Radial collector wells have been widely used for large-capacity groundwater development in riparian environments, and many empirical equations have been developed for initial estimates of groundwater yield. We compare the initial yield estimates produced by several empirical equations for the radial collector well at the Anseongcheon stream site. The results of Babac's, Kordas', and Petrovic's methods are similar to the actual yield of $6,124m^3/d$, but Milojevic's method predicts a higher yield than the observed value. The conditions under which these methods are applicable explain the observed differences between the actual and estimated yields. The applicability of empirical equations is evaluated by changing the input variables of distance from well to river, number of horizontal wells, thickness of aquifer, length of horizontal well, and hydraulic conductivity. The results indicate that the conditions under which each method is applicable must be considered carefully when estimating groundwater yield, and hydraulic conductivity must be estimated accurately.

Since 1970's, the rivers in industrial cities and metropolitan cities in Korea have been severely contaminated and the riverfronts have been to garbage yard, warehouses and sanitary facilities that produce low efficiency in urban land-use. As a result, riverfront in most cities became lost space and artificial area which composed of asphalt road, concrete riverbank and parking lot. However, Sustainable management is the main concept of riverfront development in 21st century. Also, in contemporary riverfront space, it is the pivotal paradigm that the development of eco-space and mixture of cultural space. Citizen require greener, more ecological and water-friendly space in riverfront of city. So, the purpose of this paper lies in suggestion for building sustainable development and management for riverfront in Korean city. For this purpose, this paper has reviewed the developmental trend of recent riverfront, has analyzed locational environment and land use of riverfront in city, has set policy and the strategy for sustainable riverfront.

Excess pumping on the river bank filtration well causes the over drawdown in the protected area of bank, which may make many problems such as soil water contents, Pumping head in the irrigated land, and it needs more irrigation and development of the deeper irrigating well. In this study the installation of the artificial recharging well was suggested to reduce the excess draw down in the protected land. Artificial recharging wells were applied at the bank filtration site of Changwon city by using Visual-MODFLDW. The optimized conditions are calculated that the recharging well is located about loom apart from the pumping well, and the recharging rate is $5\%$ of the pumping yield.

This study aimed to identify the aquatic and riparian factors associated with the presence/absence of the Eurasian otter in the Nakdong river basin, where the species is relatively more abundant than other otter species. Environmental factors and presence records were collected. Geographical Information System technology and chi-square test were used to compare environmental gradients in aquatic and riparian factors between presence and absence sites. Aquatic habitat attributes were evaluated with natural riverside sandbars and channel crossing artificial structures, the ratio of channel width to alluvial plain width, riverbed substrate, and flow diversity. Riverbank characteristics, bank materials, man-made embankment types, and land use/land cover of inland and riverside areas were selected as riparian habitat attributes. Compared to the aquatic attributes, riparian attributes were highly significant when assessing otter presence and absence sites, suggesting that conservation of suitable riparian areas to provide maternity and resting areas for otter species is essential in the Nakdong river basin. None of the aquatic attributes examined were statistically significant when evaluating otter presence or absence. These results indicate that the presence of suitable riparian area for resting and reproduction habitats is more critical to the presence of Eurasian otter than food availability in aquatic areas. To inform implementation of effective conservation actions, broad-scale factors, such as watershed attributes, would be needed to further assess habitat conditions of the Eurasian otter.

