The six current models for estimating pan coefficient were applied to test the applicability of models in Seoul, South Korea. The models are Cuenca's model, Snyder's model, Pereira et al.'s model, Allen et al.'s model, Orang's model, and Raghuwanshi and Wallender's model. The estimated pan coefficients were compared with measured one. The measured pan coefficient was obtained by using measured pan evaporation and FAO Penman-Monteith reference evapotranspiration. Estimated evaporation by using estimated pan coefficients was compared with measured one. Furthermore, model for estimating pan coefficient in Seoul was developed. When applying 6 current models for 10 m, 15 m and 20 m fetch distances, pan coefficient estimates from Snyder's model were most similar to measured pan coefficients for all fetch distances. On the other hand, pan coefficient estimates from Pereira et al.'s model were most different from measured one. Therefore, model for estimating pan coefficient in Seoul was developed by modifying Snyder's model. When applying developed model, estimated monthly average evaporation was 92.1 mm for 10 m, 15 m and 20 m fetch distances and measured one was 91.9 mm, indicating that evaporation estimate from developed model is closest to measured one, compared with those of current models.

The effects of monthly meteorological data measured at 11 stations in South Korea on pan coefficient were analyzed to develop the four types of multiple linear regression models for estimating pan coefficients. To evaluate the applicability of developed models, the models were compared with six previous models. Pan coefficients were most affected by air temperature for January, February, March, July, November and December, and by solar radiation for other months. On the whole, for 12 months of the year, the effects of wind speed and relative humidity on pan coefficient were less significant, compared with those of air temperature and solar radiation. For all meteorological stations and months, the model developed by applying 5 independent variables (wind speed, relative humidity, air temperature, ratio of sunshine duration and daylight duration, and solar radiation) for each station was the most effective for evaporation estimation. The model validation results indicate that the multiple linear regression models can be applied to some particular stations and months.

The evapotranspiration (ET) is one of the most important factor in the hydrological cycle. In this study, remote sensing based ET algorithm using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) was considered. Then, Priestley-Taylor algorithm was used for estimation of potential evapotranspiration in South Korea, and its spatial distribution was analyzed. Overall applicability between estimated potential evapotranspiration and weather station pan evaporation in Nakdong river basin was represented. The results using small pan showed that correlation coefficient in Pohang and Moonkyung Station was 0.70 and 0.55, respectively. However, the results using large pan showed correlation coefficient in Pohang and Moonkyung Station was 0.62 and 0.52, respectively.

다양한 목적의 장기유출분석에 많이 적용되고 있는 4단 Tank 모형의 증발산관련 입력자료는 증발접시자료를 이용하거나 또는 장기간의 유량과 강수량의 차이로 정의되는 월별 손실량을 계산한 결과를 사용하고 있다. 증발접시자료는 자료 구득문제와 신뢰성 문제 등으로 인해 적용사례가 적고 통상 인근 관측지점의 손실량을 계산하고 이를 전이하여 적용하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 일증발산량 산정방법은 장기적인 유량 자료를 보유한 인근 관측지점이 있어야 적용할 수 있다는 점과 관측지점의 자료 신뢰성에 따라 유출결과에 큰 영향을 미칠수 있는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 Hamon 방법과 Jensen-Haise 방법 및 FAO Penman-Monteith 방법을 검토하여 Tank 모형 계산에 필요한 실제증발산량을 산정할 수 있는 방안에 대해 모색하였다. 분석결과 유역별 실제손실량은 지형적인 영향을 받는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이를 통해 잠재증발산량을 실제증발산량으로 보정하는 월별보정계수를 지형인자로부터 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다.

