The purpose of this study is to analyze the spatial relationship between the landslides occurred by typhoon, Rusa in 2002 and geospatial dataset. Landslide locations were detected using satellite image and field survey. Topogra-phy, soil, forest, geology and land use data sets were constructed as a spatial database in GIS. From the database, slope, aspect, curvature, water system, type of topography, texture, material, drainage, effective thickness of soil, type, age, diameter, density of wood, lithology, lineament of geology, land use and lineament were used as the land-slide occurrence factors. Using a frequence ratio model, the spatial relationships between the landslides and the factors were extracted. The spatial relationships is helpful to explain the characteristics of the landslide, and to make landslide susceptibility map.

Precipitation is the most important component and critical to the study of water and energy cycle. This study investigates the propagation of precipitation retrieval uncertainty in the simulation of hydrologic variables for varying spatial resolution on two different vegetation cover. We explore two remotely sensed rain retrievals (space-borne IR-only and radar rainfall) and three spatial grid resolutions. An offline Community Land Model (CLM) was forced with in situ meteorological data In turn, radar rainfall is replaced by the satellite rain estimates at coarser resolution $(0.25^{\circ},\;0.5^{\circ}\;and\;1^{\circ})$ to determine their probable impact on model predictions. Results show how uncertainty of precipitation measurement affects the spatial variability of model output in various modelling scales. The study provides some intuition on the uncertainty of hydrologic prediction via interaction between the land surface and near atmosphere fluxes in the modelling approach.

Grouting is frequently used before the construction of subsea tunnels to mitigate problems that can occur in weak ground zones such as joints, faults or unconsolidated settlements during construction. The grout material injected into rock mass often flows through the discontinuities present in the host rock and hence, joint properties such as its distribution, roughness and thickness greatly affect the properties of grouting-improved rocks. The grouting-improved zones near subsea tunnels are also subjected to high water pressures that can cause long-term weathering in the form of changes in grout microstructure and crack formation and lead to subsequent changes in ground properties. Therefore, an assessment method is needed to accurately measure changes in the grouting-improved zones near subsea tunnels. In this study, the elastic wave propagation characteristics in grouting-improved rocks were tested for various axial stress levels, curing time, joint roughness and thickness conditions under laboratory conditions and the results were compared with wave velocity standards in different Korean rock mass classification systems to provide a basis for inferring improvement in grouted rock-mass.

This study used four theoretical models, such as two-point linear model, linear regression model, quadratic regression model and cubic regression model which are presented from The Ministry of Science and Technology, for extraction of urban surface temperature from Landsat TM band 6 image. Through correlation and regression analysis between result of four models and AWS(automatic weather station) observation data, this study could verify spatial distribution characteristic of urban surface temperature using GIS spatial analysis method. The result of analysis for surface temperature by landcover showed that the urban and the barren land belonged to the highest surface temperature class. And there was also -0.85 correlation in the result of correlation analysis between surface temperature and NDVI. In this result, the meteorological environmental characteristics wuld be regarded as one of the important factor in urban planning.

The grout based on solution type makes it difficult to get the improvement of ground strength and the effefct of water curtain because it has lower strength and durability than suspension type. Nowadays, the technology of particle acceleration, that enhance the material permeability, such as grout based on solution type, and inexpensive grout, is being required. For these reasons, in this study, using wet milling system, we evaluated physical properties of manufactured factors such as water-cement ratio of particles before being milled, optimum milling capacity by controlling milling time and rpm, viscosity of materials, permeation coefficient, and unconfined compressive strength. Also, using micro wet milling apparatus which could manufacture ordinary Portland cement and high speed shear mix which could forcefully separate conglomerate particles in situ, we performed electrical resistivity investigation and falling head permeability tests to analyze differences of grouting effects. From these results, we found that the permeability of the applied equipment was much superior, and in the case of using high speed shear mixer, particles of grout material were well separated.

최근 들어 기후변화에 따른 강우패턴이 바뀌고 각종 하천개발이나 토목공사, 농경지, 경작지 등의 객토 등으로 인해 매년 탁수의 발생이 크게 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 특히 여름철 집중강우의 영향에 따라 상류지역 하천에서 발생하는 부유물질은 호수로 유입되어 장기간 체류하며 심각한 오염원으로서 수중생태계에 치명적인 영향을 주고 있다. 또한 하천과 호수의 상류지역의 농경지나 경작지에서 발생된 부유물질에는 과도한 비료의 사용으로 입자표면에 많은 인을 포함하고 있어 호수 수질악화 및 부영양화의 직접적 요인이 되고 있다. 이에 따라 세계 각국에서는 부유물질은 오염원뿐 아니라 생태계에 영향을 주는 인자로서 엄격히 규제하고 있으며, 특히 농업지역이 많은 하천에 대해서는 유역전체를 대상으로 부유물질에 대한 총량관리를 적용하고 있다. 그러나 우리나라의 경우 하천 수질기준 1급수의 부유물질 농도는 25 mg/l 로서 이는 선진국과 유사한 기준이나 실질적으로 규제가 어려운 실정이다. 수환경에서의 부유물질이란 수체 내 존재하는 유기성, 무기성 물질로써 입자 지름이 2mm 이하의 물에 용해되지 않는 물질을 말하는 것으로, 물의 탁도를 유발시키는 원인이 되며 빛을 차단하여 수생태계에 악영향을 초래한다. 국내 132개 하천을 대상으로 부유물질의 농도와 어류의 종 다양성간 상관성을 조사한 결과, 부유물질의 농도가 15 ~ 20 mg/l 이상에서 종 다양도는 1.0 이하로 급감하는 경향을 보였다(최재석 등, 2004). 한편, 대청호는 1975년부터 1980년에 걸쳐 건립된 저수 면적 $72.8km^2$, 저수량 15억톤의 인공호수로 우리나라 3번째 규모의 인공호수이다. 특히, 대전 및 청주지역의 식수는 물론, 생활용수 및 공업용수를 공급하는 중요한 수자원으로서 부유물질에 대한 모니터링 및 관리가 시급하나 저수 용량이 크고 체류시간이 길어 여름철 부영양화가 매년 반복되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부유물질의 농도 변화에 따른 분광반사 특성을 조사하고, 이를 대청호의 Landsat 위성영상에 적용하여 대청호 내 부유물질의 농도변화를 추정하였다. 이와 함께 부유물질 농도 변화에 따른 탁수 환경 모니터링에 원격탐사 기법이 효과적임을 제시하고자 하였다.

