Resumen

This study investigated changes in stream?aquifer interactions during the period shortly after the construction of the Changnyeong-Haman River barrage (CHRB) on the Nakdong River in South Korea. The hydraulic diffusivity (a) and river resistance (R) values at the semipervious stream?aquifer interface were estimated by using a one-dimensional (1-D) analytical solution with Fourier transform (FT). Prior to the application of the 1-D analytical solution, the noise effects on the groundwater levels were removed by using fast Fourier transform and low-pass filtering techniques. Sinusoidal variation of the river stages was applied to the 1-D analytical solution. For the study period, the R values showed a decreasing trend, while the a values showed an increasing trend, and results showed that the average of the median values of flood duration times (td) and flood amplitudes were reduced to 78% and 59%, respectively. Moreover, the ratio of flood peak time to td demonstrated a decreasing tendency after the construction of the CHRB. Hence, it is concluded that the dredging and increase of river-water storage due to CHRB construction enhanced stream?aquifer interactions during the period shortly after the construction of the CHRB.
