  • 기후변화로 인하여 전 세계적으로 이상기후가 진행되고 있다. 우리나라의 경우 홍수와 가뭄 등의 이상 강수가 빈번히 발생하고 있으며, 이로 인한 비점오염물질의 유출과 집적이 발생하고 있다. SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool)과 HSPF (Hydrological Simulation Program)등의 다양한 모델이 비점오염의 유출을 모의하기 위하여 활용되고 있으나, 농장 단위에서 유역 단위까지 다양한 대상지역에 대한 장기 모의와 BMP적용에 따른 효율평가가 어려운 실정이다. Texas A&M Agrilife Research에서 개발한 APEX(Agricultural Policy Environmental eXtender model) 모형의 경우, 농장 단위에서 유역 단위의 대상지역에 대하여 최대 100년까지 일단위 모의가 가능한 특징이 있다. 하지만 APEX 모형은 개발된지 상당한 시간이 지났으며, 데스크탑 기반의 모형이므로 다양한 플랫폼에서의 활용이 어려운 한계점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 1. 기존 데스크탑 기반의 APEX 모형을 웹에서 구동할 수 있도록 웹 기반 시스템을 구축하였으며, 2. 양분유출에 대한 모의 평가가 가능하도록 결과를 시스템화하는 모듈을 추가하였다. 또한, 3. 웹 기반 APEX 모형의 활용도를 위하여 최적관리기법을 적용할 수 있는 모듈을 개발 및 추가하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 농업비점오염원 지역의 양분유출을 확인·예측하고 관리하기 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대하며, 최적관리기법을 활용한 저감 정책을 수립하기 위한 평가도구로 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 기존 데스크탑 기반의 모형을 웹 기반으로 이전하였으므로, APEX 모형 혹은 다른 데스크탑 기반 모형들의 웹 이전을 통한 사용자 편의성 증대를 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 아울러 본 연구의 결과는 APEX 모형의 작물 매개변수가 국내 환경에 최적화 되어있지 않으므로 정확한 BMP 저감효과 모의에는 한계가 있으므로, 이에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

  • We study the characteristic and total flux of non-point pollutants such as total suspended solids (TSS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), dissolved nutrients, total phosphorus (TP) and total nitrogen (TN) in the storm water runoff from urban streams and sewer outlets of Banweol Industrial Complex around Shihwa Lake. The concentrations of non-point pollutants were generally increased with increasing of the duration and intensity of rainfall. Mean TSS concentration of Ansan stream was higher than that of sewer outlets but mean concentrations of COD, TP and TN were approximately 2~5 times higher of sewer outlet than of urban stream. TSS showed statistically positive relationships with COD and TP but it had negative correlation with dissolved nutrients. There was a significant correlation between total flux of non-point pollutants in the storm water runoff and total basin area of each sewer outlet, showing that the highest runoff flux was observed at 3rd sewer outlet which represents the largest basin area from Banweol industrial complex. Total runoff fluxes for TSS, COD, TP and TN in this study were 187,536 kg, 17,118 kg, 922 kg, 13,519 kg, respectively. Given the basin area of sewer outlet in Banweol industrial complex which corresponds only 3% from total catchment area around Shihwa Lake, enormous amount of non-point pollutants will be entered into Shihwa Lake without any treatment. It is necessary to manage and reduce of various non-point sources and pollutants because the runoff of nonpoint pollutants during storm events should be deteriorating the water quality of Shihwa Lake. Our results provides useful informations on the development of best managements practices (BMPs) for effective implementation of total pollution loads management system of Shihwa Lake.

  • There has been growing demands to manage the water quality of west coastal region due to the large scale urbanization along the coastal zone, the possibility of application of TMDL(Total Maximum Daily Loadings) to Han river, and the natural disaster such as oil spill incident in Taean, Chungnam. However, no system has been developed for such purposes. In this background, the demand of GIS based effective water quality management has been increased to monitor water quality environment and propose best management alternatives for Han river and Kyeonggi bay. This study mainly focused on the development of integrated water quality management system for Han river bas in and its estuary are a connected to Kyeonggi bay to support integrated water quality management and its plan. Integration was made based on GIS by spatial linking between water quality attributes and location information. A GIS DB was built to estimate the amount of generated and discharged water pollutants according to TMDL technical guide and it included input data to use two different water quality models--W ASP7 for Han river and EFDC for coastal area--to forecast water quality and to suggest BMP(Best management Practices). The results of BOD, TN, and TP from WASP7 were used as the input to run EFDC. Based on the study results, some critical areas which have relatively higher pollutant loadings were identified, and it was also identified that the locations discharging water pollutant loadings to river and seasonal factor affected water quality. And the relationship of water quality between river and its estuary area was quantitatively verified. The results showed that GIS based integrated system could be used as a tool for estimating status-quo of water quality and proposing economically effective BMPs to mitigate water pollution. Further studies need to be made for improving system's capabilities such as adding decision making function as well as cost-benefit analysis, etc. Also, the concrete methodology for water quality management using the system need to be developed.

