Generally levee or revetment becomes weak by erosion (scour) due to saturation of ground with infiltration, flowing water. So when levee or revetment is constructed, slope reinforcement must be installed to prevent failure. In this study experimental test was performed for verifying shear resistance, horizontal permeability and rooting ability of Geocomb designed to address the shortcomings of 3-dimension Geocell. Geocomb is one of geosynthetics and the advanced system of geogrid. According to the results of shear test, internal friction angle of reinforced ground with Geocomb was increasing compared with existing material and horizontal permeability of ground with Geocomb was bigger than geocell, porous geocell reinforcing ground. Lastly rooting ability of geocomb is most excellent. These results determined for the inner surface of the cell is net structure.

현제 도시유역의 산업화와 도시화로 인해 유역 내 불투수면적의 증가는 직접 유출량 증가, 지하수자원 고갈, 침투량 감소, 증발산량의 감소 등의 물 순환 체계의 변화를 가져왔다. 이러한 도시 유역 내 물 순환 체계 변화를 개선하기 위해 여러 국가에서 저영향개발(Low Impact Development, LID)의 개발 및 도입이 진행되고 있다. LID는 분산형 빗물관리 시설로써 유역 내 소규모의 LID 요소기술을 대상유역에 적용하여 강우유출수를 저류, 체류, 방지 및 처리하는 시설을 의미한다. LID는 궁극적 목표로 계획단계에서 개발이전의 수문기능을 유지하기 위해 보전, 영향최소화, 유출이동시간 유지, 추가유출량 감소, 오염발지에 초점을 맞추어 계획된다. 현제 LID의 성능 및 적용성에 대한 다양한 연구가 진해되어지고 있으나, LID 요소기술별 시공 비용, 유지관리 비용, 강우유출수 저감효율, 비점오염원 저감효율, 적용위치 등의 다양한 인자를 복합적으로 고려하여 LID요소기술별 적용성 평가를 수행한 연구는 미미한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 LID 요소기술 중 나무화분 여과장치, 옥상녹화, 빗무정원, 투수성포장, 침투트렌치, 빗물통, 식생수로 등의 총 7가지 LID 요소기술을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. LID 요소기술의 적용성평가를 수행하기 위해 시공비용, 유지관리비용, 강우유출수 저감효율, 비점오염원 저감효율, 적용위치 등의 촐 5가지 평가인자를 Entropy 방법을 이용하여 평가인자별 가중치를 산정하였다. 이후 다기준의사결정 방법 중 PROMETHEE 방법을 이용하여 LID 요소기술의 우선순위를 산정하였다. 현제 PROMETHEE 방법을 이용하여 LID 요소기술별 우선순위를 산정한 결과 옥상녹화가 첫번째 우선순위로 분석되었으며, 침투트렌치, 나무화분여과장치, 투수성포장, 식생수로, 빗물통, 빗물정원 순으로 분석되었다. 따라서 국내에 LID를 적용할 경우 옥상녹화, 침투트렌치, 나무화분 여과 장치 등의 LID 요소기술의 적용성 및 기대효과가 클 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 국내의 모든 지역을 대상으로 적용하기에는 문제가 있으며, 국내 LID 요소기술 적용 시 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 대상지역별 신뢰도 높은 LID 요소기술 적용성 평가를 위해서는 대상유역 내 시공된 LID 요소기술을 계측하여 비점오염원 및 우수유출수 저감효율, 시공 비용, 연간 유지관리 비용을 분석하여 평가를 수행되어 한다고 판단된다.

