute in Gangwon and Gyeonbuk Province and in the upper reaches of main stream of Nakdong-River, and Dal-River and Pyeongchang-River, tributaries of Namhan-River. The most frequency areas of abandoned channels by distributary, channel straightening of free meander and distributary streams are the lower reaches of Namhan-River and main stream in the lower reaches of Nakdong-River, Mangyeong-River and Yeongsan-River, and Geumho-River, respectively. The abandoned channles by incised meandering neck-cutoff and stream piracy are relatively used as farmlands or forests due to the high altitude and relative altitude from the river bed.
