도시로의 인구 유입과 이로 인해 요구되는 도시 개발은 자연에 환경적 및 수리수문학적으로 부정적인 영향을 미치게 되며, 이러한 도시화는 산림이나 농경지와 같은 투수지역을 건물, 도로 등의 불투수지역으로 변화시켜 홍수파의 도달시간이 줄어들고 첨두 유량이 증가하여 수문변화를 유발하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 대전 소재 관평천 일대 도시화 진행 지역을 연구 대상으로 선정하여, 도시화 진행 초기부터 도시화 및 불투수층 증가가 인근 소하천 유출량과 시험 유역의 지하수위에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 장기간에 걸친 모리터링 계획을 수립하고 관측을 시작하였다.

Overseas examples of the characterization stage of site selection proposed by the International Atomic Energy Agency were reviewed to highlight the factors necessary for consideration in the deep disposal of high-level radioactive waste. Studies in Sweden, Finland, the USA, and Canada were considered. Site investigations in Sweden and Finland commonly covered the fields of geology, hydrogeology, and hydrogeochemistry using similar field investigation techniques. The USA considered survey groups and factors under pre- and post-lockdown guidelines, as well as those for desaturated and saturated surveys. involving geophysical, hydrological, hydrogeological, hydrogeochemical, mechanical/physical, and thermal-characterization investigations. Canada provided a list of investigative methods for both preliminary and detailed site assessments including geological, physical, boring, hydrological, laboratory testing, and chemical analysis studies. Results of this study should elucidate site-selection investigation factors and survey methods applicable to Korea.

임해지역의 도시팽창과 산업화는 각종 용수공급을 위해 지하수의 양수할 경우 해수침투로 인한 지하수의 염수화를 야기 시켜, 지하수의 해수기원의 성분에 대하 농도변화에 의해 식수나 관개용수로의 지하수 사용에 부적합한 사례들이 이미 밝혀진 바 있다(Barker et at., 1998; Bear et al., 1999). 임해지역에서 해수침투의 영향에 대한 저감화를 위해 지하수의 수리지질학적 및 수리지구화학적 연구가 요구된다. (중략)

This study aims to investigate hydrogeological properties of the central area from Yangjeong-Dong to Sujeong-Dong in Busan Metropolitan City. For this study, pumping tests were carried out in the bedrock aquifer of Yangjeong-Dong and the unconsolidated aquifer near Busanjin railway station. The pumping test in the bedrock aquifer containing the Dongrae fault revealed specific hydraulic characteristics with respect to the fault. The pumping test in the unconsolidated aquifer revealed the hydrogeologic properties of both coastal landfill and fine sediments. It was found that the Moench's sphere-shaped dual-porosity model fits the bedrock aquifer, whereas the Neuman's uncofined aquifer model accords with the unconsolidated aquifer. The average transmissivity and storage coefficient of the bedrock aquifer are $2.75{\times}10^{-5}m^2/s\;and\;6.41{\times}10^{-5}$ and those of the unconsolidated aquifer are $8.24{\times}10^{-4}m^2/s\;and\;3.70{\times}10^{-3}$, respectively. On the other hand, slug tests gave average transmissivity and storage coefficient values of $9.84{\times}10^{-4}m^2/s\;and\;1.21{\times}10^{-2}$, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to identify the geology, geologic structure, hydrogeology and geomorphic characteristics of the Nari Basin and establish the controls on the discharge of water 20,000~40,000 m³/day from the Choosan Yongchulso, Ulleung Island, South Korea. Pumice and lapilli tuffs showing well-developed stratification are the predominant rock types surrounding the spring. The spring shows a structure whereby discharge occurs along a lens-like erosion cave formed by differential erosion of strata comprising tuff or pumice tuff. The Choosan Yongchulso is located at the point where the planation surface of the Nari Basin' ends and steep slopes begin. The basin is bounded on all sides by these steep slopes, except in the north, where the Choosan Yongchulso is located. Given these geomorphic characteristics, the Choosan Yongchulso is regarded as the ultimate outlet of the basin catchment area.

