In October 2011, a commercialized 100kW class floating photovoltaic system positive plant was installed at Hapcheon dam a multi-purpose reservoir the first time ever in the nation. Floating photovoltaic system differs in water float, mooring device and underwater cable process from land photovoltaic system. As for land and building photovoltaic power generation equipments, many installation cases and skilled experiences are available, and thus installation is not difficult. However, commercial power generation floating photovoltaic system, which is attempted for the first time in the nation, requires to be designed and installed through a series of processes like technical review and verification of data by process in comparison with similar cases. The structure of floating photovoltaic system, an equipment for float photovoltaic module and other electrical equipment, is required to withstand weather environments like wind or typhoon etc and yet not affect water quality negatively, and for implementation of this system, construction efficiency and economy etc should be considered comprehensively. In this paper, the techniques of installing floating photovoltaic structure, mooring device, underwater cable, electrical equipment and remote monitoring control system are explained. The 100kW floating PV system is operating with 15% average capacity factor.

기후변화에 따른 극한 기후의 시 공간적 변동성과 패턴의 이상변화가 가속화되고 있으며, 이에 따른 물 순환 특성의 변화는 이수, 치수, 환경 그리고 친수 등 다양한 분야에서도 예측할 수 없는 결과를 초래하고 있다. 특히, 치수 및 이수 등 국내 수자원 관리의 대부분을 담당하고 있는 다목적댐 운영에서도 기후변화에 따른 유입량의 불확실성 증가로 안정적인 용수공급에 대한 어려움이 점차 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 유역 내의 수문학적 반응은 기상 및 지표 수문 인자의 물리적 상호메카니즘에 의해 발생하게 된다. 특히, 강우, 기온, 습도, 바람 등 기상학적 인자들은 유역 내의 수문 변동성에 직 간접적으로 영향을 주는 대표적인 인자이며, 이들 기상인자의 변동 특성을 반영하기 위한 기후지수(Climate Index, CI)는 지표수문인자인 유출과의 상관관계 분석에 유용하게 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 유역 다목적댐을 대상으로 AR5 RCP 시나리오 기반의 기상인자에 대한 기후지수(CI)를 산정하고 다목적댐 유입량과의 상관성을 분석하였다. 대상유역의 기상 및 유입량 관측자료(1976-2005)는 기상청과 국가수자원관리종합정보시스템(WAMIS)를 이용하였으며, AR5 RCP 시나리오 기반의 유입량 자료(2005-2099)는 통계적 기법(QDM)으로 상세화된 기상자료를 입력인자로 수문모형(PRMS)을 통해 산정하였다. 또한, 기후지수(CI)와 유출지수(Standardized Streamflow Index, SSI)의 상관성 분석을 위해 Pearson 적률상관 분석방법을 적용하였으며, 통계적 유의성 검증은 Student t 검정방법을 적용하였다. 본 연구의 방법론과 결과는 기후변화에 따른 다목적댐 안정적인 용수공급을 위한 다양한 기술개발 시 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

