일반적으로 유역의 기저유출 산정에는 적용의 간편성을 이유로 수평직선분리법, N-day법등을 주로 사용해 왔으며 이를 단기호우사상에 대한 모의에 적용해 왔다. 그러나 수평직선분리법이나 N-day에의한 기저유량의 산출은 연구자의 주관성이 반영될 수 있는 가능성이 다분하며 총 유출에 대한 기저 유출의 기여가 상대적으로 크게 되는 장기유출모의에 이용하기에는 효율적이지 못할 뿐 아니라 분석을 수행하는 사람에 따라서 그 결과에 많은 차이가 있을 수 있다. 그래서 최근에는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 다양한 'Digital Filtering' 방법이 수문곡선 분리에 많이 사용되고 있다. Eckhardt 필터는 출력의 신호대 잡음비가 최소화를 목적함수로 사용하는 최적선형필터의 형태를 갖고 있으며, BFImax 변수 값을 이용하여 수문분석 시 대수층별 특성을 반영할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 BFImax 변수 값에 따라서 분리된 직접유출과 기저유출 값에는 상당한 차이가 발생할 수 있는데, 정확한 수문분석을 위해서는 연구대상 유역 내 대수층의 특성에 가장 부합되는 BFImax 변수 값을 구하여야 하는 어려움이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 감수곡선 분석방법과 최적화 기법을 이용하여 BFImax 변수 값을 결정해 주는 모듈을 사용하고 있다. 금강유역의 수문곡선분리를 위해 먼저 금강 유역 내 관측소의 강우 및 수위 일 자료를 수집하고 수위자료는 동향, 옥천, 천천, 청성, 호탄지점의 자료를 이용하였다. 관측단위는 일 단위를 사용하였다. 분리된 수문곡선에 대한 검증은 지하수관측이나 중간유출에 대한 관측에 한계가 있기 때문에 정량적인 검증은 쉽지 않은 상황이고 수문곡선에 대한 시각적 판단에 의지하고 있다. 하지만 효과적인 기저유출분리가 가능해진다면 하천 건천화에 대한 정확한 진단과 함께 기후변화에 따른 지하수 및 지표수 영향에 대한 보다 신뢰도 있는 전망이 가능해지므로 매우 중요한 연구 분야라 판단된다.

In this study, recharge rates are estimated using SWAT-K (a distributed hydrological model). The validity of the estimated recharge rates were evaluated by employing the baseflow separation method based on observed hydrological data. The exploitable groundwater is typically determined as the 10-year drought frequency recharge rate that is calculated by average recharge ratio multiplied by 10-year drought frequency precipitation. In practice, however, recharge rates typically decrease in line with precipitation; therefore, exploitable groundwater could be overestimated when average recharge rates are used without considering precipitation. To resolve this overestimation, exploitable groundwater was calculated by re-estimating recharge rates that consider precipitation intensity. By applying this method to the Uiwang, Gwacheon, and Seongnam sub-basins, the exploitable groundwater decreased by 55.5~77.6%, compared with recharge rates obtained using the existing method.

강변여과는 지표수와 지하수가 각기 갖는 장점과 제약점을 상호 보완하여 수질이 양호한 상수원수를 대량 확보하기 위한 실제적 대안이다. 자연적인 여과작용에 의해 수질이 개선되는 효과가 있어 경제적이고 안정적으로 확보할 수 있지만, 장기간 취수는 지하수위의 저하를 가져 올 수 있으므로 유역의 수문분석을 통한 기저유출량 산정에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 대상지역으로는 현재 강변여과를 개발중인 창원시 대산정수장 취수장 지역이며, 대상지역의 기저유출량을 산정하기 위해 대상지역 상류에 위치한 낙동강 본포교의 낙동강 유량을 기초로 기저유출량을 산정하여 지하수 함양율을 평가하였다. 수문곡선 분리는 여러 방법 중 다른 방법보다 상대적으로 간편하고 실무에서 많이 사용되는 방법인 수평직선분리법을 사용하여 적정 취수 가능량을 산정하기 위한 최소 기저유출량을 산정하고자 한다. 이에 따라, 보유 자료 중 연 평균 최저 유출량을 보인 2008년 가을 갈수기의 시작(2008년 10월)부터 2009년 가을 갈수기의 시작(2009년 10월)까지의 자료를 분석했다. 본포교 유량 자료는 8일부터 10일 간격으로 측정되고 있기 때문에 결측치는 최인접 두 지점 사이의 선형보간법으로 보완했다. 다소 많은 양의 결측치에 대한 보정과 해당 유역의 연간 유출 특성을 파악하기 위해서 이동평균(moving average)을 적용했으며, 적용 결과 관측 주기에 해당하는 10일 이동평균 유출수문곡선이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 10일 이동평균에 의한 유출수문곡선에 의하면 상승부의 기점은 2009년 6월 12일로 나타났으며 유출량은 47.87cms로 나타났다. 따라서 총 기저유출량은 상승부 기점의 유출량으로 111일 동안 발생하는 것을 알 수 있었으며 그 총량은 약 45,900만$m^3$으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서의 결과 본포교를 유역출구로 하는 이 유역에는 임의 유출이 생기는 호우사상 시, 기저유출량은 총 유출량의 6.38%를 최소한 기대할 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

