The beach, a margin between the sea and the land, is an extremely dynamic zone, for it is here that the motion of the sea interacts with the sediment, rock of the land or the artificial barriers. In order to prohibit or retard erosions due to the extreme Typhoon or storm induced waves, man has constructed these of temporary or more permanent nature, but they caused problems of other erosions from the secondary effect of them and a bad influence on the seascape. In considering the energy available to accelerate sediment transport and erosion in the surf zone, where the waves are broken, and offshore beyond the breaker line, the wave height and the wave period should be taken account. Hence, we tried to present an applicability of the submerged artificial Bio-reefs analyzing waves by a numerical model such that they could reduce the wave power without the secondary effect and restoration of marine ecologies. A new technique of beach preservation is by artificial reefs with artificial and/or natural kelps or sea plants. By engineering the geometry of the nearshore reef, the wave attenuation ability of the feature can be optimized Higher, wider and longer reefs provide the greatest barrier against wave energy but material volumes, navigation hazards, placement methods and other factors require engineering considerations for the overall design of the nearshore reefs.

The aggravation of coastal erosion due to climate change has recently emerged as a global issue, and the international community is aware of the risk and is applying national consultations and various policies. In the case of coastal countries located in the Mediterranean Sea and the Caribbean Sea, coastal buffer zones and coastal management plans are established at a national level, and the United States is establishing coastal area management plans at the city level. In Korea, coastal erosion management areas are designated and managed to prevent coastal erosion and coastal disasters, but the number of designated areas and policies for coastal land areas are lacking. Therefore, in this study, we study policy cases applied to coastal land to prevent and reduce coastal erosion and coastal disasters through policy status and overseas cases, and seek ways to improve coastal buffer zone policies. As a result of the study, implications were drawn that expansion of the coastal buffer zone for coastal land areas and standards for establishing buffer zones based on scientific analysis are necessary.

This Study deals with the comparative analysis on the estimation of surface soil erosion volume between South and North Korea using RUSLE model in Imjin River basin located on DMZ of Central Korea. Comparatively North Korea areas have been more eroded three times as much as South Korea parts. Because of cropland development such as com Held in the hillslope, in North Korea, more surface soil erosion and transportation to the river bed has given rise to frequent flood hazards. It seems that the study can dedicate to mitigation of environmental problems such as soil erosion and flooding in unaccessible Imjin River basin located on DMZ.

In this study, an effort was made to find out more effective methods for vegetation establishment on denuded forest land along Cheon Bo Mountains, This area has serious sheet erosion as a major erosion process and parent material is granite gneiss which is known as one of the most erosive materials. Lespedeza bicolor, Arundinella hirta and Robinia pseudoacacia were used as ground cover species. Seeding methods were open broadcast seeding and broadcast seeding with straw mulch, dill seeding with 10cm and 20cm width, and spot seeding with 20cm and 30cm diameter. 1. On slopes less than 30 degrees, broadcast seeding method with straw mulch was the most effective way to establish vegetation cover. 2. On steep slopes more than 30 degrees, 10cm drill seeding method was more effective than the other methods. 3. Soil Texture has an influence on vegetation establishment governing soil moisture condition. Coverage and fresh weight were increased with the fine material qantity in soil. 4. In process of year, coverage was increased with fresh weight. On the other hand, survival decreased.

