  • Recently, we reported that Jeju ground water contains vanadium components and exerts antioxidant effects in vitro and in vivo via the scavenging of reactive oxygen species and enhancement of antioxidant enzyme activities. In the present study, the antioxidant actions of Jeju ground water were compared with those of tap water against gamma-ray radiation in mice. C57BL/6 mice were irradiated with gamma-ray at a dose rate of 2 Gy. The mice were then given tap water or Jeju ground water for 90 days. Jeju ground water compared with tap water enhanced the activities and levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase in irradiated liver tissues. Jeju ground water also enhanced the levels of intracellular reduced glutathione, which is vital for normal liver function and repair. These results suggest that vanadium-containing Jeju ground water can safeguard against the harmful actions of gamma-ray radiation through the support of hepatic antioxidant processes.

  • Epidemiologic investigation was conducted on January, 1993 in Seoul to identify the cause of an infant methemoglobinemia. Field investigation of the area of outbreak, survey of household and family members, analysis of ground water, and blood tests of involved family members were performed. Following results were obtained On analyzing the quality of the ground water on patient's household high levels of nitrate was found indicating contamination of water as the cause of a methemoglobinemia outbreak. On analysing the quality of the ground waters on seven other places within the neighborhood five were contaminated by nitrate in concentration that exceeded the permissible limit implying presence nearby source of contamination. Sources of contamination were thought to be originating from human waste in conventional bathroom facilities, chicken manure used in nearby orchards and plant fields or fertilizers. But the results of water analysis with presence of bacteria or E.coli, concentration of potassium, phosphate and the past history of diarrhea among family members, chicken manure suggested the most possible source of contamination. To evaluate the health status of members in the neighborhood past history was reviewed revealing no prior existence of patient with cyanosis and 65 people in the neighborhood had normal levels of methemoglobin concentration in their blood. Conclusively, the ground water on patient's household was contaminated with nitrate and despite provision of adequate water supply, family members of the patient along with their distrust in the water supply system had used ground water as their source of drinking water resulting of methemoglobinemia. Many suburban area of Seoul and country side thought to be having similar problems concerning contaminated ground water supply and dormant outbreak of patients as a result of the drinking of the contaminated water. Epidemiologic investigation and water analysis of ground waters are advised.

  • The purpose of this thesis is to search for the determination method of pumping rates in the existing tube wells for irrigation. Pumping tests were carried out for the twelve test tube wells which were selected in the provinces of Kyounggi, Kangwon, Chungbuk and Chungnam. The depths, static water levels, pumping levels, drawdowns and yields of tube wells were measured in the pumping tests, and a centrifugal pump with 3 inches diameter, a 5 HP motor and a 90$^{\circ}$ V-notch were used in the pumping tests. The average coefficient of transmissibility calculated by Chow's and Jacob's methods is 0.0336 square meter per second, and the average pumping rate calculated by Thiem's, Smreker's, Brinkhaus' and Theis' formulae, is 919 cubic meter per day, Therefore, the ground water storage in the test areas is comparatively abundant. Correlation between pumping rates and depths of tube wells is not in existence. Also, correlation between pumping rates and the thickness of aquifer is not found in this experiment. This shows that the depths of some tube wells are deep and their thicknesses of aquifer are thick, but their ground water storages are poor, and that the depths of some tube wells are shallow and their thicknesses of aquifer are thin, but their ground water storages are abundant. It seems that the test tube wells are influenced by the peculiar characteristics that the ground water in the test areas is free ground water in alluvium layer closely related with surface water. As drawdown increases, pumping rate decreases, and as the coefficient of transmissibility increases, pumping rate also increases. Namely, there are negative correlation between pumping rate and drawdown, and positive correlation between pumping rate and the coefficient of transmissibility. Judging from the results of the pumping tests in these tests areas, the pumping rate calculated by the formula, {{{{ { Q}_{m } =Q { ( { { S}_{ m} } over { TRIANGLE S } )}^{ { 2} over {3 } } }}}} used traditionally, is likely to be higher than real pumping rates. The formula, {{{{ { Q}_{m } =Q { { H}^{ 2} } over { (2H- TRIANGLE S) TRIANGLE S} }}}} derived from Thiem's theory, is looked upon as the reasonable one to detemine pumping rates in the existing tube wells for irrigation.

