본류와 지류가 만나는 하천 합류부에서 발생하는 복잡한 흐름 구조는 하상변동에 영향을 주며, 본류와 다른 특성을 보이는 지류의 유입은 수질과 수생태계에도 영향을 준다. 합류부는 하천 변화의 다양성을 보이기 때문에 하천 관리 측면에서 중요한 구간으로, 흐름 및 혼합 특성 이해가 중요하다. 합류부에서의 흐름 및 혼합은 본류와 지류의 유량비, 밀도차, 단차, 합류각, 하도형상 등의 영향으로 그 양상이 달라지며, 흐름장 및 두 수체에 의한 이송물질의 혼합이 이루어졌다고 간주하는 혼합거리는 지류가 본류에 미치는 영향 범위 분석을 위한 중요한 매개변수이다. 본 연구에서는 합류부 흐름에 미치는 주요 인자 중 유량비와 밀도차가 합류부 흐름 및 혼합에 미치는 영향을 수치해석을 통해 분석하고, 조건의 변화에 따른 혼합거리를 예측해 보고자 한다. 본 연구의 대상 지역인 낙동강-황강 합류부는 다기능보와 댐의 운영에 따라 유입 유량 및 유량비가 조절되며, 여름철에는 황강의 수온이 낙동강보다 평균 4℃ 이상 낮으며, 9℃(지류 20℃; 본류 29℃) 이상의 수온차가 발생하기도 한다. 이 경우 밀도비는 0.998로 밀도류가 발생할 수 있는데, 밀도류가 발생할 경우 수표면과 저층이 분리되어 흐르기 때문에 동일 유량 조건에서도 혼합 양상은 달라진다. 밀도류가 발생하기 위해서는 수표면과 저층이 분리되는 성층이 발달해야 하는데, 이는 유속 또는 유량의 범위에 따라 성층의 발달 여부가 달라질 수 있다. 이러한 현장 조건을 반영한 수치해석을 통해 다양한 유량 조건(유량비)에서 밀도의 차이(수온차)가 합류부의 흐름 및 혼합에 미치는 영향을 분석해 보고자 하며, 합류부에서 밀도차에 의한 흐름의 변화 조건을 무차원수(Richardson number, Densimetric Froude number 등)를 통해 정량화해보고자 한다. 이는 지류가 본류에 미치는 영향의 정도와 범위를 파악함으로써 하천 관리를 위한 관측망 및 현장 조사의 범위 선정의 기초자료 마련뿐 아니라 본류의 수온 변화가 발생할 수 있는 범위의 파악을 통해 수생태계에 미치는 영향 파악을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

During the period of heavy rain from 2002 to 2004, the characteristics of the inflow, temporal and spatial fluctuations of high turbid water according to thermal stratification were studied on the Andong Reservoir which is the largest artificial lake in the Nakdong River basin, Korea. Thermal stratification was formed in June. Its structure determined to the pathway of inflowing turbid water and has affected by the transportation of high turbid water. Regardless of the time and amount of inflow, the high turbid water showed the shape of underflow at the riverine zone, separated from the bottom at the transition zone and moved to the lacustrine zone with the shape of density current. The plunging point depended on the time and amount of inflow. The distributions of thermal stratification and DO concentrations were changed by inflowing discharge. Two thermoclines and minimum DO layers were found out existing at metalimnion in a specific time, respectively. The layer of high turbid water which formed with the thickness of 20 m at the maximum below the depth of 15 m moved toward dam. Not settled to the bottom, the newly formed layer was discharged through the intake-outlet and dispersed into all layers by the circulation in the fall.

A three-dimensional dynamic model was applied to Lake Paldang, Han River in this study. The model was calibrated and verified using the data measured under different ambient conditions. The model results were in reasonable agreements with the field measurements in both calibration and verification. Utilizing the validated model, we analyzed the spatial and temporal distributions of temperature, current, residence time, and spreading pattern of incoming flows within the lake. Relatively low velocity and high temperature were computed at the surface layer in the southern region of the Sonae island. The longest residence time within the lake was predicted in the southern region of the Sonae island and the downstream region of the South Branch. This can be attributed to the fact that the back currents caused by the dam blocking occur mainly in these regions. Vertical thermal profiles indicated that the thermal stratifications would be occurred feebly in early summer and winter. During early spring and fall, it appeared that there would be no discernible differences at the vertical temperature profiles in the entire lake. The vertical overturns, however, do not occur during these periods due to an influence of high discharge flows from the dam. During midsummer monsoon season with high precipitation, the thermal stratification was disrupted by high incoming flow rates and discharges from the dam and very short residence time was resulted in the entire lake. In this circulation patterns, the plume of the Kyoungan stream with smallest flow rate and higher water temperature tends to travel downstream horizontally along the eastern shore of the south island and vertically at the top surface layer. The model results suggest that the Paldang lake should be a highly hydrodynamic water body with large spatial and temporal variations.

