The bed evolution of the stretch of the River Rhine between km-812.5 and km-821.5 is characterised by general bed degradation as a result of the river training works and dredging activities of the last two centuries. The degradation of the river bed affects the water levels, and so the navigation conditions. To combat the erosion of the river bed with the aim to keep up the shipping traffic and to avoid the ecological system damages due to water level reductions, sand-gravel-mixtures were added to the river (so called artificial grain feeding activities). This paper presents the results of an application of a graded sediment transport model in order to study morpholodynamical characteristics due to artificial grain feeding activities in the river stretch. The finite element code TELEMAC2D was used for flow calculation by solving the 2D shallow water equation on non-structured grids. The sediment transport module SISYPHE has been developed for graded sediment transport using a multiple layer model. The needs to apply such graded sediment transport approaches to study morphological processes in the domain are discussed. The calculations have been carried out for the case of middle water flow and different size-fraction distributions. The results show that the grain feeding process could be well simulated by the model.

The estuary has a very complex coastline and bottom topography. Before the close of floodgate, the Keum river estuary was deposited with sediment from the Keum river, created bythe construction of the Keum river estuary dike. So, a periodical dredging is necessary to assure water depth for boat entry and departure to Kunsan port. Theof this study is to find the change of tidal current of M2tide and the topography before and after construction at the Geum River estuary dike. The change of water depth is investigated by digitizing the sea map (No.305) of Kunsan port, which was edited by National Oceanographic Research Institute. The calculated co-range and co-tidal charts of M2tide before the dike construction are similar to the observed ones. Therefore, the amplitude and phase after construction at Geum River estuary dike increases compared to before construction at Geum River estuary dike. The scour occurred in the A-A' section.

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.

자연하천은 하천개수사업, 유역의 토지이용 변화, 댐 및 저수지 건설, 골재채취 등 여러 가지 요인에 의해 하상이 변동하게 된다. 이러한 하상변동은 하천정비 및 다양한 습지계획, 안정하도 유지관리를 위해 매우 중요한 사항이다. 본 연구에서는 골재채취로 인해 저하된 하상이 점차 안정화 되어가고 있는 금강 및 미호천 국가하천 구간을 대상으로 하천측량, 하상재료 채취 분석을 실시하고, 이를 토대로 하도 형성을 지배하는 하도특성량 분석과 수치모형에 의해 장래 하상변동을 예측하였다. 연구결과 하상경사 및 마찰속도 등 하도특성량을 통해 분석한 하상변동 잠재성 평가 결과와 수치모형을 이용한 하상변동 예측결과가 비슷한 경향을 나타냈으며, 금강 및 미호천은 장래 하도가 안정화될 것으로 분석되었다. 이와 같이 장래 하상의 세굴 또는 퇴적경향 등을 예측하고 그 특성을 반영하면, 치수적인 대책 수립과 수리적으로 안전한 구간에서의 식생호안 설치 등 치수적으로 안전하고 친환경적인 하천 및 습지계획이 가능할 것이다.

The destruction of river and damage caused by flood are suddenly increasing due to the abnormal climate. In the investigation result about the damage, approximate 52% of the destruction of embankment are caused by earth work. Moreover, to recover conveyance of relief channel, bed sediment is dredged about 198 millions $m^3$ with 'the project of bed dredging'. So, the concern for bed sediment is the more increasing, the requiring high quality material for banking and the way for application of bed sediment are also the more increasing. In this paper, properties of bed sediment were analyzed through sedimentary mechanism analysis. Moreover, possibility to build embankment with bed sediment in 6 points which is in catchment of the Nak-dong river was also analyzed. At 6 points, which were selected to survey easily, sediment discharge was analyzed with formula. Moreover, size and permeability were analyzed and the feasibility for material of embankment was proposed. If bed sediment wasn't proper, complementary measures were proposed.

용원해역은 부산신항 개발사업의 일환으로 추진된 북컨테이너부두 조성사업 및 항만 배후단지 조성사업으로 전면 해역이 매립되어 원활한 해수흐름이 차단되고 송정천 하구 지점의 견마도 북쪽 통로를 이용한 선박이동만이 가능한 좁고 긴 수로형태로 변형되었다. 따라서 용원수로에 유입되는 오염물질은 수로에 체류되어 서서히 확산되는 양상을 보일 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 용원수로 내 준설 전 후 퇴적토 용출실험을 실시한 결과 준설 후에 용출농도가 낮게 나타났으며, 그룹별(A~C) 삭감률을 산정한 결과 T-N의 삭감률은 4.6%, 18.0%, 18.6%로 나타났다. T-P의 삭감률은 24.8%, 24.2%, 44.1%로 나타났다. COD의 삭감률은 18.6%, 19.8%, 38.1%로 용원수로 내 준설 후 수질개선의 효과가 나타났으며, 준설을 통한 용원수로 내 오염원을 제어하기 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 한다.

