The purpose of this study was to analyze the soil environment of urban neighborhood parks and to use them as basic data for evaluating the ecological functions of urban parks such as groundwater regeneration, flood control, microclimate regulation, adsorption and purification. The landscape design criteria were generally evaluated as advanced, and further monitoring and studies are needed to evaluate the various ecological functions. It is also necessary to improve the phosphoric acid and nitrogen contents, which tended to be low. In addition, continuous monitoring is needed to assess the proper soil environment according to the biological species, and to evaluate the ecological functions. The results of this study can be used to evaluate the groundwater recharge of urban parks. In particular, when the land of the neighboring park is used for various purposes, the level of access of the user may be increased. Therefore, factors that may adversely affect the user's health, such as heavy metals and organic matters, should be selected and selected as management criteria. In addition, follow-up studies considering fertilization standards suitable for trees and growth of introduced vegetation, etc. are needed urgently to improve the soil environment.

Geotechnical Phenomena such as landslide, groundwater recharge and groundwater fluctuation due to rainfall can be explain to use a dielectric response and infiltration variation by the movement of a wetting front in the subsurface. The infiltration of a wetting front is infiltrating to the connected pores which are distributed in unsaturated soil. In this study we carried out to laboratory experiment of a vertical infiltration column test using ethanol mix-ing tracer which has same the specific gravity of water. All physical values are detected to use a variation of dielectric constant and calculated to use a dielectric mixing model and tracer test model. This dielectric method measured by each dielectric constant of geological soil porous materials should be of for the geotechnical information and useful a field monitoring technique for detecting the variations of the volumetric water content and the wetting front, which are insignificant the key parameter to understanding the landslide by rainfall.

This study was conducted as restoration work to improve the discharge in forested wetlands where there is a concern of damage and observed changes in the discharge and groundwater level. The monthly changes showed that during the wet season, the amount of discharge decreased after restoration and GWL increased. It showed that during the dry season, the GWL and discharge increased. The increased discharge after restoration seems to be the difference in the number of days with no rainfall duration. The change in discharge for each unit of rainfall showed a tendency to increase the baseflow and decrease the direct discharge after restoration. The recharge ratio of GWL showed a decreasing tendency as rainfall was higher. After restoration, it showed a higher tendency under rainfall with less than 20mm. It has been confirmed that the restoration implemented by the study caused such an effect as the increased baseflow and increased GWL. It would be an effective restoration method to maintain water resources in forested wetlands. In the initial rainfall, it demonstrated a certain level of effect, but it is necessary to develop a restoration technology that can decrease the amount of water discharged after the end of rainfall or during the period of no rainfall to protect and maintain the forested wetlands. Streamflow should be identified by each type of terrain of wetlands and a proper restoration countermeasure should be devised for the site where the discharge frequently occurs.

