간단한 모형시추공을 이용한 전기전도도 측정실험을 실시하고 이로부터 시추공에서의 수리상수 결정에 관련된 제반기초 환경을 검증하고 실험에 의한 모델방정식을 유도하였다. 실험은 상대적으로 높은 염도를 공내수로 하고 증류수를 지하수를 사용하여, 지하수의 유입과 유출되는 유량을 일정하게 유지한 상태에서 전기전도도를 측정하는 것으로 이루어졌다. 관찰의 주 대상은 지하수의 유량, 공내수와 지하수 사이의 염도차 및 밀도차에 따른 공내에서의 전기전도도 변화 양상에 있었다. 실험결과, 공내에서의 시간에 따른 전기전도도 변화가 매우 일정한 양상으로 나타남을 보였으며, 유량과 전기전도도 변화율 사이에 양호한 상관관계가 얻어졌다. 이 결과는 향후 추가될 일반적인 수리상수와 검층수리 상수들의 비교연구로 모델방정식에 대한 검증이 이루어진다면, 희석모델에 근거한 전기전도도검층 기법이 수리 상수 결정을 위한 효과적인 방법이 될 수 있음을 보여 주었다.

발파의 영향으로 생기는 굴착손상대(Excavation Damaged Zone, EDZ) 영역은 응력재분배 등으로 응력이 변화하며 처분장이 위치하는 깊은 심도에서는 그 영향이 두드러진다. 특히 균열생성으로 인한 투수특성 증가는 지하수 유입량 증가 및 방사성 핵종의 유출 가능성을 증가시키므로 반드시 고려되어야 하는 영역이다. 본 연구에서는 FLAC2D Version 7.0을 이용하여 EDZ가 없는 경우(No EDZ), EDZ가 있으며 거리에 따라 일정한 물성을 갖는 경우(Uniform EDZ), EDZ가 있으며 거리와 위치에 따라 무작위 물성을 갖는 경우(Random EDZ) 3가지로 나누어 비교하여 손상대 유무에 따른 수리-역학적 복합거동 분석을 통해 안정성 해석을 진행하였다. 그 결과 터널 변위의 경우 Random EDZ에서 No EDZ에 비해 평균 423 %, Uniform EDZ에 비해 16 % 크게 나타났다. 지하수 유입량은 Random EDZ에서 No EDZ에 비해 최대 17.3 %, Uniform EDZ에 비해 10.8 % 증가하였다. 굴착 후 응력재분배에 의해 터널 주변의 투수계수는 터널 벽면 모서리 부분과 터널 천정 부근에서 최대 10배 이상 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 측압계수가 증가함에 따라 터널 벽면 주변의 투수계수는 부분적으로 증가하지만 터널 전면에서의 지하수 유입량은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. FLAC3D를 이용한 역학적 해석에서도 FLAC2D와 유사한 결과를 보였으며 터널 굴착 진행에 따른 소성대의 발생으로 인한 약간의 차이를 확인할 수 있었다.

