하천으로 유입되는 오염물질은 유수의 흐름에 따라 이송되며 혼합된다. 이러한 오염물질의 해석을 위해서는 확산 또는 분산계수 산정이 필요하다. 오염물질의 거동과 관련된 실험적 연구는 방사선 동위원소와 형광성 물질을 이용하여 수행되어 왔으나, 추적자 실험은 많은 비용 및 인력을 요하며, 고정식으로 설치한 계측장비로부터 수집한 시계열 농도자료만을 이용하여 분석하기 때문에 공간적 분포에 대한 자료 취득은 어렵다는 한계가 있다. 하천의 오염물질을 모니터링하기 위해서는 공간을 이동하는 입자의 관점에서 물리량을 표현하는 Lagrangian 방식보다 특정 위치에서 물리량 변화를 표현하는 Eulerian 방식이 적합하다. 그러나 드론을 활용한 하천원격탐사 연구의 대부분은 이동식 플랫폼으로 활용되어 특정 시간에 공간적 분광특성의 분포 파악이 한정적이며, 동일 지점에서 분광특성의 시간적 변화를 파악할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 면단위를 측정하는 이동식 플랫폼의 한계를 극복하고 하천 모니터링에 적합한 Eulerian 방식을 적용하기 위하여 CCTV 형태의 고정식 초분광촬영 플랫폼을 도입하였다. 본 연구에서는 하천으로 유입되는 오염물질의 거동을 분석하기 위하여 자연하천에서 형광성물질인 Rhodamine WT를 이용하여 추적자 실험을 수행하였으며, 접촉식 센서를 활용한 농도측정과 동시에 드론과 초분광센서를 활용하여 CCTV 형태의 고정식 초분광영상을 획득하였다. 실험결과 도출된 전통적인 방식의 분산계수 산정과 시공간 초분광영상을 활용한 분산계수 산정을 비교하여 오염물질 거동 분석에 초분광영상 활용의 가능성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 드론기반 시공간 초분광영상 기법을 교량이나 기타 하천구조물에 초분광 센서를 설치하여 CCTV형식으로 활용할 경우, 공단이나 하·폐수 처리장 등의 점오염원이 밀집해 있는 지역에 직접 설치하여 화학사고의 감지 및 오염물질의 유출 확인 및 조류, 부유사 등의 다양한 수질항목의 농도 변화 감지가 가능하고, 수심변화 감지로 장기적으로 활용할 경우 특정 지점에서의 하상변동 조사가 가능하다. 또한, 오염물질의 유출 사고 발생 등의 사람이 직접 접근이 불가능한 지역에 드론을 활용하여 초분광센서를 이용한 오염물질 감지가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The construction of a submerged breakwater has become increasing due to their multiple effects on the coastal zone. Recently, marker rocks have been installed on the submerged breakwater to indicate its position to the vessels instead of buoy systems, since a buoy is not only improper for the ocean view, but also its mooring system may be damaged by the impulsive wave force caused by wave breaking on the breakwater. The accurate estimation of wave forces on such rocks is deemed necessary for their stability design. In this study, the characteristics of irregular wave forces acting on a marker rock, which was installed on a submerged breakwater, was investigated on the basis of laboratory experiments. It was revealed that the dimensionless highest one-third wave force tends to decrease with increasing the installation distance of a marker rock from the leading crown edge of a submerged breakwater. Also, the drag and inertia coefficients for irregular wave forces, which were obtained using the Morison equation, were investigated in relation to K.C. number.

