The drainage area of the Miho stream is composed of granitic basins, gneissic and sedimentary mountains. 80 percent of the Miho stream flows through the Jincheon basin and the Cheongju inner-plain within the Daebo granite belt. Because the deep weathering of granitic hills provides a large amount of sands to the streams, there are wide floodplains with thick alluvium developed in the basin and plain. The thickness of the alluvium is 5~10m and the width of the floodplains is 2~2.5km. In the basin outlet area where a stream passes through the mountain canyon, wide floodplains and deep alluvium are developed in other riverside. The Miho stream is a sand-gravel channel flowing through the Cheongju inner-plain with wide floodplains and deep alluvium formed by deep weathering of granite.

The paleovegetation environments relevant to the geomorphic properties were constructed by pollen analysis in the coastal dune (S1) and marginal trench (S4) of Ssangho at the Osan-ri site. The organic sand layer in the coastal dune (S1) accumulated on the remains of the Neolithic Age correlates to approximately 4,000 yr BP and the pollen zone can be divided with a boundary of approximately 2,000 yr BP. Pinus thunbergii definitely dominated and a small quantity of Quercus. Pollenzone I can be characterized by the dominance of AP and Compositae. The pollenzone II as the dominant period of NAP like Gramineae, Artemisia and Fagopyrum shows the properties of agricultural period. During the times of accumulation of upper organic layer in alluvial plain (S4), broad-leaved trees such as Alnus were dominant and Compositae, Gramineae, Artemisia, Typha, Umbelliferae and Persicaria show the high occurrence rates. The pollen composition of S4 indicates the agricultural activities with the dominance of NAP and correlates to the pollenzone II of the coastal dune (S1).

It is important to understand the complex, various migration features of the alluvial channels for river engineering. In this study, the morphological changes and migration features of alluvial channels were investigated by analyzing the aerial photographs of active channels between 1972 and 2004 in Hapyeong Intake Station, Nakdong river. The lower channels were migrated from left bank to right bank and showed the features of braided channel in 2004. The instability of lower channels was increased due to the increased channel slope and width. The sinuosity of lower channels was decreased with time. As time increased, the increasing rate of lower channel and lateral migration rate were decreased. As a result of meso-scale regime analysis by using bankfull discharge, multiple row bars were developed, and suspended sediment load was governed in the flow as a sand bed channel.

지석천 중하류는 영산강의 제1지류로서 전라남도의 화순을 가로지르는 국가하천 구간이다. 이 구간(대초천 합류점${\sim}$화순천합류점)의 하천경사는 약 1/640 이며, 하천주변에는 충적평야가 발달해 있다. 이와 같은 하도의 하상재료는 자갈/모래의 혼합사가 분포하는 것이 일반적인 특성이지만, 2005년 현재 선격자법에 의한 조사결과 평균입경$(d_{50})$은 8cm 전후의 작은호박돌/매우굵은자갈로 구성되어 있는 특이성을 보이고 있다. 문헌에 따르면 1978년 하상재료의 평균입경은 $1.59{\sim}2.23cm$로서 20여년동안 하상재료는 매우 조립화되고, 하상은 장갑화되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 현상은 지석천 유역의 농업화와 도시화에 따른 하도정비 및 유황의 변화에 기인한 것으로 여겨진다. 본 연구에서는 항공사진 분석 및 현장조사를 통하여 하천지형학적 변화와 사주의 식생피복상태의 변화에 대한 분석을 수행하여 하도특성변화를 정량적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 결과적으로 지석천에서 하천의 역동성이 크게 감소함으로써 다지형(망상) 하도로 하도선형이 변화하고, 식생사주의 면적이 확대되었으며, 하상저하가 발생함을 확인하였다.

한 지점의 수문 반응을 결정짓는 주요 인자 중의 하나는 유역의 형상과 유역 내 하계망 구조이다. 유역의 형상과 하계망 구조는 지질시간 규모에 걸쳐 서서히 형성된 것으로, 주로 지반운동, 암석 및 지질구조, 그리고 이에 대응하는 지표 침식 정도에 의해 결정된다. 따라서, 암석 및 지질구조가 균질하다면, 유역의 특성은 지반운동과 지표 침식에 의해 좌우될 것이다. 본 연구는 지반운동의 시간적인 분포가 서로 다른 조건일 때 유역 특성이 각각 어떠한지를 수치지형발달모형(numerical landscape evolution model)을 이용한 모의실험을 통해 이론적으로 탐색해보았다. 구체적으로 모의 기간 동안의 총 지반융기량은 동일하더라도, 융기율이 전 기간동안 동일한 조건, 융기율이 특정 시점에 집중되는 조건, 그리고 융기율이 높았던 때와 낮았던 때가 반복되는 조건 등 세가지 시나리오를 실험하였다. 각 조건에 대해, 유역 형상과 하계망 구조는 어떻게 형성되는지를 살펴본 것이다. 모의결과 유역의 형태와 하계망 구조는 총융기량보다는 융기율의 시간 분포에 결정적인 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 융기율의 시간분포는 유역의 전반적인 경사(하천 종단의 요형도)와 충적하상 및 기반암하상 하도의 분포 등에 큰 영향을 주었다.

