The objectives of this study were to understand the runoff characteristics of the non-point sources originating from impervious surfaces and to assess their effect on the aquatic environment in the urban areas. The concentration of pollutants (SS, BOD, COD and T-P) except for T-N showed the highest value in runoff from road, and event mean concentration (EMC) also showed high value from road. The pollutants discharged from road showed a higher concentration in the beginning stage (0 ${\sim}$ 30%) of progressive percentage of rainfall. The contribution percentages of non-point sources by load were 44.9% for SS, 11.2% for BOD, 21.4% for COD, 11.4% for T-N and 8.1% for T-P in the total load of pollutant discharged through sewer. From our results, the road was a significant potential source that deteriorated water quality of the streams and lakes in the vicinity of the urban area during the rain period. Therefore, counter plan is required to reduce pollutant concentration on the road from non-point sources in the urban area. Also, since pollutant concentration in the beginning stage of rainfall was quite high, road cleaning seems to be one of the very useful methods to prevent inflowing of pollutants to the aquatic environment.

대부분의 멀티미디어 시스템들의 환경은 수동적인 배경으로 이루어진다. 그러나 가상환경에서 실세계 시뮬레이션에 있어서 지형은 바람이나 비, 구름과 같은 많은 이벤트에 영향을 미친다. 그러므로 지형과 기상 현상 모델링은 현실적인 가상환경을 시뮬레이션 하기 위하여 필요하다. 이러한 모델링에서는 높이와 지역정보 뿐만 아니라 온도와 습도와 같은 환경적 요소도 중요하다. 하나의 이벤트는 전제조건, 절차, 결과로 이루어지며, 이벤트의 결과가 다른 이벤트의 전제조건을 만족하는 형식의 인과관계를 통하여 여러 가지 이벤트들이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 등고선을 이용하여 자연현상 시뮬레이션에서 환경이 되는 개체들의 범위와 속성들을 표현하고 이를 통해 자연현상 이벤트를 표현하는 방법을 제시한다.

Landslides pose significant threats to many countries globally, yet the development and implementation of effective landslide early warning systems (LEWS) remain challenging due to multifaceted complexities spanning scientific, technological, and political domains. Addressing these challenges demands a holistic approach. Technologically, integrating thresholds, such as rainfall thresholds, with real-time data within accessible, open-source software stands as a promising solution for LEWS. This article introduces LandScient_EWS, a PHP-based program tailored to address this need. The software facilitates the comparison of real-time measured data, such as rainfall, with predefined landslide thresholds, enabling precise calculations and graphical representation of real-time landslide advisory levels across diverse spatial scales, including regional, basin, and hillslope levels. To illustrate its efficacy, the program was applied to a case study in Medellin, Colombia, where a rainfall event on August 26, 2008, triggered a shallow landslide. Through pre-defined rainfall intensity and duration thresholds, the software simulated advisory levels during the recorded rainfall event, utilizing data from a rain gauge positioned within a small watershed and a single grid cell (representing a hillslope) within that watershed. By identifying critical conditions that may lead to landslides in real-time scenarios, LandScient_EWS offers a new paradigm for assessing and responding to landslide hazards, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of LEWS. The findings underscore the software's potential to streamline the integration of rainfall thresholds into both existing and future landslide early warning systems.

국제원자력기구(IAEA)에서 주관하는 국제비교프로그램 EMRAS-2($\underline{E}$nvironmental $\underline{M}$odelling for $\underline{RA}$diation $\underline{S}$afety, Phase 2)의 도시오염평가분과에서는 도시지역의 방사성핵종 거동 모델에 대한 평가능력의 시험과 향상을 위해 방사능사고 시나리오를 설계하였다. 모델간 예측결과의 비교를 위해 선정된 도시지역에서 방사능오염 사건이 발생한 계절(여름철, 겨울철) 및 사건이 발생한 당일의 강우조건(강우 없음, 약한 강우, 강한 강우)을 고려하였고, 각기 다른 피폭자 위치에서의 다양한 대응행위에 대한 공기중 흡수선량률의 시간에 따른 변화를 분석하였다. 국내모델 METRO-K를 사용한 예측결과가 모델간 비교를 위해 도시오염평가분과에 제출되었다. 본 논문에서는 동 시나리오에 대해 METRO-K로 예측한 결과의 일부로써 대상 도시지역에 위치한 24층 상업용 건물의 1층 실내에서의 대응행위에 따른 선량저감의 효과를 제시하고 분석하였다. 평가 결과, 방사능오염 사건이 발생한 당일의 강우강도 및 계절에 따른 대응행위별 피폭저감 효과는 분명한 차이를 나타냈다. 이는 방사성핵종의 각기 다른 표면으로의 침적량과 침적 후 거동, 적용되는 대응 행위에 대한 저감효과의 차이에 기인한 것으로 분석된다. 이러한 결과로 부터 만일의 원자력발전소 사고나 방사능분산장치의 폭발 등과 같은 불의의 사건이 발생하여 도시지역에서 방사능오염이 발생될 경우, 방사능피폭에 따른 인체위해 뿐 아니라 경제 사회적 영향을 최소화하기 위해서는 사건이 일어난 시점의 계절 및 강우조건을 고려한 대응행위의 선택이 중요한 것으로 확인되었다.

