This study carried out several kinds of investigations such as geology, hydrogeology, groundwater level and quality, surface-water quality, and the quantity and quality of groundwater discharge from the subway to identify the causes of groundwater contamination around the subway tunnel at Suyeong District in Busan City. Geostatistical analyses were also conducted to understand the characteristics of groundwater level and quality distributions. There are Kwanganri Beach and Suyeong River in the study area, which are basically influenced by seawater. The total quantities of groundwater utilization and groundwater discharge from the subway tunnel in Suyeong District are 2,282,000 $m^3$/year, which is 2.4 times larger than the sustainable development yield of groundwater. The lowest groundwater level around the subway tunnel is about 32 m below the mean sea-level. The large drawdown of groundwater led to the inflow of seawater and salinized river water toward the subway tunnel, and therefore the quality of groundwater didn't satisfy the criteria of potable, domestic, agricultural and industrial uses. Distribution maps of groundwater level and qualities produced by kriging were very useful for determining the causes of groundwater contamination in the study area. The distribution maps of electrical conductivity, chloride and sulfate showed the extent of seawater intrusion and the forceful infiltration of the salinized Suyeong River. This study revealed that seawater and salinized river water infiltrated into the inland groundwater and contaminated the groundwater around the subway tunnel, because the groundwater level was seriously drawdowned by groundwater discharge from the subway tunnel. The countermeasure for the minimization of groundwater discharge from the subway tunnel is necessary to prevent the groundwater obstacles such as groundwater depletion, groundwater-quality deterioration, and land subsidence.

Zooplankton community dynamics were studied after establishment of an artificial vegetation island (AVI) in Lake Paldang, from April 2005 to November 2006. There were distinct seasonal and inter-annual changes of total zooplankton abundance at the survey site. Total zooplankton abundance rapidly increased in spring and fall, while it remained low throughout winter. During summer, the dynamics of zooplankton community seemed to be largely affected by hydrological parameters such as, precipitation and inflow. Total zooplankton abundance and biomass below AVI was much higher than that of pelagic zone (L1) in Lake Paldang. Copepoda and cladocera represented the main bulk of the zooplankton community from summer to fall at the both sites. Copepods were more dominant at AVI area, while cladocera were more dominant at pelagic zone (L1). Water quality, prey and habitat condition, species competition between zooplankton seemed to play important roles in dominance of the copepoda and cladocera in zooplankton community at AVI area. Our results conclude that artificial vegetation island provide the stable habitat and besides phytoplankton, diverse food to zooplankton, and consequently influence the diversity and richness of zooplankton community.

The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE)-based modeling systems have been widely used to simulate soil erosion studies. However the GIS-based USLE modeling systems have limitation in gully erosion evaluation which is one of the most important factor in soil erosion estimation. In this study, the integrated soil erosion evaluation system using with Sediment Assessment Tool for Effective Erosion Control (SATEEC) system, nLS and Unit Stream Power-based Erosion/Deposition (USPED) model was developed to simulate gully erosion. Gully head location using nLS model, USPED for gully erosion, and the SATEEC estimated sheet and rill erosion were evaluated and combined together with the integrated soil erosion evaluation system. This system was applied to the Haean-myeon watershed, annual average sediment-yield considering sheet, rill and gully erosion was simulated as 101,933 ton/year at the study watershed. if the integrated soil erosion evaluation system is calibrated and validated with the measured data, this system could be efficiently used in developing site-specific soil erosion best management system to reduce soil erosion and muddy water inflow into the receiving waterbody.

