This study was carried out to investigate the chemical properties of rainwater in Taean area. The rainwater way collected for six months from May to Octotber in 1998, and analyzed its chemical composition. The ion balance and electric conductivity balance showed confidence to chemical analyses of rainwater. Distribution rates of pH of rainwater in Taean area were 43% and 38% in the range of pH $4.5{\sim}5.0$ and $5.0{\sim}5.6$, respectively. Among the 1mm fraction for initial 5mm of rainfall, ion concentration of initial rainwater (less than 1mm of rain) was higher than those of the later terms. The major ions in rainwater were $NH_4\;^+$ and $Ca_2\;^+$ for cations, and $SO_4\;^{2-}$ and $NO_3\;^-$ for anions. The pH value of rainwater showed the lowest level of 4.3 in August. The ratio of non-sea salt $SO_4\;^{2-}$ to $NO_3\;^-$ was 2.4.

Despite frequent freezing injury to tea trees due low temperature, drought, and strong wind during wintertime, no comprehensive measurements have been taken. We selected and examined 9 locations in Hwagae-myeon and 4 places in Agyang-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeonsanggnam-do where low temperature damage had occurred between December 2010 and February 2011. Our objective is to examine the effect of frost damage on the morphological symptom and harvest of a tea tree exposed to a constant low temperature environment during wintertime. The results of our analyses on meteorological environment, tea leaf chromaticity, water content and trypan blue are as follows: (1) the number of days with temperature of $-10^{\circ}C$ or less, which were subject to frost damage to a tea tree were 8 and 13.6% during the winterization period in 2011; (2) the accumulated time was 1,308 minutes, and the longest duration at $-10^{\circ}C$ was 588 minutes from 21:08 p.m. 15 January to 7:30 a.m. $16^{th}$ January. The rainfall was only 104 mm which was 306 mm less than the previous year; (3) the lightness L values in 2011 were higher than in 2012 due to dehydration and necrosis by blue discoloration and red discoloration at all areas in chromaticity measurement; (4) the water content in a tea leaf in 2011 was higher than in 2012 due to low rainfall and strong wind, and almost no cell death phenomenon was observed from normal tea leaves subject to no low temperature stress in a trypan blue analysis; and (5) partial coloration due to cell death, however, took place in the leaves damaged by blue discoloration subject to low temperature stress, and most coloration due to cell death took place in the leaves damaged by red discoloration.

강원도 홍천군 내면에 위치한 비점오염 관리지역의 강우시 유출 특성을 파악하고, 비교하기위해 연구를 수행하였다. 2009년 6월부터 2009년 11월까지의 연구기간 중 강우량이 비교적 많은 7회의 강우사상에 대하여 단위면적당 유출량, 유량가중평균농도, 단위면적당 오염부하를 비교하며, 분석하였다. 강우사상별 단위면적당 총 유출량은 저감시설의 설치 유 무에 따라 명확한 경향이 나타나지 않았다. 자운천 유역의 SS, TP의 유량 가중평균농도는 각각 4.0~1440.4 mg/L와 0.024~0.267 mg/L의 범위로 나타났으며, 덕두원 유역의 SS, TP의 유량가중평균농도는 각각 6.2~1001.1 mg/L, 0.039~0.226 mg/L의 범위로 나타났다. 지령골 유역의 SS, TP의 유량가중평균농도는 각각 3.4~1050.6 mg/L, 0.08~0.342 mg/L의 범위로 조사되었다. 10차, 11차, 12차, 26차의 SS 항목에서는 비점오염 저감시설이 설치된 자운천과 덕두원 유역에 비해 다소 높은 것으로 나타났으며, TP는 대부분의 강우사상에서 지령골의 유량가중평균농도가 높았다. 자운천의 강우사상에 따른 SS의 단위면적당 오염부하는 0.24~1,397.85 kg/ha의 범위로 나타났으며, 덕두원과 지령골에서 산정된 SS의 단위면적당 오염부하는 각각 0.06~1,236.78 kg/ha와 0.29~894.81 kg/ha로서 8차와 9차 강우사상을 제외한 나머지 강우사상에서는 비점오염 저감시설이 설치되지 않은 지령골에서 더 많은 양이 발생하였다. TP의 경우 자운천과 덕두원 유역의 단위면적당 TP 오염부하는 각각 0.0006~0.33 kg/ha와 0.0005~0.21 kg/ha의 범위로 나타났으며, 지령골 유역의 강우사상에 따른 단위면적당 오염부하는 0.003~0.29 kg/ha의 범위로서 저감시설이 설치된 자운천과 덕두원 유역보다 높게 나타났다. 단위면적당 오염부하에 기초할 때, 비점오염 저감시설이 설치된 소유역에서 SS와 TP 항목에 대한 저감효과가 나타났다. 하지만 짧은 모니터링 기간과 자료의 부족으로 인해 비교 및 분석의 한계가 있다고 판단된다. 본 연구는 지속적인 모니터링으로 더 많은 자료가 확보될 때 비점오염 저감사업의 효과를 극대화시킬 수 있는 방안을 제시 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

