The hydrogeochemical and isotopic studies on deep groundwater (below a 550 m depth from the ground surface) in the Munkyeong area, Kyeongbuk province were carried out. Two types of deep groundwater (${CO_2}$-rich groundwater and alkali groundwater) occur together in the Munkywong area. ${CO_2}$-rich groundwater (Ca-${HCO_3}$ type) is characterized by low pH (5.8~6.5) and high TDS (up to 2,682 mg/L.), while alkali groundwater (Na-${HCO_3}$ type) shows a high pH (9.1~10.4) and relatively low TDS (72~116 mg/L). ${CO_2}$-rich water may have evolved by ${CO_2}$ added at depth during groundwater circulation. This process leads to the dissolution of surrounding rocks and Ca, Na, Mg, K and ${HCO_3}$ concentrations are eniched. The low $Pco_2$ ($10^{-6.4}$atm) of alkali groundwaters seems to result from the dissolution of silicate minerals without a supply of ${CO_2}$. The ${\delta}^{18}O$ and ${\delta}^D$values and tritium data indicate that two types of deep groundwater were both derived from pre-thermonuclear meteoric water and have evolved through prolonged water-rock interaction. The carbon isotope data show that dissolved carbon in the ${CO_2}$-rich water was possibly derived from deep-seated ${CO_2}$ gas, although further studies are needed. The ${\delta}^{34}S$ values of dissolved sulfate show that sulfate reduction occurred at great depths. The application of various chemical geothermometers on ${CO_2}$-rich groundwater shows that the calculated deep reservoir temperature is about 130~$l75^{\circ}C$. Based on the geological setting, water chemistry and environmental isotope data, each of the two types of deep groundwater represent distinct hydrologic and hydrogeochemical evolution at depth and their movement is controlled by the local fracture system.

In this study, high school students' problem-solving strategy-performing ability was measured by an essay-type test. The relationship between students' logical thinking ability and strategy-performing ability was also investigated. Four classes (N=187) were selected from two high schools in Seoul, and the strategy performance ability test and the Group Assessment of Logical Thinking (GALT) were administered. Evaluation scheme for strategy-performing ability consists of 7 subcategories - understanding given of problems, recalling related law, setting up subgoals, deriving physical quantities, logical progress, mathematical execution, and reviewing. The intercoder agreement for scaling was .92, which indicated substantial strength of agreement. The results revealed that students' ability of understanding given of problems and mathematical execution was relatively high. However, their ability of setting up subgoals and reviewing was very low. The total scores of the strategy performance ability test and all of the scores of each subcategory were significantly correlated with the GALT scores.

This study was carried out to provide proper management plans for small portable water supply system in the Nonsan area through water quality monitoring, hydrogeochemical investigation and multivariate statistical analyses. Nonsan area is a typical rural area heavily depending on small water supply system for portable usage. Geology of the area is composed of granite dominantly along with metasedimentary rocks, gneiss and volcanic rocks. The monitoring results of small portable water supply system showed that 13-21% of groundwaters have exceeded the groundwater standard for drinking water, which is 5 to 8 times higher than the results from the whole country survey (2.5% in average). The major components exceeding the standard limits are nitrate-nitrogen, turbidity, total coliform, bacteria, fluoride and arsenic. High nitrate contamination observed at southern and northern parts of the study area seems to be caused by cultivation practices such as greenhouses. Although Ca and $HCO_3$ are dominant species in groundwater, concentrations of Na, Cl and $NO_3$ have increased at the granitic area indicating anthropogenic contamination. The groundwaters are divided into 2 groups, granite and metasedimentary rock/gneiss areas, with the second principal component presenting anthropogenic pollution by cultivation and residence from the principal components analysis. The discriminant analysis, with an error of 5.56% between initial classification and prediction on geology, can explain more clearly the geochemical characteristics of groundwaters by geology than the principal components analysis. Based on the obtained results, it is considered that the multivariate statistical analysis can be used as an effective method to analyze the integrated hydrogeochemical characteristics and to clearly discriminate variations of the groundwater quality. The research results of small potable water supply system in the study area showed that the groundwater chemistry is determined by the mixed influence of land use, soil properties, and topography which are controlled by geology. To properly control and manage small water supply systems for central and local governments, it is recommended to construct a total database system for groundwater environment including geology, land use, and topography.

The sixty natural springs and community wells used as a drinking water in the Daejeon area are mainly located at the parks and the natural green districts. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of water quality and the contamination of the springs and the wells, and to suggest the management strategy for the springs and wells. For this study, we undertook water quality data from Daejeon City. According to the statistic analysis of water quality data, unacceptable rate as a drinking water was about 28 percent in 1999 and 24.5 percent in 2000, respectively. Major unacceptable factor is coliform, and others are bacteria, yersinia, color, turbidity, Fe and F. The unacceptable rate shows a roughly positive relationship with precipitation, that is, it shows highest rate during a rainy season between June and September. The major contamination source is likely to be the excrement of wild animals around natural springs and wells. Most of springs are vulnerable to the contamination of coliform and bacteria because of short residence time and shallow circulation in subsurface environment. The water samples collected from 31 springs or wells show weak acidic pHs, the electrical conductivity ranging from 63 to 357 $\mu\textrm{S}$/cm, and the hydrochemical types of Na(Ca)-HC0$_3$ and Ca-HC0$_3$. The groundwater samples of low total dissolved solid(TDS) belong to Na(Ca)-HC0$_3$. type, and the groundwater of high total dissolved solid is shifted towards Ca-HC0$_3$ type in the chemical composition. These hydrochemical characteristics indicate that most natural springs is in the early stage of geochemical evolution. The natural springs should be closed during a rainy season, which shows a high contamination rate. We suggest that a protection barrier around the springs should be built to keep wild animals away from the springs.