A comparison was made of population of the economically important cockle Anadara (=Scapharca) broughtoni (Bivalvia, Arcidae) inhabiting different areas of the Razdolnaya River estuary at the head of Amurskii Bay (Peter the Great Gulf, East Sea). Also, changes in cockle population density and structure, as well as in cockle growth rates during the last 20 years were studied. In all years of investigation, the morphometrical parameters and growth rates of cockles were smaller at the sites located close to the River mouth than farther down-estuary. The differences can be attributed to higher concentration of suspended particulate matter, decreased salinity and water temperature, as well as a longer exposure to these unfavorable environmental factors at sites located close to the River mouth, compared to farther sites. For two decades, cockle population density had decreased by almost 30 times at some sites in the River estuary. The main reason for this population decline is commercial over-fishing of the cockle. Besides, for the last 20 years, linear parameters of the cockles in the population decreased approximately by 30% and weight parameters, almost two times. Cockle growth rates also decreased for this period. Evidently, these facts are due to the damaging effect of dredging.

영산강은 내륙수로로서 중요한 기능을 수행하였으나, 1981년 영산강하구둑 축조 이후에 주운기능이 소멸되었다. 그 이후에 영산강 하류지역을 중심으로 주운복원과 활용방안에 대한 주장이 제기되어 지금까지 지속되고 있으나, 이러한 논의들이 영산강의 지형적, 수문학적인 특성에 충분히 기초하지 못하고 있다. 영산강 주운복원 및 활용은 과학적인 타당성을 기초로 추진되어야 하는데, 영산강의 특성을 고려할 경우, 주운복원은 구진포에서 영산강하구둑까지 수심이 얕은 일부 구간의 저수로를 준설하여 환경탐사, 생태관광을 목적으로 하는 소형 선박을 운항하는 방안이 바람직하다. 영산강 주운복원 및 활용방안을 모색하기 위해서는 자치단체, 유관기관, 전문가, 민간단체 등이 거버넌스에 입각하여 참여와 협력 체계를 구축하는 것이 필요하다.

From the 1997 to January, 2004, a groin 156m long was constructed at the mouth of the Heoya river-mouth as a protection and barrier. To understand the changes to Jinha beach from the blockade of the river mouth, several aerial photographs, etc., were compared, which showed that the changes were significant. Comparing these results to the state of the area before construction of the groin, the blockade of the river was relaxed, but the formation of the tombolo, in the middle groin area was accelerated and the total Jinha beach erosion and especially the erosion of the southern part of Jinha beach was developed. But according to statements by residents and some current documents, the blockade of the Heoya-river mouth is still underway at the surrounding areas of the groin and chronic dredged sand has been used for littoral nourishment at the northern part of the middle groin and on Jinha beach. The result of numerical simulation based on the present state shows that if this sort of dredging is stopped, the sand accumulation will progress near the river mouth groin and the existing tombolo at the middle groin will progress to the north and severe erosion will occur at the southern coastline near the middle groin and the farthest southern part of Jinha beach, and Jinha beach itself will experience a gradual erosion. The main reason for these erosions should be the typhoons that are happening during the summer season. To provide protection from these kinds of undesirable erosions, a total of 23 numerical simulations have been done. It has been shown that submerged breakwaters at the front area of the beach will be efficient to protect from main beach erosion, but there should be alternative proposals for the influence of the river mouth blockade.

The topographic influences for the hydraulic characteristics in the estuary were studied by the hydraulic model test. The upstream boundary is set up at the Kumkang estuary dike and the downstream boundary at the Kunsan outer port. The geometrical model scales in horizontal and vertical are 1/300 and 1/100 respectively so that the distorted ratio is 3. If there is no or little river flow through the gate, the highest water levels are varied with $\pm$ 5cm compared with those before the project. If there is a flood flow through the gate, the highest water levels in front of the estuary dike are reduced 5~2Ocm depending on the frequency of flood compared with those before the project. This means that there is no important risk of excessive water level rise after the dredging.