이상기후 및 극한 홍수 발생빈도의 증가 등으로 인해 많은 수공 구조물이 붕괴 위험에 노출되어 있다. 사전 피해 예방 및 경감을 위해 다양한 수공구조물의 붕괴 현상에 대하여 수리실험적 접근방법을 통한 현상이해 및 예상결과 비교 검증이 필요하다. 그 중에서 제방붕괴에 대한 수리실험은 수치모의를 통한 분석의 어려움 때문에 대부분 모형실험을 통해서 이루어지고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 실제규모의 제방붕괴 선행실험의 측정결과를 활용하여 실험설계에 이용 하였다. 모형은 실험공간의 규모를 고려하여 축척을 1:10 으로하고, 하도내 흐름 안정을 위해 수로의 길이 는 16, 저폭은 $b\geq10h$를 만족하는 하천으로 설계하여 b를 3m로 설정 하였다. Fr수는 0.29로 원형과 동일하게 하고, 그에 따른 유량 ( )는 0.538m/s로 하였다. 실제 모형 제작에서는 현장 실험실의 펌프용량에 따른 가용유량 ($Q__{max}$)의 제약에 따라 수로가 직선이고 좌우가 대칭인 점을 감안하여 폭을 1/2로 절단 하고 유량은 $0.269m^3/s$(Q/2)를 공급하였다. 위와 같이 모형제작을 위한 실험 설계시 현장 여건을 고려하여 모형을 변형할 경우 EIM(Experimental Information Modeling)을 이용한 수리영향에 대한 분석을 통한 설계검증이 필요하다. FLOW-3D를 이용한 3차원 수치모의를 통하여 동일 지점에서의 유속과 수심을 분석하여 흐름양상을 비교 하였으며, 유속과 수심의 측정위치는 그림 1에 도시하였다. 수치모의 결과 측정지점에서의 수위가 하도 바닥을 기준으로 0.25m로 동일할 경우 수로 단면에 대한 유속 분포가 제방을 기준으로 2b/3까지는 유사한 경향을 보였다. 그 결과, $b\geq10h$인 수로에서 제방붕괴를 위한 모형 설계시 하도 폭을 1/2만 만들 경우에도 실험의 신뢰성이 확보된다는 것을 확인하였다.

This study was performed to build up the ecological guidelines to grasp the structure of the vegetation change which is due to river rehabilitation. Anyway, river ecosystem and function has been destroyed owing to river development. It is important that river vegetation supplies ecological corridor and biotope. Two survey sites(Wonsungcheon and Pungseocheon)were investigated in the aspect of plant ecosystem and structure to settle the practical concept of river ecosystem. Each survey site was subdivided to five plots. The site was surveyed through the belttransect method. Wonsungcheon gets more seriously polluted as it runs to the urban area. In other words, there are On the other hand, Pungseocheon has more naturality but its downstream is under the pressure of various wood plants in the upstream area, but downstream area is dominated by naturalized plants such as Bidens frondosa, Panicum dichotomiflorum, etc. Riverbank of downstream has been changed into farm and parking lot. development. It should be preserved definitely because it still has abundant naturality and wetland which formed a biotope. The objective of the research is to find out the river retrogression and maintenance methods based on the riparian vegetation structure. To manage the river ecologically, hydrophytes should be induced partly for natural purification after the riverside is rehabilitated. The vegetation should be induced step by step to restore natural river and steady monitoring and research are required.

Silt or clay alluvium fully saturated with water generally shows low resistivity. Sometimes it is believe that the low resistivity layer is considered as good aquifer but this makes problems in the development of groundwater. To overcome this problem, we adopted induced-polarization(IP) method with resistivity method. Laboratory experiments and resistivity/IP field surveys with non-polarization electrodes were conducted for the study. Laboratory experiments shows that the increase of clay contents in the sample mixed with sand and clay give low resistivity and high chargeability. We used this experiment results in the interpretation of resistivity/IP field data which were obtained in riverbank filtration. Finally, the layer which has low resistivity and chargeabilty would be regarded as a good aquifer for the development of groundwater intake.

In order to prevent the decrease in well efficiencies due to friction in the axial flow in long, large-diameter laterals, a multi-diameter lateral was devised and tested through lab-scale sand-box experiments to assess its performance. In the experiment, three different production rates were applied over the multi-diameter and the three single-diameter laterals to obtain the hydraulic head distributions for each, which was used to assess the performance of the laterals. Results elucidated that the multi-diameter lateral reduced the material cost by more than a third, in comparison to the single-diameter lateral, while maintaining the production rate at higher than 93%, proving its superiority. Furthermore, results indicated that exit velocities exceeding 0.8 m/sec in horizontal wells tended to distort the hydraulic head distribution near the exit, providing evidence of its inefficiency.
