하천 유사량은 유량과 마찬가지로 충적 하천의 기본적인 자료로서 하상변동 예측, 저수지 퇴사량 추정, 유사 유출량 추정, 하도 계획과 설계, 유사조절 계획 수립 등에 다목적으로 활용된다. 선진 외국의 경우는 유사량관측망을 구축하여 일찍이 유역관리 및 하천관리, 하천시설물관리 및 댐 관리 등을 위한 자료를 생산하고 있으나, 국내의 경우는 유사량 측정 기반 및 실측된 유사량 자료가 부족한 관계로 단순한 가정이나 경험식에 의한 추정치들의 활용 빈도가 높다. 본 연구에서는 국내 특성에 맞는 관측망을 구축하기 위해서 국내외 관측망 구축 사례 등을 조사 분석하였으며, 이를 토대로 유사량관측망 구축 방법을 개념화하였다. 개념화된 유사량 관측망 구축방법은 유역관리, 하천관리, 하천시설물 관리, 댐 관리 측면을 포괄하는 방법으로 관련계획 및 설계기준 검토, 유사량조사 현황 검토, 설계대상 수위관측소 선정, 현장조사 등의 과정을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 관측망 구축대상 지점을 국가수위관측망(643개소)로 하였으며, 이를 통해 총 138개소의 유사량관측망을 목적별로 구축하였다. 권역별로는 한강권역 44개소, 낙동강 권역 37개소, 금강 권역 33개소, 섬진강 권역 12개소, 영산강 권역 12개소로 구축되었다.

Acritical function of a nation is to protect its people's lives and properties from natural disasters such as a drought. A drought affects many aspects of human life, including social, economic, and industrial activities. Approximately 75.7% of reservoirs in Korea are over 50 years old.Sedimentation over the years may have caused a situation where storage capacity of the reservoirs is no longer sufficient and compliant with the original reservoir specifications. This study analyzes storage capacities for ten aged reservoirs using the autonomous navigation USV. It compares these capacities with sediment estimated by conventional empirical equations. Comparisons were made to the original specifications for the reservoirs.Storage capacity of six reservoirs decreased in a range between 16.2%-55.3% and storage capacity of 4 reservoirs increased in a range between 1.5%-380.2%. This data was compared to data derived from estimating sediment by empirical equations. Yoon's equation(1982) appeared more accurate than Sur's equation(1988) in Uhlinzi and Yongpo reservoirs, and Sur's equation(1988), however, appeared more accurate than Yoon's equation in Daegok, Ugok2 and Ochi reservoirs. The significant ranges of sedimentation shown in this study suggest that it is worth continuously surveying reservoirs to ensure their efficient management and operation.

A method to estimate hourly temperature profiles on calm and clear nights was developed based on temporal changes of inversion height and strength. A meteorological temperature profiler (Model MTP5H, Kipp and Zonen) was installed on the rooftop of the Highland Agriculture Research Institute, located in Daegwallyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do. The hourly vertical distribution of air temperature was measured up to 600 m at intervals of 50 m from May 2007 to March 2008. Temperature and relative humidity data loggers (HOBO U23 Pro v2, Onset Computer Corporation, USA) were installed in the Jungdae-ri Valley, located between Gurye-gun, Jeollanam-do and Gwangyang-si, Jeollanam-do. These loggers were used to archive measurements of weather data 1.5 m above the surface from October 3, 2014, to November 23, 2015. The inversion strength was determined using the difference between the temperature at the inversion height, which is the highest temperature in the profile, and the temperature at 100 m from the surface. Empirical equations for the changes of inversion height and strength were derived to express the development of temperature inversion on calm and clear nights. To estimate air temperature near the ground on a slope exposed to crops, the equation's parameters were modified using temperature distribution of the mountain slope obtained from the data loggers. Estimated hourly temperatures using the method were compared with observed temperatures at 19 weather sites located within three watersheds in the southern Jiri-mountain in 2015. The mean error (ME) and root mean square error (RMSE) of the hourly temperatures were $-0.69^{\circ}C$ and $1.61^{\circ}C$, respectively. Hourly temperatures were often underestimated from 2000 to 0100 LST the next day. When temperatures were estimated at 0600 LST using the existing model, ME and RMSE were $-0.86^{\circ}C$ and $1.72^{\circ}C$, respectively. The method proposed in this study resulted in a smaller error, e.g., ME of $-0.12^{\circ}C$ and RMSE of $1.34^{\circ}C$. The method could be improved further taking into account various weather conditions, which could reduce the estimation error.

