The soil loss by rainfalls or runoffs has been one of the main environment problems in 20th century. The soil loss cause the various problems those are decreasing of the agricultural productivity, desolating of pasture land and disturbing of water flowing. Therefore, it is very important to measure properly various factors those are affecting to soil loss and to recognize a seriousness of soil loss problem. In this study, we use the USLE(Universal Soil Loss Equation) as a basic approaching way for soil loss analysis in a watershed, and the GSIS(Geo-Spatial Information System) technique is applied to evaluate for factors those are related to the USLE. The results of this study are consisted of three parts those are to build up the various topographical information that is needed for analysis of wide area soil loss by using the USLE, to evaluate the factors those are needed to the USLE, to estimate the soil loss condition of subbasin in the watershed.

Amount of soil loss is important information for the proper water quality management, In this research, annual average soil loss of the Geum River basin was estimated using RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation) and GIS (Geographic Information System). Input data were manipulated using ArcGIS ver. 8.3. From crop field which constitute 8.2% of the Geum River Basin, annual average soil loss was estimated as 53.6 ton/ha/year. From the rice paddy field which constitutes 20% of the Geum River Basin, soil loss was estimated as 33.5 ton/ha/year, In comparison, forestry area which constitutes 61.8% of the basin discharged 2.8 ton/ha/year, It could be known from this research that appropriate measures should be implemented to prevent excessive soil loss from the agricultural areas.

Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is suggested and employed in the policy to conserve soil resources and to manage the impact of development, since soil loss is very essential to nonpoint source pollution management. The equation requires only five factors to estimate average annual potential soil loss, USLE is simplicity provides benefits in use of the equation. However, it is also limitation of the model, since the estimated results are very sensitive to the five factors. There is a need to examine the application procedures. Three approaches to estimate potential soil loss were examined, In the first approach, all factors were prepared with raster data, soil loss were computed for each cell, and sum of all cell values was determined as soil loss for the watersheds. In the second approach, the mean values for each factor were defined as representing USLE factors, and then the five factors were multiplied to determine soil loss for the watersheds. The third approach was same as the second approach, except that the Vegetative and Mechanical measure was used instead of the Cover and management factor and Support practice factor. The approaches were applied in 38 watersheds, they displayed significant difference, moreover no trends were detected for the soil loss at watersheds with the approaches. Therefore, it was concluded that there is a need to be developed and provided a typical guideline or public systems so that soil loss estimations have consistency with the users.

토양침식의 산정은 많은 비용과 시간을 요구한다. 한 지역에서 토양침식을 예측하기 위한 많은 모형들이 있지만, 범용토양손실공식(USLE, Universal Soil Loss Equation)이 연 토양 침식량 산정을 위한 경험식으로 가장 널리 사용되고 있다. 토양침식은 강우강도, 토양의 종류, 토지 피복과 토지이용, 사면경사와 경사길이, 그리고 토양보전을 위한 시설의 영향을 받는다. 이러한 모든 변수들은 공간적으로 분포되어 있기 때문에 지형정보시스템(GIS)이 토양침식 영향평가에 널리 적용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 IHP 대표 유역인 보청천 유역을 대상으로 지형정보시스템(GIS)과 범용토양손실 공식을 연계하여 태풍 루사의 강우에 의한 유역에서의 토양 침식량을 산정하였다.

In this study characteristics of debris flow landslide were investigated on the focus of debris flow disaster occurred by heavy rainfall in 2013 at Goeun-ri around Kaeryoung Mt. in Chuncheon-si. Appropriate method for estimating scale of debris flow was investigated by comparing those values from soil loss by Universal Soil Loss Equation, debris flow yield rate obtained by field survey of investigating debris flow path from initiation and erosion to deposition and other methods. As results of this study, it might be an opportunity of contributing to construct the data base for determining the size of erosion control facilities in future.

국내 도시화 시험유역에 대한 기존 토사유출공식의 적용 가능성을 검토하기 위해 도시 시험유역의 실측자료와 모의기법 적용결과를 비교.분석하였다. 적용된 토사유출량 산정 모의공식으로는 개정범용토양손실공식(RUSLE - Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation), 수정범용토양손실공식(MUSLE - Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation)을 활용하였다. 시험유역은 유역면적 약 3.81 $km^2$로 면적대비 56 % 정도가 도로 및 포장 등으로 도시화가 진행된 도시 시험유역을 선정하여 자동 강우 및 수위계측기를 이용하여 지난 3년간 연속적으로 수문자료를 축적하였다. 또한 계측지점에서의 유출량별 소류사 및 부유사 실측을 통하여 유량-유사량 관계곡선을 개발한 후 호우사상별 유역으로 부터의 토사유출량을 산정하였다. 실측된 강우 및 유량 자료를 활용하여 모의한 토사유출량과 실측한 토사유출량을 비교한 결과 RUSLE를 적용한 모의결과가 실측 토사유출량과 근접한 결과를 제시하였으나 상관계수가 낮아 적용에 세심한 주의가 요구됨을 알 수 있었다. 반면, 실제 유출수문곡선을 MUSLE기법에 적용하여 모의한 토사유출량과 실측 토사유출량의 상관관계는 우수한 예측결과를 보였으나 보정계수의 적용이 필요함을 확인하였다.

