Most countries worldwide are finding it difficult to make decisions regarding the utilization of water resources and the ecological flow protection of rivers because of serious water shortages and global climate warming. To overcome this difficulty, accurate ecological flow processes and protected ecological objectives are required. Since the introduction of the concept, ecological flow calculations have been developed for more than 60 years. This technical development has always been dominated by countries such as the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The technical applications, however, vary substantially worldwide. Some countries, for instance, did not readjust the method because of a lack of understanding of the ecological effect or because they failed to achieve elaborate scheduling. Mostly, readjustments were not made because the users could not make their choices from among numerous methods for ecological flow. This paper presents three research results based on a systematic review of 240 methods with clear connotation boundaries. First, the ecological flow algorithm was developed along with the scientific and technological progress in the river ecosystem theory, ecohydrological relationship, and characterization and simulation of hydrological and hydrodynamic processes. In addition, the basis of the method has evolved from the hydrological process of the ecosystem, hydraulics-habitat conditions, and social development interference to whole ecosystem simulation. Second, 240 methods were classified into 50 sub-categories to evaluate their advantages and disadvantages according to the ecological flow algorithms of hydrology, hydraulics, habitat, and other comprehensive methods. According to this evaluation, 60% of the methods were not suitable for further application, including the method based on the percentage of natural runoff. Furthermore, the applicability of the remaining methods was presented according to the evaluation based on the aspects of allocation of water resources, water conservancy project scheduling, and river ecological evaluation. Third, In the future, most developing countries should strengthen the guarantee of high-standard ecological flow via a coordination mechanism for the ecological flow guarantee established under a sustainable framework or via an ecological protection pattern at the national level according to the national system. Concurrently, a reliable ecological flow demand process should also be established on the basis of detailed investigation and research on the relationship between river habitats, ecological hydrology, and ecological hydraulics. This will ensure that the real-time evaluation of ecological flow forces the water conservancy project scheduling and accurate allocation of water.

The purpose of the present study is to estimate the ecological instream flow for conservation and restoration of fish habitat in running water ecosystem which has very important status for stream environment. Estimation of the ecological instream flow in the present study was carried out by application of a two-dimensional depth averaged model of river hydrodynamics, River2D model. It can model fish habitat in natural streams and rivers and assess the quality of physical habitat accoriding to the species preferences for habitat suitability. Zacco platypus and Zacco temmincki were selected as target fish species in the study area of the Seomjin river. The Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) developed by Sung et al. (2005) were used for target fish species, life stages and habitat conditions in the study. Weighted usable area (WUA) was computed by the River2D model considering preferences of target fish species for velocity, depth, and channel substrate. The result revealed that the ecological instream flow of $10.0m^3/s$ is needed to maintain the target fish habitat at each life stage in the river.

본 연구에서는 확률밀도함수의 서식처 적합도 지수를 사용하여 도심하천구간과 자연하천구간에서 유량점증방법론(Instream flow Incremental Methodology, IFIM)을 토대로 피라미 서식처의 생태유량을 모의하였다. 이와 같은 방법을 적용하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 PHABSIM 모형을 사용하였다. 본 연구에서는 서식처 적합도 지수(Kang, 2010)를 기초로 확률밀도함수의 매개변수를 조정하여 확률밀도함수의 서식처 적합도 지수를 개발하여 생태유량을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 도심하천구간에서는 정규분포가 자연하천구간에서는 2변수 log-pearson 분포가 Kang (2010)의 생태유량에 가장 근접하는 경향을 보였다. 확률밀도함수에 의한 서식처 적합도 지수와 하천구간별로 생태유량을 모의하여 확률론적 방법을 적용한 생태유량 산정기법을 제안하였다.