수문순환의 측면에서 지하수는 지속적인 하천의 흐름을 유지하고, 국내 물 이용의 측면에서 가용수량을 만족할 수 있는 취수량을 확보하기가 어려운 중·소규모 하천 유역에서 필요한 농업 및 생활용수 등 각종 용수를 확보할 수 있는 중요한 수원으로써의 역할을 하고 있다. 기존의 수자원 정책은 하천에서의 취수량 확보를 위한 수공 구조물의 설치 및 운영을 통한 용수 확보의 형태로 입안되었으나, 최근 2012~2018 한반도 가뭄 사태로 대표되는 강수 패턴의 변화로 인하여 하천에서의 취수량 부족 사태에 대응하기 위하여 지표수-지하수 연계를 고려한 수원 확보에 대한 정책적·공학적 관심과 요구가 증가하고 있다. 지하수의 효율적 운영과 안정적 관리를 위해서 지하수 이용에 대한 관리도 중요하나, 강수 사상의 발생 시 지하수 함양량을 정량적으로 평가하는 것 또한 매우 중요하다. 지하수 함양량은 강수량이나 하천유량 및 수위 등과 같이 정확한 양을 관측하기 어렵기 때문에 지하수 함양량을 산정하는 방법은 매우 다양하게 제시되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 지하수 함양량 산정 방법 중 비교적 간단한 방식의 지하수위 변동법(Water Table Fluctuation Method, WTF Method)를 이용하여 전국 행정구역 별 지하수 함양량을 분석하였다. 지하수위 변동법의 경우 신뢰도 있는 지하수위 관측 자료의 확보가 매우 중요한 단계이기 때문에 국가지하수관측망 및 농촌지하수 관측망, 해수침투관측망 등 공공기관에서 제공하고 있는 지하수위 관측 자료를 수집하여 적용하였다. 수집된 자료를 바탕으로 지하수 함양량을 산정하고, 최근 국내의 강수패턴의 변화와의 비교 분석을 통해 강수와 지하수 함양 간의 관계를 정량적으로 제시하였다. 본 연구의 연구 결과는 안정적인 지하수 개발 및 관리를 위한 기초적인 정책적 판단 근거로써 제시될 수 있고, 추후 연구에서 지하수위 회복 및 지하수자원 관리 방안 적용에 따른 효과 분석 연구에 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study assessed the hydrogeological characteristics of a seepage area of white leachate. The geological characteristics of the leachate were determined by a surface survey, and an electrical resistivity survey and borehole image processing system (BIPS) were applied to estimate the distribution of discontinuities, to assess the geological structure of the seepage areas. Fluctuations in groundwater level within boreholes were measured during periods of precipitation in the dry and wet seasons. The results show that electrical resistivity is lower in the seepage section than in non-seepage sections. The distribution of fracture zones and limestone cavities was inferred from the logging data and BIPS data. Variations in groundwater level and groundwater recharge, related to rainfall events, show the direct effect of rainfall events during the rainy season. We obtained a strong relationship between seepage amount and rainfall (correlation coefficients of 0.83-0.97).

The DRASTIC system is widely used for assessing regional groundwater pollution susceptibility by using hydrogeological factors such as depth to water, net recharge, aquifer media, soil media, topography, vadose zone media, hydraulic conductivity. This study is providing Modified Drastic Model to which lineament density, land use, influence of groundwater drawdown caused by tunnel excavation are added as additional factors using geographic information system, and then to evaluate groundwater contamination potential of ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ area. For statistical analysis, vector coverage per each factor is converted to grid layer and after each correlation coefficient between factors, covariance, variance, eigenvalue and eigenvector by principal component analysis of 3 direction, are calculated, correlation between factors is analyzed. Also after correlation coefficients between general DRASTIC layer and rated lineament density layer, between general DRASTIC layer and rated land use layer, between general DRASTIC layer and rated tunnel excavation influence layer are calculated, final modified DRASTIC model is constructed by using them with each weighting. When modified DRASTIC model was compared with general DRASTIC model, contamination potential in modified DRASTIC model is fairly detailed and consequently, vulnerable area which has high contamination potential could be presented concretly.

In this study, geochemical composition, CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons), ${\delta}^{18}O$, ${\delta}D$, ${\delta}^{13}C$ isotopes and noble gases isotopes (He, Ne) were analyzed to determine their recharge age, source of $CO_2$ gas and noble gases of carbonated hot spring water and carbonated-water samples collected in the Seoqwipo of the Jeju. The pH of the carbonated waters ranges from 6.21 to 6.84, and the high electrical conductivity range ($1,928{\sim}4,720{\mu}S/cm$). Their chemical composition is classified as $Mg(Ca,\;Na)-HCO_3$ and $Na(Ca,\;Mg)-HCO_3$ types. As a result of the calculation of groundwater age using CFCs concentrations as an environmental tracer, the carbonated water and groundwater were estimated to be about 47.5~57.2 years and about 30.3~49.5 years, respectively. The ${\delta}^{13}C$ values of carbonated water range from -1.77 to -7.27‰, and are plotted on thr deep-seated field or the mixing field of the deep-seated and inorganic origin. Noble gases isotopic ($^3He/^4He$, $^4He/^{20}Ne$) ratio shows that helium gas of carbonated hot waters comes from deep-seated magma origin.

