Sediment regimes in South Korea
A comprehensive review of the existing river flow and sediment measurement data of South Korea shows specific sediment yield values ranging from 5 to 1,500 tons/km2·year. The watershed characteristics decisively affect the shape of mass curves for water and sediment, as well as the flow duration and sediment rating curves. In terms of flow regime, small watersheds have flashy hydrographs and high sediment concentrations at a given flow discharge. The sediment rating curve coefficients decrease from 1 to 0.02 as the watershed area increases from 100 to 20,000 km2, while the exponents of these curves remain relatively constant between 1.5 and 2.0. The sediment transport in small watersheds depends on large floods, and the half‐yield discharge decreases with watershed area and typically ranges from 5 to 40 times the mean discharge. This study defines equations to calculate the mean annual flow discharge, flow duration curves, sediment yield, and cumulative water and sediment distribution curves validated with field measurements in South Korea. Additionally, the sediment regime is also presented in a continental perspective.
