Abstract

In this study, using flux data measured in Deokgokje reservoir watershed near Deokyu mountain in May, June, and July 2011, statistical analysis was conducted for outlier detection and replacement for vertical wind speed in the measurement of evapotranspiration based on eddy covariance method. To statistically analyze the outliers of vertical wind speed, the outlier detection method based on interquartile range (IQR) in boxplot was employed and the detected outliers were deleted or replaced with mean. The comparison was conducted for the measured evapotranspiration before and after the outlier replacement. The study results showed that there is a difference between evapotranspiration before outlier replacement and evapotranspiration after outlier replacement, especially during the rainy day. Therefore, based on the study results, the outliers should be deleted or replaced in the measurement of evapotranspiration.

본 연구에서는 2011년 5월, 6월, 7월에 덕유산 덕곡제에서 관측된 플럭스자료를 이용하여 에디공분산방법으로부터 증발산량을 측정하는 경우 발생할 수 있는 연직방향 풍속의 이상치 판별 및 대체에 대한 통계적 분석을 실시하였다. 연직방향 풍속의 이상치를 파악하기 위해 적용된 통계분석방법은 사분위수를 바탕으로 상자그림(boxplot)의 분석결과 중에 이상치를 판별하기 위한 interquartile range (IQR)을 적용하여 이상치를 탐색하였다. 또한 삭제하거나 평균값으로 대체하는 방법을 통하여 보완된 연직방향 풍속자료를 이용하여 증발산량을 측정하였으며, 이를 보완전의 증발산량과 비교분석하였다. 비교분석한 결과에 의하면 이상치를 대체하기 전의 증발산량과 이상치를 대체한 후의 증발산량 사이에 차이를 보였으며, 특히 강우 시에 보다 큰 차이를 보였다. 따라서 증발산량 측정과정에서 발생하는 이상치를 보완하기 위해 이상치를 삭제하거나 대체하여 증발산량을 측정하는 것이 필요하다.
