In this study, changing characteristics of bed materials downstream of Daecheong Dam by flushing flow was investigated. Flushing flow affected the downstream environment in such a way that the mean diameter of bed material was increased and the standard deviation was decreased. The vertical sorting of bed materials composed of mixed sediment in the sediment box was observed. The surface layer was composed of gravels, and uniform sand material was buried below it. Relative fractions (Di/D50) of the bed material trapped in the box was nearly 1.0 for the bed material coarser than D$_{50}$ at Hyundo gauging station, and was between two values on the bed surface before and after the flushing flow at Bugang gauging station. Ratio of driving force to resisting force for each fraction ($\tau_i^*$) with the faction size maintained constant for the bed material coarser than D$_{50}$ at Hyundo station. At Bugang station, however, it was rapidly decreased. It means that pavement of the surface layer of bed material at Bugang station was developed, with the sediment particles moving downstream uniformly by flushing flow.

In Korea, total sediment discharge of a river has been estimated simply by using certain sediment transport formulas including, among others, Einstein's formula. Those formular, however, are known not to be reliable enough for the result calculated by them to be used directly to river planning and management. Therefore, the study used the Modified Einstein Procedure to the estimation of total sediment discharge, because this method is reliable estimated by measurement. Here, measurement of sediment discharge used depth integrating method. The major results obtained from the study for estimation by depth integrating method of sediment discharge in Naeseong stream are as follow; 1 The sedeiment characteristics of Naeseong stream are; The distribution of sediment grain size shows that silt and clay are 55% and sand is 45%. and the bed load sediment grain size is constituted that sand contained with the grain size from O.062mm to 2.0mm is 80% 2. The sediment rating formulas derived from the regression analysis between the sediment discharge and flow discharge are; Seogpo-Gyo : Qs=$0.017 \times 10^{-4} Q^{2.352}$, where discharge is l0cms $0.074 \times 10^{-4} Q^{2.066}$, where discharge is l0cms

Natural streams meander, forming pools at the outer part of bend and riffles at the crossing. Pools are deep at a lower flow velocity, and riffles are shallow at a higher flow velocity. Attentions are being paid to pool-riffle sequences in meandering streams because pool-riffle sequences tend to increase biodiversity of the stream ecosystem. This study investigates the characteristics of distribution of bed sediment particles in the upstream reach of the Gap Stream, which is a tributary of the Geum River in Korea. The upstream part of the Gap Stream, the study reach, is a gravel-bed stream, showing a pool and three riffles due to meandering. The reach also includes pools at the upstream and downstream parts of the weir. The characteristics of bed sediment particles sampled at the wetland and in the side channel are studied, revealing that the median particle diameter in the riffle is about four times larger than that in the pool. In addition, flow simulations are carried out for ordinary discharge and design flood, and such parameters important to sediment transport as velocity, shear stress, dimensionless shear stress (or Shields number), and dimensionless shear velocity are provided to see the mobility of sediment particles in the pool-riffle sequence.

유효유량이란 수년에 걸쳐 연 유사량의 대부분을 이동시키는 유량으로 정의되며 유량-빈도분포곡선과 유사량 곡선을 이용하여 산정된다. 유효유량은 하도를 설계하거나 기존 하도의 안정성을 평가하는데 있어 기준유량이 될 수 있는 필수적인 요소이지만, 현재 국내의 경우 이에 대한 분석이 충분히 수행되지 않아 특정한 패턴을 도출하기 힘든 실정이다. 특히 우리나라의 하천은 연강수량의 약 70%가 여름철에 집중되는 기후적 특성의 영향으로 하상계수가 미국과 유럽에 비해 10에서 25배 크게 나타나 외국사례를 국내에 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구하도복원이 계획 또는 진행되어 유효유량 산정이 필수적이며 하상계수가 매우 큰 만경강, 청미천, 함평천을 대상하천으로 선정하여 유효 유량을 산정하고 수리적, 지형학적 특성과의 연관성을 분석하고자 한다. 유효유량을 계산하는 데 있어 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요소는 유량빈도 간격 수와 유량빈도 간격의 설정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유효유량 산정을 위한 유량 간격으로 산술등간격(Arithmeic Bin)과 로그간격(Logarithmic Bin)을 모두 사용하였으며 각각 간격수가 25개, 50개, 100개인 경우에 대해 유효유량을 계산하여 비교하였다. 산술등간격과 로그간격을 사용한 유효유량 산정결과 중 최대, 최소값을 제외한 나머지의 평균값을 각 대상하천의 유효유량으로 선정하였다. 수리적, 지형학적 특성에 따른 대상하천 분석 결과 하상계수가 클수록 유효유량이 크게 산정되는 것으로 나타났으며 하상 경사, 하상토의 중앙입경 크기와 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 수심-하폭비와 사행도의 경우 유효유량과 반비례하는 것으로 나타났다.
