Here, we investigated fungal microbiota in the understory root layer of representative well-conserved geographically segregated natural wetlands in the Korean Peninsula. We obtained 574,143 quality fungal sequences in total from soil samples in three wetlands, which were classified into 563 operational taxonomic units (OTU), 5 phyla, 84 genera. Soil texture, total nitrogen, organic carbon, pH, and electrical conductivity of soil were variable between geographical sites. We found significant differences in fungal phyla distribution and ratio, as well as genera variation and richness between the wetlands. Diversity was greater in the Jangdo islands wetland than in the other sites (Chao richness/Shannon/Simpson's for wetland of the Jangdo islands: 283/6.45/0.97 > wetland of the Mt. Gariwang primeval forest: 169/1.17/0.22 > wetland of the Hanbando geology: 145/4.85/0.91), and this variance corresponded to the confirmed number of fungal genera or OTUs (wetlands of Jangdo islands: 42/283> of Mt. Gariwang primeval forest: 32/169> of the Hanbando geology: 25/145). To assess the uniqueness of the understory root layer fungus taxa, we analyzed fungal genera distribution. We found that the percentage of fungal genera common to two or three wetland sites was relatively low at 32.3%, while fungal genera unique to each wetland site was 67.7% of the total number of identified fungal species. The Jangdo island wetland had higher fungal diversity than did the other sites and showed the highest level of uniqueness among fungal genera (Is. Jangdo wetland: 34.5% > wetland of Mt. Gariwang primeval forest: 28.6% > wetland of the Hanbando geology: 16.7%).

일본의 상하수도 사업은 국토교통성(하수도)과 후생노동성(상수도)으로 크게 양분되어 있으며, 환경성이 수질을 담당하는 체제로 이루어져 있다. 이는 수량과 수질을 분리하고 있는 우리나라와도 크게 다를 바가 없다. 그러나 중앙에서의 다원적인 분리와는 또 다른 차원으로 지방자치단체에서는 상하수도 통합이 급속도로 진행되고 있다. 이는 기후변화라는 지구적 환경의 변화와 더불어 해외 물산업에 대한 경쟁력이 밑바탕이 되면서 가속화되고 있다. 즉, 아시아의 신흥국을 중심으로 급격한 경제발전에 따른 인구가 증가하면서 정수장 및 하수처리장의 건설과 더불어 누수 및 도수(盜水) 문제가 현재화하면서 이에 대한 운영관리기술의 도입이 시급해졌기 때문이다. 이러한 과제를 해결할 수 있는 충분한 기술과 경험을 보유하고 있는 일본의 지방자치단체가 해외 물산업을 전제로 지자체 내의 상하수도 통합을 추진하고 있다. 본 연구는 이처럼 이원적으로 이루어지고 있는 일본 상하수도 업무의 법제도적 차이를 살펴보고, 특히 지자체를 중심으로 전개되고 있는 상하수도 통합과정의 동향과 의의를 풍중시((豊中市)토요나까시)의 사례를 중심으로 살펴보았다. 풍중시(豊中市)는 2008년 상하수도 통합을 천명하면서 기존의 운영방침에서 크게 탈각하는 정책을 취하게 되었고, 이 정책을 통하여 시의 지속가능한 발전 및 위기관리체제를 일신하고, 나아가 기후변화에의 대응력 강화에까지 그 범위를 확장하고 있다. 지자체의 상하수도 통합논의가 가속화되는 반면, 일본 중앙 정부에서는 아직 이렇다 할 움직임을 보이지는 않고 있다. 이는 부처간의 이견차이가 큰 부분인 만큼 쉽사리 제도적인 변경으로 움직이기는 어려울 것이다. 그러나 밑으로부터의 이러한 거대한 개혁움직임과 그 동인의 정당성을 확보해가고 있는 과정을 감안한다면 정부차원의 상하수도 통합이 완전히 부정되기도 어렵다. 상하수도 통합논의와 관련한 일본의 사례는 향후 우리나라 상하수도 정책을 재검토할 수 있는 계기가 될 것이다.

Industrial control systems consist of various physical devices such as sensors, actuators. Security Infringement such as waterworks facilities Remote Access Infringement and power control systems Infection have been occured by vulnerability of Access Control. Access control to physical devices must be fulfilled with a reliable system. However, Having a single access control system inside company can not guarantee reliability. In addition, when single access control is struggled with error or infringement, access control system is totally unavailable. so system requires a additional access control method or system. In this paper, we proposed access control mechanism for reliable and stable operation using blockchain and smart contract. Proposed Mechanism using trust score to consider resources to be consumed depending on each industrial environment in consideration of the industrial control system where availability is more important than integrity and confidentiality. Unlike other blockchain-based access control system, proposed system is designed for the currently operating industrial control system.

