An attempt was made to study on the conceptions of instream flow for maintaining a normal funtion of the rivers. Therefore, Investigations and analyses on the conceptions of the instream flow of the advanced countries were conducted. Finaly, the appropriate conception of instream flow for Korean rivers was suggested.

In this study, we analyzed the hydraulic characteristics of rivers by dam discharge change affecting in the river environment. To do this, survey variability of the Soyanggang dam discharge. We analyzed hydraulic characteristics of rivers by the discharge using HEC-RAS model(linear dimension) and RMA2 model(two-dimension) and show the results.

Forest management is done to keep ecological health of forest and to enhancement of its function. Nowadays, the abnormal climate and heavy rain happen frequently. Therefore, there are opinions that the thinning slash allowed in the mountain is flowed in rivers, which can influence in flood damage. This study, we grasp moving characteristics of thinning slash through field survey and achieved basic study about the effect of thinning slash on the discharge capacity of rivers and stream structure.

Spinous loaches widely distributed in Korea, are of many color pattern types, but interestingly the crossband B and C-types of these coaches are collected only in the two rivers, the Yeongsan River and the Seomjin River, flowing through the south-western part of Korea. These two types have not only different color pattern, but also different geographical distribution: the B-type is found in the Yeongsan River and the C-typs, in the Seomjin River. But the both types have four common distinctive features, which easily distinguish them from other already known species of this genus: the B and C-types have the similar total length distribution, the same structure of lamina circularis and scales, and the black spots at the back of their opercula. These peculiarities may be explained by studing the history of these two rivers. The author considers that they are once rivers of the same origin located around the Noryeong and the Sobaeg Mountains, and then were eventually separated from each other as the water level or the crust of Korea peninsula changed. Thus, these two types, B and C, of spinous loaches should have been the same species living in the same river, but in the course of time, these two types have taken different color patterns since the separation of two rivers thus making them impossible to cross between these two populations.

This thesis aims to estimate the rainfall runoff from paddy field in a small watershed during irrigation period. When the data observed at the proposed site are not available, the Monthly Runoff Equation of Korean Rivers which was derived from data observed under the following assumptions is used to study the water balance. a. Monthly base flow was assumed as 10. 2mm even if these is no mouthly rainmfall. b. Monthly comsumption of rainfall was ranged from 100 to 2OOmm without relation to the rainfall depth. However, the small watershed which consists mainly of paddy fields encounters severe droughts and accordingly the baseflow is negligible. Under the circumstances the author has developed the following equation called "Flood Irrigation Method for Rainfall Runoff "taking account of the evapotranspiration, precipitation, seepage, less of transportation, etc. R= __ A 7000(1 +F) -5n(n+1)+ (n+1)(Pr-S-Et)] where: R: runoff (ha-m) A: catchment area (ha) F: coefficient of loss (o.o-0. 20) Pr: rainfall (mm) S: seepage Er: evapotranspiration (mm) To verify the above equation, the annual runoff ratio for 28 years was estimated using the Monthly Runoff Equation of Korean Rivers the Flood Irrigation Method and the Complex Hydrograph Method based on meteorological data observed in the Dae Eyeog project area, and comparison was made with data observed in the Han River basin. Consequently, the auther has concluded that the Flood Irrigation Method is more consi- stent with the Complex Hydrograph Method and data observed than the Monthly Runoff Equation of Korean Rivers.

The production period of Daedongyeojijeondo is estimated from 1861 to 1866 in consideration of place names. Daedongyeojijeondo is elaborated enough that there are the latest data in, especially is better than Haejwajeondo that is a representative map in the 19th century in marking distance. Daedongyeojido is an official map for national defense and administration, on the other hand Daedongyeojijeondo is a popular map in which social and economical contents are included. The recognition of mountains and rivers based on organic view of the land is also represented in Daedongyeojijeondo, and the principle of the whole of mountains and rivers is well reflected. It is far better than modem maps in the expression of road system and distances, tidal area in rivers.

To understand the relative immigration activities (RIA) of hibernal diatom community in Lake Ilgam (at the station with and without macrophyte) and River Han (at the station with different current and nutrient), a natural and artificial bed substrate was deposited from 15 to 29 January 2008. For the study period, both waters comprised huge biomass of diatom, over 75% of total abundance. Nutrients in water column, ash-free dry matter (AFDM) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration in substrates were decreased with increasing of current in rivers, while in lakes the macrophyte largely affected the diatom community and water quality. Algal RIA in rivers was high at stations with high concentration of nutrient, AFDM and Chl-a, and in high nutrients and no macrophytes in lakes, respectively. The species showing a higher RIA was Nitzschia amphibia in rivers and Aulacoseira italica in lakes, while the dominant species were Navicula sp. in rivers and Syndera acus in lakes, suggesting no relationship between water algal biomass and its RIA. These results suggest that the RIA of stream diatom community depends exclusively on the current, while the planktonic diatom in lake was of the macrophyte.

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are emerging contaminants in the aquatic environment. Many pharmaceuticals are not completely removed during wastewater treatment, leading to their presence in wastewater treatment effluents, rivers, lakes, and ground water. Here, we developed analytical methods for monitoring ten pharmaceuticals from surface water by LC/ESI-MS/MS. For sample clean-up and extraction, MCX (mixed cation exchange) and HLB (hydrophilic-lipophilic balance) solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges were used. The limits of detection (LOD) in distilled water and the blank surface water were in the range of 0.006 - 0.65 and 1.66 - 45.05 pg/mL, respectively. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) for the distilled water and the blank surface water were in the range of 0.02 - 2.17 and 5.52 - 150.15 pg/mL, respectively. The absolute recoveries for fortified water samples were between 62.1% and 125.4%. Intra-day precision and accuracy for the blank surface water were 2.9% - 24.1% (R.S.D.) and -16.3% - 16.3% (bias), respectively. In surface wastewater near rivers, chlortetracycline and acetylsalicylic acid were detected frequently in the range of 0.017 - 5.404 and 0.029 - 0.269 ng/mL, respectively. Surface water near rivers had higher levels than surface water of domestic treatment plants.