강원도 지역의 대표적인 탄산용출수에 대한 수리지구화학적 연구를 통하여 심부 지열 저장지의 온도와 심부환경을 추정하였다. 탄산용출수는 공통적으로 약산성의 pH와 높은 이온함량으로 특징되지만, 화학적으로는 Na-HCO$_3$형, Ca-Na-HCO$_3$형, 그리고 Ca-HCO$_3$형으로 뚜렷이 구분된다. 심부에서 생성된 탄산용출수가 지표로 상승하는 도중에 수반된 지표수 혼합차이로 인해 이런 화학조성의 차이가 유발된 것으로 판단된다. Na-HCO$_3$형 탄산수는 화학 조성상 ‘mature water’의 특징을 보여주는 반면, 다른 두 유형의 탄산수들은 ‘immature water’에 해당하였다. Na-HCO$_3$ 형 탄산수에 대하여 실리카, Na-K 및 Na-K-Ca 지온계를 적용한 결과, 약 l15-157도의 심부저장지 온도가 산출되었으며, 이 결과는 다성분 평형계를 이용한 추정 온도 (약 140-160도)와도 잘 일치하였다. 반면, Ca-HCO$_3$ 형 탄산수들은 지표수와의 혼합 때문에 상대적으로 낮고 넓은 범위의 추정 온도 (약 60-130도)를 나타내었다. 따라서 연구지역 내 탄산용출수의 심부저장지 온도는 Na-HCO$_3$형에 대해서만 타당하게 적용될 수 있으며, 약 140-160도일 것으로 추정된다.

Hydrogeologic and hydrochemlcat conditions of two uncontrolled landfills without reliable underlying liners, leachate collection and treatment systems were compared. With similar weather conditions, spatial distribution and temporal variations of contaminants of concern and redox parameters were different for the two landfills. These differences are highly associated with ages and hydrogeologic settings of the landfills. Groundwater flow diverges from the Cheonan landfill while it converges to downgradient area in the Wonju landfill. Less permeable clayey silt layer or silty soil in the subsurface limited dispersion of leachate plume in the former landfill but highly permeable sandy soil with good lateral extent facilitated rapid plume dispersion in the latter landfill. In addition, hydraulic properties of the cover soil played a role in the different development of redox conditions, which resulted in significantly different concentrations of nitrates. Most problematic contaminants at downgradient wells of the landfills are ammonia and nitrate.

K시 강변여과수 개발 지역에서 적정 채수량 산정 및 지표수 연계 특성을 파악하기 위한 적절한 현장 시험 세부계획 수립과 그 근거를 마련하였다. 일반적으로 단계양수시험을 통하여 적정 채수량 산정 후, 산정된 적정 채수량으로 장기양수 시험을 통하여 주변 수리권에 미치는 지하수위 변화와 강변여과수의 수질변화를 관찰하여 지표수와 연계한 변동특성을 파악하는 일련의 과정을 생각할 수 있다. 그러나 K시 강변여과수 개발 지역과 같은 연약 지반에서는 단계 양수시험시의 높은 양수량에 인한 지반 침하의 우려로 인해 이에 대한 공정의 변화가 불가피하였다. 따라서 현장 시험 공정 순서를 바꾸어서 장기 양수 시험 후 단계양수시험을 수행하는 새로운 대안을 모색하였고 이를 뒷받침 해주는 근거를 제시하고자 한다. 뿐만 아니라 단계양수시험의 단계별 적절한 양수시간을 합리적, 효율적으로 결정하여 경제적이면서 가급적 빠른 시간 내에 단계양수시험을 완료 가능하게 만들고, 가능한 한 더 오랜 기간동안 장기 양수 시험을 가능하게 함으로써 제한된 시간내에 많은 수리지질학 및 화학적인 정보를 얻을 수 있도록 하였다.

국내 하천에는 하천을 가로지르는 보나 낙차공과 같은 횡단구조물이 약 5만여개에 달하고 있다. 이러한 보/낙차공과 같은 하천횡단구조물에는 구조물을 월류하여 떨어지는 부분의 세굴을 막기 위하여 apron(물받이공)을 조성하도록 되어있고, 물받이공 하류부 세굴을 막기 위하여 사석을 깔거나, 돌망태를 설치하여 이 부분에서의 세굴을 막아 하상을 보호하도록 하고 있다. 그러나 사석이나 돌망태공, 블록을 이용한 보호공은 한 번 설치되면 이들 공법이 제자리에 남아 있는 한 세굴 방지에 좋은 효과를 발휘한다는 장점이 있지만 포설된 공법은 시간이 지남에 따라 혹은 홍수로 인해 이동되거나 소실되는 문제가 발생되며, 최종적으로 하천횡단구조물의 안전성에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 이와 더불어 강우량의 증대 및 집중호우 등 돌변하는 기후변화로 하천환경변화에 대한 적용 가능한 기술이 미비하다. 따라서 하천에 유해한 물질을 방출시키지 않고 하천환경 및 하천 생물의 생활사에 영향을 주지 않는 무 저독성 소재를 활용하여 치수적으로 수리적 안정성을 강화시키고, 생태적으로도 건강한 생태하천 복원 기술개발이 요구되는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 무독성 소재를 활용하여 보 하류부에 자연친화적인 하상보호공으로 다층다공성 하상보호기술을 개발하였으며, 개발된 하상보호기술을 CFD 3차원 수치해석과 실내실험을 통하여 수리적 안전성을 검토하였다. 또한 개발된 기술은 김해시 대청천 하류 일부구간에 시범적으로 적용하였고, 시범사업 시공 전 중 후 각 단계에서 물리, 화학, 생물 모니터링을 통하여 개발기술의 현장 적용성을 검증하였다.
