Abstract

Natural streams meander, forming pools at the outer part of bend and riffles at the crossing. Pools are deep at a lower flow velocity, and riffles are shallow at a higher flow velocity. Attentions are being paid to pool-riffle sequences in meandering streams because pool-riffle sequences tend to increase biodiversity of the stream ecosystem. This study investigates the characteristics of distribution of bed sediment particles in the upstream reach of the Gap Stream, which is a tributary of the Geum River in Korea. The upstream part of the Gap Stream, the study reach, is a gravel-bed stream, showing a pool and three riffles due to meandering. The reach also includes pools at the upstream and downstream parts of the weir. The characteristics of bed sediment particles sampled at the wetland and in the side channel are studied, revealing that the median particle diameter in the riffle is about four times larger than that in the pool. In addition, flow simulations are carried out for ordinary discharge and design flood, and such parameters important to sediment transport as velocity, shear stress, dimensionless shear stress (or Shields number), and dimensionless shear velocity are provided to see the mobility of sediment particles in the pool-riffle sequence.

자연하천은 사행을 보이며 만곡부 외측에 웅덩이 그리고 만곡과 만곡을 연결하는 직선 유로에 여울이 형성된다. 웅덩이는 수심이 깊으며 유속이 느리고, 여울은 수심이 비교적 얕고 유속이 빠른 특징이 있다. 사행유로를 따라 자연적으로 발달하는 웅덩이-여울 연속구조에 근래들어 관심이 집중되는 이유는 이러한 하천형태학적 구조가 생물학적인 다양성을 증가시키기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 금강의 지류인 갑천 상류구간을 대상으로 웅덩이-여울 연속구조에서 하상토의 입도특성을 조사하였다. 대상구간인 갑천 상류부는 자갈하천으로 사행에 의한 웅덩이 1개소와 여울 3개소를 포함하고 있으며, 구간 상류측에 보로 인해 상하류에 형성된 웅덩이 2개소가 위치한다. 아울러 조사대상 구간의 습지 및 샛강에서 채취한 하상토의 입도특성도 살펴보았는데, 여울에서의 중앙입경이 웅덩이에서보다 약 4배 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 평수량 및 홍수량에 대하여 부등류 계산을 실시하여, 유사이동에 중요한 웅덩이와 여울에서 평균유속, 전단응력, 무차원 전단응력(Shields 수), 그리고 무차원 전단속도를 검토하였다.
