AMS radiocarbon dates indicated that Eurimji reservoir, located at Jecheon City, Chungbuk Province, has been formed during the late Holocene Epoch. The sedimentary sequence at bottom reveals histories in hydrology, climate conditions and past vegetation dynamics. Ages controlled sedimentological and palynological analyses on ER 3-1 Core contribute to reconstruct paleoclimate and past hydrological conditions. These analyses suggest that lower interval (307.5m~309.5m elevations) of the ER 3-1 Core was deposited in stable from 1,920 yrBP to 1,420 yrBP, but upper layer sediment above these elevations was composed of reworked sediments during the pre and post 2,000 yrBP. Pollen assemblage indicates that watershed vegetation of the Eurimji reservoir, during the period of 1,920 yrBP~1,420 yrBP, was closely comparable to modern vegetation dominated Pinus and Quercus mixed vegetation. Also, riparian including Alnus, Fraxinus and Salix were inhabited along the banks of stream, and aquatics such as Typha, Nymphaea and Persicaria flourished at shore of the reservoir. According to cultural chronicle, it infers that the Eurimji reservoir was formed from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age or the beginning of ancient society. An integrated data suggested that Quercus-Pinus-Abies mixed forest flourished under cool and dry climate conditions during 3,200 yrBP~200 yrBP.

The aim of this study is to develop eco-friendly, fundamental technology for vegetative restoration of barren lands using green rehabilitation material, for the stabilization of abandoned mine debris slopes and depository slopes composed of rock fragments. It is expected that such methods would help to improve the negative view of artificial slopes that remain following mining activity, while also contributing to slope stabilization and prevention of the loss of rock fragments and the dispersion of tailings. We tested the tensile strength and tear strength of various materials, including commonly used natural coir material, natural fibers, and synthetic textile materials with enhanced durability. In conclusion, there is the possibility that natural coir can be used as an eco-friendly material in vegetation restoration, while its durability in natural conditions can be improved by controlling the degree of knot convolution and by antibacterial treatment against biodegradation.

Naeseong Stream is a sand-bed river that flows through the northern area of Gyeongbuk province. It is characterized by dynamic sandy bedforms developed in response to the seasonal hydrological fluctuation and by its unique riverine landscape called "white river." However, changes including construction of Yeongju Dam from 2010 and the extensive vegetation establishment around 2015 occurred along the Naeseong Stream. This paper aims to analyze climate, hydrology, and water quality as factors and to examine the possibility of channel changes accordingly. The second least precipitation during the last 60 years happened in 2015, which led to the lowest peak discharge in 50 years. The sediment characteristics of Naeseong Stream were not significantly different along the upstream and downstream reaches, but it was confirmed that annual minimum water level of the stream decreased continuously regardless of the dam construction. This suggests that intermittent drought and change in water quality are likely to provide favorable conditions for riparian vegetation establishment and the resulting physical changes have affected riverbed degradation. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct diversified monitoring in connection with river vegetation change in order to analyze the causes of river changes.

In recent years, large-scale construction projects such as road pavement construction and new city construction have been carried out nationwide with by the expansion of social overhead facilities and base on the economic development planning, resulting in a rapid increase in artificial slope damage. The existing vegetation-based re-installation method of the slope surface greening method reveals various problems such as lack of bonding force, drying, and lack of organic matter. In this study, research was carried out using vegetation-based material and environmentally friendly soil additives, were are used in combination with natural humus, Bark compost, coco peat, and vermiculite. Uniaxial compressive strength was measured according to the mixing ratio of soil additives and the strength was analyzed. Experiments were carried out on the characteristics of the soil material to gauge the slope protection properties by using the soil compaction test method wherein the soil and the soil additive materials are mixed in relation to the soil height, the number of compaction, the compaction method (layer) and the curing condition. As a result of the experiment, excellent strength performance was demonstrated in soil additives using gypsum cement, and it satisfied vegetation growth standards by using performance enhancer and pH regulator. It was confirmed that the strength increases with the mixing of soil and soil additive, and the stability of slope protection can be improved.

This paper presents the field investigation of deposition and erosion relief of a riverfront using vegetation. The results obtained were as follows: Phragmites japonica showed 0.2 m of deposition and 0.3 m-0.4 m of erosion relief of river front by the critical velocity of 1.0 m/s-1.2 m/s. P. communis showed 0.1 m-0.4 m of deposition and 0.2 m-0.3 m of erosion relief by the critical velocity of 0.6 m/s-0.7 m/s. Salix gracilistyla showed 0.1 m-0.2 m of deposition and 0.4 m-0.5 m of erosion relief by the critical velocity of 1.2 m/s-1.4 m/s. Miscanthus sacchariflorus showed 0.1 m-0.4 m of deposition and 0.1 m-0.2 m of erosion relief by the critical velocity of 0.6 m/s-0.7 m/s. S. gracilistyla had the greatest role, while M. sacchariflorus had the lowest role for erosion relief. These results showed that aquatic plants had an effective role in sustaining a stable channel.