토석류는 산지 사면에서 발생하여 지형변화에 큰 영향을 미치는 대표적인 자연재해 중 하나로 국내에서 발생하는 토석류는 홍수, 태풍 등 타 재해에 비하여 상대적으로 매우 짧은 시간에 발생하며, 사후대응이 어려우므로 사전대비가 필수적이다. 토석류로 인한 피해를 효과적으로 대비하기 위해서는 국내의 지질, 지형 그리고 강우에 따라 발생하는 토석류에 대한 보다 체계적인 정밀현장조사를 통한 자료 구축과 이를 분석한 토석류의 발생원인, 이동경로와 침식 및 퇴적에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 최근의 토석류 연구에서는 침식-퇴적 및 연행작용에 의한 효과를 반영한 수치모의 연구들이 있으나, 모형의 검증을 위한 침식-퇴적 거동에 대한 자료는 현재까지 매우 부족한 실정이다. 토석류 발생에 따른 침식-퇴적 거동특성은 그 자체로도 공학적으로 중요한 요소이며, 수치해석 모의에 필요한 매개변수 추정에도 필요한 항목이다. 토석류 모의의 검증자료로 활용될 수 있는 토석류에 대한 실험적 연구는 토석류의 확산 형태 및 확산 길이에 대한 내용이 대부분으로 흐름수로에서의 침식 및 퇴적에 대한 연구는 찾아보기 어려운 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 토석류 발생에 따른 흐름부에서의 침식 및 퇴적에 대한 거동 특성을 분석하기 위하여 함수비, 흐름수로 경사, 상부 붕괴토조의 토사깊이, 흐름수로 침식가능 깊이 등 다양한 조건으로 실내모형실험을 수행하였다. 상부 토조의 토사 함수비가 30~80% 실험에서는 퇴적 현상이 탁월하였고, 100% 이상인 실험에서는 침식 현상이 확연하게 나타나 토사의 함수비가 높아지면 집중호우 등 선행강우로 인한 산지 지역에서 발생되는 토석류 현상과 유사하고, 함수비가 낮으면 토석류(Debris flow)가 아닌 입상유동(Granular flow)으로 보는 것이 적절한 것으로 판단된다. 상부 토조의 함수비를 100% 이상으로 변화하여 침식이 발생한 실험에서 상부 토조의 액화 된 토사는 빠른 속도로 흐름이 진행되면서 함수비와 붕괴 체적이 증가할수록 흐름수로 상류부에 침식이 크게 나타나고, 상류부의 토사를 중류부를 거쳐 하류부까지 연행(Entrainment)하는 것으로 판단된다.

Remarkable development of sand bars is an important characteristic of fluviatile landform of Korea. Their development owes, in one part, to the supply of abundant sandy materials to river valley floor, originated from the weathering of essentially granitic rocks, distributed almost all over the country. It owes, in other part, to river valley disposition presenting many angular sinuosity guided by fracture grid, impeding regular migration of sandy materials along valley floor. Besides, high amplitude of river discharge fluctuation of the country plays is proved to be favorable hydrological factor for the development of the sand bars. The sand bars play important roles in favor of river hydro-ecological environment. They mitigate the amplitude of discharge fluctuation regime. In flood spell, sand grains in the main channel migrate so as to broden wet section. At the spell of low water level, they newly accumulate as to impede rapid stream discharge. Especially high quantity of reserved water in porous space of sand bar is preciously available both for human livelihood and for ecological environment.

최근 자율주행과 관련한 시장의 관심은 기존 자동차 자율주행에서 선박 자율운항으로 자연스럽게 이동하고 있다. 이에 인공지능 및 빅데이터 등과 같은 최근 기술을 선박 자율주행에 적용하는 자율운항선박(MASS: Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship) 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 레이더 및 카메라 등과 같은 센서 정보를 선박 자율운항에 적용하여 다양한 선박 운동 및 정보를 획득하는 연구 기술이 집중되고 있다. 이러한 경향에 따라 IMO(International Maritime Organization)과 같은 국제기구에서도 자율운항선박 표준화 본격 논의로 기술표준 선점 경쟁에 참여하고 있다. 이 중 연안 자율운항선박 개발은 IMO에서 주관하는 무인화 핵심기술로 여겨지고 있어, 기존 대양 항해 기술과 함께 연안 항해에 대한 기술 개발의 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 특히 항만 인근 해역에서는 다수의 선박이 입출항함으로 인해 해상에서의 안전과 물류의 효율화가 요구되기 때문에 고도화된 자율운항 기술개발이 필요하다. 하지만 자율운항선박에서의 상황인식 기술은 탑재된 센서의 제한된 시야각 및 기상조건에 따른 인식률이 떨어지는 문제가 생긴다. 이러한 기술적 한계를 극복하기 위해 육상에 설치된 레이더를 활용하여 선박을 탐지할 수 있는 기술이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 고해상도 육상 레이더를 기반하여 얻어진 레이더 화면상의 물표 정보를 이용해 인공지능 기법에 활용하기 위한 라벨링 자동 생성 방법에 대해 소개한다. 얻어진 물표 정보에 인공지능 기법을 적용하여 선박 길이 정보를 추정하는 기술에 대해 소개한다.