세류침식은 급경사 나지사면에서 증가하는 지표흐름에 의해 빈번하게 발생하고, 과도한 토사유출로 인해 홍수 및 토사재해 위험 증가와 수질오염 등의 문제를 야기한다. 본 연구는 개발지역의 마사토를 활용하여 1.2 m × 5.5 m 규모의 3개 중규모 플롯에서 세류발달 특성, 유출 및 토사유출량을 파악하고자 강우와 유입수 모의실험을 수행하였다. 경사 조건 15°와 20°에서 유입수 유무에 따른 4회의 반복실험이 진행되었으며 마사토의 평균입경은 0.89 mm이다. 강우강도 범위는 90~140 mm/hr이며, 유입수 유량은 합리식으로 계산하였으며 100~130 ml/sec이다. 하천 차수분석방법인 Horton방법을 사용하여 세류별 차수를 나누었다. 세류절개는 유입수가 없는 경우 실험 시작 약 1분 후에 발생하였고, 최대 2차수까지 세류가 발달하였으며, 유입수가 있는 경우 약 30초 후 발생하였고, 최대 3차수까지 세류가 발달하였다. 세류발달에 대한 수리학적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 염료 추적방법에 의한 동영상 이미지 분석결과 유속은 0.06~0.43 m/s의 범위를 보였다. 유입수와 강우가 함께 공급되는 경우 강우모의 공급수량에 비해 1.32~1.69배 증가했고, 이에 따라 지표유출수는 1.13~3.93배로 증가폭의 범위가 넓었다. 세류발달에 의한 토사유출량은 유입수 유무에 따라 6.7~32.3배로 증가하였다. 결론적으로 강우와 유입수가 상호작용하는 경우 강우에 의한 박리현상보다 유입수에 의한 측벽붕괴 활동이 활발하게 진행되었고 이는 세류 발달 과정에서 지배적으로 이루어졌기 때문으로 판단된다.

아시아 몬순기후의 영향에 의해 우리나라는 2020년 7월부터 9월까지 약 90일간의 장마로 인해 크고 작은 수재해가 발생하였다. 특히, 안성, 충주, 음성 그리고 곡성 등에서 인명피해가 발생하였으며, 그 외 13개소에서 많은 재산 피해가 발생하였다. 2020년 산사태/토석류 재해로 인한 전국적인 피해액은 약 3,900억으로 보고되고 있으며, 매년 집중호우에 의해 피해 양상이 변하고, 도시지역에서의 발생이 빈번하게 늘고 있다. 집중호우에 의한 산사태/토석류 전이 피해를 저감시키기 위해서는 발생 물질이 어디까지 이동할 수 있는지에 대한 위험범위확산에 대한 연구가 중요하며, 이런 연구를 기반으로 인명피해를 줄이기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 천수방정식, 유변학특성 식 그리고 연행침식 식을 조합하여 개발된 적응형 격자기반 2차원 토석류 모델을 이용하여 안성, 음성 그리고 단성지역에서 발생했었던 산사태/토석류 전이 피해 양상을 해석하였다. 산사태 발생 후 2~3일 이내에 지표 지질 및 지형 조사를 실시하였으며, UAV 및 항공사진을 이용하여 산사태 및 토석류의 형태를 맵핑하였다. 지질 및 지형조사 시 간이 Vein tester를 이용하여 야외에서 토양 물성관련 자료를 취득하였으며, 토석류의 이동 흔적(나무 등에의 토석류 타격 흔적)을 이용하여 조사지점에서의 최대 토석류 흐름 깊이를 추정하였다. 정확한 토석류의 유속에 대한 자료 부족으로 2011년 우면산에서 발생한 약 26m/s의 속도를 이용하여 토석류의 흐름 특성을 계산하였다. 이와 더불어 연행침식의 계산을 위해 발생지점 부터 토석류가 퇴적된 하류부까지 기반암의 노출 및 퇴적 정보를 통해 최대 침식 깊이를 추정하여 입력자료로 활용하였다. 토석류 맵핑자료와 비교 결과 정확도가 90%이상으로 나타났으며, 토석류 발생 후 안성 200초, 음성 180초 그리고 단성 180초 이내로 토석류가 하류까지 이동할 수 있는 것으로 계산되었다. 본 연구와 같이 산사태/토석류 발생 메커니즘 해석에 대한 지속적인 연구를 통해 산지 재해에 의한 인명 피해를 줄일 수 있는 토석류확산범위 해석에 대한 연구가 지속적으로 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to evaluate soil erosion risk with a standard unit watershed in the upper Upper Nakdong River Basin according to soil characteristics and landuse using the spatial soil erosion map. The study area is $3,605.6km^2$, which consists of 2 subbasins, 35 standard unit watersheds (Andong basin 18, Imha basin 17). As a evaluation of soil erosion potential using the spatial soil erosion map, total annual soil loss and soil loss per area estimated $2,013{\times}10^3Mg\;yr^{-1}$ (Andong basin 979, Imha basin 1,034) and $6.1Mg\;ha^{-1}yr^{-1}$ (Andong basin 6.0, Imha basin 5.2), respectively. 54.2% of soil loss was originated from Arable land (Andong basin 49.0%, Imha basin 59.0%), and the area of regions, graded as higher "Moderate" for annual soil loss, was $201.7km^2$ (Andong basin 84.9, Imha basin 116.8). Average soil loss per area of unit watersheds by classification according to soil dominant parent material types ranked "Sedimentary rock group" > "Mixed group" > "Metamorphic rock group" > "Igneous rock group". In conclusion, the results of this study inform that the classification of soil parent material type would be effective for soil erosion analysis and interpretation in the Upper Nakdong River Basin.

