  • 산지유역에서 토사공급과 이동에 관한 문제는 동적지형학뿐만 아니 수문학적 순환의 입장에서 매우 중요하다. 토사유출 자연의 개변정도등 지형학적 요인에 크게 지배된다. 본 연구에서는 강우시 자연의 개변정도가 서로 다른 유역에서 유출되는 부류토량을 비교하여 부류토사 유출과정과 메타니즘을 알아 보았다. 강우강도가 유사한 30mm의 비가 내렸을때 채석장이 분포하고 있는 인공개변유역의 부유토사농도는 최고 27,000mg/l인 반면, 백연유역의 부유토사농도는 270mg/l에 불과해 100배 정도의 농도차이가 나타났다. 또 인공개역중에서도 인공개변도에 따라 최대부유토사양도 6,400mg/l에서 27,000mg/l까지 다양하게 관측되었다. 일반적으로 부유토사 공급원은 자연유역의 경우 하상, 하안, 그리고 하도주변하도입이며, 인공개변유역은 사면등의 하도외 지역이다.

  • Some of the mariculture grounds near Ongjin-gun, Korea, were designated as mariculture management areas in 2007. Areas are so designated when the environmental quality of the mariculture ground deteriorates or there is an outbreak of hypoxia or harmful red tide that kills mariculture organisms. We surveyed the water and sediment quality and examined the mortality of mariculture organisms in the Ongjin-gun mariculture area. In a survey conducted in 2016, the water quality was better than the environmental quality standards for mariculture grounds, excepts for dissolved inorganic nitrogen, and the sediment quality was good. However, there was still mortality of mariculture organisms in some of the designated management areas. The areas that met the environmental quality standards should be delisted and the areas in which we observed mortality should be classified as management areas. This will enable the sustainable development of aquaculture and preserve healthy mariculture grounds.

  • 퇴적물이 수층의 영양염 분포에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해서 퇴적물의 용출률을 정확하게 측정할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서 퇴적물 용출률 측정 방법 중 퇴적물 코어 배양법을 대상으로 용출률의 측정 조건과 실험 절차를 제시하였다. 낙동강 수계 중류에서 2015년 7월에 표층이 교란되지 않은 퇴적물 코어 시료를 채취하여, pre-incubation 시간(6, 12, 24시간), 초기 산소농도(포화도 90, 70 50%), 확산경계층의 두께(0, 0.6-0.8, 1.2-1.4 mm), 배양 온도(10, 17, 20, $25^{\circ}C$) 등을 여러 가지 조건으로 조성하여 측정한 영양염 용출률의 결과를 그 바탕으로 하였다. 네 가지 주요 환경 조건이 달라지면, 안정화 시간 동안 유기물 분해 및 산화 과정에 의한 화학 조성 변화, 퇴적층의 산화-환원 환경 변화에 따른 흡착 및 탈착, 퇴적물-수층 경계면에서의 수리역학적 상황 변동에 의한 물질 교환 증감, 퇴적물 내 미생물의 활성 증가 등을 야기하여 퇴적물의 영양염용출률에 영향을 미친다. 따라서, 퇴적물 코어 배양법으로 실제 현장값과 유사한 결과를 생산하기 위해서는 현장 심수층의 수온 및 용존산소 농도, 유속을 자연 상태와 가깝게 재현하고 퇴적물 시료 채집 후 되도록 빠른 시간 안에 배양 실험을 수행해야 한다. 두 개의 반복구에 대하여 퇴적물 코어 배양법으로 영양염 용출률을 측정하였을 때 대부분의 실험 조건에서 상대백분율차가 20% 이하였다. 측정 조건과 절차를 엄밀히 준수하여 실험하였을 때 정밀도를 확보할 수 있는 것으로 사료되며, 향후 측정 결과의 정확도를 확인하기 위하여 현장 측정법과 비교할 예정이다.

