Naeseong Stream is a natural sand-bed river that flows through mountainous and cultivated area in northern part of Gyeongbuk province. It had maintained its inherent landscape characterized by white sandbars before 2010s. However, since then changes occurred, which include construction of Yeongju Dam and the extensive vegetation development around 2015. In this study, long-term monitoring was carried out on Naeseong Stream to analyze these changes objectively. This paper aims to provide a dataset of the investigation on channel morphology and vegetation for the period 2012-2018. Methods of investigation include drone/terrestrial photography, LiDAR aerial survey and on-site fieldwork. The main findings are as follows. Vegetation development in the channel of Naeseong Stream began around 1987. Before 2013 it occurred along the downstream reach and since then in the entire reach. Some of the sites where riverbed is covered with vegetation during 2014~2015 were rejuvenated to bare bars due to the floods afterwards, but woody vegetation was established in many sites. Bed changes occurred due to deposition of sediment on the vegetated surfaces. Though Naeseong Stream has maintained its substantial sand-bed characteristics, there has been a slight tendency in bed material coarsening. Riverbed degradation at the thalweg was observed in the surveyed cross sections. Considering all the results together with the hydrological characteristics mentioned in the precedent paper (I), it is thought that the change in vegetation and landscape along Naeseong Stream was mainly due to decrease of flow. The effect of Yeongju Dam on the change of the riverbed degradation was briefly discussed as well.

The Naeseong Stream is a meandering sand-bed stream flowing through mountains and has so long maintained its geomorphological uniqueness characterized by extensive braided bare bars. Recently, its long-lasting landscape has been changed due to encroachment of vegetation. In this study being a part of long-term monitoring research morphological changes of the 56.8 km long study reach of the Naeseong Stream, which occurred during the period of 2012 - 2016 were analyzed. Airborne LiDAR and terrestrial cross-section surveys were carried out. Hydrological and on-site investigation data were also collected. Among the main four sites, two bend reaches showed point bars enlarged, while along the other two straight reaches mid-channel bars were either newly formed or increased in area and height. At the highest deposition point of each bar, vertical changes which were caused by one or two times of sediment deposition amounted to 0.6 - 1.4 m. On the contrary channel bed degradation was not obvious. Overall morphological changes in the study reach were attributed to deposition of sediment which occurred during the flood in July 2016 on the bar surfaces vegetated during the precedent dry seasons. These kind of geomorphological processes are thought to be the same as those related to the existing mid-channel islands along the mid- and downstream reach of the Naeseong Stream.

This study aims to analyze cold air characteristics in the watershed areas and to suggest strategies for utilizing them in urban ventilation corridor plans. For this purpose, the Jungnangcheon watershed and Uijeongbu-si in the northern part of Gyeonggi province, and Anyangcheon watershed as well as Yangjaecheon Tancheon watershed and Gwacheon-si in the southern part were selected as study areas. We used KALM (Kaltluftabflussmodell), a cold air simulation model developed in Germany and identified both the cold air flow and the height of cold air layer generated during 6 hours at night. Uijeongbu City is located on the main stream of the Jungnangcheon watershed, and the local cold air from the southern outskirts is an important part of Uijeongbu-si's overall ventilation corridor planning. In addition, the cold air generated in the vicinity of Mt. Sapae flows into the central business district near the city hall and plays a major role in regulating the thermal environment of the city. But, the cold air flows in the eastern part of Uijeongbu-si was not smoothly. The cold air flow generated in the east of Gwanak Mountain and in the west of Cheonggye Mountain was the most active in the northern part of Gwacheon-si. This flow is also a major ventilation corridor in Anyangcheon watershed as well as Yangjaecheon Tancheon watershed. But, the southern part where the cold air flow is not smooth is planed to be developed as 'Gwacheon Knowledge Information Town Public Housing District', so rapid development is expected in the future. Hence, it is suggested that an additional ventilation corridor plan should be established based on the detailed local wind flow analysis.

