Abstract

The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) regularly publishes various drought indices. However, most of these are meteorological drought indices that are not only difficult but often inappropriate to apply to agriculture. In this study, the meteorological drought index and the agricultural drought index were calculated for the representative points of South Korea during the same period, and the differences in geographical distribution were analyzed according to the characteristics of drought. Although the overall drought patterns estimated by multiple drought indices were similar, the differences were also confirmed due to the different simulation methods depending on the character of drought. Especially, agricultural drought index (ADI) showed higher accuracy in the agricultural sector than that of meteorological drought index (e.g., SPI, PN). In addition, the drought patterns in recent years analyzed by ADI were more severe in spring and early summer compared with normal year. In autumn and winter, drought was weaker than normal year. For the recent periods, inland areas had more droughts than coastal areas. Considering the specific drought indices for the individual sectors, it will be helpful to take measures against drought according to the individual characteristics.

기상청에서는 다양한 가뭄지수를 주기적으로 발표하고 있다. 하지만 이들 대부분은 기상학적인 가뭄지수로 농업적인 부분에 적용하기에는 어려운 부분이 있는 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 전국 대표 지점에 대하여, 같은 기간 동안 기상학적 가뭄지수와 농업가뭄지수를 각각 계산하여 보고, 이를 비교하여 가뭄의 성격에 따른 지리적 분포의 차이와 특성을 분석하였다. 복수의 가뭄지수가 추정한 전반적인 가뭄의 양상은 비슷하였지만, 성격에 따른 모의 방식이 다른 것으로 인한 차이를 확인할 수 있었으며, 농업가뭄지수(ADI)는 기상학적 가뭄지수(SPI, PN)에 비하여 식물의 토양가용수분에 대하여 높은 정확도를 나타내었다. 또한 ADI를 바탕으로 분석한 최근의 가뭄발생 양상은 봄과 초여름의 경우 평년에 비해 최근에 가뭄의 강도가 심했으며, 가을과 겨울의 경우는 평년에 비해 약화되는 패턴을 보였다. 또한 내륙지방이 해안지방에 비해 최근의 가뭄 정도가 더 심했다. 분야별로 특화된 가뭄지수를 고려하는 것은 각각의 성격에 맞는 가뭄에 대한 대책마련에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.