  • The urban areas have various landuses such as residential, commercial, industrial and official purposes that are highly concerned with human activities. The other landuses are relating to vehicle activities, which are roads, parking lots, bridges, parks etc. The mainly using landuses by human activities are possessing three different areas that are buildings, parking lots/roads and landscapes. Of these areas, the buildings and landscapes can be classified as non-pollution areas. However, the parking lots or roads are classifying as the main pollution areas because of vehicle activities. Therefore, the landuses arising the nonpoint pollution during a storm in urban areas are roads and parking lots. The vehicles are emitting lots of nonpoint pollutants such as metals and particulate matters and it is impacting on water qualities and aqua-ecosystems nearby the city areas. Therefore, this research was conducted for characterizing the pollutant types and determining the EMCs (Event Mean Concentrations) and unit pollutant loads during a storm. The monitoring was performed on 9 locations such as highways, service area, tollgates, parking lot and bridges. All of the landuses selected for monitoring are concerned with transportation. The results can be effectively used to predict the pollutant loading before urban planning and to select the BMPs (Best Management Practices) for reducing the pollution.

  • In recent years, riparian buffer system has been known as one of the effective best management practices. However, establishment of riparian buffer system in aspect of plant species and its position in the riparian buffer zone has not been investigated due to lack of efficient evaluation method for the analysis of water quality improvement with established riparian buffer system. To solve this problem, the SWAT-REMM prototype was developed by the researchers in Canada. But, SWAT-REMM model can not consider the $NO_3-N$ load into riparian buffer system through subsurface flow. Thus to solved this problem, Fortran code of SWAT-REMM model was modified. This modified SWAT-REMM system was applied to the Bonggok watershed. Three riparian buffer scenarios, 15 m, 10 m, 5 m width for tree and grass, were made to evaluate the effects of riparian buffer system on water quality improvement. Reduction efficiency of T-N by riparian buffer system of 15 m wide was the greatest (6 ~ 37%, depending on subwatershed characteristics) among 3 scenarios. It indicates that the reduction efficiency of T-N load has increasing-tendency, as buffer width increasing. The results obtained from the analysis showed that wide buffer zones are found to be more effective in reducing non-point pollutant than narrow buffer zones in the riparian buffer zone system. Hence, the SWAT-REMM model could be efficiently used for evaluation and design the most effective riparian buffer systems to reduce pollutant loads to the watershed although many limitations still exist in SWAT-REMM model.

  • Water quality model applicable paddy field was developed using field experiment during 1999 ${\sim}$ 2002. This model involves inputs from fertilization and sediment release as dirac delta function and continuous source function, respectively, and can simulate various processes such as ponded depth, surface drainage, total nitrogen concentration and total phosphorus concentration in a daily basis. The model was calibrated using data collected from field experiments which was irrigated with ground water and validated from field experiments which was irrigated with surface water. The nutrient concentration of surface water depended on the fertilization and dirac delta function can efficiently explain the valiance of nutrient concentration of surface water by fertilizer. As a result of calibration and validation, this model demonstrates good agreement. The model fit efficiencies ($R^2$) of ponded depth, surface concentration of TN and TP were 0.93,0.98 and 0.95, respectively for calibration, and those of TN and TP were 0.99 and 0.70, respectively for validation. We can apply lake and reservoir model to analysis paddy field considered with shallow ponded system, but it will need so many parameters and have much uncertainty. Fortunately, paddy field have a series of cultural practices yearly basis, such as irrigation-fertilization-forced drain-harvest with a similar time , so simple model may explain the mechanism for paddy field. Water quality model for paddy field developed in this study is simply, needs little parameters, but appeared high applicability to evaluate paddy filed drainage. We recommend this model to estimate nutrient loading from paddy field and establish best management practice.

