This study analyzes the effects of the Smart Water City (SWC) project that was introduced from 2014 to 2016 in Paju City, Gyeonggi Province, Korea, focusing on the achievement of the business goals. The SWC is referred to as a city that embraces a healthy water supply system based on Smart Water Management (SWM) that promotes the efficiency of water management by combining Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) with water and sewerage facilities. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the SWC project, this study deploys evaluation criteria corresponding to the project objectives, and analyzes the outputs before and after the project. The results show that the SWC has contributed to enhancing water supply services and the reliability and drinking rate of tap water. Specific improvement areas include the rise of average water flow rate and water leakage reduction, the diffusion of water quality monitoring system, and the reduction of floating particle concentration and turbidity in drainage pipes was achieved. These were possible because of specific implementation plans for clear goal setting and achievement and active services for citizens. The data related to water quantity and quality showed improved performance compared to before the introduction of SWMS, which is a positive effect. However, a quantitative analysis of the outputs has limitations in identifying other external factors that have led to the changes. In the future, guidelines for spreading SWC and more comprehensive and specific evaluation indicators for SWC should be prepared, and SWMS should be developed in consideration of the needs of users.

The quality of tap water on the whole water-supply system, from a large filtration plant to a private faucet, has to be guaranteed the standards of drinking water. At this point in time, however, the supply process of the tap water has not been monitored and managed scientifically. The piped water, especially the most small-scale reservoirs(underground or overhead type) are always exposed to various contaminations and impurities. Recently monitoring systems of water-quality were spread on some large filtration plants or distributing reservoirs. In particular, the water quality monitoring method using the internet is adopted into some local government whose inhabitants can check up the water quality anytime and anywhere. The construction of this system that has to apply a large scale needs, and has a limitation on the small water-supply system, such as apartments, public facilities and small-scale underground or overhead reservoirs. In this work, we suggest the integration system of individual water-quality sensor modules that have a low price. By using the developed integration system and online monitoring program operated on the internet, the system managers of reservoirs can monitor and manage water-quality characteristic values of drinking water in online. Since the proposed system was modularized, the system can be applied easily into various reservoirs with a low cost and regardless of its scale, small or large.

To obtain the informations on the checking factors of the effecient utilization of paddies in chungnam province and study on the effecient working system and high productive cropping system in paddies, the utilization state of paddies including environmental conditions were investigated at sample 1,500 farms. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The difficulty of drainage in paddies was the most important factor checking the utility of paddies. Delayed transplanting of rice and lack of labour were also important checking factors on the efficient utilization of paddies. 2. The utilization of paddies was rather effecient at small size farms of which farmers were almost poor, and most of them cultivated barley for their own food. 3. Considering climatic conditions, pre-crops of rice must be harvested before June 10 tho and the marginal transplanting date of rice plant is June 25 th. 4. In case of planting barley as a post-crop after rice, the spread seeding by rotary before plowing was most efficient with lowest cost. 5. Considering rice cultivation, yield of barley and net income, the most efficient cropping system was "Josaengtongil + Olbori".

Water quality of Oseepchun, Dogye area, was investigated quantitatively for its origin and hydrogeochemistry in relation to the influence of groundwater. Groundwater appears to be the principal source of Oseepchun from the water-quality monitoring data including redox potentials, composition of dissolved ions and their correlations, hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopic ratios, and the distribution and occurrence of contaminants. Water-quality type of the surface water was grouped by the water-rock interactions as $Ca-HCO_3$ type originated from carbonated bed-rocks in the Joseon Supergroup, (Ca, Mg)-$SO_4$ type related with dissolution of surfide minerals in coal beds of Pyeongan Supergroup, and (Ca, Mg)-($HCO_3$, $SO_4$) type of the mixed one. Locally water pollution occurs by high $SO_4$ from mine drainage and $NO_3$ from waste-treatment facility. Intensive precipitation in summer has no effect on the water type of Oseepchun, but increases the inflow of nitrate and chloride originated from land surface. Results of this study direct that groundwater-surface water interaction is intimate, and thus surface-water resource management should begin with groundwater characterization.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of oxadiazon, molinate, thiobencarb before seeding on control of red rice and barnyardgrass in water-seeded rice. High application rate plot among oxadiazon treatment plots could observe phytotoxicity symptoms depending on field conditions, but these injury recovered gradually with time. Molinate and thiobencarb application plots at the concentration of 225~400, 210~420g ai/l0a respectively were not observed phytotoxicity. Control of red rice was different according to kinds of herbicides and application rates. Oxadiazon showed higher control performance at the concentration of more than 60g ai/10a. Control effect of molinate and thiobencarb against red rice was enhanced with the increase of application rate, and both herbicides showed satisfactory effect at more than 300g ai/10a. Control of barnyardgrass showed up to 90~100% in all tested herbicides. There was no significant yield reduction by oxadiazon, molinate, and thiobencarb application before seeding in all tested field. In the pot experiment, crop injury, seedling stand, and early growth were more advantageous at time of drainge after one day after seeding than flooding until rooting.

