  • The purpose of this paper is to analyze the factors, which have influence upon changes of hydrological environment in time series, and evaluate water balance changes caused by urbanization. The results of the analysis and evaluation are as follow: At first, the river runoff at Gwangju River Basin keep base flow of river by storage capacity recharged in June to September and show peak in August and minimum flow in May. The groundwater recharge by urbanization accounted for 46.1% of rainfall at early-urban stage, and decreased to 36.5% and 29.9% in the 1960's and the 1990's respectively, and is likely to decrease to 27.8% in the 2010's. On the other hand, the overland flow was 9.6% of rainfall in the 1960's and 16.2% in the 1990's, and is likely to increase to 18.3% in the 2010's. When such a phenomenon is kept continuously, distorted water balance shall be worsened to create not only frequent occurrence of urban flood but also decreased base flow of Gwangju River to accelerate dry stream phenomenon. The time series study on urban redevelopment and environment maintenance describes distorted phenomenon to supply the information for nature-friendly land use, and examines relations between human activities and natural environment.

  • The study is aimed to find out the causes of rapidly increasing chloride (Cl$^{-}$) concentration of the Samyang 3rd pumping station originated from coastal springs of Cheju since January 1996. The study results show that it was caused by following complicated natural and anthropogenic effects. Due to severe draught in 1996 with total rainfall of only 41.7% of annual mean of the last 36 years (1991 to 1995), it creates firstly), significant decrease of the spring discharges as well decline of the groundwater level at the site . Sea water level was in general 4.4 cm to 12.4 cm higher than the groundwater level of the site during 2 to 3.8 hours at each high tide. Those higher potential head of sea water motivates the sea water intrusion into the fresh water lens through the permeable clinkers and fracture zones situated beneath the existing grouted zone which was installed to a maximum 10 m below the ground water surface, The repeated expansion and contraction of the fresh water lens occurred by periodic changes of the sea water level at high and low tide accelerates secondly the enlargement of the transition zone between the fresh and sea water at the site. The decrease of recharge amount by rainfall shortage creates thirdly the reverse flow at the interface of sea water and groundwater. The repeated groundwater extraction of 2790${\pm}$450 $m^3$d$^{-1}$ at the time of low tide, when the fresh water lens of the sire is under the contraction stare, makes additional drawdown of the ground water level and induces the upconing of salt water into the fresh water lens. The duration of spring discharge whose Cl concentration is less than 150 mg/1 at the low tide measured at the nearby springs was about two hours with discharge rate of 532 $m^3$d$^{-1}$ and after that Cl$^{-}$ concentration is increased up to more than 1900 mg/ι.eased up to more than 1900 mg/L.

  • For various kinds of waters including surface water, shallow groundwater (<70 m deep) and deep groundwater (500∼810 m deep) from the Pungki area, an integrated study based on hydrochemical, multivariate statistical, thermodynamic, environmental isotopic (tritium, oxygen-hydrogen, carbon and sulfur), and mass-balance approaches was attempted to elucidate the hydrogeochemical and hydrologic characteristics of the groundwater system in the gneiss area. Shallow groundwaters are typified as the 'Ca-HCO$_3$'type with higher concentrations of Ca, Mg, SO$_4$and NO$_3$, whereas deep groundwaters are the 'Na-HCO$_3$'type with elevated concentrations of Na, Ba, Li, H$_2$S, F and Cl and are supersaturated with respect to calcite. The waters in the area are largely classified into two groups: 1) surface waters and most of shallow groundwaters, and 2) deep groundwaters and one sample of shallow groundwater. Seasonal compositional variations are recognized for the former. Multivariate statistical analysis indicates that three factors may explain about 86% of the compositional variations observed in deep groundwaters. These are: 1) plagioclase dissolution and calcite precipitation, 2) sulfate reduction, and 3) acid hydrolysis of hydroxyl-bearing minerals(mainly mica). By combining with results of thermodynamic calculation, four appropriate models of water/ rock interaction, each showing the dissolution of plagioclase, kaolinite and micas and the precipitation of calcite, illite, laumontite, chlorite and smectite, are proposed by mass balance modelling in order to explain the water quality of deep groundwaters. Oxygen-hydrogen isotope data indicate that deep groundwaters were originated from a local meteoric water recharged from distant, topograpically high mountainous region and underwent larger degrees of water/rock interaction during the regional deep circulation, whereas the shallow groundwaters were recharged from nearby, topograpically low region. Tritium data show that the recharge time was the pre-thermonuclear age for deep groundwaters (<0.2 TU) but the post-thermonuclear age for shallow groundwaters (5.66∼7.79 TU). The $\delta$$\^$34/S values of dissolved sulfate indicate that high amounts of dissolved H$_2$S (up to 3.9 mg/1), a characteristic of deep groundwaters in this area, might be derived from the reduction of sulfate. The $\delta$$\^$13/C values of dissolved carbonates are controlled by not only the dissolution of carbonate minerals by dissolved soil CO$_2$(for shallow groundwaters) but also the reprecipitation of calcite (for deep groundwaters). An integrated model of the origin, flow and chemical evolution for the groundwaters in this area is proposed in this study.

