The Gaussian plume model is widely used to calculate the concentrations of gaseous radioactive effluents in the atmosphere. This model assumes that the terrain is flat, so that the dispersion coefficients which are the most important parameters in this model must be compensated in complex terrain such as in Korea. In this study the compensation of vertical dispersion coefficient in two dimensional x-z plane has been accomplished by comparing the Gaussian plume model with numerical model. The results show that the concentractions of radioactive effluents over complex terrain are more dilluted than those expected over flat terrain.

The lineament extraction from satellite images is important in the geologic studies including groundwater and mineral exploration, groundwater survey, natural hazard analysis, and many others. The lineaments in remote sensing images are identified by the difference of pixel values or brightness. Since the visual interpretation is apt to be influenced by the knowledges and experiences, many of the automatic lineament detection algorithms are developed to ensure the objectives and efficient outputs. DSTA (dynamic segment tracing algorithm) is one of such algorithms, which can be applied to not only mountainous area but also alluvial area. However, when the alluvial area is wider than mountain region, somewhat severe noises are generated. To reduce such noises, AERA (alluvial effect reducing algorithm) is proposed and tested for the image which contains mountains, cultivated land and urban area. Upon the application of AERA, alluvial effects in lineament extraction from satellite image are substantially reduced.

In this study, we developed the GIS-based Geomorpho-hydrological Watershed Modeling System($G^{2}WMS$) which could consider both nonlilear rainfall-runoff relationship based on Geomorpho-Climatic Unit Hydrograph(GCUH) as well as watershed system inducing river routing. The developed new model was calibrated at the gaged rainfall events at natural watersheds and previewed to apply at the ungaged mountain basins, such as Sulma basin for small mountain basin and Andong-Dam basin for large scale basin, compared single with partitioned basin in the observed unit hydrographs and rainfall-discharge events. Finally, at the large scale Andong dam basin, we concluded that partitioned basin cases which including th nonlinear GCUH and river routing methods were superior to single basins which including the traditional methods in rainfall-discharge simulation at the mountain basins.

In this study, single and multiple linear regression model were used to derive the relationship between precipitation and altitude, latitude and longitude in Jejudo. The single linear regression analysis was focused on whether orographic effect was existed in Jejudo by annual average precipitation, and the multiple linear regression analysis on whether orographic effect was applied to each duration and return period of quantile from regional frequency analysis by index flood method. As results of the regression analysis, it shows the relationship between altitude and precipitation strongly form a linear relationship as the length of duration and return period increase. The multiple linear regression precipitation estimates(which used altitude, latitude, and longitude information) were found to be more reasonable than estimates obtained using altitude only or altitude-latitude and altitude-longitude. Especially, as results of spatial distribution analysis by kriging method using GIS, it also provides realistic estimates for precipitation that the precipitation was occurred the southeast region as real climate of Jejudo. However, the accuracy of regression model was decrease which derived a short duration of precipitation or estimated high region precipitation even had long duration. Consequently the other factor caused orographic effect would be needed to estimate precipitation to improve accuracy.

In this study, the regional factors in Gangwondo were used to analysis the relationship between point precipitation and areal precipitation. The most province area in Gangwondo is consist of mountainous terrain. At the east part of the Taebaek Mountains, the slope is very steep and the coastal plains don't exist. At the west part of the Taebaek Mountains, the slope is mild, there are many rivers, such as South Han-river and North Han-river, and the regions are very complex terrain. The data of 66 stations in Gangwondo and the PRISM (Parameter-elevation Regression on Indepedent Slope Model) were used to estimate the spatial distribution of precipitation. According to the topographic conditions, such as elevation and slope, and the regional conditions, such as Youngdong and Youngseo, the spatial distribution of precipitation is well shown. At the results of cross-validation, the RRBIAS and the RRMSE are under 0.1 and therefore the analysis of the PRISM are well conducted. Consequently the PRISM in this study is a appropriate method to estimate the spatial distribution of precipitation in Gangwondo.

