Popis: Future changes in river bed were predicted under the assumption that flow velocity of past and changes in flow rate at upstream river due to construction of large-scale artificial structures downstream occur in the future. Therefore, the long-term runoff volume from the downstream part of Hosan Stream was estimated using the SSARR (Stream Synthesis and Reservoir Regulation Model). Changes in the river bed were simulated using RMA-2 and SED-2D, which are hydraulic models. As a result, it was found that the river bed variation is significantly affected by the inclusion of sediment in flood flow at upstream. A comprehensive evaluation of above results revealed that the river width has significantly affected flow rate, and the inclusion of sediment in flood flow from the upstream has a huge effect on changes in the riverbed. In this regard, there is a need to devise measures to mitigate future flood damage to artificial structures by reflecting sedimentation trends downstream before the construction of large-scale artificial structures at downstream of river.
