A calculation model of reservoir pressure field distribution around multiple production wells in a heavy oil reservoir is established, which can overcome the unreasonable uniform-pressure value calculated by the traditional mathematical model in the multiwell mining areas. A calculating program is developed based on the deduced equations by using Visual Basic computer language. Based on the proposed mathematical model, the effects of drainage rate and formation permeability on the distribution of reservoir pressure are studied. Results show that the reservoir pressure drops most at the wellbore. The farther the distance away from the borehole, the sparser the isobaric lines distribute. Increasing drainage rate results in decreasing reservoir pressure and bottom-hole pressure, especially the latter. The permeability has a significant effect on bottom hole pressure. The study provides a reference basis for studying the dynamic pressure field distribution before thermal recovery technology in heavy oilfield and optimizing construction parameters.

The purpose of this study was to understand the unique and complicated feature of urban stream receiving various inflows. The Yangjae stream, the second tier of the Han River, runs through the southern parts of Seoul, Korea and its middle part flows on the boundary of Seoul where land use is actively changing. Stream flow was greatly influenced by rainfall. Other than rainfall events, effluent discharge from wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) comprised 51 % of stream flux. As a result, majority ions water chemistry was changed at the receiving zone of the discharged effluent (Zone A). Its contribution increased to 69.9 % at the second sampling period with low stream flow. In the middle zone, inflows from the northern area, recently developed to a residential district showed low $NO_3-N$ and high $HCO_3$, Ca, $SO_4$, and $SiO_2$ indicating the effects of groundwater and concrete. One inflow (T-8), with extremely high Na and Cl, median $SiO_2$, was assessed to have anthropogenic influence, however its contribution to main stream was under 1 %. Road construction near Y-13 also affected water chemistry leading to the highest Na and Cl concentration. These hydro chemical changes can be critically used to evaluate the changes in water budget and fate of chemicals in a peri-urban watershed occasioned by human activities on the Yangjae.

The information of flow regimes continues to be norm in water resource and watershed management, in that stream flow regime is a crucial factor influencing water quality, geomorphology, and the community structure of stream biota. The objectives of this study were to estimate Korean stream flows from landscape variables, classify stream flow gages using hydraulic characteristics, and then apply these methods to ungaged biological monitoring sites for effective ecological assessment. Here I used a linear modeling approach (MLR, PCA, and PCR) to describe and predict seasonal flow statistics from landscape variables. MLR models were successfully built for a range of exceedance discharges and time frames (annual, January, May, July, and October), and these models explained a high degree of the observed variation with r squares ranging from 0.555 (Q95 in January) to 0.899 (Q05 in July). In validation testing, predicted and observed exceedance discharges were all significantly correlated (p<0.01) and for most models no significant difference was found between predicted and observed values (Paired samples T-test; p>0.05). I classified Korean stream flow regimes with respect to hydraulic and hydrologic regime into four categories: flashier and higher-powered (F-HP), flashier and lower-powered (F-LP), more stable and higher-powered (S-HP), and more stable and lower-powered (S-LP). These four categories of Korean streams were related to with the characteristics of environmental variables, such as catchment size, site slope, stream order, and land use patterns. I then applied the models at 684 ungaged biological sampling sites used in the National Aquatic Ecological Monitoring Program in order to classify them with respect to basic hydrologic characteristics and similarity to the government's array of hydrologic gauging stations. Flashier-lower powered sites appeared to be relatively over-represented and more stable-higher powered sites under-represented in the bioassessment data sets.

The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries has been promoting the 'Fishing Village Specialization Capacity Enhancement Project' to pursue sustainable development of villages such as income generation by using local tangible and intangible resources led by local residents at the village level since 2013. For the fishing village-Specialization capacity enhancement project, six training sessions (mainly in the village unit) are selected by the public offering method, and the project (income generating business, village development project, etc.) is developed for the selected village residents. It has a process of establishing a village project plan (a preliminary plan for village development or a sixth preliminary industrialization plan) based on the training of experts 5 times, practice or excursion 1 time). In this study, four villages in Gangwon-do fishing villages (two coastal villages and two inland water villages) were surveyed on the perception and satisfaction of fishing village development projects before and after training. The survey analysis was conducted by dividing the analysis of resident capacity and satisfaction into personal, interpersonal, and social dimensions. The survey was conducted by distributing a survey before and after training, and a 1:1 survey was conducted according to the residents' cognitive status. Based on the survey, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and analysis using the corresponding sample t-test showed an increase of 0.02 for Yangyang Mulchi fishing village, 0.11 for Samcheok Jangho fishing village, and 0.36 for Hongcheon River fishing industry, but Yanggu Jinmok fishing industry was -0.29, unlike other regions. As a result of this analysis, it has been empirically proven that provision of training projects through resident participation is a very important factor for the success of the fishing village project. Therefore, rather than fostering local leaders, training and community activities to strengthen personal capacities of residents participating in the project, it is necessary to operate the software business with a focus.