The direct-runoff of South Korea's representative dams (Soyanggang, Chungju, Andong, Daecheong, and Seomjingang) and precipitation were analyzed mainly with the evenly distributed spring rainfall events across the country for the last five years. For precipitation, an increasing was presented during the period 2008-2011, but did not continue to increasing 2012. The average precipitation of the five dams displayed a similar trend. Except for Chungju and Andong Dams, the trend of runoff was similar to the one shown in the precipitation. Despite the precipitation of 2009 increased, the runoff volume decreased for Andong and Chungju Dams. In addition, Chungju Dam remarkably showed a bigger runoff volume compared to other dams. As for the Sumjingang Dam, the runoff volume was the smallest, and the difference is as great as over 15-fold when compared to other runoff values. After the result of analyzing the relation between a single runoff event and synoptic weather patterns, pattern 4 contributed to the greatest impact on this event and weather patterns. The total runoff volume of the five dams for spring rain event for the last five years that exhibited this characteristic was estimated at 5.68 billion tons($10^6m^3$). Lastly, the value of this estimation was assessed as approximately 273.1 billion KRW.

Consequences of an anticipated Beyond Design Basis Accident (BDBA) Long-Term Station Blackout (LTSBO) event with complete loss of grid power in the VVER-1200 reactor of Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) of Unit-1 are assessed using the RASCAL 4.3 code. This study estimated the released radionuclides, received public radiological dose, and ground surface concentration considering 3 accident scenarios of International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale (INES) level 7 and two meteorological conditions. Atmospheric transport, dispersion, and deposition processes of released radionuclides are simulated using a straight-line trajectory Gaussian plume model for short distances and a Gaussian puff model for long distances. Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) to the public within 40 km and radionuclides contribution for three-dose pathways of inhalation, cloudshine, and groundshine owing to airborne releases are evaluated considering with and without passive safety Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) in dry (winter) and wet (monsoon) seasons. Source term and their release rates are varied with the functional duration of passive safety ECCS. In three accident scenarios, the TEDE of 10 mSv and above are confined to 8 km and 2 km for the wet and dry seasons, respectively in the downwind direction. The groundshine dose is the most dominating in the wet season while the inhalation dose is in the dry season. Total received doses and surface concentration in the wet season near the plant are higher than those in the dry season due to the deposition effect of rain on the radioactive substances.

본 연구에서는 Z - R 관계식의 매개변수 결정을 위한 확률대응법(Probability Matching Method, PMM)의 적용성을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 먼저, 확률대응에 적합한 반사도와 강우강도의 자료 수와 히스토그램의 구간 간격을 결정하기 위한 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 확률대응법으로 매개변수를 결정할 경우 1,000개의 자료쌍이 구축되어야 한다는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 약 2시간 정도 수집된 자료 수에 해당한다. 또한, 히스토그램의 구간 수는 100 구간 정도가 되어야 한다는 것을 확인하였다. 아울러 확률대응에는 반사도와 강우강도의 누가확률 차이보다 1차 모멘트 차이를 이용하는 것이 양호한 결과를 얻을 수 있고, 30~100% 구간을 대응하는 것이 적합하다는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 비슬산 레이더로 관측한 실제 호우사상에 대해 확률대응법으로 매개변수를 결정하였다. 추정된 매개변수를 이용하여 결정한 레이더 강우는 전체적으로 지상강우보다 크게 산정되었다. 하지만, 이러한 결과는 레이더 강우와 지상 강우를 쉽게 대응하기 어려운 기존의 연구 결과를 고려하면 감안할 수 있는 부분으로 본 연구에서 평가한 확률대응법이 비교적 기존의 Z - R 관계식 보다 호우사상에 적합한 레이더 강우를 산정할 수 있다고 판단하였다.

The characteristics of trace metals were investigated in the sediments of the Mokpo coastal area, southwestern coast of Korea. Surface sediments were collected in September 3, 2002 after a strong rain event. The sampling sites were categorized into the inner and outer harbour based on salinity distribution and difference of trace metal concentration was evidence between these two zones. The enrichment factor (E' F) of Zn and Cr were high at the mouth of Mokpo Harbour and $E \cdot F$ of Cu was high at the east-south of Dali Island. One hundred percent of Mn and Pb samples and $40\%$ of Zn samples had E' F higher than 1 suggesting that they are accumulated in the entire outer of Mokpo Harbour. Trace metals appeared to be accumulated in the inner harbour by input of sediments in the discharged freshwater from Young-San River during strong rainfall whereas they were influenced by natural sedimentation and human activities in part.

Pollution loading of Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs) is frequently over the capacity of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) receiving the water. The objectives of this study are to investigate water quality of CSOs in Anmyun-ueup, Tean province and to apply Storm Water Management Model to predict flow rate and water quality of the CSOs. The capacity of a local WWTP was also estimated according to rainfall duration and intensity. Eleven water quality parameters were analyzed to characterize overflows. SWMM model was applied to predict the flow rate and pollutant load of CSOs during rain event. Overall, profile of the flow and pollutant load predicted by the model well followed the observed data. Based on model prediction and observed data, CSOs frequently occurs in the study area, even with light precipitation or short rainfall duration. Model analysis also indicated that the local WWTP’s capacity was short to cover the CSOs.

In this paper, runoff characteristics of South-Han river watershed in terms of refractory organic matters were investigated. The concentrations of DOC, POC, R-DOC, R-POC in runoff and flow rates were determined by monitoring 27 times in dry season and 4 times in rainy season. The concentrations of the dissolved refractory organic matter, R-DOC was the lowest in fall and similar in the other dry seasons. The particulate refractory organic matter, R-POC showed less fluctuation than R-DOC. In summer, mass loading was the highest than other dry seasons. The concentrations of R-DOC, R-POC were showed to be affected by runoff volume. The mass loading grows higher as runoff volume gets higher.
