This study investigated changes of hydrology, soil characteristics, riparian vegetation communities, and geomorphology in sandbars before and after sand-mining to determine the effect of sand-mining at upstream of Guemgang and Bochungcheon streams in Korea. Sand-mining events affected the mining area. They supplied organic matters and nutrients during flood. Sediment deposition caused soil texture change and expansion of vegetation area. However, riverbeds were stabilized after the disturbance. According to the analyses of aerial photographs, the vegetation area was significantly expanded in both dam-regulated streams and dam-unregulated streams after sand-mining. Willow shrubs advanced in disturbed area at an average of 10 years after sand-mining. It took willows trees 10.6 years to become dominant communities. Therefore, it took a total of 20.6 years for new riparian forest to form in sandbar after sand-mining. Our results confirmed that stream flow condition were dependent on vegetation recruitment in dam-regulated streams and dam-unregulated streams. For willow recruitment in unregulated streams, calculation of water level below dimensionless bed shear stress is important because low water level variation is a limiting factor of vegetation recruitment.

Using a Quaternary sediment sampled from the Gwnahju-cheon various organic carbon analysis have been accomplished. The result helped us to figure out how climate environment has changed through at that time. The analysis outcome, except the analysis of upper section(range of 0 to 50 cm depth), showed that the climate was generally warm and humid at that time. However, even in this result, the climate environment was slight differences, it can be divided into four periods. Period I is from $3,880{\pm}30yr\;BP$ to $3,030{\pm}70yr\;BP$, in which the climate was relatively warm and humid/dry slightly. Period II is from $3,030{\pm}70yr\;BP$ to $2,970{\pm}70yr\;BP$, in which the climate was relatively warmer than period I and the most humid among all period. Period III is from $2,970{\pm}30yr\;BP$ to $2,270{\pm}70yr\;BP$ and refers to the warmest among all periods and also relatively drier/more humid than period I. Period IV which is from $2,270{\pm}70yr\;BP$ to $2,170{\pm}110yr\;BP$ represents the coolest and driest climate compare to other periods, although there is a high possibility of disturbance caused by cultivation activities.

Even though a systematic sampling approach is very crucial in both the general and detailed investigation phases to produce the best conceptual site model for contaminated sites, the concept is not yet established in South Korea. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the 'Strategic Sampling Approaches Technical guide' in 2018 to help environmental professionals choose which sampling approaches may be needed and most effective for given site conditions. The EPA guide broadly defines strategic sampling as the application of focused data collection across targeted areas of the conceptual site model (CSM) to provide the appropriate amount and type of information needed for decision-making. These strategic sampling approaches can prevent the essential data from missing, minimize the uncertainty of projects and secure the data which are necessary for the important site-decisions. Furthermore, these provide collaborative data sets through the life cycle phases of projects, which can generate more positive proofs on the site-decisions. The strategic sampling approaches can be divided by site conditions. This technical guide categorized it into eight conditions; High-resolution site characterization in unconsolidated environments, High-resolution site characterization in fractured sedimentary rock environments, Incremental sampling, Contaminant source definition, Passive groundwater sampling, Passive sampling for surface water and sediment, Groundwater to surface water interaction, and Vapor intrusion. This commentary paper introduces specific sampling methods based on site conditions when the strategic sampling approaches are applied.