In case of continuous input of a pollutant, dispersion characteristics do not change much with changing dispersion coefficient, but that of an instantaneous input is very sensitive to the changes of dispersion coefficient. The characteristics of behavior of instantaneous input of a pollutant at the downstream of Han river were analyzed in this paper Field measurement of hydraulic and water quality factors at the downstream of Han river were conducted at low flow condition. The hydraulic factors were used to estimate the longitudinal dispersion coefficient, and the reasonable empirical equations for longitudinal dispersion coefficient at the downstream of Han river were suggested. The measured concentrations of BOD were closely matched with the calculated ones from RMA-4 model. In case of instantaneous input, range of dispersion, transport pathway and the traveltimes of the first and maximum concentration with variation of the longitudinal dispersion coefficients and water levels of downstream boundary were evaluated in this paper.

유역 모형은 강우가 유출에 이르는 과정을 수문학적으로 재현해낼 수 있는 도구이다. 초기의 모형은 간단한 수준에서 유출과정을 모의하는데 그쳤으나, 기술이 발전함에 따라 유역 모형에 적용되는 매개변수의 수가 점차 늘어나게 되며 이론적 신뢰성과 복잡성을 동시에 갖게 되었다. 유역 모형은 집중형 모형과 분포형 모형으로 대별할 수 있는데, 기존에는 저류 함수법을 근간으로 하는 개념 기반의 HEC-HMS HEC-RAS 등과 같은 집중형 모형을 널리 사용한 반면, 점차 격자 기반에서 물리적 계산을 통해 유출 과정을 모의할 수 있는 GSSHA, Vflo, SWAT과 같은 분포형 모형의 활용이 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 집중형 모형은 관측자료를 통해 산정된 경험식에 의존하고 있는 반면, 분포형 모형의 경우 각 격자가 가지고 있는 시·공간적 매개변수를 통해 물리적으로 유출과정을 계산하여 신뢰성을 확보하기에 유리하며, 미계측 유역에서도 활용이 가능하다. 지하수는 유역 모형의 댜양한 매개변수들 중 지표면 유출량에 밀접한 영향을 미치는 인자이다. 그럼에도 아직까지 경험식에 의존한 집중형 모형이 주를 이루고 있는 국내에서는 분포형 모형에 적용가능한 매개변수 최적화에 대한 연구는 미진한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 분포형 유역 모형의 침투모의 과정에 관여하는 공간 매개변수 중 밀접한 연관을 띠고 있는 대수층 깊이에 대하여 분석하였다. 여러 공간매개변수 중 침투능과 관계가 깊은 대수층 깊이에 대해 가장 적합한 매개변수 값을 도출해 내는 것이 본 연구의 최종 목적이라고 할 수 있으며, 분석은 국내 자연하천 유역을 대상으로 분포형 유역 모형에 일반적인 수준으로 적용할수 있는 범위를 검토하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 분포형 유역 모형에서 하나의 매개변수인 대수층 깊이의 정량화에 기여되기를 바란다.

This study was conducted to develop economic injury level (EIL) of onion thrips, Thrips tabaci, on welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L. var) in the early transplanting stage. The changes of welsh onion biomass, yield loss, and T. tabaci density were investigated according to the inoculation periods of T. tabaci. In the early transplanting stage of welsh onion, the yield loss (%) increased with increasing inoculation periods: 17.0, 53.3, 38.4, and 80.8% yield loss in 5, 10, 15, and 20 d inoculation periods, respectively. The relationship between Cumulative Insect Days (CID) of T. tabaci and yield loss (%) of welsh onion was well described by a nonlinear logistic equation. Using the estimated equation, EIL of T. tabaci on welsh onion was estimated to 30 CID per plant based on the yield loss 12% (an empirical gain threshold 5% + marketable rate 93% of welsh onion). ET was calculated to 24 CID, which corresponds to 80% of EIL. Until a more defined EIL-model is developed, the present results should be useful for T. tabaci management in early growth stage of welsh onion. The effect of T. tabaci attack on the yield of welsh onion in late growing season (120 days after transplanting) was also examined. The yield of welsh onion increased at a low population density of T. tabaci and decreased at higher densities, showing a typical over-compensatory response.

