The behavior characteristics of the saltwater intrusion in the Seomjin River Estuary by the inflow of fresh water were analysed by the field observation using CTD in the neap tide in January, June, and August 2013 as well as a numerical model, EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code). As a result, Seomjin River Estuary is found that the saltwater intrusion is sensitive to the tide and tidal and freshwater flow. The results of field observation and numerical model were similar in the range of salt, but the results of salt wedge distribution were quite different. The observation of tide and tidal current as well as hydrographic surveying the Seomjin River Estuary will be jointly conducted for the accurate analysis.

The purpose of this study is to offer the basic data of the tidal river development program by grasping the diffusion between the high density-sea water and the low density-fresh water in the tidal river. The tidal range of Hyungsan river which flows at Youngil bay in Pohang was selected to analysis the phenomenon of density current. The results obtained are as follows ; The tide of Youngil bay was one time a day, 0.104m in high tide difference and 0.085m in mean tidy difference. The change of sea level by tide was negligible. The volume of reserved water by sea water was $2,700,000m^3$ and available water of irrigation was $1,200,000m^3$ that salt density is below $750{\mu}{\mho}/cm$ out of total volume. Salt intrusion phenomenon by density current was a little water level change, however, it become a salt wedge type by the much salt invasion during the spring tide and it makes a well-mixed type by the retreating salt wedge during the neap tide. As long as there were some density differences between sea water and fresh water, net upstream flow was existed along the bottom of water way from the estuary to the upstream channel.

대체용수원의 개발이 시급하게 대두되어지고 있는 가운데 제한된 수자원을 보다 효과적으로 사용하기 위한 하나의 방법으로 지하댐(Groundwater Dam) 건설을 이용한 지하수 자원의 개발이 하나의 방법으로 제안되었다. 하지만 해안지역에 설치된 지하댐을 운영할 경우 지하수위 변동에 따른 염수의 침입을 고려하여 운영하여야 한다. 특히 갈수시는 지하수위 하강이 강하게 나타나는 시기로 지하수위는 지하댐 최적운영을 위한 중요한 지표가 된다. 특히 강우량 자료를 활용한 가뭄지수와 지하수위의 관계를 설명 할 수 있다면 예상 강우자료를 활용한 장래의 지하수위를 예측 할 수 있으며 이것은 지하댐 운영에 매우 효과적으로 활용 할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 강우와 예상 강우 자료를 활용하여 지하수위 예측기법을 개발하였다. 과거 강수량의 일이동 평균값을 바탕으로 한 다항 회귀모델을 수립하여, 계절적 특성을 고려한 구간을 분리하여 적용하였다. 예측된 지하수위의 정확성을 알아보기 위해 관측된 지하수위와 예측된 지하수위를 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과 단순회귀기법을 지하수위를 예측한 경우 $0.62{\sim}0.63$의 상관계수를 보인반면 다항회귀기법을 적용한 결과 $0.62{\sim}0.84$로 상관계수가 증가하였다. 대체적으로 관측된 지하수위와 예측된 지하수위는 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 따라서 지하댐 운영에 있어 최적의 취수량을 개발하기위해 일강우자료를 활용한 지하수위 예측기법의 활용성은 매우 높은 것으로 판단된다.

Although the problem of seawater intrusion at the coastal aquifer was recognized before over one hundred years at the coastal aquifer, much groundwater keep on being salinitized by several reasons such as groundwater exhaustion, coastalline change, and human activities. The horizontal and vertical electrical soundings and geostatistical methods were used to define the local characteristics of saltwater intrusion and to estimate the saltwater interface in the southeastern area of the Pusan City. The 24 points of the Schlumberger vertical electrical soundings(VES) to loom depth and the 2 lines of dipole-dipole horizontal soundings are peformed. The resistivity data have lognormal distributions. The horizontal extents of saline water intrusion were estimated from the inversion of horizontal prospecting data. Lognormal ordinary kriging is used in A-A' resistivity profiles on May and July because the data have stationary models in semivariograms. Lognormal IRF-k kriging is used for the isopleth maps using vertical resistivity data. The 10 ohm-m resistivity line on the isopleth maps of 21m, 30m, 50m, and 70m depth using resisitivity data measured in July is sifted to the east, cpomparing that of the isopleth maps measured in May. The kriged vertical and horizontal resistivity isopleth maps suggested that the geostatistical methods can be used to define the variation of earth resistivity distribution at the saltwater interface.

