To examine sediment characteristics and find anthropogenic effects on riverine wetland ecosystems, paleoecological study was carried out at Bam islands in Seoul. Three hundred cm deep sediment cores were retrieved and dated with the lamination analysis method until 36 cm depth (1986). Sediments were divided into three zones based on the depth profiles of physico-chemical variables: below 160 cm depth (before 1968), between 160 and 40cm depths and above 40cm depth (after 1986). Physico-chemical characteristics were very variable between 160 and 40cm depths and this indicates unstable sedimentation environment. Even though heavy metal concentrations were relatively low, Cd and As contents have increased continuously. Dry mass accumulation rates during $1968{\sim}1986\;and\;1987{\sim}2003$ were 140 and $21\;kg\;m^{-2}\;yr^{-1}$, respectively. This was related to flooding intensity and duration. Bulk density, water content, loss on ignition, N, C, C/N ratio were very similar to other river delta but Ca, Na and K contents were 2 to 4 times higher than others. Heavy metal contents except Pb were lower or similar to those in other studied marshes in Korea. Heavy metal and Mg contents were correlated with each other and this suggests that the source of heavy metals be parent rock. From $^{13}C$ dating dates of organic materials in sediment, it is suggested that organic matter originated from the watershed and flooding intensity in the watershed might be responsible for the source of sediments. This study provides reference data for the comparison of sediment characteristics at islands in river and for the management of Bam islands.

New Zealand suffers from regular floods, these being the most common source of insurance claims for damage from natural hazard events in the country. This paper describes the origin and distribution of the largest floods in New Zealand, and describes the systems used to monitor and predict floods. In New Zealand, broad-scale heavy rainfall (and flooding), is the result of warm moist air flowing out from the tropics into the mid-latitudes. There is no monsoon in New Zealand. The terrain has a substantial influence on the distribution of rainfall, with the largest annual totals occurring near the South Island's Southern Alps, the highest mountains in the country. The orographic effect here is extreme, with 3km of elevation gained over a 20km distance from the coast. Across New Zealand, short duration high intensity rainfall from thunderstorms also causes flooding in urban areas and small catchments. Forecasts of severe weather are provided by the New Zealand MetService, a Government owned company. MetService uses global weather models and a number of limited-area weather models to provide warnings and data streams of predicted rainfall to local Councils. Flood monitoring, prediction and warning are carried out by 16 local Councils. All Councils collect their own rainfall and river flow data, and a variety of prediction methods are utilized. These range from experienced staff making intuitive decisions based on previous effects of heavy rain, to hydrological models linked to outputs from MetService weather prediction models. No operational hydrological models are linked to weather radar in New Zealand. Councils provide warnings to Civil Defence Emergency Management, and also directly to farmers and other occupiers of flood prone areas. Warnings are distributed by email, text message and automated voice systems. A nation-wide hydrological model is also operated by NIWA, a Government-owned research institute. It is linked to a single high resolution weather model which runs on a super computer. The NIWA model does not provide public forecasts. The rivers with the greatest flood flows are shown, and these are ranked in terms of peak specific discharge. It can be seen that of the largest floods occur on the West Coast of the South Island, and the greatest flows per unit area are also found in this location.

Anaerobic decomposition of organic material in flooded rice fields produces methane, which escapes to the atmosphere primarily by transport through the rice plants. The annual amount of $CH_4$ emitted from a given area of rice is a function of the number and duration of crops grown, water regimes before and during cultivation period, and organic and inorganic soil amendments. Soil type, temperature, and rice cultivar also affect $CH_4$ emissions. The field experiment was conducted for three years to develop methane emission factor for water regime before the cultivation period from the rice fields. It was treated with three different water regimes prior to rice cultivation, namely: non-flooded pre-season < 180 days, non-flooded pre-season > 180 days, flooded per-season in which the minimum flooding interval is set to 30 days. Methane emission increased with days after transplanting and soil redox potential (Eh) decreased rapidly after flooding during the rice cultivation. The average methane emission fluxes were $5.47kg\;CH_4\;ha^{-1}day^{-1}$in flooded pre-season > 30 days, 5.04 in non-flooded pre-season < 180 days and 4.62 in non-flooded pre-season > 180. Methane emission flux was highly correlated with soil temperature and soil Eh. Rice yields showed no difference among treatments with water regime before the cultivation period.

