최근 국지성 호우와 잦은 태풍으로 인한 돌발홍수가 빈번하게 발생하여 도심지에서의 호안유실과 범람으로 많은 외수침수의 피해가 발생하고 있다. 또한 기후변화에 따른 강우량의 증가와 집중호우로 인한 홍수 피해는 지속적으로 증가할 것으로 예상됨에 따라 대하천 유역을 중심으로 홍수범람예측 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있지만 대하천을 제외한 지방 중소하천의 연구가 미비한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 지방 중소하천 중 태풍과 집중호우의 영향이 많은 제주지역의 주요 하천 중의 하나인 한천 유역을 테스트베드로 선정하여 연구를 진행하였다. 한천은 강우 시에만 유출이 발생하는 건천으로, 집중호우 시 암반하상 조건, 복개, 교각 등으로 수위가 국부적으로 급격히 상승하는 경우가 있었다. 그리고 한천 하류부에는 도심이 위치하고 있어 돌발홍수 발생 시 막대한 피해가 발생한다. 이에 따라 홍수 피해를 줄이기 위한 제도화, 정책결정 등의 구조적 해결방안과 홍수 피해의 규모와 원인을 분석하는 비구조적 해결방안에 대한 연구가 시급하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 홍수범람 등으로 인한 홍수 피해규모를 산정하여 각 정부부처 및 유관기관, 지자체에서 빠른 정책결정을 내릴 수 있는 자료를 제공하는 목적으로 제주도의 특성을 고려한 홍수범람위험도 산정 알고리즘을 개발하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 제주 한천유역의 단면 자료와 빈도별 홍수량 자료를 이용하여 HEC-RAS 모형으로 수리학적 흐름특성 모의를 실사하였다. 모의된 결과를 바탕으로 ArcGIS 소프트웨어인 ESRI사의 ArcMap을 이용하여 빈도별 홍수위 자료와 제주지역 수치표고모형 자료를 활용한 빈도별 홍수범람지도를 산정하고, 좌안과 우안의 제방고로부터 위험도를 산정하여 홍수범람위험도를 각각 구축하였다. 구축된 결과를 이용하여 분석하고자하는 해당 빈도의 홍수위와 홍수량이 발생할 때의 피해지역을 예측하였으며, 예측된 지역과 제주시의 공시지가 자료를 중첩하여 피해지역에 대한 피해액을 산정하였다. 본 연구의 알고리즘을 적용한 2007년 태풍 '나리' 사상의 경우와 비교한 결과, '나리' 사상의 침수 흔적도와 유사한 홍수범람지도를 획득 할 수 있었으며, 모의된 유역의 하천 복개구간을 중심으로 홍수범람이 발생한다는 점과 우안보다 좌안에서의 홍수범람위험도와 피해액이 더 크게 나타난 점 등의 홍수범람 특성을 파악할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제시된 기법을 이용할 경우, 홍수에 의한 취약지에 대한 제방 설계 강화, 하천의 보수 정비 등 정책적 결정에 사용될 수 있을 것이며, 실시간 자료제공, 재해정보시스템 등에 적용하여 홍수범람 피해를 줄일 수 있는 기반기술이 될 것으로 사료된다.

The system for predicting flood of river at Flood Control Office is made up of a rainfall-runoff model and FLDWAV model. This system is mainly operating to predict the excess of the flood watch or warning level at flood forecast points. As the demand for information of the management and operation of riverside, which is being used as a waterfront area such as parks, camping sites, and bike paths, high-level forecasts of watch and warning at certain points are required as well as production of lowland flood forecast information that is used as a waterfront within the river. In this study, a technology to produce flood forecast information in lowland areas of the river used as a waterfront was developed. Based on the results of the 1D hydraulic analysis, a model for performing spatial operations based on high resolution grid was constructed. A model was constructed for Andong district, and the inundation conditions and level were analyzed through a virtual outflow scenarios of Andong and Imha Dam.

