This study was carried out to investigate appropriate processing conditions for expanded rice hulls to be used as a medium material in nutrient cultures. The water holding capacity of expanded rice hulls produced by using a domestic grinder with 8 mm gap and 3 mm cutter height was 271.0, and the bulk density and CEC were 0.19g·m-3 and 37.0 cmol·kg-1, respectively. These values are higher than those of perilte. However, geometric mean diameter (GMD) of expanded rice hulls was 1.01mm which was smaller than that of perlite, indicating unfavorable porosity. After supplying nutrient solution, the faster water percolation in expanded rice than perlite required more frequent water supply. There was no significant difference in tomato fruit yield between expanded rice hull and perlite. The pH increase and the lack of nitrogen in early stage of culture are to be solved in the future.

현재 우리나라에는 63,000개가 넘는 농업수리시설 구조물이 있으며, 그 중 70%가 넘는 시설물이 저수지이다. 이러한 저수지의 주 목적은 갈수시 안정적인 관개용수 공급과 하류의 생활용수를 공급함에 있다. 특히, 농업용 저수지의 경우에는 농번기에 물을 충족하게 공급함과 동시에 생활용수 및 유지용수의 공급이 동시에 이루어 질 수 있도록 고려하여야 하는 특수성을 가지고 있다. 그러나, 20세기 후반부터 우리나라에는 기후변화에 따른 전 지구적인 온난화 추세를 상회하는 경향을 보이고 있고, 강수량 및 집중호우의 증가추세도 보고되고 있다. 기온과 강수량이 과거와 다른 변화를 보임에 따라 물 공급의 안정성을 확보하기 위해 저수지를 통한 수자원 확보가 이루어지고 있으나, 용수공급능력이 어떻게 변화할 것인지에 대한 정량적 정보가 부족한 상태이다. 또한, 논벼의 생육에 있어 저수지의 적절한 용수공급은 필수적이기 때문에 저수지의 효율적 운영이 필요한 시점이다. 따라서 농업용수에 대한 기후변화의 영향을 이해하고 안정적이고 지속가능한 작물생산에 부정적인 역할을 최소화하기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 1981년부터 2100년까지 기후변화에 따른 농업용 저수지의 용수공급능력을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 각 도별 대표 저수지를 한발빈도 10년을 기준으로, 그 이상인 저수지와 그 미만인 저수지로 각각 선정하였다. 다음으로 미래 기상자료는 IPCC 5차 보고서에서 제시할 RCP(Representative Concentration Pathways) 기반의 GCM/RCM 자료를 기상청으로부터 제공받아 활용하였다. 이 기상자료를 이용하여 물수지방법으로 현재저수량을 산정하고, 기준저수량을 현재저수량 중 하위 10% 저수량으로 가정하여 기준저수량에 미치지 못하는 기간과 저수량을 도출하였다. 산정된 자료를 활용하여 한발빈도별 농업용 저수지의 용수공급능력 불능을 파악하고자 하였다.