The frequency and scale of domestic flood damage continues to increase, but the criteria for responding to flood damage have not been established. To this end, research is underway to estimate the amount of rainfall in each region so that it can be used to respond to flood damage. The limit rainfall is defined as the cumulative maximum rainfall for each duration that causes flooding, and this research purpose to improve the threshold rainfall by estimating the damage based on the damage history in units of 5 years and analyzing changes over time. The limit rainfall based on the damage history was estimated by using the NDMS past damage history of the Ministry of the Interior and Safety and the rainfall minutes data of AWS and ASOS. The period for estimating the limit rainfall is 2013 ~ 2017, 2015 ~ 2019, and the limit rainfall is estimated by analyzing the relationship between the flood damage history and the rainfall event in each period. Considering changes in watershed characteristics and disaster prevention performance, the data were compared using 5-year data. As a result of the analysis, the limit rainfall based on the damage history could be estimated for less than about 10.0% of the administrative dongs nationwide. As a result of comparing the limit rainfall by period, it was confirmed that the area where the limit rainfall has increased or decreased This was analyzed as a change due to rainfall events or urbanization, and it is judged that it will be possible to improve the risk criteria of flooding.

Background: Over the past three decades, gradual eustatic sea-level rise has been considered a primary exogenous factor in the increased frequency of flooding and biological changes in several salt marshes. Under this paradigm, the potential importance of short-term events, such as ocean storminess, in coastal hydrology and ecology is underrepresented in the literature. In this study, a simulation was developed to evaluate the influence of wind waves driven by atmospheric oscillations on sedimentary and vegetation dynamics at the Skallingen salt marsh in southwestern Denmark. The model was built based on long-term data of mean sea level, sediment accretion, and plant species composition collected at the Skallingen salt marsh from 1933-2006. In the model, the submergence frequency (number yr^-1) was estimated as a combined function of wind-driven high water level (HWL) events (> 80 cm Danish Ordnance Datum) affected by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and changes in surface elevation (cm yr^-1). Vegetation dynamics were represented as transitions between successional stages controlled by flooding effects. Two types of simulations were performed: (1) baseline modeling, which assumed no effect of wind-driven sea-level change, and (2) experimental modeling, which considered both normal tidal activity and wind-driven sea-level change. Results: Experimental modeling successfully represented the patterns of vegetation change observed in the field. It realistically simulated a retarded or retrogressive successional state dominated by early- to mid-successional species, despite a continuous increase in surface elevation at Skallingen. This situation is believed to be caused by an increase in extreme HWL events that cannot occur without meteorological ocean storms. In contrast, baseline modeling showed progressive succession towards the predominance of late-successional species, which was not the then-current state in the marsh. Conclusions: These findings support the hypothesis that variations in the NAO index toward its positive phase have increased storminess and wind tides on the North Sea surface (especially since the 1980s). This led to an increased frequency and duration of submergence and delayed ecological succession. Researchers should therefore employ a multitemporal perspective, recognizing the importance of short-term sea-level changes nested within long-term gradual trends.

The application of direct seeding cultivation reduces time, labor, and cost. However, this application often has poor seedling establishment and leads to lower yield as compared to transplanting system. The tolerance to anaerobic and low temperature germination is important to improve seedling establishment and the wide-spread application of direct seeding method. This study was carried out to evaluate the responses of three japonica cultivars to different temperatures (15℃, 18℃, 21℃, 24℃, and 27℃) and different flooding levels (1 cm, 4 cm, 7 cm, 10 cm) during germination and seedling development. The mean survival percentage significantly increased (P<0.05) when the flooding level decreased and when temperature increased. There were significant effects of the interaction between temperature and water depth on survival percentage and seedling height. When temperature decreased from 27℃ to 15℃, the germination duration significantly increased from 6.4 days to 16.3 days while the germination speed, survival percentage, and seedling height decreased from 5.3 seeds day^-1, 61.9% and 190.6 cm to 2.2 seeds day^-1, 33.2%, and 47 cm, respectively. The increase in temperature under submergence condition was associated with the increased expression of Amy3D and ALDH2a but the decreased expression of ADH1 and PDC1. The results of this research would be used for further studies and breeding programs to improve rice seedling establishment and the application of direct seeding cultivation.