To evaluate the utilization suitability of solar radiation models, estimated solar radiation from 13 solar radiation models were verified by comparing with measured solar radiation at 5 study stations in South Korea. Furthermore, for the evaluation of evaporation estimates according to solar radiation models, 5 different evaporation estimation equations based on Penman's combination approach were applied, and evaporation estimates were compared with pan evaporation. Some solar radiation models require only meteorological data; however, some other models require not only meteorological data but also geographical data such as elevation. The study results showed that solar radiation model based on the ratio of the duration of sunshine to the possible duration of sunshine, maximum temperature, and minimum temperature provided the estimated solar radiation that most closely match measured solar radiation. Accuracy of estimated solar radiation also greatly improved when Angstrőm-Prescott model coefficients are adjusted to the study stations. Therefore, when choosing the solar radiation model for evaporation estimation, both data availability and model capability should be considered simultaneously. When applying measured solar radiation for estimating evaporation, evaporation estimates from Penman, FAO Penman-Monteith, and KNF equations are most close to pan evaporation rates in Jeonju and Jeju, Seoul and Mokpo, and Daejeon respectively.

In this study, applicabilities of aerodynamic approaches for the estimation of pan evaporation were evaluated on 56 study stations in South Korea. To accomplish this study purpose, previous researchers' evaporation estimation equations based on aerodynamic approaches were grouped into seven generalized evaporation models. Furthermore, four multiple linear regression (MLR) models were developed and tested. The independent variables of MLR models are meteorological variables such as wind speed, vapor pressure deficit, air temperature, and atmospheric pressure. These meteorological variables are required for the application of aerodynamic approaches. In order to consider the effect of autocorrelation, MLR models were developed after differencing variables. The applicability of MLR models with differenced variables was compared with that of MLR models with undifferenced variables and the comparison results showed no significant difference between the two methods. The study results have indicated that there is strong correlation between estimated pan evaporation (using aerodynamic models and MLR models) and measured pan evaporation. However, pan evaporation are overestimated during August, September, October, November, and December. Most of meteorological variables that are used for MLR models show statistical significance in the estimation of pan evaporation. Vapor pressure deficit was turned out to be the most significant meteorological variable. The second most significant variable was air temperature; wind speed was the third most significant variable, followed by atmospheric pressure.

The Reference Evapotranspiration Calculator Software (REF-ET) supports computational guidelines for the reference evapotranspiration using seventeen FAO Penman-Monteith (PM) equations simultaneously such as the ASCE and FAO standardized forms. The REF-ET can conveniently consider missing data predictions and regional site characterizations, when reference ET is computed on monthly, daily, and hourly time steps. The applicability of the REF-ET was estimated to simulate the reference ET using hourly weather data from Seoul weather station for 29 years. The result found that the FAO24-Rd and 1957-Makk equations closely concerned with solar radiation parameter which were the most highly correlated to reference ET computed by pan coefficient. In addition, the 1957-Makk equation was identified as the most correct computational method for reference ET by analysis of bias and root mean square error. The 1957-Makk equation could predict the reference ET within the error of less than 1.06 mm/day, though all the other equations tended toward overestimation of predicting the reference ET in comparison with refecence ET of pan. The results of this study suggest that the REF-ET will be applicable to support reference ET estimation for a variety of field condition and time-scale.

Evapotranspiration (ET) including evaporation from a land surface and transpiration from photosynthesis of vegetation is a sensitive hydrological factor with outer circumstances. Though both direct measurements with an evaporation pan and a lysimeter, and empirical methods using eddy covariance technique and the Bowen ratio have been widely used to observe ET accurately, they have a limitation that the observation can stand for the exact site, not for an area. In this study, remote sensing technique is adopted to compensate the limitation of ground observation using the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) multispectral sensor mounted on Terra satellite. We improved to evapotranspiration model based on remote sensing (Mu et al., 2007) and estimated Penman-Monteith evapotranspiration considering regional characteristics of Korea that was using only MODIS product. We validated evapotranspiration of Sulma (SMK)/Cheongmi (CFK) flux tower observation and calculation. The results showed high correlation coefficient as 0.69 and 0.74.

