Abstract

With growing concerns about ever-increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, it is crucial to enhance preparedness for unprecedented extreme weathers that can bring catastrophic consequences. In this study, we proposed a stochastic framework that considers uncertainty in weather forecasts for flood analyses. First, we calibrated a simple rainfall-runoff model against observed hourly hydrographs. Then, using probability density functions of rainfall depths conditioned by 6-hourly weather forecasts, we generated many stochastic rainfall depths for upcoming 48 hours. We disaggregated the stochastic 6-hour rainfalls into an hourly scale, and input them into the runoff model to quantify a probabilistic range of runoff during upcoming 48 hours. Under this framework, we assessed two rainfall events occurred in Bocheong River Basin, South Korea in 2017. It is indicated actual flood events could be greater than expectations from weather forecasts in some cases; however, the probabilistic runoff range could be intuitive information for managing flood risks before events. This study suggests combining deterministic and stochastic methods for forecast-based flood analyses to consider uncertainty in weather forecasts.

기후변화에 대한 우려와 함께 증가하고 있는 극한호우의 피해를 줄이기 위해서는 호우사상 발생 이전에 홍수위험을 미리 파악하여 피해를 대비할 시간을 늘리는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 기상청 동네예보를 기반으로 하는 간단한 확률적 홍수위험 산정방법을 제시하였다. 예보강수를 조건부로 하는 6시간 강수량의 확률밀도함수를 이용해 다수의 임의 강수량을 생성한 후 추계학적 모형으로 1시간 단위로 분해하여 간단한 강우-유출모형에 입력하는 방법을 사용하였다. 보청천 유역의 2017년 주요 강우사상에 제안된 방법을 적용한 결과, 7월 4일 최대홍수량이 나타났던 사상에 대해서는 예보강수를 이용한 모의는 홍수위험을 과소평가하였음을 확인하였고 반면 8월 15일 사상에 대한 동네예보는 강수량을 다소 과대추정 하였지만 홍수위험을 충분히 알릴 수 있는 정보로 평가되었다. 본 연구는 확정론적 모형과 확률론적 강수량을 결합하여 기상예보의 불확실성을 고려한 자료기반 홍수위험도 산정방법을 제시한다.