As recording densities increase in digital magnetic recording channels, the performances of digital detection techniques such as PRML and DFE degrade significantly due to nonlinear distortion in recording channels. The primary impediments for hgih-density recording are generally classified as nonlinear transition shift, which can be reduced substantially by the precompensation technique, and partial erasure which usually requires sophisticated nonlinear equalization techniques. In order to acheieve the highest density recording, accurate estimation of the parameters associated with these two noninear distortions is crucial. In this paper, a new estimation technique to distinguish these two different nonlinear effect using a proposed adaptive algorithm in time domain is presented. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive approach to identify uniquely the nonlinear parameter with bias is demonstrated by computer simulation.

근래에 들어 환경문제의 사회적 부각과 함께 생태파괴적인 하천 정비 방식에 대한 대안으로 자연형 하천 환경 복원기법에 대한 시험 적용이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 하천 복원에 앞서 하천 환경의 상태를 파악하고 진단할 수 있는 방법에 대한 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 기존에 개발된 하천 질 평가 방법은 수질에 편향된 경향이 있으나 수질의 개선만으로는 생물 다양성의 발생 기반으로서 물리적 구조가 훼손된 상태에서는 생태적 복원의 효과를 달성하기 어렵다. 따라서 하천의 물리적 조건에 의한 구체적이고 비교적 객관적인 평가가 필요하며, 본 연구에서는 상기 평가를 바탕으로 작성된 하천 자연도 평가 지침에 의거하여 곡릉천 하류 일부 구간과 곡릉천의 지류인 벽제천을 대상으로 자연도를 조사하였다. 평가 결과 곡릉천 봉일천교 상류 2km구간의 저수로는 사행을 보였으며, 강변 사주 및 하중도는 없었으나 갈대 등과 같은 저수로변 식생이 있고 흙으로 조성된 인공제방으로 되어 있어 도심지의 정형화된 하천들에 비해 비교적 자연에 가까운 모습을 하고 있었다. 한편 하천 인근에 있는 아파트 등 주거지와 논, 밭 등의 경작지로 인한 오염원 유입 및 자전거 도로와 산책로 등 사람의 접근이 용이한 제외지의 이용으로 동식 물서식처로서의 기능이 저하될 것으로 우려된다. 곡릉천의 지류인 벽제천은 저수로가 사행을 유지하고 하중도와 사주가 형성되어 있으며 여울을 확인할 수 있었다. 하천 인근에 경작지와 제방도로가 있으나 인적이 드물고 차량 통행량이 적어 생태환경 훼손에 대한 우려는 적은 것으로 판단되 었다.

The present study aims to investigate the long-term channel morphological changes derived from channelization, embankment and levee construction works in unregulated fluvial channel of the Jiseock River. Analyses of aerial photographs taken past (Year 1966) and recent (Year 2002) showed the temporally remarkable changes in channel planform such as channel shape, bar migration, vegetation encroachment in bar. During the period, the natural single threading changed into braided types together with decreasing sinuosity by 9.2%, increasing vegetation occupied bar ranged 97% of total bars area. Because such channel morphological changes are closely similar to those in dam downstream channels, we assume that both/either flow regime alteration and/or sediment transport discontinuity may be critical for the fixed channel and spread of vegetated bars even in unregulated river without dam reservoir upstream. We found more reduced frequency and magnitude of flooding water level comparing with past, but no significant alteration of inter annual water level variation. Bed material has been coarsened by 4~5 times and the riverbed has been degraded in overall channel but aggraded locally in conjunction reach of tributaries. The results indicates that reduced sediment dynamics in fluvial channel which derived by bed material coarsening, river bed degradation and unbalanced sediment transport capacity between tributary and mainstem can be a causal factor to trigger channel morphological changes even in unregulated rivers.

The effect of lowering water activity of various humectants has been reported in the previous papers. In this study, that effect of humectants used in combination with each other was discussed. Additionally, the Aw measurements were also compared to the predicted values of Aw derived from the equation of Raoult's law and the linear slope method by Sloan and Labuza. Each mixed humectant was thought to be salted-out by the other, and thus Aw values were observed to be somewhat lower as the result in all model preparations. The effect of lowering water activity by NaCl was the highest, and the efficiency of reduction of Aw was decreased in the order of NaCl, sodium lactate, glycerin, propylene glycol and sorbitol when each of them was combinated with other humectants. Aw values calculated by the equation of Raoult's law were not agreed so well to the measured Aw, so it was likely not to be the useful method for predicting Aw values in mixed humectants to far as they have showed higher ability for lowering Aw in the previous papers. The equations of prediction were derived from Aw values to be measured actually in the model Kamaboko.

