기후변화와 국내 지하수자원의 지속가능성 - 다음 10년을 위해서

우남칠,Woo, Nam C. 한국지하수토양환경학회 2013 지하수토양환경 Vol.18 No.1

Global climate changes affect the local hydrologic cycle, and subsequently, require changes in water resource management strategies of Korea. Variations in precipitation and urbanization have adverse effects on the reasonable and efficient utilization of groundwater resources. Groundwater management strategies of Korea have been implemented based on the evaluation of "sustainable yield", which is calculated from the amount of annual recharge. However, this sustainable yield has no consideration of natural discharge and dynamic equilibrium of the groundwater system. Therefore, for the effective groundwater management strategies of the following decades, we need representative and reliable observations, and have to develop methods for the systematic analysis and interpretations of the data to draw valid information in linkage of natural and societal environmental changes.

이 연구는 위스컨신주 도어지역의 지하수계에서의 남성분의 이동과 불규칙한 검출에 대한 메카니즘을 규명하였다. 1991년 봄 충진기간 동안에, 세개씩의 수위정(piezometers)을 내장한 두곳의 관측정과 다섯군데의 가정우물에서 수위와 수질의 변화를 측정하였다. 충진현상에 대한 수위의 변화는 지하수의 충진이 약 4일에서 10일 정도 연체되면서 비교적 빠르게 일어남을 보여주며, 이것은 지하수의 충진이 실루리안 돌로마이트 대수층 내에서 높은 수리전도율(K)을 가진 지대를 통해서 일어나고 있음을 지시해준다. 지하수내의 납성분은 미립자에서만 발견되었고, 용융된 상태로는 검출되지 않았다. 그 농도는 0.2에서 $7.1{\mu}g/mg$인데, 이는 지하수내 총 납성분으로는 0.3에서 $4.7{\mu}g/l$이다. 충진사건부터 최대의 미립자가 가정우물까지 이동하는데 걸리는 연체시간은 약 19일에서 22일 이었다. 지하수내에서 납성분이 미립자와 더불어 있으므로, 가정우물 중에서도 높은 수리전도대와 연결된 우물에서만 납성분이 검출되고, 결과적으로 지역적 불규칙성을 유발한다. 또한 우물에서는, 충진사건에 의한 지하수계로의 미립자의 유입량의 변화, 미립자의 이동에 따른 연체현상, 그리고 이동중의 분산 등으로 인해서 납성분의 농도가 채취하는 시간에 따라서 다르게 나타난다. This study examined the mechanisms of lead transport in the groundwater system and those of irregular detections in groundwater in Door County, Wisconsin. During the spring recharge period in 1991, water-level movement and water-quality change were monitored from two monitoring wells equipped with three piezometers each and from five house wells, respectively. Water-level responses to recharge events were fast with a relatively short lag time ranging from 3 to 10 days, indicating that recharge of groundwater occurs through the high hydraulic conductivity (K) zones in the Silurian dolomite aquifer system. Lead was detected only on particles filtered from groundwater, but not in dissolved state. Concentrations ranged from 0.2 to $7.1{\mu}g/mg$, converted into the total lead concentration in groundwater ranging from $0.3{\mu}g/l$ to $4.7{\mu}g/l$. A lag time between recharge events and peak particle movement at the sampled wells was estimated to range from 19 to 22 days. Due to the particulate nature of lead in groundwater, only the wells connected with the high K zones detect lead, causing the spatial variation. In a given well, lead concentration varies at different sampling times due to the variation in the initial amounts of lead-carrying particles introduced into the groundwater system during recharge events, the lag in particle transport and the dispersion of lead-carrying particles along the advective flowpaths.

