Abstract

The surface sediment distribution in a tidal flat in 2001 was compared with that of 2008 using high spatial resolution remote sensing images and a GIS-based analysis. Maps of the surface sedimentary facies for each time frame were induced by an IKONOS data acquired in February, 2001 and a KOMPSAT-2 data acquired in April, 2008 using an object-based classification method. The area ratio of each surface sedimentary facies were estimated, and the results were compared each other for deducing the change in the sedimentary facies during the time interval. The result showed that the percentage of grains larger than very fine sand (0.0625 mm) has increased considerably since the early 2000s in the Hwangdo tidal flat. Mud flat facies has decreased 5.81 % in the late 2000s compared with the early 2000s. However, mixed flat and sand flat have increased 4.46% and 2.14%, respectively. A field campaign also supported the result. This study showed that the monitoring of changes in the surface sedimentary facies in the tidal flat is possible through a GIS-based analysis using high spatial resolution remote sensing images.

이 연구에서는 공간해상도 4m 급의 고해상도 위성인 IKONOS 및 Kompsat-2 영상자료와 현장조사 자료를 기반으로 지리정보시스템 분석기법을 적용하여 천수만 황도 갯벌의 표층 퇴적상 분포의 변화 양상을 파악하였다. 2001년 2월에 획득된 IKONOS 영상과 2008년 4월에 획득된 KOMPSAT-2 영상을 이용하여 객체 기반 분류법 (object-based classification)에 의해 갯벌의 표층 퇴적상 분포도를 작성하였다. 두 시기에 얻어진 퇴적상 분포도로부터 각 퇴적상의 면적을 추출하고, 이를 통해 두 시기 동안 연구지역 갯벌의 표층 퇴적상 변화를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 황도 갯벌에서는 2000년 대 초반에 비해 전반적으로 모래 성분이 증가하여 펄 퇴적상의 상당 부분이 혼합 퇴적상으로 변화한 것으로 나타났다. 펄 퇴적상은 2000년대 초에 비해 후반에 5.81% 증가하였으나, 혼합 퇴적상과 모래 퇴적상은 각각 4.46%와 2.14% 증가하였다. 2004년 4월과 2009년 5월 및 2010년 5월 현장조사 결과에 대한 비교분석을 통해 이를 확인할 수 있었다. 연구 결과, 고해상도 위성영상과 지리정보시스템 분석기법의 활용을 통해 갯벌 표층 퇴적상 분포의 변화 양상을 모니터링하는 것이 가능한 것으로 판단된다.