본 연구는 호수바닥에 있는 침전물로부터 인의 용출 메커니즘을 규명하고자, 인이 물로 용출될때 미치는 온도의 영향을 조사하였다. 연구 결과를 보면, 온도가 증가하면 PO4-P가 평형에 빨리 도달하고, 평형농도가 증가하며, $PO_4$-P의 용출 증가로 인하여 pH가 감소한다. 즉, $PO_4$-P의 용출이 pH의 감소에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 탁도물질에서 용출된 $PO_4$-P는 물에 용존하며, 탁도물질에 흡착되지 않기 때문에 탁도의 변화에 관계없이 점진적인 증가를 나타냈지만, $PO_4$-P는 탁도에서 용출되기 때문에 탁도와 관련이 있다. 총인(Total phosphorous, T-P)은 용존성 $PO_4$-P와 탁도물질에 포함된 인을 포함하기 때문에 탁도의 변화에 직접 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 온도가 감소하면 물의 밀도가 증가하여 탁도의 침전이 감소하기 때문에 탁도의 농도가 높아져 T-P 농도를 증가시키며, 온도가 증가하면 물의 밀도감소로 인하여 탁도물질의 침전이 용이해져서 탁도는 감소하지만 $PO_4$-P의 용출이 증가하여 T-P 농도가 증가했다. 따라서 동일 시간대의 T-P는 온도가 달라도 유사한 농도를 가졌다. 호수가 깊어지면 저층수의 온도가 감소하여 인의 용출이 감소하므로 이 메카니즘은 호수 바닥으로부터 물로 용출되는 인에 대하여 온도가 미치는 영향을 이해하는데에 중요하다.

This study has researched the management status and the pollution level of water, soil, stream sediments of 11 abandoned coal mines out of a total of 12 within Obong-Dam area except Bukyung mine, which was submerged when constructing Obong-Dam, and selected areas which are in needs to have pollution control facilities in the first place. From the results of examination on the runoff at the waste rock pile and mineheads, the runoff from Sueun mine (pH, Fe, Al), Samwon mine (pH, Al), Wangdo mine (pH, Al), Mose mine (pH, Fe, Al) and Daeryeong mine (pH) exceeded the permissible discharge standards of the water quality, but the water at merging point with Obong-Dam after joined with Doma branch satisfied both Water Quality Standards and Drinking Water Quality Standards. In regard to groundwater contamination, it is found that areas where exceeded the Drinking Water Quality Standards are Wangdo mine (pH), Jangjae mine (pH, Zn), Daeryeong mine (pH) whereas all areas satisfied Soil Contamination Warning Standards of Soil Environmental Conservation Law. When comparing a research result on underwater sediments of branches of abandoned mines to the EPA Guidelines for classification of great lakes harbor sediments, Dongguk Gaerim (Fe), Jungwon mine (Fe), Daebo mine (Mn), Samwon mine (Mn) and Daeryeong mine (Mn) showed mid-level of contamination, whereas Sueun (Fe, Mn), Daebo mine (Fe), Woosung mine (Fe, Mn), Wangdo mine (Fe, Mn), Mose mine (Fe) and Daeryeong mine (Fe) showed high-level of contamination. In addition, contamination levels of underwater sediments in Wangsan and Doma branch where abandoned mine's branches merge together, Wangsan branch showed no contamination at all whereas Doma branch shows mid-level of contamination which reflect the Doma branch is affected by waste rock pile and minehead runoff of the abandoned mines in the Doma branch area. It is concluded that Mose mine and Sueun mine required treatment of acid mine drainage. and Wangdo, Jungwon, and Samwon mines were in need of mine tailing and erosion control work. The Samwon mine additionally required a control system for closed minehead runoff. Although the Samwon mine reached a high concentration of Al, Mn $Ca^{2+}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$ in the runoff, the levels decreased after it was combined with a tributary. It has been concluded that after further monitoring of the cause of pollution, a preventive measure system may be needed to be built.

