Abstract

This study focuses on the categorization of the phenomenon of vegetative recruitment on riparian channels, so called, the phenomenon from "white river" to "green river", and proposes for the corresponding research direction. According to the literature review and research outputs obtained from the authors' previous research performed in Korea within a limited scope, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the recruitment and retrogression of riparian vegetation may be the mechanical disturbance (riverbed tractive stress), soil moisture (groundwater level, topography, composition of riverbed material, precipitation etc.), period of submergence, extreme weather, and nutrient inflow. In this study, two categories, one for the reduction in spring flood due to the change in spring precipitation pattern in unregulated rivers and the other for the increase in nutrient inflow into streams, both of which were partially proved, have been added in the categorization of the vegetative recruitment and retrogression on the riparian channels. In order to scientifically investigate further the phenomenon of the riparian vegetative recruitment and retrogression and develop the working riparian vegetative models, it is necessary to conduct a systematic nationwide survey on the "white to green" rivers, establishment of the categorization of the vegetation recruitment and retrogression based on the proof of those hypotheses and detailed categorization, development of the working mathematical models for the dynamic riparian vegetative recruitment and retrogression, and adaptive management for the river changes.

본 연구는 충적하천의 식생이입 현상, 즉 경관생태적으로 하천이 화이트리버에서 그린리버로 변하는 현상을 원인 별로 구분하고, 구분된 각각의 유형을 설명하고, 앞으로의 연구방향을 제시하는 것이다. 문헌연구와 과거 필자들이 제한된 범위에서 시행한 관련 국내 연구성과에 의하면 사주 상 하천식생 이입과 퇴행의 필요/충분 조건은 기계적 교란 (하상소류력), 토양습윤(지하수위, 지형, 하상재료 구성, 강수 등), 침수기간, 극단적 기후, 그리고 영양염류의 유입 등이다. 본 연구에서 사주 상 하천식생 이입과 퇴행의 원인 별 유형으로서 부분적으로 입증된 가설인 봄철 강우양상 변화로 인한 비조절하천에서 홍수 저감과 하천에 영양물질 유입증가 유형을 추가하였다. 하천식생 이입과 퇴행 현상을 과학적으로 더 규명하고 실제 이용가능한 하천식생모형의 개발을 위해서는 화이트리버가 그린리버로 바뀌는 현상의 전국적인 현황조사, 가설의 검증과 세분화를 통한 원인 별 유형 정립, 동적 하천식생 모델링 기법 개발, 변화에 따른 적응관리 등에 대해 연구가 필요하다.
