Kwon et al.(2008) carried out a hydraulic experiment in order to evaluate Manning coefficient, which implicates flow resistance due to bottom friction as well as drag caused by the squared piers higher than water depth and arranged with equal intervals, under the flow condition with a constant drag coefficient, $Re>10^4$. And, based on the equation of equilibrium, they proposed a formula for the equivalent resistant coefficient including empirical drag interaction coefficient obtained by using the experimental results. In this study, the hydraulic experiment was simulated using FLOW-3D, a 3-dimensional computational fluid dynamic code. The computations were compared with the experiment results as well as the semi-theoretical formula, and the comparisons show a good agreement. From the agreement, it was confirmed that when flow resistance bodies were higher than water depth, Manning n value increases with 2/3 power of water depth as shown in the theoretical formula and that drag interaction coefficient was dominated by their intervals.

The maximum upper limit of seawater inflow can be recognized by the acid-resistant dinoflagellate cysts and salt-marsh pollen encountered from surface samples in the lower reach of Jujin Stream facing Gomso Bay. Based on their relative yield ratio, the downstream area of Jujin Stream could be further subdivided into coastal marine, brackish-upper limit brackish, and freshwater environments. The abundance of dinoflagellate cysts from JJR-41 to JJR-36 sites reflects that this area is a coastal marine. In the section between JJR-35 and JJR-5 sites, dinoflagellate cysts associated with pollen derived from riparian or salt-marsh (e.g., reeds and sedges) appear to reflect the brackish environments. It may be indicated that dinoflagellate cysts appear up to the JJR-4 site, which is the maximum upper limit where seawater flows up to this point at high tide. This analysis is relatively well corresponding to the hypothetical inundation map showing the maximum flooding area where seawater can flow at high tide.

Due to climate change, there is an increasing risk of complex (hybrid) disasters, comprising rising sea-levels, typhoons, and torrential rains. This study focuses on Marine City, Busan, a new residential city built on a former landfill site in Suyeong Bay, which recently suffered massive flood damage following a combination of typhoons, storm surges, and wave overtopping and run-up. Preparations for similar complex disasters in future will depend on risk impact assessment and prioritization to establish appropriate countermeasures. A framework was first developed for this study, followed by the collection of data on flood prediction and socioeconomic risk factors. Five socioeconomic risk factors were identified: (1) population density, (2) basement accommodation, (3) building density and design, (4) design of sidewalks, and (5) design of roads. For each factor, absolute criteria were determined with which to assess their level of risk, while expert surveys were consulted to weight each factor. The results were classified into four levels and the risk level was calculated according to the sea-level rise predictions for the year 2100 and a 100-year return period for storm surge and rainfall: Attention 43 %, Caution 24 %, Alert 21 %, and Danger 11 %. Finally, each level, indicated by a different color, was depicted on a complex disaster risk map.

In this study, the two-dimensional flow analysis model Hydro_AS-2D model was used to simulate the situation of flooding in Seongsangu and Uichang-gu in Changwon in the event of rising sea levels and extreme flooding, and the results were expressed on three-dimensional topography and the optimal evacuation path was derived using BIM technology. Climate change significantly affects two factors in terms of flood damage: rising sea levels and increasing extreme rainfall ideas. The rise in sea level itself can not only have the effect of flooding coastal areas and causing flooding, but it also raises the base flood level of the stream, causing the rise of the flood level throughout the stream. In this study, the rise of sea level by climate change, the rise of sea level by storm tidal wave by typhoon, and the extreme rainfall by typhoon were set as simulated conditions. The three-dimensional spatial information of the entire basin was constructed using the information of topographical space in Changwon and the information of the river crossing in the basic plan for river refurbishment. Using BIM technology, the target area was constructed as a three-dimensional urban information model that had information such as the building's height and location of the shelter on top of the three-dimensional topographical information, and the results of the numerical model were expressed on this model and used for analysis for evacuation planning. In the event of flooding, the escape route is determined by an algorithm that sets the path to the shelter according to changes in the inundation range over time, and the set path is expressed on intuitive three-dimensional spatial information and provided to the user.