The objective of this study was to estimate an optimum ecological flow rate in the Banbyeon stream based on the two representative fish species. Hydraulic stream environment was simulated with HEC-RAS for two water flow regimes and used for the PHABSIM hydraulic simulation. A dominant species of Zacco platypus and an endemic species of Squalidus chankaensis tsuchigae were selected as the representative fishes whose habitat conditions were evaluated for the spawning and adult stages. Weighted usable area (WUA) was estimated based on habitat suitability index (HSI) and PHABSIM habitat simulation. Overall deep water zone in the stream demonstrated greater WUA which implies better habitat status. The estimated WUA for Zacco platypus as the dominant species was about five times greater than Squalidus chankaensis tsuchigae at the stream flow of 12 ㎥/s. The optimum ecological flow rates were 15 ㎥/s and 25 ㎥/s for the respective spawning and adult stages of Zacco platypus, while 5 ㎥/s was estimated for both the life cycles of Squalidus chankaensis tsuchigae. Assuming that the dominant species may survive better in wider flow regimes, the optimum ecological flow rate should be determined rater based on the endemic species and flow rate of 5 ㎥/s was suggested for the Banbyeon stream.

Natural hydrology systems, including high flow and low flow events, are important for aquatic ecosystem health and are essential for controlling the structure and function of ecological processes in river ecosystems. Ecosystem responses to flow changes have been studied in a variety of ways, but little attention has been given to how episodic typhoons and atmospheric circulation patterns can change these hydrologic regime-ecological response relationships. In this diagnostic study, we use an empirical approach to investigate the salient features of interactions between atmospheric circulation, climate, and runoff in the five major Korean river basins.

본 연구는 용담댐 직하류 하천정비가 시행되고 있는 구간에서 하도특성과 어류 서식처를 고려하여 생태학적 유지유량을 정량적으로 산정하였다. 댐 건설 전과 후의 하도특성 변화에서 1988년부터 2004년까지 최심하상고 및 하폭의 변동이 거의 없이 안정적이었지만, 하상토 입경은 2004년에 조금 가늘어지고 있다. 어류를 조사한 결과, 칼납자루 등 4과 11종이 채집되었다. 그 중에서 잉어과 참갈겨니가 우점하였고, 쉬리가 아우점하였다. PHABSIM모형을 이용하여 하도특성을 고려한 서식처 적합도(HSC) 지수를 모의한 결과, 감동지구와 대티지구에서 참갈겨니의 최적유량은 $13.90\sim12.60\;m^3\;s^{-1}$범위이며, 쉬리의 최적유량은 $15.50\sim11.60\;m^3\;s^{-1}$범위이었다. 부남지구에서, 참갈겨니의 최적유량은 $7.00\;m^3\;s^{-1}$이며, 쉬리의 최적유량은 $7.00\;m^3\;s^{-1}$이었으며, 용담 유황자료와 비교한 결과 평수량과 풍수량 사이에 해당하는 유량이었다.

정확한 하천유량은 하천이 지니고 있는 이수, 치수 및 생태기능이 원활이 유지되기 위해서 가장 중요한 항목이다. 특히 하천의 생태기능은 하천의 환경개선에 있어 매우 중요한 기능이다. 하천의 생태유량에 있어서 하천에 서식하는 생물 및 하천지형에 대한 정확한 정보는 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 유역 및 하천의 지형공간자료를 활용하여 시범적으로 하천의 생태유량을 산정하였다. 하천의 환경복원에 있어서 지형공간자료는 매우 중요한 기초자료로 활용된다.

This study assessed the subsurface runoff and peak flow reduction in rain gardens. The results showed that the highest water retention was found in rain garden mesocosms in which Rhododendron lateritium and Zoysia japonica were planted, followed by mesocosms in which either R. lateritium or Z. japonica was planted, and the lowest water retention rate was found in non-vegetated control treatment mesocosms(${\alpha}$ < 0.05). Although higher rainfall intensity caused a decrease of peak flow reduction in both vegetated and non-vegetated treatments, peak flow reduction was the greatest in mesocosms with mixed plants. A rain garden can be an effective tool for environment-friendly stormwater management and improving ecological functions in urban areas. Depending on the purpose such as delaying runoff or increasing infiltration, various plant types should be considered for rain garden designing.

Comprehensive utilization of tungsten tailings resources not only solves environmental problems but also creates huge economic benefits. The high content of iron impurity in tungsten tailings will have adverse effect on the downstream comprehensive utilization, whether flotation or pickling. In this paper, the Superconducting High Gradient Magnetic Separation(S-HGMS) is used to remove of Fe impurities from tungsten tailings. The optimal experimental parameters are as follows: background magnetic induction intensity is 3.0T, slurry flow velocity is 500ml/min. The Fe removal rate of Fe was 68.8% and the recovery rate was 59.53%.
