In recent years, interest in river environment such as riparian landscape, water quality and ecological conservation has been growing with increasing recreation on agricultural river watershed. That caused the increase of necessity of water resources development, one of solutions for the diversification of agricultural water demand and shortages. In this respects, heightening irrigation dam, as a part of the 4-major river restoration project, is necessary to secure not only additional agricultural water but also instream flow for water quality improvement. However, operation plan of irrigation dam still not be clear. In this study, additional storage which secured through heightening irrigation dam was estimated using SWAT model. And instream flow effects on water quality of downstream were evaluated. The findings show that the additional water supply will contribute positively to water quantity and quality of downstream. The results show a 2~10% water quality improvement effect on nutrients, as well as an 1~8% water quantity increasing effect. In particular, additional storage can be effectively supplied from February to April by the reservoir operation. However, maintaining better water quality in irrigation reservoirs is important because the water quality of irrigation reservoirs can be negatively impacts the water quality in downstream of reservoirs.

국내 농업용수 수요량 산정에 있어서 논벼 수요량은 수정 Penman (Modified Penman: MP) 방법에 의한 증발산량을 기반으로 산정하고 있으나, 최근 국제식량농업기구 (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations: FAO) 및 국내 농진청 등에서는 Penman-Monteith (PM) 방법에 의한 증발산량 산정방법을 채택하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 논벼 수요량 산정에 있어 우리나라 실제 현장여건에 적합한 논벼 증발산량 산정 방법을 제안하고자 기존에 적용하고 있는 MP 방법과 최근에 국내외적으로 제안되고 있는 PM 방법에 의한 논벼 수요량 산정 결과를 실질적으로 벼 생산에 공급된 저수지 공급량 자료와 비교 분석을 통해 현장 적용성을 평가해 보았다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 농진청에서 PM 증발산량 작물계수를 도출한 현장실험지구를 포함하는 호남지역을 대상으로 저수지 100 만톤 이상의 한국농어촌공사 관리지역 중 농업용수 공급량 자료가 신뢰성 있는 대표지구를 선정하였다. 농업용수 실제 공급량 자료를 기반으로 두 증발산량에 의한 논벼 수요량 산정 결과를 비교 분석한 결과, MP 방법에 의한 수요량이 PM 방법에 의한 수요량 보다 높게 나타났으며, 따라서 MP 방법에 의한 수요량이 PM 방법에 의한 수요량 보다 농업용수 공급량과의 차이가 작게 나타나는 경향을 보였다. 대체적으로 강우량이 적은 지역에서 농업용수 공급량 및 논벼 수요량이 높게 나타났으며, 이러한 결과는 공급량과 수요량간의 관계에도 영향을 미쳐 강우량이 많은 지역에서 강우량이 적은 지역에 비해 농업용수 공급일수가 감소함으로써 공급량과 수요량과의 차이가 적어지는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구 결과로 농업용수 공급량을 기준으로 논벼 수요량 산정에 있어 증발산량 산정방법은 안정적인 농업용수 공급계획과 수리시설 설계에서의 이수안전도 확보차원에서 MP 방법을 채택하는 것이 더 바람직 할 것으로 사료된다. 추가적으로 논벼 수요량 산정은 증발산량 산정방법 외에도 유효우량 산정방법, 수로손실, 재배관리손실 등의 다양한 관련 인자들의 영향을 받기 때문에 증발산량 산정방법과 더불어 이들 인자들에 대해서도 종합적인 평가를 실시하여 논벼 수요량 산정 결과의 신뢰성 확보가 요구된다.

In South Korea, 850 standard watersheds and 7,807 KRF catchment areas have been used as basic maps for water resources policy establishment, however it becomes necessary to set up new standard maps with a more appropriate scale for the integrated managements of surface water-groundwater as well as water quantity-quality in the era of integrated water management. Since groundwater has a slow flow velocity and also has 3-D flow properties compared to surface water, the sub-catchment size is more effective than the regional watershed for the evaluation of surface water-groundwater interaction. The KRF catchment area, which has averagely a smaller area than the standard watershed, is similar to the sub-catchment area that generally includes the first-order or second-order tributaries. Some KRF catchment areas, which are based on the surface reach, are too small or large in a wide plain or high mountain area. Therefore, it is necessary to revise the existing KRF area if being used as a unit area for integrated management of surface-water and groundwater. A unit watershed with a KRF area of about 5 to 15 ㎢ can be effective as a basic unit for water management of local government considering a tributary composition and the location of groundwater wells, and as well it can be used as a basic tool for water demand-supply evaluation, hydrological observation system establishment, judgment of groundwater permission through a total quantity management system, pollution assessment, and prioritizing water policy, and etc.

