Regional rainfall quantile depends on the identification of hydrologically homogeneous regions. Various variables relevant to precipitation can be used to form regions. Since the type and number of variables may lead to improve the efficiency of partitioning, it is important to select those precipitation related variables, which represent most of the information from all candidate variables. Multivariate analysis techniques can be used for this purpose. Procrustes analysis which can decrease the dimension of variables based on their correlations, are applied in this study. 42 rainfall related variables are decreased into 21 ones by Procrustes analysis. Factor analysis is applied to those selected variables and then 5 factors are extracted. Fuzzy-c means technique classifies 68 stations into 6 regions. As a result, the GEV distributions are fitted to 6 regions while the lognormal and generalized logistic distributions are fitted to 5 regions. For the comparison purpose with previous results, rainfall quantiles based on generalized logistic distribution are estimated by at-site frequency analysis, index flood method, and regional shape estimation method.

Variability of precipitation pattern and intensity are increasing due to the urbanization and industrialization which induce increasing impervious area and the climate change. Therefore, more severe urban inundation and flood damage will be occurred by localized heavy precipitation event in the future. In this study, we analyze the future frequency based precipitation under climate change based on the regional frequency analysis. The observed precipitation data from 58 stations provided by Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA) are collected and the data period is more than 30 years. Then the frequency based precipitation for the observed data by regional frequency analysis are estimated. In order to remove the bias from the simulated precipitation by RCP scenarios, the quantile mapping method and outlier test are used. The regional frequency analysis using L-moment method(Hosking and Wallis, 1997) is performed and the future frequency based precipitation for 80, 100, and 200 years of return period are estimated. As a result, future frequency based precipitation in South Korea will be increased by 25 to 27 percent. Especially the result for Jeju Island shows that the increasing rate will be higher than other areas. Severe heavy precipitation could be more and more frequently occurred in the future due to the climate change and the runoff characteristics will be also changed by urbanization, industrialization, and climate change. Therefore, we need prepare flood prevention measures for our flood safety in the future.

For the design of infrastructures controlling the flood events at ungauged basins, this study tries to find the regional flood frequencies using peak flow data generated by the spatial extension of flood records. The Chungju Dam watershed is selected to validate the possibility of regional flood frequency analysis using the spatially extended flood data. Firstly, based on the index flood method, the flood event data from the spatial extension method is evaluated for 22 mid/smaller sub-basins at the Chungju Dam watershed. The homogeneity of the Chungju dam watershed was assessed in terms of the different size of watershed conditions such as accumulated and individual sub-basins. Based on the result of homogeneity analysis, this watershed is heterogeneous with respect to individual sub-basins because of the heterogeneity of rainfall distribution. To decide the regional probability distribution, goodness-of fit measure and weighted moving averages method from flood frequency analysis were adopted. Finally, GEV distribution was selected as a representative distribution and regional quantile were estimated. This research is one step further method to estimate regional flood frequency for ungauged basins.

강우는 수문 현상을 구성하는 가장 기본적인 요소로, 관측된 강우 자료의 정확한 분석 결과는 수자원 정책과 계획·관리에 합리적 판단 근거로 작용한다. 강원도는 지난 2002년 태풍 루사로 인하여 일 강수량 870.5mm의 폭우가 기록된 지역으로, 극한 강우로 인한 막대한 피해가 해마다 발생하고 있다. 특히, 강원도 지역은 태백산맥 중심의 산악지형과 동해의 영향을 직·간접적으로 받는 강우 사상의 특성이 집중호우, 폭설 등으로 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 강원도 지역 극한 강우의 통계적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 국가수자원관리종합정보시스템에서 제공하는 강우 자료를 수집하여 분석하였다. 또한, 최근 5년간 극한 강우의 변동 특성을 정량적으로 분석하고자 2022년까지의 자료를 구축하여 기존 『홍수량 산정 표준 지침』 작성 시 산정한 결과(2017년까지의 자료)와 비교·분석하였다. L-모멘트법 기반의 Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) 분포형을 이용하였고, 지역빈도해석을 수행하여 확률강우량을 산정하였다.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze design flood estimation methods which are the basis for determining the size of a flood control structure. The result from a flood frequency analysis which is considered as the best way for estimating design flood was assumed as a true value, and a method of simulating runoff and performing frequency analysis of the maximum discharge data were compared with a design storm method. For a comparative analysis of design flood estimation, seven basins (Namgang reservoir basin, Soyanggang reservoir basin, Andong reservoir basin, Seomjingang reservoir basin, Imha reservoir basin, Chungju reservoir basin, Hapcheon reservoir basin) were selected. For the Seomjingang, Hapcheon, and Imha reservoir basins, the method proposed in this study showed better results, whereas the conventional method showed better results for the Namgang, Soyanggang, and Chungju reservoir basins. The results show that the conventional method (the design storm method) is not the best way for estimating design flood and the proposed method can be used as an alternative for small basins.