오늘날, 보다 정밀한 대기기상 분석과 정확한 기상 예측을 위해 보편적으로 기상레이더를 활용하고 있다. 지표면과 가까운 저층에서 주로 발생하는 국지성 호우 및 돌발기상에 대한 대응을 위해서는 기상레이더 역시 저층 관측이 수반되어야 한다. 하지만, 국토 대부분이 산악지형으로 이루어진 우리나라에서는 산악지형에 의한 지형클러터와 빔 차폐의 영향을 피하여 원만한 기상관측을 위해 대부분의 기상레이더가 고지대에 설치, 운영되고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 낮은 고도각의 레이더 관측 자료에서는 여전히 지형 클러터 및 차폐에 따른 영향으로 인해 자료 품질의 신뢰성이 떨어질 수 밖에 없다. 현재 클러터나 차폐가 발생한 영역에 대해 상위 고도각의 자료를 이용하는 등의 방법으로 보정을 수행하고 있지만 각 고도각 관측 자료들의 시간적 차이가 발생함에 따라 부정확성이 발생할 수 있다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 차폐 영역 보정에 대한 처리를 위해 단일 관측자료 만을 이용하는 방법을 적용함으로서 시간적 불일치성에 대한 문제를 해결하고, 초단기 강수예측을 위한 강수에코의 정확한 추적을 위해 레이더 영상에 적응적인 차폐, 클러터 보정 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 강수에코의 형태학적 구조에 기반한 차폐보정을 위해 영상 처리 기법의 한 종류인 모폴로지 기법을 적용함으로써 강수에코의 모양, 크기, 및 구조에 따라 침식 및 팽창 과정을 수행하여 클러터나 차폐로 인해 소실된 강수에코 영역을 보정한다. 실험결과 레이더 강수추정의 정확성 향상을 꾀할 수 있었으며, 강수 추적을 위한 강수에코의 형태학적 복원이 가능함을 확인하였다. 이로부터, 향후 저층관측 레이더 자료의 활용성 증대와 에코 형태에 기반한 강수 추적 알고리즘 개발 및 성능 향상에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

최근에 상용화되어 있는 영상 중 가장 고해상도인 ikonos 영상은 공간해상도가 높기 때문에 더 많은 지형지물 정보를 포함하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 커다란 장점과 더불어 고층건물이나 높은 표고의 지형에서 발생하는 기복변위 보정이라는 소축척 영상에서 볼 수 없었던 새로운 문제가 등장하였다. 특히, 이러한 고해상도 영상들은 산악지역에서 식생에 대한 세밀한 정보를 제공하지만 상대적으로 높은 고도를 가지고 있기 때문에 발생하는 기복왜곡과 그림자 효과가 자료의 이용에 제한요인으로 작용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 ikonos 고유의 센서정보와 수치지형도를 통하여 획득한 DEM(수치표고모델)을 이용하여 정밀편위보정방법(Difference rectification method) 방법에 의해 기하보정을 수행하고 그 결과 발생하는 산악지역에서는 기복변위를 분석하였다.

Forest fire has a number of variables and since the effects of wind fields are bigger than any other variables, it is essential to know wind direction and velocity for the forest fire extinguishing techniques and the prediction of fire spread. With regards to the local area that has a high chance of forest fire, the data from meteorological observatory in the area is used for the estimation of wind velocity. It is relatively easy to obtain automatic weather station (AWS) data which are available for the whole nation. There is a chance that the data from the weather station may be different with the actual data at the mountain areas. In this study simply shaped hills (Sae-byeol hill of Jeju Island and port Ma-geum in An-myeon Island in the sea side) were selected as the experimental locations to minimize the distortion of the wind field by the adjacent geographic features. Spot measurements and analysis of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for the given geographic features were conducted to examine and compare their consistency. As a conclusion It is possible to predict wind patterns in these simple locations.
