The usages of urban riverine areas for the Gapchoen and Yudungcheon in Daejoen City were evaluated by analyzing riverbed characteristics and water quality and by surveying the status of the floodplain usage including questionnaires of people visiting the rivers. Both rivers appear to be stable with insignificant bed changes as the riverbeds are dominated by gravels. Water qualities of both rivers have been improved significantly over the past decade although there are quite large seasonal fluctuations, which is common in most rivers in Korea. The results of floodplain usage analyses show that Gapcheon is dominated with static uses (>70%) such as promenades and resting facilities, while Yudungcheon by dynamic uses (>44%) such as sports facilities. Overall, both rivers require better plans for riverine area usage management considering a balance between the dynamic uses and the static uses such as natural observation places for education and habitats for birds and fish in the rivers. The questionnaire survey results indicate that overall the present status of both rivers are satisfactory and that water quality improvement is one of the key factors to enhance the value of the riverine areas. Future river restoration should be conducted by taking into account the characteristics of urban rivers in harmony with surrounding natural sceneries.

Land use types within a watershed closely are related with the water quality characteristics of receiving water bodies. Despite of a numerous studies suggesting a strong relationship between water quality and land use, there have been increasing concerns about the geographical variation and a lack of spatial integration in that relationship, which are essential to implementing these findings into land use planning and management. In the meantime, edges mediate the material flux between adjacent systems. This mediating effect of edges is strongly related to the complexity of their shapes. Land use activities within a watershed have a direct impact on the water quality of adjacent aquatic systems, and hydrological processes carry residuals from watershed into adjacent aquatic ecosystems through the edges. Therefore, the geometry of reservoirs theoretically affects the relationship between land uses in the watershed and the quality of receiving bodies of water. In this light, this study integrates the geo-spatial dimensions of land uses in the watershed using GIS and landscape indices in order to explore the relationship between land uses and water quality. Water quality characteristics, land uses and geometry of 133 randomly sampled reservoirs were correlated, based on buffer zones and types of reservoirs. The findings showed that land uses, particularly urban land uses, significantly affect water quality characteristics including BOD, COD, TN and TP, and geometry of reservoirs reduces the concentration of pollutant and nutrients in reservoirs. One of results indicates that the relationship between land use and water quality and effects of spatial dimension may vary with types of reservoirs and pollutants. These results suggest that lakeshore areas are important, particularly for TN reduction and call for a caution to land use activities nearby shoreline areas for sustaining better water quality.

본 연구에서는 (1) 선진외국 및 기타국가의 농업용수 수질기준을 검토하고 (2) 선진외국과 국내의 농업용수 수질기준을 항목별로 심층 비교 분석하여, 현행 농업용수 수질기준의 적정성을 평가하였다. 또한 (3) 국내 농업용수 수질기준의 문제점을 파악하고 추가로 기준설정이 요구되는 수질기준 항목을 도출하였다. 우리나라의 농업용수 수질기준은 따로 마련되어 있는 것이 아니라, 수질환경기준의 4등급에 해당하는데, 이는 관리목적의 기준으로 이수목적의 농업용수로 필요한 항목들이 누락되어 있는 실정이다. 예를 들어 캐나다의 경우 농약과 비료에 의한 오염 등을 고려하여 관개용수 수질기준을 제시하고 있으며 일본의 경우 우리나라와 달리 EC, Zn, 그리고 Cu항목을 설정해 두고 있다. FAO에서도 주요항목으로 염도와 토양 침투율 그리고 특정이온의 독성에 대해 제시하고 있으며 중국의 경우 벼에 대한 농업용수 수질기준을 따로 제시하고 있는 실정이다. 국내 농업용수 수질기준의 추가항목 필요성은 수질환경기준의 8항목과 사람의 건강보호항목 9항목으로 나누어 세밀하게 검토한 결과, 국내 농업용수 수질기준에 추가되어야 할 수질항목으로 나트륨, 전기전도도, 미생물항목. 그리고 5개의 미량원소 (염소, 붕소, 구리, 철, 아연)가 제안되었다. 전기전도도 (EC) 는 염도의 지표로 식물뿌리 주변에 염농도가 높으면 수분결핍과 이온 독성을 나타낸다. 하수처리수를 재이용하여 농업용수로 이용할 경우 분변성 오염은 공중위생상 문제가 되며 병원성 미생물의 공존가능성을 시사하기 때문에 미생물항목이 필요하다. 또한, 염소, 붕소, 구리, 철, 아연의 5개의 원소는 이미 선진국에서는 기준설정이 되어 있는 수질항목들로, 식물생장에 필수원소들이지만 일정량 이상이 되면 식물독성을 유발하는 원소로 제시되었다. 우리나라의 농업용수 수질기준이 농작물을 보호하고, 나아가 인체건강을 고려하는 실질적인 이수목적의 기준이 되기 위해서는 추가로 제안된 수질항목들에 대한 기준이 선정된 필요가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

Korean water quality guidelines for agricultural were derived to protect agricultural water uses according to the Canadian methodology. The adverse effect of heavy metals in agricultural water was of concern due to its persistence, bioaccumulation and ecotoxicity to crop plants. The ecotoxicity data of cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc were collected for the crops grown in Korea, and used to estimate the species maximum acceptable toxicant concentration (SMATC), which corresponds to the water quality guideline. Values of irrigation per year and soil bulk density were revised to reflect the Korean situation. The estimated guideline values for cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc were 0.01, 0.5, 0.1, and 1.0 mg/L, respectively. These values are in agreement with the agricultural water quality guidelines of foreign countries and current Korean water quality standard for the protection of public health. Current water quality standards in agricultural uses were for management of public water resource, and was not prepared to protect crop plants from contaminants. The results of this study will be a basis for the designation of Korean water quality guidelines for the protection of agricultural water uses in the future.

