  • This paper introduces the Cheonggye-cheon restoration project. The restoration project aims to revive the 600-year-old city of Seoul by recovering the historical heritage, guaranteeing safety from the deteriorated covering structures, creating the environment-friendly space, and revitalizing the neglected city centers. In order to understand the current hydrological cycle of the Chenggye-cheon watershed, the annual water balance of the region was calculated using the observed data including precipitation, runoff, water supply and sewage, and the changes in the groundwater level. The $2001{\sim}2002$ data were used to calibrate the WEP, and the $2003{\sim}2004$ data were used to verify the WEP. The calibration and validation results for the flood hydrograph how a reasonable value (at Majanggyo station, the R2 for the calibration period was 0.9, and that for the validation period was 0.7). According to the annual water balance of the Cheonggye-cheon watershed for 2004, the amount of surface runoff, infiltration, and evapotranspiration was 1,097mm, 216mm and 382mm, respectively, for an annual precipitation of 1,499mm. The application results from WEP, a distributed hydrological model, provide more detailed information of the watershed, and the model will be useful for improving the hydrological cycle in urban watershed.

  • Zinc and lead pollution are public environmental issues that have attracted lots of attention for a long time. Landfill leachate contains heavy metals, such as Zn(II) and Pb(II), which are usually related to the pollution of groundwater, especially in developing countries. Bentonite has been proven to be effective in enhancing the membrane property of clay, by which landfill liners can have better barrier performance towards the migration of contaminants. In this study, 5% sodium bentonite amended with locally available Fukakusa clay was utilized to evaluate the membrane behavior towards the heavy metals zinc and lead. The chemico-osmotic efficiency coefficient, ${\omega}$, was obtained through Zn(II) and Pb(II) solutions with different concentrations of 0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 50 mM. According to the results, ${\omega}$ continually decreased as the Zn(II) and Pb(II) concentrations increased, which is consistent with the Gouy-Chapman theory. Compared to normal inorganic ions, the membrane behavior towards heavy metal ions was lower. The migration of heavy metal ions was not observed based on experimental results, which can be attributed to the adsorption or ion exchange reaction. The mechanisms of the membrane performance change were discussed with the assistance of XRD patterns, free swelling results, XRF results, and SEM images.

  • This paper presents case histories and research projects related to geotechnical challenges at waste landfill sites in Japan. Due to the limitation of inland space available to waste disposal, coastal landfills and the associated containment systems are important considerations, particularly for metropolitan areas. Experimental works on heavy metals mobility using a large column to simulate the redox potential at the coastal landfill sites are introduced. After the closure of landfill sites, they are expected to be utilized as new land space, since new space is difficult to find in urban area. In the redevelopment of such closed landfill sites, there are possibilities of environmental risks, such as generation of toxic gas and leachate, differential settlement of the waste layer, damage to the lining system. Whether the pile installation through the clay layer acting as a landfill bottom barrier is environmentally acceptable or not has been a great concern in the redevelopment of closed waste landfill sites in particular coastal landfill sites. An analytical study to evaluate the cost-effective remedial option for a dumped waste site located along a landslide area, where cut-off wall keyed into the aquitard might elevate groundwater level and thus may not be employed, is presented.

  • Jeju island has an area of $1,810km^2$ and is considered the largest island in South Korea. In Jeju Island the average annual precipitation is 1,957mm. About 54% of precipitation is estimated to be lost due to evapo-transpiration and direct runoff, and the remainder is recharged. Historically springs and puddles were the island's primary sources of water. However, after 1970 all sectors, including the urban and industrial sectors depended solely on groundwater as their water resource. As vast amount of water is being recharged the Island has many springs, especially near the coastlines. Historlcally, spring of Jeju Island formed village and make it possible to continue a life. Also it produces many values such as the spring related story, culture, tourism and ecosystems. Especially, the naturally rare phenomenon that about 900 springs appear over the whole area of Jeju Island makes it possible to call it as a natural heritage. As a result of this most springs have either been destroyed or been in the state of neglect. In some cases it has been observed that springs were preserved by nature, however majority of the cases saw springs losing their own nature as a result of abandonment. It was recorded that there were 911 springs in Jeju Island with most of them being distributed along the coast, which consequently increases their susceptibility to seawater intrusion. The objective of this study is therefore to analyze Eco-cultural and Engineering characteristics about springs in the island, highlighting its past utilization and reestablishing its potential as a source of spring.

