This study analyzed the reduction efficiency to a debris barrier planed with the Office of Forestry and local provinces among diverse measurements for the diminution of high-density turbid water and soil erosion of Soyang reservoir. As the analysis of soil erosion of Soyang river basin applying rainfall data (2005) and GIS database, soil erosion is estimated as 4,819,494 ton. Also, in the analysis of unit soil erosion, Chugok-, Jaun-, and Ohang stream shows high value comparing with other watersheds. Debris barrier watersheds are extracted as the center of 94 debris barrier points using GIS spatial analysis. As the analysis of soil erosion and sediment delivery ratio (SDR) of debris barrier watershed, the reduction efficiency of soil erosion of debris barrier of 2005 is analyzed as 6.8%, that is 330,203 ton. Also, the reduction efficiency of soil erosion of debris barrier of 2005 increases as 10.5%, that is 506,783 ton, when the locations of debris barrier are changed into the high soil erosion area over 5,000 ton.

As concerns have been raised about health effects of children's products containing hazardous chemicals on children, the Korea Ministry of Environment announced 135 environmental hazardous substances in children's products (EHSCP) which were subject to risk assessment. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the current status of EHSCP for management due to their various exposure routes and types. In this study, we investigated the exposure assessment of EHSCP as well as relevant policies implemented in domestic and foreign countries. Domestic and foreign cases of detection of EHSCP were reviewed in the literature and websites of related agencies. Due to the lack of reference values for child-specific toxicity of EHSCP, those for adults and regulatory status of EHSCP were also investigated and reviewed with literature. The related agencies of foreign countries provided 13 child-specific reference doses (RfDs), 76 RfDs, and 42 reference concentrations as toxicity reference values of the EHSCP. Among substances investigated in the studies to assess exposure of hazardous substances in children's products by the Korea Ministry of Environment, 23 substances were included in 135 EHSCP. The same studies identified 9 substances which were excluded from the 135 EHSCP. For regulatory status for hazardous substances in children's products, 44 substances (32.6 %) and 84 substances (62.2 %) of 135 EHSCP were under regulation in Korea and foreign countries, respectively. In the present study, we found that a list of 135 EHSCP should be revised to ensure children's safety.

Objectives: The OECD QSAR Application Toolbox was developed by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to facilitate the practical use of QSAR approaches in regulatory contexts as well as to reduce the need for additional animal testing. In this study, human health and the ecotoxicity of chemicals were predicted by applying the OECD QSAR Application Toolbox and the results were compared with experimental data in order to evaluate the applicability of this program. Methods: Read-across, trend analysis, and QSAR of OECD QSAR Application Toolbox were used for the prediction of toxicity. Results: The toxicity prediction was conducted on 6,354 chemicals for which toxicity data have been produced on the six endpoints of skin sensitization, skin irritation, eye irritation, mutagenicity, and acute toxicities of fish and Daphnia. From the total of 6,354, we obtained prediction results for 1,621 chemicals (25.5%). Conclusions: The predicted properties of mutagenicity, skin sensitization, and acute aquatic toxicities were reasonably good when compared with experimental data, but other endpoints were not due to the limitation of applicable chemical groups.

In the image captured by the camera in a moving vehicle, there exist various motions due to the change of background, motion of objects in the image that make difficult to extract a pure vibrational motion by the camera. In this paper, we suggest an image stabilization with the elimination of various motion components based on the classification of motions in the image by their characteristics. After the elimination of various local motions, images are compensated and stabilized with the global motion caused by the camera. Also, we suggest an accurate and fast image stabilization by excluding regions of little information based on block differences and edge densities.

High turbidity submersion due to torrential downpour is one of the factors that influences the plant growth. This study is focused on analyzing the plant's growth rate for Salix species such as gracilisyla, koreensis, glandulosa when these trees are waterlogged. The length of shoots for this control group in the natural state is 33.4% (gracilisyla), 24.3% (koreensis), 23.9% (glandulosa), however, they stopped growing in submersion. Compared to the leaf number of Salix species of this control group in the natural state, 144.5% (gracilisyla), 77.3% (koreensis), 40.3% (glandulosa) in the natural state 30 days, in 30 days submersion, the number of leaves is zero except koreensis. In the results of this experiment, Salix species stopped growing quickly when submersed. This study concludes that it is necessary to plant eco-friendly plants around the slope of the reservoir and dam where flooding takes place frequently.