농업용수에 대한 주요 물 공급원은 17,000 여개 이상의 시설이 운영되고 있는 농업용 저수지라 할 수 있다. 따라서 농업용수에 대한 갈수 상황 모니터링을 위해서는 농업용 저수지에 대한 모니터링이 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 농업용 저수지의 용수공급능력 평가 및 모니터링을 위한 방안으로 농업용 저수지의 현재 저수량과 해당 저수지에 요구되는 용수 수요량을 비교함으로써 현재의 저수량으로 향후 공급 가능한 기간을 추정하여 제시하는 방안을 검토하였다. 이를 위해서는 농업용 저수지의 일별 수요량을 추정할 필요가 있으며, 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 수자원장기종합계획(국토교통부, 2016)에서 제시된 논 용수 단위용수량 자료를 이용하였다. 논 용수 수요 추정 과정에서 제시된 수계별 수리답 면적 및 수요량을 이용하여 수계별 수리답의 단위용수량을 추정하여 활용하였다. 수계별 수리답의 단위용수량 추정 결과와 중권역별 논 용수에 대한 일별 수요 패턴을 이용하여 1월 1일부터 12월 31일까지 일 단위로 필요한 단위면적당 용수수요를 산정하였다. 산정된 일별 용수수요를 이용하여 1일부터 180일가지 누적할 경우에 대한 필요 용수수요량을 산정하였으며, 이를 이용하여 농업용 저수지의 용수공급능력을 평가하는 방안을 제시하였다. 용수공급능력을 모니터링하고자 하는 농업용 저수지의 수혜면적에 단위면적당 용수수요를 적용할 경우 저수지별로 필요한 일별 수요량 및 누적 수요량을 추정할 수 있으며, 이를 해당 저수지의 현재 저수량과 비교함으로써 향후 공급 가능한 기간을 추정할 수 있다. 추정된 공급 가능기간은 해당 저수지의 용수공급능력 모니터링 결과로 활용할 수 있으며, 이를 갈수관리를 위한 농업용 저수지 모니터링에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The nonpoint pollution source (NPS) is irregular in the amount of generated and runoff. About 70% of the water pollution sources in Korea are NPS. Most of the rural areas are small towns with less than 50 families. This is where sewerage supply is poor. This is where the domestic swage of the house flows directly into the small stream. This study investigated the amount and concentration of domestic swage. And investigated NPS for public officials. We have suggested an improvement plan here. Local government officials lack the concept of NPS. Rural residents also do not know about NPS. Therefore, we proposed NPS public relations and education linked to public administration. This is an extension of the national budget and interest. The domestic swage is discharged at about 272 liters per day in a house. We proposed the introduction of small facilities. If the capacity remains, it is suggested to link to cattle shed, pigsty and so on. The BOD, COD, TN, TP, and SS concentrations were all high. This suggested a reduction in concentration in combination with natural water. Finally, NPS facilities were proposed to be put into rural areas. And it was determined that continuous monitoring was necessary. The results of this study were expected to be applied to NPS management.

Ethiopia is branded as the Water Tower of Africa because of its abundant inland water bodies that may be used sustainably to boost the economy. This review article's goal is to examine the current status and future potential of Ethiopia's fisheries, with a special focus on reservoirs. There are 200 known fish species (194 native, 40 endemic, and 11 exotic) in in Ethiopia's inland water. Ethiopia's fish production has increased by a factor of more than five in the past three decades (3,500 tons in 1983 to 15,681 tons in 2000 and 18,058 tons in 2010). However, fish produced in reservoirs is too low (8,059 t/year). The current fish harvests from reservoirs are significantly below the predicted potential yield, accounting for only 35% of the calculated fish production capacity. In this review, 14 potential reserves were revealed. A total of 48 fish species have been reported in these, of which 26 species (or around 54%) are present in Alwero reservoir. 19 of the 48 species that have been officially recognized belong to the Cyprinidae family and made up nearly 40% of the fish population in Ethiopian reservoirs. There has been, however, a decline in the productivity of Ethiopia's reservoir fish. Hence, actively start fishing in the numerous reservoirs that have been neglected yet, link the potential of fisheries and the benefits of the fish farming supply chain, let's begin building several other reservoirs similar to the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam and beginning mechanized-based fish harvesting.

최근 국내에서는 기후변화로 인해 지역별·계절별 강수편차가 커지고 있으며, 이로 인해 상습가뭄지역(충남 서부, 경기 남부, 전라 등)의 가뭄 피해가 확대되는 등 수자원의 안정적인 공급을 위협하고 있다. 실제로 지난 2014-2015년 발생한 가뭄으로 인해 충남·경기지역 일부에서 수 개월간 생·공용수 공급이 제한된 바 있다. 기후변화에 대비한 국내 수자원의 추가 확보 및 효율적인 활용 방안의 필요성이 증가하고 있으나, 신규 수공시설물(댐, 저수지 등)을 건설하기 힘든 국내 개발 여건상 기존 수공시설물을 최대한 활용하기 위한 다양한 방안이 추진되고 있다. 기존 댐의 용수공급 능력을 재평가하거나, 댐·보 시설물의 연계운영을 통한 용수공급능력의 분석은 대부분 다목적댐 및 용수공급댐을 대상으로 수행되어 왔으며, 발전용댐을 활용한 용수공급능력 평가는 상대적으로 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 최신화된 데이터 및 발전용댐 특성을 고려한 객관적인 평가방법을 통해 발전용댐의 용수공급능력을 새롭게 평가할 필요가 있다. 당초 수력발전이라는 단일목적으로 건설된 발전용댐은 다목적댐 대비 구조적 특성과 운영 측면에서 상이한 부분이 많아, 용수공급능력 평가 시 발전용댐의 특성을 고려할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에는 발전용댐의 구조 및 운영특성을 고려하여 발전용댐 별 유형(저류형 및 비저류형)을 구분하는 방안을 제안하고, 발전용댐 유형별 용수공급능력 산정 방안을 제시하였다. 제안한 기법은 북한강수계에 위치한 발전용댐에 적용하여 정량적인 용수공급능력을 평가하였다. 본 연구는 국내에서 연구가 미흡하였던 발전용댐을 대상으로 댐 이수능력을 검토하였으며, 향후 국가 수자원 계획 수립에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