  • The objective of this study is to evaluate the future potential climate and vegetation canopy change impact on a dam watershed hydrology. A $6,661.5\;km^2$ dam watershed, the part of Han-river basin which has the watershed outlet at Chungju dam was selected. The SWAT model was calibrated and verified using 9 year and another 7 year daily dam inflow data. The Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency ranged from 0.43 to 0.91. The Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis (CCCma) Coupled Global Climate Model3 (CGCM3) data based on Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) SRES (Special Report Emission Scenarios) B1 scenario was adopted for future climate condition and the data were downscaled by artificial neural network method. The future vegetation canopy condition was predicted by using nonlinear regression between monthly LAI (Leaf Area Index) of each land cover from MODIS satellite image and monthly mean temperature was accomplished. The future watershed mean temperatures of 2100 increased by $2.0^{\circ}C$, and the precipitation increased by 20.4 % based on 2001 data. The vegetation canopy prediction results showed that the 2100 year LAI of deciduous, evergreen and mixed on April increased 57.1 %, 15.5 %, and 62.5% respectively. The 2100 evapotranspiration, dam inflow, soil moisture content and groundwater recharge increased 10.2 %, 38.1 %, 16.6 %, and 118.9 % respectively. The consideration of future vegetation canopy affected up to 3.0%, 1.3%, 4.2%, and 3.6% respectively for each component.

  • For the establishment of effective water resources management platform for Jeju-Island, the characteristics, including surface runoff, evapotranspiration, groundwater recharge and discharge are to be properly quantified. Among these hydrologic components, interception due to vegetation is very important factor but it is hard to be quantified. After Von Hoyningen-Huene (1981) found the relationship between LAI (Leaf Area Index) and interception storage, LAI has been used for key factor to estimate interception and transpiration. In this study the equation suggested by Kozak et al. (2007) is implemented in SWAT-K (Soil and Water Assessment Tool - Korea) model and is tested at the Cheonmicheon watershed in Jeju-Island. The evaporation due to interception was estimated as 85~104mm, 8~11% of whole evaporation. Therefore it is necessary to consider the evaporation due to interception as a controlling factor to water budget of this watershed.

  • The permeation movements of groundwater recharge and contaminate materials receive a eat effect due to porosity and effective porosity of porous media which is composing underground consisted of saturation and unsaturated states. This study developed Frequency Domain Reflectometry(FDR) system and measurement sensor, and then carried out the laboratory experiments to measure effective porosity for unsaturated porous media. Also, I suggested dielectric mixing models(DMMs) which can calculate the effective porosity from relation of measured dielectric constants. In the experimental results the extent range of effective porosity of standard sand and river sand which are unsaturated soil sample were measured in about 65∼85 % for porosity. In relation of effective porosity and porosity, especially, effective porosity confirmed that displays decreasing a little tendency as porosity increases. This is because unsaturated soil did not reach in saturation enough by air of very small amount that exist in pore between soil particles.