This paper studies the problems and improvements of government real estate policies. Moon Jae-in government shifted toward regulation and pledge to curb the tax imposed by speculators. It strengthened regulations on reconstruction and bank loans rather than supply, and raised capital gains taxes. As the government implemented measures, emphasizing political logic rather than the economy, the market is unstable and the economy is in a recession. Land has increased the vicious cycle of problems due to population growth, industrialization, urbanization, and wealth growth. Mis-established land policies not only accelerate land prices, but also accelerate the use of disordered land and lead to disruptions in the trading order. In addition, real estate is so difficult to recover from the land problem that it is difficult to contain water that has been spilled once. This is called the irreversible nature of land. Once the land price rises, it is difficult to regain control and reckless development leads to the destruction of the ecosystem, making it difficult to return. This is why such a complex real estate issue should not be implemented as if it were a punishment in a short period of time with government policies. This paper aims to examine the problems of real estate policies and to examine ways to improve them.

Most land development projects and large scale civil works require a great amount of sand. And sand is also the most favorable material for soft ground improvement. The demand for sand is soaring rapidly due to increased number of projects regardless of its limited supply. Therefore, it is not difficult to predict that sand may become depleted and no longer be available as ground improvement material in the near future. Against this backdrop, developing an inexpensive sand-substitution material with an efficient accessibility will be necessary and urgently called for. So quick lime could be recommended as the substitutional material for sand. Quick lime is now preferred by forward developed nations. If Korea is able to take advantage of its abundant supply, economical efficiency could be achieved through massive production as well as being able to take advantage of utilization of natural resources. In this respect the purpose of this paper was to estimate improvement effect of soft ground though in-situ construction of quick lime pile. In-situ construction was peformed in road construction site of soft clay and in this study quick lime from Dan-yang that was estimated prominently in aspect of engineering characteristics was used. Quick lime piles were installed by 1.5m, 2.0m, 3.0m spacing to confirm improvement effect according to spacing and installed piles are 0.4m in diameter, up to 5m in length and the density of quick piles installed is 1.4 t/㎥. Vibrating wire pore water pressure cell was installed to confirm consolidation characteristics in surrounding of quick lime piles and both laboratory test and field test were carried out to confirm strength increase. In conclusion, soft ground improvement by quick lime piles was confirmed.

The demand for energy is steadily rising because of rapid population growth and improvements in living standards. Consequently, extensive research is being conducted worldwide to enhance the energy supply. Transpiration power generation technology utilizes the vast availability of water, which encompasses more than 70% of the Earth's surface, offering the unique advantage of minimal temporal and spatial constraints over other forms of power generation. Various principles are involved in water-based energy harvesting. In this study, we focused on explaining the generation of energy through the streaming potential within the generator component. The generator was fabricated using sugar cubes, PDMS, carbon black, CTAB, and DI water. In addition, a straightforward and rapid manufacturing method for the generator was proposed. The PDMS generator developed in this study exhibits high performance with a voltage of 29.6 mV and a current of 8.29 µA and can generate power for over 40h. This study contributes to the future development of generators that can achieve high performance and long-term power generation.

Due to the global warming and unstable abnormal climate changes, water resources differences between regions and water shortage are occurring. Therefore, the water resources management is becoming more important for the stable securement of future water supply and demand. Researches on Smart Water Grid (SWG), which is considered as a new method, that can stably secure and maintain the water resources, are actively being conducted but it is still in infancy. Thus, this study aimed to design SWG simulator based on GIS in order to provide integrated water information in web environment. The user's requirements were analyzed for system development and important functions such as SWG current situation checking, future prediction, filtration plant situation checking functions were designed and data expression techniques using GIS and HTML5 were applied to enhance the understanding of the users. Also, when the emergency situations occurred, the solving process of the situations are reproduced to check the solution process using scenario reproduction functions. Use-case, class, sequence diagram, which are a design for real system development and defines the system usage contents of users, were written, and the story board was written to check the final development contents. This study designed a SWG simulator in order to support the water maintenance reacting to climate changes. The development of system is expected to help securing information to deal with emergency situations such as water shortage and help the decision maker to make decision through reproduction of scenario. The major functions were designed for the convenience of water resource manager and producer but new contents for consumers must be developed to enable duplex information transmission.

It is very important to ensure the reliability of dam inflow data, which is critical in planning and managing the supply and demand of water resources in a basin. However, the simple water balance model sometimes results in negative inflows and does not consider the actual inflow characteristics. In this study, to address these issues, the existing water balance formula was modified by considering evaporation which is available for calculation among other outflows. The modified water balance formula was applied to the Soyang Dam. The results showed that the rate of negative inflows decreased in the re-evaluated dam inflow data and it was possible to secure consistency for the total inflow volume. In addition, investigating the water availability in the Soyang Dam watershed based on the water balance concept considering evaporation, it was found that direct water use in the human aspect was about 60%, and the indirect water use in the natural aspect was about 40%. In drought years, it was also confirmed that the proportion of indirect use of water resources increased.