수문 순환과 물 수지에 관한 연구는 강수량, 지표유출량, 지하수, 토양수분 및 증발산량 등에 대한 관측이 이루어질 때 실제로 규명될 수 있다. 하지만, 수문 순환과 물수지 평가에 중요한 부분을 차지하는 증발산량의 경우 관측값보다 단순한 가정이나 경험식에 의한 추정값을 사용하고 있다. 따라서, 수문 순환과 물수지의 정량적인 분석을 위해서는 수문 순환 과정에서 상당부분을 차지하는 증발산량의 측정(실측)과 자료의 축척이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구는 국토교통부의 기초수문자료 구축사업의 일환으로 수행되었으며, 수문자료의 다양화 목적을 가지고 에디공분산 기술을 사용하여 증발산량을 직접 관측하고 있다. 관측지점은 한반도의 약 70%를 차지하는 산림지 중 대표적 식생 기능 형태인 혼효림으로 구성된 지점(설마천 관측소, 2007년 8월부터)과, 인위적인 관개가 이루어지는 농경지(청미천 관측소, 2008년 8월부터)에서의 증발산량 측정을 수행하였다. 관측된 자료를 활용하여 관측소별로 연도별 증발산량 특성을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 설마천 관측소(주변식생 : 혼효림)에서 산정된 연증발산량은 2008년 471.7mm, 2009년 408.4mm, 2010년 489.4mm, 2011년 387.0mm, 2012년 323.3mm, 2013년 293.3mm, 2014년 360.9mm, 2015년 419.6mm, 2016년 566.9mm이고, 발생한 강수량 대비 증발산 비율은 18.9%~56.2%범위로 산정되었다. 청미천 관측소(주변식생 : 농경지)에서 산정된 연증발산량은 2009년 571.8mm, 2010년 650.6mm, 2011년 523.9mm, 2012년 509.8mm, 2013년 467.9mm 2014년 533.9mm, 2015년 600.5mm, 2016년 588.0mm이고, 발생한 강수량 대비 증발산량의 비율은 25.6%~71.4%범위로 산정되었다. 강수량 대비 증발산량 비율의 최대값은 설마천 관측소는 2014년, 청미천 관측소는 2015년에 발생하였다. 평균 증발산량 비율은 산림지인 설마천 관측소보다 논경지인 청미천 관측소가 평균 13.3%정도 높은 특성을 보였다.

In this study, information on vegetation was collected using a point cloud through a 3-D Terrestrial Lidar Scanner, and the physical shape was analyzed by reconfiguring the object based on the refined data. Each filtering step of the raw data was optimized, and the reference volume and the estimated results using the Alpha Shape and Voxel techniques were compared. As a result of the analysis, when the volume was calculated by applying the Alpha Shape, it was overestimated than reference volume regardless of data filtering. In addition, the Voxel method to be the most similar to the reference volume after the 8th filtering, and as the filtering proceeded, it was underestimated. Therefore, when re-implementing an object using a point cloud, internal voids due to the complex shape of the target object must be considered, and it is necessary to pay attention to the filtering process for optimal data analyzed in the filtering process.

우리나라는 전체 면적의 63.0%가 산림으로 구성되어 있고, 일정면적 내 나무들의 총 부피를 의미하는 입목축적의 경우 1973년에 11.3 m³/ha에서 2015년에 146.0 m³/ha로 43년 동안 1292.0% 증가하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 유역 면적의 70.2%가 산림에 해당하는 용담댐 상류 유역(930.2 km²)을 대상으로 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)을 이용하여 장기간 산림 성장에 따른 수문 변화를 평가하였다. 산림 성장 변화 분석을 위해 산림청의 전국산림자원조사에서 제공하는 침엽수, 활엽수, 혼효림 식생 자료를 1980년부터 2019년까지 40년의 산림 성장 자료를 10년 단위(1980s; 1980~1989, 1990s; 1990~1999, 2000s; 2000~2009, 2010s; 2010~2019)로 구축하였으며, Terra MODIS MOD15A2 엽면적지수(LAI) 자료를 2010년부터 2019년까지 구축하였다. LAI는 연대별 식생 높이의 상관성을 고려하여 1980년부터 2019년까지 회귀하여 총 40년 자료를 구축하고 10년 단위로 활용하였다. SWAT의 검보정은 2010년부터 2019년까지 실측된 유량, 증발산량 및 토양수분을 이용하였으며 검보정 결과 유량의 평균 NSE는 0.57, R²는 0.69, RMSE는 1.66 mm/day, PBIAS는 4.95%이며, 증발산량 및 토양수분의 R²는 0.60, 0.52로 나타났다. 산림 성장에 따른 수문 변화를 관찰하기 위해 기상자료를 2010s로 고정하고 연대별 산림 정보를 입력하여 산림 성장이 물순환에 미치는 영향을 시공간적으로 평가할 예정이며, 침엽수, 활엽수, 혼효림 생장을 개별적으로 분석하여 식생별 영향을 비교 및 평가할 예정이다.