Stable carbon isotope ratio of carbon dioxide (${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$) is used as an important indicator in the researches for global climate change and carbon capture and sequestration technology. The ${\delta}^{13}C$ value has been usually analyzed with Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS). Recently, the use of Laser Absorption Spectrometry (LAS) is increasing because of the cost efficiency and field applicability. The purpose of this study was to suggest practical procedures to prepare laboratory reference gases for ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$ analysis using LAS. $CO_2$ gas was adjusted to have the concentrations within the analytical range. Then, the concentration of $CO_2$ was assessed in a lab approved by the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme and the ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$ value was measured by IRMS. When the instrument ran over 12 hours, the ${\delta}^{13}C$ values were drifted up to ${\pm}10$‰ if the concentration of $CO_2$ was shifted up to 1.0% of relative standard deviation. Therefore, periodical investigation of analytical suitability and correction should be conducted. Because ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$ showed the dependency on $CO_2$ concentration, we suggested the equation for calibrating the concentration effect. After calibration, ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$ was well matched with the result of IRMS within ${\pm}0.52$‰. 기후변화 연구 및 이산화탄소($CO_2$) 지중저장 분야 등에서 $CO_2$ 가스의 탄소안정동위원소비(${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$)는 주요한 인자로서 인식되고 있다. ${\delta}^{13}C$는 주로 안정동위원소질량분석기(Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry: IRMS)로 분석하지만, 최근 분석비용 및 현장적용성의 문제로 레이저흡광분석기(Laser Absorption Spectrometry: LAS)의 사용이 확대되고 있다. 본 연구는 LAS를 이용한 ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$ 분석 시 분석적합성을 판단하는데 필요한 표준가스의 실질적 확보 방안과 주의사항을 제시하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 실험실 표준가스는 분석할 농도범위로 $CO_2$ 가스를 조제한 후, 한국인정기구 인증시험기관에서 $CO_2$ 농도를 측정한 후에 IRMS로 ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$를 측정하여 사용하였다. 장시간 측정 시, 농도가 상대표준편차 1.0% 이하로 변이하면 ${\delta}^{13}C$는 최대 ${\pm}10$‰까지 변동할 수 있으므로, 표준가스를 주기적으로 측정하여 분석 적합성을 판단하고 필요 시 보정을 하여야 한다. ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$는 $CO_2$ 농도에 의존성을 나타내므로, 분석하고자 하는 영역의 최소 및 최대 농도를 갖는 표준가스의 혼합실험을 통해 보정식을 산출하였으며, 보정 후 ${\delta}^{13}C_{CO2}$는 IRMS 측정값에서 ${\pm}0.52$‰ 이내의 편차를 나타내었다.

이 연구는 국내에서 운용되고 있는 지하수 장기관측망의 자동 관측자료를 이용하여, 발생빈도가 상대적으로 높은 M3.0내외의 소규모 지진에 의한 영향과 지진 전조현상에 의한 지하수의 변화 관측 및 구분가능성을 평가하고자 수행되었다. 사용된 지하수 관측자료는 2012년 4월~6월 기간의 1시간 단위로 김천지좌, 강진성전, 공주정안 3개 관측소의 암반관측공에서 관측된 자료이다, 지하수위, 수온 및 EC 값의 시계열 자료에서 부분적으로 급격한 이상변동이 관측되었으며, 이변동은 2012년 5월 30일 경북 영덕에서 발생한 M3.1 지진의 전조와 그 영향으로 해석된다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지진의규모 및 발생위치와 관측공까지의 거리와 지하수 변동의 크기는 선형관계를 보이지 않으며, 이는 관측공 자체의 구조적 특성과도 연관된다. 따라서 지진관측을 고유목적으로 하는 관측공의 설치, 운용이 필요하며, 이를 통한 장기적 모니터링은 지진 재난지역에서의 비상수자원 확보와 지하공간 안전성 확보의 기반정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이다. This study tests the potential of detecting small-magnitude earthquakes (~M3.0) and their precursors using a long-term groundwater-monitoring database. In groundwater records from April to June 2012, abnormal changes in water level, temperature, and electrical conductivity were identified in the bedrock monitoring wells of the Gimcheon- Jijwa, Gangjin-Seongjeon, and Gongju-Jeongan stations. These anomalies could be attributed to the M3.1 earthquake that occurred in the Youngdeok area on May 30th, although no linear relationship was found between the scale of changes and the distance between each monitoring station and the epicenter, which is attributed in part to the wide screen design of the monitoring wells. Groundwater monitoring networks designed specifically for monitoring earthquake impacts could provide better information on the safety of underground space and on the security of emergency water-resources in earthquake disaster areas.

강변여과수 부지 내 충적층 지하수의 수질특성과 변화

현승규,우남칠,신우식,함세영,Hyun Seung-Gyu,Woo Nam-C.,Shin Woo-Sik,Hamm Se-Yeong 대한자원환경지질학회 2006 자원환경지질 Vol.39 No.2