In this study, the artificial neural network model is applied for real-time dam inflow prediction and then evaluated for the prediction lead times (1, 3, 6 hr) in dam basins in Korea. For the training and testing the model, hourly precipitation and inflow are used as input data according to average annual inflow. The results show that the model performance for up to 6 hour is acceptable because the NSE is 0.57 to 0.79 or higher. Totally, the predictive performance of the model in dry seasons is weaker than the performance in wet seasons, and this difference in performance increases in the larger basin. For the 6 hour prediction lead time, the model performance changes as the sequence length increases. These changes are significant for the dry season with increasing sequence length compared to the wet season. Also, with increasing the sequence length, the prediction performance of the model improved during the dry season. Comparison of observed and predicted hydrographs for flood events showed that although the shape of the prediction hydrograph is similar to the observed hydrograph, the peak flow tends to be underestimated and the peak time is delayed depending on the prediction lead time.

고랭지(해발고도 400m 이상)는 전국 밭 면적의 24.7%을 차지하고 있고 경사도가 15도 이상인 지역이 58.7%인 41,812ha에 달한다. 고랭지 농업은 주로 해발고도가 높은 산지의 경사지에서 이루어지고 있고, 대부분 작물 재배기간이 5월부터 9월까지 약 5개월 정도로 짧아, 나머지 7개월은 토양 피복이 이루어지지 않은 상태로 있어 토양유실 가능성이 높다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 본 연구에서 경관성이 높은 구절초를 식재하여 토양유실 저감 효과를 구명하였다. 고랭지 경사도 55도 라이시미터(Lysimeter)에서 가로 1.2m에 세로 1.8m의 규격으로 시험을 수행하였다. 관행구로 나지(Control, TC) 대비 식재 당시 피복정도에 따라, 피복율 40%는 T1, 피복율 70%는 T2로 하여 총 3처리를 두었다. 구절초의 개화기(10월 1일) 피복율을 조사한 결과 대조구인 나지상태는 0%의 피복율인데 이에 반해 구절초 식재 처리구는 57~80%로 경사지 토양을 피복시키는 효과가 가장 높은 경향을 보였다. 경관작물인 구절초를 식재할 경우 나지 TC를 기준으로 유출량이 65~71%, 토양유실이 87~99% 감소되어 강우에 의한 토양유실 경감에 매우 효과적이었다. 또한, 유거수 탁도 저감 효과성이 뛰어났다. 따라서, 고랭지 경사지에 영년생 자원식물 중 경관성이 뛰어난 구절초를 식재함으로서 경사지 토양유실을 경감시킬 수 있고, 부가가치가 높은 고소득작물로 활용 가치가 높다.

One of the most important issues for projecting future water resources and establishing climate change adaptation strategies is 'uncertainty'. In Korea, climate change research results were very heterogeneous even in a same basin, but there have been few climate change studies dealt with the uncertainty reduction. This is because emission scenarios, GCMs, downscaling, and rainfall-runoff models that were used in the previous studies were almost all different. In this research, fifty one GCM scenarios based A and B emission scenarios were downloaded and then compared with the observed values for a period from January 2001 to December 2008. The downloaded GCM scenarios in general simulated well the observed but did not simulated well the observed precipitation especially for the flood season in Korea. The accuracy of each GCM scenario was measured with the model efficiency, PDF-based, and Relative Entropy methodology. Among the selected GCM scenarios with three methodologies, the four common GCM scenarios(CGCM2.3.2(MRI-M, B1), MIROC3.2medress(NIES, B1), CGCM2.3.2(MRI-M, A2), CGCM2.3.2(MRI-M, A1B) were finally selected. Results of the four selected GCMs were heterogeneity and projected increases of precipitation for the Korean Peninsula by from 27.36% to 12.49%, respectively. It seems very risky to rely a water planning or a management policy on use of a single climate change scenario and from this research results. Therefore, the four selected GCM scenarios proposed quantitatively were considered firstly for the water supply in the dry season and the drought management strategy in the Korean Peninsula for the future.

The role of angioembolization has increased because of increases in nonoperative treatment for traumatic splenic injury. We report here a case of successful treatment of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm of the femoral artery by thrombin injection with coil embolization. A 55-year-old female was admitted to our hospital because of blunt trauma. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a grade V splenic injury with contrast extravasation; therefore, angioembolization was performed. Three days after admission, follow-up CT scan revealed rebleeding from the spleen, and repeat angioembolization was performed. Seven days after admission, an approximately $7.0cm{\times}4.0cm-sized$ pseudoaneurysm was found on follow-up CT scan and there was no bleeding from the spleen. Although thrombin was injected into the aneurysmal sac, there was still inflow of blood, as observed on color-doppler ultrasound. Therefore, coil embolization to the neck of the aneurysm was performed. On angiography, there was no contrast filling into the sac. The size of the pseudoaneurysmal sac had decreased on follow-up CT scan, and the patient was discharged to home without complications. We successfully treated a giant pseudoaneurysm of the femoral artery using thrombin and coil embolization.

