동진강, 만경강 그리고 연안 유역으로 이루어진 새만금유역은 농업이 발달한 지역이지만 유역 내 이용 가능한 수자원량이 부족하여 인근 유역인 금강과 섬진강 유역으로부터 용수를 공급받고 있다. 외부유입량은 연도별 강수량 변화에 따라 편차가 크기 때문에 새만금유역은 극한 가뭄과 홍수에 더욱 취약한 유역이다. 또한, 간척사업으로 새만금 방조제 건설에 따라 유역의 수질 환경이 중요한 지역 사회의 이슈이며 특히 만경강의 경우 심각한 수질 문제를 개선하기 위한 다양한 연구가 수행되어왔다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) 모형을 이용하여 만경강유역으로 들어오는 외부유입량 변화에 따른 유역의 수문 및 수질 변화 양상을 분석하여 수질 문제 개선 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 외부유입량 변동 시나리오는 만경강으로 유입되는 용담댐의 방류량을 이용하였으며, 기존 외부유입량 데이터에 비례하도록 산정하였다. SWAT 모형의 신뢰성 있는 모의를 위해 유역 외부에 위치한 용담댐의 운영을 별도로 고려하였고 취수를 통한 유역 내 농업용수 사용 등을 고려하였다. 수위-유량 관측소의 일자료와 수질관측소의 자료를 이용하여 유출량, SS, T-N, 그리고 T-P에 대한 보정(2012~2014) 및 검증(2016~2018)을 수행하였다. 각각의 검보정지점에 대한 $R^2$, NSE, RMSE을 목적 함수로 사용하여 모형의 적용성을 확인하였고, 이렇게 구축된 SWAT 모형을 기반으로 외부유입량 시나리오에 따른 유역의 수문 수질 변화를 분석하였다.

When we construct the earth structures such as embankments, on soft ground which are consisted of thick marine silty clay, the foundations deform due to consolidation and creep. For the stabilization of the earth structures constructed on soft foundations, we usually uses the mattress and they play an important role in increasing an ultimate bearing capacity by the dispersion of load of embankment. The purpose of this paper was to predict rationally a long term deformation of earth structures and to contribute to embankment design and maintenance. We determined a rheological model of marine clay from experimental data, and developed a computer program using the chosen model and found out the long term behavior of embankment. The results of this paper are as follows: 1. The developed program can analyze simultaneously consolidation and creep. 2. From the results of creep test, the rheological model of marine silty clay can be represented by the Vyalov model. 3. The displacement of embankment on reinforced foundation were smaller than those of the unreinforced foundation in showing the effects of geotextiles on foundation deformations.

This study deals with the geomorphic, environmental and land use changes by comparative analysis using Landsat TM images of 1988 year and ETM ones of 2002 year, partly together with the new Quick Bird images having 60cm resolution for more detail analysis, focusing on the Oncheon gun(county) in Pyeongnam Province, west coast zone of North Korea. The main analysis methodology is neural network classification, which is more advanced techniques for the classification of land cover and land use, with higher accuracy rate and lower errors. The TM images of 1988 year show, mainly, the on-construction tide embank for the reclamation at Gwangryangman bay and salt farm on the reclaimed tidal flat. But, ETM images of 2002 year present stabilized reclaimed land, salt farm and rice field, recently transformed from salt farm. Especially, new tidal land has been naturally developed on the coastal shallow out of tide embank and salt farm. The results of the study may help to database coastal environmental changes and to support for reasonable and productive land use of North Korea, and to manage and plan unified national land in the near future.

This paper examined the changes in flow patterns due to a blockage of tidal currents in the sea areas between Incheon North Port and Yeomha Channel when it would be influenced by the construction of the Incheon North Port Yeongjongdo dredged soil dumping ground and Incheon Bay tidal power plant. The numerical simulation was performed for three cases: before and after constructing the Incheon North Port Yeongjongdo dredged soil dumping ground and after the construction of the sea-dyke on the east side of the Incheon Bay tidal power plant. The simulation results showed that the tidal directions and currents velocity were similar before and after the construction of the Yeongjongdo dredged soil dumping ground. After the construction of the East Sea-dyke of Incheon tide power plant, however, the tidal currents patterns changed significantly due to flow blockage toward Gyeonggi Bay. The main flow was formed in the north-south direction, and the tidal currents velocity increased slightly on the downstream areas (A,B,C) of Hodo, which is the entrance of the Ara Waterway. The tidal currents at the mouth(D) of Yeomha Channel decreased significantly. The tidal currents of the west side of Se-eodo and the east side of the sea-dyke were rotary currents. The results of this study will provide basic data for the environmental impact assessment and the operation of the Gyeongin Ara Waterway.

