In this paper, a plastic film type submersion sensor capable of measuring submersion speed was developed. This submersion sensor is designed as a capacitive type, and it is a sensor that outputs the change in capacitance between the electrode of the submersion sensor and the grounded body as a voltage through a C-V(capacitance-voltage) converter. We developed an submersion sensor in which two electrodes of different lengths are connected in parallel to measure the submersion speed accurately by minimizing the influence of noise such as contamination. When both electrodes of the submersion sensor are exposed to water, the rate of change of water level suddenly increases, so the submersion speed is measured by measuring the time to this point. Since the difference in length between the two electrodes of the submersion sensor does not change in any case, it is possible to accurately measure the submersion speed.

Sea level rise, accompanied by climate change, is expected to exacerbate seawater intrusion in the coastal groundwater system. As the salinity of saturated groundwater increases, salinity can increase even in the unsaturated soil above the groundwater surface, which may cause crop damage in the agricultural land. The other adverse impact of sea level rise is reduced unsaturated soil thicknesses. In this study, a composite model to assess impacts of sea level rise in coastal agricultural land is proposed. The composite model is based on the combined applications of a three dimensional model for simulating saltwater intrusion into the groundwater and a vertical one dimensional model for simulating unsaturated zone flow and transport. The water level and salinity distribution of groundwater are calculated using the three dimensional seawater intrusion model. At some uppermost nodes, where salinity are higher than the reference value, of the 3D mesh one dimensional unsaturated zone modeling is conducted along the soil layer between the ground water surface and the ground surface. A particular location is judged salinized when the concentration at the root-zone depth exceeds the tolerable salinity for ordinary crops. The developed model is applied to a hypothetical agricultural reclamation land. IPCC RCP 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios were used as sea level rise data. Results are presented for 2050 and 2100. As a result of the study, it is predicted that by 2100 in the climate change scenario RCP 8.5, there will be 7.8% increase in groundwater saltwater-intruded area, 6.0% increase of salinized soil area, and 1.6% in increase in water-logging area.

In this study, the results of experimental investigation on the water discharge capability of sluice caisson for tidal power plant were presented. In particular, the focus of the study was placed on the examination of change in water discharge capability of a sluice caisson according to the installation of rubble mound. For this purpose, a hydraulic experiment was carried out in an open channel flume with a great care to the measurement of discharge and water level in the flume since they greatly affects the estimation of the discharge capability of each sluice caisson. In the analysis, the experimental data of four different sluice models were used, which showed that the installation of rubble mound affects in different manner depending on each sluice caisson model. When each of the four sluice models were placed on the rubble mound respectively, the water discharge increased for one sluice caisson, whereas decreased for other three sluice caissons. Further detailed analysis is needed to quantitatively estimate the influence of installation of rubble mound on the water discharge capability of a sluice caisson.

In a deep lake and reservoir, thermal stratification is of great importance for characteristics of hydrodynamic mixing of the waterbody, and thereby influencesvertical distribution of dissolved oxygen, substances, nutrients, and the phytoplankton community. The purpose of this study, was to project the effect of a future climate change scenario on water temperature, stratification strength, and thermal stability in the Soyanggang Reservoir in the Han River basin of South Korea, using a suite of mathematical models; SWAT, HEC-ResSim, and CE-QUAL-W2(W2). W2 was calibrated with historical data observed 2005-2015. Using climate data generated by HadGEM2-AO with the RCP 4.5 scenario, SWAT predicted daily reservoir inflow 2016-2070, and HEC-ResSim simulated changes in reservoir discharge and water level, based on inflow and reservoir operation rules. Then, W2 was applied, to predict long-term continuous changes of water temperature, in the reservoir. As a result, the upper layer (5 m below water surface) and lower layer (5 m above bottom) water temperatures, were projected to rise $0.0191^{\circ}C/year$(p<0.05) and $0.008^{\circ}C/year$(p<0.05), respectively, in response to projected atmospheric temperature rise rate of $0.0279^{\circ}C/year$(p<0.05). Additionally, with increase of future temperature, stratification strength of the reservoir is projected to be stronger, and the number of the days when temperature difference of the upper layer and the lower layer becomes greater than $5^{\circ}C$, also increase. Increase of water temperature on the surface of the reservoir, affected seasonal growth rate of the algae community. In particular, the growth rate of cyanobacteria increased in spring, and early summer.