효과적인 저수지 수질관리를 위해서는 신뢰도 높은 수리 및 수질모델이 필요하며, 이러한 모델의 성능은 다양한 수문사상에 대하여 적용함으로써 검증할 수 있다. CE-QUAL-W2 모델(이후 W2)은 횡방향 평균 2차원 수리 수질 해석 모델로써 수체의 길이에 비해 폭이 상대적으로 좁고 수심이 깊은 우리나라 대부분의 저수지 지형에 적합한 모델이다. 본 연구의 목적은 기존 연구에서 가뭄년인 2001년과 평수년인 2004년 수문사상에 대하여 보정한 대청호 W2 부영양화모델을 최근 평수년인 2006년과 가뭄년인 2008년을 대상으로 검증하는데 있다. 모델의 검증은 물수지, 수온성층 구조 변화, 부영양화 해석에 중점을 두었으며, 실측자료와 모의결과의 적합성 비교 평가는 결정계수값$(R^2)$, AME(absolute mean error)와 RMSE(root mean square error)를 이용하였다. 저수지 물수지의 적합성을 검증하기 위하여 모의수위와 실측수위를 비교한 결과, $R^2$값이 2006년과 2008년에 각각 0.9945, 0.9972로 나타나 신뢰도가 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 계절별 성층구조 변화 모의 성능을 검증하기 위해 회남수역과 댐 앞 지점에서 수심별 수온의 모의값과 실측값을 비교하였다. 2006년의 경우 모델은 홍수기 동안 안정적으로 수온 성층현상을 모의하였으나, 댐 앞 지점에서 수온 약층이 형성된 구간에서 실측값과 다소 편차를 보였으며, 오차크기는 AME가 $0.561\sim2.088^{\circ}C$, RMSE는 $0.797\sim2.762^{\circ}C$범위였다. 반면, 가뭄년인 2008년에는 전 기간에 걸쳐 모두 안정적으로 저수지 수온 성층현상을 모의하였으며, 오차크기는 AME $0.413\sim1.162^{\circ}C$, RMSE $0.546\sim1.415^{\circ}C$ 범위였다. 조류의 생산성이 높은 표층에서 T-N, T-P 및 Chl-a 농도 모의결과를 장계교, 대정리, 회남대교, 댐 앞, 추동취수탑 및 문의취수탑에서 시계열로 실측값과 비교 검증한 결과, T-N과 T-P는 2006년과 2008년 모두 모든 비교 지점에서 모의값과 실측값의 시계열 변동이 매우 잘 일치하였으며, 홍수기 이외 기간에는 큰 변동 폭을 보이지 않았다. 그러나 기존 연구에서 확인된 바와 같이 7월 이후부터 T-P 모의값이 실측값을 과대 산정하는 경향을 보였는데, 그 원인은 산소 결핍상태에서 저니층에서 용출되는 철(Fe) 또는 망간(Mn)과 같은 이온 성분이 인과 흡착하여 침전되는 기작이 모의과정에 적절히 반영되지 않은 것이 원인으로 판단된다. 조류(Chl-a)농도의 경우, 2006년과 2008년에 모든 지점에서 모델은 조류의 발생과 시계열 변화를 적절히 모의하였으나, 2008년 1월부터 8월까지 댐 앞과 추동 및 문의취수탑에서는 모의값이 실측값을 과대 산정하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 해마다 그리고 계절별로 우점하는 조류 종이 상이한 반면, 모델에서는 이에 대한 매개변수를 적절히 고려하지 못한 것이 원인으로 판단된다.

In order to investigate the changes in sea water characteristics and stratification due to operation of Shihwa tidal power plant, three dimensional numerical model is used. In summer, the density of inner part of Shihwa Lake is more affected by salinity than water temperature due to fresh water discharge. Before tidal power plant operation, the sea water characteristics in Shihwa Lake shows relatively high temperature and low salinity. After tidal power plant operation, water temperature decreases slightly and salinity tends to increase in Shihwa Lake. Also, density increases and stratification tends to weaken by mixing with sea water.