  • 해안을 통하여 유출되는 지하수량은 하천 유출량에 비하여 상대적으로 크기는 작으나 해안 지역의 지하수자원의 개발과 연안의 오염과 관련하여 중요성을 가진다. 선행 연구에서는 관측정 수위, 투수계수 등의 간단한 자료만을 가지고 지하수의 해안 유출량을 평가하는 방법을 제시하였다 본 연구에서는 남해안과 서해안과 같이 해안선의 형태가 복잡한 경우에 평균동수경사, 해안선의 폭과 담수층의 평균 두께를 산정하는 방법을 제시하여 지하수 해안유출량 평가의 정확도를 높이는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 평가 방법은 경계면모델을 이용한 수치해와 비교하여 평가되었다. 해안선의 복잡성을 고려하지 않은 Darcy의 법칙의 적용에 비하여 정확도가 대폭 개선되었다.

  • Ground water samples were collected from residential, green" industrial, landfill and mining area and analyzed for 23 inorganics from March to October in 2002. The results are as follows; 1. The detection frequencies of inorganic materials such as As, Ba, B, Mo, Ca, Mg, Al, Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, Na, K were 7.2∼77.1% which showed that these inorganics were detected in many ground waters. 2. The detection frequencies of 7 inorganics(Cd, Cr, Ph, Se, Sb, Be, Tl) were commonly low at ranging from 0.42 to 2.5%. These inorganics were contained in ground water partially. 3. Three inorganics such as Hg, Ni, Ag were not detected in any ground-water samples. 4. Compared to the other areas, ground water samples from landfill area contained greater concentration in many inorgainics and then showed higher levels in industral, residential, mining and green area in order. 5. Compared to noted concentrations of bottled water, inorganic minerals including Ca, Mg, Na, K related to taste were fluent in target samples. The results showed that the average concentrations of Mg, Na, K were 4.0 mg/l, 14.7 mg/l, 1.5 mg/l respectively. 6. The concentrations of inorganics such as Sb, Ba, Mo, Be, Tl, K in some ground water samples exceeded the water quality standards of WHO, the US and UK. Especially, Ba, Mo, K also showed relatively high detection frequencies so these inorganics need to be considered as analytes in Korea Drinking Water Regulation in further study.

  • 도시지역에 시공되는 지하차도 구조물은 지리적 특성상 지하수위의 영향을 받기 쉽다. 그러나 지하차도 구조물 설계 시에는 일괄적인 지하수위를 적용하여 설계를 수행하는 경우가 많으며 이는 과소 또는 과다 설계를 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 보다 신뢰도 높은 지하수위 예측을 통해 지하차도 구조물의 합리적인 부력설계 방향을 제시하고자한다. 특히, 최근 친환경적인 개발 개념인 LID 기법을 도입한 투수 포장 적용에 따른 물순환 특성 변화가 지하차도 구조물에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대해 검토하였다. 이를 위해 개발 전, 개발 후, 투수포장 적용에 의한 지표면 불투수 특성 변화가 침투량 및 지하수위 변화에 미치는 영향 분석과 지하차도 안정성을 검토하는 일련의 수치해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과 지표면의 변화가 지하수위 변화를 유발하고 지하 구조물 안정성에 영향을 줄 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 지하차도 및 지하구조물의 최적 설계를 위해서는 지표면 유출 특성을 고려한 적절한 지하수위 예측 및 적용이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

  • Remote sensing has been widely used in the exploration of groundwater. In this paper, on the establishment of empirical function between ground water and soil moisture content 6S code is used to reduce uncertainties in the remote sensing of groundwater. Then ground water levels are calculated using 6S corrected and uncorrected ETM+ image along with isochronous meteorological information. Greater correspondence between field examined and satellite monitoring data is obtained from corrected image than from the uncorrected image.
