Recently, the frequency and intensity of meteorological disasters have increased due to climate change. In South Korea, there are regional differences in vulnerability and response capability to cope with climate change because of regional climate characteristics. In particular, drought results from various factors and is linked to extensive meteorological, hydrological, and agricultural impacts. Therefore, in order to effectively cope with drought, it is necessary to use a composite drought index that can take into account various factors, and to evaluate future droughts comprehensively considering climate change. This study evaluated hydrologic risk(${\bar{R}}$) of future drought in the Nakdong River basin based on the Dynamic Naive Bayesian Classification (DNBC)-based composite drought index, which was calculated by applying Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Streamflow Drought Index (SDI), Evaporate Stress Index (ESI) and Water Supply Capacity Index (WSCI) to the DNBC. The indices used in the DNBC were calculated using observation data and climate scenario data. A bivariate frequency analysis was performed for the severity and duration of the composite drought. Then using the estimated bivariate return periods, hydrologic risks of drought were calculated for observation and future periods. The overall results indicated that there were the highest risks during the future period (2021-2040) (${\bar{R}}$=0.572), and Miryang River (#2021) had the highest risk (${\bar{R}}$=0.940) on average. The hydrologic risk of the Nakdong River basin will increase highly in the near future (2021-2040). During the far future (2041-2099), the hydrologic risk decreased in the northern basins, and increased in the southern basins.

Recent increase of green house gases may increase the frequency of meteorological extremes. In this study, using the index and meteorological data generated by the Markov chain model under the condition of GCM predictions, the possible width of variability of flood and drought occurrences were predicted. As results, we could find that the frequency of both floods and droughts would be increased to make the water resources planning and management more difficult. Thus, it is recommended to include the effect of climate change on water resources in the related policy making.

This study is to estimate economic damages of water shortage, especially drought. we assume scenarios of water shortage and use water input-output linear programming. The result is that economic damage is about 6.4 trillion won in the case of 10% water shortage. According to water shortage scenarios, the shadow price of water in Korea is increasing from 2,462 won to 76,902 won. This study indicates that water has a significant influence on the industrial production in Korea and provides the necessity of the climate change policy for water management.

This paper describes the modeling of climate change impact on drought using a conceptual soil moisture model and presents the results of the modeling approach. The future climate series is obtained by scaling the historical series, informed by CCCma CGCM3-T63 with A2 green house emission scenario, using a daily scaling method that considers changes in the future monthly precipitation and potential evapotranspiration as well as in the daily precipitation distribution. The majority of the modeling results indicate that there will be more frequent drought in Korea in the future.

최근 기후변화에 대한 관심이 급증하면서 기후변화로 인한 여러 가지 문제점들이 드러나며 가뭄에 대한 관심도 증가하고 있다. 수자원 관리에 있어 가뭄 예측은 반드시 필요한 항목이다. 우리나라는 기후변화로 인해 강수량과 기온이 변화할 것으로 보이며, 이는 증발산량의 변화를 초래한다. 증발산량은 가뭄에 대한 중요한 인자 중 하나이며, 따라서 효율적인 수자원 관리를 위해 잠재증발산량(Potential Evapotranspiration, PET)의 변화를 예측하는 것은 반드시 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 미래의 잠재증발산량을 분석하고 예측하기 위해서는 주로 기후모델을 이용한 미래예측자료가 사용된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 다중 RCMs를 이용하여 미래 잠재증발산량의 변화를 추정하고자 하였다. 독일의 전지구기후모델(Global Climate Model)인 MPI-ESM-LR를 기반으로 다양한 지역기후모델(Regional Climate Model)로부터 생산된 미래 자료를 사용하였다. 사용된 RCM은 MM5, RSM, WRF이며, RCP 8.5 시나리오에 대하여 부산 지점에 해당하는 격자로부터 잠재증발산량 추정을 위한 기온, 풍속, 일사량, 상대습도를 추출하였다. 추출된 각 기상자료에 대해 Penman 방법을 적용하여 미래 잠재증발산량을 산정한 후 Quantile Mapping 기법을 이용하여 편의보정을 수행하였다. 산정된 미래 잠재증발산량을 분석한 결과, 부산지점의 경우 미래 잠재증발산량이 현재대비 다소 증가 할 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 이에 대한 대비가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study analyzed past drought characteristics based on the observed rainfall data and performed a long-term outlook for future extreme droughts using Representative Concentration Pathways 8.5 (RCP 8.5) climate change scenarios. Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) used duration of 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, a meteorological drought index, was applied for quantitative drought analysis. A single long-term time series was constructed by combining daily rainfall observation data and RCP scenario. The constructed data was used as SPI input factors for each different duration. For the analysis of meteorological drought observed relatively long-term since 1954 in Korea, 12 rainfall stations were selected and applied 10 general circulation models (GCM) at the same point. In order to analyze drought characteristics according to climate change, trend analysis and clustering were performed. For non-stationary frequency analysis using sampling technique, we adopted the technique DEMC that combines Bayesian-based differential evolution ("DE") and Markov chain Monte Carlo ("MCMC"). A non-stationary drought frequency analysis was used to derive Severity-Duration-Frequency (SDF) curves for the 12 locations. A quantitative outlook for future droughts was carried out by deriving SDF curves with long-term hydrologic data assuming non-stationarity, and by quantitatively identifying potential drought risks. As a result of performing cluster analysis to identify the spatial characteristics, it was analyzed that there is a high risk of drought in the future in Jeonju, Gwangju, Yeosun, Mokpo, and Chupyeongryeong except Jeju corresponding to Zone 1-2, 2, and 3-2. They could be efficiently utilized in future drought management policies.