디지털 필터 기반의 기저유출 분리 기법은 하천유량으로부터 기저유량을 분리하는 기법으로서 적절한 분석을 위해서는 필터 매개변수에 대한 추정이 요구된다. 이 연구에서는 비교적 간단한 방법으로 기저유출을 분리할 수 있는 단일 매개변수를 가진 디지털 필터 기반의 기저유출 분리 기법에 대하여 민감도 분석을 수행하였으며, 민감도 분석 결과를 바탕으로 적정 매개변수 범위를 결정하였다. 적용된 디지털 필터 기반의 기저유출 분리 기법은 Lyne-Hollick(LH), Chapman, Chapman-Maxwell(CM), EWMA 기법이다. 분석 대상 지점은 낙동강 지류 하천 중 8년이상 연속된 유량측정 기록이 존재하는 25개 수위관측소이다. 민감도 분석을 위한 기저유출 분리 기법별 매개변수 범위는 과거 연구 사례에 근거하여 LH, Chapman, CM 기법의 경우 0.9 ~ 0.99, EWMA 기법은 0.003 ~ 0.015로 선정하였다. 기저유출 분리 기법별 민감도 분석 결과, EWMA 기법이 매개변수 변화에 따른 기저유출 지표의 변화가 가장 적은 것으로 분석되었으며, LH 기법이 민감도가 가장 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, LH 기법과 EWMA 기법은 수위관측소에 따라 산정된 기저유출 지수가 큰 차이를 보였으며, 이는 각 수위관측소의 유황곡선에서 10%와 90%에 해당하는 유량의 무차원 변동량에 기인한 것으로 분석되었다. 각 기저유출 분리 기법별 적용성 검토 결과, Chapman과 CM 기법은 기저유출만 존재하는 비 강우 기간에서 기저유출을 분리하는 오류가 확인됨에 따라, 비교적 유량 변동이 큰 우리나라의 유출 특성상 Chapman과 CM 기법의 적용은 부적절한 것으로 판단된다. LH 기법과 EWMA 기법은 홍수 수문곡선 상승부에 대한 기저유출의 비율, 비 강우 기간에 대한 기저유출 분리 오류 등을 검토하여, EWMA 기법은 0.012 ~ 0.015, LH 기법은 0.950 ~ 0.975로 선정하였다.

A method is proposed to estimate groundwater usage for water curtain cultivation (WCC) using a rating curve, and it is applied to field measurements of groundwater discharge used for WCC in Wangjeon-ri, Nonsan. During the winter season, the hydraulic components of irrigation ditches in the study area consist mainly of direct run-off and groundwater discharged from nearby pumping wells. Changes in stage of the ditches were monitored, and a baseflow separation method was applied to remove increments in stage due to direct run-off. The resulting records of stage were translated to groundwater discharge by applying the-stage-discharge relation. The estimated average groundwater discharge for the WCC in Wangjeon-ri was 10,900 m³/d or 420 m³/d/ha when the estimation is normalized by the total area for WCC facilities of this region. Applying this estimation (420 m³/d/ha) to the entire area of the WCC in Korea (10,746 ha),and considering the number of pumping days for the WCC (120 days/year), the total ground water usage for the WCC nation-wide is estimated to be 0.54 billion m³. This is equivalent to 32% of the total groundwater discharge for agricultural use in Korea (1.7 billon m³).

This paper presents an algorithm to derive the representative unit hydrograph for the real environment of a watershed. For a given watershed, the conventional methods give several different unit hydrographs by storm events. In this study the LP model is somewhat modified based on the previous study by Mays et also as follows: the objective function is designed to minimize the sum of weighted residuals. An additional constraint of moving average is added to prevent the unit hydrograph from the occurence of oscillation which was not active in Mays's paper. Configuration of rainfall matrix was improved to reduce its dimension in accordance with Diskin's review point. In spite of the superiority of LP approach in terms of representativeness, all the methods were very sensitive to the validity of baseflow separation and rainfall-loss. Several methods of the separations for rainfall excesses and direct runoffs were applied and no preferred methods were identified. This is the matter of judgement considering catchment and rainfall characteristics. This algorithm was applied to a real watershed of the Wi stream in the Nak-dong river. Compared with the IHP results by conventional methods, this optimized representative unit hydrograph demonstrated relatively smaller and shorter values in terms of the peak discharge and the basin lag respectively, and the oscillation of its falling limb successfully eliminated owing to the additional constraints of moving averages.

