하천은 자연 상태에서 내부분 단일 하천이 아닌 몇 개의 지류가 본류와 만나는 복잡한 하천망을 구성하며 하류로 흘러간다. 이 때 본류와 지류가 만나는 합류부에서는 본류와 지류의 합류각도나 유량에 의해 수리학적인 특성이 매우 민감하게 변화한다. 수리학적 특성에서는 수심이나 유속 등의 흐름에 대한 분석이 있을 뿐 아니라, 유사이동에서의 침식이나 퇴적과 같은 하상변동도 중요하게 고려되어야 한다. 그러나, 지금까지 합류점에 내한 연구가 대부분 물의 흐름 해석에 관한 연구이며, 하상변화에 대한 연구가 상당히 부족하다. 본 실험 연구에서는 본류와 지류의 접근각도를 $60^{\circ},\;75^{\circ},\;90^{\circ}$로 변화시키면서 분석하였으며, 유량비는 1:0.2, 1:0.35, 1:0.5로 변화시키면서 분석하였다. 이때 사용한 모형수로는 본류와 지류의 폭을 1:0.8로 하였으며, 이동상 실험을 위해 입경 1mm인 균일 모래를 이용하여 실험하였다. 그 결과 침식되는 길이는 유량비 및 접근각도가 증가함에 따라 커지는 경향을 나타내고 있으며, 이는 합류부에서의 하상침식에 대한 개선방향으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되고 있으며, 또한 접근각도가 증가함에 따라서는 최심경사는 점차 증가하는 것으로 나타났으나, 유량비가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

하천에서의 유사이송은 하상의 변화를 야기 시키고 하천의 흐름특성에도 영향을 미치는 주요 현상이다. 유사이송은 하상을 구성하고 있는 모래나 점토질 입자가 물의 흐름을 따라 이동하는 것을 의미하는데, 유사 입자가 균일하지 않고 재질 또한 다양하여 입자에 작용하는 외부 힘을 계산하기 힘들기 때문에 유사 이송을 예측하기에는 많은 어려움이 있다. 이런 이유로 좀 더 확실한 유사이송량을 추정하기위한 많은 연구가 수행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 1967년 Engelund와 Hansen에 의해서 개발된 공식을 이용하여 하상변동을 계산하였다. Engelund-Hansen 공식은 총유사량을 산정하는 과정에서 부유사량과 소류사를 구분하여 계산한다. 이 공식은 유사이송 함수를 유도하기 위해 수류력 개념과 상사원리를 이용하였다. 본 연구는 대상유역으로 금강 백제보 인근 10 km 구간을 선정하였고, 모의는 2014년도에 생산된 수문자료를 이용하였다. 유사이송은 대부분이 빠른 유속이 발생하는 홍수기에 집중된다. 그러므로 보다 정확한 하상변동을 파악하기 위해서는 홍수기를 포함한 장기간의 계산이 필요하다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 모의기간을 365일로 결정하였다. 모의결과는 금강을 가로지르는 백제보가 하천의 흐름변화를 야기함에 따라 하류에서는 국부적인 세굴이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 가동보 직하류에서 비교적 많은 세굴이 발생하였고 세굴 된 유사는 인근에 퇴적이 되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이런 국부적인 하상변동은 생태계의 불균형을 가져올 수 있으며, 하천구조물의 내구성을 약화시키는 요인으로 작용한다. 그러므로 이러한 재해를 예방하기 위해서는 하상변동의 예측이 필수적이다.

산 사면의 지반이 붕괴되어 흙, 모래, 자갈 그리고 물 등이 혼합하여 유동하는 토석류는 예측과 대비가 어려운 자연재해 중 하나 이다. 특히, 강우로 인해 발생하는 토석류의 경우 매우 빠르게 유동하기 때문에 피해 예측이 제한적이다. 이러한 토석류가 도심지역 또는 마을주변에서 발생할 경우 많은 인명 및 재산 피해가 발생한다. 따라서 토석류의 유동을 최소화시키기 위해선 1차적으로 수치모형을 통한 전반적인 유동 및 피해 규모 예측이 이루어져야 하며, 이러한 분석을 바탕으로 사방댐과 같은 구조물의 효율적인 설계가 이루어져야 한다. 이에 수치모형을 통해 토석류의 유동을 분석하고자 하는 많은 연구가 진행된 바 있으며, 사방댐 설계 분석 또한 수치모형과 실험을 통해 연구된 바 있다. 선행연구들에 따르면, 1) 발생부로부터의 거리, 2) 토석류 에너지의 감소, 3) 침식-연행 작용, 4) 사방댐의 용량 등이 효율적인 사방댐 설계에 영향을 미친다고 분석된 바 있다. 하지만 위의 항목들에 대한 종합적인 비교분석은 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에선 위에서 제시한 4가지의 항목들을 바탕으로 사방댐 설계에 중요한 요소를 평가하고 산정하고자 한다. 토석류의 유동과 사방댐을 모의분석하기 위해 Deb2D 수치모형을 활용하였으며, Voellmy 유변학적 모형과 침식-연행-퇴적 작용을 분석할 수 있는 알고리즘을 사용하여 토석류의 유동을 현실에 가깝게 모의하였다. 2011년 서울 우면산에서 발생한 산사태 유역들 중에서 래미안 아파트 유역과2019년 강원도 갈남리에서 발생한 산사태를 대상지구로 선정하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 4가지 요소들 중에서 사방댐의 용량이 효율적인 사방댐 설계에 가장 주요한 요인으로 분석되었다.

