An integrated water resources management is highly required to use efficient water and preserve water quality due to the limits of water resources development and water pollution. K-WEAP was developed, which supports the water resources planning and evaluation within a fully integrated interactive system. In this study, we present three applications of K-WEAP. First, we examined the usefulness of K-WEAP as a water resources planning tool through its application to the National Water Resources Plan. Second, the conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater in the Geum river basin with K-WEAP was evaluated, and its results show how to support to set up a sustainable groundwater management plan. Finally, we confirmed the function of the integrated water quantity and quality management in K-WEAP, which conducted by comparing the simulated results of water quality in both QUAL2E and K-WEAP.

In recent years, the bagging cultivation of summer squash (Cucurbita moschata) is applied for surface protection during harvest and extension of storage period. In this study, the effect of plastic bagging cultivation of summer squash on improvement of quality and extension of storage period was investigated. The yield and the length of fruit didn't have no difference between bagging and control treatment but the bagging treatment significantly made more regular size and light weight of fruits, and increased the number of fruits because of the limitation of their growth. The bagging treatment decreased weight loss and fruit softening during the their storage. Therefore it showed effective means for quality improvement and storage extension of summer squash.

In this paper, the performance of the optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA) technology on a plastic optical fiber (POF) access network, which had received much attention due to its low weight, large core diameter, flexibility, easy installation, and especially its high bandwidth, is analyzed. Recently, POF was a very attractive candidate for transmission media in an access network based on OCDMA technology. But the conventional OCDMA system only allows finite units to transmit and access simultaneously according to the number of channels which are restricted by BER, and so, in this paper, to resolve this problem a novel multi-priority reservation protocol is also proposed. By using this reservation scheme and a distributed arbitration algorithm, channel collision and destination conflict could be avoided. And this protocol can efficiently support the transmission of multimedia messages that require the different time-delay. The network throughput and average delay using various system parameters have been investigated by numerical analysis and simulation experiments. These results shows that the multi-priority reservation protocol in this POF access network based on OCDMA technology is valid and efficient.

It was described the measured friction loss depending on pressure used and changes in water flow rates for a fire hose used at a fire scene on this study. As a result of actual measurement based on the result obtained by analyzing the use situation of a fire hose such as the kind, quantity, pressure used, etc. of a fire hose, the friction loss in a fire hose under the condition of using by a fire officer at a fire scene was measured as up to 56.8 %. This is much different from the equivalent length of a fire hose used to calculate the pump head in an indoor and outdoor fire-fighting facility. There is no related restrictive regulation on friction loss, there are even no data on friction loss measured by fire hose makers, and spreading a fire hose without considering friction loss at a fire scene can result in an increased length of hose used and a high-pressure water discharge from a fire engine, so this study aims to establish a standard for an equivalent length to friction loss in a fire hose and to propose a spreading method considering friction loss in a fire hose at a fire scene.

Based on the results of groundwater flow system modeling for a hypothetical deep geological repository site, quantitative and spatial distributions of groundwater flow rates at the positions of deposition holes, groundwater travel length and time from the positions to the surface environment were analyzed and used to suggest a method for determining locations of deposition holes. The hydraulic head values at the depth of the deposition holes and a particle tracking method were used to calculate the ground-water flow rates and groundwater travel length and time, respectively. From the results, an approach to designing a layout of deposition holes was suggested by selecting relatively favorable positions for maintaining performance of the disposal facility and screening some positions of deposition holes that did not comply with specific constraints for the groundwater flow rates, travel length and time. In addition, a method for determining a geometrical direction for extension of the disposal facility was discussed. Designing the layout of deposition holes with the information of groundwater flow at the disposal depth can contribute to secure performance and safety of the disposal facility.

This study focuses on understanding proportionality, in particular, what constitutes relational understanding of a:b=c:d, which is called proportional expression. The meanings of a:b=c:d are analyzed and some suggestions are offered for improving the teaching and learning of it. The equation a:b=c:d has three different meanings. First, it represents two different structures in one proportional situation. Second, it represents a common structure in two different proportional situations. Finally, it represents a number or a quantity underlying in different proportional situations. It is important to choose and use a unit flexibly to understand the first and the second meanings of a:b=c:d, Double strip diagram and double number line are useful to visualize the meanings of a:b=c:d. In addition, what a number or a quantity in the third meaning of a:b=c:d refers to in proportional situations should be emphasized in teaching and learning of a:b=c:d.

A Raman LIDAR system has been designed and constructed for quantitative measurement of water vapor mixing ratio. The comparison with commercial microwave radiometer and global navigation satellite system(GNSS) was performed for the precipitable water vapor(PWV) profile and total PWV. The result shows that the total GNSS-PWV and LIDAR-PWV have good correlation with each other. But, there is small difference between the two methods because of maximum measurement height in LIDAR and the GNSS method. There are some significant differences between Raman and MWR when the water vapor concentration changes quickly near the boundary layer or at the edge of a cloud. Finally we have decided that MWR cannot detect spatial changes but LIDAR can measure spatial changes.

The objective of this study is to investigate the water pollution problems brought about by the construction of eco-friendly waterfront space through the physical model experiment including water quality consideration. Due to the lack of water supply into the artificial ponds and canals, the water quality problems such as eutrophication, odor and so on can be occurred. There have been many numerical models on such phenomena but limited studies using physical test due to the difficulty in the verification of physical interpretation of the study area. In this study, a prototype model that is not affected by the dimensionless parameters was carried out, where unpolluted water is mixed into the contaminated water to reduce the concentration of nutrients. In addition, this study also attempt to find the optimal configuration of the flow induction machines using the scale model which will evaluate and verify the effectiveness of the enforcement methods to maintain the water quality objectives.

