As one of the phil-environmental alternative plan of Saemankeum project, gradual development is recommended. The procedure of the Saemankeum project start with the completion of 32 km long sea-dikes which contains two discharge gates until the year 2004. Second step is pre-development of Mangyoung area permitting temporary intrusion of sea water, i.e. tides, by the opening of discharge gate until the environmental evaluation on the water quality of this area secures permanent meet to government's water quality standard. Therefore this study is to predict the future condition of this tidal flat with the point of view tidal environments, salt, water quality, soil mechanics, etc. of Mangyoung area when the sea water still passed in the inland reservoir through the discharge gate.

Numerical model tests are done in order to evaluate impact zone of low salinity water on outer region of the developing Saemankeum reservoir. Also saline mixing processes are investigated f3r the inner reservoir with consideration of Mankyoung and Donjin riverine flood discharges when sea water is passing freely through gate. In these analyses 2-d ADCIRC, 3-d TIDED3D and CE-QUAL-ICM models are used. Through models tests, it is found that inner reservoir mixing process caused by inflow of outer sea water occurs gradually. It takes at least one month for complete mixing on Mankyoung part and 6 month on Dongjin part of the reservoir. When Sinsi or Garyeok gates are opened to control inner reservoir level, discharging velocities decrease exponentially from the gates, but show very strong currents of 0.5m/sec to the 10Km region apart. These results imply that hydrodynamic circulation and ecosystem of frontal region of the Saemankeum dike might be affected in amount by gate operations, since low saline inner waters are discharged periodically at ebb tide according to tidal level.

Recently, a heavy rainfall under climate change causes the flood exceeded river's conveyance. Flood control methods under the limited river width are the increase of embankment, the construction of storage pockets and diversion channel, the dredging of river bed. Hwasun flood control reservoir of washland is designed as the storage pockets and the regulating gate for the control of water level. In this study, the propriety of design was investigated through hydraulic experiments for the circumstances to exclude the constant flood discharge during operation period. In the results, the over flow rate of side weir exceeded the flow of design and indicated to be able to discharge the designed flow in the regulating gate opened 1.1 m. The high velocity 7.1 m/s behind the gate has investigated to reduce under 3.3 m/s by the baffle block.

In this study, it is grasped the status of nutrients through an investigation of release characteristics and physicochemical properties of sediments on reservoir. And then the effect of sediments is evaluated on the water quality in reservoir. In the results of physicochemical analysis, the pollution level of midstream is the highest, which shows the traits that the water is more deeper and takes place a deposition consistently. Then, the pollution level of upstream is higher than downstream's because inflow has influence on the upstream directly. The downstream is located near tidal gate so that the soil particles can be moved easily and are difficult to be deposited due to the distribution of seawater by control of tidal gate. Therefore, the downstream is showed the lowest pollution level than the others. Also, the concentration of SOD(Sediment Oxygen Demand) in the upstream which is influenced on the effect of inflow is highest than the others. When it analyzes under anaerobic and aerobic condition to understand the release characteristic of sediment, it shows that the release rate is low or negative under the aerobic condition. Whereas the release rate is usually positive under the unaerobic condition relatively. According to these results, it is necessary to maintain the proper environmental factors of water body for decreasing the release rate of sediment. Because the release rate is changeable under the different condition of water body. Therefore, proper strategies are required for increasing the self-purification of water as well as keeping the aerobic condition of sediment and managing a sediment layer directly to control the inner-pollution by the sediment of reservoir.

Alone the southwesten coast of Korean peninsula, the extensive available arable acreages suited for forming are found in the development of tidal flats in the geographically curved bays with a motable tidal emplitude. It was found that the developments of these tidal flats cover an estimated area more than 276,000ha. In this paper, a flood control system by Pul's Storage Indication Method and Pul's Graphical Method at Return Periods-50 yrs, design rainfall-267mm per 48hrs and design flood-926c.m.s. and at 0.2meter control height above the High Water Ordinary Spring Tide Level (+11.0m) was studied. At the result, the flood demage in the reservoir at Return Periods-50 yrs and the tidal level at H.W.O.S.T.L. were satisfied to the below E.L. 11.20m (Flood Level in the reservoir). Well skilled flood control technique and management and control of draining sluice gate should be required for the disaster prevention from the flood and tide damage.