수제는 비용 대비 높은 효율을 가지는 수공 구조물로 하천과 해안에 많이 이용된다. 수제는 하천에서 식생물의 서식처, 유량 확보, 하천시설 보호 등의 목적으로 설치되며 해안에서는 해안선보호, 수심 확보 등의 다양한 목적으로 설치된다. 수제는 일반적으로 넓은 영역을 제어할 수 있도록 여러개의 군수제 형태로 설치한다. 수제설치 시 기존 하도나 수로의 흐름에 교란이 일어나는데 본류부에서는 하폭이 좁아져 수제선단부에 의한 영향으로 높은 유속이 발생되며 수제역내에서는 재순환흐름과 함께 다양한 형태의 유속분포가 형성된다. 이러한 수제에 의한 흐름은 수제 선단부의 영향으로 발생하는 흐름분리선(Separation Layer)을 기준으로 흐름중심선(Talweg Line)과 흐름분리영역(Separation area)을 만들어내며 수제역내의 재순환영역에서 완화된 유속은 제방을 침식으로부터 보호하며 식생물의 서식처를 제공한다. 기존의 연구는 대부분 단일수제에 대한 연구가 수행되었으며 연속된 군수제에 대한 연구는 다소 제한된 조건에서 수행되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 연속된 수제가 설치된 경우 수리실험을 통해 수제주변의 흐름 변화 특성을 분석하였다. 수리실험은 30.0m(L')×1.52m(B')×1.10m(H')의 직선 개수로에 050m(l)×0.10m(b)×0.25m(h)의 수제를 수로측면을 따라 연속적으로 배열하여 설치하였다. 실험은 수심, 유량, 수제설치간격을 변화시키면서 수행했으며 마그네틱유속계를 사용해서 수제의 영향을 받지 않으며 벽면의 영향이 가장 적은 수로상류의 중앙지점에서 접근유속을 측정했다. 표면유속을 취득하기 위해 일반디지털카메라로 FHD(1920×1080) 해상도를 가진 영상을 각각의 조건마다 10~20분 촬영했다. 촬영된 영상을 연속된 정지영상으로 변환하고 영상해석 프로그램을 이용하여 표면유속을 도출했다. 표면영상유속계를 활용하여 도출한 결과로 각각 조건에 따라 발생하는 최대유속과 최대역방향유속, 와도(vorticity), 흐름중심선과 단면유속분포의 변화와 발생 위치를 분석했다.

This paper describes vegetation based soil-media hydroseeding measures that have been previously applied as slope revegetation methods show problems such as insufficient binding force, drying, and insufficient organic matter. In particular, in the case of slope faces in regions where scattering is severe, a vicious circle exists in which remarkably low vegetation cover rates and increases in withering rates over time lead to further decreases in vegetation cover rates, which lead to further increases in erosion and scattering. Therefore, in the present study, environment friendly soil stabilizers were applied for resistance against erosion or scattering and engineering evaluations such as long-term immersion tests and flow resistance tests were conducted to determine appropriate mixing ratios. According to the results of long-term immersion tests utilizing environment friendly soil stabilizers and existing greening soil based materials, 100% collapse occurred at 30 hours and 40 days in the case of soil stabilizer mixing ratios of 0% and 2%, respectively. While the original form of the samples remained intact until the experiment was completed in the case of mixing ratios exceeding 4% indicating that 2% or higher soil stabilizer mixing ratios could affect the maintenance of forms even under extreme conditions. In addition, artificial rainfall tests were conducted on 40, 45, and 55 degree slope faces to evaluate the structural stability of vegetation based materials. Flow resistance tests were conducted on soil stabilizer mixing ratios of 0, 4, 8% to evaluate erosion resistance capability. Based on the results of the tests, environment friendly soil stabilizers applied for prevention of scattering or resistance against erosion by rainwater are considered to provide large effects to reduce losses and loss rates showed a tendency of decreasing rapidly when soil stabilizers were mixed.

Ecohydraulics is a newly born discipline in the early 1990s by the interdisciplinary approach combined with aquatic ecology in one discipline and geomorphology, hydrology, and fluid hydrodynamics in another. Major areas of ecohydraulics can be delineated as habitat hydraulics (including environmental flow), vegetation hydraulics, eco-corridor hydraulics, eutrophication hydraulics, and ecological restoration hydraulics. Reviews of relevant international journals and literature reveal that ecohydraulics has remained in the limited areas of fish response, hydraulic modeling, and physical habitat response. It has not reached a truly interdisciplinary stage. Literature reviews in Korea reveal that only 3% of the total number of the papers listed in the Journal of KWRA during the last 24 years is related to ecohydraulics. It is about 20% of the total listed in the Journal of Ecology and Resilient Infrastructure. Most of those related to ecohydraulics in Korea concern vegetation hydraulics, habitat hydraulics, and ecological restoration hydraulics. In contrast, dynamic flow modeling areas, including turbulence, fauna motion simulation, and eutrophication hydraulics, are not found. Areas of further research in ecohydraulics in Korea may be specified as follows: 1) environmental flows adapted to the traits of the rivers in Korea, 2) development of the dynamic floodplain vegetation models (DFVM) to assess the changes from the white river to green river, 3) development of the eutrophication hydraulic model to predict the freshwater algal blooms, and 4) development of the models to evaluate the physical, chemical, and biological impacts of the stream restoration, decommissioning and removal of old weirs or small dams.

