Abstract

In this study, WUA (Weighted Usable Area) based on the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM) was calculated to determine ecological flow at JeonJu-Cheon by using River2D model. To calibrate River2D, simulation results for low flow conditions of River2D were compared with calibrated HEC-RAS simulation results and the optimum parameters were determined. The results were RMSE (0.18), NSE (0.71) and coefficient of determination (0.78) for velocity and RMSE (0.02), NSE (0.71), coefficient of determination (0.73) for water depth. The result shows that the model successfully simulates the water flows. A selected target fish species to build the habitat suitability index were composed of Zaccoplatypus and Coreoleuciscus splendidus. These species showed the highest occurrences over the past decade in f ish monitoring. Also, The WUA-Discharge curve was calculated with the suitability index in a medium flow conditions. From the result, WUA is changed according to flowrate. In the flowrate-WUA/A graph, ecological flow can be determined at $1.8{\sim}2.0m^3/s$ for Zaccoplatypus $2.0m^3/s$ and Coreoleuciscus splendidus $1.8m^3/s$ at JeonJu-Cheon upstream. When compared with flow-duration analysis, it is demonstrative that simulation results fitted ecological flow considering quantity of available habitat for each fish species.

본 연구에서는 유량점증방법론에 입각하여 물리 서식처 모의 시스템의 기반을 둔 2차원 수리 및 서식처 모의인 River2D를 적용하였다. 대상 지점은 전주천 상류부이며, 수리모의 결과에 대한 비교는 갈수량 조건에서 검정된 HEC-RAS 수리모의 결과를 바탕으로 River2D와 유속, 수심 모의 결과를 비교, 평가하였다. 그 결과 유속의 RMSE는 0.18, NSE는 0.71, 결정계수는 0.78이고, 수심의 RMSE는 0.02, NSE는 0.71, 결정계수는 0.73으로 수리모의 결과가 실측치에 잘 반영되는 것으로 평가된다. 서식처 적합도 지수를 구축하기 위해 선정한 대표 어종은 10년간 어류 모니터링을 통하여 가장 출현빈도가 높은 피라미, 쉬리 어종에 대하여 선정하였다. 또한 평수량, 조건에서의 서식처 적합도 지수를 바탕으로 가중가용면적-유량 관계곡선을 산출하였으며, 한강 및 금강 수계에서 적합도 지수를 구축한 강형식(2010)의 지수를 가지고 모의한 결과와 비교, 평가하였다. 생태유량 산정 결과 피라미는 $1.5{\sim}2.0m^3/s$ 쉬리는 $1.8{\sim}2.0m^3/s$으로 산정되었다. 대상유역의 수질, 하도 구성, 생물 다양성 등이 매우 양호한 생태이고, 모의 결과 값을 유황분석과 비교해볼 때, 산정된 어류별 생태유량은 전주천 상류부에 적합한 것으로 평가된다.