The origins of beaches at Byeonsan Peninsular, as a pocket type, are classified to a sand barrier type and wave-cut type. The beaches had developed by the deposition of the silt and clay layers on the 10m height from sea level in the inner bay during climax era of postglacial transgression. At that time, some sands had blown toward the inland hills to form aeolian deposits. After postglacial sea-level stabilization, sometimes, there has been the negative budget of beach materials. Recently, beaches have been transformed by human impact such as construction of Saemangeum sea-wall, especially in the Byeonsan and Gosapo beaches being close to the sea-wall. So the speed of tidal currents become slower and comparatively depositoinal activity stronger. And the level of chemical weathering has been higher. In Byeonsan beach, the ratio of coarse sand decreased with higher ratio of finer materials and by beach erosion dissected runnels developed, running parallel to the coastline. In Gosapo beach, supply of suspended materials are increased through the Garyeok drainage gate, the sands tend to be finer.

In order to understand the spatio-temporal distribution of geochemical parametrs in surface sediments of the artificial Lake Shihwa in the vicinity of Kyunggi Hay in Korea, surface sediments were sampled at 14 sites in July 2007 and analyzed by CHN analyzer and ICP/MS. Metal concentrations in the sediments tended to be decreasing from the head to the mouth of the Lake Shihwa because of extreme pollutant discharge from various kinds of anthropogenic sources such as the Banweol and Shihwa Industrial Complex and cities. With the deposition of fine-grained sediments, high metal concentrations were also observed in the central part of lake. Although various programs(improvement of wastewater collection and treatment system, sea-lake water exchange etc) to improve the environmental conditions around the Lake Shihwa after dike construction were carried out, it was not dear to reach a good environmental quality. Therefore, further environmental programs should be conducted continuously for environmental improvement.

하구담수호는 하천의 종점에서 해양과 만나는 곳에 방조제를 건설해 담수를 유도하여 형성되는 인공호수이다. 유역 말단에 위치하기 때문에 유역에서 유출되는 모든 수자원을 확보할 수 있는 장점이 있지만, 유역에서 발생하는 오염물질이 모두 유입되고 인공적인 담수의 특성 때문에 수질이 악화되기 쉬운 조건을 지니고 있다. 담수호의 수질관리는 유입되는 오염물질의 양이 많고 담수된 수자원량도 많으므로 부분적인 방법으로는 개선이 어려우며, 유역과 호소를 포함한 종합적인 대책이 필요하다. 담수호의 수질관리대책 수립은 크게 상류 유역에 대한 대책과 호소에 대한 대책으로 구분된다. 대표적인 대책으로는 상류 유역의 하수처리장, 축사, 농경지 관리를 통한 배출부하량 감소와 호소 내 수질개선을 위한 습지, 저류지 건설 및 준설을 통한 내부부하 감소 등이 있다. 이처럼 담수호의 수질관리를 위해서는 상류 유역에서 호소까지 종합적으로 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 유역모형과 호소모형의 연계를 통해 간월호 유역을 모의하였다. 유역모형은 HSPF(Hydrological Simulation Program-FORTRAN) 모형을 사용하였으며, 유역 내 3개의 하수처리장과 1개의 분뇨처리장을 고려하였으며, 4개 지점에 대하여 보정 및 검정을 시행하였다. 호소모형은 EFDC-WASP 연계모형을 이용하였으며, HSPF에서 모의 된 유입량과 호내 설치된 4개의 양수장, 배수갑문 운영일지를 고려하여 모의하였다. 호소 내 수질 측정지점에 대하여 T-N, T-P에 대하여 보정 및 검정을 수행하였다. 본 연구는 담수호 수질관리를 위한 분석시스템 구축으로 추후 대책에 따른 효과분석에 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

