토사유출량이란 강우가 발생한 지점에서 토양침식에 의해 생산된 토사가 퇴적 및 이송 등의 과정을 거쳐 유역의 특정 지점까지 도달한 토사량을 의미한다. 토사유출량을 정확하게 산정하는 방법은 현재까지 없다. 그러나 유역단위의 대략적인 토사유출량 산정을 위해서는 경험적 모형인 USLE 모형과 수정된 형태의 RUSLE 모형 또는 MUSLE 모형이 보편적으로 사용되고 있다. 최근에는 지형정보시스템(GIS)의 발달로 RUSLE 모형과 MUSLE 모형이 주로 사용되는데 연평균 토사량 산정에는 RUSLE 모형이 사용되며 단일호우에 대한 토사량은 MUSLE 모형이 사용된다. 그러나 이 모형들은 구곡 및 하천에서의 수리학적 특성 반영하기 힘든 단점이 있어서 유출지점에 따라 유사전달률(SDR)의 개념이 요구된다. RUSLE 모형과 MUSLE 모형에 사용되는 유사전달률은 외국에서의 경험적 공식으로서 우리나라 유역 실정을 제대로 반영하지 못하는 단점이 있다. 그러므로 추후 연구에는 8~10년 이상의 토사유출량 자료를 바탕으로 그 유역의 유사전달률을 결정하고, 그 결과 값을 이용하여 단일호우 사상의 유출량과 모의유출량을 비교하여 MUSLE 모형의 강우인자인 R값을 산정해야 할 것으로 판단된다. 그 선행 작업으로, 본 연구에서는 RUSLE 모형과 기존의 유사전달률을 사용하여 낙동강 상주보까지의 토사유출량을 산정하였다. 상주보유역은 안동댐유역, 임하댐유역, 안동댐하류유역, 내성천유역, 영강유역으로 구성되며 안동댐유역과 임하댐유역은 댐의 차단으로 본 연구의 토사유출량 산정에서 제외하였다.

하천의 수질개선을 위해서는 유역에서 배출되는 배출량을 제어하는 것뿐만 아니라 오염원별 기여도를 파악하고 효과적인 수질개선대책을 수립하는 것이 필요하다. 또한, 계절 및 유량조건에 따라 오염원의 배출량, 배출특성이 상이하게 나타나기 때문에 이를 고려하여 기여도를 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 청미천 유역을 대상으로 계절 및 유량조건에 따라 오염원별 기여율를 산정하고, 해당 유역의 수질개선을 위한 주요 인자를 도출하고자 한다. 기여율 분석을 위해 청미천 내에 유량 및 수질측정지점을 기준으로 소유역 구분을 하였으며, 소유역별로 물환경정보시스템을 통해 받은 유량 및 수질 자료를 활용하여 유량-부하량 관계곡선을 도출하였다. 유황조건별 부하량을 도출하기 위해 실측 유량 및 수질자료를 활용하여 유황곡선과 LDC(Load Duration Curve) 곡선을 작성하였다. 오염원별 기여도 산정을 위해 환경부의 2015년 전국오염원조사자료를 활용하여 소유역별 배출부하량을 산정하였으며, 앞서 산정한 LDC 곡선과의 비교를 통해 오염원별로 기여율을 산정하였다. 본 연구의 방법은 향후 유역의 수질개선대책 수립 시 오염원별 기여도 도출을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Denitrification in streams is of great importance because it is essential for amelioration of water quality and accurate estimation of $N_2O$ budgets. Denitrification is a major biological source or sink of $N_2O$, an important greenhouse gas, which is a multi-step respiratory process that converts nitrate ($NO_3{^-}$) to gaseous forms of nitrogen ($N_2$ or $N_2O$). In aquatic ecosystems, the complex interactions of water flooding condition, substrate supply, hydrodynamic and biogeochemical properties modulate the extent of multi-step reactions required for $N_2O$ flux. Although water flow in streambed and residence time affect reaction output, effects of a complex interaction of hydrodynamic, geomorphology and biogeochemical controls on the magnitude of denitrification in streams are still illusive. In this work, we built a two-dimensional water flow channel and measured $N_2O$ flux from channel sediment with different bed geomorphology by using static closed chambers. Two independent experiments were conducted with identical flume and geomorphology but sediment with differences in dissolved organic carbon (DOC). The experiment flume was a circulation channel through which the effluent flows back, and the size of it was $37m{\times}1.2m{\times}1m$. Five days before the experiment began, urea fertilizer (46% N) was added to sediment with the rate of $0.5kg\;N/m^2$. A sand dune (1 m length and 0.15 m height) was made at the middle of channel to simulate variations in microtopography. In high- DOC experiment, $N_2O$ flux increases in the direction of flow, while the highest flux ($14.6{\pm}8.40{\mu}g\;N_2O-N/m^2\;hr$) was measured in the slope on the back side of the sand dune. followed by decreases afterward. In contrast, low DOC sediment did not show the geomorphological variations. We found that even though topographic variation influenced $N_2O$ flux and chemical properties, this effect is highly constrained by carbon availability.