  • Sampling campaigns were conducted for hazardous chemicals and heavy metals in influents and effluents of industrial wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in Korea for best management practices (BMPs) of those pollutants through the plants and the receiving water bodies. Twenty seven WWTPs, receiving wastewater from industrial complexes and treating more than $2,000m^3/day$, were selected for the sampling campaign. Influents and effluents of each WWTPs were sampled once a month (total three times per plant) between July and September, 2012, and analyzed for 22 hazardous water pollutants among 28 regulated for effluents limits in Korea. Concentrations of mercury, arsenic, 1,1-dichloroethylene, and benzene in the influents were relatively higher; concentrations of mercury and arsenic in effluents were relatively higher than those of other pollutants. Most of the hazardous chemicals and heavy metals were removed (including phase transfer) more than 60% through the treatment processes except for selenium (30% removal) and 1,4-dioxane (18% removal).

  • 최근 기후변화로 인해 태풍 등과 같은 집중성 강우가 많이 발생하고 있고, 강우시 유출 등으로 인한 유역내 발생하는 토양침식으로 인해 유역의 하천을 비롯하여 유출구에서의 탁수 및 유사 발생 문제는 우리나라 뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 심각한 환경문제로 대두되고 있다. 강우시 유역에서 발생하는 이러한 탁수문제를 효과적으로 해결하기 위하여 여러 최적관리기법 (Best Management Practices, BMPs) 들이 제안되어왔다. 본 연구의 목적은 볏짚매트 사용으로 인한 토양유실 저감 실측자료를 바탕으로 볏짚매트를 다양한 경사지 밭에 적용하였을 경우 유역에서의 토양유실 저감효과를 평가하기 위한 모델링 기법을 개발하는데 있다. 볏짚 매트의 효과를 Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) 모형으로 모의하기 위해서는 볏짚매트의 효과를 모형에서 반영할 수 있는 인자를 선택하여 최적의 인자값을 산정해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 유사 저감 효과 실험 결과를 VFSMOD-W 모형을 이용하여 USLE P 인자값을 도출하였으며, 경사도에 따른 USLE-P 값을 산정하여, SWAT 모형에 입력자료로 사용하였다. 분포형 모형과는 달리 준분포형 모형인 SWAT 모형은 소유역내 수문학적 반응단위별로 유출, 유사, 그리고 비점오염 발생을 평가하는데 이때 Hydrologic Response Unit (HRU)의 지형정보가 활용된다. 이 지형정보는 SWAT 유사 평가시 매우 민감한 변수중의 하나이기 때문에 유역 단위 유사 평가시 정확한 지형자료의 입력이 요구된다. 그러나 SWAT 모형은 소유역내 HRU의 경사도 및 경사장을 직접 산정하지 않고, 소유역의 평균경사도를 기준으로 하여 산정된 경사도를 소유역내 모든 HRU에 동일하게 적용하는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 준분포 모형인 SWAT 모형의 단점을 개선하기 위하여 SWAT Spatially Distributed (SD)-HRU를 적용하였다. 이를 통해 다양한 경사지 밭에서의 볏짚매트의 효과를 분석할 수 있게 되었다. 볏짚매트 미적용시 모의 기간내 유사량 총합은 74,954.42 ton 이고, 월평균 유사량은 814.72 ton 으로 산정되었고, 볏짚매트를 적용하였을 경우 모의 기간내 (2000년 1월 - 2007년 8월) 유사량 총합은 48,460.55 ton 이고, 월평균 유사량은 526.75 ton 으로 볏짚매트를 적용하지 않았을 때보다 약 35.35 % 저감된 값을 보였다. SD-HRU를 적용하고 각 농경지의 경사도에 따라 USLE P 값을 수정하여 볏짚매트에 의한 효과를 분석하였을 때, 볏짚매트를 적용하지 않았을 때 보다 볏짚매트를 적용하였을 때 모의 기간내 약 35% 정도의 유사량이 감소된 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과에서 보여주는 바와 같이 고랭지 지역에서의 영농활동 시 볏짚매트를 설치한다면 강우시 발생하는 토양유실을 효과적으로 저감시킬 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

