Supposed construction of a large port in the mouth of Tuman River requires careful examination of possible unfavorable ecological consequences for the Far Eastern Federal Marine Reserve. Since the Tuman River is the largest source of suspended material and possible contaminants flowing into the sea, and in order to understand how this material is allocated in the coastal zone, analyses are needed to check possible pathways of water transport and circulation system in the region. Linearized shallow water equations were used for numerical simulation of the wind-driven circulation to the north off the Tuman River mouth. The model results satisfactorily agreed with in situ data. The model circulation patterns are largely dependent on the wind direction and are conformed by the distribution of bottom sediments, and by the location of organic carbon and some pollutants accumulation zones. The most unfavorable situation for the Marine Reserve is the case of the southwesterly wind; even with quite moderate wind, the waters polluted by the run-off from the Tuman River can attain the south section of the Marine Reserve during the diurnal period.

The predictien of a design flood hydrograph at a particular site on a river may be based on the derivation of a discharge or stage hydrograph at an upstream section, together with a method to route this hydrograph along the rest of the river. In order to limit this investigation to cases where the assumption like uniform rainfall may be reasonably valid, the derivation of unit hydrographs has been limited to catchment with an area less than 500 km2. Consequently, flood routing methods provide a useful tool for the analysis of flooding in all but the smaller catchment, particularly where the shape of the hydrograph as well as the peak value is required. The author, therefore, will introduce here a flood routing method on the open channel with a peak discharge of the catchment area concerned. The importance of being able to route floods accurately is also reflected in the large number of flood routing method which have been developed since the year 1900. There are the modified puls method, Steinberg method, Goodrich method, Ekdahl method, Tatum's mean continuously Equation, wisler-Brater method, Muskingum, chung, and Muskingum-cunge (M-C) method and so on. The author will try to introduce a flood routing method which is revised Muskingum-cunge method. In calculating flood routing by the M-C method, whole variable parameters on the river were assumed to almost uniform values from the upstream to the downstream. In the results, the controlled flood rates at the 40km downstream on the river is appeared to decrease 22m$^3$/sec or 12 percent of the peak flood 170m$^3$/sec.

수치모형을 활용하여 하천 흐름을 해석하기 위해서는 하도의 형태를 나타내는 지형자료가 요구되며, 주흐름 방향에 직각 방향으로의 횡단면도는 다량의 자료가 필요하다. 측량을 통한 횡단면도의 확보는 시간과 비용이 많이 소요될 뿐 아니라 날씨와 같은 외부적 요인에 따라 측량 결과물의 정확도가 달라질 수 있다. 또한 하천의 유속이 매우 빠를 때에는 정확도 높은 횡단 측량자료를 얻기는 불가능하며 접근이 어려운 지역이나 중소규모의 하천 측량자료는 구축되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 이에 따라 위성영상과 수치표고모델(Digital Elevation Model, DEM)에 기반하여 하천구역과 하도의 특성을 정의하는 방법이 대안으로 제시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천지형 측량자료가 존재하는 섬진강댐부터 오수천 합류전까지를 대상으로 가상하도 생성기법을 적용하고, 1차원 하천흐름해석을 수행하여 가상하도 구축방안의 유효성을 검토하고자 하였다. 위성영상 자료를 활용하여 하천구역을 정의하였으며 DEM에서 추출된 표고에 기반하여 제방고와 횡단면도를 구축하였다. 구축된 횡단면도와 실단면 비교시, DEM 표고 및 하천구역 정의 지점의 정확도에 따라 제방고가 달라지는 것으로 나타났으며, 홍수터에 대한 고려가 포함되지 않아 실단면과 다소 차이가 있는 것으로 확인된다. 구축한 지형자료를 1차원 하천흐름해석 모형인 K-River에 적용하였으며, 상류단 경계조건으로는 섬진강댐 방류량을 하류단 경계조건으로는 등류조건을 적용하였다. 구축영역 내 존재하는 지류의 유입량은 측방유입으로 고려하였다. 수치모의 결과로부터 구축된 횡단면의 최심고와 실단면의 최심고가 유사한 지점에서는 수위재현성이 양호한 것으로 확인되었다.

The eco-friendly river restoration issue has been increased and the importance of the vegetation along the river banks has been understood with its scenery and significant role. However vegetation reduces the stream flow cross section and brings negative effects such as increase of water flow resistance and decreases of river flow velocity. In this study, the method to choose roughness coefficient is studied in the sudden changed hydraulic characteristics by river restoration. Using the HEC-RAS model and the two-dimensional vertical analysis method, Yangjae stream was calculated that the roughness coefficient of the main channel is 0.011~0.159 after river restoration, 0.031 without vegetation on the flood plain, and 0.034~0.506 with vegetation on the flood plain. The level of water in the river is predicted to rise 0.13~0.34m at 30% of vegetation density increase.

