Enterovirues may cause gastrointestinal symptoms, cold, and fever, mainly in young children. They are also recognized as important agents in acute infections of the central nervous system such as meningitis and encephalitis, and in subacute and chronic infections of the cardiovascular system such as pericarditis, myocarditis and cardiomyopathy. They also can lead to postviral fatigue syndrome. For the detection of enteroviruses from the environmental samples, the combined cell culture-polymerase chain reaction (CC-PCR) technique was employed. In contrast to EPA standard method which mainly depends on the cell culture, it involved the use of cell culture, followed by PCR to improve the sensitivity and the accuracy of the test. According to the results of survey, from 1999 to 2000, for the presence of enteroviruses in the surface water samples from Nak-dong river, four out of twelve samples were positive for viruses. The titer of viruses in the surface water was ranged from 25 to 250 MPN. All of the viruses isolated were poliovirus type I with 98% nucleotide sequence homology. The result also clearly suggests the seasonal difference in the distribution of the waterborne enteroviruses in surface water because most of the viruses were mainly detected from the summer through the early autumn.

Perchlorate, which is still unregulated, is found in tap water, posing a threat to public health. In and out of Korea, there is no clear standard for drinking water quality or discharge. To make matters worse, Perchlorate study is in its infancy in Korea. This research tracked fresh water and purified water of water purification facility A and B located at the city of D, where Nak-dong River is being utilized as the purified water. And it was found that purified water shows no particular pattern in Perchlorate concentrations but represented a higher level of concentration compared to fresh water. With utilizing the research results, the study sought the impact of activated-carbon treatment process on Perchlorate elimination and found out that Perchlorate concentrations increased 38% after the process. The result proves that conventional water purification process can't eliminate Perchlorate. Therefore, it is reasonable that Perchlorate discharge from sources should be minimized.

본 연구에서는 일별 저수지군 최적연계운영 모형(CoMOM 4.0 : Coordinated Multireservoir Operating Model version 4.0)을 낙동강 수계 실시간 일별 운영에 CoMOM을 적용할 경우를 상정하여, 불확실성을 고려한 실시간 모의 운영을 수행하였다. 실시간 일 운영 시 며칠 정도의 유입량 예측은 가능할 것으로 예상하여 유입량 예측일수의 정확도 증가에 따른 연계 운영 효과를 산정해 본 결과, 전반적으로 과거 실적치에 비하여는 좋지만, 예측일 수가 늘어남에 따라 수계 내 연간 평균 저수량은 감소하는 대신 평균 발전량은 증가하여, 연계운영 총체적 효과가 기하급수적으로 증가됨을 알 수 있었다. 미래 유입량을 전혀 예측하지 못할 경우에는 일평균 유입량을 예측 유입량으로 하여 실시간 댐군 연계모의운영을 하였고, 그 경우에도 여수로 방류로 인한 수계 외 유출을 연 평균 약 214백만$m^3$ 정도 감소시키는 반면, 수계 내 전체 댐 군의 평균저수량을 55백만$m^3$ 증가 시키며, 연간 평균 발전량은 25GWh (약 22.5억원/년의 추가 발전수입) 증가 시킬 수 있을 것으로 분석되었다.

This paper was made to examine floor plan and block plan of traditional upper-class houses in the north Kyeungsangbukdo region with consideration into city and country each. The results of this study were as following; First, Munkyung area is latitudinally located in northern area along with the Yechon and Andong. However, Munkyung area has open plot system while Yechon and Andong has not. It is because even if Munkyung area is located in the western of Nak-Dong river and belongs to the northern region, it has belonged to the cultural area which is developed around Sangju area. Second, Youngduk area belongs to the east-coast but it had frequent cultural exchange and marriage with Andong which is located on the road along with Tae-Baek Mountain. Due to the cultural exchange, their housing type is very similar to those of Andong which is close plot plan of "ㅁ" type. Therefore, even if Youngduk is located in the east-coast area, it should belong to the cultural background of Andong area. Regionally, the culture of Kyongsangbukdo has been divided into northern area, southern area, and east-coast area. But, the findings of this study indicate that the analysis of location and floor plan of housing should not be based on the natural environment oand geographic characteristics. Hence, it should be based on the all aspects of environment, including social and cultural nature to find more reliable and accurate results.e results.

In this paper, a System Dynamics(SD) computer simulation model has been developed to assess the effects of developing and providing an alternate water source. A water service index was also developed to estimate the level of overall customer satisfaction on water supply service. Data from the Busan water supply service and the Korea Development Institute regarding the Nak Dong river bank storage development were utilized during the modeling processes. Some important indicators of the system under study were analyzed by the simulations of development of the alternate water source for Busan. The developed SD model and the water service index can be further utilized as a tool that can assess the extent and timing of an additional service improvement project.