지표수-지하수 혼합대는 지표수와 지하수의 수리적 교환이 일어나는 하상의 간극수 지역으로 모든 자연하천에 존재한다. 이 지역은 그동안 다른 특성으로 분리되었던 지표수와 지하수의 전이대로 다양한 미생물이 서식하고 있으며, 하변과는 또 다른 생지화학적인 기작이 일어날 것으로 추정된다. 지금까지의 연구는 미미하지만, 지표수-지하수 혼합대를 고려한 하천 생태 연구는 하천 전체의 생지화학적 기작을 이해하는데 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 보인다. 본 연구 대상 지역은 내성천(경상북도 예천군 고평교 하류 구간)으로 이 하천은 사질 하상이며, 자연이 그대로 보존되어있다고 평가 받는 자연 직할 하천이다. 토양시료는 하변 달뿌리풀(Phragmites japonica) 식생지, 나지, 수변 혼합대와 사주 혼합대 하강류(downwelling), 상승류(upwelling) 지역에서 깊이 별로 채취하여 수분함량, pH 및 용존유기탄소와 같은 토양 이화학적인 분석과 체외 미생물 효소($\beta$-glucosidase, N-acetylglucosaminidase, phosphatase and arylsulfatase) 활성도, 미생물 군집구조(eubacteria, denitrifying bacteria)의 특성을 알아보았다. 실험 결과 수변 및 사주 지표수-지하수 혼합대 토양이 많은 수분을 함유하고 있었고, 수분함량과 용존 유기탄소는 양의 상관관계를 보였으며, 체외 미생물 효소 활성도는 용존유기탄소와 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 진정세균 군집구조 또한 수변 및 사주의 지표수-지하수 혼합대에서 독특한 경향을 보였다. 이와 같은 결과는 지표수-지하수 혼합대를 통해 일어나는 하천의 생지화학적인 순환 전체를 이해하기 위한 기반을 제공한다.

전북 부안 화강암지역에서 기반암을 피복하고 있는 세립질 뢰스-고토양 연속층의 퇴적물 특성과 기원지를 검토하였다. 조사단면에서 퇴적층 두께는 약 280cm이며, 상부로부터 표층, Layer 1(고토양), Layer 2(뢰스), Layer 3(고토양), Layer 4(뢰스), Layer 5(고토양)로 이루어져 있다. 대자율값은 각 층준 사이에 뚜렷한 차이를 보이며 변동한다. pH, 산화환원전위(ORP), 수분함량, 토양경도와 달리, 유기물 함량은 대자율과 유사하게 토층의 특징을 잘 반영한다. 세 가지 조건하에서 측정된 토색 중 습윤 상태의 토색이 각 층준의 차이를 양호하게 반영하지만, 먼셀(Munsell) 색체계의 특성상 일부 지점에서는 변화 양상이 다소 불분명하다. 부안단면의 지형적 특성, 퇴적 구조 그리고 주원소 및 희토류 원소 조성이 주변 기반암 및 하천퇴적물과는 분명한 차이를 보이는 반면, 중국 황토고원의 시료와 매우 유사한 조성을 보이기 때문에, 연구 지역의 뢰스는 중국 황토고원 및 그 주변지역에서 기원한 물질에 의해 형성된 것으로 판단된다. 퇴적 이후에는 퇴적지의 환경, 즉 한국의 기후조건, 특히 많은 강수량에 의해 기원지와 다른 풍화특성을 보인다.

The microbial organisms named "Pseudomonas sp. LK-14" were isolated from farm land and shallow river sediment, activated, augmented and identified; which were using 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) as a sole carbon source and energy source. 2,4-D removal efficiency of LK-14 with 2,4-D sole carbon source (reactor S) were higher than that of Activated Sludge with 2,4-D sole carbon source (reactor A). Dynamic bioligical reaction kinetic parameters (sole carbon source was 2,4-D) obtained from batch reactor experiments were ${\mu}_{max}$ $0.105hr^{-1}$, $K_{s,24D}$ 15.64mg/L, $K_{i,24D}$ $1.94h^{r-1}$, $Y_{24D}$ 0.39 for LK-14 and ${\mu}_{max}$ $0.008hr^{-1}$, $K_{s,24D}$ 26.95mg/L, $K_{i,24D}$ $1.75hr^{-1}$, $Y_{24D}$ 0.10 for Activated Sludge. Using these parameters, we could predict the behaviors of 2,4-D substrate utilized by LK-14 and Activated Sludge in batch reactors. The kinetic parameters are enable to predict the 2,4-D substrate and microbial population behavior entering into wastewater treatment plants by using unsteady states dynamic simulation modeling technique.