2016년 태풍 "차바"로 인한 부산과 울산지역의 침수 및 2003년 발생한 태풍 "매미"로 인한 마산창원지역의 침수사례는 우리나라 해안도시유역이 해수면 상승에 의한 피해에 노출되어 있음을 간접적으로 입증하는 대표적 사례라 할 수 있다. IPCC 4차 평가보고서에 따르면 전 지구적 차원에서 지난 100년 동안 해수면은 약 1.7 m 상승하였으며, 1961~2003년 사이 해수면 상승률은 연평균 3.1 mm에 이르고 있다. 특히 우리나라 남해안은 연평균 3.4 mm씩 상승하고 있어 전 세계 해수면 평균 상승속도를 상회하고 있다. 또한 1990년대 이전보다 이후 기간에 우리나라에 영향을 준 태풍의 수가 많으며 평균적으로 태풍의 강도 및 해일고가 증가하고 있다. 따라서 전 지구적 해수면 상승과 태풍해일고 증가에 따른 복합적인 해수면 상승으로 인한 해안유역의 침수피해가 증가할 것으로 예상되며 특히 미래 발생 가능한 수퍼태풍에 의한 급격한 해일고의 상승은 해안유역에 침수피해를 더욱 가중시킬 것이라 예상된다. 특히 해수면 상승으로 인한 침수피해 특성은 홍수유출에 의한 내륙 침수피해와는 다른 특성을 보이고 있어 이에 대한 대응기법 개발이 절실한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해수면 상승에 따른 해안도시지역 대한 침수피해 예방 및 저감을 위한 침수모의기법을 개발하고 효율적 대응방안을 선정하는 기법을 제안하였다. 부정류 특성을 지닌 해수면 상승 경계조건 및 건물 간 도로를 통해 흐름이 발생하는 특성을 고려하여 해안지역의 시공적 침수규모 및 유속 등을 예측할 수 있는 2차원 수치모형을 개발하였다. 2003년 발생한 태풍 "매미" 발생 기간 동안 관측된 실제 해일고를 적용하여 창원 등 해안도시유역에 범람모의를 수행하였으며 실제 침수흔적과 비교함으로써 모형을 검증하였다. 또한 해안 경계선을 따라 월파방지벽을 설치하는 경계조건을 도입하여 월파방지벽 높이에 따른 해안도시유역 침수규모를 산정하여 월파방지벽 높이에 따른 시공적 침수규모를 분석함으로써 월파방지벽의 효과를 확인하였다. 본 연구결과는 해안지역 지점별 침수규모 및 최대 침수심 발생시간을 제공함으로써 침수에 따른 중장기적 구조적 대응방안 수립은 물론 초단기적 예상 해수면 상승에 다른 대피경로 제공 등 비구조적 수재해 대응 기법을 제시하는 기초자료를 제공에 활용 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Tidal datums are key and basic information used in fields of navigation, coastal structures' design, maritime boundary delimitation and inundation warning. In Korea, the Approximate Lowest Low Water (ALLW) and the Approximate Highest High Water (AHHW) have been used as levels of tidal datums for depth, coastline and vertical clearances in hydrography and coastal engineering fields. However, recently the major maritime countries including USA, Australia and UK have adopted the Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT) and the Highest Astronomical Tide (HAT) as the tidal datums. In this study, 1-hr interval 19-year sea level records (1999-2017) observed at 9 tidal observation stations along the west and south coasts of Korea were used to calculate LAT and HAT for each station using 1-minute interval 19-year tidal prediction data yielded through three tidal harmonic methods: 19 year vector average of tidal harmonic constants (Vector Average Method, VA), tidal harmonic analysis on 19 years of continuous data (19-year Method, 19Y) and tidal harmonic analysis on one year of data (1-year Method, 1Y). The calculated LAT and HAT values were quantitatively compared with the ALLW and AHHW values, respectively. The main causes of the difference between them were explored. In this study, we used the UTide, which is capable of conducting 19-year record tidal harmonic analysis and 19 year tidal prediction. Application of the three harmonic methods showed that there were relatively small differences (mostly less than ±1 cm) of the values of LAT and HAT calculated from the VA and 19Y methods, revealing that each method can be mutually and effectively used. In contrast, the standard deviations between LATs and HATs calculated from the 1Y and 19Y methods were 3~7 cm. The LAT (HAT) differences between the 1Y and 19Y methods range from -16.4 to 10.7 cm (-8.2 to 14.3 cm), which are relatively large compared to the LAT and HAT differences between the VA and 19Y methods. The LAT (HAT) values are, on average, 33.6 (46.2) cm lower (higher) than those of ALLW (AHHW) along the west and south coast of Korea. It was found that the S_a and N₂ tides significantly contribute to these differences. In the shallow water constituents dominated area, the M₄ and MS₄ tides also remarkably contribute to them. Differences between the LAT and the ALLW are larger than those between the HAT and the AHHW. The asymmetry occurs because the LAT and HAT are calculated from the amplitudes and phase-lags of 67 harmonic constituents whereas the ALLW and AHHW are based only on the amplitudes of the 4 major harmonic constituents.

The objectives of this study are: (1) to compare the rates and pathways of organic matter minerlaization at stagnant freshwater wetland in Shiwha to highly irrigated coastal wetland in Ganghwa; and (2) to discuss the significance of irrigation into the sediment in controlling the organic carbon oxidation in Shiwha wetland. Concentrations of $CO_2$, $NH_4{^+}$ and $H_2S$ in the pore water of the Shiwha wetland were 3 times, 30 times, and 3 times higher than that in the pore water of the Ganghwa wetland, respectively. The ratio of Fe(III) to total reduced sulfur at the Ganghwa wetland was 12 times higher than at the Shiwha wetland. The results indicated that the Ganghwa wetland with frequent tidal inundation were relatively oxidized than highly stagnant Shiwha wetland. Rates of organic matter oxidation at the Ganghwa wetland ($0.039mM\;C\;h{-1}$) was 390 times higher than that at the Shiwha wetland ($0.0001mM\;C\;h{-1}$). Rates of sulfate reduction at the Shiwha wetland ($314{\sim}580nmol\;cm^{-3}\;d{-1}$) were comparable to the sulfate reduction at Ganghwa wetland ($2{\sim}769nmol\;cm^{-3}\; d{-1}$), whereas Fe(III) reduction rates were 1.7 times higher at the Ganghwa wetland ($0.1368{\mu}mol\;cm^{-3}\;d{-1}$) than at the Shiwha wetland ($0.087{\mu}mol\;cm^{-3}\;d{-1}$). The results implied that the water flow system of the Shiwha wetland was too stagnant to flush out the reduced pore water from the sediment, and thus anaerobic microbial respiration was limited by the availability of electron acceptors.