This study analyses the soil loss due to cropland increase in the Hoeryeung area of northeast Korea, using Landsat images of 1987 TM and 2001 ETM, together with DTED, soil and geological maps, and rainfall data of 20 years. Items of land cover and land use were categorized as cropland, settlement, forest, river zone, and sand deposit by supervised classification with spectral bands 1, 2 and 3. RUSLE model is used for estimation of soil loss, and AML language for calculation of soil loss volumes. Fourier transformation method is used for unification of the geographical grids between Landsat images and DTED. GTD was selected from 1:50,000 topographic map. Main sources of soil losses over 100 ton/year may be the river zone and settlement in the both times of 1987 and 2001, but the image of the 2001 shows that sources areas have developed up to the higher mountain slopes. In the cropland average, increases of hight and gradient are 24m and $0.8^{\circ}$ from 1987 to 2001. In the case of new developed cropland, average increases are 75m and $2.5^{\circ}$, and highest soil loss has occurred at the elevation between 300 and 500m. The soil loss 57 ton of 1987 year increased 85 ton of 2001 year. Soil loss is highest in $30{\sim}50^{\circ}$ slope zones in both years, but in 2001 year, soil loss increased under $30^{\circ}$ zones. The size of area over 200 ton/year, indicating higher risk of landslides, have increased from $28.6km^2$ of 1987 year to $48.8km^2$ of 2001 year.

This study accomplished to draw a soil erosion map and a grade map of soil loss hazard in Korea. RUSLE and Rainfall-runoff (R) factor, which was estimated by using the rainfall data observed in 59 meteorological stations from 1977 to 2006 (for 30 years). FARD was used to analyze the frequency, and the whole country R factor was estimated according to the frequency. In the analysis of estimating the whole country R factor, Nakdong river has the smallest vaule, but Han river has the biggest value. According to the result of analyzing soil loss, soil loss occurred in a grass land, a bare land and a field in size order, and also approximately 17.2 ton/ha soil loss happened on the whole area. The average soil loss amount by the unit area takes place in a bare land and a grass land a lot. The total amount of soil loss in 5-year-frequency rainfall yields 15,000 ton and, what is more, a lot of soil loss happens in a paddy field, a forest and a crop field. The grade map of soil loss hazard is drawn up by classifying soil loss hazard grade by 5. As a result of analyzing soil loss, the moderate area which is the soil loss hazard grade 2 takes up the largest part, 72.8% of the total soil loss hazard area, on the contrary, the severe soil loss hazard area takes up only $1,038km^2$ (1.1%) of the whole area. The severe soil loss hazard area by land cover shows $93.5km^2$ in a bare land, $168.1km^2$ in a grass land and $327.4km^2$ in a crop field respectively.

The distributed watershed model of rainfall-runoff-soil erosion-sedimen transport was constructed for the Naesung Stream Watershed with high potentiality and risk of sediments produced by soil erosion. The sensitivity analyses of roughness coefficient and hydraulic conductivity which affected the modeling results of runoff and sediment concentration were performed in this study. As a result, the change of the roughness coefficient for the forest area from 0.4 to 0.45 did not affect the change in runoff and stream discharge and the average value and range of sediment concentration were also insignificantly increased with few difference. As a result of the sensitivity analysis of the hydraulic conductivity, the total amount of runoff and maximum runoff were gradually increased as the hydraulic conductivity was reduced. In the case of sediment concentration modeling, the average and the range of sediment concentration for all stations were increased as the hydraulic conductivity was decreased. For the Hyangseok Station, in case of the hydraulic conductivity reduced by 50%, the simulation result of sediment concentration was most similar to the estimated value by the sediment rating curve.
