우리나라는 계절별 강수량 변화가 크기 때문에 하천개발 및 관리에 어려움이 많을 뿐만 아니라 하천에 설치된 많은 취수보와 같은 하천횡단구조물로 인해서 하천 생태계가 악화되어 있다. 최근 들어 하천생태 복원을 위하여 자연형 하천 조성사업과 보에 어도설치가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 어류 소상에 효과적인 어도를 설치하기 위해서는 하천에 서식하는 다양한 어류에 대한 어류역학적인 특성이 필요하나 이에 대한 조사연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 특히 어류의 유영력이나 도약력은 어도의 설계의 완성도 및 어도시설 운영관리에서 대단히 중요한 요소이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우리나라 하천에 널리 서식하는 어류인 피라미를 대상으로 도약능력에 관하여 실험하였다. 어류의 도약능력은 낙차가 있는 흐름에서 어류가 상류로 이동하기 위한 중요한 이동수단이다. 어류의 도약에 영향을 미치는 어도 인자로는 격벽높이, 월류수심, 유속, 어도경사 및 유량을 들 수 있다. 피라미의 도약능력 실험은 폭 28cm, 길이 140cm인 개수로에서 격벽높이는 5${\sim}$10cm, 월류수심 1.2${\sim}$5cm, 낙차 약 4cm의 조건으로 이루어졌다. 실험유량은 약 0.378${\ell}$/s이고, 경사는 1:20${\sim}$1:15 이다. 도약능력은 소상율의 크기로 판단하였으며 피라미의 소상율은 격벽높이 10cm와 월류수심 3cm에서 유속 4.19cm/sec일 때를 정점으로 유속의 증가에 따라 급격히 감소하였다. 이는 어류의 생태적인 특성과 작은 유속이 어류이동 유인효과에 영향이 작기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 또한 피라미의 체장이 클수록 소상율도 증가하는 관계를 나타내었다.

서울시 한강본류(이하 한강)의 4대 지류하천인 안양천, 중랑천, 탄천, 홍제천은 한강과 도심을 연결하는 도심 자연생태계의 중심공간이자, 서울시민의 대표적인 친수환경 공간으로서 그 관리의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 한강의 수위변화는 서울시 주요 지류하천의 수리, 수질, 생태, 친수 등 물환경 전반에 영향을 미친다. 최근 기후변화와 관리정책의 변화로 인해 한강의 수위변화 요인이 증가하고 있다. 그 중, 하천의 환경 및 생태적인 기능이 부각됨에 따라 한강의 물길회복을 통한 자연성 회복을 위해 한강하류에 설치된 횡단구조물인 신곡수중보의 해체, 또는 개방이 주요하게 논의 되어오고 있다. 이에 따라, 신곡수중보의 해체 및 개방이 한강에 미치는 영향을 다각적인 측면에서 검토하였지만, 지류하천의 물환경 변화에 대한 영향검토는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 신곡수중보 개방 및 해체에 따른 한강 본류와 서울시 주요 지류하천의 수위변화를 예측하고, 주요 지류하천에서 발생가능한 물환경 이슈를 분석하였다. 신곡수중보의 개방 또는 해체는 한강의 수위변화에 대한 조석의 영향을 증가시켜 한강의 수위저하와 수위변동성도 크게 증가되는 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 지류하천 중 하류부에 낙차공과 같은 수위유지 기능이 있는 구조물이 설치되지 않은 안양천과 중랑천의 하류부에서 흐름단면 최대 70%이상 감소, 유속 2배이상 증가 등 큰 수리변화를 유발하는 것으로 분석되었다. 이로 인해 안양천과 중랑천에서는 유속 증가에 따른 하상변화와 대규모 노출지 발생, 생태계 훼손 문제, 수위저하에 따른 수심유지 문제, 수체감소에 따른 오염도 증가와 악취문제, 하천경관 및 하천이용 문제 등의 물환경 이슈가 발생할 것으로 예측되었으며. 특히, 1970년 이전 중랑천 한강 합류지점에 위치했던 저자도의 복구/복원이 향후 주요한 이슈로 부각될 것으로 예상되었다.

Lateral connectivity between a main channel and a former channel plays an integral role in maintaining ecological functions of stream-floodplain ecosystems. This study virtually restored the connectivity of the former channel, which is currently isolated by channelization, in the Mangyeong River, Korea. Fish habitat improvement after the connectivity restoration was evaluated using River2D, two-dimensional depth-averaged hydraulic modeling, depending on normal and flood flow conditions. Target fish species were crucian carp (Carassius auratus), which are known as lentic species, and pale chub (Zacco platypus), known as lotic species. The weighted usable area (WUA) of the two species was increased after the connectivity restoration: the two-way connection between the main and formal channels was more effective than the one-way connection. The result of the physical habitat simulation at a flood flow condition demonstrated an increased rate of the WUA than during a normal flow condition. In particular, the WUA of pale chub increased about four times on the two-way connectivity restoration. This result suggests that habitat availability of both lentic and lotic fish species will increase after a connectivity restoration, and a two-way connectivity restoration may be more effective. In addition, the restored formal channel would function as a shelter for fish during the flood season.