가정용수의 용도별 사용량은 주거형태, 거주자 생활양식, 주택구조 등의 내부적인 요인과 온도, 날씨, 수도요금 등과 같은 외부요인들의 영향을 받게 된다. 장기적으로는 거주민의 생활양식, 주거형태, 수도관련 시설의 변화에 따라 사용량이 점진적으로 변화하게 되며, 단기적으로는 기온이나 가뭄과 같은 기후조건이나 절수정책과 같은 인위적인 영향에 의해 사용량이 크게 변화하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 가정에서 사용하고 있는 변기 및 세탁기 용수의 물 사용량 특성을 파악하기 위하여 전국을 대상으로 실측자료를 모니터링하고 각 사용량의 기준이 되는 원단위 (${\ell}pcd$; liter per capita day)를 도출하였으며 향후 가정용수 사용량 예측을 위하여 변기 및 세탁기 용수를 대상으로 오차항이 자기상관을 따르는 시계열 회귀모형을 이용하였다. 분석결과, 자기회귀오차 모형으로 변기 및 세탁기 용수의 사용량을 71% 정도 설명할 수 있다.

Many kinds of generation systems have been developed to use ocean energy. Among these, with the use of an oscillating water column (OWC) for power generation is attracting attention. The OWC-type wave power generation system converts wave energy into electricity by operating a generator turbine with the oscillating water level in a column of water. There are two ways to convert wave power into electricity using an OWC. One uses a cross-flow turbine using the water level inside the OWC. The other method uses the flow of air in a Wells turbine, which depends on the water level. An experiment was carried out using a 2-D wave tank in order to minimize the number of empirical tests. The design factors were taken from Koo et al. (2012) and the experimental environment assumed by free surface motion. This paper deals with characteristics of two types of wave energy conversion systems combine with a breakwater. One model uses an air-driven Wells turbine and a cross-flow water turbine. The other type uses a cross-flow water turbine. Wave energy converters with OWCs have mostly been studied using air-driven Wells turbines. The efficiency of the cross-flow turbine was about 15% higher than that of the other model, and the water level of the OWC internal chamber for the cross-flow water turbine and air-driven Wells turbine was less than about 40% lower than the one using only the cross-flow water turbine.

For effective watershed management, we must understand the complex and dynamic relationships of land uses and water quality. Despite numerous studies investigated the relationships between water quality and land use, there are increasing concerns on the geographical variation and lack of spatial integrations in previous studies. We investigated the relationships between land use and water quality characteristics in the Hwa-Sung estuarine reservoir watershed in Korea, which has spatially integrated land uses. The spatial variations of these relationships were also examined using zonal analysis. Water quality parameter were correlated positively with residential and forest and negatively with paddy and upland especially during base flow in the near buffer zone. During storm flow, correlation between land use and water quality was less apparent. Population and livestock density was correlated well to water quality parameter than just number of population and livestock. Relationships across zones, distinguished by distances from streams, were inconsistent and erratic, suggesting that the relationships between remote land uses and water quality may be affected more significantly by sub-basin characteristics than by the land use itself. The watersheds studied are mainly non-urban and their land uses are similar to typical watershed of other estuarine reservoirs, therefore, the correlation developed in this study might be helpful to manage other watersheds of estuarine reservoir. This methodology could be applied to other areas where the watershed characteristics are not significantly different from the study area.

본 연구는 5년간의 세탁기 및 화장실 용수의 실측 자료를 기반으로 표본가구의 가구 및 주택, 월 특성들을 나타내는 변수들을 조사하여 위의 두 가지 용수에 대한 수요예측모형을 개발하는 것이다. 그러나 반응변수인 세탁기 및 화장실 용수의 분포를 확인한 결과 양의 왜도, 즉, 왼쪽으로 치우친 형태로 정규분포를 따르지 않기 때문에 다중회귀모형 적용 시 추정치가 편의되는 문제가 있다. 따라서 이에 대한 대안으로 세탁기 및 화장실 용수 수요 예측모형을 와이블 및 대수정규회귀모형으로 가정하고, 3가지 모형을 적용하여 최적모형을 제시하고 이에 대한 해석을 제시하였다. 그 결과 와이블 분포를 가정한 회귀모형이 가장 적합하다고 나타났으며, 이에 대한 각 용수별 예측모형을 제시하고 해석하였다. 그 결과 두 용수 모두 공통적으로 실거주인원이 용수사용에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 인자로 나타났다. 분석결과를 토대로 세탁기 및 화장실 용수의 수요를 예측시 실거주인원에 대한 고려가 필요하다는 점을 시사하며, 예측모형을 통한 관리부서에서 장기적으로 물 수요관리에 대한 정책 수립, 수도 관련 시설 규격 및 기자재 결정 등의 기초자료로 활용 할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다. 추후 연구에서는 1인 가구 등과 같은 실태를 반영한 독립변수들을 고려한 실측연구 등이 필요할 것이다.