기후변화로 인한 수문사상의 특성이 급격하게 변동되는 것은 이미 많은 연구로 인해 밝혀졌다. 이중, 강우사상의 경우 연강우량의 증가에도 불구하고, 일최대강우량 또는 강우강도나 강우집중률이 비교적 더 크게 증가하면서 직접유출 부분이 증가하고 침투량이 감소하면서, 즉 총강우의 유역출구로 나가는 부분이 증가하면서, 갈수기의 지하 및 하천수위는 예년에 비해 더욱 하강하고 있는 실정이 국가지하수관측망이나 하천수위 자료로서 관측되고 있다. 이는 지하수위의 변동특성이 강우패턴의 변화로 인해 분명히 영향을 받고 있다는 사실을 자료로서 입증하고 있다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 국가지하수 관측망 중 낙동강유역에 위치한 관측소를 대상으로 관측자료를 검토한 결과 총 43개의 관측소를 선정하여 암반층 36개, 충적층 19개로 관측정별 자료 수집을 하였으며, 연최대, 연평균, 연최저 지하수위에 대한 경향성 및 유의성 검정을 실시하였다. 유의성 검정은 t-test를 실시하였다. 연 평균지하수위를 기준으로 암반층은 27개 관측소가 하강하였고, 이 중 유의수준 5% 이내에 유의하며 하강하는 지점은 9개로 나타났다. 충적층은 16개 관측소가 하강하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 이 중 12개 관측소가 유의수준 5% 이내에 유의하는 것으로 나타났다. 지하수위의 하강하는 경향성이 뚜렷한 지역은 지하수의 고갈과 함께 인근하천의 건천화 그리고 지반침하나 해안지방인 경우는 염수침입이 일어날 가능성이 큰 지역이므로 향후 이에 대한 대책이 세워져야 할 것이다.

This study is intended to examine the relationship between the magnitude of sand spit in the estuary of the stream and improvement of the quality of water that flaws into the sea, by means of hydraulic experimentation. In order to determine the effect of improvements of water quality when river flow is stagnant, the estuary flows into the sea through the small sand spit, and a two-dimensional physical model experiment was carried out. Distribution of concentration was decreased in response to an increase in length of sand spit and time. The experimental results are compared with theoretical results, based on the solution of the equation. Also, there are functions of influx prevention of salt wedge and purification of pollution water due to sand spit in small estuary.

Estuary is a transitional zone between river and ocean environment that receives the maritime and riverine influence simultaneously. Estuaries are the most productive habitats because their incoming water provides large quantities of nutrients. The Seomjin River estuary, located in the middle south of Korea, has no barrage and shows natural characteristic of estuary. However, due to dredging and reclamation the environment of the estuary has been changed significantly in the river mouth. In addition, increased freshwater intake in midstream of the Seomjin River results in salinity intrusion. In this paper salinity variation in downstream estuary of the Seomjin River has been simulated and tested using EFDC model. The results of simulation were compared with measured data collected at three points, Culture & Art Center, Sumjin Iron Bridge, and Mokdori, located at 9Km, 14Km, and 15.5Km respectively from downstream estuary. Based on the simulated results, the contribution of the flushing discharge has been evaluated in preventing the salinity intrusion by increasing the discharge flowrates released from the Juam dam.