농업으로부터의 비점오염은 지표수와 지하수 모두의 수질에 영향을 미친다. 특히, 비료, 퇴비, 농약 등의 인공적 질소가 살포된 토양은 강우시 화학 침출로 인한 수질오염이 발생되고 있다. 강우시 강우유출수와 함께 지표 수역으로 흘러들어오는 영양물질(질소, 인)은 저수지로 유입되어 침수시 작물이 죽게 되어 저수지의 부영양화 등의 수질 오염문제를 야기시킨다. 국내에서는 홍수조절용지에서의 영농활동의 전면 금지하고 있는 실정이지만, 불법적으로 경작활동이 진행되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 다목적댐 홍수조절지 내 경작지 토양 및 양분 특성 평가를 수행하였다. 홍수조절지 내 경작지 토양 특성 및 양분 조사를 위하여 경작이 집중적으로 이루어지고 있는 대청호 지역을 모니터링 지점으로 선정하였다. 모니터링은 경작지 내 토양 시료 및 주변 토양을 채취하여 분석을 수행하였다. 채취한 토양은 토양표준분석법(농촌진흥청, 2012) 및 농업토양분석방법(국립산림과학원, 2014) 기준을 바탕으로 물리 화학적 분석을 수행하였다. 모니터링은 2018년 5월부터 수행되었으며 현재까지 월 1회씩 모니터링을 진행하고 있다. 연구 결과, 밭 경작지 토양은 논에 비해 실트질 함량이 절반으로 침투성이 높은 토양으로 분석되었으며, 영양염류의 침투를 통한 이동 가능(기저유출)이 높게 나타나는 것으로 조사되었다. 이는 중간유출 및 기저유출 저감방안 도입이 필요한 것으로 평가되었다. 작물별 토양 양분분석 결과 고추, 마늘, 담배 경작지에서 화학비료사용량이 타 작물에 비해 높은 것을 분석되었으며, 경작지에 화학비료 및 퇴비의 과다 사용으로 염류농도가 증가할 경우 전기전도도가 높아지며 토양의 삼투압을 증가시켜 물의 흡수와 각종 양분 흡수를 방해하는 것으로 평가되었다. 인의 존재 형태별 비교시 대부분의 경작지에서 높은 값을 보였으며, 특히 경작지 토양의 Residual-P의 농도가 원지반 보다 2~5배 정도 높게 나타났다. 이러한 원인은 퇴비의 사용으로 인한 Residual-P의 누적으로 평가되며, 환경변화에 따라 수층으로 인의 용출이 쉽게 발생하므로 향후 수질에 미치는 영향이 더 클 것으로 사료된다.

과거부터 수자원분야는 공학적인 측면을 주로 강조하였으며, 따라서 인문사회학적 요소(예, 토지이용, 인구, 생태 환경, 경제발전 등)가 종종 배제된 채 시설물 계획이 이루어졌다. 그러나, 경제가 발전하고 사회의 모습이 복잡해짐에 따라, 수자원 관련 시설물의 계획에 있어 다양한 인문사회학적 요소를 고려할 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 사회-수문 모델링 기법을 이용하여 사회-수문 상호 간 순환적 관계를 파악하고, 특히 다목적댐이 인문사회에 미치는 영향을 정략적으로 파악하고자 하였다. 우리나라는 기후변화에 의한 극한가뭄과 홍수발생 빈도가 증가하고 있다. 이에 대한 대책으로, 다목적댐을 건설하여 효율적인 수자원 관리를 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 대상지역으로 국내 강원도의 횡성댐을 선정하였다. 횡성댐은 하류에 위치한 횡성군과 원주시에 생 공 농업용수를 공급하는 용수원의 역할과 섬강 하류지역에 발생하는 홍수를 방어하는 역할을 하고 있다. 횡성댐 유역의 사회-수문학적 관계를 이해하기 위해 인과지도를 이용한 시스템 요소간의 상호연관성을 파악하였고, 이를 바탕으로 수문학적 요소와 인문사회학적 요소 사이의 관계식을 구성하였다. 수자원 분야에 해당하는 요소로는 생 공 농업용수 이용량 및 댐 저수량과 방류량을 선정하였으며, 인문사회학적 요소는 인구, 공업지역 농경지 주거지역의 면적 및 지역 내 총생산액을 선정하였다. 이와 같은 사회-수문학 요소를 바탕으로 해당 지역의 사회-수문 전체의 동태적 변화를 이해하기 위해 시스템 동적모의(System Dynamics) 모형을 이용한 모델링을 진행하였다. 다목적댐 건설 전 후로 대상지역의 용수 이용량과 인구 및 지역 총생산액 등의 데이터를 수집하여 모델을 검증하였다. 나아가 구현한 모형을 활용하여 향후 기후변화 발생 시 다목적댐이 대상지역의 용수이용 및 인구변화, 지역경제에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구는 인문사회분야와 수자원분야 사이의 영향관계를 이해하고, 모델을 이용한 정량적인 분석을 통해 향후 수자원 시설물 계획 및 정책마련을 위한 의사결정도구로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The environmental ecological flow (EEF) of stream or river will be designated according to the enforcement of the Water Environment Preservation Act. Previous researches by Ministry of Environment have proposed agricultural reservoirs as alternative resources to secure river flow where multi-purpose dam does not exist. However, agricultural reservoirs are constructed for the supply of agricultural water, and in fact, there is not a sufficient amount of water to be supplied to rivers as EEF. Therefore, this study examines the economic feasibility of securing EEF through the remodeling or construction of agricultural reservoirs. We investigated water balance of reservoir through simulation of three types of water supply demands such as agricultural water, agricultural water and river maintenance flow, and agricultural water and environmental ecology flow. The economics analysis was conducted on water supply demands and corresponding remodeling or construction of reservoirs. As a result, it was found that the method of securing through heightening existing reservoir enhancement is economically feasible. However, it was not possible to secure all the amount of the EEF due to the size limitation of existing reservoirs or constrain of the watershed for newly built reservoir. Therefore, in order to secure all of the EEF, the utilization of other alternatives as well as agricultural reservoirs should be considered. This study demonstrated the method of economical feasibility study of securing river maintenace flow and EEF using agricultural reservoirs and other considerations.