This study attempted to study the soil erosion dynamic in the Bagmati Basin of Nepal. In this study, an inclusive methodology that combines Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and GIS techniques was adopted to determine the distribution of soil loss in the study basin. As well, this study attempts to study the intensity of soil erosion in the seven different land use patterns in the Bagmati Basin. Soil loss is an associated phenomenon of hydrologic cycle and this dynamic phenomenon possesses threats to sustainability of basin hydrology, agriculture system, hydraulic structures in operation and overall ecosystem in a long run. Soil conservation works, and various planning and design of watersheds works demands quantification of soil loss. The results of the study in Bagmati Basin shows the total annual soil loss in the basin is 22.93 million tons with an average rate of 75.83T/ha/yr. The computed soil loss risk was divided into five classes from tolerable to severe and the spatial pattern was mapped for easy interpretation. Also, evaluation of soil loss in different land use categories shows barren area has highest rate of soil loss followed by agriculture area. This is a preliminary work and provides erosion risk scenario in the basin. The study can be further used for strategic planning of land use and hydrologic conservation works in a basin.

The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) is a revision of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE). However, changes for each factor of the USLE have been made in RUSLE which can be used to compute soil loss on areas only where significant overland flow occurs. RUSLE which requires standardized methods to satisfy new data requirements estimates soil movement at a particular site by utilizing the same factorial approach employed by the USLE. The rainfall erosivity in the RUSLE expressed through the R-factor to quantify the effect of raindrop impact and to reflect the amount and rate of runoff likely is associated with the rain. Calculating the R-factor value in the RUSLE equation to predict the related soil loss may be possible to analyse the variability of rainfall erosivity with long time-series of concerned rainfall data. However, daily time step models cannot return proper estimates when run on other specific rainfall patters such as storm and daily cumulative precipitation. Therefore, it is desirable that cross-checking is carried out amongst different time-aggregations typical rainfall event may cause error in estimating the potential soil loss in definite conditions.

강우에 의해서 발생하는 토양유실은 비옥한 표토를 유실시켜 생산성의 저하를 초래하고, 유실된 토양입자는 하천이나 호수, 댐 등에 퇴적되어 저수용량의 감소와 수질관리에 어려움을 야기 시키므로 이에 대한 대처가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 위성 영상과 GIS 기법을 활용하여 유역내 토양침식에 영향을 미치는 토양조건, 피복조건, 지형조건들을 추출하고 이 요소들을 범용토양유실공식(USLE; Universal Soil Loss Equation)에 적용하여 유입퇴적량 및 유입 가능성이 높은 위치를 파악하였다. 또한 유입되어 하상에 쌓여 있는 퇴적량은 투과성이 강한 음향측심기를 활용하여 퇴적층과 지층의 고도 정보를 획득하여 산정하고 유실량과 퇴적량을 비교하여 퇴적되는 비율을 도출하였다.

본 연구에서는 낙동강유역을 대상으로 토양 침식 및 유실의 위험성을 분석 및 평가하기 위해 토지이용도를 세부적으로 분석하여 유역별 토양침식 발생의 위험성을 순위화하였다. 또한, 토양침식량을 RUSLE 모형을 이용하여 산정하였고 토지이용도 분석 결과와 함께 토양침식 위험성이 높은 유역을 평가하였다. 최종적으로 해당 유역에 산사태 위험지도와의 비교를 통해 유역내 토양유실 대책 수립을 위한 자료의 활용 방안을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 전체 낙동강유역내 토양침식 위험성이 높은 것으로 선정된 유역은 내성천유역으로 토지이용도 분석결과와 RUSLE 모형의 결과에서 모두 토양유실 측면에서 위험성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. RUSLE 모형 결과에서 토양침식량이 높은 것으로 나타난 지역과 산사태 위험지역의 분포는 유사한 것으로 나타났으나, 하천 주변의 토지이용에 따른 토양유실의 위험성은 RUSLE를 이용한 산정 결과에서만 확인할 수 있었다.
