최근 전 세계적으로 급증하는 기후변화의 영향으로 인해 강우량 증가에 따른 이상홍수 발생 및 댐 여유고 부족 등 다양한 위험인자가 노출되고 있다. 이러한 예상치 못한 이상홍수는 실제 거주하고 있는 사람들을 위협할 수 있으며, 하천 범람으로 인해 2차 3차 피해가 일어날 가능성이 존재하고 있다. 이에 다양한 자연재해로부터 인명 및 재산 피해를 방지 및 저감하기 위한 목적으로 다양한 수공구조물이 존재하며, 수자원 관리계획 수립의 목적에 따라 다양한 강수량이 활용되고 있다. 특히, 지구온난화에 따른 기후변화 영향을 고려한 연최대 강수량 및 확률강수량 산정이 필요한 시점이며, 온도변화에 따른 증기압 계산식인 Clausius-Clapeyron 관계에 따르면 대기 온도가 $1^{\circ}C$ 상승할 때 대기수분량이 6~7% 증가하여 평균 온도상승에 따라 극치강수량 발생 잠재력이 향상 될 것으로 전망되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 온도상승에 따른 극치강수량의 변화를 베이지안 다중분위회귀분석모형을 통해 산정하여 CORDEX 온도자료 기반의 미래 극치강수량을 전망하였다. 본 연구결과 100년 이상 빈도의 강수량은 온도상승에 따라 급격히 증가하는 추세를 확인하였으며, 2100년까지 온도상승을 고려한 최대 극치강수량은 1500mm를 넘을 가능성을 확인하였다.

Identification of factors influencing regional population is critical for establishing government's population policies as well as for improving residents' social, economic and cultural well-being in the region. In this study we analysed the data from 2019 Population Housing Survey in Korea to identify the factors affecting the population size in each of the three regions: Seoul, metropolitan cities, and provincial regions. We applied a Bayesian quantile regression to account for asymmetry and heteroscedasticity of data. The analysis results showed that the effects of factors vary greatly between the three regions of Seoul, metropolitan cities, and provincial regions as well as between sub regions within the same region. These results suggest that population-related variables have very heterogeneous characteristics from region to region and therefore it is important to establish customized population policies that suit regional characteristics rather than uniform population policies that apply to every region.

Private education expenses is one of the key issues in Korea and there have been many discussions about it. Academically, most of previous researches for private education expenses have used multiple regression linear model based on ordinary least squares (OLS) method. However, if the data do not satisfy the basic assumptions of the OLS method such as the normality and homoscedasticity, there is a problem with the reliability of estimations of parameters. In this case, quantile regression model is preferred to OLS model since it does not depend on the assumptions of nonnormality and heteroscedasticity for the data. In the present study, the data from a survey on private education expenses, conducted by Statistics Korea in 2015 has been analyzed for investigation of the impacting factors for private education expenses. Since the data do not satisfy the OLS assumptions, quantile regression model has been employed in Bayesian approach by using gibbs sampling method. The analysis results show that the gender of the student, parent's age, and the time and cost of participating after school are not significant. Household income is positively significant in proportion to the same size for all levels (quantiles) of private education expenses. Spending on private education in Seoul is higher than other regions and the regional difference grows as private education expenditure increases. Total time for private education and student's achievement have positive effect on the lower quantiles than the higher quantiles. Education level of father is positively significant for midium-high quantiles only, but education level of mother is for all but low quantiles. Participating after school is positively significant for the lower quantiles but EBS textbook cost is positively significant for the higher quantiles.

Global warming under the influence of climate change and its direct impact on glacial and sea level are known issue. However, there is a lack of research on an indirect impact of climate change such as coastal structure design which is mainly based on a frequency analysis of water level under the stationary assumption, meaning that maximum sea level will not vary significantly over time. In general, stationary assumption does not hold and may not be valid under a changing climate. Therefore, this study aims to develop a novel approach to explore possible distributional changes in annual maximum sea levels (AMSLs) and provide the estimate of design water level for coastal structures using a multiple non-crossing quantile regression based nonstationary frequency analysis within a Bayesian framework. In this study, 20 tide gauge stations, where more than 30 years of hourly records are available, are considered. First, the possible distributional changes in the AMSLs are explored, focusing on the change in the scale and location parameter of the probability distributions. The most of the AMSLs are found to be upward-convergent/divergent pattern in the distribution, and the significance test on distributional changes is then performed. In this study, we confirm that a stationary assumption under the current climate characteristic may lead to underestimation of the design sea level, which results in increase in the failure risk in coastal structures. A detailed discussion on the role of the distribution changes for design water level is provided.