Vegetation processes have a significant impact on rainfall runoff processes through evapotranspiration control, but are rarely considered in the conceptual lumped hydrological model. This study evaluated the model performance of the Hapcheon Dam watershed by integrating the ecological module expressing the leaf area index data sensed remotely from the satellite into the hydrological partition module. The proposed eco-hydrological model has three main features to better represent the eco-hydrological process in humid regions. 1) The growth rate of vegetation is constrained by water shortage stress in the watershed. 2) The maximum growth of vegetation is limited by the energy of the watershed climate. 3) The interaction of vegetation and aquifers is reflected. The proposed model simultaneously simulates hydrologic components and vegetation dynamics of watershed scale. The following findings were found from the validation results using the model parameters estimated by the SCEM algorithm. 1) Estimating the parameters of the eco-hydrological model using the leaf area index and streamflow data can predict the streamflow with similar accuracy and robustness to the hydrological model without the ecological module. 2) Using the remotely sensed leaf area index without filtering as input data is not helpful in estimating streamflow. 3) The integrated eco-hydrological model can provide an excellent estimate of the seasonal variability of the leaf area index.

This study analyzes bifurcation characteristics of the Seolmacheon experimental catchment by extracting the shape variation of channel network due to variable scale of source basin or threshold area. As the area of source basin decreases, a bifurcation process of channel network occurs within the basin of interest, resulting in the elongation of channel network (increase of total channel length) as well as the expansion of channel network (increase of the source number). In the former case, the elongation of channel reaches overwhelms the generation of sources, whereas, in the latter case, the drainage path network tends to fulfill the inner space of the basin of interest reflecting the opposite trend. Therefore, scale invariance of natural channel network could be expressed to be a balanced geomorphologic feature between the elongation of channel network and the expansion of channel network due to decrease of source basin scale. The bifurcation structure of the Seolmacheon experimental catchment can be characterized by the coexistence of the elongation and scale invariance of channel network, and thus a further study is required to find out which factor is more crucial to rainfall transformation into runoff.

The application of nature-based solutions, such as low impact development (LID) techniques and green infrastructures, for stormwater management continue to increase in urban areas. Plants are usually utilized in LID facilities to improve their pollutant removal efficiency through phytoremediation. Plants can also reduce maintenance costs and frequency by means of reducing the accumulation of pollutants inside the facility. Plants have long been used in different LID facilities; however, proper plant-selection should be considered since different species tend to exhibit varying pollutant uptake capabilities. This study was conducted to investigate the pollutant uptake capabilities of plants by comparing the dry matter and nutrient contents of different plant species in roadsides, LID facilities, and landscape areas. The dry matter content of the seven herbaceous plants, shrubs, and arboreal trees ranged from 60% to 90%. In terms of nutrient content, the total nitrogen (TN) concentration in the tissues of herbaceous plants continued to increase until the summer season, but gradually decreased in the succeeding periods. TN concentrations in shrubs and trees were observed to be high from early spring up to the late summer seasons. All plant samples collected from the LID facility exhibited high TP content, indicating that the vegetative components of LID systems are efficient in removing phosphorus. Overall, the nutrient content of different plant species was found to be highly influenced by the urban environment which affected the stormwater runoff quality. The results of this study can be beneficial for establishing plant selection criteria for LID facilities.

Amidst the global climate crisis, dam operation policies formulated under the stationary climate assumption could lead to unsatisfactory water management. In this work, we assessed status-quo performance of the Yongdam Dam in Korea under various climatic stresses in flood risk reduction and water supply reliability for 2021-2040. To this end, we employed a decision-centric framework equipped with a stochastic weather generator, a conceptual streamflow model, and a machine-learning reservoir operation rule. By imposing 294 climate perturbations to dam release simulations, we found that the current operation rule of the Yongdam dam could redundantly secure water storage, while inefficiently enhancing the supply reliability. On the other hand, flood risks were likely to increase substantially due to rising mean and variability of daily precipitation. Here, we argue that the current operation rules of the Yongdam Dam seem to be overly focused on securing water storage, and thus need to be adjusted to efficiently improve supply reliability and reduce flood risks in downstream areas.
