  • Water Footprint is utilized to analyze direct and indirect water consumption for sustainable water resource management. This study aims to understand potential applicability of water footprint concept by analyzing the status of water consumption and related water policies in Seoul. We analyzed a direct gray water footprint and the blue water footprint in Seoul affected by the social and economic characteristics of the consumers in the city. In particular, in order to analyze the blue water footprint represented by both surface and underground water for the provision and consumption of products, we calculated the actual water consumptions of surface and underground water for 25 districts in Seoul. Our analysis in consideration of population and households indicates that Jung-gu has the highest blue water footprint followed by Jongro-gu, Gangnam-gu, Yongsan-gu, and Seocho-gu. Gray water footprint was calculated by estimating the amount of water for purifying wastewater to meet the water quality standard (above BOD 3.5ppm) for each district. As a result, Jung-gu has the highest gray water footprint, followed by Jongro-gu, Gangnam-gu, Yongsan-gu, Seocho-gu, and Youngdeungpo-gu. Our study suggests the potential value of using water footprint concept to complement the current limitations of water use management focusing on water supply control. We expect that our analysis will provide an important basis for considering water use management which is economically and socially more resilient and sustainable.

  • Tracksite of pterosaurs, birds, and dinosaurs in Chungmugong-dong in Jinju was designated as a natural monument in 2011 and is known as the world's largest in terms of the number and density of pterosaur footprints. This site has been managed by installing protection buildings to conserve in 2018. About 17% of the footprints of pterosaur, theropod, and ornithopod in this site under management in the 2nd protection building are of great academic value, but observation of footprints has difficulties due to continuous physical and chemical damage. In particular, the accumulation of milk-white contaminants is formed by the gypsum and air pollutant complex. Gypsum remains evaporated with a plate or columnar shape in the process of water circulation around the 2nd protection building, and the dust is from through the inflow of the gallery windows. The aqueous solution of gypsum, consisting of calcium from the lower bed and sulfur from grass growth, is catchmented into the groundwater from the area behind the protection building. Pollen and a few minerals other constituents of contaminants, go through the gallery window, which makes it difficult to expel dust. To conserve the fossil-bearing beds from two contaminants of different origins, controlling the water and atmospheric circulation of the 2nd protection building and removing the contaminants continuously is necessary. When cleaning contaminants, the steam cleaning method is sufficiently effective for powder-shaped milk-white contaminants. The fossil-bearing bed consists of dark gray shale with high laser absorption power; the laser cleaning method accompanies physical loss to fossils and sedimentary structures; therefore, avoiding it as much as possible is desirable.

  • Cretaceous sedimentary rocks bearing dinosaur tracks in the Goseong interchange area were studied for their conservation and public display in the aspect of applied mineralogy. Black clay layers alternate with silt layers in the sedimentary rocks. The verical and horizontal fissures are commonly filled with calcite veinlets, supergenetic iron and manganese oxides. The rocks are composed of quartz, albite, K-feldspar, calcite, chlorite, illite, muscovite, and biotite, with minor apatite and rutile. Silt layers are relatively rich in calcite and albite, whereas clay layers are abundant in quartz, illite, and chlorite. Al, Fe, Mg, K, Ti, and P are enriched in the clay layers, while Ca, Na, and Mn in silt. Most of trace elements including V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cs, Zr, REE, Th, and U are enriched in clay layers. Inorganic carbon are present in silt layers as calcite, while organic carbon in black clay layers. The black clay layers were partly altered to yellow clay layers along the fissures, simultaneously with the decrease of organic carbon. Selective exfoliation of clay-rich black and yellow clay layers, calcite matrix of silt layers and calcite infillings of fissures are estimated as the major weakness potentially promoting chemical and physical degradation of the track-bearing rock specimens.

  • The geology of Saok island area in Jeollanam-do can be divided into 4 lithologic types: Jurassic granite, Cretaceous sedimentary rocks, acidic tuff and acidic dikes. In the Saok island area, dinosaur and web-footed bird footprints, arthropod trackway and silicified wood were found recently in the Cretaceous sedimentary rocks which composed of alternating light grey sandstone, shale and mudrock. The fossil-bearing sedimentary rock is overlain by an acidic tuff, and the sedimentary rock and acidic tuff are cut by acidic dykes. In order to constrain the depositional age of the Cretaceous sedimentary rocks in Saok island area, SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages were determined in the tuffaceous sandstone and overlying acidic tuff. Zircon U-Pb ages of the sandstone and tuff are $83.58{\pm}0.86$ and $79.80{\pm}0.75Ma$, respectively, which belong to the Campanian of the Late Cretaceous. The U-Pb age of the acidic tuff indicates the eruption time of acidic tuff and thus the minimum age of the fossil-bearing sedimentary rocks in this area. Therefore, the formation age of the dinosaur and web-footed bird footprints can be constrained between 83.6 and 79.8 Ma.

  • 전 세계적으로 식량과 물 안보에 대한 중요도가 높아지고 있으며 이에 따라 물발자국은 식량과 물을 연계하는 요소로서 거론되고 있다. 물발자국은 제품이 생산되는 과정동안에 사용되는 물의 양을 의미하며 $m^3/ton$으로 표현한다. 이러한 물발자국은 작물 필요수량 및 생산량을 기반으로 산정되기 때문에 기후변화와 밀접한 관계가 있다. 따라서 농업 및 수자원 계획 분야에서 물발자국의 활용성을 높이기 위해서는 기후변화에 따른 우리나라 농산물의 물발자국 변화를 살펴보는 것이 필요하다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 기후변화에 따른 논벼의 농업용수량 및 생산량 산정을 통하여 미래의 녹색 및 청색 물발자국을 산정하고, 시기 및 시나리오별 불확실성 및 민감도를 평가하고자 하였다. 기후변화 시나리오는 RCP 기반의 신 기후변화 시나리오를 이용하였으며, 물발자국 산정 작물은 우리나라의 주곡인 논벼를 대상으로 하였다. 물발자국은 작물의 단위생산량당 소비되는 물의 양으로 정의되며, 최근 연구에서 물발자국은 용수 공급원에 따라 녹색(green), 청색(blue), 회색(grey) 물발자국으로 구분하여 산정되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 작물의 증발산으로 소비되는 수량만을 물발자국 산정에 적용하여 증발산량 중 강우에 의해 공급되는 수량인 녹색 물발자국과 관개에 의해 인위적으로 공급되는 수량인 청색물발자국을 산정하였다. 기후변화에 따른 미래의 작물의 생산량을 산정하기 위해 작물모델로 기상, 재배관리, 작물의 유전정보, 토양수분 및 질소의 효과까지 고려하여 작물의 생육뿐만 아니라 생산량까지도 모의할 수 있는 CERES-Rice모델을 적용하였다. 미래 기후 전망을 위한 전지구모형은 종류가 다양하고 모형의 특성과 모형 입력 자료에 따라 모의 결과가 상이하게 나타남에 따라 불확실성을 내포하고 있다. 따라서 기후변화에 능동적으로 대처할 수 있는 논벼의 물발자국을 산정하기 위하여 각 시나리오 및 시기별 물발자국의 불확실성 및 민감도를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 기후변화에 따른 미래 농업수자원의 변화를 분석하는데 이용될 수 있을 뿐 만아니라 우리나라 미래 국가수자원 정책의 수립을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