Yongdam Lake is the fifth largest artificial lake in Korea newly formed by the first impounding the Yongdam Multi-purpose Dam on December, 2002. Yongdam Lake, with her total water storage of 820 million M/T, is located at the roof-top region of the streams flowing into the just-constructed new Saemankeum Lake. Seasonal succession of phytoplakton in Yongdam Lake might affect cyanobacterial blooms in Saemankeum Lake by inoculating seasonal dominants. During 2002-2003 when the first impounding after the construction of Yongdam Multi-purpose Dam was still undergoing, summer cyanobacterial blooms by Anabaena, Microcystis, and Aphanizomenon were observed. Among these three, filamentous Anabaena is well known to have its species with $N_2-fixing$ ability and special cells such as heterocysts and akinetes as well as the vegetative cells. We established a clonal culture of Anabaena spiroides v. crasse (KNU-YD0310) from the live water samples collected at the bloom site of Yongdam Lake. The N- and P-nutrient requirement of the KNU-YD0310 was explored by the experimental cultivation of the laboratory strain. Ratio of heterocysts to vegetative cells increased as N-deficiency extended with its maximum at $N_2-fixing$ condition. The strain KNU-YD0310 exhibited considerable growth under N-limiting conditions while its growth was proportional to the initial phosphate-P concentration under P-deficient conditions. Under P-limiting conditions akinete density increased, which could be interpreted as an adaptation strategy to survive severe environment by transforming into resting stage. The above eco-physiological characteristics of Anabaena spiroides v. crassa might be useful as an ecological criterion in controlling cyanobacterial blooms at Shaemankeum Lake in near future.

Major objective of this study was to determine interannual and seasonal water quality along with characteristics of longitudinal gradients along the reservoir axis of the riverine zone (Rz)-to-lacustrine zone (Lz). Water quality dataset of five years during 2003~2007 used here were obtained from Ministry of Environment, Korea and ten physical, chemical and biological parameters were analyzed in the study. Similarity analysis, based on moropho-hydrological variables of reservoir surface area, watershed area, total inflow, and outflow, showed that the reservoirs were categorized as three groups of large-dam reservoirs (Chungju Reservoir, Daecheong Reservoir and Soyang Reservoir), mid-size reservoirs (Andong Reservoir, Yongdam Reservoir, Juam Reservoir and Hapcheon Reservoir), and small-size reservoirs (Hoengseong Reservoir and Buan Reservoir). According to the data comparison of high-flow year (2003) vs. lowflow year (2005), dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, biological oxygen demand (BOD), suspended solids (SS), total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), chlorophyll-a (CHL) and electrical conductivity (EC) declined along the longitudinal axis of Rz to Lz and water transparency, based on Secchi depth (SD), increased along the axis. These results indicate that transparency was a function of Values of pH, DO, SS, SD, and EC at each site were greater in the low-flow year (2005) than the high-flow year (2003), whereas values of BOD, COD, TN, TP and CHL were greater in the high-flow year (2003). When values of TN, TP, CHL and SD in nine reservoirs were compared in the three zones of Rz, Tz, and Lz, values of TN, TP and CHL declined along longitudinal gradients and SD showed the opposite due to the sedimentation processes from the water column. Values of TN were not statistically correlated with TP values. The empirical linear models of TP-CHL and CHL-SD showed significant (p<0.05, $R^2$>0.04). In the mid-size reservoirs, the variation of CHL was explained ($R^2$=0.2401, p<0.0001, n=239) by the variation of TP. The affinities in the correlation analysis of mid-size reservoirs were greater in the CHL-SD model than any other empirical models, and the CHL-SD model had an inverse relations. In the meantime, water quality variations was evidently greater in Daecheong Reservoir than two reservoirs of Andong Reservoir and Hoengseong Reservoir as a result of large differences of water quality by long distance among Rz, Tz and Lz.