합류식 하수도는 오수와 우수를 동시에 배제하는 하수관거 시스템으로 시공이 쉽고 건설비용이 저렴한 반면에 강우시 차집되지 않고 월류되는 유출량으로 인해 수체에 악영향을 초래한다. 관거에서 유출되는 유출수는 강우 초기에 유역에서 집중적으로 유출되는 비점오염원과 하수 및 관거내 오염물질 등을 동반하여 수질 개선을 어렵게 하고 수질 악화를 가중시킨다. 본 연구에서는 기존 유역에 설치된 합류식 하수관거를 분류식으로 개선하고 강우시 초기 세척에 의해 유입하는 비점오염원을 삭감하기 위한 초기우수 처리시설 설치에 따른 M 저수지 수질개선 효과를 수치모델을 사용하여 모의하였다. 저수지의 수질예측은 횡방향 평균 2차원 저수지 수리 및 수질모델인 CE-QUAL-W2를 사용하였다. 저수지 유입량은 군산기상대에서 관측한 일별 강우량 자료를 이용하여 일별 유출량을 산정하였고, 댐 방류량 자료는 M저수지의 2006년 일별 관측수위를 이용하여 유입량과 수위-체적 곡선으로부터 산정하였다. 모델의 보정은 2005년 5월과 8월에 측정한 수질자료를 이용하여 수행하였으며, 저수지의 관측값과 모의결과는 저수지 중앙부 대표지점에서 이루어졌으며, 모델은 관측값을 잘 반영하였다. 모의 결과 M 저수지의 연평균 BOD농도는 합류식(1.25 mg/L)에 비해 분류식 하수 관거(0.91 mg/L)를 도입할 경우 27.2% 개선되었으며, 초기우수 처리시설(0.84 mg/L)을 추가 할 경우 32.8%까지 개선효과가 상승하였다. 기존 합류식 하수관거의 경우 연간 유출부하량은 7,713 kg/yr이었으며, 분류식으로 전환할 경우 2,256 kg/yr, 초기우수처리시설을 추가할 경우 902 kg/yr로 삭감되는 것으로 예측되었다. 분류식하수관거와 초기우수처리를 모두 이행할 경우, BOD와 COD 기준이 호수 수질 기준 II등급 이내로 유지되며, T-P 농도는 0.02mg/L 이하로 유지되어 6월 이후 여름철에 저수지내 조류성장 억제에 효과가 클 것으로 예측되었다. 하수관거 정비사업을 통해 M 저수지는 기존의 농업용 저수지의 목표수질뿐만 아니라, 친수공간으로써 적합한 II등급 수질을 유지할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

The heavy strom of July 26-28, 1996, which occurred over the Northern Kyungi Province and Western Kangwon Province, is analyzed to investigate the hydrometeorological characteristics and frequency of occurrences of the storm. The study region is limited to the watershed area of Hantan River on which the partially destructed Yeonchon Dam is located. Hourly rainfall data at 21 rain gauging stations in and near the Hantan river basin are collected and the cumulative rainfall mass curves constructed and compared each other to judge the credibility and consistency of rainfall data at nearby stations. In order to analyze the spatially moving characteristics of rain storm the isochrones based on real time are constructed using the several fixed-percentage cumulative rainfalls at the stations. The basin average rainfalls of various durations are computed for Yeonchon dam and the return period of July/1996 storm are evaluated based on the rainfall frequency curves at Cheolwon and Yeonchon rain gauging stations. A comparison is also made between the July/1996 storm and PMP of the region, which demonstrated the severity of the heavy storm.

To assess the effect of environmental factors on the sustainability of cultured production shellfish, we investigated the habitat characteristics of tidal flat (Namhae-po in Taean). We measured the physiochemical parameters (temperature, salanity, pH, dissolved oxygen and nutrients) and the geochemical characteristics (chemical oxygen demand, ignition loss, C/N ratio and C/S ratio). Surface sediments were collected from several site of tidal flat to examine the geochemical characteristics of both the benthic environment and heavy metal pollution. The grain size for research area of tidal flat were similar at the ratio of silt and clay in comparison with the other site of it. The C/N ratio was more than 5.0, reflecting the range arising from the mix of marine organism and organic matter. The C/S ratio (about 2.8) showed that survey area had anoxic or sub-anoxic bottom conditions. The enrichment factor (Ef) and index of accumulation rate (Igeo) of the metals showed that those research areas can be classified as heavily polluted, heavily to moderately polluted, or more or less unpolluted, respectively. Adult surf clam (Mactra veneriformis) density was highest at St. 2 (middle part of the Namhae-po), on the other hand, surf clam spat density was highest at St. 3 (lower part of the Namhae-po). Heavy rain, terrigenous suspended clay with fresh water from neighboring agricultural land, and severe high air temperature during summer could be thought as detrimental causes of spat and adult mortality in Namhae-po tidal flat. We suggested that the growth of shellfish in the tidal flat was effected by the various environmental conditions, so an improvement in the cultured method was needed.