The monitoring of vegetation and water quality before(2003), during(2004) and after(2005) the restoration work of Cheonggye Stream indicated that $BOD_5$ concentration before the project averaged 51.1mg/L and that both the inflow of water from Hang River and the funnel of subway station water into the stream lowered the $BOD_5$ to 3.3mg/L, improving its water quality to the third grade. Species of plants slightly increased from 121 to 132 after the restoration. Specifically, perennial plant comprised 35.6%, an increase from 24.8% recorded before the restoration. Phragmites communis and Zoysia japonica communities were observed as the introduction vegetation. However, Humulus japonicus and Erigeron canadensis communities, which were classified into the first grade according to the vegetation conservation classification, were found to be still prevailing though they were dominant community before the restoration, meaning that the ecological condition of plants had not changed very significantly. An the other hand the water quality of the reference reach was classified into the first grade based on $BOD_5$, which implies the water quality of the section was better than the project reaches. Besides the section had more diverse plant species which numbered 154, and furthermore, the rate of immigrated plants comprised 13% which was lower than 28.8% recorded by the project sections. The project reaches are considered to be inferior to the reference section in terms of ecological condition. The effectiveness of the stream restoration cannot be determined only by such short-term investigation as was conducted in this study, and it is considered that the effectiveness of the restoration of Cheonggye Stream can be determined only if investigations in other major factors are conducted over the long-term period.

In this study, an evaluation method was proposed to determine the restoration section in the riverine ecobelt project. The target river for this study is the Hongcheon river in Kangwon-do. The Hongcheon river of 96 km was divided longitudinally into subsections of 2 km. The analysis through map and aerial photograph as well as field surveys were performed in 48-sub-sections. The fragmentation items were classified into connectivity and ecological functionality. The connectivity fragmentation was also divided into two items: the area discontinuity of the land use and the line discontinuity of river bank and road. Also, the ecological functional fragmentation was evaluated by using the items of river channel, river bed, vegetation, and the obstruction of river flow. These items was modified from those in the previous literature. From map analyses and field surveys, the fragmentation score was kept with each items in 48 sub-sections of Hongcheon river. The fragmentation rate was made from the total score in each section. The results showed that sections from F1 to G2 was evaluated to have high rates of all connectivity and functionality fragmentation of 1st or 2nd rate. Other sections have high connectivity fragmentation of 2nd rate, but low functional fragmentation. Thus, these sections are evaluated to be excludible in restoration site. This study seems to make a contribution to evaluate the fragmented sections for the riverine ecobelt project.

The significant aim of this research is to suggest the applicable data for the future urban ecological restoration of rivers' activity and the direction of the future eco-experience program found by analyzing the state and progress of the restoration of the river ecological experience program. For this purpose, we researched the eco-experience program's outline and details of its operation and method from six rivers among all of the rivers going through restoration. We also carried out telephone interviews and in-depth interviews with the office staff that takes care about each river at the district office to investigate the specific details not revealed by our analysis, the number of operations, and the number of participants. We compared the number of operations to the number of participants and the frequency of participation of each river in a year. As a result, they have revealed that the participants of the eco-experience program ranged in variety including local students, families, and local citizens as a whole. Also the intimate observation and experience with nature gave the participants a better understanding of the ecosystem. In addition, it is revealed that the cheonggye river goes through its own standard of strict inspections and management daily. It is quite easy to notice that the cheonggye river shows a higher level of participation and operating activity than other rivers.

The inappropriate hydraulic design criteria on the new revetment technique for the ecological river restoration project happens to lead to economic loss during the flood season. In this study, the hydraulic stability of the developed non-toxic revetment was evaluated at a maximum discharge of $3.0m^3/s$ and a maximum velocity of 3.0 m/s in a real scale experimental channel. The vertical movement of the non-toxic revetment block was in the range of ${\pm}3mm$ mm in the experimental conditions. The results show that the non-toxic revetment block was sufficiently hydraulically secured.