  • Apparent changes in the natural hydrologic cycle causing more frequent floods in urban areas and surface water quality impairment have led stormwater management solutions towards the use of green and sustainable practices that aims to replicate pre-urbanization hydrology. Among the widely documented applications are infiltration techniques that temporarily store rainfall runoff while promoting evapotranspiration, groundwater recharge through infiltration, and diffuse pollutant reduction. In this study, a laboratory-scale infiltration device was built to be able to observe and determine the factors affecting flow variations and corresponding solids removal through a series of experiments employing semi-synthetic stormwater runoff. Results reveal that runoff and solids reduction is greatly influenced by the infiltration capability of the underlying soil which is also affected by rainfall intensity and the available depth for water storage. For gravel-filled structures, a depth of at least 1 m and subsoil infiltration rates of not more than 200 mm/h are suggested for optimum volume reduction and pollutant removal. Moreover, it was found that the length of the structure is more critical than the depth for applications in low infiltration soils. These findings provide a contribution to existing guidelines and current understanding in design and applicability of infiltration systems.

  • The increase of impermeable area ratio is causing hydrologic cycle problems in urban areas and groundwater depletion in rural areas, permeable pavements are getting attention to expand permeable areas. The performance of the permeable concrete block pavement, which is part of the permeable pavement, is greatly affected by the porosity. In addition, the permeability coefficient is a major factor when designing permeable concrete block pavement. Existing porosity and permeability test methods have problems such as uneconomical or poor field applicability. The object of this study was to develop a methodology for evaluating porosity and permeability coefficient using a surface image of a permeable concrete block. Specimens are manufactured with various porosity ranges and porosity and permeability tests are performed. After surface image preprocessing, normalization and binarization methods were compared. Through this, the method with the highest correlation with the lab test result was determined. From the results, the PDR (pore determined ratio) was obtained. Simple linear regression analysis is performed with PDR and lab test results. The results showed a high correlation of R2 more than 0.8, and the errors were also low.

  • Ground subsidence in urban areas is mainly caused by anthropogenic factors such as excessive groundwater extraction and underground infrastructure development in the subsurface composed of soft materials. Global Navigation Satellite System data with high temporal resolution have been widely used to measure surface displacements accurately. However, these point-based terrestrial measurements with the low spatial resolution are somewhat limited in observing two-dimensional continuous surface displacements over large areas. The synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) technique can construct relatively high spatial resolution surface displacement information with accuracy ranging from millimeters to centimeters. Although constellation operations of SAR satellites have improved the revisit cycle, the temporal resolution of space-based observations is still low compared to in-situ observations. In this study, we evaluate the extraction of a time-series of surface displacement in Incheon Metropolitan City, South Korea, using the small baseline subset technique implemented using the commercial software, Gamma. For this purpose, 24 COSMO-SkyMed X-band SAR observations were collected from July 12, 2011, to August 27, 2012. The time-series surface displacement results were improved by reducing random phase noise, correcting residual phase due to satellite orbit errors, and mitigating nonlinear atmospheric phase artifacts. The perpendicular baseline of the collected COSMO-SkyMed SAR images was set to approximately 2-300 m. The surface displacement related to the ground subsidence was detected approximately 1 cm annually around a few Incheon Subway Line 2 route stations. The sufficient coherence indicates that the satellite orbit has been precisely managed for the interferometric processing.

  • 본 연구에서는 폐금속광산 지역에서의 비소가 인체에 미치는 위해영향을 정량적으로 평가하기 위하여 동일, 옥동, 동정, 도곡 및 화천광산 주변 지역에서 광미, 토양, 농작물 및 지하수를 채취하여 화학분석을 실시하였다. 이들 폐금속광산 주변에 폐기된 광미내 비소 함량은 매우 높게 나타났으며, 이러한 광미가 바람이나 강우에 의해 광미댐 하부에 있는 농경지나 하천으로 유입되어 주변 환경을 오염시킬 가능성이 크므로 이들 토양, 농작물, 자연수 시료들에 대한 화학분석자료를 바탕으로 인체위해성평가 모델링을 실시하였다. 폐금속광산 지역에서의 인체노출경로는 농사활동을 통한 토양의 섭취, 지하수(식수)의 섭취, 쌀의 섭취, 농사활동에 의한 토양의 피부접촉, 목욕에 의한 지하수의 피부접촉 등 5가지로 파악할 수 있었다. 각 노출경로별 비발암성위해도 평가 결과, 모든 광산에서 지하수를 식수로 섭취하는 노출경로와 쌀의 섭취를 통해 비소의 독성위해도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 동일광산과 옥동광산에서는 HI지수가 7.0 이상으로, 화천광산의 경우는 5.0 이상으로 매우 높게 나타나 이들 지역 주민들의 비소의 독성위해성이 높았다. 비소에 대한 발암위해도 평가 결과, 동일광산, 옥동광산 및 화천광산 지역의 쌀 섭취의 노출경로를 통한 비소에 의해 암이 발생할 확률은 만명중의 5명에서 8명 정도로 높게 나타났다. 지하수를 식수로 섭취하는 경우, 비소의 발암위해도도 이들 광산지역에서 만명중의 1명보다 높게 나타났다. 이는 미국 EPA에서 제시한 초과발암위해도보다도 크므로 이들 지역 주민들이 비소에 의해 오염된 농작물(쌀)이나 지하수를 식수로 지속적으로 장기간 섭취하게 된다면 비소가 건강에 미치는 위해영향이 크다고 판단된다.warfarin 용량 조절에 유용할 것으로 생각된다.대한 치료 순응도가 높아졌다. 후 동율동 전환율이나 좌심방 수축능 회복에 좋은 결과를 보여주었다 그러나 향후 대상환자들에 대한 중장기적인 추적 관찰이 필요하리라 생각한다.pm1.6$일째에 관상동맥조영술을 시행하여 모든 도관의 개존율$(100\%=57/57)$을 확인하였다 수술 전 중재 술을 시행한 1개소에서는 중재술 부위의 재협착소견이 보여 수술 후 조영술시 재풍선확장술로 치료하였다. 수술 후 추적관찰(평균 $25\pm26$개월)동안 1예에서 심부전으로 사망하였다. 생존한 환자 24예에서 술 후 평균 $9.6\pm3$개월째에 관상동맥조영술을 시행하였고 이식도관이 string 징후를 보인 1예를 제외하고 모두 개존(56/57)되어 있었으며, 약물용출형 스탠트를 시행하기 이전의 12예의 중재술 중 2예에서 $50\%$ 이상의 스텐트 협착이 있었으나 흉통의 재발은 없었다. 결론: 하이브리드 관상동맥 우회 술은 수술위험도를 낮추기 위하여 최소절개 관상동맥우회술과 병합하여 시도될 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 선택적 환자들에서는 정중 흉골절개 관상동맥우회술과 병합하여 수술관련 유병률을 낮추고 심근의 완전 재관류화를 도모할 수 있었다.호도에서 가장 적절한 방법으로 사료된다.비위생 점수가 유의적으로 높은 점수를 나타내었다. 조리종사자의 위생지식 점수와 위생관리 수행수준의 상관관계를 조사한 결과, 위생지식의 기기설비위생은 위생관리 수행수준의 합계(p<0.01)에서 유의적인 상관관계(p<0.01)를 나타내었으며, 위생지식의 식중독 및 미생물은 위생관리 수행수준의 개인위생(p<0.01)과 유의적인

