Fish fauna and community structure were investigated at 2003, 2004 and 2006 in Lake Paldang and its inflows. In this survey, we collected 54 species belong to 14 families. Family Cyprinidae take 51.9% (28 species), Cobitidae and Gobiidae occupied 7.4% (each 4 species), respectively. E. erythropterus (11.8%) was dominant species and L. macrochirus (10.2%), designated as an ecosystem-invasive alien fish species by Ministry of Environment, M. yaluensis (9.1%), Z. platypus (7.7%) and R. brunneus (6.7%) were dominated in turn. H. molitrix, C. lutheri, P. altivelis, S. microdorsalis, L. costata. S. gracilis majimae, A. rivularis, P. koreanus. S. scherzeri and O. platycephala were rare species (less than 0.1% in relative abundance). In-lake area, 36 species of fishes belonging to 11 families were collected, and 48 species of 13 families were from inflows. The number of Korean endemic species were 19 species (35.2%), and 4 kinds of exotic species (7.4%), that is, C. cuvieri, H. molitrix, L. macrochirus and M. salmoides were found at this survey area. It was revealed by the analysis of fish community that diversity and richness indices were prominent at tributaries, and dominance index was high at the main body of Lake Paldang. Fish fauna showed rapid decline after dam construction which make the mid-Han river systems to lentic ecosystem, so many of meander-riffle fishes were disappeared dramatically. But after 1990s when installation of small scale wastewater treatment plants started in watershed, the water quality of small tributaries was improved. And also, expansion of the natural macrophytic vegetation of littoral zone should contribute to the development of diverse fish fauna in Lake Paldang.

The main purpose of this study is to suggest and evaluate an operational method for assessing the potential impact of climate change on hydrologic components and water resources of regional scale river basins. The method, which uses large scale climate change information provided by a state of the art general circulation model(GCM) comprises a statistical downscaling approach and a spatially distributed hydrological model applied to a river basin located in Korea. First, we construct global climate change scenarios using the YONU GCM control run and transient experiments, then transform the YONU GCM grid-box predictions with coarse resolution of climate change into the site-specific values by statistical downscaling techniques. The values are used to modify the parameters of the stochastic weather generator model for the simulation of the site-specific daily weather time series. The weather series fed into a semi-distributed hydrological model called SLURP to simulate the streamflows associated with other water resources for the condition of $2CO_2$. This approach is applied to the Yongdam dam basin in southern part of Korea. The results show that under the condition of $2CO_2$, about $7.6\% of annual mean streamflow is reduced when it is compared with the observed one. And while Seasonal streamflows in the winter and autumn are increased, a streamflow in the summer is decreased. However, the seasonality of the simulated series is similar to the observed pattern and the analysis of the duration cure shows the mean of averaged low flow is increased while the averaged wet and normal flow are decreased for the climate change.

A grid based physically distributed model analyzes rainfall-runoff using physical parameters and grid-typed spatial and hydrological data. This study have developed a real time runoff modelling system using GRM RT(Grid based Rainfall-runoff Model Real Time) which is a real time flow analysis module in GRM, a grid based physically distributed rainfall-runoff model. Weather radar data received in real time are calibrated by using real time AWS from Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA), and they are applied to real time runoff modeling. And the runoff model is calibrated by using observed discharges from a water level gauge in real time. This study have designed and implemented the databases necessary to construct the real time runoff modelling system, and established the process of a real time runoff modelling. And the performances of the developed system have been evaluated. The system have been applied to Nerinheon watershed located in the upstream of Soyanggang Dam and the application results are evaluated.

For reliable water quality simulation by semi distributed model, accurate daily runoff simulation should have preceded. In this study, newly developed channel routing method which is nonlinear storage method is combination of Muskingum routing method and variable storage routing method and temporally weighted average curve number method were applied for effect analysis of water quality simulation. Developed modules, which are added in SWAT models and simulation, were conducted for the Chungju dam watershed. The simulation result by each module applied effect. As a result of analysis contribute water quality modeling, nonlinear storage method is more effective than temporally weighted average curve number method. Nutrient loading discharge was affected by development of runoff delaying from improvement of channel routing, because of characteristics of nonpoint source pollution.

