In the coastal areas of Jeju Island, composed of volcanic rocks, saltwater intrusion occurs due to excessive pumping and geological characteristics. Groundwater level and electrical conductivity (EC) in multi-depth monitoring wells in coastal areas were characterized from 2005 to 2019. During the period of the lowest monthly precipitation, from November 2017 until February 2018, groundwater level decreased by 0.32-0.91 m. During the period of the highest monthly precipitation, from September 2019 until October 2019, groundwater level increased by 0.46-2.95 m. Groundwater level fluctuation between the dry and wet seasons ranged from 0.79 to 3.73 m (average 1.82 m) in the eastern area, from 0.47 to 6.57 m (average 2.55 m) in the western area, from 0.77 to 8.59 m (average 3.53 m) in the southern area, and from 1.06 to 12.36 m (average 5.92 m) in the northern area. In 2013, when the area experienced decreased annual precipitation, at some monitoring wells in the western area, the groundwater level decreased due to excessive groundwater pumping and saltwater intrusion. Based on EC values of 10,000 ㎲/cm or more, saltwater intrusion from the coastline was 10.2 km in the eastern area, 4.1 km in the western area, 5.8 km in the southern area, and 5.7 km in the northern area. Autocorrelation analysis of groundwater level revealed that the arithmetic mean of delay time was 0.43 months in the eastern area, 0.87 months in the northern area, 10.93 months in the southern area, and 17.02 months in the western area. Although a few monitoring wells were strongly influenced by nearby pumping wells, the cross-correlation function of the groundwater level was the highest with precipitation in most wells. The seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average model indicated that the groundwater level will decrease in most wells in the western area and decrease or increase in different wells in the eastern area.

동해안에 위치한 화진포 석호는 담수와 염수가 혼합되는 환경으로 생물 다양성이 풍부하여 높은 보존 가치를 지니고 있어 체계적인 관리가 필요하다. 석호의 현재 환경에 대한 분석을 위해 호소수에 영향이 큰 주변 대수층의 지하수 수위 분포와 지하수 흐름의 특성을 파악하였다. 또한 호소수의 염분도가 유지되는 기작으로 추정되는 대수층으로의 해수침투의 영향을 파악하기 위해 수리지구 화학적 변동을 분석하였다. 연구 결과 사주지역의 대수층에 쐐기형태의 담수-염수 경계면이 분포하며, 강우가 적은 기간이 지속되고 온도가 높아 석호의 증발이 일어날 경우 담수-염수 경계면이 상승하여 지하수를 통한 해수의 유입 가능성이 높은 것으로 판단된다. 수리지구 화학적 특성으로는 이온델타(혼합된 지하수의 이론적인 화학조성과 실제 시료가 가지는 값과의 차이) 값을 산출하여 해수 침투에 따른 대수층 내에서 양이온 교환반응 및 침전 반응이 일어난 것으로 추정하였다. 각 지점별로 해수가 혼합된 비율을 계산하기 위해서 산소동위원소와 염소이온을 추적자로 사용하였으며 혼합비의 평균값은 0.3, 최대값은 0.87을 나타내었다. 전체적인 혼합비 결과는 해안에서의 거리에 따라 분포하는 것으로 판단되나, 이론적인 예상과는 상이한 결과가 일부 존재하는데 그 부근의 대수층 특성이 반영된 것으로 판단된다. 더욱 구체적인 분석을 위해서는 계절적인 변화와 해수침투 기작을 모사하는 등 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The Vietnamese Mekong Delta(VMD) covers an area of 62,250 km² in the lowest basin of the Mekong Delta where more than half of the country's total rice production takes place. In 2016, an estimated 1.29 million tonnes of Vietnam's rice were lost to the country's biggest drought in 90 year and particularly in VMD, at least 221,000 hectares of rice paddies were hit by the drought and related saltwater intrusion from the South China Sea. In this study, 3D numerical simulations using Delft3D hydrodynamic models with calibration and validation process were performed to examine flow characteristics, climate change scenarios, water level changes, and salinity concentrations in the nine major estuaries and coastal zones of VMD during the 21^st century. The river flows and their interactions with ocean currents were modeled by Delft3D and since the water levels and saltwater intrusion in the area are sensitive to the climate conditions and upstream dam operations, the hydrodynamic models considered discharges from the dams and climate data provided by the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6(CMIP6). The models were calibrated and verified using observational water levels, salinity distribution, and climate change data and scenarios. The results agreed well with the observed data during calibration and validation periods. The calibrated models will be used to make predictions about the future salinity intrusion events, focusing on the impacts of sea level rise due to global warming and weather elements.