This study aimed to estimate the future design rainfall through a non-stationary frequency analysis using the rainfall separation technique. First, we classified rainfall in the Korean Peninsula into local downpour and TC-induced rainfall through rainfall separation technique based on the path and size of a typhoon. Furthermore, we performed the analysis of regional rainfall characteristics and trends. In addition, we estimated the future design rainfall through a non-stationary frequency analysis using Gumbel distribution and carried out its quantitative comparison and evaluation. The results of the analysis suggest that the increase and decrease rate of rainfall in the Korean Peninsula were different and the increasing and decreasing tendencies were mutually contradictory at some points. In addition, a non-stationary frequency analysis was carried out by using the rainfall separation technique. The outcome of this analysis suggests that a relatively reasonable future design rainfall can be estimated. Comparing total rainfall with the future design rainfall, differences were found in the southern and eastern regions of the Korean peninsula. This means that climate change may have a different effect on the typhoon and local downpour. Thus, in the future, individual assessment of climate change impacts needs to be done through moisture separation. The results presented here are applicable in future hydraulic structures design, flood control measures related to climate change, and policy establishment.

A standard typhoon, which results in extreme wind speeds having various return period, can be reconstructed by combination of typhoon parameter informations(Kang et al., 2016). The aim of this study is to present a kind of surge-frequency analysis method by numerical simulation of a standard typhoon at Yeonggwang. MIKE21 was adopted as a numerical model and was proved to simulate the surge phenomena of the typhoon BOLAVEN(1215) well at several sites of the Western Coast. The simulation results with change of typhoon track which reflects typhoon-surge characteristics of the Western Coast show to have something in common with the observational results. This method is considered to be very efficient method on the point of simulating only one typhoon, while existing methods need to simulate a lot of typhoons.

본 연구는 경북지역의 11개 관측소와 인근 9개의 관측소의 강우자료를 이용하여 경북지역에 한정된 확률강우량도를 작성하였다. 최근 행정구역별 치수계획의 수립이 빈번해지고 소규모 유역의 개발로 인한 홍수량 산정 등이 빈번해지고 있다. 그러나 대부분이 강우관측소가 유역내에 위치해 있지 않고 인접한 기상관측소의 자료를 이용하고 있는 실정이고, 공공기관이나 실무를 수행함에 있어 유역의 강우량 적용에 있어 소규모 유역의 강우량이 지점강우량에 의해 결정되므로 어느 정도의 편차를 보이는지 추정이 사실상 곤란하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 경북지역에 한정하여 지점강우량을 빈도해석하여 확률강우량도를 작성하여 강우관측소가 인접하지 않아도 소규모 유역의 확률강우량의 근사치를 추정하여 지점빈도해석과 비교할 수 있도록 확률강우량도를 작성하였다. 경북지역인근 강우관측소의 자료를 강우 분석하여 확률분포형을 선정한 결과 거창, 구미, 대구, 문경, 밀양, 봉화, 안동, 영덕, 영주, 울산, 의성, 제천 충주, 추풍령, 합천은 Gumbel 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타났으며, 보은은 2변수 Log-Gumbel 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타났으며, 영천, 울진, 태백은 Gamma 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타나고 포항은 GEV 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타났다.
