In case of groundwater recharge estimation using water table fluctuation method, specific yield affects the accuracy and confidence level of recharge rate. Nevertheless, there have been few studies on the method for the accurate estimation of specific yield in Korea. Specific yield estimated from the relationship between rainfall and groundwater levels is reasonable compared to the other methods. However, lots of factors such as artificial pumping, evapotranspiration by the plants, and a sudden increase in water levels by a heavy rainfall can affect the pattern of groundwater levels' fluctuation and make an over-estimated or under-estimated specific yield. This study obtained a reasonable specific yield by using a daily or 12 hourly average of rainfall and groundwater levels measured in a dry season.

This study evaluated the hydraulic factors contributing to the decreasing groundwater levels across Jeju island. Time-series data for groundwater level, precipitation, and groundwater usage and information on land use were acquired, and the correlations among them were analyzed to evaluate the causes of the decreasing groundwater. The effects of precipitation and groundwater usage on the fluctuations of groundwater level were quantified using response surface analysis and sensitivity analysis, and methods for groundwater quantity management by region were proposed. The results showed that the rate of groundwater decrease in the western region was larger than that in the eastern region. For the eastern region, the influence of precipitation was large and the rate of decrease in the groundwater level was relatively small. The geological formation of this part of the island and continuous seawater intrusion suggest that although the absolute amount of groundwater extracted for use was large, the decrease in the groundwater level was not seen to be great due to an increase in pressure by seawater intrusion. Overall, precipitation and groundwater usage had the greatest effect on the amount of groundwater in the western region, and thus their data would be most useful for informing groundwater management, whereas other factors (e.g., sea level and the location of the freshwater-seawater transition zone) must be considered when understanding Jeju's eastern region. As the characteristics of groundwater level fluctuations in the eastern and western regions are distinct, an optimal management plan for each region should be proposed to ensure the efficient management of groundwater quantity.

Purpose: This study conducted a slope stability study considering changes in the ground water level due to rain phenomena and the duration of rainfall, that is for the purpose of analyzing the stability of the slope surface of the cut section, seepage numerical analysis is performed by height of slope and rainfall accident, and the characteristics of rainfall was applied reasonably in order to determine the slope change during rain by analyzing rainfall and rainfall pattern due to climate change. Results: As a result of numerical analysis of stability for slope composed of the granite weathered soils according to the characteristics of rainfall(Uniform Rainfall, US Army Corps., Huff's method - 1/4, 4/4), Conclusion: The higher the slope, the smaller the safety factor of the slope, the smaller the elevation of the ground water level as the rainwater seepage does not reach the underground water level. In addition, the ground water level was assessed to be rose significantly in condition of case 3 Huff's method - 1/4, rain pattern with the largest initial rainfall duration, and the safety factor was analyzed to be small.

기후변화로 인한 국내 수문기상 환경의 변화는 기존의 강수 패턴의 변화를 야기하고, 이는 수문학적 측면에서 유역 내 지하수 함양량의 변화를 야기할 수 있다. 상시 취수가 가능한 대규모 하천 인근 지역 외의 지역은 가용 수량의 확보를 위하여 생·농·공 용수 확보를 위하여 지하수를 적극적으로 이용하고 있다. 유역의 수자원 관리를 위하여 하천, 저수지, 댐 등으로 대표되는 지표수자원의 관리와 함께 지하수자원 관리의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 지하수자원의 관리를 위해서는 기존 지하수 이용시설의 지하수 이용량에 대한 정확한 정보를 수집하는 것이 중요하지만 지하수 함양량을 정량적으로 평가하는 것 또한 매우 중요하다. 지하수 함양량을 산정하기 위한 방법으로는 물수지 분석, MIKE, SWAT 등 모형을 이용한 분석 등 다양한 평가 방법이 있으나 유역의 지하수 함양에 영향을 줄수 있는 수문환경에 대한 정확한 정보가 있어야 하기 때문에 권역 내 표준유역 전반에 대한 지하수 함양량을 산정하기 어려운 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 지하수위 관측자료와 강수량 관측자료를 이용한 지하수위 변동법을 적용하여 표준유역 별 지하수 함양량을 산정하였다. 최근 5년간의 자료를 이용하여 표준유역 별 지하수 함양량 산정 결과를 제안함으로써 표준유역 단위 수자원 관리에 기여하고자 하였다. 본 연구 결과는 표준 유역 별 가뭄 대응 방안을 도출하는데 기초 자료로써 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다

The burden of flood control on the dam under frequently flood due to climate change and especially heavy flood in 2020 year are come to the forward and increased. The objective of the study is therefore to establish the method to estimate capacity and target water level for flood control in actual dam management. Frequency matching method was applied to establish a pair of cumulative distribution function (CDF) based on daily dam inflow and discharge records. The relationship between dam storage and discharge volume represented as a percentage of inflow volume was derived and its characteristics was analyzed. As the result, the Soyanggang (45%) and Chungju Dam (39%) contributing to flood control with temporarily storing flood runoff. The method and diagram to estimate flood control capacity and target water level for flood control in the dam were established. The result of the study could be used as a supplementary data for flood control of the dam according to the rainfall prediction on the Korea Meteorological Administration.