  • 국제사회의 분위기와 더불어 국내에서도 에너지 자원의 지속적인 개발과 이용에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 그 중 수자원의 지속적인 확보와 개발은 가장 현실적이고 우선적인 문제로 인식되고 있으며 수자원확보/환경/개발 및 이용 등의 여러 분야에서 그간의 정량적 성과가 하나 둘씩 도출되어 적용 단계에 이르기도 하였다. 하지만 지하수의 경우 기초자료의 미흡과 불확실성, 함양량 및 개발가능량에 대한 산정기법의 적용성 문제, 체계화된 개발 및 이용에 대한 인식이 부족한 실정이다. 특히, 도시지역의 경우는 인구의 증가로 인하여 지하수이용량이 급격하게 증가하고 잠재적 지하수오염 가능성이 높아져 지하수환경의 악화를 초래하고 이로 인하여 하천 환경에도 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문에 지하수개발가능량의 평가 및 체계적인 이용과 관리가 반드시 필요하나 지하수함양에 결정적인 영향을 미치는 토지피복상태가 지속적으로 변화하여 지하수함양량에도 매년 변화가 있으며 이에 따라 개발가능량도 변하고 있어 지하수 개발과 관리 및 이용에 많은 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 부산광역시 수영구 일대를 대상으로 도시화 현상으로 변화하는 토지피복상태를 분석하고 그 결과를 반영하여 1961년부터 2007년까지의 지하수함양량 및 함양률을 산정하였다. 연구대상지역의 토지피복상태는 1975년 이전까지는 시가화지역이 18.6%, 농업지역이 30.0%, 산림이 48.8%, 초지가 0.1%, 나지가 2.0%, 수역이 0.5%를 차지하고 있었으나 1980년${\sim}$1985년에 농업지역이 18.3% 감소하고 시가화지역이 15.0% 증가하는 큰 변화가 나타났으며 1995년${\sim}$2000년에도 농업지역이 5.5% 감소하고 시가화지역이 5.4% 증가하는 변화를 나타냈다. 전 연도에 걸쳐 산림지역과 초지, 나지, 수역에서의 변화는 크지 않았다. 연구대상지역의 평균 강우량은 1509.3mm이고 지하수평균함양량은 216.0mm이며 지하수평균함양률은 14.3%로 나타났다. 연최대함양량은 강우량이 2138.1mm인 1970년에 408.9mm이며 연최대함양률은 강우량이 1492.6mm인 1984년에 19.8%이다. 연최소함양량은 강우량이 901.5mm인 1988년에 71.9mm이며 연최소함양률은 같은해에 8.0%로 나타났다. 또한 연도의 증가에 따라 강우량은 증가하였으나 지하수함양량은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다.

  • Low impact development (LID) technique is relatively new concept to reduce surface runoff and pollutant loading from land cover by attempting to match predevelopment condition with various integrated management practices (IMPs). In this study, computational model for designing and evaluating LID, named LIDMOD, was developed based on SCS-CN method and applied at Andong bus terminal to evaluate LID applicapability and design retention/detention area for volume or peak flow control. LIDMOD simulated with 21 years simulation period that yearly surface runoff by post-development without LID was significantly higher than that with LID showing about 2.8 times and LID could reduce efficiently yearly surface runoff with 75% reduction of increased runoff by conventional post development. LIDMOD designed detention area for volume/peak flow control with 20.2% of total area by hybrid design. LID can also efficiently reduce pollutant load from land cover. Pollutant loads from post-development without LID was much higher than those from pre-development with showing 37 times for BOD, 2 times for TN, and 9 times for TP. Pollutant loads from post-development with LID represented about 57% of those without LID. Increasing groundwater recharge reducing cooling and heating fee, creating green refuge at building area can be considered as additional benefits of LID. At the point of reducing runoff and pollutant load, LID might be important technique for Korean TMDL and LIDMOD can be useful tool to calculate unit load for the case of LID application.

