Abstract
The purpose of this study is to select the dominant discharge which mostly affects the formation of the channel shape in Yo-Stream. So far, three different discharge conditions such as bankfull discharge, discharge of a specific recurrence interval, and effective discharge have been considered as an indicator of dominant discharge. Therefore, three different discharge conditions were studied and based on the study results, dominant discharge was selected for Yo-Stream. When comparing bankfull discharge and effective discharge at Beonam stream gaging station, it has turned out that effective discharge was 10 m 3 /sec, which is 6 times greater than bankfull discharge of 58.83 m 3 /sec. Furthermore, when comparing bankfull discharge and discharge of a specific recurrence interval, bankfull discharge was quite similar to discharge with recurrence interval of 1.52 years. Previous study results also indicate that dominant discharge occurs with recurrence interval of similar duration. Therefore, discharge of 58.83 m 3 /sec was considered as a dominant discharge, which corresponds to discharge with recurrence interval of 1.52 years.
