Abstract

The Hapchon Dam, located upstream of the Hwang River, Korea, was constructed in December, 1988. Due to the lack of storage of water, the dam gate has not been operated during last ten years. Thus, a new ecosystem has been established at the downstream part of the dam. This is not a common phenomenon which can be found elsewhere in the country. The present study investigates the effect of flow regime change on the river morphology and vegetation cover in the downstream river reach after the dam construction. The analysis of flow regime is carried out, and the changes in bed elevation and in channel cross sections are examined. Site investigations including tree ring tests are also performed. The increase in the vegetation cover is estimated by comparing aerial photographs taken before and after dam construction.

황강 상류에 위치한 합천댐은 1988년 12월에 완공되었다. 완공 이후 댐의 저수량 부족으로 10여년간 수문을 통한 방류가 없었기 때문에, 댐 하류부에 새로운 생태계가 조성되었다. 이러한 현상은 국내 다른 지역에서 찾아보기 힘든 매우 특이한 사항이다. 본 연구에서는 댐 건설로 인한 유황변화에 따른 하천의 지형학적 변화와 식생 피복상태의 변화에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 하상고 및 하천수로단면의 변화를 조사하였다. 또한 나이테 분석을 포함한 현지조사를 수행하였다. 또한 댐 건설 전ㆍ후 대상유역의 항공사진을 비교하여 댐 건설 후 식생피복이 증가한 것을 확인하였다.