우리나라의 대표적 딸기 수막재배지 중 하나인 청주시 가덕면 상대리 일대에서는 수막재배용 지하수 이용량이 몇가지 방법으로 산정된 바 있다. 이러한 지하수 이용량 산정 방법 중에는 수막재배 사용 후 배출되는 배수로의 유량을 근거로 하는 것이 있으며, 이러한 방법은 배수로의 물이 모두 사용 후 배출되는 지하수로만 구성되어 있다는 가정 하에 적용된다. 연구지역에서 지하수가 사용된 후 무심천으로 유출되기 직전의 최종 배수로는 비포장 상태이며 하천 가까이에 나란히 개설되어 있다. 이러한 상황에서는 배수로의 물이 인근 하천수의 침투 유입에 의한 영향을 받을 가능성이 있다. 이 연구는 상대리 지역에서와 유사한 하천과 배수로의 구조 및 형태를 가지는 경우에, 최종 배수로의 배출수가 수질의 관점에서 하천수의 영향을 받고 있는지의 여부를 검토해 보았다. 고려된 수질 요소는 현장 수온과 pH, EC 값, 실내 분석에 의한 이온 함량과 수질 유형이며, 현장 측정 및 시료 채취 기간은 2012년 2월부터 2015년 2월까지이다. 검토 결과, 배출수는 지하수의 평균 수질을 반영하지 않으며, 오히려 하천수의 수질을 많이 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 이로 보아, 연구지역에서와 같이 배수로가 인근 하천 가까이에서 비포장 상태를 유지하는 경우에는, 배출수의 유량 측정을 지하수 이용량 산정에 직접적으로 이용하는 데에 많은 주의가 필요한 것으로 판단되었다. 이 연구에서 배출수의 수온은 주변 대기 온도에 매우 민감하게 반응하여 변하기 때문에, 하천수의 영향을 정량적으로 판단하기는 부적절한 요소인 것으로 나타났다. 향후 배출수 내 지하수와 하천수의 혼합 비율을 정량적으로 산정하는 연구가 병행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Reference concepts for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel and the current status of underground rock laboratory were studied. An analysis to simulate the deep disposal of spent nuclear fuel in saturated rock mass was conducted. Main input parameters for numerical study were determined based on the KBS-3 concept. A series of results showed that the temperature distribution around a cavern reached the maximum value at about 10 years after the emplacement of spent fuel. The maximum temperature at the surface of canister was more than about 12$0^{\circ}C$ at about 4 years. This temperature was not much higher than the temperature criteria to meet the performance criteria of an artificial barrier in the KBS-3 concept. The maximum upward displacement due to the heat generation of spent fuel was about 0.9cm at about 10 years after the emplacement of spent fuel. It turned out that the vertical displacement became smaller with the decrease in heat generation of a canister. The quantity of groundwater inflow into a disposal tunnel increased by about 1.6 times at 20 years after the emplacement of spent fuel with the increase of pore pressure around a cavern.

The Imgok Creek is located in the Gangreung coal field, which has been known that sulfides are more abundant than other coal fields in Korea, and it has been severly contaminated by acid mine drainage (AMD) discharging from the abandoned coal mines, such as the Youngdong, the Dongduk and the Waryong coal mines. The purposes of this study are to synthetically assess the contamination of natural water, stream sediment and cultivated soils, and to provide the basic data for AMD treatment. Geochemical samples were collected in December, 1996 (dry season) and April, 1997 (after three day's rainfall). TDS of the Youngdong mine water was remarkably higher than those of other mine waters. In the Imgok Creek, concentrations of most elements, except Fe decreased with distance by dilution caused by the inflow of uncontaminated tributaries. From the results of NAMDI and $I_{geo}$ calculation, the Youngdong coal mine was the main contamination source of the study area. Groundwater pollution was not yet confirmed in this study and the paddy and farm land soils were also not yet contaminated by mining activity based on the pollution index ranging from 0.27 to 0.47.

Cheonggye-cheon is a partly restored urban stream located in central Seoul. We monitored fecal contamination using three different fecal indicators, total coliforms (TC), fecal coliforms (FC) and E. coli, to assess differences in each indicator on days of varying weather conditions. Presumptive TC, FC and E. coli colonies were identified by their 16S rRNA sequences. The results showed that enumeration of E. coli provided a better reflection of fecal contamination of the stream than TC and FC. The main sources of contamination were the inflow of fecal-polluted groundwater from the vicinity of a subway line and two inflowing streams. The fecal contamination was worsened on days with heavy rain because untreated sewage from a collecting facility flowed into the stream. Moreover, growth potential of fecal indicator (E. coli) in situ induced by algal exudates was measured. Our results suggest that an appropriate standard based on E. coli rather than TC and FC should be established for improving water quality management strategies of Cheonggye-cheon in the future.

In this study, thermal-hydrological-chemical modeling for the alteration of a bentonite buffer is carried out using a simulation code TOUGHREACT. The modeling results show that the water saturation of bentonite steadily increases and finally the bentonite is fully saturated after 10 years. In addition, the temperature rapidly increases and stabilizes after 0.5 year, exhibiting a constant thermal gradient as a function of distance from the copper tube. The change of thermal-hydrological conditions mainly results in the alteration of anhydrite and calcite. Anhydrite and calcite are dissolved along with the inflow of groundwater. They then tend to precipitate in the vicinity of the copper tube due to its high temperature. This behavior induces a slight decrease in porosity and permeability of bentonite near the copper tube. Furthermore, this study finds that the diffusion coefficient can significantly affect the alteration of anhydrite and calcite, which causes changes in the hydrological properties of bentonite such as porosity and permeability. This study may facilitate the safety assessment of high-level radioactive waste repositories.