Reclamation is the act of creating new lands by constructing dikes in offshore tidal flats to utilize them for various purposes, including the establishment of farmland to secure food for an increasing population. Based on the fact that reclamation has resulted in drastic changes in the environmental, economic, social, and cultural aspects of land expansion and development, population movement, and the formation of cities since ancient times, I reviewed the value of reclamation sites and addressed the issue of how to preserve and utilize them. "Reclamation culture" refers collectively to the recognition and concept system, behavior styles, and cultural products created by changes in the environment, and the tangible, intangible, and natural heritage generated directly and indirectly by reclamation is defined as "reclamation cultural heritage". It shows that the historical background of reclamation accords with prevailing trends, and that the reclamation sites possess cultural heritage value due to their historical, academic, and scarce characteristics. Numerous reclamation cultural heritage sites at the Gwangwhal and Gyehwa dikes are on the verge of being destroyed, with their original function having ended after the construction of Saemangeum Sea Wall. I propose measures to preserve these under the principle that utilization is based on the basic premise of conservation. First of all, modern and contemporary reclamation sites must necessarily be designated and managed as registered cultural properties, local cultural heritage, future heritage, and agricultural heritage. In particular, as it has been confirmed that reclamation sites created after the Goryeo and Joseon dynasties and the 1950s have not been designated as cultural heritage sites. It is necessary to review the characteristics and values of such reclamation sites through a full survey of national reclamation data. Effective and sustainable utilization of reclamation cultural heritage, which has not been acknowledged in the past due to its close relationship with our lives, is necessary to search for hidden stories found within that heritage, to organize governance for the efficient use of reclamation resources, and to build a museum to collect and display the history and culture of the reclaimed areas. Finally, through links with countries with experience in reclamation, we will be able to cope jointly with international issues such as those pertaining to society, culture, and environment, and would be able to implement various projects to further the advancement of human beings.

A Saemangeum Development Project, which is a national project in South Korea, has started with the objective of developing the reclaimed area mainly agricultural land use since the mid'80s. To develop a model of the global eco-reclamation, constructions of the eco-friendly counter facilities such as sluice gates and inner dikes, as well as environmental preservation measures for an estuary reservoir, have been carried out. However, reasonable measures of the water quality management for the Saemangeum area are required. Thus, the purpose of this study is to rigorously analyze and quantitatively evaluate the environmental problems due to the water level management associated with inner dike constructions. To achieve these objectives, the affecting factors on determination of water level management are described and a series of calibrated transient-state numerical simulations was performed to demonstrate the salinity distribution difference in the estuary before and after the construction of inner dikes. The overall salinity reduced about 2~5 psu, and the seawater intrusion was weakened by a well-regulated waterway after construction of the inner dikes compared to before construction of them.

In order to diagnose the water environment and assess the water quality restoration, long term trend of water environment has been surveyed at 3-R stations from 1994 to 1999 in Lake Shihwa. Annual mean values of $COD_{Mn}$, Chlorophyll a, total nitrogen, total phosphorus and Secchi depth are ranged in 5.2-15.1 mg/L, 7.3-14R.1 jlg/L, 1.50-4.84 mgN/L, 0.055-0.281 mgP/L and 0.5 -1.4 m, respectively, during the study periods. Carson's trophic state indeies were varied from mesotrophy in 1994 and 1995, hyper-eutrophy in 1996 and 1997, to meso eutrophy in 199R and 1999. After dike construction, water quality were rapidly deteriorated by allochthonous and autochthonous loading of high nutrients and organic carbon. Eutrophication phenomena were characterized by massive phytoplankton blooms and high concentration of COD. However, after onset of restoration program, lake water quality was rapidly restored to the level of just after sea-dike construction. The diversion of waste water inflowing from the Panwol and the Sihwa industrial districts which was started from March, 1997 has contributed to improve water quality in the surface layer. And the tidal mixing (sea water inflowing) through the continuous gate operation was the most effective measure to the whole lake restoration.ration.