The oceanic tides have an effect on groundwater levels in coastal fractured rock aquifers. The observed groundwater table fluctuations caused by the effective stress through an aquifer are shown as sine curves similar with tidal fluctuation. To estimate a hydrogeologic parameter, tidal method is utilized with groundwater level fluctuations of two monitoring wells. Cross correlation function is used to calculate time lags between observed groundwater levels and tide, and the deeper well shows longer time lag. The storage coefficients calculated by using tidal efficiency and time lag show large differences. The storage coefficients obtained by using time lags are close to the result of slug test, and that of the deeper well shows closer value by slug test. The tidal efficiency is unsatisfied to apply in the tidal method because of an effect of phreatic aquifer and the vertical flow of groundwater through fractured confining bed. This tidal method can be an economical and effective way to define the parameter by considering the location of observation well and hydrogeologic characteristics of a coastal aquifer.

본 연구에서는 미국기상청(NWS)에서 개발된 수리학적 홍수추적모형인 FLDWAV 모형을 이용하여 낙동강유역의 수리학적 특성을 규명하고 그에 따른 결과를 분석하였다. 이를 위해서 하구둑의 배수위 영향을 직접적으로 받게 되는 낙동강 하류부인 적포수위표에서 낙동강 하구둑까지의 구간을 홍수추적모형을 수행하였다. 또한 모형수행의 정확성을 지배하는 하구둑에서의 방류량 특성을 분석하기 위해서 다양한 경우에 대해서 적용하였다. 수행을 위한 상류유입유량경계조건과 횡방향 유입유량은 수문학적 저류함수법에 의해서 유입량을 산정하였으며, 하류수위경계조건은 하구둑에서 실측하게 되는 내수위값을 적용하였다. 모의 수행을 위해서 본 연구에서는 최적의 일관된 매개변수를 확립하였으며, 대표홍수사상에 대해서 적용한 결과 수위관측지점의 관측수위와 거의 일치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 낙동강 하구둑에서의 수리/수문학적 특성변화는 낙동강의 상류까지 영향을 미치게 된다. 현재까지 하구둑에서의 방류량 산정에 관한 연구는 일부 수행이 되었으나, 운영자가 실질적으로 도입하기에는 아직까지 많은 검증이 필요하다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 하류경계조건을 명지지점까지 확장함으로서 부정류모형의 수행을 통한 하구둑에서의 수위 또는 방류량을 산정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 상류의 유량규모와 하류의 하구둑 조위에 따른 본류의 배수영향범위 등을 분석하는것은 합리적인 댐운영과 하천관리를 위한 중요한 인자가 될것으로 판단된다.

수위-유량 관계 곡선식에 포함되어져 있는 매개변수를 추정하기 위해 많이 사용되는 로그선형 회귀분석은 잔차의 비등분산성(heterocesdascity)을 고려하지 못하므로 본 연구에서는 의사우도추정법(Pseudo-likelihood Estimation, P-LE)에 의해 분산함수를 추정하고 이와 함께 회귀계수를 추정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 이 과정에서 제시된 회귀잔차를 최소화하기 위하여 SA(simulated annealing)이라는 전역 최적화 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 또한 수위-유량 관계 곡선식은 단면 등의 영향으로 인해 구간에 따라 각각 다르게 구축되어져야 하므로 이를 보다 객관적으로 판단하고 분리 위치를 정확히 추정하기 위하여 Heaviside 함수를 의사우도함수에 포함시켜 결과를 추정하도록 하였으며, 2개의 구간을 가지는 유량자료를 이용하여 제시된 방법의 합리성을 통계적으로 실험하였다. 이와 같이 통계적 실험을 통해 제시된 방법들이 기존 방법과 비교하여 가질 수 있는 장점을 파악하였으며, 제시된 방법들을 금강유역 5개 지점에서 대해 수행하여 효율성을 검증하였다.

Artificial neural network (ANN) is a powerful model to predict time series data and have been frequently adopted to predict groundwater level (GWL). Many researchers have also tried to improve the performance of ANN prediction for GWL in many ways. Dummies are usually used in ANN as input to reflect the seasonal effect on predicted results, which is necessary for improving the predicting performance of ANN. In this study, the effect of Dummy on the prediction performance was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively using several graphical methods, correlation coefficient and performance index. It was observed that results predicted using dummies for ANN model indicated worse performance than those without dummies.
