The evaluations of daily safe yield and reciprocal influence of hot spring wells are important subjects that the specialized agencies of hot spring has to survey. The survey of hot spring had been executed by Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM) prior to 1996. However, as of 2006, eight specialized agencies of hot spring are working on it and so the survey of hot spring is not consistent now. This study was carried out to analyze data from hot spring in the same way by every specialized agency. The time of residual drawdown was applied to evaluate daily safe yield because some of wells have slow recovery of drawdown. The reciprocal influence between hot spring wells was evaluated by drawdown of observation wells when a new well was pumped.

The main reason of environmental pollution and destruction due to an indiscreet development of spa is the law of spa in use. According to the law of spa, the water of spa is ordained not mineral component and its efficacy but water temperature of over $25^{\circ}C$. Therefore this research was to analyze the differences between traditional spa and newly-established spa based on heat flow, geological rock, and fault relating to spa in order to call attention to a revision of the law of spa. According to the results, the location of the traditional spas was in accord with places which are Pohang, Bugok, Dongrae and Haeundae-gu of Busan, Uljin, Chungju, Usung-gu of Daejeon, Yesan, Asan, and Ichon. The heat flow of these places is over 67mW/m2 that is an average of South Korea. Relating to a fault, 92.3% of the traditional spas concurs with a fault and 33.5% of newly-established spa is in accord with a fault. 58.2% of the traditional spas and 42.7% of the newly-established spa are consistent with the granite.

The purpose of this study was to examine the image similarity, preference, and the attribute recognition using multidimensional scaling. The analyses were carried out by 5 spa destinations located in Choongchung area. The results were as followings: first, considering the image similarity, the image of Suanbo & Onyang and Dogo & Asan were similar except for the Yusung. Second, considering the attribute recognition, Yusung had a stronger attribute reflecting spa tradition when compared to other competitive spa destinations. Onyang showed a strong attribute of facilities. Dogo had a stronger point about use cost. Suanbo had relatively strong attributes in terms of facilities, customer service, and accessability. However, the water quality of spa destination and activities were not reflected in attribute recognition because these two attributes was farthest from the spa destination. Third, considering the preference of selecting spa destinations, package tourists had a strong preference about Yusung, individual tourists, family, incentive tourists prefer Suanbo, followed by Dogo and Yusung. Group tourists had a strong preference about Dogo.

Onyanghaenggung Palace(temporary palace at Onyang) is an important cultural heritage that can substantially confirm the king's visiting at hot springs based on literature records such as <Ongungyeonggoedae(溫宮靈槐臺)>, <Oncheonhaenggungdo(溫泉行宮圖)> of 『Ongungsasil(溫宮事實)』, <Younggoedaedo(靈槐臺圖)>, 『Younggoedaegi(靈槐臺記)』 and cultural properties such as Yeonggoedae(靈槐臺) and Shinjeong Monument(神井碑). Through a photo taken by Hermann Sander in 1906, it can be confirmed that the hot springs(Tangsil building) at Onyanghaenggung Palace during the Joseon Dynasty was maintained until the early Japanese colonial period. The purpose of this study is to estimate the compositions of the hot springs(Tangsil building) in Onyanghaenggung Palace based on literature records and <Oncheonhaenggungdo>(1795). To achieve these purposes, we firstly examined the changes in Onyanghaenggung Palace and the hot springs (Tangsil building); secondly, the bathing behaviors of kings were reviewed; thirdly, we organized the architectural composition of the hot springs (Tangsil building) according to "Ongung Repair" of 『Ongungsasil (溫宮事實)』; and fourthly, by comparing Sander's photo in the early days of Japanese colonial rule, the architectural composition of the hot springs (Tangsil building) in the late Joseon Dynasty was examined. The results of this study are as follows. First, the hot springs(Tangsil building) of Onyanghaenggung Palace were continuously connected to the Onjeongsil(溫井室) in the reign of King Hyeonjong and maintained until 『Hoseo-eupji』 (1871) in the late Joseon Dynasty. It matches the photograph taken by Hermann Sander(1906) and <1912 Onyang Hot Springs in Asan City>(1912) of Korea Copyright Commission during the early Japanese colonial period. Second, the various king's bathing methods during the Joseon Dynasty were adopted such as washing, spilling and bathing head while sitting on a bathing platform or chair, or exposing the steam of hot spring water, dipping feet into the water and a half-body soaking bath below the navel immersed in water. Third, the stone bathtubs of hot springs(Tangsil building) are composed of the upper bath which was hot spring water gushes out from the northwest, bends to the east, enters the middle bath, and bends to the south to come out to the outside to gather in the lower bath. Around the stone bathtubs, pebble stones brought in from Taean were laid on the floor of the hot springs(Tangsil building). From the above considerations, the compositions of the Tangsil building in Onyang Temporary Palace is based on the king's approach from the main royal building, the king's bathing method and bathing tools, the bathing behavior of enlisted medical officers and bathing assistants, and each rooms mentioned in "Ongung Repair". By comparing it with Hermann Sander's photo, the architectural compositions of the hot springs(Tangsil building) can be estimated.