  • 수자원의 공급적인 측면에서 내륙지역에 비하여 불리한 도서지역은 단기간의 가뭄에도 생활용수가 고갈되어 매년 상습적인 식수난을 겪고 있는 상태이다. 전국 3,170개 섬 중 491개 유인도에 831,295명(2003년)이 거주하고 있으나 상수도 보급률은 28.7%에 불과하다(환경부, 2005). 나머지 71.3%의 도서지역 주민들은 간이 급수시설, 우물, 지붕수 등을 생활용수로 이용하고 있다. 이와같이 도서지역은 상수도 보급율이 열악하여 지하수자원에 대한 의존도가 내륙지역에 비하여 높아 지하수자원을 통해 부족한 용수를 공급받아야 할 실정이다. 용수공급을 위한 지하수의 개발을 위해서 무엇보다 선행되어야 할 것은 도서지역의 지하수개발가능량 평가이며 이의 평가를 위해서는 지하수함양량의 파악이 이루어져야 한다. 지하수함양량 산정 기법 중 하나인 NRCS-CN방법은 선행강우조건, 토지피복상태, 수문학적 토양군 등의 인자들에 의해 산정되어진다. 수문학적 토양군의 경우 대부분의 연구에서 정정화 등 (1995)에 의해 분류된 자료가 이용되고 있었으나 최근 정광호 등(2007)에 의하여 수문학적 토양군이 재분류 되었다. 본 연구에서는 NRCS-CN방법을 이용하여 식수난에 어려움을 겪고 있는 우리나라 서남해안의 14개 도서지역에 대하여 수문학적 토양군의 1995년 분류와 2007년 분류를 적용하여 지하수함양량을 산정하고 비교하였다. 1995년 분류와 2007년 분류에서 지하수함양량과 함양률은 개도, 생일도, 보길도를 제외한 도서지역은 1%미만의 차이로 변화가 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 개도, 생일도, 보길도는 1995년 분류에 비하여 2007년 분류에서 $2.2%{\sim}2.8%$ 감소하였다. 따라서 대상지역의 수문학적토양군의 재분류에 의한 지하수함양량 및 함양률의 차이가 미미함을 알 수 있었다. 연평균 함양량은 1995년 분류와 2007년 분류에서 수도가 590.8mm, 583.5mm로 최대값을 가지며 가파도가 270.2mm, 270.5mm로 최소값을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 함양률의 경우 1995년 분류에서는 개도가 29.8%의 최대값을 나타내었고 가파도가 23.3%의 최소값을 가지는 것으로 나타났으며 2007년 분류에서는 사량도 상도가 28.5%의 최대값을 나타내었고 가파도가 23.3%의 최소값으로나타났다.

  • Riverbank filtration is a kind of artificial aquifer recharge for the fresh water supply. By construction of several production wells penetrating the riverbank, surface water withdrawn from the river would pass riverbed. This extracted water is well known to be cooler than surface water in summer and warmer than surface water in winter, showing more constant water temperature. This characteristic of extracted water is applied to geothermal energy utilization. Prediction of the annual temperature variation of filtrated water is the major concern in this study. In Daesan-myeon, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea, riverbank filtration facility has been on its operation for municipal water supply and thermal energy utilization since 2006. Appropriate hydraulic and thermal properties were estimated for flow and heat transfer modeling with given pumping rate and location. With the calibrated material properties and boundary conditions, we numerically reproduced measured head and temperature variation with acceptable error range. In the numerical simulation, the change of saturation ratio and river stage caused by rainfall was calculated and the resulting variation of thermal capacity and thermal conductivity was considered. Simulated temperature profiles can be used to assess the possible efficiency of geothermal energy utilization using riverbank filtration facility. Influence of pumping rate, pumping location on the extracted water temperature will be studied.
