Abstract

In case of groundwater recharge estimation using water table fluctuation method, specific yield affects the accuracy and confidence level of recharge rate. Nevertheless, there have been few studies on the method for the accurate estimation of specific yield in Korea. Specific yield estimated from the relationship between rainfall and groundwater levels is reasonable compared to the other methods. However, lots of factors such as artificial pumping, evapotranspiration by the plants, and a sudden increase in water levels by a heavy rainfall can affect the pattern of groundwater levels' fluctuation and make an over-estimated or under-estimated specific yield. This study obtained a reasonable specific yield by using a daily or 12 hourly average of rainfall and groundwater levels measured in a dry season.

지하수위 변동법을 이용하여 지하수 함양량을 추정할 경우 매질의 비산출율은 결과에 대한 오차에 직접 영향을 미치게 되나 비산출율의 추정 방법에 대한 고찰은 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 장기 지하수위 관측이 이루어지는 연구지점에서 강우 발생 후 지하수위의 상승량의 상관관계로부터 비산출율을 추정한 결과 타 방법과 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 그러나, 지하수위 변동이 강우에 의해서만 나타나는 것은 아니므로 인위적인 지하수위 변동, 식생에 의한 증발산 및 지하수위의 급상승 등이 배제된 자료를 활용하여야 하며, 갈수기의 12시간 내지 24시간 단위의 평균 강우 및 지하수위 자료를 사용하는 것이 합리적인 비산출율 산정에 바람직한 것으로 나타났다.