This research aims 1) to analyse the spatial occurrence of red soils, in Korea 2) to predict their spatial distribution using terrain analyses, and 3) to interpret results from the perspective of pedogeomorphological processes. Red soils (often called red-yellow soils) in Korea are frequently found on welldrained plains and gently sloping areas. These soils are widely believed paleo-soils that were formed under hot and humid climatic conditions in the past. The spatial distribution of red soils was derived from the soil map of Korea, and a DEM based soil prediction was developed, based on a continuity equation to depict water and material flows over the landscape. About 64.5% of the red soil occurrence can be explained by the prediction. Close examinations between surveyed and predicted red soil maps show few distinctive spatial features. Granitic erosional plains at the inland of Korea show comparatively low occurrence of red soils, which might indicate active geomorphological processes within the basins. The occurrence of red soils at limestone areas is more abundant than that of the predicted, indicating the influence of parent materials on the formation of red soils. At and around lava plateau at Cheulwon and Youncheon, the occurrence of red soils is underestimated, which might partly be explained by the existence of loess-like surface deposits. There are also distinctive difference of prediction results between northern and southern parts of Korea (divided by a line between Seosan and Pohang). The results of this research calls for more detailed field-based investigations to understand forming processes of red soils, focusing on the spatial heterogeneity of pedological processes, the influence of parent materials, and difference in uplift patterns of the Korean peninsula.

가뭄이 '심함' 단계 이상 도달 시에는 매주 수문분석을 수행하여 가뭄전망을 수행하여야 한다. 이를 위해서는 기상청의 강수량과 기온 등의 기상예측 자료가 필요하다. 현재 기상청에서는 3개월 기상전망으로 월단위 강수량과 평균기온을 매월 제공하고 있다. 1개월 전망에서 4주의 강수량합과 평균기온을 제공하고 있다. 하지만, 향후 4주간을 전망하는 1개월 전망에서는 1주단위의 강수량과 평균기온이 아닌, 4주간의 강수량합과 평균기온을 1주일 단위로 업데이트해 WINS에 제공하고 있다. 1주단위의 강수량과 평균기온을 취득하기 어려워, 평년 일단위 강수량과 평균기온 자료를 사용하여 4주간의 자료를 1주 단위로 분할하는 방법을 사용하였다. 주간단위 수문자료의 처리를 위해 국제표준기구(ISO)에서 제시하는 기준(ISO 8601)에 따랐다. ISO 8601은 월요일부터 일요일까지를 1주로 정의하며 현재 사용하고 있는 날짜체계와 1대1로 대응되도록 하였다. 예를 들면 1981년 2월 22일은 '1981-W07-7' 또는 '1981W077'로 표시한다. 표시된 형식은 1981년 7번째 주 일요일을 뜻한다. 이 기준에 따라 수문자료를 정리할 수 있도록 프로그램을 개발하였다. 주간 단위 잠재증발산량 계산은 월잠재증발산량 프로그램을 1주단위로 계산할 수 있도록 수정 및 보완하여 개발하였다. 수정 및 보완한 부분은 외기복사(外氣輻射)량 계산부분이다. 외기복사량은 지구가 태양을 1년 주기로 공전하므로 특정 위도에서 특정날짜에 따라 복사량이 달라지므로 주간단위의 월요일부터 일요일에 해당하는 날짜의 외기복사량을 각각 계산하고 이를 평균하여 주간단위 대푯값으로 사용하도록 하였다. 계산된 주간단위 외기복사량과 최고 최저기온을 입력하여 Hargreaves식에 의해 잠재증발산량을 계산한다. 융적설을 포함한 주단위 강우-유출 모형의 매개변수를 추정하기 위해 전국 24개 지점의 수문자료를 사용하였다. abcd 모형과 융적설모듈의 초기값 포함 11개 매개변수를 SCE-UA 전역최적화 알고리즘으로 추정하였다. 추정된 유역의 매개변수는 토양배수, 토양심도, 수문지질, 유역특성인자를 사용한 군집분석 결과에 의해 113개 중권역에 할당하였다. 개발된 주간단위 강우-유출 모형은 비교적 단기 가뭄전망을 위해 사용된다. 계산된 유량은 자연유량이며, 전국 취수장 수량, 하수처리장 방류수, 회귀수를 반영하여 지점별 유량을 계산하여 가뭄전망에 사용되고 있다.