Most of the studies on the hydraulic characteristics of wave-current interaction have used 2-D hydraulic experiments or 2-D numerical simulations. However, it is difficult to understand the wave-current interaction found in actual estuaries using these. Therefore, a numerical water tank was constructed in this study to perform simulations involving a 3-D river mouth. The result showed a change in the water surface at the river mouth from the wave-current interaction. With an increase in the ratio ($V_c/C_i$) between the river current and wave celerity, the wave height and mean water level of the river increased at the wave and current meeting point. A higher $V_c/C_i$ caused a stronger wave-current interaction and increased the turbulence kinetic energy. Thus, the wave height attenuation became larger by the wave-current interaction with a higher $V_c/C_i$. In addition, it was possible to understand the flow characteristics in the vicinity of the river mouth as a result of the wave-current interaction using the mean flow and mean time-averaged velocity at the mid-cross section of river.

This paper presents the numerical simulations of future river bed changes using CCHE2D, a two-dimensional numerical model, for river confluences at the confluences of the Nakdong River and Gamcheon as well as Geum River and Mihocheon. The numerical simulations of future river bed changes were conducted for three years using hydrological data from August 30, 2012, to August 29, 2015 after the Four Major River Restoration Project. The simulation results demonstrated that river bed changes occurred actively near the confluence where sediment deposition was concentrated, resulting in the possibility of point bar formation. Through the numerical simulations, the characteristics of future river bed change was evaluated by investigating the characteristics of bed changes, average bed elevation changes, and the difference between deposition and erosion in the target section. The two-dimensional numerical model is expected to be used in the future to prepare effective stabilization plans for the tributary confluence.

The enlargement and reduction of river channels can not only change the flow of water but also alter sedimentation patterns, thus hindering smooth flood conveyance. Accordingly, this study aims to analyze the effects of the sudden enlargement of river channels on changes in the riverbed and river flow. For this purpose, as part of the "Hometown River" Construction Project, this study examined the local river Kyungpo-cheon, which a section of the river channel was widened by at least two- to three-fold, using RMA-2 and SED-2D models to simulate the changes in flow characteristics and riverbed variation due to the widening of the channel. The results of the study indicated that widening the Kyungpo -cheon river channel secured its dimensional stability in comparison to before widening. however, due to a flood frequency of more than once per year, future maintenance and management will be costly and time-consuming.

In this study, an ecological fragmentation improvement effect from different riverine ecobelt width was analyzed. The target river for this study is the Hongcheon river in Kangwondo. This section of 11 km among the Hongchenon river was reported to be seriously fragmented in the previous literatures. The Hongcheon river of 11 km was divided longitudinally into subsections of 1 km. The analysis through map and aerial photograph as well as field surveys were performed in 11 subsections(A-K). Using the fragmentation index, the connectivity fragmentation such as river bank, road, and land use and the ecological functional fragmentation were evaluated. The results showed that I-section has the highest fragmentation rate. The Hongcheon river in the present status without ecobelt was analyzed to has the fragmentation of 2nd rate from the mean fragmentation value of 11-subsections. Also, when the riverine ecobelt of 10 m-50 m was restored, the improvement effect of connectivity fragmentation was relatively small, while for the ecological fragmentation, the improvement effect of 12.4-25.1% was predicted. Also, the ecobelts of 10 m and 30 m were evaluated to have a relatively great improvement effect. Especially, for the ecobelt of 30m width, the fragmentation rate was mitigated form 2nd rate to 3rd rate.

The Han River serves as an important water resource for the city of Seoul, Korea and in the neighboring metropolitan areas. From the Paldang dam to the Jamsil submerged weir, the 4 water intake stations that are located for the Seoul metropolitan population were under review in this study. Therefore the water quality management in this section is very important to monitor, analyze and review to rule out any safety concerns. In this study, a 3-D hydrodynamic model, EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code), was applied to the downstream of the Paldang Dam in the Han River, which is about 23 km in length, to determine issues related to water resource management. The 3-D grid was composed of 2,168 horizontal grids and three vertical layers. In this case, the hydrodynamic model was calibrated and verified with an observed average daily water surface elevation, water temperature and flow rate data for 3 years (2013~2015). The developed EFDC model proved to reproduce the hydrodynamics of the Han River well. The composition ratios of the noted incoming flows at the monitored intake stations for 3 years and their flow patterns in the river were analyzed using the validated model. It was found that the flow of the Wangsuk Stream depended on the Paldnag dam discharge, and it was noted that the composition ratios of the stream at the intake stations changed accordingly. In a word, the Wangsuk Stream moved mainly along the right bank of the Han River under the condition of a normal dam flow. As can be seen, when the dam discharge rate was low, the incidence of lateral mixing was often seen. The scenario analyses were also conducted to predict the transport of conservative pollutants as in the case of a chemical spill accident. Generally speaking, when scenarios were applied, the arrival time and concentration of pollutants at each intake station was thus predicted.