  • To predict changes in the marine environment of the Beolgyo Stream Estuary in Jeonnam Province, South Korea, where cohesive tidal flats cover a broad area and a large bridge is under construction, this study conducted numerical simulations involving tidal flow and cohesive sediment transport. A wetting and drying (WAD) technique for tidal flats from the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) was applied to a large-scale-grid hydrodynamic module capable of evaluating the flow resistance of structures. Derivation of the eddy viscosity coefficient for wakes created by structures was accomplished through the explicit use of shear velocity and Chezy's average velocity. Furthermore, various field observations, including of tide, tidal flow, suspended sediment concentrations, bottom sediments, and water depth, were performed to verify the model and obtain input data for it. In particular, geologic parameters related to the evaluation of settling velocity and critical shear stresses for erosion and deposition were observed, and numerical tests for the representation of suspended sediment concentrations were performed to determine proper values for the empirical coefficients in the sediment transport module. According to the simulation results, the velocity variation was particularly prominent around the piers in the tidal channel. Erosion occurred mainly along the tidal channels near the piers, where bridge structures reduced the flow cross section, creating strong flow. In contrast, in the rear area of the structure, where the flow was relatively weak due to the formation of eddies, deposition and moderated erosion were predicted. In estuaries and coastal waters, changes in the flow environment caused by artificial structures can produce changes in the sedimentary environment, which in turn can affect the local marine ecosystem. The numerical model proposed in this study will enable systematic prediction of changes to flow and sedimentary environments caused by the construction of artificial structures.

  • To investigate the distribution characteristics of grain size and organic matter of surface sediments from the Nakdong-Goryeong Mid-watershed, surface sediments were collected and analyzed. The samples were collected from six sited at four different times between May 2013 and May 2014. The were analyzed for grain size, water content, ignition loss, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon and total nitrogen. The surface sediments were mainly composed of medium sand (mean 44.7%) and coarse sand (mean 32.8%) and became coarser in May 2014. Fine sediments at the site NG-2 were poorly sorted and positively skewed, and occur in a tributary environment that is relatively low-energy compared with the other sites. The water content at the studied sites (15.3 ~ 34.9%) averaged 20.25%, and ignition loss (0.4 ~ 5.8%) and total nitrogen (274 ~ 2493 mg/kg) averaged 1.33% and, 696 mg/kg, respectively. These values indicated that the sediments were not seriously contaminated when compared with the sediment pollution evaluation standard of the National Institute of Environmental Research. The chemical oxygen demand (mean 0.17%) was at the non-polluted level compared with United States Environmental Protection Agency sediment quality standards. The total organic carbon (mean 0.18%) at all sites except site NG-2 (lowest effect level) was the no effect level of the Ontario sediment quality guidelines. The COD/IL (0.02 ~ 0.20) and C/N (0.73 ~ 6.76) were less than 1 and 10, respectively. Organic matter in the study area produced naturally from aquatic organisms. Results of principal component analysis showed that fine sediments (very fine sand and silt) were significantly affected by organic matters (ignition loss, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon and total nitrogen). In addition, the highest organic matters content in the study area occurred at the site with the finest sediments (NG-2).

  • Significant soil erosion and water quality degradation issues are occurring at highland agricultural areas of Kangwon province because of agronomic and topographical specialities of the region. Thus spatial and temporal modeling techniques are often utilized to analyze soil erosion and sediment behaviors at watershed scale. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model is one of the watershed scale models that have been widely used for these ends in Korea. In most cases, the SWAT users tend to use the readily available input dataset, such as the Ministry of Environment (MOE) land cover data ignoring temporal and spatial changes in land cover. Spatial and temporal resolutions of the MOE land cover data are not good enough to reflect field condition for accurate assesment of soil erosion and sediment behaviors. Especially accelerated soil erosion is occurring from agricultural fields, which is sometimes not possible to identify with low-resolution MOD land cover data. Thus new land cover data is prepared with cadastral map and high spatial resolution images of the Doam-dam watershed. The SWAT model was calibrated and validated with this land cover data. The EI values were 0.79 and 0.85 for streamflow calibration and validation, respectively. The EI were 0.79 and 0.86 for sediment calibration and validation, respectively. These EI values were greater than those with MOE land cover data. With newly prepared land cover dataset for the Doam-dam watershed, the SWAT model better predicts hydrologic and sediment behaviors. The number of HRUs with new land cover data increased by 70.2% compared with that with the MOE land cover, indicating better representation of small-sized agricultural field boundaries. The SWAT estimated annual average sediment yield with the MOE land cover data was 61.8 ton/ha/year for the Doam-dam watershed, while 36.2 ton/ha/year (70.7% difference) of annual sediment yield with new land cover data. Especially the most significant difference in estimated sediment yield was 548.0% for the subwatershed #2 (165.9 ton/ha/year with the MOE land cover data and 25.6 ton/ha/year with new land cover data developed in this study). The results obtained in this study implies that the use of MOE land cover data in SWAT sediment simulation for the Doam-dam watershed could results in 70.7% differences in overall sediment estimation and incorrect identification of sediment hot spot areas (such as subwatershed #2) for effective sediment management. Therefore it is recommended that one needs to carefully validate land cover for the study watershed for accurate hydrologic and sediment simulation with the SWAT model.
