Time Domain Reflectometry with multiplex system has been installed to configure the spatial and temporal characteristics of soil moisture in a mountainous hillslope. An intensive surveying was performed to build a refined digital elevation model and flow determination algorithms with inverse surveying have been applied to establish an efficient soil monitoring system. Steady state wetness index, quasi-dynamic wetness index and fully dynamic wetness index have been calculated. Continuous monitoring of soil moisture data were analyized with wetness indices. Limitations and hydrological interpretations of this approach have beer discussed.

최근 급증하는 이상기후 등으로 인하여, 가뭄 및 홍수 등의 자연재해가 반복적으로 발생하는 등 수자원관리에 어려움이 증대되고 있다. 본 연구는 토양수분량, 강우량, 수위관측 및 증발산량 관측이 수행되고 있는 용담-구량천 유역을 대상으로, PDM 토양저류 함수 모형을 습윤(6월~9월) 및 건조(10월~5월)기로 분리 적용하여 기간에 따른 유역 유출 특성을 분석하였다. 습윤 및 건조기의 유출률(유량/총강우량)은 각각 0.61~0.65와 0.31~0.42으로 서로 다른 유출 특성을 나타내고 있다. 2014~2015년 유역의 관측 토양 수분 자료(심도 100~200mm)와 PDM 토양저류 함수를 활용한 모의 결과가 습윤기에서 유사한 경향성을 보이고 있다(R2=0.9). 이를 바탕으로 용담-구량천 유역의 토양 저류 및 유출 특성을 분석한 결과, 기간을 습윤기 및 건조기로 분리하여 각각의 유역 유출 모형을 구축하는 것이 필요하다고 판단된다. 향후 단기 홍수 사상의 분석을 통한 홍수 유출 및 토양 저류 분석을 위한 모형을 제시하고자 한다.

연구지역은 경남 양산시 상북면 삼삼리 일원으로 양산단층과 인접하며 급한 경사의 자연사면으로 이루어져 있다. 수치지형자료를 이용하여 고도값을 갖는 자료층을 추출한 후 10m$\times$10m 크기의 격자별로 DEM으로 변환하고, 이로부터 단위 격자의 경사도, 경사방향도, 음영도를 작성하고 흐름분배 알고리즘을 이용하여 설정된 격자별로 상부사면의 기여면적과 습윤지수를 산정하였다. 높은 습윤지수를 보이는 지역은 북서-남동 방향의 선형구조로 나타나며, 국소지역의 전단단열 특성과 일치한다. 한편 연구지역에서 전기비저항 탐사를 실시하여 높은 습윤지수를 나타내는 지역과 저비저항 이상대의 분포를 비교한 결과 습윤지수가 높은 지역은 모두 낮은 전기비저항 이상대로 관찰된다. 즉 습윤지수는 암석의 화학적 풍화를 수반하는 파쇄대의 분포와 일치하며 이를 토대로 국소지역에서 파쇄대의 예측과 암석의 안정성을 예측하는 방법으로 이용될 수 있다.

Horton 지수는 유역에 대한 수문순환의 특성을 정량화하는 지수로서 유역의 습윤량과 기화량의 비로 산출된다. 습윤량과 기화량은 토양 수분과 밀접한 관계를 가지므로 추계학적 거동에 따른 토양수분의 동역학모형을 파악하여 Horton 지수를 산출할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 추계학적인 토양수분수지 모형을 이용하여 서울, 부산, 대구, 제주 지역을 대상으로 30년간 일 기상자료(강우량, 일 평균기온, 풍속, 상대습도, 일조시간)을 이용하여 Horton 지수를 각각 산출하였으며 Horton 지수에 대한 변동성 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 모든 대상 유역에서 기후의 계절성에 의하여 Horton 지수가 작아짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 하지만 습윤한 기후를 가진 서울과 건조한 기후를 가진 대구에서는 각각 연 강우량이 많거나 연 강우량이 적은 해에 Horton 지수에 미치는 기후의 계절성의 영향력이 줄어듦을 살펴볼 수 있었다.

Removal efficiencies for diesel fuel and diesel hydrocarbons ($C_10$∼$C_22$) using microwave-enhanced SVE process were evaluated with dry and moist soil, respectively. Diesel removal rates of microwave-enhanced SVE process were 7 times for dry soil and 1580 times for moist soil as great as those of the SVE process without microwave heating. High dielectric property of water contents may accelerate the absorption of microwave energy into soil and thus vaporized the diesel fuel components drastically. The diesel removals were 67.7∼78.4% for $C_10$ and $C_12$, and 0∼18.5% for $C_14$∼$C_22$ for dry and moist soil with SVE process only. On the other hand, dry soil with microwave-enhanced SVE process showed 89.3∼99.4% removal for $C_10$ to and $C_12$ and 35.6∼67.0% for hydrocarbons over $C_14$. All hydrocarbons ($C_10$∼$C_22$) studied were significantly removed (93.6∼99.8%) for moist soil with microwave-enhanced SVE process.