  • 액상화는 지진이후 동반되는 2차 피해로서 국내의 경우 현대적 지진 관측이 실시된 이후에는 액상화 현상이 거의 보고되지 않았다. 그러나 최근 한반도 남동부에 위치한 양산단층 인근에서 2016년 9월 12일 규모 5.8의 경주지진과 2017년 11월 15일 규모 5.4의 포항 지진이 발생하였고, 포항 지진 당시 최초로 액상화 현상이 발생하여 한반도 또한 액상화의 안전지대가 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강과 인접해 있으며 양산단층이 통과하는 김해시의 액상화 위험성을 예측하기 위하여 김해시 지역의 표준관입시험(274공) 결과를 바탕으로 각 행정구역과 양산단층과의 거리 산정, 지진규모 5.0, 6.5에 따른 최대지반가속도 값을 도출, 액상화 가능지수 산출, 지리정보체계를 이용한 크리깅의 순차적 연산을 통하여 액상화로 인한 시설물 피해 평가를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 지진 규모 5.0 적용 시 김해시 액상화 발생 지역과 시설물 피해는 미미한 것으로 나타났으나 지진 규모 6.5 적용 시 낙동강 일대에 근접한 행정구역에 액상화 현상이 넓게 분포하였고, 시설물 피해도 상대적으로 크게 발생하는 것으로 나타났다.

  • 수문환경 변화에 영향을 미치는 요인을 시계열적으로 분석하고, 도시화에 수반되는 물수지 변화를 평가하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면, 다음과 같이 기술할 수 있다. 먼저, 광주천 유역의 하천유출 특성은 6월$\sim$9월 사이에 함양된 저유량에 의해 하천의 기저유출량이 유지되고, 8월에 첨두유량이, 5월에 최저 유량이 나타난다. 도시화 초기단계의 지하수 함양은 강수량대비 46.1%였으나, 1900년대에는 26.5%로 감소하고, 1990년대에는 29.9% 그리고 2010년대에는 27.8%로 감소할 것으로 전망된다. 한편, 직접 유출량은 1960년대에 강수량대비 9.6%였던 것이 1990년대에는 16.2% 그리고 2010년대에는 18.3%로 증가할 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 상태가 지속적으로 유지될 경우, 물수지의 왜곡은 더욱 심화되어 도시형 홍수의 빈발과 광주천의 기저유출량의 감소로 인한 건천화가 더욱 가속화할 것으로 생각한다. 이와 같은 도시수분 현상에 대한 시계열적인 연구는 도시의 재개발 또는 환경정비에 있어서 과거 수문환경을 인식하고, 왜곡된 현상을 파악함으로서 자연친화적 토지이용에 필요한 정보를 제공한다는 점에서 의의가 있으며, 인간활동과 자연환경 간의 상호관계를 규명했다는 점에서 지리학적 연구의 가치가 있다고 할 수 있다.