In this paper, to reduce the unpaid rate of local governments, the internal data elements affecting the arrears in Water-INFOS are searched through interviews with meter readers in certain local governments. Candidate data affecting arrears from national statistical data were derived. The influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable was sampled by examining the disorder of the dependent variable in the data set called information gain. We also evaluated the higher prediction rates of decision tree and logistic regression using n-fold cross-validation. The results confirmed that the decision tree can find more accurate customer payment patterns than logistic regression. In the process of developing an analysis algorithm model using machine learning, the optimal values of two environmental variables, the minimum number of data and the maximum purity, which directly affect the complexity and accuracy of the decision tree, are derived to improve the accuracy of the algorithm.

The free residual chlorine of tap water samples, collected from 266 faucets on the water pipe network in Daegu City, was between 0.1 and 0.79 mg/L. On microorganic tests, general bacteria and the coliform goup were not detected and thus the tap water was turned out to be fit to drink. In particular, samples of which free residual chlorine was 0.1 mg/L and over were cultured in R2A agar media at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 days, and as a result heterotrophic bacteria were detected in 65.9% of samples; (1). The closer tap water got to the faucet from the stilling basin, the lower residual chlorine concentration became but the more the bacterial count became. And, more bacteria were detected in the R2A agar medium than in the PCA medium. (2). In the case of separated strains, most colonies were reddish or yellowish. 16S rRNA sequence was identified as Methylobacterium sp. and Williamsia sp., and yellow strain was identified as Sphingomonas sp., Sphingobium sp., Novosphingobium sp., Blastomonas sp., Rhodococcus sp. and Microbacterium sp. White strain was identified as Staphylococcus sp. (3). Sterilized tap water in polyethylene bottles was inoculated with separated strain and was left as it was for 2 months. As a result, bio-film was observed in tap water inoculated with Methylobacterium sp. and Sphingomonas sp. It was found that heterotrophic bacteria increased when free residual chlorine was removed from tap water in the water pipe network. Thus, there is a need to determine a base value for heterotrophic bacteria in order to check the cleanliness of tap water in the water pipe network.

Water Distribution Networks, one of the social infrastructures buried underground, has the function of transporting and supplying purified water to customers. In recent years, as measurement capability is improved, a number of studies related to leak recognition and detection by applying a deep learning technique based on flow rate data have been conducted. In this study, a cognitive model for leak occurrence was developed using an LSTM-based deep learning algorithm that has not been applied to the waterworks field until now. The model was verified based on the assumed data, and it was found that all cases of leaks of 2% or more can be recognized. In the future, based on the proposed model, it is believed that more precise results can be derived in the prediction of flow data.

Freeze and burst water meter in winter causes many social costs, such as meter replacement cost, inability of water use, and secondary damage by freezing water. The government is making efforts to modernize local waterworks, and in particular, is promoting SWM(Smart Water Management) project nationwide. In this study suggests a new freeze risk notification information service based on the temperature by IoT sensor inside the water meter box rather than outside temperature. In addition, in order to overcome the quantitative and regional limitation of IoT temperature sensors installed nationwide, and AI based temperature prediction model was developed that predicts the temperature inside water meter boxes based on data acquired from IoT temperature sensors and other information. Through the prediction model optimization process, a nationwide water meter freezing risk information service was convinced.

Long-term droughts and frequent spring droughts are causing damage to crops, which are the means of livelihood of residents of the Yeoncheon region. To analyze the degree of drought in Yeoncheon, the ratio of monthly precipitation and discharge was reviewed through observed data, and the standardized precipitation index and streamflow drought index were calculated. As a result of drought analysis using precipitation and discharge observation stations near the Yeoncheon basin, it was analyzed that the drought that occurred in 2014 was common to all drought indices and that drought occurred continuously until 2019, either large or small. In the case of drought indices with a duration of 12 months, it is expected that the damage caused by the drought would be severe as the drought period lasted 24 months. In order to manage drought damage, it is important to understand and predict the current state of drought. In order to cope with drought in advance, it is urgent to implement an integrated operation management strategy for rivers and waterworks structures according to the degree and duration of drought.

Climate change has a broad impact on the entire water environment, and this impact is growing. Climate adaptation in water supply systems often involves quantity and quality control, but there has been a lack of research examining the impacts of climatic factors on water supply productivity and operation conditions. Therefore, the present study focused on, first, building a database of climatic factors and water purification operating conditions, and then identifying the correlations between factors to reveal their impacts. News big data was analyzed with keywords of climatic factors and water supply systems in either nationwide or region-wide analyses. Metropolitan area exhibited more issues with cold waves whereas there were more issues with drought in the Southern Chungcheong area. A survey was conducted to seek experts' opinions on the climatic impacts leading to these effects. Pre-chlorination due to drought, high-turbidity of intake water due to rainfall, an increase of toxins in intake water due to heat waves, and low water temperature due to cold waves were expected. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted based on meteorological data and the operating data of a water purification plant. Heavy rain resulted in 13 days of high turbidity, and the subsequent low turbidity conditions required 3 days of high coagulant dosage. This insight is expected to help inform the design of operation manuals for waterworks in response to climate change.