최근에 경제성장과 도시화로 인하여, 하천의 복원사업이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히, 하천복원 사업은 생태계 및 경관의 기능이 강조되고 있으며, 사회적으로 이에 대한 요구가 매우 높아지고 있다. 하천복원 사업을 추진함에 있어서 하천의 제방 법면의 처리에 대하여 많은 시도가 진행되고 있다. 특히, 식생매트는 안정적이면서 자연재료를 활용하여 생태계의 다양성과 녹색 경관을 형성할 수 있어서 많이 도입되고 있다. 그러나 이에 대한 홍수의 안정성 검토가 거의 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 식생매트에 대하여 실외실험을 통하여 홍수에 대한 안정성 및 내침식성 특성을 파악하였다. 식생매트의 표면에 있는 돌기는 유수 중에 부력에 의해 위로 상승하며 수중에서 식생의 역할을 하게 되며, 유수의 직접적인 영향을 저감시키는데 매우 중요한 역할을 하게 된다. 따라서 흐름에 대한 식생매트의 법면보호 효과를 증대시키기 위해서는 법면과 식생매트의 부착을 크게 하고, 식생매트를 부착시키는 앵커의 수중 노출을 최대한 저감하며, 유수 중에 앵커의 식생매트의 부력에 대한 지지력을 증가시키는 것이 중요하다. 또한 식생매트와 식생매트의 접합부에 유수 중에서 흐름의 집중이 발생하지 않도록 시공이 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 연구의 실험 결과는 복강첩이(福岡捷二)등(1987)이 제시한 식생의 활착에 의해 뿌리의 깊이에 대한 내침식성 특성과 비교하였다. 부직포가 2겹일 경우에 식생매트의 내침식성 강도는 복강첩이(福岡捷二)등(1987)에 의하여 제시된 식생뿌리 깊이가 10 cm 인 경우보다 약간 작으나, 부직포가 3겹일 경우에는 경우에는 복강첩이(福岡捷二)등(1987)에 의하여 제시된 식생뿌리 깊이가 10 cm 인 경우와 잘 일치하는 것을 보여주고 있다. 또한 부직포가 4겹일 경우에는 식생매트의 내침식성 강도는 복강첩이(福岡捷二)등(1987)에 의하여 제시된 식생뿌리 깊이가 10 cm 인 경우보다 큰 것을 보여주고 있다. 또한 평균 침식깊이는 부직포가 2겹일 경우에 평균 3.8 cm이며, 부직포가 3겹일 경우에 평균 3.4 cm 이었다. 부직포가 4겹일 경우에는 평균 침식깊이는 3.0 cm 이었다.

The fish community of small freshwater ecosystems gets easily disturbed by direct or indirect human induced disturbances during the period of urbanization. Urbanization is one of factors that generate changes in stream and influences fish fauna in developed countries. This study was conducted in Busan Metropolitan City from 2001 to 2004. In order to investigate the fish community, the city was divided into 3 parts, eastern, central and western. A total of 3,206 individuals of 46 species from 19 families were collected from 55 sites. The dominant species was Rhynchocypris oxycephalus, whereas Zacco temminckii was the subdominant species. Cluster analysis was conducted using primary freshwater fish species collected from each stream. As a result of the analysis, study sites were well differentiated into 3 parts. Two species of Z. temminckii and R. oxycephalus represented the upper part of the stream and Carassius cuvieri, Acheilognathus rhombeus, Hemiculter eigenmanni and Micropterus salmoides represented the middle and lower parts of the stream. When compared with previous studies, fish community of the eastern part of the Busan city where urbanization is in progress, showed similar patterns to the central part. At the time of the habitat restoration of fish fauna in stream, appropriate selection of fish species should be made through analysis of stream character and biogeographic distribution of fish, and long-term monitoring is also needed for sustaining the management of fish fauna.

River restoration or rehabilitation should be conducted in a way to maximize the channel stability with natural river configuration close to the equilibrium condition considering divers aspects of fluvial hydraulics, erosion and sedimentation, fluvial geomorphology, and ecological environment and to minimize the maintenance work. Therefore, the channel stability evaluation for present condition based on the equilibrium channel concept should be preceded for the river restoration project. Methods for equilibrium channel theory have generally been developed following either analytical regime theory or empirical regime theory. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the stability of present channel condition for the section of abandoned channel restoration in Cheongmi Stream using the Stable channel Analytical Model (SAM) and equilibrium hydraulic geometry equations. The results of analytical and empirical regime theories should provide fundamental and essential information to design the stable channel geometry. As a calculation result of Copeland's method for the study reach, the equilibrium channel has a narrower channel width, deeper water depth, and more gentle slope than the present channel geometry. As results of equilibrium hydraulic geometry equations, predicted equilibrium widths are less than the channel width in the field. It is represented that the current bed slope must be gentle to reach the equilibrium condition according to the results of Julien and Wargadalam method.