BACKGROUND: This experiment was conducted to investigate the distribution and burden characteristics of heavy metal in the rainwater sampled at Taean area, in the middle part of Korea, from April 2002 to October 2003. METHODS AND RESULTS: The relationship between concentration of heavy metal and other chemical properties in the rainwaters was also evaluated. Chemical properties in the rainwater were various differences with raining periods and years. It appeared that a weighted average pH values of rainwater was ranged from 5.0 to 5.1. Heavy metal concentrations in the rainwater were ranked as Pb > Zn > Cu > Ni > As > Cr > Cd. As compared with heavy metal concentrations of rainwater in 2002, Cu, Pb, and Zn were higher than other elements in 2003. There were positive correlation between major ionic components, such as ${NH_4}^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $K^+$, $Na^+$, ${SO_4}^{2-}$ and ${NO_3}^-$, and As, Cd, Zn, Cr, and Ni concentrations in rainwater. For heavy metal distribution of rainwater, the order of average enrichment factor was Cd > Pb > As > Cu > Zn > Ni > Cr, and these were relatively higher than the natural components such as Fe, Mg and Ca. The monthly enrichment factor were relatively high, from August to October at Taean. The monthly amount of heavy metal precipitation was high in the rainy season from July to August because of great influence of rainfall. CONCLUSION(s): The results of this study suggest that the heavy metals(Cd, Pb, As, Cu, and Zn) of rainwater is strongly influenced by anthropogenic sources rather than natural sources.

The relationships between pine mushroom emergence and meteorological factors were analyzed with three years (from 2003 to 2005) of measurement data at Yangyang site, in order to evaluate the effect of micrometeorological environment on pine mushroom production. fine mushroom was daily monitored and collected in the survey area during the its producing period (approximately one month). Pine mushroom production was highest in 2005 with the meteorological conditions of high temperature and frequent rainfalls in October. The production was lowest in 2004 due to dry conditions from mid September to late October, The meterological factors related to humidity (i.e., relative humidity, soil water content, and precipitation) were better correlated than those related to temperature (i.e., air and soil temperature, soil heat flux and solar radiation) with pine mushroom production. However, all of the correlation coefficients were statistically insignificant with values ranging from 0.15 to 0.46. Such poor correlations may be attributed to various other environmental conditions (e.g., topography, soil, vegetation, other fungi, the relationship between pine mushroom and pine forest) affecting pine mushroom production. We found that a mycelium requires a stimulation of low temperature (of three-day moving average) below $19.5^{\circ}C$, in order to farm a mushroom primordium which grows to pine mushroom after 16 days from the stimulation. We also found that the pine mushroom production ended when the soil temperature (of three-day moving average) fell below $14.0^{\circ}C$.

As a series of studies on the behaviour of Pine gallmidge (Theccdiplosis japonensis Uehida ei Inoaye), the season of the larval hibernation in winter as well as the season of the attack of adults on pine needles in the vicinity of Seoul were observed, and following results were obtained. 1. The larvae get out of the galls and fall into the ground for the hibernation commencing from the end of September and finishing by the end of January of the next year. 2. About 76% of the whole larvae fell down during the month of November. 3. The frequency and the duration of raining mainly influenced the larval falling into the ground but temperature, humidity and the quantity of rainfall was not likely influence upon it. 4. As many as 47,000 larvae were counted per 1.5 square meter of the ground under the crown of the damaged trees. 5. When pine needles were isolated by fine linen-net-bag to keep the needles from the oviposition of the adults of the insect, at six different season; -i.e. 30th, May, 6th, 10th, 15th, 25th, and 30th June, the percentages of the damage were 80%, 50%, 36%, 19%, 20% and 1% respectively, while the damage of the control was 91%.

Based on monthly average groundwater recharge over a nearly 10 year period, results of fully integrated hydrologic modeling of SWAT-MODFLOW, land cover, land use, soil type and hydrologic response unit (HRU) was used to assess the dominant influencing factors of groundwater recharge spatial patterns in Jangseong district. As dominant factors, land cover was FRSE (forest-evergreen) and soil type was Samgag. Landsat-8 OLI imaging spectrometer data were acquired in the period 2003 to 2004 and seasonal bare soil lines (BSL) were estimated through NIR-RED plot. Extent of slope of BSL was from 1.092 to 1.343 and the intercept was from -0.004 to -0.015. To know correlation between spatial groundwater recharge and soil-vegetation indices (PVI, NDVI, NDTI, NDRI), this study employed frequency and regression analysis. On May, RED band increased up 3 to 4 times compared to other seasons and only one turning point appeared as recharge-index with upward parabola bell shape as results of existing research. Considering precipitation, if the various studies for relationship between groundwater recharge and soil-vegetation index just like NDVI are performed, it is possible to estimate groundwater recharge through analyzing remote sensing data.