A survey on four tributaries along with Mankyeong River was carried out to get the information far the water quality improvement and control. Typical paddy farming were major agricultural practices in Kosancheon and Soyangcheon. Iksancheon was livestock raising watershed. Chucheon was urban watershed. Water quality in six sites of main stream and four sites of tributaries in Mankyeong River were investigated from May to August in 2001. The concentration of nutrient in main stream of Mankyeong River were in the range of 3.78$\sim$12.68 mg/L for total nitrogen, 0.043$\sim$0.864 mg/L for total phosphorus, 2.59$\sim$13.29 mg/L for BOD and 12.9$\sim$119.5 mg/L for COD, respectively. Water quality of Mankyeong River mostly exceeded the standard water quality criteria of Korea. Major causes of water pollution were evaluated as sewage of swine and urban area. Among the four tributaries, water quality in agricultural practices, Kosancheon and Soyangcheon was relatively less polluted. While, the highest level of water pollution measured in Iksancheon was due to livestock. The water quality of Iksancheon and Chucheon was generally more polluted in the dry period than in rainy period.

도계장에서는 항상 비품이 발생한다. 골절, 피부병변, 착색이상 등 여러 가지 상태의 계육이 비품으로 분류되어 큰피해를 입고 있다. 가까운 예로 미국의 경우 이에 대한 피해액이 연간 5천만 달러로 추산되고 있다. 국내에서는 이러한 문제 때문에 육계 담당 부서에서는 항상 비품에 대해서 스트레스를 받고 있다. 하지만 이러한 문제들이 정말 스트레스가 되는 원인은 사육 중에 발견되기보다는 도계 후에 발견되며, 이에 따라상품가치가 현저히 감소하고 추가적인 작업이 요구되기 때문일 것이다. 대부분의 회사들이 이 문제를 접하게 되면, 주로 곰팡이 독소 흡착제를 사용하는 것이 유일한 대책인 것으로 생각한다. 이런 경우엔 약품에 대한 효과는 잘 모르겠지만, 필자의 느낌으로는 일정한 시간이 흘러 자연스럽게(?) 해결되는 과정을 걷는 듯 하며, 관련 부서에서는 이 약제의 효과에 대해 판단하기보다는 일단 직면한 문제가 해결되었 다고 결과론적으로 만족하는 듯 하다. 필자는 이 지면을 통해 그 동안의 관점과는 다른 측면에서 이런 문제의 원인과 그 대책에 대해 간략히 논하고자한다. 도계장에서는 항상 여러 가지 비품들이 발생한다. 이 모든 것들을 논하기에는 너무 범위가 넓기 때문에 여기서는 독자들의 이해를 위해 비품들 중에서 등 부위의 상처와 복부의 상처(배꼽 닭)에 대해 국한하도록 하겠다. 아마도 이 부분외의 다른 비품들은 대부분 그 원인을 쉽게 추정할 수 있기 때문이다. 먼저, 독자들에게 질문하고 싶은 것이 있다. 이러한 비품들의 직접적인 원인은 무엇인가? 앞서 얘기한 것과 같이 각 회사들의 대책으로 이용되는 곰팡이 독소 흡착제를 보면, 곰팡이 독소가 가장 직접적인 원인으로 생각할 수도 있다. 하지만 결론적으로 직접적인 원인은 외상이다. 즉, 외부의 물리적인 작용에 의한 상처인 것이다. 이런 측면에서 볼 때 가장 직접적인 원인은 외상이며, 이 외에 깃털발육 이상(혹은 저하), 바닥상태 불량 등과 같은 사양관리 이상과 면역 억제성 질환 및 지혈능력의 저하 등이 직접적인 원인으로 인한 문제들을 더욱 악화시키는 간접적인 원인으로 작용한다.