저수지 수질모형의 기초자료로서의 수체의 수리학적 인자는 물리적인 자료이므로 많은 실측 자료를 필요로 한다. 이러한 자료의 취득을 위하여 수체의 수심을 측정하고, 대상구역의 수계특성을 잘 반영할 수 있도록 수체를 분할하여 각 구간별 수체 중심, 특성길이, 연직 및 수평 단면적, 수표면적, 수체적, 수로경사 등을 구하여 사용한다. 이러한 자료의 취득은 여러 가지 어려움으로 인하여 조사지점이 조밀하지 못하거나 계간방법이 개발되지 못하는 등의 이유로 인하여 실제값과 상당한 차이를 나타내기도 하므로 이를 개선할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 최근에 개발된 다중 음향탐사기 (MBES)는 초음파를 발사하여 하상에서 반사한 파의 시간을 측정하고 거리로 환산하여 수심을 측정하는 것으로 여러 지점의 수심을 동시에 스캔할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 또한 MBES는 수신기의 지향각이 존재하므로 파의 반사지점을 정확하게 파악할 수 있다. 단일 음향측심기는 측선을 따라 수심을 측정하므로 조사간격이 넓어 정확한 수로정보를 얻기에는 미흡한 점이 있으나 MBES는 수체 전체를 $1\times1m$ 당 $4\~5$ 번의 측정하고, 변화가 심한 호저면에서도 수심오차 $5\~8 cm$의 고분해능을 갖는다. 이를 이용하면 하상의 수심에 내한 3차원의 연속분포를 생성하고, 하상의 지형적인 특징을 조사${\cdot}$ 분석할 수 있으며 하상의 성상과정에 관한 기초자료로도 활용한 수 있다. 수체정보를 산정할 때 단일 음향측심법은 간접적으로 자료를 취득하므로 주관적인 견해 및 큰 오차를 내포하고 있으나, MBES는 Hypack Max를 이용하여 구획한 구간에 따른 수표면적과 연직단면적 및 수체적을 자동으로 계산한다. 그리고 측정한 자료의 raw data를 이용하면 각 구간에 대한 무게중심을 구하여 중점으로 사용 가능하고, 종방향의 구축을 산정하여 수로의 깊이 및 중심간 길이를 정확하게 계산할 수 있다.

We have studied a denoising technique involving wavelet transform for improving the quality of geophysical data during the preprocessing stage. To assess the effectiveness of this technique, we have made synthetic data contaminated by random noises and compared the results of denoising with those obtained by conventional low-pass filtering. The low-pass filtering of the sinusoidal signal having a sharp discontinuity between the first and last sample values shows apparent errors related to Gibbs' phenomena. For the case of bump signal, the low-pass filtering induces maximum errors on peak values by removing some high-frequency components of signal itself. The wavelet transform technique, however, denoises these signals with much less adverse effects owing to its pertinent properties on locality of wavelet and easy discrimination of noise and signal in the wavelet domain. The field data of gravity tide are denoised by using soft threshold, which shrinked all the wavelet coefficients toward the origin, and the G-factor is determined by comparing the denoised data and theoretical data.

On the relationship between the red tide occurrence and the oceanographic factors in the middle coastal area in the South Sea of Korea, the favorable oceanographic conditions for the red tide formation are considered as follows； the calm weather increases sea water temperature in summer and early-fall which the red tide occurs frequently, and the heavy precipitation brings some riverine water to ween: low salinity, high suspended solid, low phosphorus and high nitrogen, respectively. We decided the potential areas in the coastal zones vulnerable to the red tide occurrence based on the limited factors controlling the growth of phytoplankton. By using GIS through the overlap for three subject figures (phosphorus, nitrogen and suspended solids), it was founded that the potential areas are the Yeosu∼Dolsan coast, the Gamak bay, the Namhae coast, the Narodo coast, the Goheung and Deukryang bay. This result has very well coincided to the results of the satellite and in-situ data.

The outgoing longwave radiation (Rlu) for estimation of evapotranspiration is essential to understand energy balance of earth. However, the ground measurement based Rlu has a limitation that the observation can just stand for the exact site, not for an area. In this study, remote sensing technique is adopted to compensate the limitation of ground observation using the geostationary satellite. We calculated Rlu using Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS). We validated Rlu from COMS with Cheongmicheon (CFK) and Sulmacheon (SMK) flux tower observations controlled by Hydrological Survey Center. The results showed that Rlu from COMS represented reasonable correlation with ground based measurement. Based on the results in this study, COMS will be able to be used for estimation of evapotranspiration.
