Abstract

It is important to extract and assess low-flow recession characteristics for water resources management in the upper reaches of a stream. It is difficult to express the groundwater flow recession characteristics for streamflow synthetically. The linear recession model has been widely used by baseflow recession analysis for reason of simplicity and convenience, but recent studies show that nonlinear recession models fit well, and the relationship between the reservoir storage of shallow unconfined aquifers and the groundwater discharge was to be identified as nonlinear in the literature based on the analysis of numerous streamflow recession curves. The objective of the study is to decode these nonlinear characteristics, including evaporation loss, storage, and recharge of groundwater using streamflow. By analyzing the observed time series of streamflow from the study area, which is the Pyeongchang River basin in Korea, the main components of the underlying groundwater balance, namely, discharge, evaporation loss, storage, and recharge, can be identified and quantified. As a result of the study, depletion of groundwater by evapotranspiration losses through the water uptake of tree roots was found to bias the recession curves and the estimated reservoir parameters. The seasonality of both rainfall and potential evaporation, analysis of the recession curves, stratified according to time of the year, allowed the quantification of evapotranspiration loss as a function of a calendar month and stored groundwater storage.

수자원의 보전과 관리를 위해서는 갈수시의 유량감쇄 특성을 파악하는 것이 중요한 과제 중에 하나이다. 감쇄특성을 하천 유량자료를 이용하여 표현하기 위해서 여러 복잡한 특성을 고려하여야 하므로, 편의성을 위하여 선형 감쇄분석이 주로 적용되어 왔다. 그러나, 최근의 연구에서 제시된 지하수 유출과 비피압대수층의 저장능력의 비선형성을 고려하면, 비선형 감쇄모형의 적용성이 더 높다고 할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 유출자료를 이용하여 지하수의 증발손실, 저류 및 재함양과 같은 비선형 특성을 고찰하는 데 있다. 한강의 상류인 평창강 유역의 유출자료를 이용하여 분석을 수행하였으며, 지하수 수지를 구성하는 주요한 요소인 지하수 유출, 증발손실, 저류, 재함양에 대해서 고찰하고 정량화하였다. 연구결과에 따라서, 식생에 의한 지하수 손실이 감쇄곡선을 편향시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 계절적 강우와 잠재증발산 경향을 감쇄분석에 적용하여 월별 증발산 손실과 지하수 함양량을 정량화하여 제시하였다.