새만금 유역의 농업비점오염원은 총수질오염원의 68%로 많은 비중을 차지하고 있다. 이는 새만금 유역의 농업비점오염원을 제어하지 못하면 새만금 담수호의 수질에 악영향을 미친다는 의미이다. 또한, 국내 논 용수 이용량은 국가수자원 총 이용량의 40.5%으로 많은 비중을 차지하고 있다. 이에 따라서 논 배출수의 수량 및 수질관리가 농촌 비점오염 물질 관리에 매우 중요하다. 현재 많은 연구자들이 농촌 비점오염 물질을 저감하기 위하여 다양한 최적관리기법에 대한 실험을 실시하였다. 그러나 대부분 시험포를 조성하고 제한된 실험조건에서 효과를 검증한 연구 결과로 실제 농민에게 최적관리기법을 보급하여 그 효과를 검증한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 새만금유역 내 논에서 실제 영농활동을 실시하고 있는 농민들에게 최적관리기법 중 하나인 물꼬장치를 보급하고 물꼬 높이를 조절하게 함으로써 농민 스스로 비점오염물질을 저감 할 수 있도록 장려하였다. 연구 대상지점은 전라북도 부안군 백산면 용계리 일대 논이며, 연구 기간은 5월부터 9월까지로 영농 활동기를 대상으로 모니터링을 실시하였다. 물꼬 높이 조절은 중간낙수기 이전은 7 cm, 중간낙수 이후와 비영농기에는 물꼬 높이를 12 cm로 높여서 유지하도록 하였다. 농민 스스로 물꼬 높이를 조절하여 비점오염물질을 저감할 수 있도록 물꼬 보급 이후 정기적으로 교육을 실시하였다. 이후 영농 활동기별 유출량을 비교한 결과 관행 대비 평시 14%, 써레질 및 이앙기 3%, 강우시 15%, 중간낙수 기간에는 11%, 완전 물떼기 기간에는 10%의 저감효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 각 필지별 농도 및 오염부하 비교 결과 배수물꼬 적용에 따라 통계적으로 유의한 결과를 나타내지는 않았다. 배수물꼬 장치를 설치할 경우 유출량을 저감에는 큰 효과가 있었으나 농도를 줄이는데 에는 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 본 연구 결과는 2016년 1년간의 짧은 연구기간동안의 자료이므로 추가적인 장기모니터링 연구를 통해 더 많은 자료구축이 필요하다.

홍수와 달리 가뭄은 장기적인 강수량 부족에 의해 발생하는 자연해로, 불확실성이 큰 장기(계절) 기상예보를 토대로 대비하기는 어려운 것이 현실이다. 가뭄에 대비하기 위해 가뭄의 진행상황을 관찰할 수 있는 다양한 가뭄지수가 활용되고 있다. 가뭄은 기상학적 가뭄, 농업적 가뭄, 수문학적 가뭄, 사회경제학적 가뭄으로 분류되고, 이를 정량적으로 평가하고 가뭄의 진행상황을 파악하기 위해 강수량, 유출량, 저수지의 저수량, 지하수, 토양수분 등 다양한 인자들이 사용된다. 일반적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 가뭄지수는 평균에 대한 부족한 정도를 지수화해서 나타낸다. 하지만 우리가 가용할 수 없는 많은 양의 강수량 및 유출량(또는 저수지 유입량)이 가뭄지수를 산정하는 기간 동안 지속적으로 영향을 주게 된다. 이는 짧은 기간 동안 매우 많은 강수 후 가뭄이 지속 되었을 경우, 이를 정상의 상태로 나타낼 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 이와 같은 가뭄지수를 통해 가뭄에 대처하기 위한 기준을 수립하기에는 한계가 있음을 나타낸다. 우리나라의 경우 취수량의 대부분을 댐과 하천수에 의존한다. 하천수량이 댐의 방류량에 의한 의존도가 높은 현실에서 우리가 체감하는 가뭄은 댐의 용수확보와 공급에 가장 큰 영향을 받는다고 할 수 있다. 댐은 용량의 제한이 있으며, 계획된 용수공급량과 저수량 부족 시 용수공급을 조절하는 기준이 있다. 따라서 과거 관측된 유입량과 용수공급 계획량, 용수공급 조정 기준을 통해 저수지 운영을 모의하게 되면, 용수공급을 감축하는 시점을 확인 할 수 있다. 이를 활용하여 적절한 유입량의 상한계를 설정할 수 있으며, 이는 가뭄에 대비하는 댐 운영에 활용할 수 있는 가뭄지수로 활용할 수 있다. 이는 댐의 용수 공급과 직접적으로 연관되어 있으므로, 체감할 수 있는 가뭄전달 도구로 활용이 가능하다. 이와 같이 제시된 유입량 가뭄지수를 기존의 대표적인 가뭄지수와 비교하여 활용성을 평가하였다. 우리가 사용할 수 있는 물이 부족한 현상을 '물부족'으로 표현하고, 강수량의 부족을 '가뭄'으로 표현해야 한다는 주장이 있다. 하지만 강수량 부족에 기인한 물부족을 가뭄으로 표현하고 이를 정량적으로 나타내는 것이 가뭄에 대처해야하는 용수 관리자에게 유용할 뿐만 아니라, 일반 국민들에게 체감할 수 있는 가뭄정보를 제공하는데 도움이 될 것이다.