To investigate geomorphic development of alluvial plains and climatic environment change during the late Holocene carbon dating, soil organic carbon analysis and humus analysis of sediments from alluvial plain of Hampyeongcheon basin were performed. The lowest peat layer was formed under warm and humid climates, which is considered to correspond to the Atlantic period in the Holocene. Yellowish brown sandy clay layer was deposited in the natural levee, which we think were deposited in the generally warm and dry climates. The carbon dating age is 1,879-1,532 BC, and this period correspond to the Sub-boreal period in the Holocene. Light brown clay layer is assumed to have been deposited in transitional environment from the natural levee to the back marsh. The climatic environment was warm and humid, which is considered as transitional period from the Sub-boreal to the Sub-Atlantic in the Holocene. Light yellowish brown and light brown clay layer of the upper part are regarded as sediments of the back marsh. Light yellowish brown clay layer was deposited in the cold and dry climates, which is considered to correspond to the Sub-Atlantic period in the Holocene. Light brown clay layer was deposited in the warm and dry climates. The carbon dating age is 211-427 AD, this period corresponds to the Post Roman Warm Period in the Holocene.

The principal component analysis was performed to identify the general characteristics of groundwater level changes from 202 deep and 112 shallow wells monitoring data, respectively, which came from the National Groundwater Monitoring Stations operated by KWATER with time spans of 156 continuous weeks from 2003 to 2005. Eight principal components, which accounted for 80% of the variability of the original time series, were extracted for water levels of shallow and deep monitoring wells. As a result of cluster analysis using the loading value of three principal components for shallow wells, shallow monitoring wells were divided into 3 groups which were characterized with a response time to rainfall (Group 1: 4.6 days, Group 2: 24.1 days, Group 3: 1.4 days), average long-term trend of water level (Group 1: $2.05{\times}10^{-4}$ m/day, Group 2: $-7.85{\times}10^{-4}$ m/day, Group 3: $-3.51{\times}10^{-5}$ m/day) and water level difference (Group 1 < Group 2 < Group 3). Additionally, they showed significant differences according to a distance to the nearest stream from well (Group 3 < Group 2 < Group 1), topographic slope of well site (Group 3: plain region, Group 1: mountainous region) and groundwater recharge rate (Group 3 < Group 2 < Group 1) with a p-value of 0.05.

We attempt to classifing method of micro-landform on the alluvial plain, such as natural-levee, backmarsh and alluvial fan, using false color composite of Landsat Thematic Mapper image. The study area is Kumho River Basin on the southeastern part of Korea peninsula. The most effective image for micro-landform classification is the false color composite of band 2, 3 and 4 with blue, green and red filtering. The most favorable time is the middle third of November, because of the density differentiation of green vegetation in most great. In this time the paddy field on the back-marsh is bare by rice harvesting. But on the natural levee the green vegetation, such as vegetables and lower herbs under fruit tree, remain relatively more. On the alluvial fan, the green vegetation condition is medium. For the verification of the micro-landform classification, we employed the field survey and grain size analysis of the deposition of each micro-landform on the sample area. It is clarified that the classification method of micro-landform on the alluvial plain using the Landsat TM image is relatively useful.

연구지역은 좁은 면적에 비하여 800m 이상의 지형기복을 보이며, 계곡과 하천 충적층을 따라 마을이 발달된 전형적인 수계 상류의 농촌지역이다. 주요 상수원은 천부지하수이며, 농업용으로는 하천수를 이용한다. 지표수는 연구지역의 소유역(A, B)간 계절별 수질차이를 보이나, 지하수의 경우 유역간 및 계절별 변동이 상대적으로 작게 나타난다. B 소유역의 하류부에서는 지질매체의 영향으로 보이는 Fe, Mn, Zn 농도의 부화현상이 나타났으며, 이는 방이리층과 길왕리층을 기반암으로 하는 지역에 대한 전체적인 지하수질 조사가 필요함을 지시한다. 국지적인 수질오염원으로 과거에 개발되었던 폐금광이 존재하며, 이로 인한 산성수의 발생도 인지되었다.

Unsan alluvial plain is the backmarsh of Seomseokcheon which is a river originated from Chilseongdae(954m) on Mts Taeback, flowing into Donghae in southern Kangreung City, Kangwon Province. The vegetation change, geomorphic develoopment and depositional environment during the late Holocene have been investigated, using the methods such as boring, pollen analysis and radiocarbon dating. Because the deposits fo the study area are mainly consisted of peat and paety sand, they contained many pollen fossils. The peat layer has been sedimented since the high sea-level periods, 3,200 y. BP, and the records of vegetation change until now has well preserved here. According to archeological researches and the results of pollen analysis in east coast of Korea, it is supposed that the prehistoric rice farming in this area has begun since ca. 1,800 y. BP.