This study analyzed image similarity, attribute recognition, and preference by multidimensional scaling. The analyses were carried out by 10 spa destinations (Deoksan, Bugok, Onyang, Yuseong, Suanbo, Bomun, Dongrae, Asan, Dogo, Haeundae) in Korea. The results were as follows: First, according to the analyses of image similarity of spa destinations, 'Haeundae, Dongrae and Bomun,' 'Dogo, Onyang, Asan,' and 'Deoksan, Suanbo, Bugok,' made similar image groups separately. However, Yuseong had different image from the other spa destinations in the above. Second, according to the analyses of attribute recognition of spa destinations, Deoksan and Bugok had more competitive ability in terms of 'the incidental facilities of spa destinations, 'Yuseong, Onyang, Asan, and Dogo' showed high competitiveness in terms of 'accessibility of spa destination' and 'tourism conditions.' Haeundae, Dongrae, and Suanbo had weak competitiveness in terms of 'the accessibility of spa destinations.' Third, according to the analyses of preference about spa destinations based on different job groups, office workers had a preference for Yuseong and Bugok, professional workers for Bomun, the people engaged in the farming, fishing, livestock raising and housewives for Haeundae and Dongrae, government officials, students, factory workers, the people living on a pension for Onyang, Deoksan and Dogo, and the self-employed for Suanbo. In conclusion, according to the analyses of spa destination preference based on different residence groups, residents of Seoul, Incheon, Gyunggi province, Gangwon province, Daejeon, Chungcheong province and Jeolla province had a preference for Yuseong, Suanbo, Onyang, Deoksan, and Asan and the residents of Daegu, Gyungsang province, Busan, Ulsan for Bugok, Bomun, and Haeundae.

Groundwater in small islands is used as main water resource but the overuse of groundwater may cause seawater intrusion and temperature decrease in geothermal wells. This study aimed to characterize the hydrogeology of Maeum-ri area in Seokmo Island of Ganghwagun using long-term monitoring at groundwater wells and geothermal wells. In the monitoring period seasonal water level change, consistent drop or increase of water levels are not detected. The groundwater temperature about 10m below ground surface shows year cycle variation having two to five months difference with ambient temperature cycle. The storativity was calculated by tidal method. The storativity estimated by adapting tidal efficiency factor showed some larger values than that by using tidal time lag. The result suggested that the tidal method assuming several assumptions on aquifer condition may produce broad ranges but the calculated ranges at this application are reasonable. The similar shape of groundwater level change and tidal effects was observed at several wells clustered east-south-east direction which may implicate the distribution of vertical fracture system strongly related with groundwater flow channels. The applied methodology and study results will bc valuable to evaluate optimal pumping rate for the preservation of groundwater resources, and to manage geothermal development.

기후변화의 영향으로 인하여 가뭄의 발생이 잦아지고 그 기간은 늘어나고 있다. 특히 2015년에는 충남 서부 지역에 제한급수가 실시되는 등의 피해가 발생하였으며, 올해에도 일부 지역에 가뭄 피해가 예상되고 있다. 이에 따라 가뭄에 대비하기 위한 방안의 하나로, 해수담수화 및 지하수와 같은 대체 수자원 개발의 요구가 높아지고 있다. 특히 지하수의 경우에는 단기간에 최소한의 비용으로 안전한 용수(用水)를 확보할 수 있다는 측면에서 그 효용성이 높다. 그러나 지하수 역시 지표수와 마찬가지로 한정된 자원이며 생성과정에 상당한 시일이 걸린다는 점을 고려할 때, 그 활용을 위해서는 다음과 같은 정책적 고려가 필요해 보인다. 우리나라 지하수는 개별법에 따라 5개 중앙부처 및 지자체에서 소관업무별로 관리하고 있어, 체계적 관리와 자료의 통합 연계에 어려움이 있다. 또한 기본법 성격을 지닌 "지하수법"에서도 지하수 관리 등에 대해 다른 법률에 특별한 규정이 있는 경우에는 해당 법률에 따르도록 규정하여(법 제4조), 합리적 제도 개선에 한계가 있다. "온천법" 등 타법에 의한 지하수 개발 이용관련 인허가 사항을 "지하수법"으로 일원화하여 기본법으로의 역할을 강화하고, 지역별 사업별 관리는 개별 계획을 수립하도록 하는 등 체계적인 지하수의 개발 보전 정책이 필요하다. 국내 지하수 사용은 주로 관정(管井) 개발을 통해 이루어지는데, 무분별한 신규 관정의 개발은 지하수 고갈, 지반침하(sink hole)와 더불어 지하수의 수질 악화를 야기할 수 있다. 관정 개발의 실패로 발생하는 실패공은 노후 관정 및 폐관정과 더불어 방치되는 경우가 많은데, 오염물질 유입으로 지하수를 오염시키는 주요 원인으로 작용한다. 오염된 지하수는 지표수에 비하여 수질을 복원하는데 오랜 시일과 노력이 필요하므로, 사용하지 않는 불용공(不用孔)을 원상 복구하는 등 지하수의 개발에서 사후조치에 이르기까지의 체계적인 관리가 필요하다. 국토교통부는 지하수에 대한 체계적인 관리를 위해, '지하수 기초조사', '지하수 수위변동 실태조사' 및 '지하수시설 전수조사'를 실시하고 있다. 그런데 지하수 기초조사는 "지하수법" 제5조에 근거하여 1997년부터 실시되고 있으나, 예산 및 인력 부족 등으로 20여년이 지난 지금까지도 조사가 마무리되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 한편 지하수 수위변동 실태조사는 "지하수법" 제17조 등에 근거하여 시행되고 있는 반면, 지하수시설 전수조사는 근거 법률이 마련되어 미비하다. 지하수시설 전수조사는 전국의 모든 관정, 집수정(集水井), 지하댐(underground dam) 등의 지하수 시설을 대상으로 실시되므로, 조사의 방법, 대상, 시행 절차 및 주기 등에 대한 규정 마련을 통해 관련 자료를 지속적으로 보완 관리할 필요가 있다.
