The basic data of groundwater quality such as water temperature, pH and electric conductivity were collected for 6 months from July to December 2000 in Yongnup. The results are as follows; the values of groundwater quality at the unsaturated points were beyond the distribution range when compared with those at fully saturated points. Temperature of groundwater in Yongnup increased with the rising of watertable. The values of pH were usually measured between 5.0 and 6.0, but sometimes those of lower than 4.0 were indicated. The value measured at unvegetated ground was higher than that at covered area. Also, the electric conductivity increased with the rising of watertable. The values of water quality between groundwater and surface water were quite different from each other and varied with seasonal change. The measured values of pH and electric conductivity had a proportional relationship.

In the Ice Valley, it freeze in summer season. However, there is no ice during winter. In order to clarify the phenomenon of unusual temperature, numerical experiments were conducted using the coupled equations of fluid flow and heat transfer. The results demonstrated that temperature inversion in the Ice Valley is primarily due to delay of the groundwater temperature. Also, the results of the simulation suggest that major factors affecting the delay are the topographical configuration, geological factors and groundwater flow system, combined with groundwater recharge and discharge systems.

This study was objected to show the complexity of groundwater flow system in a site-scale area as a design parameter of the groundwater monitoring network for early detection of pollutant leakage from a potential source of groundwater contamination (e.g., storage tank). Around the tanks, three monitoring wells were installed at about 22~25 m deep and groundwater level and temperature had been monitored for 22 months by 2-minute interval, and then compared with precipitation and temperature data from nearby weather station. Annual variation of groundwater level and its response to precipitation event, variation of groundwater temperature and delayed response to that of atmospheric temperature indicate the complexity of groundwater flow and flow paths even in the relatively small area. Thus, groundwater monitoring network for early detection of contaminant leakage should be designed with full consideration of the complexity of groundwater flow system, identified from the detailed hydrogeological investigation of the site.

지진에 의한 변동과 전조 현상을 규명하기 위한 다양한 연구들이 진행되었으며, 기존 연구들에서는 지진 발생의 주요 원인은 주로 단층 운동에 의한 지각 반응을 중심으로 분석하고 그 결과들을 제시하였다. 지하층에서 지진이 발생하나 발생의 원인은 지각뿐만 아니라 수환경과 연계된 인자들까지 존재하여 매우 다양하다. 즉, 지각, 토양, 토질 등 지하의 변동과 연관성이 매우 높고 수 많은 수환경자료들(지하수위, 라돈, ph, 기타 수질 요소)을 통해서 지각운동에 따른 변화와 지진발생 가능성에 대한 상관관계를 규명할 수 있는 가능성이 매우 높다. 기존 지진이 나타나는 주요 원인은 주로 활성 단층 운동에 의한 지각 반응의 영향으로 지진 발생 이전에 지각의 팽창과 변형에 의해 지하수, 지하수 수질요소(라돈, 전기전도도, 수온 등)의 지화학적 변동이 일어날 수 있는 가능성이 존재하며, 이러한 수환경 빅데이터는 지진 발생 가능성 증대와 재현기간 및 규모 증대 등 상관성이 매우 큰 것으로 분석된다. 본 연구에서는 국내발생하는 지진에 대한 경향성 분석을 통하여 내륙에서 발생하는 지진과 바다에서 발생하는 지진의 경향성 및 연관성을 분석하고자 한다. 또한 지진 발생 지역에 대하여 수환경 빅데이터(지하수위, 라돈, 수온, 전기전도도, 강수량 등)와 지진발생과의 상관관계를 분석하여 주요 원인을 제시하고자 한다.

With groundwater data of seawater intrusion monitoring network in coastal areas of Korea's main land, we analyzed types of seawater intrusion through the coastal aquifer. The data including groundwater level, temperature and electrical conductivity obtained from 45 monitoring wells at 25 watershed regions were evaluated. Based on statistical analysis, correlation analysis and variation type analysis, groundwater levels were mainly affected by rainfall and artificial pumping. About 78% of the monitoring wells showed average temperature higher than $15^{\circ}C$ and about 58% of them showed minimum variations less than $0.2^{\circ}C$. Electrical conductivities showed a large magnitude of variation and irregular characteristics compared with groundwater levels and temperatures. Average electrical conductivities lower than $2,000\;{\mu}S/cm$ were observed at 28 monitoring wells while those of higher than $10,000\;{\mu}S/cm$ were done at 9 monitoring wells. From the cross-correlation analysis, groundwater levels were mostly affected by precipitation while temperature and electrical conductivity showed very low correlation. Meanwhile tidal variations strongly affected the groundwater levels comparing to precipitation. We classified the long-term monitoring data according to variation types such as constant process, linear trend, cyclic variation, impulse, step function and ramp. Impulse type was dominant for variations of groundwater level, which was largely affected by rainfall or artificial pumping, the constant process was dominant for temperature. Compared with groundwater level and temperature, electrical conductivities showed various types like linear trend, step function and ramp. According to the discrepancy of variation characteristics for monitoring data at each well in the same region, periodical analysis of monitoring data is essentially required.

We examined temporal variations in and relationships among groundwater level, groundwater temperature, and electric conductivity, and estimated groundwater recharge at Jeju Island. The time lag and regulation time of groundwater level data revealed that monitoring well in Ansung (JM-AS) has the highest auto-correlation. The cross-correlations for electric conductivity-water level, precipitation-water level, and air temperature-water temperature revealed that monitoring well in Seogwi-2 (JR-SG2) (electric conductivity-water level), monitoring well in Hamo (JD-HM) (precipitation-water level), and monitoring well in Wonjongjang-2 (JT-WJJ2) (air temperature-water temperature) had the highest cross-correlations. The average groundwater recharge ratio was 39.61%, and the average groundwater recharge amount was 1,153,490,407 $m^3/yr$, which is consistent with the results of previous studies.

The variation of groundwater by wave, tide and precipitation conditions is closely related to the vegetation environment at the natural vegetation and sandy based beach, and it has a significant impact on the vegetation development and ground stabilization. In this study, the water temperature, electrical conductivity, and pressure were monitored at five observational stations normal to the Jinu-do(Island) shoreline of Nakdong river estuary from March 2012 to September 2014 (approximately 799 days) with the aim of measuring the variation in groundwater-table characteristics. The purpose of the study was to identify factors (tide, wave etc.) affecting groundwater-table variation using time series and correlation analysis, and to record spatial variations in the groundwater level and electrical conductivity as a result of storm events. The observational station in the intertidal zone was strongly affected by wave period and tide level. During the storm period, the groundwater-table and electrical conductivity were stabilized at the edge of sand dunes, vegetation, and areas of transition between freshwater and seawater.

Saltwater intrusion effects of coastal aquifers in Korea peninsula were analyzed through trend analysis with groundwater level, seawater level, seawater temperature, and electrical resistivity(EC) data sets. Groundwater level and EC data sets from 27 coastal regions were collected and analyzed. Groundwater level was stable for all the regions however EC data showed stable or changing trends (9 increasing, 10 stable, and 8 decreasing regions). Seawater temperature was collected and analyzed for 14 regions and they are increasing for most regions (12 increasing and 2 stable regions). Seawater level was also collected and analyzed for 24 regions and is rising for most regions (18 rising, 3 stable, and 3 falling regions). Especially, west cost regions have stronger increasing tendencies of seawater level, seawater temperature, and EC than eastern and southern coastal regions. Therefore the saltwater intrusion problem can be serious for west cost regions in Korea peninsula and it is necessary to establish a plan to minimize the damages from saltwater intrusion.
