Abstract

In this study, monthly precipitation forecasting models that can predict up to 12 months in advance were constructed for the Geum River basin, and two statistical techniques, multiple linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN), were applied to the model construction. As predictor candidates, a total of 47 climate indices were used, including 39 global climate patterns provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and 8 meteorological factors for the basin. Forecast models were constructed by using climate indices with high correlation by analyzing the teleconnection between the monthly precipitation and each climate index for the past 40 years based on the forecast month. In the goodness-of-fit test results for the average value of forecasts of each month for 1991 to 2021, the MLR models showed -3.3 to -0.1% for the percent bias (PBIAS), 0.45 to 0.50 for the Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), and 0.69 to 0.70 for the Pearson correlation coefficient (r), whereas, the ANN models showed PBIAS -5.0~+0.5%, NSE 0.35~0.47, and r 0.64~0.70. The mean values predicted by the MLR models were found to be closer to the observation than the ANN models. The probability of including observations within the forecast range for each month was 57.5 to 83.6% (average 72.9%) for the MLR models, and 71.5 to 88.7% (average 81.1%) for the ANN models, indicating that the ANN models showed better results. The tercile probability by month was 25.9 to 41.9% (average 34.6%) for the MLR models, and 30.3 to 39.1% (average 34.7%) for the ANN models. Both models showed long-term predictability of monthly precipitation with an average of 33.3% or more in tercile probability. In conclusion, the difference in predictability between the two models was found to be relatively small. However, when judging from the hit rate for the prediction range or the tercile probability, the monthly deviation for predictability was found to be relatively small for the ANN models.

본 연구에서는 금강권역을 대상으로 최대 12개월까지 선행예측이 가능한 월 강수량 예측모형을 구축하였으며, 예측모형 구축에는 다중회귀분석과 인공신경망의 두 가지 통계적 기법을 적용하였다. 예측인자 후보로 NOAA에서 제공하는 글로벌 기후패턴 39종과 금강권역에 대한 기상인자 8종 등 총 47종의 기후지수를 활용하였다. 예측대상월을 기준으로 과거 40년간의 월 강수량과 기후지수와의 지연상관성 분석을 통해 상관도가 높은 기후지수를 예측인자로 활용하여 다중회귀모형 및 인공신경망 모형을 구축하였다. 1991~2021년에 대해 매월 예측결과의 평균값과 관측값과의 적합도를 분석한 결과, 다중회귀모형은 PBIAS -3.3~-0.1%, NSE 0.45~0.50, r 0.69~0.70으로 분석되었으며, 인공신경망모형은 PBIAS -5.0~+0.5%, NSE 0.35~0.47, r 0.64~0.70로, 다중회귀모형에 의해 도출된 예측치의 평균값이 인공신경망모형보다 관측치에 좀 더 근접한 것으로 나타났다. 각 월의 예측범위 안에 관측치가 포함될 확률을 분석한 결과에서는 다중회귀모형이 57.5~83.6%(평균 72.9%), 인공신경망모형의 경우에는 71.5~88.7%(평균 81.1%)로 인공신경망모형 결과가 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 3분위 예측확률을 비교한 결과는 다중회귀모형의 경우에는 25.9~41.9%(평균 34.6%), 인공신경망모형은 30.3~39.1%(평균 34.7%)로 비슷하며, 두 모형 모두 평균 33.3% 이상으로 월 강수량에 대한 장기예측성을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이상과 같이 두 모형의 예측성 차이는 비교적 크지 않은 것으로 나타났으나, 예측범위에 대한 적중률이나 3분위 예측확률로부터 판단할 때 예측성에 대한 월별 편차는 인공신경망모형의 결과가 상대적으로 작게 나타났다.
