This study aims to test the feasibility of combined use of EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) hydrodynamic model and WASP7.3 (Water Quality Analysis Program) model to improve accuracy of water quality predictions of the Yongdam Lake, Korea. The orthogonal curvilinear grid system was used for EFDC model to represent riverine shape of the study area. Relationship between volume, surface and elevation results were checked to verify if the grid system represents morphology of the lake properly. Monthly average boundary water quality conditions were estimated using the monthly monitored water quality data from Korean Ministry of Environment DB system. Monthly tributary flow rates were back-routed using dam discharge data and allocated in proportion to each basin area as direct measurements were not available. The optimum number of grid system was determined to be 372 horizontal cells and 10 vertical layers of the site for 1 year simulation of hydrodynamics and water quality out of iterative trials. Monthly observed BOD, TN, TP and Chl-a concentrations inside the lake were used for calibration of WASP7.3 model. This study shows that EFDC and WASP can be used in series successfully to improve accuracy in water quality modeling. However, it was observed that the amount of data to develop inflow water quality and flow rate boundary conditions and water quality data inside lake for calibration were not enough for accurate modeling. It is suggested that object-oriented data collection systems would be necessary to ensure accuracy of EFDC-WASP model application and thus for efficient lake water quality management strategy development.

Present condition of the Youngsan River pollution is serious. Concentrations of organic materials and nutrients are high and algal bloom takes place frequently. The pollution is mainly caused by domestic wastewater input from urban areas like Kwangju and Naju City. In this study, 6 times of water quality surveys were done for mainstream and tributaries. Delivery ratios of each tributaries are calculated with the water quality and flow data. With Arc/View GIS, sub-basin are divided and pollution loads are estimated. These data are used for water quality modeling. River quality improvement effects are analysed with 5 scenarios including process upgrade of present WWTPs and construction of new WWTPs. These scenarios are applied for the Youngsan River based on the 7Q10 and Q275. And total wastewater treatment cost in the basin is analysed for each scenario.

Water quality problems in rivers, lakes, and estuaries have become serious in Korea. In order to overcome eutrophication of freshwater lakes and river basins, systematic management of water quality is necessary. To manage water quality in freshwater lakes and basins, apply hydrological models suitable for the basin and water quality models such as rivers and lakes to reduce water pollution based on the prediction results of these models. Improvement measures must be presented. In order to apply appropriate water pollution improvement measures in the watershed, accurate pollution sources must be identified and pollution loads must be predicted and presented. Based on GIS, the connection between the pollutant database and the hydrological and water quality prediction model will be integrated based on spatial location, making it possible to provide systematic support to improve watershed water quality by comprehensively including the water quality modeling process. In this paper, in order to accurately predict water pollution in freshwater lakes and river basins, a water quality model system is established using GIS-based spatial information to present a comprehensive water quality management method for freshwater lake basins in the future, and to systematically manage pollution sources through water quality modeling. This study was conducted to easily and efficiently operate hydrological and water quality models using automated spatial information.

Soil decontamination process was conducted to study adsorption and modeling characteristic of Sr$^{2+}$ ion using citric acid and water system with TRIGA soil. When the concentration of citric acid was increased, the BTC of Sr$^{2+}$ ion was to be closed to the BTC of $^3$$H_2O$ at experiments of soil adsorption. Beside, when the concentration of citric acid was under 0.01M Sr$^{2+}$ ion, BTLs was asymmetry. It was characteristic of nonequilibrium adsorption. R and $K_{p}$ , were decreased to be increased the concentration of citric acid. Asymmetry modeling was nearly the same to be compare with symmetry modeling in decontamination process, when the concentration of citric acid was decreased. Result of experiment was agree with asymmetry and symmetry model, when the concentration of citric acid was increased.eased.

Numerical simulations have been carried out on the flooding system of a dry located at the south coasts of Iran. The main goals of seawater flow haracteristics in the intake channels conditions of the flooding system are imposed in the modeling. The upstream boundary condition is the tidal fluctuations of sea water level. At the downstream, the gradually rising water surface elevation in the dry described in a transient boundary condition. The numerical results are compared with available laboratory a good agreement is obtained. The seawater discharge through the flooding system and the required time to filling up the dry dock is determined at the worst case. The water current velocity and pressure on the rigid boundaries are discussed.

Aim of this research was to investigate the effects of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for sensitivity analysis with two types of DEMs: 1 to 24,000 and 1 to 250,000 DEM. Another emphasis was given to the development of methodology for processing DEMs to create ArcGIS Pro and GRASS layers. This was done while developing water quality system modeling using DEMs which were used to model hydrological processes and SWAT model. Sensitivity analysis with DEMs resulted in different runoff volumes in the model simulation. Runoff volume was higher for the 1:24,000 DEM than 1:250,000 DEM, probably due to the finer resolution and slope which increased the estimated runoff from the watershed. Certainly the DEMs were factors in precision of the simulations and it was obvious during sensitivity analysis that DEMs had significant effect on runoff volumes. We suggest, however, that additional comparative research could be conducted involving more parameters such as soil and hydrologic parameters to provide insight into the overall physical system which the SWAT model represents.

The purpose of this study is to estimate overall reliability and applicability of the watershed modeling for systematic management of point and non-point sources via water quality analysis and prediction of runoff discharge within watershed. Recently, runoff characteristics and pollutant characteristics have been changing in watershed by anomaly climate and urbanization. In this study, the effects of watershed scale were analyzed in runoff and water quality modeling using HSPF. In case of correlation coefficient, its range was from 0.936 to 0.984 in case A(divided - 2 small watersheds). On the other hand, its range was form 0.840 to 0.899 in case B(united - 1 watershed). In case of Nash-Sutcliffe coefficient, its range was from 0.718 to 0.966 in case A. On the other hand, its range was from 0.441 to 0.683 in case B. As a result, it was judged that case A was more accurate than case B. Therefore, runoff and water quality modeling in minimum watershed scale that was provided data for calibration and verification was judged to be favorable in accuracy. If optimal watershed dividing and parameter optimization using PEST in HSPF with more reliable measured data are carried out, more accurate runoff and water quality modeling will be performed.