우리나라의 연평균강수량은 약 1362 mm이며, 총강수량의 약 30% 이상이 증발산을 통해 손실되고 있다고 추정되어지고 있다. 증발산은 물 수지 분석에 있어 매우 중요한 성분이며, 많은 부분을 차지하지만 다른 요인들에 비해 직접적인 관측이 어려워 과거에는 경험식을 사용하거나 단순하게 가정에 의해 결정해 왔다. 또한 기상자료로부터 증발산량을 추정하거나 증발접시나 추정식으로 잠재증발산을 추정하고 있다. 또한 최근 기후변화의 가속화에 따른 홍수의 가뭄의 강도와 빈도가 높아지고 있으며, 이에 따라 수자원 관리에 있어서 기초수문조사 항목에 많은 변화를 요구하고 있다. 그 결과 2007년 4월 하천법 개정으로 증발산량 및 토양수분량이 기초수문조사 항목으로 추가되었으며, K-water 연구원에서는 용담시험유역에 플럭스타워를 설치하였고 현재 운영 중에 있다. 덕유산 플럭스타워는 용담시험유역 내에 위치한 금강 수계 구량천 상류부의 덕곡제 유역 내에 설치하였으며, 2011년 4월부터 실제 증발산량을 관측하고 있다. 동경 $127^{\circ}$42'23" ~ $127^{\circ}$44'53", 북위 $35^{\circ}$50'47" ~ $35^{\circ}$52'50"사이로 중부지방에 위치한 유일한 증발산관측 타워이다. 유역 면적은 9.27 km2으로 유로연장 3.48 km, 유역 평균폭 2.66 km, 형상계수는 0.77이며, 덕곡제플럭스 타워 주변의 토지이용은 대부분 산림으로 구성되어 있으며, 침활 혼효림과 낙엽송림으로 임상 분포가 이루어져 있다. 주요 관측기기로는 3차원 풍향 풍속계, $CO_2/H_2O$ 기체분석기, 순복사 측정 센서, 지중열플럭스 측정 센서 등이 있다. 2011년부터 측정된 자료를 바탕으로 에디공분산 방법을 이용하여 증발산량을 측정하였으며, 30분간의 데이터 18,000개 중 취득률 90 % 이상의 데이터를 대상을 분석을 실시하였다. 2011 ~ 2015년도 증발산량 분석 결과는 아래의 표와 같다. 증발산의 패턴은 1월부터 서서히 증가하지만 활발하지는 않고, 4월부터 매우 활발해져 8월에 최대치에 이른다. 10월부터 증발산량은 급격히 감소하기 시작하며 11, 12월에는 증발산이 거의 발생하지 않는 공통적인 경향을 보였다. 2013년 8, 9월은 다른 해와 다른 경향을 보이고 있는데, 이는 2013년 8, 9월에 강우가 많이 발생하여 증발산량이 감소하였기 때문으로 판단된다. 2015년 8월은 다른 년도와 비교했을 때, 매우 높은 증발산량을 보이는데 이는 2015년 8월에 많은 강우에도 식생이 활발하게 작용하였기 때문으로 판단된다.

This study performs a daily long-term runoff analysis for 30 years to forecast medium- and long-term probabilistic reservoir inflows on the Soyang River basin. Snowmelt is computed by Anderson's temperature index snowmelt model and potenetial evaporation is estimated by Penman-combination method to produce input data for a rainfall-runoff model. A semi-distributed TOPMODEL which is composed of hydrologic rainfall-runoff process on the headwater-catchment scale based on the original TOPMODEL and a hydraulic flow routing model to route the catchment outflows using by kinematic wave scheme is used in this study It can be observed that the time variations of the computed snowmelt and potential evaporation are well agreed with indirect observed data such as maximum snow depth and small pan evaporation. Model parameters are calibrated with low-flow(1979), medium-flow(1999), and high-flow(1990) rainfall-runoff events. In the model evaluation, relative volumetric error and correlation coefficient between observed and computed flows are computed to 5.64% and 0.91, respectively. Also, the relative volumetric errors decrease to 17% and 4% during March and April with or without the snowmelt model. It is concluded that the semi-distributed TOPMODEL has well performance and the snowmelt effects for the long-term runoff computation are important on the study area.