This study developed a model to evaluate the co-benefits and trade-off effects between biodiversity and carbon storage capacity based on the implementation locations of nature-based solutions. The model aims to propose optimal implementation locations by using the conceptual idea of edge effects for carbon storage and connectivity for biodiversity. The co-benefits were considered by simultaneously taking into account two effects rather than a single effect. Trade-off effects were observed among optimal plans through a comparison of benefits. The NSGA-II multi-objective optimization algorithm was utilized, confirming the identification of Pareto-optimal solutions. The implementation patterns of Pareto-optimal solutions for green areas were examined. This study holds significance in proposing optimal locations by evaluating various co-benefits and trade-off effects of nature-based solutions. By advancing models based on this evaluation framework, it is anticipated that the assessment of co-benefits and trade-off effects among various benefits of nature-based solutions, such as climate change mitigation, enhancement of biodiversity, and provision of ecosystem services, can be accomplished.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship of hydrochemistry, geology, fault with occurrence of uranium and radon-222 from the groundwater in the Yeongdong area. In this study, 49 groundwater and 4 surface water samples collected in the study area were collected on two separate occasions. The surface radioactivities were measured at 40 points to know the relationship between the occurrence of uranium in groundwater and surface geology. The chemical composition of groundwater showed three types : $Ca-HCO_3$, $Na-HCO_3$ and $Ca-HCO_3(SO_4,\;NO_3)$. Two groundwater of 49 samples exceeded the maximum contaminant levels of uranium, $30{\mu}g/L$, proposed by the Ministry of Environment of Korea and 11 groundwater of 40 samples for Rn-222 concentrations exceeded the 148 Bq/L maximum contaminant level of US EPA. Most of unsuitable groundwater are located in the geological boundary related with the biotite gneiss and the surface radioactivities of rock samples showed no relationship with groundwater geochemical constituents. The strike-slip fault, Youngdong fault, is $N45^{\circ}E$ direction and the high concentrations of uranium in upper part of fault, consisted of granite and granitic gneiss are detected but in lower part, consisted of metamorphic sedimentary rock are not detected. It suggests that the natural radioactive concentrations are related with the geologic characteristics and the migration and diffusion of natural radioactive materials are affected by the fault.

This research aims at identifying the goshawk's possible and replaceable breeding ground by using the MaxEnt prediction model which has so far been insufficiently used in Korea, and providing evidence to expand possible protection areas for the goshawk's breeding for the future. The field research identified 10 goshawk's nests, and 23 appearance points confirmed during the 3rd round of environmental research were used for analysis. 4 geomorphic, 3 environmental, 7 distance, and 9 weather factors were used as model variables. The final environmental variables were selected through non-parametric verification between appearance and non-appearance coordinates identified by random sampling. The final predictive model (MaxEnt) was structured using 10 factors related to breeding ground and 7 factors related to appearance area selected by statistics verification. According to the results of the study, the factor that affected breeding point structure model the most was temperature seasonality, followed by distance from mixforest, density-class on the forest map and relief energy. The factor that affected appearance point structure model the most was temperature seasonality, followed by distance from rivers and ponds, distance from agricultural land and gradient. The nature of the goshawk's breeding environment and habit to breed inside forests were reflected in this modeling that targets breeding points. The northern central area which is about $189.5 km^2$(2.55 %) is expected to be suitable breeding ground. Large cities such as Cheongju and Chungju are located in the southern part of Chungcheongbuk-do whereas the northern part of Chungcheongbuk-do has evenly distributed forests and farmlands, which helps goshawks have a scope of influence and food source to breed. Appearance point modeling predicted an area of $3,071 km^2$(41.38 %) showing a wider ranging habitat than that of the breeding point modeling due to some limitations such as limited moving observation and non-consideration of seasonal changes. When targeting the breeding points, a specific predictive area can be deduced but it is difficult to check the points of nests and it is impossible to reflect the goshawk's behavioral area. On the other hand, when targeting appearance points, a wider ranging area can be covered but it is less accurate compared to predictive breeding point since simple movements and constant use status are not reflected. However, with these results, the goshawk's habitat can be predicted with reasonable accuracy. In particular, it is necessary to apply precise predictive breeding area data based on habitat modeling results when enforcing an environmental evaluation or establishing a development plan.

