Background: The plant communities within reservoir drawdown zones are ecologically important as they provide a range of ecosystem services such as stabilizing the shoreline, improving water quality, enhancing biodiversity, and mitigating climate change. The aim of the study was therefore to identify the major environmental factors affecting these plant communities within the drawdown zone of the Soyangho Reservoir in South Korea, which experiences a monsoonal climate, and thereafter to (1) elucidate the plant species responses and (2) compare the soil seedbank composition along main environmental gradients. Results: Two main environmental gradients affecting the plant community structure were identified within the drawdown zone; these were a vertical and longitudinal gradient. On the vertical dimension, a hydrological gradient of flood/exposure, the annual-dominated plant community near the water edge changed to a perennial-dominated community at the highest elevation. On the longitudinal dimension from the dam to the upstream, plant species composition changed from an upland forest-edge community to a lowland riverine community, and this was correlated with slope degree, soil particle size, and soil moisture content. Simultaneously, the composition of the soil seedbank was separated along the vertical gradient of the drawdown zone, with mainly annuals near the water edge and some perennials at higher elevations. The species composition similarity between the seedbank and extant vegetation was greater in the annual communities at low elevation than in the perennial communities at higher elevation. Conclusions: The structures of plant community and soil seedbank in the drawdown zone of a monsoonal riverine reservoir were changed first along the vertical and secondly along the longitudinal gradients. The soil seedbank could play an important role on the vegetation regeneration after the disturbances of flood/exposure in the drawdown zone. These results indicate that it is important to understand the vertical and longitudinal environmental gradients affecting shoreline plant community structure and the role of soil seedbanks on the rapid vegetation regeneration for conserving and restoring the drawdown zone of a monsoonal reservoir.

Water quality in the Daecheong reservoir has been deteriorated by algal bloom due to nutrient supply from the upstream of the Daecheong reservoir after heavy rainfall. Algal bloom is propagated from eutrophicated tributary into the main body of the reservoir according to the hydrological conditions. This study is aimed to estimate the water current and temperature effect by the simulation of dam spill flow control using water quality model, CE-QUAL-W2 in 2003. Water current was resulted in nutrient transport from upstream of main reservoir and nutrients were delivered up to downstream by fast water velocity. Algal blooms occurred in stagnate zone of reservoir downstream as the current of downstream was retarded according to dam outflow control. Consequently water balance in stagnate zone triggered a rise of water temperature in summer. It affected algal bloom in the embayment of the reservoir. The simulation result by outflow control scenarios showed that spill flow augmentation induced in water body instability of stagnate zone so that water temperature declined. It could be suggested that outflow control minimize algal bloom in the downstream in the flooding season as long as water elevation level is maintained properly.

Chungju reservoir is a multipurpose dam lake located at the upstream of Nm Han river and known as having the biggest watershed and the second water volume in korea. Conclusions are made as follows. 1. Environmental characteristics of the reservoir appear to be as follows. Chungju reservoir has long hydaulic retention time, 60-160 days. Water column has oxygen depletion zone in hypolimnion. Chungju reservoir is found to be in the midst of eutrophication. Chlorophyll-a and other physical parameters are found to be significantly dependent. 2. Nitrogen to phosphorus ratio was 50-350 for the water samples taken from the reservoir in 1996. It is very important clue for water quality management in relation to phytoplankton growing kinetics. Variations in chlorophyll-a contents appear to be related closely to total phosphorus concentration.

The Soyangho Reservoir in Korea has a large drawdown zone, with an annual maximum water level fluctuation of 37 m due to dam operations to maintain a stable water supply and control flooding, especially during the monsoon period. The floristic composition, distribution and biomass of the major plant communities in the drawdown zone of the Soyangho Reservoir were assessed in order to understand their responses to the wide water level fluctuation. Species richness of vascular plants was low, and species composition was dominated by herbaceous annuals. Principal coordinates analysis using both flora and environmental data identified slope angle and the distance from the dam as important factors determining floristic composition. The species richness was low in the steep drawdown zone close to the dam, where much of the soil surface was almost devoid of vegetation. In shallower slopes, distant from the dam plant communities composed of mainly annuals were found. The large fluctuation in water level exposed soil where these annuals could establish. An overall biomass of 122 t (metric tons) Dry Matter was estimated for the reservoir, containing ca 3.6 t N (nitrogen) and ca 0.3 t P (phosphorus); the role of the vegetation of the drawdown zone in carbon sequestration and water pollution were briefly discussed.

Water quality in the Daecheong reservoir has been deteriorated by algal bloom every year. Algal bloom is propagated from eutrophicated tributary into the main body of the reservoir during the wet season. Nutrients from diffuse sources trigger the propagation of the algal bloom. This study is aimed to analyze relationship between the water current by the simulation and algae transport from the main body in the Daecheong reservoir including tributary where algal bloom has occurred seriously every year. Water quality model CE-QUAL-W2 was applied to analyze water movement in draught season (2001) and flooding season (2003). The result of simulation corresponded with the observed water elevation level, 63~80 m and showed stratification of the Daecheong reservoir. In the draught season, as velocity and direction off low in the reservoir was estimated to affect algae transport including nutrient supply from small tributary, algal blooms occurred in the stagnate zone of middle stream of the reservoir. On the other hand, in the flooding season, it was resulted in nutrient transport from upstream of main reservoir and nutrients were delivered up to downstream by fast water velocity. In result, algal blooms occurred in stagnate zone of reservoir downstream as the current of downstream was retarded according to dam outflow control.