Water levels of thermal groundwater ($>30^{\circ}C$) were recorded from March 2002 to June 2006 at several monitoring wells within the Yuseong spa area. Using these data, we elucidated the long-term cyclic fluctuations of thermal groundwater levels with 1 year period. We also observed a noticeable water level variation with periods of 0.5, 1 and 7 days in most monitoring wells, which indicates relatively good hydraulic connectivity within the main hotspring area. By comparing water level variations among several wells, we found out that E-W and N-S trending geological structures should be an important control factor for emplacement and flow of thermal groundwater in the study area. It may be also inferred that geothermal source is highly associated with the hydraulic connectivity of aquifers at the Yuseong spa area.

In this work, we have carried out a sensitivity analysis of hydrogeologic parameters such as reaction factor and drainable pore space in groundwater table fluctuation model and have found characteristics of parameter distribution according to the altitude. We found that drainable pore space which is hydrogeologic parameter of aquifer didn't show any trend with altitude while reaction factor which is groundwater flow characteristic showed clear trend with altitude. To find a sensitivity of parameters, we compared RMSE of estimated groundwater recharges by using the mean value and linear relationship of parameters. As results, the linear equation derived for entire watersheds could be applied to estimate parameters for ungauged watershed. Furthermore, the features of parameter distribution can be used to predict hydrogeologic parameter in ungauged watersheds and it is expected that those features could be used for a basic data for groundwater modeling.

This study was performed to investigate the correlation between hydraulic conductivity and the flow rate of an aquifer, with the flow rate calculated from the laterals of the radial collector well using data obtained by the development project of riverbank filtration (Second Phase) in Changwon City. The hydraulic conductivity was empirically calculated from unconsolidated sediments collected from a sandy gravel layer along the middle-to-downstream sections of the Nakdong River. The Beyer equation produced the most suitable hydraulic conductivity from the various empirical formulas employed. The calculated hydraulic conductivity ranged from 0.083 to 0.264 cm/s, with an average value of 0.159 cm/s, suggesting that the aquifer in the study area possesses a high permeability with a good distribution of sandy gravel. The relationship between the calculated hydraulic conductivity in the aquifer and the entrance velocity into the screen, the flow rate was analyzed through the linear regression analysis. From the result of regression analysis, it showed that the hydraulic conductivity and the entrance velocity into the screen and the flow rate have a linear regression equation having about 72% of the high correlation. The result of verification in the measured data between each variable showed a high suitability from being consistent with the approximately 72% in the linear regression analysis. This study demonstrates that the groundwater flow rate can be estimated within the laterals of the radial collector well using a linear regression equation, if the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer is known. This methodology could thus be applicable to other aquifers with hydraulic conductivity and permeability parameters similar to those in the present study area.

Since the early 2010s, the social importance of research and practical projects targeting deep geological disposal of high-level nuclear waste, underground CO₂ storage and characterization of deep subsurface by borehole investigation has been increasing. In this regard, there is also a significant increase in the need for in situ test technology to obtain quantitative and reliable information on the hydraulic characteristics of deep rock mass. Through years of research and development, we have independently set up Deep borehole Hydraulic Test System (DHTS) based on the key apparatuses designed and made with our own technology. Using this system, high precision constant pressure injection tests were successfully completed at the two 1 km boreholes located in Mesozoic granite and sedimentary rock regions, Gyeongju. During the field tests, it was possible to measure very low flow rate below 0.01 l/min with micro flow rate injection/control module. In this paper, the major characteristics of DHTS are introduced and also some results obtained from the high precision field tests under the deep and low permeable rock mass environment are briefly discussed.

지하수를 사용하고 있는 기간은 수 천년이지만 지하수의 특성이 알려지기 시작한 것은 17세기 부터이다. 지하수는 용천이나 착정공 외에는 눈으로 볼 수 없기 때문에. 비전문가는 지하수 유동, 산출, 근원에 대하여 아직도 이해하기가 힘들다. 고대에는 지하수의 기원을 해수로 생각하였고 현 대에도 많은 사람들은 지하수는 지하하천형태로 부존하며, 수맥을 만나야만 지하수가 산출되는 것으로 이해하고 있다. 현재 수리지질전문가들은 지하수를 수문순환계의 일부로 설명하고 있으며, 국지적 규모의 지하수 유동에 대하여는 잘 알려져 있으나 광역적인 지역에서 지하수의 적정 산출량, 부존대 위치. 지하수 수질에 대한 정량적인 자료는 매우 부족한 현실이다.