Disposal of waste containing heavy metals into the environment is a major threat to human health and can result in toxic or chronic poisoning in aquatic life. In the current study, metal-resistant Raoultella ornithinolytica was isolated from metal-contaminated samples collected from the Tanjaro River, located southwest of Sulaymaniyah, Iraq. R. ornithinolytica was identified by partial amplification of 16S rRNA. The uptake potency of heavy metals was assessed using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and indicated that R. ornithinolytica removed 67, 89, 63.4, 55.6, 56.5, 65, and 61.9% of Cd, Pb, Cr, Ni, Zn, Co, and Fe, respectively. These removal rates were influenced by temperature, pH, and contact time; at 35℃ and pH 5 with a change in the incubation time, the reduction rate improved from 89 to 95% for Pb, from 36.4 to 45% for Cu, and from 55.6 to 64% for Ni. Gene analysis indicated that R. ornithinolytica contained pbrT, chrB, nccA, iroN, and czcA genes, but the pcoD gene was absent. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) images showed evidence of metal ion binding on the cell wall surface with different rates of binding. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) detected different mechanisms for metal particle localization; cell surface adsorption was the main mechanism for Pb, Zn, and Co uptake, while Cd, Ni, and Fe were accumulated inside the cell. The current study describes, for the first time, the isolation of R. ornithinolytica from metal-contaminated water, which can be used as an eco-friendly biological expedient for the remediation and detoxification of metals from contaminated environments.

Recently, the frequency and range of algae occurrence in major rivers and lakes are increasing due to the increase in water temperature due to climate change, the inflow of excessive nutrients, and changes in the river environment. Abnormal algae include green algae and red algae. Green algae is a phenomenon in which blue-green algae such as chlorophyll (Chl-a) in the water grow excessively and the color of the water changes to dark green. In this study, a 3D virtual world of digital twin was built to monitor and control water quality information measured in ecological rivers and lakes in the living environment in real time from a remote location, and a sensor measuring device for water quality information based on the Internet of Things (IOT) sensor. We propose to build a smart water environment service platform that can provide algae warning and water quality forecasting by predicting the causes and spread patterns of water pollution such as algae based on AI machine learning-based collected data analysis.

Simultaneous investigations for drift bottle and dye diffusion experiment were carried out in Suyeong bay. Seawater in Suyeong bay flowed differently in the vicinity of Suyeong river estuary and Nam-cheon Dong respectively. The speed of current did not exceed one knot in this bay. The dye patch moved to Kwangan beach in the dye diffusion experiment. The relationship between apparent diffusivity and diffusion time was appeared as Ka=0.0025t super(1.9). The variance was calculated to be 2.9 power of the diffusion time. And the exponent diffusivity versus the scale of diffusion time was appeared to be 1.3.

Because pile behavior is governed by geotechnical characteristics of surrounding soils, it is therefore necessary to monitor ground responses during pile driving and analyze the relation between the behaviors of pile and ground. In this research, the 57 m long PHC pile was driven into deep soft clay in the Nakdong River estuary area. During and after the pile driving, the ground responses and the residual load of pile have been monitored for about a year, by using piezometers, inclinometers, level posts for surface settlement, and strain gauges in piles etc. As the results, the residual load by the negative skin friction along the pile increased with the dissipation of the excess pore pressure, which was developed by pile driving and reclamation. About 30% of the maximum residual load developed due to the dissipation of the increased excess pore pressure during the driving. It is thus emphasized that most piles driven in clay deposits need to be designed by considering negative skin friction along the pile.