Organics matters including algae are the major contaminants of Nak-dong river and it's concentration Is more Increasing now. The use of coagulants has been Incresed for the effective treatment of drinking water, and aluminum coagulants have been the most widely used in raw water treatment. However, when inorganic metal coagulant is excessively used for long period, it would result in secondary problems, such as increasing sludge production, enhancing the cost of water treatment process, and increasing concentration of residual metal, especially aluminum. Therefore, recently. in order to reduce the use of metal coagulant and enhance the coagulation effectiveness, several alternative coagulants, such as polymeric Inorganic coagulants and organic polymers, have been used In water treatment plants. The objectives of thins research were (11 to determine optimum dosage concentration and compare the coajuiation efnciency at various pH ranees with alum alone, alum+cationic polymer, and alum+anlonlc polymer, (21 to evaluate the amount of alum reduced by using organic polymer, (31 to maximize removal officiency of organic matter and minimize the concentration of residual aluminum.

There are many technical problems, which can not be resolved by the concept of saturated soil mechanics. Unsaturated soils show an apparent cohesion due to negative pore pressure and relatively lower permeability due to entrapped air compared to saturated soils. The determination of engineering properties of soils with various moisture content is very important to evaluate shear strength and stability of natural and engineered soils. So various researches should be made on unsaturated soils. Especially, sandy soils are widely distributed near Nakdong river, one of the four rivers where Restoration Projects were carried out. Many structures such as dams, flood control facilities, detention facilities and reservoirs have been built in this area. In this study, unsaturated triaxial compressive tests were conducted on sands or silty sands at Nakdong river in order to provide their fundamental characteristics for design and construction of geotechnical structures. As a result of the tests, the maximum deviator stress increased as the confining stress and matric suction increased. The cohesion increased non-linearly as the matric suction increased, but the angle of internal friction was marginally changed.

최근 배출되는 미량유해물질로 1991년 페놀, 2004년 1,4-다이옥산, 2006년 퍼클로레이트 검출 등 빈번하게 원수수질 오염사고가 발생하고 새로운 미량유해 화학물질의 배출이 우려됨에 따라, 일부 시민단체, 시의회, 언론 등에서 깨끗하고 안전한 상수원수 확보를 위한 근본적인 대책을 요구하는 목소리가 커지고 있다. 이에 대한 대책의 일환으로 취수원 이전에 대한 타당성 등이 검토되고 있다. 이러한 요구를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 K-WEAP 모형을 이용하여 낙동강수계 물수지 분석을 실시하였다. 관련된 기존자료를 이용하여 용수수요량을 산정하였으며, 갈수량시 물수지 분석을 실시하였다. 연구에 사용된 K-WEAP 모형은 SEI-B(Srockholm Environment Institute, Boston Center)에서 개발된 WEAP에 기반을 두고 우리나라에 특성에 맞게 모의형태를 개선하고 한글화한 모형으로 분석대상 지역으로서 도시지역과 농업지역, 단일 소유역이나 복잡한 하천유역의 물 수요-공급 시스템에 적용할 수 있다. 또한 K-WEAP 모형은 용수목적별 수요량 분석, 물 절약, 수리권과 배분 우선순위, 지하수와 하천유량 모의, 저수지 운영, 수력발전, 오염물질 추적, 생태계 필요수량 분석과 같은 광범위한 부문의 문제들까지 다룰 수 있다. 본 연구에서 물수지 분석에 사용된 대상구간은 낙동지점에서 고령교지점까지 약 120km이며, 낙동강에 유입되는 지류로는 감천과 금호강을 대상에 포함하였다. 대상구간에 대해서는 3가지의 시나리오를 바탕으로 모의를 진행하였다. 선정된 3가지 시나리오는 현재의 대구 인근지역의 취수와 방류를 고려하는 상태와 현실가능성이 있는 2가지의 대안에 대해서 분석을 실시해 보았다. 대안들은 각각의 대구 취수시설을 구미 상류로 이전하여 취수하는 상황과 구미지역 및 칠곡지역의 방류구 시설을 하류로 이전하여 방류하는 상황으로 가정하여 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 현재 상태의 시나리오에서만 갈수기시 만족할 만한 결과를 보여주었고 나머지 2가지의 시나리오에서는 유량이 부족함을 나타났다. 현재의 상태를 모의한 시나리오를 제외한 시나리오의 분석에서는 갈수기 시에 물 부족을 겪게 된다. 이는 낙동강 상류에서 추가방류가 없으면 해결되지 못하는 상황으로 다른 대안들(신규 댐 방류 등)에 대한 추가적인 시나리오 분석이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