314 pumping test data of the National Groundwater Monitoring Wells (NGMWs) are analyzed to present statistical properties of fractured-rock and alluvial aquifers of Korea such as distribution of hydraulic conductivity, empirical relations between transmissivity and specific capacity, and time-drawdown patterns of pumping and recovery test. The mean hydraulic conductivity of alluvial aquifers (1.26 m/day) is 17 times greater than that of fractured-rock aquifers (0.076 m/day). Hydraulic conductivity of fracture-rock aquifers ranges in value over 4 orders of magnitude which coincide with representative values of fractured crystalline rocks and shows distinctive differences among rock types with the lowest values for metamorphic rocks and the highest values for sedimentary rocks. In consideration of the estimated transmissivity with some simplifying assumptions, it Is likely that $32\%$ of groundwater flow for NGMWs would occur through fractured-rock aquifers and $68\%$ through alluvial aquifers. Based on 314 pairs of data, empirical relations between transmissivity and specific capacity are presented for both fractured-rock and alluvial aquifers. Depending on time-drawdown patterns during pumping and recovery test, NGMWs are classified into $4\~5$ types. Most of NCMWs $(83.7\%)$ exhibit the recharge boundary type, which call be attributed to sources of water supply such as streams adjacent to the pumping well, the vertical groundwater flux between fractured-rock and the alluvial aquifers, and the delayed yield associated with gravity drainage occurring in unconfined aquifers.

A methodology for the probabilistic determination of active storage capacity of an impounding reservoir is proposed with due considerations to the durations and return periods of the low flow series at the reservoir site. For more reliable probabilistic analysis the best-fit stochastic generation model of Monte Carlo type was first selected for the generation of monthly flow series, the models tested being the Month Carlo Model based on the month-by-month flow series (Monte Carlo-A Type), Monte Carlo Model based on the standardized sequential monthly flow series (Monte Carlo-B Type), and the Thomas-Fiering Model. Monte Carlo-B Model was final1y selected and synthetic monthly flows of 200 years at Hong Cheon dam site were generated. With so generated 200 years' monthly flows partial duration series of low flows were developed for various durations. Each low flow series was further processed by a nonsequential mass analysis for specified draft rates. This mass analysis furnished the storage-draft-recurrence interval relationship which gives the reservoir storage requirement for a specified water demand from the reservoir during a drought of given return period. Illustrations are given on the application of these results in analyzing the water supply capacity of a particlar reservoir, existing or proposed.

Recently, the regulations of the Local and Global for a variety of air pollution prevention has been enhanced by the steep rise in fuel oil prices. So, the appearance of Gas Fuelled Ships became necessary. In this study, we configured a regasification system which uses Eglycol water as a heating medium to evaporate before being supply fuel to the DF engine, then we analysed the system properties according to the Eglycol water mixing ratio. The results were as follows. When pressure, temperature, and flux of natural gas(NG) which are supplied to DF engines are uniformly kept, the higher mixing ratio of Eglycol is, the lower mixing specific heat of Eglycol water. And the cycle flux and electric power were 1.65 and 1.54 times more required. respectively, than water was used as the heating medium. Basic variables including mass flux according to the mixing ratio of Eglycol water, required electric power of operating fluid pumps, the temperature of natural gas which is supplied to the engine, and the heat exchanger's capacity were drawn from the gotten results.