In this study, the algorithm of groundwater flow process was established for koreanized groundwater program development dealing with the geographic and geologic conditions of the aquifer have dynamic behaviour in groundwater flow system. All the input data settings of the 3-DFM model which is developed in this study are organized in Korean, and the model contains help function for each input data. Thus, it is designed to get detailed information about each input parameter when the mouse pointer is placed on the corresponding input parameter. This model also is designed to easily specify the geologic boundary condition for each stratum or initial head data in the work sheet. In addition, this model is designed to display boxes for input parameter writing for each analysis condition so that the setting for each parameter is not so complicated as existing MODFLOW is when steady and unsteady flow analysis are performed as well as the analysis for the characteristics of each stratum. Descriptions for input data are displayed on the right side of the window while the analysis results are displayed on the left side as well as the TXT file for this results is available to see. The model developed in this study is a numerical model using finite differential method, and the applicability of the model was examined by comparing and analyzing observed and simulated groundwater heads computed by the application of real recharge amount and the estimation of parameters. The 3-DFM model is applied in this study to Sehwa-ri, and Songdang-ri area, Jeju, Korea for analysis of groundwater flow system according to pumping, and obtained the results that the observed and computed groundwater head were almost in accordance with each other showing the range of 0.03 - 0.07 error percent. It is analyzed that the groundwater flow distributed evenly from Nopen-orum and Munseogi-orum to Wolang-bong, Yongnuni-orum, and Songja-bong through the computation of equipotentials and velocity vector using the analysis result of simulation which was performed before the pumping started in the study area. These analysis results show the accordance with MODFLOW's.

지하수 함양량을 정확하게 산정하는 것은 지하수계의 적절한 관리를 위해서 매우 중요하다. 국내에서 주로 사용되는 지하수 함양량 추정방법은 지하수위 변동법, 기저유출 분리법, 연단위 물수지 분석법 등이 있다. 그러나, 이들 방법은 집중형 개념을 기반으로 하기 때문에 기후조건, 토지이용, 토양조건, 수리지질학적 비균질성에 의한 함양량의 시공간적 변동성을 구현할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유역의 비균질성을 반영할 수 있는 SWAT 모형을 이용하여 시공간적 변동성을 고려한 지하수 함양량을 산정하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. SWAT 모형은 유역내 일단위 지표면 유출량, 증발산량, 토양저류량, 함양량, 지하수유출량 등의 수문성분을 계산할 수 있는 모형이다. 본 연구에서는 SWAT 모형을 미호천 유역의 최상류인 무심천 유역에 적용하였다. 2001년 - 2004년까지의 기간동안 지하수 함양량을 포함한 유역의 일단위 수문성분들을 모의하였으며, 유역출구점에서의 실측 일유출자료와 모의 일유출자료의 비교를 통해서 모의결과의 유효성을 검토하였다. 지하수 함양량의 시공간적 변화를 분석한 결과, 지하수 함양량의 변동성은 토지이용 변화뿐만 아니라, 유역경사와 같은 지형인자에도 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 분석되었다.

Recently there has been a great deal of interest in promotion of the utilization of rainwater. In this paper, we compared qualities of the rainwater collected from the top of vinyl houses to those of precipitated rainwater itself in Jeju Island. The pH of the collected rainwater was acidic and lower than the precipitated one. As a storm progresses, the pH of the collected water gradually increases. Ranges of EC of the precipitated and collected rainwater were 1-118 and $1-475{\mu}S/cm$. Most of Cl and turbidity values of the collected rainwater were less than 20 mg/L and 20 NTU, while those of the precipitated rainwater were less than 10 mg/L and 5 NTU. Differences in qualities between precipitated and collected rainwater indicate that qualities of the collected rainwater should be changed by the first flush effects, and imply that long term continuous monitoring for the qualities of collected rainwater is essential to quantify the first flush phenomenon more accurately.
