This study is to make snowfall distribution map for the 4 heavy snowfall events of January 2001, March of 2004, December of 2005 and January of 2010, and compare the results for three cases of construction methods. The cases are to generate the map by applying IDW(Inverse Distance Weighting) interpolation to 76 ground measured snowfall point data (Snow Depth Map; SDM), mask out the SDM with the MODIS snow cover area (MODIS SCA) of Terra MODIS (MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) (SDM+MODIS SCA; SDM_M), and consider the snowdepth lapse rate of snowfall by elevation (Digital Elevation Model; DEM) to the second case (SDM_M+DEM; SDM_MD). By applying the MODIS SCA, the SCA of 4 events was 62.9%, 44.1%, 52.0%, and 69.0% for the area of South Korea. For the average snow depth, the SDM_M decreased 0.9cm, 1.9cm, 0.8cm, and 1.5cm compared to SDM and the SDM_MD increased 1.3cm, 0.9cm, 0.4cm, and 1.2cm respectively.

최근 세계적으로 기상이변에 의해 한파와 폭설이 발생하고 있으며, 이로 인한 피해를 예측하기 어려워 졌다. 우리나라의 대설피해는 지역별로 상이해 강설 특성을 파악하기 위해 강설자료와 과거의 기상현상자료를 분석하여야 한다. 대표적인 대설피해로 설압피해, 적설피해, 착설피해와 간접피해로 분류 되며 시설재배면적에 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 설압피해는 쌓인 눈의 압력으로 인하여 파손 및 붕괴를 유발한다. 본 연구에서는 과거 재해연보 자료(1994년~2018년)와 기상청에서 제공되는 적설자료를 활용해 대설피해 관련 자료를 수집 및 분석하여 온실에 손상을 입힐 수 있는 적설심을 분석하였다. 로지스틱 회귀분석을 위한 자료 구축은 재해연보의 피해기간을 기반으로 하여 종속변수로 사용하였다. 이후 적설심자료를 최심신적설로 변형하였으며 온도와 함께 독립변수로 사용하였다. 우리나라의 대설 사례가 많은 영동지역은 강설빈도가 높아 대설 방지대책 및 대설 연구자료가 다른 지역에 비해 많은 것으로 판단된다. 이에 따라 최근 빈도가 증가하고 있으며 대설피해 사례가 10건 이상이고 관측지점이 피해지역과 가까운 지역, 적설관측자료가 연속적으로 관측되어 있는 남원, 보령, 장수, 부안을 공간적 범위로 선정하였다. 연구의 결과로 대설 피해 재난관리가 가능한 적설심 기준 설립에 도움을 줄 것으로 판단된다.

The Southern Volcanic Zone (SVZ) of Chile consists of many volcanoes, including the Mt.Villarrica and Mt.Llaima, and the two volcanoes are covered with snow at the top of Mountain. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the ice caps and the volcanic activity of the two volcanoes for 25 years by using the satellite image data are available in a time series. A total of 60 Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-7 ETM + data were used for the study from September 1986 to February 2011. Using NDSI (Normalized Difference Snow Index) algorithm and SRTM DEM, snow cover and snowline were extracted. Finally, the snow cover area, lower-snowline, and upper-snowline, which are quantitative indicators of snow cover change, were directly or indirectly affected by volcanic activity, were extracted from the satellite images. The results show that the volcanic activity of Villarrica volcano is more than 55% when the snow cover is less than 20 and the lower-snowline is 1,880 m in Llaima volcano. In addition, when the upper-snowline of the two volcanoes is below -170m, it can be confirmed that the volcano is differentiated with a probability of about 90%. Therefore, the changes in volcanic snowfall are closely correlated with volcanic activity, and it is possible to indirectly deduce volcanic activity by monitoring the snow.

This study is to analyze the heavy snowfall vulnerable area of snow load design criteria for greenhouse, cattle shed and building using ground measured snow depth data and Terra MODIS snow cover area(SCA). To analyze the heavy snowfall vulnerable area, Terra MODIS satellite images for 12 years(2001-2012) were used to obtain the characteristics of snow depth and snow cover areas respectively. By comparing the snow load design criteria for greenhouse(cm), cattle shed($kg/m^2$), and building structure($kN/m^2$) with the snow depth distribution results by Terra MODIS satellite images, the facilities located in Jeolla-do, Chungcheong-do, and Gangwon-do areas were more vulnerable to exceed the current design criteria.

Due to the climate change, natural disaster has been occurred more frequently and the number of snow disasters has been also increased. Therefore, many researches have been conducted to predict the amount of snow damages and to reduce snow damages. In this study, snow damages over last 21 years on the Natural Disaster Report were analyzed. As a result, Chungcheong-do, Jeolla-do, and Gangwon-do have the highest number of snow disasters. The multiple linear regression models were developed using the snow damage data of these three provinces. Daily fresh snow depth, daily maximum, minimum, and average temperatures, and relative humidity were considered as possible inputs for climate factors. Inputs for socio-economic factors were regional area, greenhouse area, farming population, and farming population over 60. Different regression models were developed based on the daily maximum snow depth. As results, the model efficiency considering all damage (including low snow depth) data was very low, however, the model only using the high snow depth (more than 25 cm) has more than 70% of fitness. It is because that, when the snow depth is high, the snow damage is mostly caused by the snow load itself. It is suggested that the 25 cm of snow depth could be used as the snow damage threshold based on this analysis.