The present study was conducted to analyze the pattern of eutrophication of Korean reservoir with Chl. a concentration and morpho-physical parameters, and to valuate water quality characteristics of the classified types. The collected data from 486 reservoirs were classified as four types, with the Chl- a concentration (25 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$) and the ratio of water storage/surface area (mean depth, 7.5 m). According to OECD criteria and trophic state index based on Chl-a concentration, 34.3 and 72.8% of selected reservoirs appeared to be eutrophic, respectively. Characteristics of TYPE ll reservoirs generally showed high Chl-a concentration, relatively old age, small DA/LA ratio, short Hydraulic retention time, large paddy field and field to watershed ratio, and high pollutant loading compared to other types of reservoirs. The difference of TP concentration was greater than that of TN concentration in reservoir water among classified four types. Based on TN/TP ratio (by weight), phosphorus was limiting nutrient in all types and more closely related with Chl- a concentration than nitrogen. Significant decrease of Chl- a concentration with increase of TN/TP ratio observed only in reservoirs with Chl-a concentration > 25${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$. Although drainage area is believed to be a factor that is related to the generation load of pollutants in the watershed, it did not show any significant relationship with water quality parameters. Morphometric characteristics such as depth and age of reservoir as well as type of land use patterns in the watershed was among important parameters for the assessment of water quality characteristics in Korean reservoirs.

Lightweight Foamed Soil (LWFS) could be the substitute of normal soils used in backfill to earth structures and embankment materials far soft ground improvement in port and harbor project because of its effectiveness in settlement reduction and earth pressure decrease due to its lightness. A series of triaxial and unconfined compression tests were performed to investigate behaviors of LWFS composed of dredged soils, cement and air foam, and cured at underwater conditions. The density of LWFS will increase if LWFS is cured at underwater conditions because high water pressure makes air foam disappear or demolish during the curing compared with LWFS cured at normal air conditions. This paper is to find the mechanical behaviors of LWFS cured at seawater depth of 5.0 m and 10.0 m, respectively, which simulates underwater curing conditions by underwater pressure simulator chamber developed during this study. In addition, new normalized factor formula, which takes account of mixing design conditions determining compressive strength of LWFS, was proposed to consider mixing design factor fur LWFS.

One of the basic tasks in hydrological analysis is to delineate drainage basins and channel networks. Characteristics of channel networks and drainage basin parameters have been used widely in hydrologic calculation and modeling. DEMs(Digital Elevation Models) are generally used to automatically map the channel networks and to delineate drainage basins. This paper presents an effort to analyze basin characteristics using various DEMs. The quantitative analysis of channel networks begins with Horton's method of classifying stream according to Horton orders in hydro-geomorphy. HGSIS(Hydro-Geo-Spatial Information System) is possible to extract parameters. Usually, hydrologists. surveyors and GSIS researchers have some difficulties in accessing satellite images and in extracting DEMs from them. Therefore, the extracted DEMs from contours of digital map is widely used to have the basic works of hydrological analysis. This study presents proper DEMs to calculate Horton's orders, width function, drainage area, main channel length, total channel length, basin elevation and basin slope at digital map of 1:25,000 scale.