This study was conducted to investigate the flora and vegetation structure at a 15-year-old artificial wetland for the water purification in Jincheon, Korea. The percentage of species number of obligate wetland plants and facultative wetland plants totaled 40%, whereas that of obligate upland plants and facultative upland plants was 57%. This result showed that the artificial wetland in the study experienced terrestrialization. The number of annual and biennial plants that are pioneer vegetation in a successional stage was lower than that of perennial herbs as a result of the long-term stabilization of vegetation. From the results of DCA (detrended correspondence analysis), water depth played an important role on the classification of vegetation structure in an old artificial wetland. Species diversity was higher in the terrestrialized plant communities such as Iris pseudacorus and Aster koraiensis than in any other wetland communities. Plant communities could be classified according to the wetland indices; obligate upland for A. koraiensis community, facultative wetlands for Carex dispalata var. dispalata and I. pseudacorus community, and obligate wetlands for Nymphoides peltata, Nymphaea tetragona, Phragmites communis, Potamogeton maackianus, and Typha angustifolia community. In conclusion, this result suggests that wetland vegetation should be maintained against terrestrialization through the proper management of sedimentation and hydrological regime in an artificial wetland.

The effect of potential future climate change on the inflow of agricultural reservoir and its impact to downstream streamflow by reservoir operation for paddy irrigation water was assessed using the SLURP (semi-distributed land use-based runoff process), a physically based hydrological model. The fundamental input data (elevation, meteorological data, land use, soil, vegetation) was collected to calibrate and validate of the SLURP model for a 366.5 $km^2$ watershed including two agricultural reservoirs (Geumgwang and Gosam) located in Anseongcheon watershed. Then, the CCCma CGCM2 data by SRES (special report on emissions scenarios) A2 and B2 scenarios of the IPCC (intergovernmental panel on climate change) was used to assess the future potential climate change. The future weather data for the year, m ms, m5ms and 2amms was downscaled by Change Factor method through bias-correction using 3m years (1977-2006) weather data of 3 meteorological stations of the watershed. In addition, the future land uses were predicted by modified CA (cellular automata)-Markov technique using the time series land use data fromFactosat images. Also the future vegetation cover information was predicted and considered by the linear regression between monthly NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) from NOAA AVHRR images and monthly mean temperature using eight years (1998-2006) data.

Traffic noise is a significant national problem in many communities. Construction of noise barriers has been the most often used mechanism to mitigate vehicle noise for residents next to high density roadways. The most common materials for constructing noise barriers are metal. The character of the wall can be significantly modified by the type of surface treatment used on the wall body. Noise barrier walls can be softened through the use of plants. Greening Noise Barrier helps blend the roadway into the surrounding landscape and provides an interesting and aesthetic view of the road.

2010년 9월 21일 오전부터 서울과 인천 등 수도권 지역에 최대 200mm가 넘는 집중호우가 내렸다. 이로 인해 도림천에서는 하천 복원 공사가 한창이었으나, 공사가 진행된 지점에서 자연형하천 공법의 훼손이 심각하게 발생하였다. 본 연구에서는 집중호우로 인한 자연형하천 공법의 훼손 현황을 현지조사를 통해 살펴보고, 이의 원인을 검토, 분석하여 복구대책 수립에 지침이 되도록 하였다. 자연형하천 공법의 훼손은 주로 하천의 수리적인 안정성을 고려하지 않고 설치함으로써 인위적으로 흐름에 지장을 초래하기 때문에 발생하였다. 흐름의 유속을 고려하지 않는 수생식물 식재, 하도 내에 설치된 진입계단, 전망데크, 불투수성의 자전거길 및 저수호안공의 훼손은 추후 흐름의 유속과 와류 등을 고려한 수리적인 안정성 확보가 중요함을 시사하였다. 한편, 저수호안에 식재한 갯버들+자연석 호안공은 이번 호우에도 어느 정도 대응 가능하였음을 감안할 때, 흐름의 유속이 빠르다고 하여 자연석 호안공을 시멘트로 메워 식생을 도입하지 않았던 공법에 대한 재검토가 필요함을 알 수 있었다.