Salinity distribution in estuary and tidal river is presented by many parameters including tidal forcing, river discharge and geographical effect. Understanding the characteristics of salinity structure is very important in the aspect of water-quality, ecological, and engineering viewpoint. Field measurement was carried out to study the distribution of salinity structure at 2 surface stations at Yeomha channel in the Han River estuary. The results of short- and long-term salinity change according to short and long tidal variability is investigated. For analyzing the axial salinity distribution at Yeomha channel, the salinity data from NFRDI is used in this study. The relationship between freshwater discharge and salinity distribution is represented through the nonlinear regression equation. The empirical equation for salt intrusion length scale, including tide, river discharge, and topographical effect is presented. As the comparison of empirical equation and existing data collected in study area, the characteristic of salt intrusion length and salinity distribution is changed by tide, fresh water, and geographical effect.

The Keum River Estuary was investigated two times in April and July, 1986, to study process controlling chlorophyll distribution in estuarine waters. During the surveys, distribution patterns were studied for chlorophyll-a, nutrients, ph, SPM (Suspended Particulate Matter), DO (Dissolved Oxygen), temperature, salinity, etc. During April survey(low-discharge period), sea water penetrated to Kangkyung, about 35km upstream from the constructing weir, while in July (high-discharge period) only to 3 km upstream from the weir,In April SPM showed very high concentrations (500mg/l)on the average. But very low concentrations(about10mg/l)were observed in July due to high discharge of fresh water.Chlorophyll-a concentrations showed large variations both in time and space :much higher concentraations in July than in April and sharp decrease in concentrations at the fresh water-sea water interface (April:$6.5\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}$ for fresh waters and 41.4\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}$ forestuarine waters). Differebce ub chlorophyll-a concentrations for these two surveys appear to be caused mainly by the difference in effectiveness of penetrating lights controlled by SPM in the waters. Sharp decrease in chlorophll-a at the fresh water-sea water interface is believed to be resulted from mass mortality of fresh water phytoplankton caused by changes in osmotic pressure in the region. Observations in the same regions such as increase in AOU(Apparent Oxygen Utilization)and ammonia, decrease in PH,probably resulted through decomposition processes of dead planktons,furtuer support the idea.

삽교호는 금강 하류부에서 해수의 역류에 의한 염수 침입에 따른 염해방지와 유역에 필요한 담수를 확보하기 위하여 만들어졌다. 방조제는 조위 상승에 따른 해수의 침임을 방 할 뿐만 아니라 홍수 시에는 배수갑문의 인위적인 조작을 통해서 과다한 홍수량을 바다로 배제하여 상류유역의 홍수피해를 방지하고 있다. 방조제로 인하여 기존에 염해로 인하여 취수할 수 없던 하천구간에서의 취수가 가능하게 되었으며, 일정한 수위로 관리되도록 함으로써 상당량의 농업용수를 확보하게 되었으나, 댐과는 달리 허가를 위해 가용한 유량이 얼마인지 판단을 해본 적이 없다. 그것은 방조제의 방류량이 댐의 방류량과는 달라서 조석의 영향을 매우 크게 받기 때문에 단순한 물수지 분석 등으로 이를 모의하기가 힘들기 때문이다. 게다가 1일 2회의 조석이 발생하므로 1일단위의 물수지 분석은 어려운 현실이다. 방조제의 공급능력을 고려하지 않고 물수지 분석을 하게 되면, 취수하고 있는 용수는 추가적으로 확보되는 물을 사용하는 것이 아니라 자연하천에서의 물을 사용하는 것으로 분석된다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해서는 방조제가 공급 가능한 가용허가수량이 얼마인지 분석하고 이를 물수지 분석에 반영해 줄 수 있도록 해야 할것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 조위예측방법 및 수문조작 방법등 주요 모의 알고리즘을 이용하여 물수지 분석 모형을 개발하고 수자원장기종합계획의 일별자연유출량 자료에 대해 물수지 분석을 수행함으로써 삽교천방조제의 수리권 가용수량에 대해 추정하여 보았다. 적용 결과 삽교천방조제에 의해 기존의 갈수량인 $4.9m^3$/초 외에 안정성이 요구되는 생 공용수로 약 $4.2m^3$/초의 유량과, 제한적인 시기만 사용하는 농업전용으로 약 $10.3m^3$/초의 유량이 공급 가능할 것으로 나타났다.