The accurate estimation of groundwater recharge is important for the proper management of groundwater systems. The widely used techniques of groundwater recharge estimation include water table fluctuation method, baseflow separation method, and annual water balance method. However, these methods can not represent the temporal-spatial variability of recharge resulting from climatic condition, land use, soil storage and hydrogeological heterogeneity because the methods are all based on the lumped concept and local scale problems. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to present an effective method for estimating groundwater recharge with spatial-temporal variability using the SWAT model which can represent the heterogeneity of the watershed. The SWAT model can simulate daily surface runoff, evapotranspiration, soil storage, recharge, and groundwater flow within the watershed. The model was applied to the Musimcheon watershed located in the upstream of Mihocheon watershed. Hydrological components were determined during the period from 2001 to 2004, and the validity of the results was tested by comparing the estimated runoff with the observed runoff at the outlet of the catchment. The results of temporal and spatial variations of groundwater recharge were presented here. This study suggests that variations in recharge can be significantly affected by subbasin slope as well as land use.

This study aimed to estimate exploitable groundwater for the sustainable supply of groundwater in the Jinju region of South Gyeongsang Province. As an integrated hydrologic analysis model, SWAT-MODFLOW was used to estimate the distributed groundwater recharge in consideration of land use and soil distribution. As a result of calibration of the model, the coefficient of determination between the observed flow and the simulated flow was 0.75-0.80, which was good. The simulated groundwater recharge rate showed a spatio-temporal distribution due to heterogeneous watershed characteristics. The amount of groundwater recharge shows lower values over winter and spring, but it increases according to the pattern of precipitation in summer and autumn. The calculated average annual groundwater recharge was compared with the result using the baseflow separation method of natural flow, and the deviation of both results was small, within 3 %, confirming the validity of the estimated groundwater recharge. Exploitable groundwater is defined as the amount of recharge corresponding to low flow with 10 years of return period. Therefore, in this study, 14.2 % of the annual precipitation was found to be exploitable as a result of calculating the amount of recharge at a 10-year frequency using a statistical frequency analysis technique.

It is a well known fact that baseflow discharge of rainfall runoff impacts on water quality of surface water significantly. In this paper, impacts of nitrate discharged as base flow on stream water quality were studied by using a software, PULSE from USGS to calculate monthly ground water discharge from hydrograph. We used water quality and flow rate data for Ghapcehon2 site in Daejeon city for year 2005 as well as ground water quality data in the watershed acquired from government agencies. Agricultural and forestry land use are dominant for upstream of Ghapcheon2 in the watershed. Base flow contributes about 85~95% of stream flows during spring and fall while 25~38% of stream flow was induced by base flow during summer and winter. Monthly nitrate loading discharged as base flow for Ghapcheon2 was estimated by using averaged nitrate concentration of groundwater in the watershed. Nitrate loading induced by base flow at Ghapcheon2 was estimated as 5.4 ton of $NO_{3}{^-}-N/km^{2}$, which is about 60% of nitrate loading of surface water, 9.2 ton of $NO_{3}{^-}-N/km^{2}$. Seasonal variation of nitrate concentration of base flow was estimated by dividing monthly nitrate loading by monthly base flow discharge. Nitrate concentration of groundwater was increasing from rainy season. From this study, it can be understood that ground water quality monitoring is important for the proper manage of surface water quality.

In Korea, there have been various methods of estimating groundwater recharge which generally can be subdivided into three types: baseflow separation method by means of groundwater recession curve, water budget analysis based on lumped conceptual model in watershed, and water table fluctuation method (WTF) by using the data from groundwater monitoring wells. However, groundwater recharge rate shows the spatial-temporal variability due to climatic condition, land use and hydrogeological heterogeneity, so these methods have various limits to deal with these characteristics. To overcome these limitations, we present a new method of estimating recharge based on water balance components from the SWAT-MODFLOW which is an integrated surface-ground water model. Groundwater levels in the interest area close to the stream have dynamics similar to stream flow, whereas levels further upslope respond to precipitation with a delay. As these behaviours are related to the physical process of recharge, it is needed to account for the time delay in aquifer recharge once the water exits the soil profile to represent these features. In SWAT, a single linear reservoir storage module with an exponential decay weighting function is used to compute the recharge from soil to aquifer on a given day. However, this module has some limitations expressing recharge variation when the delay time is too long and transient recharge trend does not match to the groundwater table time series, the multi-reservoir storage routing module which represents more realistic time delay through vadose zone is newly suggested in this study. In this module, the parameter related to the delay time should be optimized by checking the correlation between simulated recharge and observed groundwater levels. The final step of this procedure is to compare simulated groundwater table with observed one as well as to compare simulated watershed runoff with observed one. This method is applied to Mihocheon watershed in Korea for the purpose of testing the procedure of proper estimation of spatio-temporal groundwater recharge distribution. As the newly suggested method of estimating recharge has the advantages of effectiveness of watershed model as well as the accuracy of WTF method, the estimated daily recharge rate would be an advanced quantity reflecting the heterogeneity of hydrogeology, climatic condition, land use as well as physical behaviour of water in soil layers and aquifers.