The procedures for identifying channel network are suggested by exploring the scaling property between the local slope and the contributing area, given that the area threshold criterion is an indispensable complement to the slope-area threshold criterion. Through the use of the above procedures and the field data, the basin slopes illustrate the trends of large scatters in space for the geomorphologic/topographic factors. According to the scaling regimes of them both the forms of landscape can be classified as topographic divergence and convergence. The presentation of the procedures proposed in this study is implemented in the case study on Seolma experimental catchment in Korea. As a result the dynamic behaviors of basin are confirmed, and thus the dynamics of channel head advance and channel network are shown to represent better than the method using the topographic chart manually.

Daily streamflow model, DAWAST, considering the meteorologic and geographic characteristics of the Korean watersheds has been developed to simulate the daily streamflow with the input data of daily rainfall and pan evaporation. The model is the conceptual one with three sub-models which are optimization, generalization, and regionalization models. The conceptual model consists of three linear reservoirs representing the surface, unsaturated, and saturated soil zones and water balance analysis was carried out in each soil zones on a daily basis. Optimization model calibrates the parameters by optimization technique and is applicable to the watersheds where the daily streamflow data are available Generalization model predicts the parameters by regression equations considering the geographic, soil type, land use, and hydrogeologic characteristics of watershed and is appicable to ungaged medium or small watersheds. Regionalization model cites the parameters from the analysed ones considering river system, latitude and longitude, and is applicable to ungaged large watersheds.

다양한 수문학적 순환 성분들의 영향을 받는 유역의 포화과정은 토양층의 공간적 이질성과 맞물려 매우 복잡한 거동특성을 보이는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 이와 관련하여 주목해 볼 만한 지형인자 중의 하나로서 지형지수(topographic index)를 들 수 있다. 지형지수는 TOPMODEL의 주요한 입력변수 중의 하나로서 그 공간적 분포에 따라 유역의 상대적인 포화도를 용이하게 평가할 수 있는 객관적인 수단을 제공한다. 하지만 신뢰성 있는 지형지수의 산정은 상당히 까다로운 작업으로서 정확한 지형지수를 산정할 수 있는 절대적인 방법은 존재하지 않는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 지금까지 개발된 DEM을 기반으로 한 각종 흐름방향 모의기술의 수준이 아직 자연적인 지형형상을 완전히 반영하지 못함에 기인한다. 본 연구에서는 8-흐름방향방법의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 개발된 바 있는 $\infty$-흐름방향방법에 따라 지형지수를 산정하여 유역이 공간적으로 포화되어 가는 과정을 모의하여 보았다. $\infty$-흐름방향방법은 각도의 형태로 흐름방향을 산정하여 고정된 흐름방향의 구속에서 벗어남과 동시에 최소한의 흐름분산(flow dispersion) 모의를 허용하여 유역규모의 포화과정을 효율적으로 모의할 수 있는 수단으로 판단된다. 대상유역으로는 설마천 유역을 선택하였으며 지형분석 과정에는 Arc GIS를 기반으로 운용되는 software 중의 하나인 TauDEM을 적용하였다. 아래 그림은 각각 포화도 20%, 50%, 90%에 해당하는 포화역을 도시한 것으로 하천망으로 중심으로 유역이 공간적으로 포화되어 가는 과정을 효율적으로 나타내고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 본 연구를 통하여 제시되는 방법론은 자연유역의 유출응답 속에 내재하는 동적특성이나 비선형특성에 대한 체계적인 접근을 가능하게 하는 효율적인 수단을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The Korean Eutrophication Index($TSI_{ko}$) was estimated using water quality monitoring data of eight main sites in the SoOoak River watershed. The environmental characteristics of rivers were classified and evaluated using the $TSI_{ko}$ for each factor calculated by COD, T-P, and Chl-a. There is a good condition for the algae to grow due to shallow water depth, inflow of non-point source pollution during rainfall, influx of sewage treatment effluent and increase of residence time. It shows trophic state more than mesotrophication year round. Especially, in case of Chuso point, which is the inflow point of Daecheong Lake, the water quality deteriorated due to hydraulic characteristics and showed the eutrophic state. Therefore, it is necessary to establish the measures to improve the water quality through the precise monitoring of SoOak River.