High-saline ground water, whose eclectrical conductivity value ranges from 12,000 to 21,000 $\mu$S/cm, occurs at the small catchment of Gilsan stream near Geum-river estuary dike. These high-saline ground water comes form three different aquifers consisting of two horizons of sand sediments and one weathered zone with top part of unconformity. For these three aquifers showing mutual independence in terms of hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical connection, we examined characteristics of aqifer occurrences and their water chemistry, and observed and analyzed the fluctuations of the ground water level and electrical conductivity. Our study results indicate that the high-saline characteristics of ground water in this study area should not come from dynamic recent seawater intrusion, but might be due to the fossil saline water included and isolated within the paleo-sediments or weathered zone and their upper unconformity part. This high-saline water seems to be now partially mixed and affected by freshwater in the higher inland reach of Gilsan stream.

The purpose of this study is to develop a science field study area using Geumgang(Geum River), fossil origins and various geological resources in Youngdong area of Chungcheongbuk-do as educational resources; and utilize them to develop an education program to cultivate earth science and topophilia. The Youngdong sedimentary basin (Cretaceous period) has a well-developed outcrop along the Geumgang and it is therefore easy to find various geological structures, plant fossils, and dinosaur fossils. Also, it has a distinct sedimentary structure, such as mud cracks, ripple marks and cross-bedding. Science field study area(6 observation sites) were developed based on school curriculum, textbook analysis, and professional earth science education panel discussion to create a convergence education program. The result of validating the developed program showed that all the items were satisfactory ($CVR{\geq}0.88$) in the test categories. The science field study teaching-learning model was applied to actual classes. The evaluation result for class satisfaction was positive, scoring Rickert scale 4.18. The result of observation about the outdoor classroom process in the science field study area revealed that students were able to form a new image of the beautiful scenery of the Geumgang. Also, the students could gain a new understanding, concept and value of various geological objects (sandy beach, stepping-stones, dinosaur footprint fossils, sedimentary formation), which naturally allowed them to form topophilia.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the contents related to the strata in the elementary science textbooks and to investigate the strata concepts of preservice elementary teachers. As a result of the study, most of the strata knowledge in elementary textbook has an explicit sentence structure, such as A is B. it is limited to being used as a subject of discussion and debate among students in science classes. Formal knowledge, although its meaning is clear, is disadvantageous as a material for core competency education. Regarding strata concepts, 70% of preservice elementary teachers thoughts that heat and pressure were the only key factors in turning sediments into hard rocks. Regarding whether information about the natural information in the geological period can be obtained through the strata, 20% thought that information on the natural environment could be obtained only through fossils and not from the strata. Even 80% of preservice elementary school teachers who thought that informations on the past natural environment could be obtained from the stratum showed a lot of scientific misconceptions in the information contents. In conclusion, in order to increase the effect of core competency education through elementary science education, it is necessary to review the form and contents of strata knowledge presented in elementary science textbooks.

The aims of this study is about distribution characteristics of tidal coastal landforms, and that changing process in the Hampyeung Bay, which has a semi-enclosed bay like basin shape without inflow of stream, the mouth of open sea is narrow and forms with wide ends toward inland sea. The source of deposits are moved materials by tidal currents and from coastal slopes. Main landform elements of study area consist of tidal flat, tidal channels, intertidal sand bar, sea cliffs, and sea terrace. Tidal flats is classified with mud flat and mixed flat by grain size composition. Mud flats have developed at the shoreline area that tidal flat is closed to the continuity of gentle slope, and mixed flat developed at the foot of the sea cliffs and sea terraces. Quaternary deposits were identified in the coastal materials sedimented by the sea-level change. According to the analysis of grain size composition during last ten years, sands and silt has increased 2% and 6% respectively, clay has been decreased by 9%. The concaved tidal flats are colonized by salt plants. Areal changes of salt plants expanded near four times from 2.4km² at the year 2001 to 9.3km² at the year 2009. During the same periods, mean grain size became coarser from 6.5φ to 4.5φ at the salt plants area.