In this study, as a method for decreasing the confidence interval of the estimates of Clark hydrograph's concentration time and storage coefficient, regression equations of these parameters with respect to those of rainfall, meteorology, and basin characteristics are derived and analyzed using the Monte Carlo simulation technique. The results are also reviewed by comparing them with those derived by applying the Bootstrap technique and empirical equations. Results derived from this research are summarized as follows. (1) Even in case of limited rainfall events are available, it is possible to estimate the mean runoff characteristics by considering the affecting factors to runoff characteristics. (2) It is also possible to use the Monte Carlo simulation technique for estimating and evaluating the confidence intervals for concentration time and storage coefficient. The confidence intervals estimated in this study were found much narrower than those of Yoo et al. (2006). (3) A supporting result could also be derived using the Bootstrap technique. However, at least 20 independent rainfall events are necessary to get a rather significant result for concentration time and storage coefficient. (4) No empirical equations are found to be properly applicable for the study basin. However, empirical equations like the Kraven(I) and Kraven(II) are found valid for the estimation of concentration time, on the other hand the Linsley is found valid for the storage coefficient In this study basin. But users of these empirical formula should be careful as these also provide a wide range of possible values.

A core zone of a fill dam is an important part of a dam for cutoff of water. Therefore, the material properties and behavior characteristics of a core zone are very important factors in an analysis of dam stability. However, the investigation on material properties of actual dam core is extremely rare so far. The material properties have been acquired or estimated by indirect methods like a surface wave surveying or empirical equation. In this research, in-situ and laboratory tests were conducted during dismantling an existing dam directly to investigate characteristics of the core zone in terms of the depth and transient variation of properties after construction of the dam. Dynamic material properties like shear wave velocity and shear modulus were measured and compared to other existing empirical correlations. In addition, aging characteristics of dynamic material properties were investigated by a series of laboratory tests.

Traffic load comprise primary input to pavement design causing pavement damage. therefore it should be proceeded suitable traffic load distribution modeling for pavement design and analysis. Traffic load have been represented by equivalent single axle loads (ESALs) which convert mixed traffic stream into one value for design purposes. But there are some limit to apply ESALs to other roads because it is empirical value developed as part of the original AASHO(American Association of State Highway Officials) road test. There have been many efforts to solve these problems. Several leading country have implemented M-E(Mechanistic-Empirical) design procedures based on mechanical concept. As a result, they established traffic load quantification method using load distribution model known as Axle Load Spectra. This paper details Axle Load Spectra and presents axle load distribution model based on normal mixture distribution function using truck load data collected by WIM system installed in national highway. Axle load spectra and axle load distribution model presented in this paper could be useful for basic data when making traffic load quantification plan for pavement design, overweight vehicle permit plan and pavement maintenance cost plan.

In this study, the in situ deformation moduli, which were measured by borehole loading tests at basaltic rock masses located in the northeastern onshore and offshore and the northwestern onshore of Jeju Island, were examined in relation to RQD and RMR. The measured deformation moduli were also compared with the estimated deformation moduli from conventional empirical formulas using RQD and RMR. In addition, the measured deformation moduli were analyzed with respect to both the velocity ratio ($V_P/V_S$) and dynamic Poisson's ratio, which were obtained from the elastic wave velocities measured by velocity logging tests. As results, with only RQD, it was inappropriate to evaluate the quality of the Jeju island basaltic rock masses, which are characterized by vesicular structures, to select a measurement method of in situ deformation moduli, and to estimate the deformation moduli. On the other hand, it was desirable to evaluate the quality of the Jeju Island basaltic rock masses, and to estimate the deformation moduli by using RMR. The conventional empirical formulas using RMR overestimated the deformation moduli of the Jeju Island basaltic rock masses. There was qualitative consistency in the relation between velocity ratio and deformation moduli. To estimate appropriately the deformation moduli of the Jeju Island basaltic rock masses, empirical formulas were proposed as the function of RMR and velocity ratio, respectively.
