본 고에서는 낙동강 하류지방의 배후습지성 호조에 대해서 살펴보았다. 후빙기 해면상승과 관련시켜 고찰할 때, 이들 호조는 삼림남발로 인한 가속된 토양침식 및 주요 하도의 하상 상승때문에 근래에 발달된 것이 아니라, 낙동강 범람원이 현해면을 기준으로 형성되어 가는 중에 발달된 지형임이 확실하다. 대실아언은 정양지와 박실지가 30년 또는 40년 이래에 생긴 호조라고 지적했다. 그러나, 대정6년(1917) 측도 1:50,000 지형도에 이 두 호조가 나타나 있는 것을 보면, 그가 채택한 주민의 증언은 사실과 다름이 분명하다. 주민의 증언은 이들 호조의 하단부에 공수시 황강의 역수를 막기 위해 쌓은 제방의 축조 년대를 가리키는 것이 아닌가 생각된다. 그리고 박실지는 흡지의 간척으로 과거에 비해 많이 축소되었다. 배후습지 및 배후습지성 호조는 확대되는것이 아니다. 토사축적과 간척으로 계속 축소되고 있는 것이 일반적인 경향이다. 배후습지성 지형은 한강 및 금강 하류에서도 발견되지만, 낙동강 하류지방에 가장 널리 분포한다.

The propose of this research paper is to clarify the formative process of the lake-like swamps formed in channels of Nakdong-gang river and its tributary, Gumho-gang river. In order to understand the formative process of lake-like swamps, I compared topographical maps of three years(1918, 1962, 2005), analyzed the outline change of swamps, and draw their cross-sectional view and analyzed the horizontal distribution of particle size. Results of analysis are as follow. First, Saegang swamp and Geumgang swamps are residual swamps which are formed in abandoned distributary channels of braided reach. In braided reach, tributaries wind freely to create a new channel or to eliminate a old channel. Second, the Ssiksil swamp and Nat swamp are yazoo-type swamps. Their stream channels run parallel to the natural levees, as it blocks the waterway of a effluent tributary flowing from backward mountains to main stream. Third, the Secheon, Hochon and Jinchon swamps are backswamp behind natural levee. As main stream overflows, natural levee and back swamp are formed. Later flowing water of next bigger flood enter through natural levee into backswamp, create a channel following backswamp.

Backswamp is the section of a floodplain where deposits of fine silts and clays settle after a flood. In general, the wetland is composed of diverse ecosystems, and is characterized by ecotone. The purpose of this study was to analyze vegetation naturalness and to assess vegetation value by syntaxonomy and synecology of Useupje backswamp at Yeongsan river. As a result, the vegetation was divided into four physyiognomy types and 14 vegetation units depending on the species composition and habitats. The vegetation units confirmed in the study were as follow: Spirodela polyrhiza community as floating plant; Trapa bispinosa var. inuma community and Trapa bispinosa var. inumai-Nelumbo nucifera community as floating-leaved plant; Paspalum distichum community, Persicaria thunbergii community and Phalaridetum arundinaceae as lentic vegetation in the eulittoral zone; Scirpo fluviarilis-Zizanietum latifoliae and Typha angustata community in the emerged zone; Scirpetum tabernaemontani and Phragmitetum australis in the littoral zone; Carex dimorpholepis-Salix subfragilis community ecotone region of upland. According to the study, the vegetation distribution was highly affected by water level and artificial interference. Moreover, the development of vegetation units showed a significant relationship between species composition and habitats. Although vegetation value of Useupje resulted by vegetation naturalness was identified as the grade [III], the ecological value is expected to upward evaluation because of unique vegetation and geographical location.

Natural lakes are estimated in variety with that's function or value depending on age environment or geographical characteristics. There are many kind of natural lakes, but the kind of natural lake is limited in rivers in korea flowing into East Sea. However, Yeonho lake in Uljin has different geographical characteristics with oxbow lake or lagoon which is common in korea's river flowing into East Sea. Therefore the purpose of this study is to analyze geographical characteristics due to the process of Yeonho's formation. Further more research for protecting wetland is needed to adequately preserve, depending on the geomorpologic process. To analyze geographical characteristics, it was essential to compare and analyze topographical map of 1918 1956 2012 and I pictured estinated line of bedrock and longitudinal section of Nam-dae cheon(Riv) Yeonho cheon(Riv). In addition, I denoted flooded areas through design flood level of Nam-dae cheon(Riv) Yeonho cheon(Riv) and analyzed particle size distribution of deposited sediment due to consider deposit environment. The results of study are as follows. In conclusion, Yeonho lake is floodbasin which was not researched at river flowing into East Sea. Through this study, my opinion is that floodbasin can be formed in the river that is steep and short. I argue that preservation methods will be seeked by geomorphologic process of floodbasin and development of downtown.

The aims of this study are to clarify the geomorphological development of a alluvial plain and discuss the vegetation environments and agriculture activities in the Wangpo-River alluvial plain at Neungsan-ri, Buyeo by analyzing geomorphological classification, sedimentary facies and age datings. The alluvial plain at Wangpo-River was formed by the influences of Geum-River with the sea-level rising during the Holocene. The basin of Wangpo-River consists of natural levees, back marsh-type alluvial plains, valley plains and hills. The natural levees by Geum-River largely distributes at the area where Wangpo-River flows to Geum-River and the alluvial plains at the middle and lower reach are the back marsh areas of Geum-River. Moreover, the area along Wangpo-River show higher contents of coarse materials and thinner peat sediments than the back marsh. The lower sandy deposits in the alluvium of Wangpo-River was formed with the influences of human in the Bronze Age during the sea level falling and the peaty deposits was formed due to the water level rising of Wangpo-River during the sea level rising in the early Iron Age.