기상학적 측면에서 강수 부족으로 인한 수생태환경(하천), 호소환경(저수지) 및 유역환경(중권역)으로 미치는 환경학적 가뭄의 영향을 평가하기 위한 시도는 매우 중요하다. 만약 동일한 규모의 강수부족 현상이 발생할지라도, 환경적 측면에서의 수질 및 수생태에 미치는 영향이 매우 큰 유역이 있고, 반면 어느 정도의 복원력을 유지할 수 있는 유역이 있을 것이다. 즉, 서로 다른 유역환경에 따라 가뭄으로 인한 환경적 영향은 달라질 가능성이 크며, 이처럼 환경적 가뭄에 취약한 지역을 위해서는 지속적인 환경가뭄 모니터링이 중요하다. 환경적 측면에서 가뭄의 영향을 평가하기 위해서는 다양한 수질 관련 항목을 연계한 환경가뭄 감시가 중요하며, 이와 더불어 가뭄과 관련한 다양한 이해관계자 간의 효율적인 의사결정 도구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 다양한 시나리오 정보를 제공할 수 있는 베이지안 네트워크 모형을 적용하여 환경가뭄 민감도 평가 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 본 모형에서는 수질 문제가 가장 심하게 대두되고 있는 낙동강 유역을 대상으로, 기상학적 가뭄에 의한 수생태 및 환경 관련 변수들(BOD, T-P, TOC)의 복잡한 상호의존성을 파악할 수 있는 베이지안 네트워크 모형을 활용하였다. 또한, 기상학적 가뭄에 의한 상류와 하류 간의 환경적 영향을 연계하여 해석하기 위한 모형을 구축하였다. 그 결과, 기상학적 가뭄으로 인한 환경적 민감도가 크게 나타나는 중권역(예: 임하댐유역)과 이와 반대인 중권역(예: 병성천유역)의 구분이 가능하였다. 또한, 상류에서 발생한 심한 기상학적 가뭄이 하류 지역 내 환경적인 영향을 지속할 가능성이 있음을 확인되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 방법은 환경적 가뭄의 취약지역을 우선 선정하고, 나아가 상-하류 간의 환경적 가뭄을 감시하는 데 있어 활용도가 있을 것으로 기대된다.

우리나라는 최근 도시화 및 산업화 등과 같은 유역개발이 가속화되면서 유역환경의 급격한 변화를 가져왔다. 도시화는 지표면의 불투수 면적을 증가시키고, 농업지역의 확대는 비료 및 농약의 사용을 증가시키고, 강우시 토양침식에 따른 흙탕물과 비점오염원의 수계 유출로 인해 수질악화 등의 문제를 야기시킨다. 이와 같은 유역환경의 변화는 수질에 직접적인 영향을 끼치므로, 미래 토지이용의 변화에 따른 하천유역의 유출특성과 영향 인자를 규명해야 효율적인 하천유역관리를 할 수 있다. 하지만 우리나라는 기후적 특성상 계절에 따른 수질 및 기후변수의 편차가 크기 때문에 하천유역관리에 있어 어려움이 많다. 특히 남한강 유역은 산림 및 고랭지밭 비중이 높은 지역이며, 여름철에는 강우로인한 토양침식이 심각하여 수질 및 수생태계 건강성을 악화시킨다. 남한강 상류 유역에는 송천과 도암호, 골지천과 같은 비점오염관리지역이 위치하고 있으며 현재까지도 하천유역관리가 어려운 지역에 해당한다. 본 연구는 남한강 유역에 위치한 17개 수질측정망을 대상으로 GIS시스템을 이용해 17개의 소권역으로 나누어 분석하였다. 토지이용자료는 환경공간정보 서비스의 2010년대 말 자료를 이용하였으며, 수질 자료는 유역환경 변화에 영향을 미칠 것이라 판단되는 수질 변수를 선별하여 10년동안의 장기간 수질 데이터를 이용하여 분석하였다. 16개의 수질변수는 정규성을 검증한 후 pairwisse t-test를 이용한 시기별 수질의 차이를 비교하였으며, 수질변수들과 토지이용매개변수 간에 상관관계를 찾아 유의관계가 있는지 확인함으로써 서로 다른 변수간에 상관성을 파악하고자 하였다. 유역의 특성별 상관도를 평가하고 해석하기 위하여 주성분 분석(Principal component analysis, PCA)을 실시하였다. 통계적 방법을 통해 시기에 따른 수질과 토지이용간의 관계를 밝힘으로써 미래하천유역관리에 기초자료로 활용될 것이다.