The purpose of this paper is to prepare snowmelt parameters using RS and GIS and to assess the snowmelt impact in SLURP (Semi-distributed Land Use-based Runoff Process) model for Chungju-Dam watershed $(6,661.5km^2)$. Three sets of NOAA AVHRR images (1998-1999, 2000-2001, 2001-2002) were analyzed to prepare snow-related data of the model during winter period. Snow cover areas were extracted using 1, 3 and 4 channels, and the snow depth was spatially interpolated using snowfall data of ground meteorological stations. With the snowmelt parameters, DEM (Digital Elevation Model), land cover, NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and weather data, the model was calibrated for 3 years (1998, 2000, 2001), and verified for 1 year (1999) using the calibrated parameters. The average Nash-Sutcliffe efficiencies for 4 years (1998-2001) discharge comparison with and without snowmelt parameters were 0.76 and 0.73 for the full period, and 0.57 and 0.19 for the period of January to May. The results showed that the spatially prepared snow-related data reduced the calibration effort and enhanced the model results.

This study supplies basic data to develop a greenhouse model for reducing the damage to single-span greenhouses caused by strong winds and heavy snow. Single-span plastic greenhouses are predominantly used for growing crops in Korea. Thus, the safety wind speeds for single-span greenhouses were calculated and compared with the actual wind speeds and snow depths over a period of 8 years in different regions to analyze the structural safety of single-span greenhouses. The unit wind load and unit snow load were applied to different designs of single-span greenhouse according to the cultivated crop to achieve a structural analysis. As a result, the maximum section force for the wind and snow load was greatest for leaf and root vegetables, where the safety wind speeds for single-span greenhouses according to the cultivated crop were 17.7 m/s(leaf vegetables), 20.2 m/s (fruit vegetables), and 22.3 m/s (root vegetables). Thus, the single-span greenhouses were not found to be safe for the wind load in most regions, except for Hongcheon, Icheon and Sungju. Plus, the safety snow depths for single-span greenhouses according to the crop were 8.8 cm (leaf vegetables), 9.4 cm (fruit vegetables), and 11.8cm (root vegetables). Thus, when comparing the safety snow depths with the actual snow depths, the single-span greenhouses were not found to be safe. Therefore, to improve the safety of single-span greenhouses, the structures need reinforcement by reducing the interval between rafters or increasing the size of the pipes. However, additional research is needed.

기후변화는 전 세계적으로 다양한 영향을 미치고 있으며 특히, 홍수나 대설로 인한 수문변화에 영향을 준다. 본 연구는 준분포형 연속 모형인 SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool)모형을 이용하여 우리나라 3대 대설지역에 속하는 다목적댐인 충주댐유역(6642.0 m)의 기후변화에 따른 융설이 수문과 수질에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 한다. 먼저, 융설 모형의 매개변수인 적설분포면적감소곡선 (Snow Cover Depletion Curve; SCDC)을 구축하기 위하여 10년(2000-2010)동안의 Terra MODIS (MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) 위성영상자료와 6개 기상관측소(충주, 제천, 원주, 영월, 대관령, 태백)의 최심적설자료를 이용하여 연도별 SCDC을 구축하였다. 구축 결과, 눈이 50% 피복 일 때 snow volume은 연 평균 0.47로 분석되었다. 이를 SWAT 모형에 적용하여 수문과 수질에 대한 적용성 평가를 실시한 결과, 유출의 경우 NSE는 융설기간 동안 평균 0.8, 전체기간은 평균 0.6으로 나타났으며 수질(Sediment, T-N, T-P)의 경우 각각 평균 0.72, 0.70, 0.85을 나타내었다. 미래 기후자료는 IPCC(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change)에서 제공하는 SRES(Special Report on Emission Scenarios) A1B, B1 기후변화시나리오의 HadCM3 모델의 결과 값을 이용하였으며 기간은 과거 30년 기후자료(1981-2010, baseline)를 바탕으로 2040s(2020-2059), 2080s(2060-2099)의 두 기간으로 나누어 각각 분석하였으며 기후변화 결과 값의 불확실성을 줄이고자 과거 자료와 GCM의 1981년에서 2000년까지의 값을 비교하여 온도와 강수량의 보정을 실시한 후 LARS-WG를 이용하여 온도와 강수량 자료를 구축하였다. SWAT 모형을 적용한 결과, 평균 1.92 증가한 것으로 나타났으며 유출은 융설기간(Nov-Apr)이 비융설기간(May-Oct)보다 10% 더 증가하였다. 본 연구에서는 SWAT 모형을 통한 유출 및 환경부하량 전망을 목표로 하여 미래 기후변화를 고려한 융설이 다목적댐에서의 유출과 수질 (Sediment, Total Nitrogen, Total Phosphorus)에 미치는 영향을 평가해 보고자 한다.

The Arctic Circle's huge amounts of fossil fuels and mineral resources are being developed and subjected to active construction projects. Global efforts are continuing to actively respond to climate change, but the dependence on fossil fuels remains high. This study reports a preliminary survey conducted in Alberta, Canada, where oil sand resources are actively developed. A land cover map was prepared using satellite imagery to reduce the cost and time of surveying a wide area. Results likely useful to resource development projects such as ground surface temperature and snow cover distribution were derived by using the obtained image classification results. It is expected that the results of the present research and analysis will be used to establish strategies for the successful promotion and operation of projects to develop resources in the Arctic.