Purpose: This study aims to suggest new strategy of planning water management and land use in response to abnormal weather which allow waterfront to be the cities through the experience of Netherlands resilient project. Method: A planning direction is developed based on Dutch national resilient policy and strategy as well as resilient theory of technical and social aspects, focusing on a new waterfront development that responds to abnormal weather. Results: The water control strategy, for flexibly responding to the sea level rise and flooding caused by the climate change through the experience of Dutch resilience, is as follows: 1)Customized prevention plan according to the local property 2)Creating spatial planning by considering disaster risk level and fragility 3)Establishing urban planning by considering the flood risk level. Conclusion: A new urban development method, particularly a resilience strategy based on the waterfront space where is most vulnerable to climate change, is required to cope with the abnormal climate beyond the conventional planning.

Resistivity inversion result may be distorted if the seepage line fluctuation within central core with the change of reservoir water level as well as the conductivity of the reservoir water is not taken into consideration because the reservoir dike is composed of three-dimensional (3D) resistivity structure. Consequently, to accurately analyze the resistivity changes inside the reservoir dike according to the change of reservoir water level, 3D electrical resistivity modeling for the 2D survey line considering topography and physical properties of dam components was carried out. In addition, 2D inversion was performed with the simulated 2D resistivity data for a given 3D model in order to compare it with the inversion result of real field data. For 283 reservoirs in Korea, 2D inversion results for the simulated 2D data and field 2D resistivity data were compared. Finally, the reservoirs with an inversion ratio of 50% or less were selected as reservoirs that require further precise investigation.

According to climate change, deficiency of usable land, large water portion of the Earth surface, and improvement of income level, floating architecture is emerging as a strong & attractive alternative. The aim of this study is to suggest some related applying ways for new building projects around waterside. New paradigm of architecture can be described as a new model and/or system of architecture with new concept and Zeitgeist like sustainability and green building. Floating building is already a new paradigm of architecture comparing with the preconception of building only on the land and current building regulations. New paradigm features from the sample projects can be summarized as new concepts of building, application of various renewable energy resources(water, solar, wind), modular construction, use of local raw material, dual purpose usage, long term and relocatable usage, and special building materials for green building.

It can be important framework data to monitor the change of land-use pattern of river boundary in design and management of river. This study analyzed the change of land-use pattern of Gab- and Yudeung River using time-series aerial images. To do this, we carried out radiation and geometric correction of image, and estimated land-use changes in inland and floodplain. As the analysis of inland, the ratio of residential, commercial, industrial, educational and public area, that is urbanized element, increases, but that of agricultural area shows a decline on the basis of 1990. Also, Minimum Distance Method, which is a kind of supervised classification method, is applied to extract water-body and sand bar layer in floodplain. As the analysis of land-use, the ratio of level-upped riverside land and water-body increases, but that of sand bar decreases. These time-series land use information can be important decision making data to evaluate the urbanization of river boundary, and especially it gives us goodness in river development project such as the composition of ecological habitat.

This study is to trace the change of stream shape using the past series of aerial photographs and compare the land use changes of inland along the stream. For the Gyeong-an national stream, aerial photographs of 1966, 1981 and 2000 was selected and ortho photograph was made with RMSE of 1.05, 0.54, 0.72 pixels, respectively. As apparent changes of the stream, the consolidated reaches of stream with levee construction were straightened and their stream width widened. Especially the stream width of inlet part of Paldang lake was widened almost twice because of the rise of water level by dam construction in 1974.

To investigate the effects of hot water soluble extract from Angelicae Gigantis Radix on lipid metabolism and antioxidant defense system in rats fed hypercholesterol diet, Sprague-Dawley male rats were fed either hypercholesterol diet with water or hot water soluble extract from Angelicae Gigantis Radix. Hypercholesterol diet contained 18 % beeftallow and 5 % cholesterol. After 4 weeks of experimental periods serum and liver obtained. The level of serum lipid and the activities of GOT and GPT was measured. The level of lipid and TBARS and the activity of GSH-Px was measured also. The results obtained were: 1) Food intake in the experimental group supplied hot water soluble extract from Angelicae Gigantis Radix was low significantly. 2) In the experimental group supplied hot water soluble extract from Angelicae Gigantis Radix of serum total lipid and total cholesterol was significantly low. 3) Serum GOT activity was significantly low in the experimental group supplied hotwater soluble extract from Angelicae Gigantis Radix. There was no difference of serum GPT activity between control and experimental group supplied hot water soluble extract from angelical Gigantis Radix. 4) There was no difference of lipid composition, TBARS level and GSH-px activity in liver between control and experimental group. The result of this study indicates that the hot water soluble extract from Angelicae Gigantis Radix was effective in decreasing the food intake of the experimental animals in the hypercholesterol diet and also effective in decreasing the levels of serum total lipid, total cholesterol and GOT activity. However it was not effective to change the level of lipid, TBARS and GSH-Px activity of liver.
