For improving water quality and hish habitat environment the targeted instream flows added to the field measurement of low flow at each reach along Wonju Cheon are calculated by depth, velocity, and the present lower channel width with considering the landscape, aquatic environment, and natural ecological function. Target instream flow increasing ranged from $0.03m^3/s$ of upstream to $0.90m^3/s$ of downstream according to the proposed depths of 0.10m to 0.30m and velocity of 0.2m/s. The methods for target instream flow increasing are base flow increasing by watershed management, non polluted discharge inflow from valley and combined sewer by sewerage system modification, and discharges from upstream reservoirs and detention basins near-by stream. The possible increasing flow rates are $0.19m^3/s$ to $3.42m^3/s$ which are 1.4 to 2.5 times of low flow to be measured which are the equivalent targeted instream flows along Wonju Cheon. The BOD-based water quality improvement are analyzed by QUAL2E. The habitat suitability indices by PHABSIM of Zacco temmincki as target species at middle stream of Wonju Cheon improve significantly by low flow increasing, which is very important to improve water quality and fish habitat.

This study tries to examine the characteristics of the ancient Dujiangyan Irrigation System and geographical conditions in the western part of Sichuan Basin in China. The Dujiangyan System constructed in the third century B.C is located at the mouth of gorge of the River Mi. This spot shows that its altitude above sea level is higher than that of the three other rivers in this district. Also, this river reaches the maximum discharge. These facts reveal the spot has the great potentiality as an ideal location for man-made channels. Li Bing realized the "three magical projects": Yuzui and Jinggang Dyke(a water dividing dyke), Baopingkou(a water inlet), and Feishayan(a spillway). The dyke divided the River Min into two parts. The inner river is connected to the Baopingkou. And the Feishayan discharges flood and silt from the inner river to the outer. These projects have composed a scientific irrigation and drainage network. Finally, in the Chengdu Plain were digged a dozen channels for irrigation. Some of them are connected eastward to the River Bu. Since then the Dujiangyan System has been bring great benefits to agricultural production. This resulted in the population increase and establishment of new counties which have made the plain a "Land of Abundance".

Seasonal changes in nutrients and suspended organic particulates were measured in the estuary of Nak-dong River in relation to the black laver bed. Monthly measurements of water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, nutrients ( $NH_4$-N, $NO_2$-N, $NO_3$\-N, $PO_4$-P and $SiO_2$-Si) and organic suspended particulates (organic carbon and nitrogen) were determined at five stations from February through December, 1970. PH varied 7.6-8.4 with an average of 8.0, and percent saturation of dissolved oxygen were 71-147% with an average of 100.8%. Studies gave evidence that Nak-dong River estuary is strongly enriched with nutrients. Concentrations of nutrients were: 0.13-12.54 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$ (averaging 1.63 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$) for $NH_4-N$, 0.12-2.09 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$ (averaging 0.71 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$) for $NO_2-N$, 3.46-56.79 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$ (averaging 21.54 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$) for $NO_3$-N, 4.04-57.90 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$ (averaging 23.79 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$) for total soluble nitrogen, 0.18-5.05 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$ (averaging 0.96 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$) for $PO_4$-P, and 18.33-133.29 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$ (averaging 71.57 ${\mu}g$-atoms/${\iota}$) for $SiO_2$-Si, respectively. These nutrient levels were considerably higher compare with other productive laver beds of Wan do and Pyung-il Do in Korea or Ise Bay in Japan. Concentrations of suspended organic particulates varied 55-648 ${\mu}g/{\iota}$ (averaging 392 ${\mu}g/{\iota}$) with organic carbon, 30-155 ${\mu}g/{\iota}$ (averaging 92 ${\mu}g/{\iota}$) with organic nitrogen, and its carbon-nitrogen ratios were varied within 1.5-8.4 with an average of 4.6.

가뭄은 장기간에 걸쳐 기상, 수문, 유역조건 등 복잡하고 다양한 요소에 의해 영향을 받아 진행되므로 사전에 인지하고 판단하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 또한, 일단 가뭄이 진행되면 사회 경제적으로 피해가 막대하게 발생할 수 있기 때문에 가뭄이 발생하기 전 효율적으로 모니터링하고 사전에 대응하는 것이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 이러한 가뭄의 피해를 최소화하기 위해 미국에서는 20년 전부터 가뭄감시 및 조기경보를 통한 선제적 가뭄대응 체계를 구축하여 운영 중이지만 우리나라는 그간 '사후피해 최소화' 위주의 정책으로 가뭄에 대응해 왔다. 지난해 우리나라를 포함한 전 세계는 역사상 유례없는 강수량 부족에 따른 가뭄으로 많은 어려움을 겪었다. 이에 따라, 정부는 보다 현실성 있는 가뭄분석과 대응을 목적으로 지난해 11월 국가정책조정회의를 통해 '선제적 가뭄대응'을 위한 가뭄정보분석센터(이하 센터)를 K-water에 신설하였다. 그간 우리나라는 기상청에서 가뭄을 판단하고 예측하기 위해 강수량 또는 토양수분량 등을 활용하는 '가뭄지수'를 통해 가뭄에 대한 정보를 일부 제공해 왔다. 하지만 국민들은 생 공용수 부족 시 가뭄을 체감하게 되므로 '가뭄지수'에 근거한 가뭄 판단으로는 국민이 체감하는 가뭄을 제대로 표현하지 못하는 한계가 있었다. 따라서 '가뭄지수'에 근거한 가뭄 판단으로는 초기 가뭄대응 시 국민적 공감을 얻지 못할 뿐만 아니라 효율적으로 가뭄에 대응하지 못하는 결과까지 초래될 수 있어 우리나라 실정에 맞는 가뭄판단기준과 전망기준마련이 무엇보다 시급하다고 할 수 있다. 센터는 이러한 기존 '가뭄지수'가 갖는 한계를 극복하기 위해 생 공용수의 수급 불균형을 고려하여 우리나라 실정에 맞는 수원별 가뭄판단기준과 전망기준을 마련하였으며, 이를 기반으로 1월에는 충청 및 수도권 지역에 대한 가뭄정보분석시스템을 구축하였고, 3월부터는 전국단위로 확대해 가뭄 예 경보를 시범운영 중에 있다. 또한 센터는 1년동안 시범운영 기간을 거친 후 내년부터는 본격적인 대국민 가뭄 모니터링 및 전망 정보서비스를 제공할 예정이다. 향후에는 위성정보를 활용한 가뭄영향 평가와 가뭄에 따른 물환경 영향 평가 등으로 영역을 확장하여 가뭄 통합정보를 제공하고, 사회적 경제적 영향이 고려된 가뭄평가뿐만 아니라 물리적 기반의 정량적 예측을 지속적으로 추진하여 기후변화에 대응하고 국민과 함께 가뭄문제를 효과적 해결할 수 있도록 노력해 나갈 예정이다.

