The impervious cover ratio has been used as an important measure for tracing water environment characteristics in watershed. Impervious cover is divided into total impervious cover and effective impervious cover, and its size varies depending on the land use characteristics of a watershed. Total impervious cover can be easily measured using existing land use maps or land cover map, while it takes a considerable amount of time and labor to measure the effective impervious cover, as water flow should be identified at each site. This study is intended to calculate the total impervious cover and effective cover of a sample site, compare their characteristics, and find a method to apply effective and total impervious cover ratios toward watershed management. The analysis of the sample site showed that the effective impervious cover rate(39.7%) was less than the total impervious cover rate(43%). This suggests that it would be acceptable, in terms of time and cost, if total impervious cover is applied as the representative impervious cover ratio of a watershed considering that it was used as basic data to analyze the effect that impervious cover has on the water environment.

In this paper, impervious area ratios for 11 land cover types of Seoul city were estimated and corresponding CNs were calculated. And linear regression equations were derived to predict impervious area ratios based on five major urban land cover types including the residential, industrial, transportation, commercial, and commercial-residential mixed areas. From the comparative analysis of impervious area ratios for the US SCS CNs and the CNs derived in this study for Seoul city, it is revealed that residential areas show the biggest difference followed by industrial and commercial ones. And in turn, these increased impervious area ratios resulted in Increased CNs for Seoul city including increases by 13 for residential, 12 for industrial and 5 for commercial areas. Therefore, it is suggested that applying the US SCS CNs to Korean urbanized areas may underestimate the flood runoff potential.

This study estimates landscape indices of the Gyeongan-stream watershed from 1975 to 2000 by classifying the land cover into impervious cover and pervious cover depending on its state using a landscape analysis program. For the indicator of biodiversity this study uses Total Core Area(TCA) among landscape indices. The estimated TCA is then used along with an Impervious Cover Model(ICM) to compare the number of fish species that appear in the Gyeongan-stream watershed. In the relations between TCA and the impervious cover ratio, it has been found that as the impervious cover ratio increases, TCA decreases accordingly. It shows that as the ratio of impervious cover in the landscape increases due to urbanization and development, the critical area that individual species need for isolation from outside has decreased. Also, the monitoring of the number of fish species that appear in the Gyeongan-stream watershed shows that in the areas with low impervious cover ratio there are more fish species appearing that inhabit in clean, uncontaminated water. It has been identified that the Gyeongan-stream watershed falls into the category of Impacted Stream and that its state is worsening, and since the watershed in this area responds to the impervious cover ratio very sensitively, its fish diversity it is required to improve the state of the basin through its proper and careful management.

불투수면 비율은 유역의 건전성을 나타내는 중요한 지표로서 도시화에 따른 도시유출의 특성을 추적하는 모델에서 널리 이용되어 왔고, 기존의 많은 연구를 통해서 수환경과의 밀접한 관계가 검증되었다. 불투수율은 비교적 쉽고 빠르게 측정할 수 있으며 유역계획에서 여러 가지 대안 적용이 가능하다는 점에서 유용한 지표로 이용되고 있다. 오늘날 토지이용변화로 인해 발생하는 유역생태계 변화 분석 등은 시, 공간적 제약으로 인해 명확하게 이루어지지 못하고 있어 인간활동에 의한 토지이용의 파편화(Fragmentation)가 어느 정도 발생하고 있는가를 파악하고, 이를 토대로 파편화에 따른 영향을 최소화하거나 사전에 예방하는 것이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 경관분석 프로그램인 FRAGSTATS의 적용을 위한 경관요소로서 토지피복을 선정하여, 불투수면을 나타내는 시가화지역과 투수면을 나타내는 산림지역을 대상으로 1) 갑천 유역의 토지피복 변화에 따른 경관구조, 변화 양상을 분석하고, 2) 갑천 유역 내 6개 단위유역별로도 경관 생태학적 지표를 선정하여 이를 평가하였다.

Most researches have created the impervious surface map by using low-spatial-resolution satellite imagery and are inefficient to generate the object-based impervious map with a broad area. In this study, segment-based impervious surface mapping algorithm is proposed using the RapidEye satellite imagery in order to map impervious area. At first, additional bands are generated by using TOA reflectance conversion RapidEye data. And then, shadow and water class are extracted using training data of converted reflectance image. Object-based impervious surface can be generated by spectral mixture analysis based on land cover map of Ministry of Environment with medium scale, in the case of other classes except shadow and water classes. The experiment shows that result by our method represents high classification accuracy compared to reference data, quantitatively.