Polyploids are a potentially important germplasm source in seedless citrus breeding program. Seedlessness is one of the most promising traits of commercial mandarin breeds that mandarin triploid hybrids possess permanently. The formation of new constant triploid hybrids can be recovered through diploid species hybridization from the fusion of divalent gametes at low frequencyor intra-and inter-ploidy crosses. However, extensive breeding work based on small $F_1$ hybrid seeds developed is impossible without a very effective aseptic methodology and ploidy event. In this study, in vitro embryo culture was employed to recover natural hybrids from monoembryonic diploid, open-pollinated mandarin. Flow cytometry was used to determine ploidy level. A total of 10,289 seeds were extracted from 792 fruits having approximately 13 seeds per fruit. Average frequency of small seeds developed was 7.1%, while the average frequency of small seeds per fruit were: 8.9% for 'Clementine' 10.2% for 'Harehime' 2.6% for 'Kamja' 3.1% for 'Pyunkyool' 2.8% for 'Sadookam' and 7.0% for 'Wilking' mandarin. Average size of a perfect seed was $49.52{\pm}0.07mm^2$ ('Clementine') while the small seed measured $7.95{\pm}0.04mm^2$ ('Clementine'), which was about 1/6 smaller than the perfect seed. In total, 731 small seeds were obtained and all of them contained only one embryo per seed. The efficiency of 'Clementine' was 14 times higher than 'Wilking' and more than 109 times higher than 'Pyunkyool'. The basic information on spontaneous polyploidy provides for the hybridization of constant triploids and increases the efficiency of conventional cross.

The soil samples were collected from the paddy field near the mine tailing dumps in the abandoned Duckum mine in Korea. In the laboratory, the soil solution was extracted from the soil using centrifuge, and analysed for the chemical composition. Physical and chemical soil properties were also analysed. Kaolinite is the main clay minerals in the paddy soil and the CEC value is therefore relatively low. Nearly all soil samples show enrichment in their trace elemental concentrations(Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn) compared with natural background level. Some soil samples exceed the soil remediation intervention values for Cd, Pb and Zn and target value for Cu, when compared with Dutch standard, whereas As, Ni and Cr are in normal range. Lead concentrations in some samples near the mine tailing dumps also exceed the standard for remediation act for agricultural area set by Korean soil conservation law. The trace elemental concentrations are higher in the paddy soil nearer the mine tailing dumps and lower for the samples from distance. Similar trend with distance is found for the soil solution chemistry but the decrease with distance from the mine tailing dumps are sharper than the changes in soil chemistry. Cadmium, Cu and Pb concentrations in the soil solution are very low, ranging from a tenth and hundredths to a maximum of several mg/l, whereas their concentrations in soils are highly enriched for natural background. Most of the trace elements are thought to be either removed by reduced iron sulphides or iron oxides, depending on the redox changes. Geochemical equilibrium modelling indicate the presence of solubility controlling solid phases for Cd and Pb, whereas Zn and Cu might have been controlled by adsorption/desorption processes. Although pollutants migration through solution phase are thought to be limited by adsorption onto various Fe, Mn solid phases, the pollutants exist as easily releasable fractions such as exchangeable site. In this case, the paddy soil would act as pollutant pool, which will supply to plants in situ. whenever the geochemical conditions favour.