There is an increasing need for water supply plan using sustainable groundwater to resolve water shortage problem caused by drought due to climate change and artificial aquifer recharge has recently emerged as an alternative. This study deals with recharge potential assessment for artificial recharge system and quantitative assessment for securing stable water and efficient agricultural water supply adapt to drought finding optimal operating condition by numerical modeling to reflect recharge scenarios considering climate condition, target water intake, injection rate, and injection duration. In order to assess recharge potential of injection well, numerical simulation was performed to predict groundwater level changes in injection and observation well respect to injection scenarios (Case 1~4) for a given total injection rate (10,000 m³). The results indicate that groundwater levels for each case are maintained for 25~42 days and optimal injection rate is 50 m³/day for Case 3 resulted in groundwater level rise less than 1 m below surface. The results also show that influential area of groundwater level rise due to injection was estimated at 113.5 m and groundwater storage and elapsed time were respectively increased by 6 times and 4 times after installation of low permeable barrier. The proposed assessment method can be contributed to sustainable agricultural water supply and stable water security for drought adaptation.

In this study, we applied an advanced non-parametric low-flow frequency analysis using boundary kernel by Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) climate change scenarios through Arc-SWAT long-term runoff model simulation at the Gwangdong storage reservoir located in Taeback, Gangwondo. The results show that drought frequency under RCPs was expected to increase due to reduced runoff during the near future, and the variation of low-flow time series was appeared greatly under RCP8.5 scenario, respectively. The result from drought frequency of Median flow in the near future (2030s) compared historic period, the case of 30-year low-flow frequency was increased (the RCP4.5 shows +22.4% and the RCP8.5 shows +40.4%), but in the distant future (2080s) expected increase of drought frequency due to the reduction of low-flow (under RCP4.5: -4.7% and RCP8.5: -52.9%), respectively. In case of Quantile 25% flow time series data also expected that the severe drought frequency will be increased in the distant future by reducing low-flow (the RCP4.5 shows -20.8% to -60.0% and the RCP8.5 shows -30.4% to -96.0%). This non-parametric low-flow frequency analysis results according to the RCPs scenarios have expected to consider to take advantage of as a basis data for water resources management and countermeasures of climate change in the mid-watershed over the Korean Peninsula.

전 세계적으로 기후변화가 심화됨에 따라 기상이변으로 인한 홍수, 가뭄, 태풍 등의 기상재해가 급격히 증가하고 있으며, 피해규모는 물론 생명과 재산피해도 증가하는 추세이다. 기후변화에 의한 온도상승은 증기압을 더 증가시켜 홍수를 유발할 수 있는 강우의 잠재력을 증가시키고 있다(IPCC, 2001). 즉, 수문순환 과정을 빠르게 진행시키고 극한 수문사상의 빈도를 증가시키고 있기 때문에 기후변화가 홍수 재해 및 관리에 미치는 영향을 파악하고, 그에 따른 구조적, 비구조적 대책을 수립하는 것은 미래 치수계획에 있어 아주 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 IPCC 5차 평가보고서(AR5, 2013)에서 제시한 RCP 시나리오를 이용하여 경안천 유역의 홍수 범람을 모의하고 이에 따른 홍수피해액을 산정하였다. RCP4.5 시나리오와 RCP8.5 시나리오를 사용 하였으며, 목표기간별로(Reference : 1971~2005년, 목표기간I : 2006~2040년, 목표기간II : 2041~2070년, 목표기간III : 2071~2100년) 강우 유출분석 모형에 적용해 미래 기후변화가 경안천 유역의 홍수범람에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 다차원홍수피해산정법(MD-FDA)을 통해 홍수 피해액을 추정하였다. 이를 통해 끊임없이 발생하는 자연재해로부터 보다 경제적 효과적으로 홍수피해 저감효과를 증대시킬수 있는 기초자료로 활용하고자 한다.