경상남도 창원시 대산면에 위치하는 강변여과수 개발을 위한 충적층 지하수의 수질특성과 변화양상을 조사하였다. 지하수의 총용존고형물(TDS)은 3월에 비해 3월에 상당히 낮은 값을 보이며, 관측정에서 나타난 계절에 따른 용존산소 농도 변화 역시 강우의 함양으로 인한 지하수의 희석현상이 원인으로 판단된다. 충적층 지하수의 철(Fe)과 망간 (Mn)에 의한 오염현상은 지하수의 심도에 따른 용존산소의 감소에 따른 환원환경의 발생에 기인하며, 철은 비정질의 산화침전물이, 망간은 $MnCO_3$와 같은 탄산염 광물들이 주요 반응물질로 나타났다. 질산성질소$(NO_3-N)$에 의한 오염현상은 지하수 채취 심도에서의 산화환원 환경과 탈질반응이 중요한 역할을 한다. 질산성질소의 불규칙한 분포는 질산성질소가 관측지점 주변의 충적층의 농업시설에서 유입된 것을 지시한다. 연구부지의 관측정들 중 DS-2, D-2, DS-3, SJ-1 및 SJ-3은 주 대수층인 모래/자갈층을 관통하지 못해서, 취수정의 수질변화를 감시하는 모니터링 기능이 제한될 수 밖에 없었다. 나아가, 강변여과수 시설부지에서는, 적어도 여과부지로 사용되는 충적층에 대해서는 농업활동의 제한 등 적절한 오염방지대책이 시행되어야 한다. Characteristics and changes of groundwater qualify were investigated in a riverbank filtration area at Daesan-myeon, Changwon City, Korea. The total dissolved solids (TDS) in groundwater samples collected in October were much less than that in March, indicating the mixing with recharged water from precipitation, as well as the changes of dissolved oxygen profiles at monitoring wells from March to October. Redox processes at depths appeared to trigger Fe and Mn contamination of groundwater in riverbank deposits. Amorphous oxyhydroxides md carbonate minerals such as $MnCO_3$ were probably the reactive phases for dissolved Fe and Mn, respectively. Groundwater contamination by nitrate-nitrogen $(NO_3-N)$ was controlled by the redox processes and subsequent denitrification at the sampled depths. Distribution of $NO_3-N$ concentrations at monitoring wells suggested that the nitrate contaminants were originated from agricultural facilities on the riverbank deposits. Some of monitoring wells, DS-2, D-2, DS-3, SJ-1, and SJ-3, were only partially penetrated into the sand/gravel aquifer, and subsequently, could not fully function to detect the water quality changes for the pumping wells. Proper measures, with regulating agricultural activities in the riverbank deposits, should be carried out to prevent groundwater contamination of the riverbank filtration area.

장기모니터링을 통한 지하수계의 이해 - 광릉소유역 사례 연구

이재민,우남칠,Lee, Jae-Min,Woo, Nam-C. 한국지하수토양환경학회 2012 지하수토양환경 Vol.17 No.4

Effects of climate change on groundwater system requires understanding the groundwater system in temporal and spatial scales through the long-term monitoring. In this study, the spatio-temporal variations of groundwater were analyzed through the continuous observation of water level, electrical conductivity (EC) and water temperature with automatic data-loggers and sampling in a Gwangneung catchment, Korea, for the four years from 2008 to 2011. Groundwater monitoring were performed at the nest-type wells, MW1 and MW2, located in upsteam and downstream of the catchment, respectively. During the survey period, both the total amount of annual precipitation and the frequency of concentrated rainfall have increased resulting in the elevation of runoff. Water level of MW1 showed no significant fluctuations even during the rainy season, indicating the confined groundwater system. In contrast, that of MW2 showed clear seasonal changes, indicating the unconfined system. The lag-time of temperature at both wells ranged from one to three months depending on the screened depths. Results of chemical analyses indicated that major water compositions were maintained constantly, except for the EC decreases due to the dilution effect. Values of the stable-isotope ratios for oxygen and deuterium were higher at MW2 than MW1, implying the confined system at the upstream area could be locally developed.

서울 시내 궁궐 수원의 수질과 유동 특성

이재민,우남칠,김연태,이강진,Lee, Jae-Min,Woo, Nam-C.,Kim, Youn-Tae,Lee, Kang-Jin 한국지하수토양환경학회 2011 지하수토양환경 Vol.16 No.2

This study was objected to provide suggestions for best management practices to restore the cultural and historical values of the wells in Palaces as well as their water qualities. Water resources in the five Palaces in Seoul Metropolitan, including Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung, Changgyeonggung, Jongmyo Shrine, and Deoksugung, were surveyed for their physical flows and chemical compositions from April to July in 2010. Ground waters in most wells were found at depths within 5 m from the ground surface, showing typical water-table aquifer systems. Hydraulic gradients indicate water resources in Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung, and Changgyeonggung flowing toward south, and toward east in Deoksugung area. Especially, water-level fluctuation data at S-10 in Deoksugung implied the influence of groundwater discharge facility. In Jongmyo Shrine, water was not detected in wells, indicating the water level was lower than the well depth. Based on the water chemistry and stable isotope analyses, water resources and their qualities appeared to be formed by the water-rock interaction along the groundwater paths. S-10 (Deoksugung) and S-14 (Changgyeonggung) samples were contaminated with nitrate ($NO_3$) in levels of higher than Korean drinking water standard, 10 mg/L as $NO_3$-N, but once in four sampling campaigns. In the situation that water resources in Palaces still maintain natural characteristics, the materials that will be used for the restoration and improvement of the Palace water supplies should be carefully selected not to disturb the natural integrity. In addition, because the wells are located in the center of metropolitan area, a systematic monitoring should be applied to detect and to manage the potential impacts of underground construction and various pollution sources.