도심지에서의 침수피해는 이상홍수 및 국지성 호우 시 우수관거 시설기준 미달, 펌프장 등 배수시설이 설치되지 않아 하천의 계획홍수위보다 제내지의 지반고가 낮은 저지대 지역에서 많이 발생하고 있다. 특히, 내수침수의 경우는 외수에 따른 범람보다는 국민의 재산과 인명피해에 직접적인 영향을 미치므로 침수피해 위험도가 높은 지역의 주민에게 그 지역의 침수빈도와 범위를 인지시키고 사전대응 능력을 향상시킬 필요가 있다. 따라서 연구의 목적으로 매년 피해가 발생한 이력이 있는 위험지구에 대해 전국단위 시군구별 침수피해 지도를 작성하여 침수심 산정과 피해액 예측할 수 있는 기초자료로 활용하고, 주민들의 신속한 대처를 통해 그들의 생명과 재산을 보호하여 재난 안전 국가 이미지 제고에 기여하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 도심지 유출모형인 XP-SWMM을 활용하여 내수재해 위험요인에 대한 전국을 해석하는 것에 한계가 있어 풍수해저감종합계획에 수록된 XP-SWMM모의 분석 결과 값을 활용하고자 하였다. 기 수립된 전국 풍수해저감종합계획의 과거 피해 자료를 바탕으로 이상 집중호우나 태풍의 내습 시 풍수해 피해 발생 가능성이 제일 높은 지역을 연구범위 대상지역으로 선정하였다. 그 중 풍수해의 주요 원인으로서 태풍, 집중호우 및 해일로 인한 피해발생 빈도가 높은 지역이면서 하천재해 및 내수침수 피해가 많은 경기도 동두천시를 연구대상 지역으로 선정하였으며, 대상지 유역 현황과 지형정보 및 빈도별 침수심을 조사하였다. 수록된 내용에 따르면 경기도 동두천시는 우수관망의 밀도가 높은 4개 위험지구를 내수재해 발생가능성 지역으로 선정하여 10년, 20년, 30년, 50년, 100년, 200년 6개 빈도에 대해 XP-SWMM 모의를 실시하였다. 이와 같이 수록된 각 빈도에 대한 모의 결과 값을 GIS기술을 이용하여 디지털화 하고 부가적인 분석을 위한 GIS데이터화 하는 내삽법을 선정하여 침수면적 및 침수심을 산출하였다. 그러나 면적비교를 통해 모의 결과 값을 디지털화 하는 과정에서 많은 오차가 발생되는 것을 확인하였고, 이를 보완하기 위해 좌표보정 자동화 프로그램을 개발하여 이러한 문제점을 제거하여 신뢰도를 향상시켰다. 이렇게 계산된 연구 대상지역의 침수심과 침수면적을 활용하여 지도제작 표준 지침서 및 가이드라인을 제시하여 한국형 호우피해 지도제작 기술개발에 기여하고, 비구조적 대책으로서 이상홍수에 대한 위험도를 파악하여 지역별 도심침수 방지를 위한 대비체계를 구축하는 등 위험지역에 대한 사전분석 및 활용에 기초자료로 도움이 되고자 한다.

To alleviate financing difficulties of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), the government and municipal governments are providing a variety of SME policy funding programs. This study introduced the policy funding program of Gangwon-do and quantitatively analyzed the financial performance of companies supported by the Gangwon-do SME policy fund in the year 2014. Specifically, we compared the financial ratios for three years, from 2013 to 2015, between funded firms and non-funded firms. In addition, we applied a regression analysis to see if the policy funding program contributed to profitability (the operating profit growth and return on equity), stability (the interest coverage ratio and debt-to-equity ratio), and growth (the asset growth and sales growth) of the funded firms. The empirical results show that the firms that received the policy funds did not show any improvement compared to non-funded firms in terms of profitability, stability, and growth. This suggests that Gangwon-do should improve the policy funding program, that currently provides only an interest amount of 2-4% of the corporate loan principal, without any strategic selection criteria for the target funded firms, and without any follow-up management system, after support.

This study was carried out to evaluate carbon footprint during unhulled rice production and to compare mitigation technologies of methane, main carbon source during rice production, Carbon footprint of unhulled rice was a sum of $CO_2$ emission of agri-materials manufacture, rice cultivation and waste treatment. It was emitted 1.40 kg $CO_2$ during unhulled rice production, its distribution was 71.1% by $CH_4$ emission of rice cultivation, 11.8% of $N_2O$ emission by nitrogen application and 7.6% of complex fertilizer manufacture. $CH_4$ emission could be mitigated by some technologies; cultivation of the early maturing rice variety emitted lower by 44.4% than the mid maturing variety, intermittent drainage of submerged water by 43.8% than the continuous flooding condition, direct seeding by 32.0% than transplanting cultivation, no-ploughing by 20.9% than ploughing cultivation. It means that LCA on Global Warming Potential and the statistical data on innovated technical practice are key tools to systemize Measurable-Reportable-Verifiable (MRV) system for carbon footprint and carbon emission trade in the farm base.