Small islands rely heavily on groundwater resources in addition to rainwater as the source of freshwater since surface water bodies are often absent. The groundwater resources are vulnerable to sea level rise, coastal flooding, saltwater intrusion, irregular pattern of precipitation resulting in long droughts and flash floods. Increase in population increases the demand for the limited groundwater resources, thus aggravating the problem. In this study, the effects of climate change on Tongatapu Island, Kingdom of Tonga, a small island in Pacific Ocean, are investigated using a sharp interface transient groundwater flow model. Twenty nine downscaled General Circulation Model(GCM) predictions are input to a water balance model to estimate the groundwater recharge. The temporal variation in recharge is predicted over the period of 2010 to 2099. A set of GCM models are selected to represent the ensemble of 29 models based on cumulative recharge at the end of the century. This set of GCM model predictions are then used to simulate a total of six climate scenarios, three each (2010-2039, 2040-2069, and 2070-2099) under RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5. The impacts of predicted climate change on groundwater resources is evaluated in terms of freshwater volume changes and saltwater ratios in pumping wells compared to present conditions. Though the cumulative recharge at the end of the century indicates a wetter climate compared to the present conditions the large variability in rainfall pattern results in frequent periods of groundwater drought leading to saltwater intrusion in pumping wells. Thus for sustaining the limited groundwater resources in small islands, implementation of timely assessment and management practices are of utmost importance.

섬진강 하구역에서 모래채취로 인한 지형변화와, 댐 및 취수장의 증가로 인한 유량감소로 인해 해수의 역류범위가 증가하여 참게나 재첩과 같은 경제성 어종이 감소하고, 염분으로 인한 농업용수사용 불가와 같은 염수피해가 늘어가고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2차원 수치모형인 RMA-2, 4와 3차원 수치모형인 EFDC를 각각 이용하여 밀물 시 염수가 전파되는 범위 및 염수농도를 모의하고, 동시에 2차원 모형과 3차원 모형을 비교하여 모의목적에 대한 각 모형의 장 단점을 알아보았다. 모의결과를 살펴보면 최저 수위 시 두 모형이 큰 차이를 보이는 것을 볼 수 있었으며, EFDC가 상류쪽으로 더 길게 염수침입이 일어나는 것을 볼 수 있었다.

섬진강 하구는 남해안 중부에 위치해 있으며, 하구둑이 건조되어 있지 않아 하구역 일대와 광양만이 하나의 넓은 기수역을 형성하고 있다. 또한 섬진강 하구는 상류에 섬진강댐, 주암댐 등이 건설되고 취수량이 증가하면서 하구로 유입되는 수량이 감소해 기수역이 상류로 확대된 것으로 보고되고 있다. 2008년 주암댐에서는 갈수기 때마다 대두되는 수질악화 및 염수침입을 방지하고자 3/10~3/24일에 걸쳐 1차, 4/23~5/7에 걸쳐 2차로 나누어 flushing 방류를 실시하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 실측된 염분 자료를 토대로 3차원 수리 및 수질해석이 가능한 EFDC 모형을 활용하여 flushing 방류를 실시한 경우와 하지 않았을 경우에 대하여 모의를 수행함으로써 flushing 방류 유무에 따른 하구의 염수침입 및 염해피해 방지 효과에 대해 분석하였다.

Estuary is a transitional zone between river and ocean environment that receives the maritime and riverine influence simultaneously. Estuaries are the most productive habitats because their incoming water provides large quantities of nutrients. The Seomjin River estuary, located in the middle south of Korea, has no barrage and shows natural characteristic of estuary. However, due to dredging and reclamation the environment of the estuary has been changed significantly in the river mouth. In addition, increased freshwater intake in midstream of the Seomjin River results in salinity intrusion. In this paper salinity variation in downstream estuary of the Seomjin River has been simulated and tested using EFDC model. The results of simulation were compared with measured data collected at three points, Culture & Art Center, Sumjin Iron Bridge, and Mokdori, located at 9Km, 14Km, and 15.5Km respectively from downstream estuary. Based on the simulated results, the contribution of the flushing discharge has been evaluated in preventing the salinity intrusion by increasing the discharge flowrates released from the Juam dam.

To analyze the saline intrusion in the place, such as an estuary, the three-dimensional numerical model is developed. In this study, the advection terms of the governing equations are discretized by upwind scheme. By using an explicit scheme for the longitudinal direction and an implicit scheme for the vertical direction, the numerical model is free from the restriction of temporal step size caused by a relatively small grid ratio. The equation of state is used to consider the density, and the scalar transport equation for salinity is employed the third order TVD to scheme to prevent unphysical oscillation near discontinuity. In order to verify saline intrusion, the numerical model is conducted to compare the previous model in the lock exchange. The present model generally show a good agreement with the previous one.