Mountainous areas cover more than 70% of Korea. With the rapid increase in tunnel construction, tunnel-collapse incidents and excessive deformation are occurring more frequently. In addition, longer tunnel structures are being constructed, and geologically weaker ground conditions are increasingly being encountered during the construction process. Tunnels constructed under weak ground conditions exhibit long-term deformation behavior that leads to tunnel instability. This study analyzes the behavior of the bottom region of tunnels under geological conditions of long-term deformation. Long-term deformation causes various types of damage, such as cracks and ridges in the packing part of tunnels, as well as cracks and upheavals in the pavement of tunnels. We observed rapid tunnel over-displacement due to the squeezing of a fault rupture zone after the inflow of a large amount of groundwater. Excessive increments in the support member strength resulted in damage to the support and tunnel bottom. In addition, upward infiltration pressure on the tunnel road was found to cause severe pavement damage. Furthermore, smectite (a highly expandable mineral), chlorite, illite, and hematite, were also observed. Soil samples and rock samples containing clay minerals were found to have greater expansibility than general soil samples. Considering these findings, countermeasures against the deformation of tunnel bottoms are required.

터널 굴착 중 발생하는 지하수는 터널 시공성 및 안정성에 중요한 영향을 끼친다. 따라서 터널의 굴착 중 발생하는 지하수의 유입을 감소시키기 위한 적절한 차수그라우팅이 필요하다. 대부분 터널 설계단계에서는 Pre Grouting을 적용하고 있으나 그라우팅 재료 및 차수효과의 적정성에 대한 분석은 미미하다. 본 연구에서는 현장의 차수 그라우팅 시공사례를 분석하고, 실측된 시공자료를 바탕으로 시공개선사항 및 그라우팅 영역의 투수계수 감소를 고려한 수치해석을 통해 차수효과를 분석하였다.

In Japan, more than 80 % of soybean growing area is converted fields and excess water is one of the major problems in soybean production. For example, recent study (Yoshifuji et al., 2016) suggested that in the fields of shallow groundwater level (GWL) (< 1m depth), rising GWL even in a short period (e.g. 1 day) causes inhibition of soybean growth. Thus it becomes more and more important to predict GWL and soil moisture in detail. In addition to conventional surface drainage and underdrain, FOEAS (Farm Oriented Enhancing Aquatic System), which is expected to control GWL in fields adequately, has been developed recently. In this study we attempted to predict GWL and soil moisture condition at the converted field with FOEAS in Biwa lake reclamation area, Shiga prefecture, near the center of the main island of Japan. Two dimensional HYDRUS model (Simuinek et al., 1999) based on common Richards' equation, was used for the calculation of soil water movement. The calculation domain was considered to be 10 and 5 meter in horizontal and vertical direction, respectively, with two layers, i.e. 20cm-thick of plowed layer and underlying subsoil layer. The center of main underdrain (10 cm in diameter) was assumed to be 5 meter from the both ends of the domain and 10-60cm depth from the surface in accordance with the field experiment. The hydraulic parameters of the soil was estimated with the digital soil map in "Soil information web viewer" and Agricultural soil-profile physical properties database, Japan (SolphyJ) (Kato and Nishimura, 2016). Hourly rainfall depth and daily potential evapo-transpiration rate data were given as the upper boundary condition (B.C.). For the bottom B.C., constant upward flux, which meant the inflow flux to the field from outside, was given. Seepage face condition was employed for the surrounding of the underdrain. Initial condition was employed as GWL=60cm. Then we compared the simulated and observed results of volumetric water content at depth of 15cm and GWL. While the model described the variation of GWL well, it tended to overestimate the soil moisture through the growing period. Judging from the field condition, and observed data of soil moisture and GWL, consideration of soil structure (e.g. cracks and clods) in determination of soil hydraulic parameters at the plowed layer may improve the simulation results of soil moisture.