범람원은 홍수시 하천의 유량이 급격하게 증가해서 하천의 운반물질인 부유 하중이 하도를 넘어 하천 양안에 범람하여 퇴적되면서 형성된 지형으로, 유량이 많고 하곡이 넓은 지역에서 잘 발달한다. 범람원 중 자연제방은 지면이 높아 홍수의 피해가 적고, 배수가 잘 되기 때문에 취락의 입지나 농경에 유리하고, 배후습지는 지하수위가 높아 배수가 불량한 지형으로 오늘날에는 농경지로 개간하여 활용하고 있다. (중략)

강의 하도와 연결되어 간헐적으로 침수되는 홍수터는 가장 생산적인 육역 서식처 중 하나이다. 하지만 도시 개발과 농업이용은 강의 하도와 홍수터와의 연결을 제한함으로써 그 기능이 상당부분 축소되었다. 이에 기존 홍수터 서식처를 특성화하고 미래 홍수터 복원을 계획하는 것은 하천관리 및 생태계 회복을 위해서도 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 홍수 흐름의 규모, 시기, 기간, 빈도 등을 포함한 하천 유황 특성과 생태적 반응이 나타나는 홍수터 영역과 흐름 특성을 연계함으로써 서식처를 정량화 하고자 하였다. 이를 위한 홍수터 복원의 시나리오는 현재 지형(기존 홍수터), 제방후퇴, 제방후퇴/구하도 복원, 제방후퇴/배후습지 조성으로 설정하였다. 홍수터 서식처를 정량화하기 위한 방법으로는 일 유량의 수문통계학적 분석, 수리학적 모델링을 통한 범람 분석, 어류 물리서식처 모델링을 통한 가중가용면적 분석 등을 수행하였다. 그 결과 잠재복원영역(Potential Restored Area)에서 연중 기대되는 서식처 면적(Expected Annual Habitat Area)의 크기는 제방후퇴/배후습지 조성, 제방후퇴/구하도 복원, 제방후퇴, 기존 홍수터 순으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제안된 홍수터 복원에 따른 서식처 정량화 방안은 홍수터 복원 계획 설계 시 시나리오 별 서식처 복원효과를 예측 평가함으로써 보다 효과적인 방안을 마련할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The Ramsar protected area in Ungok wetland, which has been designated since 2011, was described by syntaxonomy and synchorology. Phytocoenon was identified and named by a traditional method of the $Z{\ddot{u}}rich$-Montpellier School and Code of Phytosociological Nomenclature. Habitat-based vegetation classification has identified into twelve syntaxa consisting of 88 taxa in seven vegetation types: Juncus effusus var. decipiens-Salix koreensis community, Caricis-Salicetum subfragilis, Galium spurium var. echinospermon-Phragmites japonica community, Phragmitetum australis, Scirpetum fluviatilis, Leersia japonica-Typha angustifolia community, Juncus diastrophanthus-Juncus effusus var. decipiens community, Leersicetum japonicae, Nymphoido indicae-Trapetum japonicae (typicum, marsiletosum quadrifoliae subass. nova hoc loco, variante Euryale ferox), Nelumbo nucifera community, Utricularia tenuicaulis community, Potamogetonetum crispi. Actual vegetation map was made by using topographical map of scale 1 : 5,000. Habitat-based management on the Ungok wetland vegetation was required, in which there are composed of two major areas such as the back-swamp vegetation and the limnetic vegetation zone.

This study was carried out on Sihwa reclaimed area from January to December in 2003. We observed total 169,351 individuals of 70 species(22 species of waders, 9 species of egrets and 5 species of gulls). Waterbird population was the largest in March(95,465 individuals) and was the smallest from April to June(less than 7,000 individuals). The most dominant species was Pintail(Anas acuta: 58,627 individuals, 34.6%) and other species were Mallards(Anas platyrhynchos: 24.5%), Common Pochards(Aythya ferina: 13.8%), Black-tailed Gulls(Larus crassirostris: 6.1%), Spotbill Ducks(Anas poecilorhyncha: 5.0%) and Greater Scaups(Aythya marila: 2.69%). Sihwa reclaimed area supported many kinds of protected species such as Chinese egrets(Egretta eulophotes), Black-faced Spoonbills(Platalea minor), Eurasian Spoonbills(Platalea leucorodia), Mute Swans(Cygnus olor), Whooper Swans(Cygnus cygnus), and Eurasian Oystercatchers(Haematopus ostralegus). They foraged at waterside of Sihwa lake and rested at reclaimed area. Particularly, Eurasian Oystercatchers bred in habitats with Salicornia herbacea and Suaeda japonica. Reclamation of mud flats and construction of roads, transmission towers and tide embankments disturbed waterbirds in breeding and foraging. We suggest that waterbirds are protected in different action plans according to their status such as breeding, passaging and wintering birds. Maintaining of waterside and swamps in Sihwa reclaimed area will be useful for breeding waterbirds. It is needed to make a protect zone for ecological connecting belt from Oeji isarea, Hyeong isarea, Eum isarea to upper channel on Sihwa lake.