  • 본 연구에서는 시험포장($1276.6m^2$)에서의 지표피복 BMPs (Best Management Practices) 시나리오를 적용하여 얻은 평균 유출저감율을 HSPF 모델에 적용하여 유역차원에서의 비점원오염 저감효과를 평가하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 별미천 유역($1.21km^2$)을 대상으로 모형의 적용을 위한 입력자료로 기상자료와 지형자료를 구축하였으며 기상자료로 수원, 양평, 이천 기상관측소 자료를 구축하였으며, 지형자료로 격자크기 2m의 DEM (Digital Elevation Model)과 토지이용도는 2006년 5월 1일 QuickBird 영상을 제공받아 기존 환경부, 건교부, USGS의 토지피복분류체계 및 현장조사를 통하여 QuickBird 영상으로부터 추출 가능한 정밀농업정보에 대한 항목을 결정하였으며, 정사보정된 QuickBird 영상을 스크린 디지타이징 기법(On-Screen Digitizing Method)을 이용하여 총 21개 토지이용항목의 정밀토지이용도를 구축하였다. 실제모니터링으로 측정된 자료를 바탕으로 수위-유량곡선 산정 및 오염부하곡선을 선정, 2011년 6월 8일부터 10월 31일 분석기간으로 HSPF 모델링을 실시하였으며 모의결과 월별 통계에 따른 적용성 분석으로 RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) 는 1.15 ~ 1.76(mm/day), $R^2$는 0.62 ~ 0.78, Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency (NSE)는 0.62 ~ 0.76로 모의치는 실측치와 유의성이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, Sediment, T-N, T-P의 $R^2$는 각각 0.72, 0.62, 0.63으로 상관성을 보이는 것으로 분석되었다. 시험포장으로부터 얻어진 event별 볏짚을 이용한 지표피복시나리오적용 후 밭에서의 평균 유출 약 10 % 유출율 감소 조건과 실제 평균 비점원오염 저감효과 89.7 % ~ 99.4 %의 결과로부터 지표피복효과의 침투효과를 HSPF 모델로 적용하기 위해 침투량(INFILT)를 조절하여 평균유출 약 10 %가 감소되는 16.0 mm/hr 값을 선정하였다. 그 결과, Sediment. T-N, T-P의 평균 저감율은 각각 87.2 %, 28.5 %, 85.1 %로 나타났으며 이는 시험포장에서의 실제 평균 비점오염 저감효과 89.7 % ~ 99.4 %에 근접함을 알 수 있었다. 이 결과로부터 침투량 조절에 따른 지표피복(침투짚단)효과는 Sediment, T-P에서 저감효율이 80 % 이상으로 높았지만 T-N은 약 30 %로 낮은 저감율을 보임으로써 저감효과가 크지 않음을 나타냈다.

  • Although the dominant land use at the Imha-dam watershed is forest areas, soil erosion has been increasing because of intensive agricultural activities performed at the fields located along the stream for easy-access to water supply and relatively favorable topography. In addition, steep topography at the Imha-dam watershed is also contributing increased soil erosion and sediment loads. At the Imha-dam watershed, outflow has increased sharply by the typhoons Rusa and Maemi in 2002, 2003 respectively. In this study, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was evaluated for simulation of flow and sediment behaviors with long-term temporal and spatial conditions. The precipitation data from eight precipitation observatories, located at Ilwol, Subi and etc., were used. There was no significant difference in monthly rainfall for 8 locations. However, there was slight differences in rainfall amounts and patterns in 2003 and 2004. The topographical map at 1:5000 scale from the National Geographic Information Institute was used to define watershed boundaries, the detailed soil map at 1:25,000 scale from the National Institute of Highland Agriculture and the land cover data from the Korea Institute of Water and Environment were used to simulate the hydrologic response and soil erosion and sediment behaviors. To evaluate hydrologic component of the SWAT model, calibration was performed for the period from Jan. 2002 to Dec. 2003, and validation for Jan. 2004 to Apr. 2005. The $R^2$ value and El value were 0.93 and 0.90 respectively for calibration period, and the $R^2$ value and El value for validation were 0.73 and 0.68 respectively. The $R^2$ value and El value of sediment yield data with the calibrated parameters was 0.89 and 0.84 respectively. The comparisons with the measured data showed that the SWAT model is applicable to simulate hydrology and sediment behaviors at Imha dam watershed. With proper representation of the Best Management Practices (BM Ps) in the SWAT model, the SWAT can be used for pre-evaluation of the cost-effective and sustainable soil erosion BMPs to solve sediment issues at the Imha-dam watershed. In Korea, the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) has been used to estimate the soil loss for over 30 years. However, there are limitations in the field scale mdel, USLE when applied for watershed. Also, the soil loss changes temporarily and spatially, for example, the Imha-dam watershed. Thus, the SW AT model, capable of simulating hydrologic and soil erosion/sediment behaviors temporarily and spatially at watershed scale, should be used to solve the muddy water issues at the Imha-dam watershed to establish more effective muddy water reduction countermeasure.