수소전기차와 발전을 시작으로 수소연료전지 시장이 성장하면서 연료전지와 수소의 수요가 증가하고 있으므로, 조기 상용화와 시장 활성화를 위하여 연료전지의 내구성과 연료 이용효율에 관한 연구가 진행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 연료전지의 성능과 연료 이용효율을 최적화하기 위하여 양극 닫힌계의 운전조건에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 부하 전류에 대한 배출 조건과 수소 공급 압력이 고분자전해질 연료전지의 성능에 미치는 영향에 대하여 평가하였고, 전해질막 두께에 대한 물의 역확산 영향을 분석하였다. 양극 닫힌계에서 수소극에 쌓인 물은 연료전지 전압이 3% 감소한 경우에 솔레노이드 밸브를 열어 배출하였다. 수소 공급 압력은 0.1~0.5 bar, 배출 시간은 0.1~1 s까지 변화시키면서 실험을 수행하였다. NR 211 (25.4 um) 전해질막의 경우 0.1 bar의 수소 공급 압력과 0.1 s 배출 시간 조건에서 수소 이용효율 98.9%의 가장 높은 연료 이용효율을 보였지만 잦은 flooding으로 인하여 장시간 운전 시 연료전지의 성능이 감소하였다. 이에 반해 NR 212 (50.8 um)의 전해질막에서 생성된 물과 질소의 역확산 속도를 늦추어 배출 간격을 늘리고 연료 이용효율을 높일 수 있었다.

이식기의 토마토에 각각 침수깊이를 지면 위 0, 5, 10, 15 ㎝의 4개 처리에, 각각 시간을 6, 12, 24, 48, 120시간 조합 처리 후 생육저해정도, 생리적 변화 및 수량 감소 등을 비교 검토하였다. 침수의 깊이가 깊어질수록, 그리고 시간이 길어질수록 초장, 개체당 엽수, 지상부 및 지하부 생체중이 유의적으로 감소했고, 개화는 0 ㎝ 침수에서 24시간, $5{\sim}10$ ㎝에서 6시간까지 개화가 가능하였으나, 15 ㎝에서는 6시간 경과에서도 이루어지지 않았다. 부정근의 발생은 침수깊이에 관계없이 48시간 침수를 전후하여 발생이 증대되었다. 근활력은 포화수 상태에서는 시간 경과에 따라 완만한 감소경향을 보였으나, 5 ㎝ 이상의 침수에서는 따라 급격한 감소를 보였다. 엽록소 함량감소는 근활력에서와 유사한 경향을 보였다. 잎의 기공저항성은 침수깊이와 시간경과에 따라 증대되었다. 광합성과 호흡률은 침수깊이와 시간경과에 따라 감소 하였으며 호흡률의 감소는 비교적 완만하였으나, 광합성은 침수깊이가 깊어지고 시간이 48시간이상시 극히 저조하였다. 발병은 침수처리깊이와 시간 증대에 비례하여 커졌고, 살균제 처리에 따른 방제 가능성은 유묘기와 같은 경향이었으나 효과는 미흡한 정도였다. 요소엽면시비에 의한 효과는 유의적으로 없었다. 120시간경과에서는 침수깊이에 관계없이 식물체가 고사되어 수량을 기대할 수 없었다. 그러나 침수의 깊이보다도 시간 차이에 따른 개체당 총 과수 감소나 평균중의 변이가 인정되었으며, 특히 평균 과중은 침수깊이의 증대로 오히려 커졌다. 초장, 엽수, 생체중과 엽록소 함량, 근활력 및 수량 특성 제형질들 상호간에는 정의 상관관계가 있었으며, 이들 형질과 상편생장정도, 기공확산저항성, 부정근 발생 등의 제형질간에는 부의 상관관계가 있었다.