최근 기후변화로 인해 집중호우 및 게릴라성 폭우의 발생빈도가 증가하고 있다. 또한, 도시화 및 산업화로 인해 불투수지역이 증가하여 첨두강우의 도달시간은 짧아지고, 강우강도는 증가하는 현상을 보이고 있다. 이로 인해 도시유역에서는 우수관의 통수능 부족으로 인한 홍수가 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 EPA-SWMM User's manual에서 제공하는 예제 관망도를 이용하여 SWMM 모형 매개변수들 간의 상관관계 분석을 수행하였다. 사전 조사 및 분석을 통해 유역폭, 관조도계수, 불투수유역 조도계수, 투수유역 조도계수, 불투수면적 비율 등 총 5개의 매개변수를 분석 대상으로 선정하였다. 매개변수들 간의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 유역폭-관조도계수, 유역폭불투수유역조도계수, 불투수면저 비율-투수유역 조도계수가 양의 기울기를 가지는 1차 선형함수 형태를 보였다. 즉, 예로 유역폭이 증가하면 관조도계수 또한 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 반대로 유역폭-불투수면적비율, 불투수유역 조도계수-관조도계수의 경우 음의 기울기를 가지는 상관관계를 보였으며 특히, 유역폭-불투수면적비율의 경우 2차 회귀곡선을 가지는 감소경향을 보였다. 본 연구의 결과를 활용하여 향후 우수관 설계를 수행한다면 내수침수 저감에 실무적인 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study aimed to assess runoff reduction performance and determine installation priorities for Permeable Pavement (PP) and Rain Barrel (RB) within the Mokgam Stream basin. Optimal design parameters were determined to maximize the effectiveness of PP and RB in reducing runoff. Furthermore, the optimal parameters were incorporated to compare the runoff reduction performance of PP and RB. Analysis of the runoff curve at the basin outlet indicated that PP demonstrated superior performance in reducing runoff during the rising limb of the curve. At the same time, RB excelled within the falling limb. Comparisons of total runoff and peak runoff reduction by sub-catchment revealed that in larger sub-catchment areas, PP outperformed RB in runoff reduction. In contrast, RB exhibited higher performance in areas with a higher impervious ratio. Based on the evaluation of runoff reduction performance for PP and RB, installation priorities were determined within the Mokgam Stream basin. The results showed that PP and RB installations were prioritized for sub-catchments with larger areas and a higher impervious ratio. Furthermore, the correlation between the ranking of runoff reduction performance and sub-catchment characteristics showed a high correlation with both the impervious area ratio and sub-catchment geometrical properties in sub-watersheds exhibiting the top 25% runoff reduction performance. These results emphasize that when determining the priority for installing LID facilities in developed urban areas, it is necessary to consider not only the impervious area ratio but also the geometrical properties of the sub-catchment.

Influences of seasonal warming and cooling rates on the annual temperature patterns were analyzed based on the meteorological data from 13 weather stations in Busan Metropolitan Area(BMA), Korea during 1997~2014. BMA daily temperature time-series was generalized by Fourier analysis, which mathematically summarizes complex, regularly sampled periodic records, such as air temperature, into a limited number of major wave components. Local monthly warming and cooling rates of BMA were strongly governed by the ocean effect within the city. March($1.121^{\circ}C/month$) and November(-$1.564^{\circ}C/month$) were the two months, when the most rapid warming and cooling rates were observed, respectively during the study period. Geographically, spring warming rates of inland increased more rapidly compared to coastal areas due to weaker ocean effect. As a result, the annual maximum temperature was reached earlier in a location, where the annual temperature range was larger, and therefore its July mean temperature and continentality were higher. Interannual analyses based on average temperature data of all weather stations also showed that the annual maximum temperature tended to occur earlier as the city's July mean temperature increased. Percent area of impervious surfaces, an indicator of urbanization, was another contributor to temperature change rates of the city. Annual mean temperature was positively correlated with percent area of impervious surfaces, and the variations of monthly warming and cooling rates also increased with percent area of impervious surfaces.

Impervious covers(IC) are artificial structures, such as driveways, sidewalks, building's roofs, and parking lots, through which water cannot infiltrate into the soil. IC is an environmental concern because the pavement materials seal the soil surface, decreasing rainwater infiltration and natural groundwater recharge, and consequently disturb the hydrological cycle in a watershed. Increase of IC in a watershed can cause more frequent flooding, higher flood peaks, groundwater drawdown, dry river, and decline of water quality and ecosystem health. There has been an increased public interest in the institutional adoption of LID(Low Impact Development) and GI(Green Infrastructure) techniques to address the adverse impact of IC. The objectives of this study were to construct the modeling site for a samll urban watershed with the Storm Water Management Model(SWMM), and to evaluate the effect of various LID techniques on the control of rainfall runoff processes and non-point pollutant load. The model was calibrated and validated using the field data collected during two flood events on July 17 and August 11, 2009, respectively, and applied to a complex area, where is consist of apartments, school, roads, park, etc. The LID techniques applied to the impervious area were decentralized rainwater management measures such as pervious cover and green roof. The results showed that the increase of perviousness land cover through LID applications decreases the runoff volume and pollutants loading during flood events. In particular, applications of pervious pavement for parking lots and sidewalk, green roof, and their combinations reduced the total volume of runoff by 15~61 % and non-point pollutant loads by TSS 22~72 %, BOD 23~71 %, COD 22~71 %, TN 15~79 %, TP 9~64 % in the study site.