하도에서의 하천정비 및 안전하도 유지를 위해서는 하상변동 특성을 면밀히 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 상류유역에서 하천으로 내려온 유사(流砂)는 하천의 흐름과 생태환경에 영향을 미친다. 이중 하천흐름은 사련(ripple)이나 사구(dune)의 형성에 영향을 미쳐, 하천의 지형변동인 사주에 영향을 주고 하천 식생의 성장과 발달에 직 간접적으로 간섭하게 된다. 또한, 교량, 취수장의 취수장애, 호안블럭의 침식 등과 같이 수리구조물의 안정에 영향을 주게 된다. 하천의 유사량 변화에 따라 생태계의 서식환경이 변하게 된다. 또한, 저수지에서 유입 유사량의 변화에 따라 저수지의 용적이 변하게 되어 댐의 설계 및 운영에 많은 영향을 끼치게 되며 특히 저수지 탁수관리에 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에는 4개 대권역의 주요지천 및 댐 직 하류하천 지점 중 적정구간을 선택하여 하상재료조사를 실시하였다. 하상재료 조사는 하도를 구성하는 모래와 자갈의 물리적 성질 중 유사의 이동량 및 하상의 변동, 하도설계 등에 관련 있는 입도분포, 비중 등을 측정하며 자갈하천은 표층 하상재료를 조사하고, 모래 재료는 체분석, 실트이하 재료는 BW관 등을 이용한 침강속도 분석을 실시한다. 주요지점의 중 남강의 안의 수위 우량관측소 지점의 상 하류 2km 구간을 200m마다 21개 지점의 하상재료를 채취하여 입도분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 남강 안의지점의 표층은 여느 하천과 마찬가지로 상 하류 굵은 자갈로 구성되어 있으며 전형적인 자갈하천의 특성을 보었다. 상류200m(2000m)에서는 최소 50mm(10mm), 최대 440mm(75mm), 평균입경은 174mm(34.7mm) 이었고, 하류200m(2000m)에서의 표층입경은 최소 8mm(25mm), 최대 50mm(110mm)이며 평균입경은 27.3mm(62.5mm)로 구성되어 있었다. 전체적으로 상류지역의 입경이 하류지역보다 큰 것을 관찰할 수 있었으며 유수 흐름의 일시적인 저항이 발생하는 안의교 지점의 자갈 입경이 인근 부근보다 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

일반적으로 유역에서 발생하는 토양손실은 붕괴사면과 표면침식, 토사류 붕괴에 의한 운반, 하상의 침식등 자연적인 요인과 도로건설, 산림의 벌채, 단지개발 등 인위적인 원인으로 발생할 수 있다. 토양손실의 발생은 농업생산성을 떨어뜨리고 목초지를 손상시키며, 물의 흐름을 방해하여 홍수위 상승, 저수지의 저수용량 감소, 고탁수 등 다양한 문제를 야기 시킨다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해선 우선 토양손실 발생의 위험지역을 선정하고 그 지역을 집중적으로 관리하는 적절한 관리 대책의 마련이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 낙동강유역 전체를 대상유역으로 선정하고 토양손실 발생에 영향을 주는 여러 요소중 도시화나 농경지 확장 등 인간의 인위적인 개발로 인해 쉽게 변경될 수 있는 토지이용도를 이용하여 세부적으로 분석하였다. 토지이용도를 구성하고 있는 총 8가지의 토지이용항목 중 다른 항목들에 비해 분포면적이 매우 작은 녹지, 습지, 나지를 제외한 5가지의 항목(시가화, 논, 밭, 산림, 수역)의 분포면적을 통해 토지 이용특성에 따른 유사발생의 연관성을 파악하였으며 유역별 유사발생 위험순위를 평가하였다. 유사발생 위험순위 평가결과, 전체 낙동강유역내 유사발생 위험성이 높은 표준유역들로 구성되어있는 중권역은 내성천, 위천합류점, 합천댐유역, 안동댐유역으로 모두 높은 순위를 차지했다. 내성천유역, 위천합류점 유역, 합천댐유역은 구성하고 있는 표준유역의 절반 이상이 높은 순위들로 구성되어 있으며 안동댐유역은 구성하고 있는 소수의 표준유역이 유역내 최상위 순위를 차지하였다.

Fine suspended solids (SS) induced into a reservoir after flood events play important ecological and water quality roles by presenting persistent turbidity and attenuating light. Thus the origin and physical features must be characterized to understand their transport processes and associated impacts, and for the establishment of watershed based prevention strategies. This study was aimed to characterize the physical properties of the SS sampled from Daecheong Reservoir and its upstream rivers during flood events. Extensive field and laboratory experiments were carried out to identify the turbidity-SS relationships, particle size distributions, settling velocity, and mineral compositions of the SS. Results showed that the turbidity-SS relationships are site-specific depending on the locations and flood events in the system. The turbidity measured within the reservoir was much greater than that measured in the upstream rivers for the same SS value. The effective diameters ($D_{50}$) in the rivers were in the range of $13.3{\sim}54.3{\mu}m$, while those in the reservoir were reduced to $2.5{\sim}14.0{\mu}m$ due to a fast settling of large particles in the rivers. The major minerals consisting of the SS were found to be Illite, Muscovite, Albite, and Quartz both in the rivers and reservoir. Their apparent settling velocities at various locations in the reservoir were in the range of 0.06~0.13 m/day. The research outcome provides a fundamental information for the fine suspended particles that cause persistent turbidity in the reservoir, and can be used as basic parameters for modeling study to search watershed based optimal control measures.