The objectives of this study were to analyze reservoir trophic state, based on Trophic State Index (TSI), spatial variation patterns of three zones (riverine, transition, and lacustrine zone), and empirical models through 20-years long-term data analysis. Trophic variables of TP and CHL-a were highest during the summer monsoon, and decreased along the main axis from the riverine to lacustrine zone. In the mean time, TN did not show the trend. Ratios of N:P and Secchi disc transparency (SD) increased from the riverine to lacustrine zone. The analysis of trophic state index (TSI) showed that mean TSI (TP) and TSI (CHL-a) were 62 and 57, respectively, and these values were highest in the transition zone during the summer. This zone should be managed well due to highest lake water pollution. The analysis of Trophic State Index Deviation (TSID) showed that algal growth was primarily limited by light penetration, and this was most pronounced in the monsoon season. The analysis of empirical models showed that the value of $R^2$, based on CHL-SD model, was 0.30 (p < 0.0001) in the transition zone and the $R^2$, based on TP-SD model, was 0.41 (p < 0.0001) in the transition zone.

$Cu(In_{1-x}Ga_x)Se_2$(CIGS) 박막 태양전지는 Chalcopyrite 계 박막 태양전지로 Cu, In, Ga, Se 각 원소의 조성을 적절히 조절하여 박막을 성장시킨다. 성장시킨 CIGS 박막은 광흡수계수가 $10^5cm^{-1}$로 다른 물질보다 뛰어나고 직접 천이형 반도체로서 얇은 두께로도 고효율의 박막 제작이 가능하다. CIGS 태양전지를 제조하는 방법은 3-stage 동시 증착법, 금속 전구체의 셀렌화 공정법, 전기 증착법 등이 있다. 그 중에 금속 전구체의 셀렌화 공정법은 다른 제조 방법에 비해 대면적 생산에 유리한 장점이 있다. 하지만 아직 상대적으로 3-stage 동시 증착법에 비해 낮은 에너지 변환 효율이 보고된다. 본 실험에서는 기존의 금속 전구체의 셀렌화 공정법과는 달리 전구체 증착과 셀렌화 공정을 동시에 하고, Se cracker를 통하여 Se 원료를 주입하는 방식인 반응성 스퍼터링 공정에서 reservoir zone의 온도 변화에 따른 특성을 분석하였다. Se cracker의 reservoir zone 온도가 증가할수록 Cu/(In+Ga) 비가 증가한다. CIGS 박막 태양전지의 구조는 Al/Ni/ITO/i-ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/Soda lime glass이다. CIGS 박막의 조성비가 Cu/(In+Ga)=0.89, Ga/(In+Ga)=0.17인 박막 태양전지에서 개방전압 0.34 V, 단락전류밀도 $32.61mA/cm^2$, 충실도 56.2% 그리고 변환 효율 6.19%를 얻었다. 본 연구는 2011년도 지식경제부의 재원으로 한국에너지 기술평가원(KTEP)의 지원을 받아 수행한 연구 과제입니다(No.20093020010030).

CO₂ 주입 후 저류층은 암석물리 특성이 변하므로 이 연구에서는 저류층을 물성이 선형으로 변하는 전이대 지층모델로 구성한다. 울프 반사계수 함수는 전이대 상하지층의 속도비, 주파수, 전이대 두께 함수로 구성되어 있어 저류층 두께나 해저면 전이대 두께를 추정하는데 활용할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 심층학습을 이용하여 전이대 두께를 예측 방법을 제안한다. 심층학습을 적용하기 위해 사암 저류층, 셰일 덮개암으로 구성한 인공 전이대 지층모델에 두께에 따른 울프 반사계수 모델링을 수행하고 시간-스펙트럼 영상자료를 확보하였다. 두께별 시간-주파수 스펙트럼 영상과 중합단면도 트레이스에서 구한 시간-주파수 스펙트럼 비교로부터 구한 두께 추정결과는 항상 정확하게 전이대의 두께를 제시하지는 못하였다. 그러나 다양한 환경에서 학습자료를 확보하고 정확도를 높이면 현장자료적용이 가능할 것으로 본다.

하천 상류에 위치한 농업용 소형 저수지인 금풍지에서 침수식물의 분포와 수도의 공간적 시간적 변이를 파악하기 위하여, 양날갈퀴법과 음파탐지법을 이용하여 침수식물의 분포, 풍부도 및 생물량을 측정하였다. 침수식물의 출현종수와 식생구조는 연안대의 지형 경사도와 수심에 영향을 받았다. 침수식물 식물상의 종풍부도는 완만한 연안대에서 높았다. DCA (detrended correspondence analysis)에 의한 식생분석 결과에 의하면 침수식물의 식생구조는 수심에 의하여 영향을 받았다. 금풍저수지에서 침수식물은 최대 수심 2.8 m까지 분포하였다. 침수식물 분포지는 수변부 경사가 급하고 연간 수위변동폭이 3.5 m에 달하여 총수면적의 6%에 불과하였다. 침수식물의 생물량은 수위변동과 홍수기 탁수 유입으로 인하여 제한되었다. 결론적으로 하천 상류에 조성된 농업용 저수지인 금풍지에서 침수식물의 식생구조는 수심과 연안대 경사에 의하여 영향을 받았고, 연안대 경사가 급하고 연수위변동이 커서 침수식물의 분포와 생물량이 제한되었다.