Alien invasive species are introduced with or without intent and spreading all over Korea. They are known to have negative effects on biodiversity such as economic and environmental damage and causing decrease or loss of native species. The habitats like wetland, reservoir and riverside are especially in danger of being invaded by alien species due to stress and disturbance. Therefore, Korea National Arboretum is steadily working on research and studies on managing alien invasive species. This research aims to collect basic information of Ludwigia peploides subsp. montevidensis (Spreng.) P.H. Raven which was found near riverside in Suwon-si and is concerned to become an invasive alien species. We expect the description, diagram and pictures of this taxon will be helpful for early detection and effective management.

Numerous valley waters originating from Mt. Mudeung and flowing into Gwangju Cheon flowed into the confluence-type sewage conduit, the Gwangju Cheon became dry and water quality deteriorated. In this study, a method to create a stream was studied by using the valley water of Mt. Mudeung in the Gwangju cheon that flows into the sewage treatment plant as a water source. Flow and water quality surveys were investigated at four points with meaningful flow quantity. As a result, it showed a flow quantity was 105~2,721 m³/day at each point. And the average water quality was BOD₅ 0.3~1.6 mg/L. If a stream with a flow quantity of 1,500 m³/day is created during the dry season and then flows into the Namgwang bridge of Gwangju cheon, it is predicted that there will be improvements in BOD 7.3%, COD 6.5%, T-P 5.8%, and T-N 5.2%. In addition, it was determined that the load on the flow quantity of the sewage treatment plant due to the inflow of valley water would be reduced, the cost of sewage treatment would be reduced, and it would be the basis for BGN construction by creating waterside amenity in the city.

The Chuncheon Mullori area is an underprivileged area for water welfare that does not have a local water supply system. Here, water is supplied to the village by using a small-scale water supply facility that uses underground water and underground water as the source. To solve the problem of water shortage during drought and to prepare for the increasing water demand, a sand dam was installed near the valley river, and this facility has been operating since May 2022. In this study, in order to evaluate the reliability of water supply when a sand dam is assumed during a drought in the past, groundwater runoff simulation results using MODFLOW were used to generate inflow data from 2011 to 2020, an unmeasured period. After performing SWAT-K basin hydrologic modeling for the watershed upstream of the existing water intake source and the sand dam, the groundwater runoff was calculated, and the relative ratio of the monthly groundwater runoff for the previous 10 years to the monthly groundwater runoff in 2021 was obtained. By applying this ratio to the 2021 inflow time series data, historical inflow data from 2011 to 2020 were generated. As a result of analyzing the availability of water supply during extreme drought in the past for three cases of demand 20 m³/day, 50 m³/day, and 100 m³/day, it can be confirmed that the reliability of water supply increases with the installation of sand dams. In the case of 100 m³/day, it was analyzed that the reliability exceeded 90% only when the existing water intake source and the sand dam were operated in conjunction. All three operating conditions were evaluated to satisfy 50 m³/day or more of demand based on 95% reliability of water supply and 30 m³/day or more of demand based on 99% of reliability.

Seven seed samples of corn obtained from Kangweon Provincial Office of Rural Development, Kerea were tested for seed-borne fungi, and found that all the samples tested were infected with Fusarium moniliforme to an extent of $6.0{\sim}79.5%$. Severely infected seed samples showed poor germination on blotter. Seed component plating showed that the fungus present not only in tip caps, pericarps and endosperms, but also in embryos. Heavy infection of the fungus caused severe seed rot and seedling blight in soil, but the damage was not severe and many plants grew without any symptoms when the seeds with light infection were sown in soil. However the fungus was frequently detected from inside of the stems of healthy looking seedlings. The results indicate that the fungus transmit from seed to plant systemically. In inoculation experiments, the fungus produced stem rots on corn plants of 110 days old. The cultivar of Hwangok 3 was revealed more susceptible to the fungus than that of Suweon 19.