Spatial distribution pattern of macrozoobenthos was studied along the salinity gradient and sedimentary environment in the Watancheon estuary, Beobseongpo, southwest coast of Korea. Ten stations were set from the mouth towards the head of estuary. Three replicate sediment samples were taken using a van Veen grab (surface area $0.1m^{2}$) at each station between June 1998 and January 1999. A total of 114 species were collected during the study period and they are composed of 44 species of polychaetes (39%), 34 of crustaceans (30%), 24 of molluscs (21%) and 12 of miscellaneous. The former two taxa together accounted for 69% in the total number of species. The mean density was 3,053 ind./m$^{2}$, comprising 2,536 ind./m$^{2}$ from polychaetes (83%) and 439 ind./m$^{2}$, crustaceans (14%). Moreover, the mean biomass was 58.23 gwwt./m$^{2}$, consisting of 29.56 gwwt./m$^{2}$ from polychaetes (51%), 23.38 gwwt./m$^{2}$, molluscs (40%). A spionid polychaete Minuspio japonica, two corophiid amphipods Grandidierella japonica and Corophium sinense, a bivalve Potamocorbula amurensis were major dominants at the head of estuary where the salinity was relatively lower compared with contiguous sites. The distributions of M. japonica and G. japonica were significantly related to the salinity and sediment environment, respectively, whereas C. sinense and P, amurensis showed no significance. The nereid polychaete, Hediste japonica, also predominated at the head of the estuary where bottom salinity was relatively low. Species diversity was high at the mouth area whereas low diversity and few species number were seen at the stations in the head of the estuary, influenced by freshwater and sandy sediment. Based on the cluster analysis, the macrobenthic community was classified into four station groups from head (station group A) toward mouth (group D) in the study area. The number of species and abundance between station group B and C were significantly different. And the abundance of between two neighboring station groups (station group A and B, B and C, C and D) was also different. These results suggested that the spatial distribution pattern of macrobenthos in this estuary seemed mainly related to gradients in bottom salinity and sediment grain size among environmental factors.

The environmental change of Yong-nup in Mt. Dae-Am, which is located at the northern part of Kangwon-Do, Korea, was assesed with peat sedimentary carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis. The surface layer of the peat (0 ${\sim}$ 5 cm) was 190 year BP, and the middle layers (30 ${\sim}$ 35 cm and 50 ${\sim}$ 55 cm) were 870 year BP and 1900 year BP, respectively. Bulk sedimentation rate was estimated to be about 0.4 mm $year^{-1}$ for 0 cm to 30 cm and 0.15 mm $year^{-1}$ for 35 cm to 50 cm. The $^{14}C$ age of the bottom sediment (75 ${\sim}$ 80 cm) collected and measured in this study was about 1900 year BP, although it was measured that the $^{14}C$ of the lowest bottom sediment in Yong-nup was 4105 ${\pm}$ 175 year BP (GX-23200). Since the $^{14}C$ ages for 50 ${\sim}$ 55 cm and 75 ${\sim}$ 80 cm layers were almost the same as 1890 ${\pm}$ 80 fear BP (NUTA 5364) and 1850 ${\pm}$ 90 year BP (NUTA 5462), respectively, we have estimated that the deep layers (55 ${\sim}$ 80 cm) in the high moor were the original forest soil. The low organic C and N contents in the deeper layers supported the inference. The sediment of 50 ${\sim}$ 55 cm layer contains much sandy material and showed very low organic content, suggesting the erosion (flooding) from the surrounding area. In this context, the Yong-nup, high moor, of Mt. Dae-Am, might have developed to the sampling site at about 1900 year BP. The ${\delta}^{13}C$ values of organic carbon and the ${\delta}^{15}N$ values of total nitrogen in the peat sediments fluctuated with the depths. The profile of ${\delta}^{13}C$ may indicate that the Yong-nup of Mt. Dae-Am have experienced the dry-wet and cool-warm period cycles during the development of the high moor. The ${\delta}^{15}N$ may indicate that the nitrogen cycling in the Yong-nup have changed from the closed (regeneration depending) system to the open (rain $NO_3\;^-$ and $N_2$ fixation depending) system during the development of the high moor.

The community structure, vertical distribution and harpacticoids composition of the meiofauna community were observed from five stations in Marian Cove, King George Island and one station on the northeastern side of Nelson Island. Sample was taken by a free-fall corer in December 2002. Generally, 11 taxa of meiofauna were found, and meiofauna abundance ranged from 322 to 1575 indiv. $10cm^{-2}$ (mean 781 indiv. $10cm^{-2}$). Nematodes were the most dominant group, making up $89\%$ of total meiofauna, followed by harpacticoids $(6.8\%)$. Benthic harpacticoids appeared 19 species of nine families at all the stations, and most various taxa appeared at station B (13 species of seven families). For vertical distribution, more than $70\%$ of meiofauna was concentrated in the upper $0\~2cm$ sediment layers, and the density abruptly decreased with depth in all the stations. Total biomass of meiofauna varied between 41 and $360{\mu}gC\;10cm^{-2}$, and overall mean biomass was $205{\mu}gC\;10cm^{-2}$. Also nematodes had the highest percentage of total maiofauna biomass $(62.4\%)$. The analysis results of Canonical Correspondence Analysis between meiofauna community and sediment grain size showed that polychaets, oligochaets and cumaceans were influenced by silt&cray, and sand, granule and pebble had a influence on harpacticoids, kinorhynchs and ostracods respectively. But nematodes were not affected by sediment grain size.