겨울철 동해 북부해역은 저층냉수의 형성역으로 간주될 수 있다. 이러한 저층냉수의 형성으로 인한 동해 순환계의 변화를 조사하기 위해 본 연구에서는 실제 해저지형과 흡사한 2층 해양모델을 사용하였다. 먼저 유입-유출만을 고려하여 동한난류의 형성을 살펴보았고, 이후 동해 북부해역에 냉수형성을 고려하여 냉수의 움직임 및 이것이 동한난류에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다 냉수의 형성으로 인한 경계면의 상승은 냉수형성 지역으로부터 내부 Kelvin파의 형태로 전파하여 약 7개월 후에는 동해 전 연안역의 경계면이 상승하게 되어 경압효과를 강화시켜, 점차적으로 상충에는 시계방향의 순환류가, 하층에는 반 시계방향의 순환류가 강화된다. 즉 냉수의 형성으로 인해 상층에는 한국 동해안을 따라 북상하는 동한난류가 강화되며 하층에서는 남향류가 강화되는 결과를 초래한다.

Kim and Lee(2000)는 우리 나라 충주댐의 월 유입량을 EI Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO)과 연관지어 분석한 결과, 엘리뇨가 발생한 해의 가을과 겨울의 유입량은 평년보다 적은 반면, 라니냐가 발생한 해의 가을과 겨울의 유입량은 평년보다 많음을 밝힌바 있다. 본 연구에서는 이런 ENSO와 유입량 사이의 원격상관관계를 저수지 운영에 활용하는 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 즉, ENSO 정보를 추계동적계획법(SDP)의 수문상태변수로 사용하여 충주댐의 월 운영율을 산출하였다. 대안으로, 수문상태변수를 사용하지 않은 SDP로 월 운영율울 또한 산출하였다. 이러한 두 가지 운영율을 모의운영을 통하여 비교함으로써, ENSO 정보를 이용하였을 때의 가치를 검토하였다. 모의운영 결과, ENSO 정보를 이용한 운영울은 발전량과 용수공급의 안정성을 증대시키고 동시에 월류량을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.

This study investigated the occurrences and succession patterns of harmful cyanobacteria, as well as environmental factors, during a 3-year period (September 2012 to August 2015) in the upper region of the Nakdong River around Sangju weir. A total of 27 cyanobacterial taxa were observed in this study, and classified into 26 species and 1 variety belonging to 11 genera, 5 families, and 3 orders. Cell density ranged from 24 to 42,001 cells/ml, with a geometric mean of 33 cells/ml, during the survey period. The dominant orders differed depending on the survey year; order Oscillatoriales in 2013, Chroococcales in 2014 and Nostocales in 2015. An Aphanizomenon bloom occurred in June 2015 at which time the highest cell density of 36,873 cells/ml was detected in the upper region of the Nakdong River, where as the Aphanizomenon spp. cell density (190-1,704 cells/ml) had been low prior to that time. An Aphanizomenon bloom also occurred at around the same time downstream in the Young River, a major inflow branch of the Nakdong River. The Aphanizomenon cell density along the Nakdong River increased markedly after joining of the YoungRiver, indicating that the Aphanizomenon bloom in the YoungRiver caused a bloom in the Nakdong River. Meteorological and environmental parameters, such as very low precipitation, higher water temperature, pH, and TP concentration, and lower TN/TP ratio, in May and June of 2015 than in 2013 and 2014 exerted marked effects on the Aphanizomenon bloom in June 2015 in the Young River.

Severe muddy water problem has been the hot issue in Korea. Because of increased nonpoint source pollutions at Kangwon province, best soil erosion management system is required to reduce inflow of nonpoint source pollutions into the waterbodies. The USLE-based SATEEC system have been developed and enhanced for soil erosion and sediment yield estimation. However, the SATEEC cannot estimate soil depositions depending on topography in the watershed, while the USPED estimates soil erosion and deposition using sediment transport capacity of the surface runoff. In this study, the SATEEC and USPED were used to determine soil erosion hot spot subbasins. For this, 54 subbasins were delineated. In general, soil erosion hot spot subbasins were identified similarly with SATEEC and USPED. However, depending on erosion and deposition patterns in each subbasin. USPED estimated soil erosion hot spot subbasins didn't match those estimated with SATEEC. For some subbasins, much deposition was expected than erosion. This indicates that SATEEC estimated soil erosion values may be overestimated for these subbasins. Thus, care should be taken when understanding soil erosion status in the watershed based on USLE-based SATEEC results. In addition, the USPED results could be used to identify the site-specific soil erosion best management practices. If the USPED and USLE-based SATEEC are combined, it would help determining soil erosion hot spot subwatersheds in economic and environmental perspectives.