In order to see the stratification phenomenon in the coastal area induced by oceanographic conditions of the open sea, we analyzed the CTD (Conductivity-Temperature-Depth) data taken from the oceanographic survey on February 16~28, 2013. The stratification in Jukbyun coast was stronger than those of Sokcho and Gampo coast. Jukbyun line (104 line in the Serial Oceanographic Observation of National Fisheries Research and Development Institute) showed the anticyclonic eddy in the vertical distribution of temperature. The isotherm of $10^{\circ}C$ was concaved to the depth of 200 m in the middle station (station no. 9) of the line 104. It showed above $4^{\circ}C$ in positive temperature anomaly in the depth of 100~200 m in the middle station (station no. 9) of the line 104. This positive temperature anomaly was stretched to the coastal area with shallower depth. It is suggested that the stratification in Jukbyun coast was resulted from the onshoring of the Ulleung warm eddy. The movement of warm eddy may be act as a block to migration of cold water fishes like cod.

The closed water bodies, such as reservoirs and lakes, could be contaminated by an inflow of pollutants in the upstream as well as a stratification caused by seasonal natural phenomena. The vertical circulation particularly plays an important role in reduction of environmental pollutants. The factors of the vertical circulation are the temperature, wind, thermal diffusivity and sunlight. The wind is probably the most significant factor among them. Thus, it is necessary to describe the validation and application of a three-dimensional numerical model of wind-induced circulation in a thermally stratified flow. In this paper, a three-dimensional numerical model for the thermally stratified flows is presented. The model is conducted in three steps to calculate the velocity components from the momentum equations in x- and y- axis directions, the elevations from the free surface equation and the temperature from the scalar transport equation. Numerical predictions are compared with available analytical solutions for the sloshing free surface movement in a rectangular basin. The numerical results generally show a reasonable agreement with analytical solutions. And the model is applied to the circulation for the wind induced flow in a thermally stratification. Consequently, the developed model is validated by two verifications and phenomena of the internal flow.

This study was determined to analysis the characteristics of water mass in the Bottol Bada, Yeosu in August, 2010 based on the data from the distribution of water temperature and salinity. Sampling was carried out a total of three times (i.e. July 29, August 13, and August 30, 2010) and performed at three stations. Observation was done during the period of time 10:00-15:00, indicating the decreasing tidal height and turn of tide. In July 29, thermocline was found at 4 m in St. 1, but the stratification did not observe in August 13 and August 30. The remarkable water temperature between surface and bottom was found in St. 2 and St. 3, whereas St. 1 did not find. A particular finding during this study showed a cold water mass at bottom layer from St. 2 and St. 3, which was first occurred in July 29 and persisted in August 30 without any of destruction. Water temperature had a remarkable fluctuation between surface and bottom, whereas salinity had a unique in St. 1. St. 2 and St. 3 showed the increasing salinity according to water depth in August 13 and August 30. Transparency had considerable fluctuations in St. 1 and St. 3 depending to sampling date, but St. 2 did not fluctuate. Consequently, the Bottol Bada had a significantly different water mass between inner and outer waters. Furthermore, strong irradiance and weak wind play an important role in developing the stratification between surface and bottom, in particular the introduction of offshore waters contribute to highly developing the stratification in the Bottol Bada during the period of August in 2010.

Coastal boundary current flows along the eastern boundary of the Yellow Sea and its speed was about 0.l m/s during the summer 2007. In order to find major factors that affect the coastal boundary current in the eastern Yellow Sea, three-dimensional numerical model experiments were performed. The model simulation results were validated against hydrographic and current meter data in the eastern Yellow Sea. The eastern boundary current flows along the bottom front over the upper part of slopping bottom. Strength and position of the current were affected by tides, winds, local river discharge, and solar radiation. Tidal stirring and surface wind mixing were major factors that control the summertime boundary currents along the bottom front. Tidal stirring was essential to generate the bottom temperature front and boundary current. Wind mixing made the boundary current wider and augmented its north-ward transport. Buoyancy forcing from the freshwater input and solar radiation also affected the boundary current but their contributions were minor. Strong (weak) tidal mixing during spring (neap) tides made the northward transport larger (smaller) in the numerical simulations. But offshore position of the eastern boundary current's major axis was not apparently changed by the spring-neap cycle in the mid-eastern Yellow Sea due to strong summer stratification. The mean position of coastal boundary current varied due to variations in the level of wind mixing.

This study analyzed stratification and destratification processes in the Kangjin Bay (KB), South Sea, Korea, driven by the Nam Gang Dam water discharge based on numerical modeling experiments. Model performances were evaluated in terms of skill scores for elevation, velocity, temperature and salinity, with scores mostly exceeding 90%. The models reproduced the tidal current, density-driven and wind-driven current. The stratification by fresh water input and destratification by the wind mixing was assessed in terms of the characteristic Richardson number (Ri) in that Ri increased from 0 to 7~20 during the Dam water discharge period, while vertical mixing and destratification followed by the typhoon passage showed Ri, 0 to 2.