Soil moisture is one of the most important interests in hydrological response and the interaction between the land surface and atmosphere. Estimation of Antecedent Wetness Conditions (AWC) which is soil moisture condition prior to a rainfall in the basin should be considered for rainfall-runoff prediction. In this study, Soil Wetness Index (SWI), Antecedent Precipitation Index ($API_5$), remotely sensed Soil Moisture ($SM_{rs}$), and 5 days ground Soil Moisture ($SM_{g5}$) were selected to estimate the AWC at four study area in the Korean Peninsula. The remotely sensed soil moisture data were taken from the AMSR-E soil moisture archive. The maximum potential retention ($S_{obs}$) was obtained from direct runoff and rainfall using Soil Conservation Service-Curve Number (SCS-CN) method by rainfall data of 2011 for each study area. Results showed the great correlations between the maximum potential retention and SWI with a mean correlation coefficient which is equal to -0.73. The results of time length representing the time scale of soil moisture showed a gap from region to region. It was due to the differences of soil types and the characteristics of study area. Since the remotely sensed soil moisture has been proved as reasonable hydrological variables to predict a wetness in the basin, it should be continuously monitored.

Formulation of quasi-dynamic wetness index was derived to predict the spatial and temporal distribution of the soil moisture. The algorithm of dynamic wetness index was developed through introducing the convolution integral with the rainfall input. The spatial and temporal behaviors of the wetness index of the Sulmachun Watershed was calculated using the digital elevation model(DEM) and the rainfall data for two years. The spatial distribution of the dynamic wetness index shows most dispersive feature of flow generation among the three assumptions of steady, quasi-dynamic and dynamic. The statistical distribution of the quasi-dynamic wetness index and the dynamic wetness index approximate to the steady state wetness index as the time step is increased. The dynamic wetness index shows mixed distribution of the normalized probability density function.

A simplified model for higher order scanning curves in the soil water characteristic function is suggested. The conceptual hysteresis models developed by $Mualem_{8,9}$ are simplied for higher order scanning curves. Higher order drying curves are regarded as primary drying curves and the last wetting reversal point is assumed to be on the main wetting curve by moving that point vertically downward. For the higher order wetting curves, it is assumed that these curves can be regarded as primary curves and the last wetting reversal point sits on the imaginary main drying curve which passes through the last wetting reversal point. The water content computed from the simplified model are compared with those obtained from Mualem's original model for second order scanning curves. It is found that absolute differences between the two methods aree relatively small and the simplified model always underestimates for higher order drying curves while it overestimates for higher order wetting curves. Hence, those two tend to compensate each other for repeated drying-wetting processes. The simplified model approximates higher order scanning curves well and reduces computation considerably.

Inland wetlands in the Republic of Korea provide key breeding and wintering habitats, while coastal wetlands provide nutrient-rich habitats for stopover sites for East Asia/Australasia Flyway(EAAF) migrants. However, since the 1960's, Korea has reclaimed these coastal wetlands gradually for agriculture and urban expansion. The habitat loss has rippled across global populations of migrant shorebirds in EAAF. To protect a similar loss, the United States, specifically Missouri, developed the moist-soil management technique. Wetland impoundments are constructed from levees with water-flow control gates with specific soils, topography, available water sources, and target goals. The impoundments are subjected to a combination of carefully timed and regulated flooding and drawdown regimes with occasional soil disturbance. This serves a dual purpose of removing undesirable vegetation, while maximizing habitat and forage for wildlife. Flooding and drawdown schedules must be dynamic with constantly shifting climate conditions. Korea's latitude ($N33^{\circ}25^{\prime}{\sim}N38^{\circ}37^{\prime}$) is comparable to Missouri ($N36^{\circ}69^{\prime}{\sim}N40^{\circ}41^{\prime}$); as such, moist-soil management could prove to be an effective wetland restoration technique for Korea. In order to meet specific conservation goals (i.e. shorebird staging site restoration), it is necessary to test the proposed methodology on a site that can meet the required specifications for moist-soil management. Moist-soil management has the potential to not only create key habitat for endangered wildlife, but also provide valuable ecosystem services, including water filtration.

화강암에 대한 화학적 풍화특성과 풍화 정도의 정량적으로 표현하기 위한 방법으로 조사지역의 지형자료에 기초한 습윤지수(wetness indes)를 산정하였으며, 중화속도 및 등급을 산정하였다. 습윤지수는 지형 고도를 이용하여 2-5m 크기의 격자로 구성 된 수치고도모형을 작성하여 계산하였으며 풍화속도와 등급은 Profile model을 이용하였다. 연구대상지역은 마산지역과 서부산지역으로 집수지형을 지시하는 습윤지수의 분포는 마산지역에서 다소 높은 지수 값을 보인다. 임계부하량(critical loads)에 의한 풍화등급은 마산 가포동 지역과 서부산 견마도 지역은 각각 3등급과 4등급에 해당하여 견마도 일원에서 높은 풍화 정도를 지시한다. 이와 같은 결과는 동일한 화강암 분포지의 경우에도 구성 광물의 비율과 기온과 강수량과 같은 지역적인 특성에 따라 상이한 풍화 경향이 나타남을 지시한다.