This study aims to determine the pollution levels of nine kinds of heavy metals (As, Cd, Cu, Cr, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in Lake Shihwa, which is susceptible to the inflow of pollutants, and the levels of heavy metal exposure in its fish and shellfish. Shihwa Lake's water quality did not exceed the short-term standard for protection of marine ecosystems, but concentrations of As, Cu, Cr, Hg, Ni, and Zn exceeded the long-term standard for protection of a marine ecosystem. In comparison to findings in prior research, performed in 2010, levels of Cr, Ni, As, and Zn are now 4.1 times lower. However, when compared to Saemangeum Lake, the environment is similar to that of Lake Shihwa, Cu, Ni, Hg, Mn, and Zn were 244.4 times higher. The levels of Pb, Cd, and Hg in fish's muscles did not exceed the average values set by the marine safety standard. However, when compared to the fish from the Korean coast, the levels of heavy metals were 9.7 times higher, on average. The levels of heavy metals in fish's livers were on average 26.8 times higher than in the muscles. In the case of shellfish, the levels of Pb, Cd, and Hg did not exceed the standard values, but in comparison to the shellfish from the south coast, the levels of heavy metals were 6.2 times higher on average. In particular, Mn (153.5 times higher) from fish and Cd (14.7 times higher) from shellfish were found in high amounts, indicating a concerning level of these specific heavy metals.

기존 댐저수지 유입량 산정은 수위-저수량곡선에 댐축에서 측정된 수위를 적용하여 시간당 저수량변화를 계산한 후 방류량을 감안하여 산정하고 있으나, 특히 홍수시 저수지내의 수위가 균일하지 않아 유입량 산정 시 오차 원인이 되고 있다. 홍수기 댐 저수지의 운영에 있어서 가장 큰 불확실도를 가지고 있는 유입량의 정확한 모의를 위해서는 유역 상류 유입부 유량뿐 아니라 저수지 내에서의 수위관측 필요하며, 또한 기존 방법에 의한 유입량 계산의 오차 규명 필요하다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 GIS를 이용한 저수지의 저수위-저류량곡선 개선 및 댐저수지 구간별 수위관측을 통한 실시간 홍수 유입량 산정 시스템 도입이 절실히 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서 현행 댐 저수지에서 운영되고 있는 수위관측소를 포함하여 관측지점을 확대하고 실시간 수위관측이 가능한 통신체계를 구축하고자 하였다. 관측지점의 확대는 기존의 문제점을 해결하는데 있어 주요 지점의 수면 프로파일을 구축하여 호내 유입량 산정에 대한 재검토를 진행하고자 하였으며, 이를 위해 구간별 수위 모의가 가능한 HEC-RAS 모형을 이용하여 저수지 내의 수면곡선 분포를 모의하고 저수지 내에서 관측한 수위자료와 비교하였다. 또한 관측된 수위자료의 체계적인 관리 체계 구축을 위해 실시간 모니터링이 가능하고, 통신망의 안전성 확보를 통한 결측 자료가 발생하지 않도록 USN Gateway와 CDMA를 연동하여 통신망을 구성하였다. 나아가, 댐 저수지 유입량 산정에 대한 재검토와 실시간 수위관측 방법에 대한 신기술 도입을 통하여 물관리 부서에 즉시 적용이 가능하도록 유입량 산정 방법과 센서 기술 적용 방법 및 확장성을 제시하였다.