Imha Reservoir is connected to Andong Reservoir via a diversion tunnel allowing water to pass between. The diversion tunnel is equipped with screens to exclude exotic largemouth bass due to their predatory impacts on prey assemblages resulting in a degradation of species richness of local fish fauna and extinction of local fish populations in Korea. Flow pattern changes resulting from the fish screens and trash racks were investigated using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. Numerical simulations showed that the decrease in the discharge capacity of the tunnel is approximately 8.6% and the headloss coefficient for fish screen at Andong intake tower was determined to be 1.5. In order not to allow the small fishes enough to pass through the wire openings enter into Imha Reservoir through tunnel, the velocity in the tunnel should be greater than 1.48 m/s which is a critical ascending velocity of the bass. This study suggests that it can keep the velocity higher enough to exclude largemouth bass when a gate opens with the condition of 1.0m difference in water stage between two reservoirs.

지구온단화와 이상기후에 의해 시설물 피해가 나날이 증가하고 있으며, 농촌의 인구감소 및 고령화에 의해 이러한 집중강우등에 대한 대처도 어려운 실정이다. 현재 전국에서 농업용수 공급을 위해 사용하고 있는 농업용 저수지는 17,882개소로서 이 중 축조한지가 35년 이상 경과된 저수지가 15,856개소로서 88.7%나 차지하고 있다. 이러한 현상은 저수지를 구성하고 있는 각종 부대시설의 노후화로 귀결되며 농업용수의 낭비 및 효율적인 운영을 위해서는 시설의 현대화가 필수적이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저수지에서 물을 직접 공급하는 시설인 사통수문을 대상으로 현대화를 이룩하고 또한 사용동력도 대체에너지를 이용하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 사통수문의 수문비는 수중의 압력을 효율적으로 분산시킬 수 있는 원형수문비와 수중에서도 사용동력을 가장 적게 할 수 있는 밸브형을 기준으로 개발을 하였으며, 수문비와 구동부를 연결하는 작동 롯드의 힘전달을 최소화하기 위하여 유니버셜 쪼인트를 볼밸브형으로 개발하였다. 이에 따라서 작동용 롯드의 길이가 길어져도 수문비에 걸리는 작동모멘트를 최소화하여 태양광을 이용한 동력사용이 가능해졌다. 특히 수중에서 움직이는 특성을 감안하여 원형 수문비의 경우에는 수문비와 수문틀 사이에 마찰력을 감소시키기 위하여 수문틀측을 약간 경사지게 가공을 하고 중간에 볼 베이렁을 부착시켜 수문개폐가 원활토록 지수부의 구조변화를 하였다. 또한 농업용수공급시 수류와 함께 유입되는 저수지 내 오물을 차단하기 위하여 수문의 전면에 스크린을 설치하였으며 토사퇴적으로 인하여 수문작동의 방해가 되지 않도록 하기 위하여 토목구조물을 설치하였다. 그리고 동력전달을 효율적으로 하기 위하여 Solar Unit으로부터 나오는 전기를 중전기에서 밧데리로 축전을 시키고 완전 충전 후에는 나머지 전기는 방전이 되도록 회로를 구성하였다. 사통수문 자원조사 결과에 의하면 현재 저수지에 물공급을 하는 수문은 취수탑 형식이 70% 이상을 차지하고 있으며 나머지 30%의 사통수문 중 원형수문비가 98% 이상을 차지하고 있다. 현재 대체에너지를 사용하는 저수지 사통수문은 없는 것으로 조사되었으며 전력을 사용하는 사통도 조사결과에 의하면 20% 이내로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 향후 수리시설 개보수시 적은 예산으로 사업을 시행하는 경우 사통수문의 설치방향의 지표가 될 것으로 판단되며 수리시설의 운영관리에 대한 새로운 대안으로 제시할 수 있다.
