This study was conducted to supplement new-normal strategies on management plans of rural groundwater resources in the era of Post COVID-19. Global outbreak of COVID-19 has damaged across all areas including public policy, economics, industrial services, and others without exception, which has resulted in establishing new-normal strategies in order to restore balance and functions as for these areas. The new-normal ones were represented as enhancing preventative management on infectious diseases, expanding non face-to-face services, enhancing protective trades and food securities, and preparing growth policies on public services using the 4^th industrial revolution techniques. In this study, G-WASH_AD (Groundwater supply, sanitation, and hygiene with attraction and digitization) was suggested to be new-normal strategies on rural groundwater resources. The G-WASH_AD was consisted of three detailed action plans: a preventative plan on waterborne-diseases of groundwater (PP), a groundwater-tourism plan with rural heritage (GP), and an application plan of the 4^th industrial revolution techniques to groundwater facilities and its data (P4). The PP can contribute to protect human health from waterborne-diseases and minimize hazardous effects on crop cultivation. The GP accompanied with high-quality groundwater resources is able to strengthen rural tourism, to promote marketing activities on local agricultural products, and to increase household incomes of rural communities. The P4 can reinforce fast, comfortable, and scientific management on groundwater facilities and its data, creating a virtuous cycle between innovative management on groundwater and growth of technology related to it. Results of the G-WASH_AD strategies can encourage a green growth engine in field of rural groundwater management keeping up with Post COVID-19.

The Kurobe river, which runs through eastern Toyama Prefecture is one of the most famous rivers for wild water because of its steep slope in the range from 1/5 to 1/120. This river forms an alluvial fan in the range up to 13 kilometers from the sea. In this region, significant seepage flow occurs and thus the stream sometimes been intermitted. Moreover, the amount of seepage flow seems to vary with the groundwater level of the region. To keep the river environment healthy for flora and fauna, especially to conserve good condition for spawning of fishes, an appropriate environmental flow should be maintained in the river. To achieve this target, controlling of the upstream reservoir has to be studied in depth. One of the major problems to decide the amount of water to be released from the reservoir to maintain the environmental flow is to estimate the amount of water leaked into the groundwater from the river. This phenomenon is affected by the river flow rate as well as the groundwater level in the alluvial fan and the conditions vary in space and time. Thus, a grid-based hydrological cycle analysis model NK-GHM has been applied to clarify the hydrological cycle componentsin this area including seepage/discharge from/to the river. The model was tested by comparing with river flow rate, groundwater levels and other observations and found that the model described those observations well. Consequently, the seepage from the Kurobe river was found significant but it was also found that the groundwater in this region has been preserved by the recharge from the irrigation water supply into paddy fields in the alluvial fan.

Many small island nations rely on groundwater as their only other source of freshwater in addition to rainwater harvesting. The volume of groundwater resource of small island nations are further limited by their smaller surface area and specific hydrogeology. The rapid growth of population and tourism has led to increasing water demands and pollution of available groundwater resources. The predicted climate change effects pose significant threats to the already vulnerable freshwater lens of small islands in the form of rise in sea level, coastal inundation, saltwater intrusion, varied pattern of precipitation leading to droughts and storm surges. The effects of climate change are further aggravated by manmade stresses like increased pumping. Thus small island water resources are highly threatened under the effects of climate change. But due to the limited technical and financial capacity most of the small island developing states were unable to conduct detailed technical investigations on the effects of climate change on their water resources. In this study, we investigate how well small island countries are preparing for climate change. The current state of freshwater resources, impacts of predicted climate change along with adaptation and management strategies planned and implemented by small island countries are reviewed. Proper assessment and management practices can aid in sustaining the groundwater resources of small islands under climate change.

중국과 북유럽의 운하는 건설당시 시대상과 자연환경이 우리나라와 다음과 같은 점에서 매우 다르다. 우리나라 하천은 하상계수가 크고 중상류 하천들은 구배가 커서 주변지역으로부터 역과 토사가 하상에 유입·퇴적되어 유로를 변경하거나 수심을 낮게 한다. 이는 지속적인 준설작업을 필요로 하며 보와 갑문의 설치는 홍수 때 유수의 흐름을 지체시켜 범람의 원인이 되기도 한다. 그리고 지하수면의 상승 또는 하강으로 기존도시의 시설에 치명적일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 수질 악화와 홍수시 수위상승을 유발하여 홍수 유발의 원인이 된다. 준설작업은 생태계 파괴를 초래하고 운하의 경제성 여부와 육상교통에 비하여 상대적으로 낮은 속도 문제, 운송비 절감과 이적(移積)비용과 종착지 비용 문제, 관광·레저 산업의 활성화와 과도한 개발비용 등의 문제가 있다. 운하가 아닌 단순한 관리와 정비 사업은 순차적으로 계획을 세워 추진하는 것이 보다 타당하다.

제주도는 독특한 경관과 자연·인문환경을 관광자원으로 하는 우리나라 제1의 관광지이다. 지금까지는 각종 관광시설들이 해안지역을 중심으로 발달되어 왔으나, 근래에 이르러서는 해안지역의 도시가격의 상승, 관광객의 다양한 관광활동 요구 등으로 인하여 표고 200∼600m의 중산간지역에 대한 개발압력이 가중되고 있다. 그러나 중산간지역은 토양과 지질구조가 지하수 오염에 매우 취약하며, 제주도의 생태계를 유지시키는 완충지대의 역할을 하고 있고, 제주도의 대표적인 경관지역이기 때문에 환경보전적 토지이용이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 이 연구는 일차적으로 제주도 전역에 대한 각종 조사를 시행하고 그 결과를 GIS로 구축하였다. 여기에는 자연·인문·지하수·경관 등에 걸쳐 15개 항목에 대한 조사가 이루어졌으며, 42개 주 제도가 구축되었다. 두 번째 단계에서는 구축된 GIS를 이용하여 지하수, 생태계, 경관보전을 위한 토지이용계획을 수립하고 이에 따른 관리방안이 제시되었다. 이러한 환경보전적 토지이용계획은 장래 중산간지역의 난개발을 미연에 방지하고 환경에 부담을 주지 않으면서 개발을 유도 할 수 있을 것이다.

Jeju island has an area of $1,810km^2$ and is considered the largest island in South Korea. In Jeju Island the average annual precipitation is 1,957mm. About 54% of precipitation is estimated to be lost due to evapo-transpiration and direct runoff, and the remainder is recharged. Historically springs and puddles were the island's primary sources of water. However, after 1970 all sectors, including the urban and industrial sectors depended solely on groundwater as their water resource. As vast amount of water is being recharged the Island has many springs, especially near the coastlines. Historlcally, spring of Jeju Island formed village and make it possible to continue a life. Also it produces many values such as the spring related story, culture, tourism and ecosystems. Especially, the naturally rare phenomenon that about 900 springs appear over the whole area of Jeju Island makes it possible to call it as a natural heritage. As a result of this most springs have either been destroyed or been in the state of neglect. In some cases it has been observed that springs were preserved by nature, however majority of the cases saw springs losing their own nature as a result of abandonment. It was recorded that there were 911 springs in Jeju Island with most of them being distributed along the coast, which consequently increases their susceptibility to seawater intrusion. The objective of this study is therefore to analyze Eco-cultural and Engineering characteristics about springs in the island, highlighting its past utilization and reestablishing its potential as a source of spring.