The fact that soil loss causing to increase muddy water and devastate an ecosystem has been appearing upon a hot social and environmental issues which should be solved. Soil losses are occurring in most agricultural areas with rainfall-induced runoff. It makes hydraulic structure unstable, causing environmental and economical problems because muddy water destroys ecosystem and causes intake water deterioration. One of three severe muddy water source areas in Soyanggang-dam watershed is Jawoon-ri region, located in Hongcheon county. In this area, many cash-crops are planted at illegally cultivated agricultural fields, which were virgin forest areas. The purpose of this study is to estimate soil loss with current land uses (including illegal cash-crop cultivation) and soil loss reduction with land use conversion from illegal cultivation back to forest. In this study, the Sediment Assessment Tool for Effective Erosion Control (SATEEC) ArcView GIS system was utilized to assess soil erosion. If the illegally cultivated agricultural areas are converted back to forest, it is expected to 17.42% reduction in soil loss. At the Jawoon-ri region, illegally cultivated agricultural areas located at over 30% and 15% slopes take 47.48 ha (30.83%) and 103.64 ha (67.29%) of illegally cultivated agricultural fields respectively. If all illegally cultivated agricultural fields are converted back to forest, it is expected that 17.41% of soil erosion and sediment reduction, 10.86% reduction with forest conversion from 30% sloping illegally agricultural fields, and 16.15% reduction with forest conversion from 15% sloping illegally agricultural fields. Therefore, illegally cultivated agricultural fields located at these sloping areas need to be first converted back to forest to maximize reductions in soil loss reduction and muddy water outflow from the Jawoon-ri regions.

SWAT model usually underestimates daily peak discharges. To resolve this problem, in this study, the algorithm related with the surface flow simulation was modified by partitioning excessive infiltration based on the relative length between overland flow time of concentration and percolation travel time in soil water zone and by computing time of concentration varying with the amount of surface flow. The modified SWAT was applied to the Chungju dam watershed to assess the increasing effects of daily peak discharges. The daily peaks simulated by the modified SWAT were on average 10% higher than those by original SWAT for the peaks above $5,000m^3/s$. The modified SWAT was found to be able to more accurately reproduce daily peaks, particularly showing increase rates of 9.9%, 18.6% and 12.6%, respectively, for top three peaks that occurred in the years of 1990, 2002, and 2006.

금강유역에 대한 기후변화 영향을 기후모형 및 수자원영향평가모형을 통하여 정량적으로 분석하기 위하여 한반도 최적 GCM모형으로 기상청에서 제공하는 ECHO-G GCM모형과 역학적 다운스케일링 기법을 이용한 공간해상도 27km의 지역규모의 MM5 RCM모형을 이용하였다. A1B시나리오 기반으로 고해상도 기후변화 시나리오를 작성하여 분석기간을 2015년대(2001-2030), 2045년대(2031-2060), 2075년대(2061-2090)로 구분하여 미래 연평균강수량, 기온 등을 전망하였고, 과거 30년 자료의 100년빈도 강수량과 미래의 100년 빈도강수량의 변동성을 평가하였다. 기본적으로 GCM 및 RCM은 시공간적 스케일의 상이성으로 인해 수자원 영향 평가를 위한 자료로서 직접적인 이용은 현실적으로 곤란하다는 점에서 본 연구에서는 RCM 격자자료를 유역단위에서 강우관측소 지점 단위로 공간적 Downscaling을 실시하였으며 RCM 월자료에 대해서 일단위 자료로 시간적 Downscaling을 수행하여 기후모델로부터 발생하는 시공간적 스케일의 문제점을 극복하였다. 또한 유역단위의 상세수문시나리오를 생산하기 위해서 다지점 비정상성 Downscaling 기법을 활용하여 기존 일강수량 모의기법에서 간과 되었던 비정상성을 고려하여 미래 기후변화에 따른 강수사상의 변동성을 다양한 방법으로 검토하였다. 2001년~2006년 기간동안 SWAT모형을 이용하여 용담댐유역 용담댐 지점의 유입량과 SWAT의 최종방류부의 유량분석값을 비교한 결과 모의치와 실측치가 90.1% 일치하는 것으로 나타났고, 천천수위관측소 지점의 유량을 모형결과와 비교분석 한 결과에서도 91.3% 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 대청댐 지점의 유입량과 SWAT의 최종방류부의 유량분석값을 비교한 결과 모의치와 실측치가 84.4% 일치하는 것으로 나타나 금강유역내 용담댐 및 대청댐을 대상으로 유출분석 검토 결과 적용성이 있음을 확인하였다. 기후변화 분석기간은 2011년부터 2090년까지 80년을 대상기간 으로 선정하였으며, 분석결과 2011~2020년 사이 유출량이 18%증가하는 것으로 전망되었다.