This study aims to evaluate applicability of both online and offline parameter calibration techniques on rainfall-runoff modeling using a conceptual lumped hydrologic model. To achieve the goal, the storage function model was selected and then two different automatic calibration techniques: SCE-UA (offline method) and particle filter (online method) were applied to calibrate the optimal parameter sets for 9 rainfall events in the Cheoncheon catchment, upper area of the Yongdam multi-purpose dam. In order to assess reproducibility of hydrographs from the parameter sets of both techniques, the observed discharge of each event was divided into low flow (below average flow) and high flow (over average flow). The results show that the particle filter method, updating the parameters in real-time, provides more stable reproducibility than the SCE-UA method regardless of low and high flow. The optimal parameters estimated by SCE-UA are very sensitive to the selected objective functions used in this study: RMSE and HMLE. In particular, the parameter sets from RMSE and HMLE demonstrate superior goodness-of-fit values for high flow and low flow periods, respectively.

Korea water resources corporation (K-Water) has developed the real-time water resources management system for the Nakdong and the Geum River basin to efficiently operate multi-purpose dams in the basins. This study has extended to the Han River basin for providing an effective ending target storage of a month to the real-time water resources management system using Sampling Stochastic Dynamic Programming (SSDP), consequently increasing the efficiency of the reservoir system. The optimization model were developed for three reservoirs, named Soyang, Chungju, and Hwacheon, with high priority in terms of the amounts of effective capacity and water supply for the basin. The number of storage state variable for each dam to set an optimization problem has been assigned from the results of sensitivity analysis. Compared with the K-water operating policy with the target water supply elevations, the optimization model suggested in this study showed that the shortfalls are decreased by 37.22 MCM/year for the required water demands in the basin, even increasing 171 GWh in hydro electronic power generation. In addition, the result of a reservoir operating system during the drawdown period applied to real situation demonstrates that additional releases for water quality or hydro electronic power generation would be possible during the drawdown period between 2007 and 2008. On the basis of these simulation results, the applicability of the SSDP model and the reservoir operating system is proved. Therefore, the more efficient reservoir operation can be achieved if the reservoir operating system is extended further to other Korean basins.

ANFIS-based methodology for improving GloSea5 ensemble weather forecast is developed and evaluated in this study. The proposed method consists of two steps: pre & post processing. For ensemble prediction of GloSea5, weights are assigned to the ensemble members based on Optimal Weighting Method (OWM) in the pre-processing. Then, the bias of the results of pre-processed is corrected based on Model Output Statistics (MOS) method in the post-processing. The watershed of the Chungju multi-purpose dam in South Korea is selected as a study area. The results of evaluation indicated that the pre-processing step (CASE1), the post-processing step (CASE2), pre & post processing step (CASE3) results were significantly improved than the original GloSea5 bias correction (BC_GS5). Correction performance is better the order of CASE3, CASE1, CASE2. Also, the accuracy of pre-processing was improved during the season with high variability of precipitation. The post-processing step reduced the error that could not be smoothed by pre-processing step. It could be concluded that this methodology improved the ability of GloSea5 ensemble weather forecast by using ANFIS, especially, for the summer season with high variability of precipitation when applied both pre- and post-processing steps.
