Abstract
The principal component analysis was performed to identify the general characteristics of groundwater level changes from 202 deep and 112 shallow wells monitoring data, respectively, which came from the National Groundwater Monitoring Stations operated by KWATER with time spans of 156 continuous weeks from 2003 to 2005. Eight principal components, which accounted for 80% of the variability of the original time series, were extracted for water levels of shallow and deep monitoring wells. As a result of cluster analysis using the loading value of three principal components for shallow wells, shallow monitoring wells were divided into 3 groups which were characterized with a response time to rainfall (Group 1: 4.6 days, Group 2: 24.1 days, Group 3: 1.4 days), average long-term trend of water level (Group 1: $2.05{\times}10^{-4}$ m/day, Group 2: $-7.85{\times}10^{-4}$ m/day, Group 3: $-3.51{\times}10^{-5}$ m/day) and water level difference (Group 1 < Group 2 < Group 3). Additionally, they showed significant differences according to a distance to the nearest stream from well (Group 3 < Group 2 < Group 1), topographic slope of well site (Group 3: plain region, Group 1: mountainous region) and groundwater recharge rate (Group 3 < Group 2 < Group 1) with a p-value of 0.05.

현재 운영중인 국가지하수관측소의 지하수위 변동 특성을 파악하고자, 2003년부터 2005년까지의 156주 동안의 202개 암반관측정과 112개 충적관측정을 대상으로 주성분분석을 실시하였다. 암반 및 충적관측정의 지하수위에 대하여 80% 정도 설명 가능한 8개 주성분을 각각 추출하였으며 이중 충적관측정에 대해서는 주성분 인자적재값을 이용하여 군집분석을 실시한 결과 강우에 대한 지하수위의 반응(군집 1: 4.6일, 군집 2: 24.1일, 군집 3: 1.4일), 수위 변동추세(군집 1: $2.05{\times}10^{-4}$ m/day, 군집 2: $-7.85{\times}10^{-4}$ m/day, 군집 3: $-3.51{\times}10^{-5}$ m/day), 수위 변동 폭(군집 1 < 군집 2 < 군집3) 등에 의하여 설명되는 3개의 군집으로 분류되었으며, 각 군집은 유의수준 0.05에서 인근 하천과의 거리(군집 3 < 군집 2 < 군집 1), 지하수 함양율(군집 3 < 군집 2 < 군집 1) 및 지형 경사 특성(군집 3이 평야지대, 군집 1은 급경사 지역) 등에 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다.