유역 스케일의 실제 증발산량을 산정하는 대표적인 방법으로 관측 강우량과 유출량의 관계로부터 증발산량을 간접적으로 추정하는 물수지(water balance)법, 증발력과 토양수분량의 변화량 (soil moisture accounting)을 고려한 유역 수문모델링을 이용하는 방법, 잠재 증발산량과 실제 증발산량간 보완관계식(complementary relationship)을 이용하는 방법 등이 있다. 물수지법은 관측치를 기반으로 한다는 점에서 신뢰도가 높다고 할 수 있으나, 기본적으로 유역 저류량의 변화를 무시하기 때문에 연 단위와 같이 긴 시간 스케일에 적용 가능하고 작은 시간 스케일에는 적용성이 떨어진다. 유역 수문모델링을 이용하는 방법은 기상, 토양 및 식물 조건을 모두 고려하는 방법으로 유역의 불균질성을 반영할 수 있고 일 단위 등의 비교적 작은 시간 스케일에 대해서도 증발산량을 산정할 수 있는 장점이 있으나, 수많은 입력자료가 필요하며 간접적인 추정 방식이기 때문에 모형의 정확한 검증과 상당한 숙련도가 뒷받침되어야 한다. 잠재 증발산량과 실제 증발산량간 보완관계식을 이용하는 방법은 토양이나 식물 등의 지표면 조건에 대한 정보를 필요로 하지 않으며 단지 기상자료만을 이용하는 방법으로 적용하기 쉽다는 장점이 있으나 잠재 및 실제 증발산량간의 보완피드벡 매카니즘이 존재한다는 가정이 수반되어 있어 적용시 이를 입증해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 이 처럼 각기 장단점을 가진 여러 방법으로 증발산량을 산정하고 있지만, 각 방법 간의 연결고리를 맺는 연구는 심도 있게 수행되지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 상기 언급한 증발산량 산정 방법 중 보완관계식을 이용하는 방법과 유역수문모형에 의한 방법 간의 연관성을 평가하고자 하였으며, 이를 위해 충주댐 상류유역에 대해서 SWAT-K에 의한 증발산량 모의치가 보완관계식을 따르는 지에 대해 고찰하였다. 모의기간동안 계산된 잠재 및 실제 증발산량을 습윤지수(humidity index)에 따라 함께 도시해본 결과, 연 단위의 경우에는 건조할수록 잠재 증발산량은 점차 커지고 실제 증발산량은 작아지는 것으로 나타나 보완관계가 성립하였고, 월 단위 경우에는 강우에 비해서 비교적 증발산량이 큰 5, 6월에 가장 명확한 관계가 보여 늦은 봄과 초여름에 보완적 관계가 뚜렷하게 발생하는 반면에 동절기에는 보완관계가 성립하지 않는 것으로 나타나는 등 분석 단위기간별로 보완관계의 성립여부를 판별할 수 있었다.

Levee-break Analysis model is developed to predict the variation of breach width according to time and to estimate inundation area and depth in protected lowland. This Model calculate flood depth using 4 point implicit finite difference method in river channel and analyze breach flow based on physical theory introducing soil transport equation and erosion process. Breach analysis model and channel flood model are combined into Levee-Break Model and this model is applied to actual levee break case. Then, this model can simulate reasonably many levee-break parameters such as river stage, breach width, breach formation and so on. If the applicability of this model is proved through applications to more various actual levee-break cases, the suggested model is expected to do more accurate flood analyses on levee break site.

This study investigates differences in hydrological responses to the climatic scenarios resulting from the use of different three hydrological models, PRMS, SLURP, and SWAT. First, the capability of the three models in simulating the present climate water balance components is evaluated at Andong-dam watershed. And then, the results of the models in simulating the impact using hypothetical climate change scenarios are analyzed and compared. The results show that three models have similar capabilities in simulating observed data. However, greater differences in the model results occur when the models are used to simulate the hydrological impact under hypothetical climate change. According as temperature change grows, the differences between model results is increasing because of differences of the evapotranspiration estimation methods. The results suggest that technique that consider the uncertainty by using different hydrological models will be needed when climate change impact assessment on water resources.
