Soil moisture is affected by regional climate, soil characteristics and land surface condition, etc,. Especially, the changes in land surface condition is more than other factors, which is mainly due to rapid urbanization and industrialization. This study is to evaluate how the change of land surface condition impacts on soil moisture field evolution using a simple model of soil moisture dynamics. For the quantification of soil moisture field, the first half of the paper is spared for the statistical characterization based on the first- and second-order statistics of Washita '92 and Monsoon '90 data. The second half is for evaluating the impact of land cover changes through simulation study using a model for soil moisture dynamics. The model parameters, the loss rate and the diffusion coefficient, have been estimated using the observed data statistics, where the changes of surface conditions are considered into the model by applying various parameter sets with different second-order statistics. This study is concentrated on evaluating the impact due to the changes of land surface condition variability. It is because we could easily quantify the impact of the changes of its areal mean based on the linear reservoir concept. As a result of the study, we found; (1)as the variability of land surface condition, increases, the soil moisture field dries up more easily, (2)as the variabilit y of the soil moisture field is the highest at the beginning of rainfall and decreases as time goes on to show the variability of land surface condition, (3)the diffusion effect due to surface runoff or water flow through the top soil layer is limited to a period of surface runoff and its overall impact is small compared to that of the loss rate field.

지표면 위 에너지 수지, 즉 순 복사에너지가 어떤 비율로 지열, 현열, 잠열로 분할되는지를 이해하는 것은 매우 중요한 문제이지만, 에너지 분할과 주변 환경 변수 사이의 인과관계를 역학적으로 설명하는 것은 난제로 남아있다. 이 연구에서는 지표면 에너지 분할에서 어떠한 조건에서라도 보편적으로 발견되는 특성을 찾아서 다양한 식생 조건에서 관측된 복사에너지 및 열 플럭스 관측소의 자료를 토대로 각 에너지 항의 시간 변동성을 분석했다. 시계열 분석을 위해 공분산 기법을 통해 관측한 현열 및 잠열 자료를 제공하는 Fluxnet 자료를 사용했으며, International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) 구분법에 따라 낙엽수림, 상록수림, 농지 및 사바나에 위치한 관측소의 자료를 비교 분석했다. 모든 관측소에서 에너지 수지에서 현열과 잠열의 합이 전체 순 복사에너지에서 차지하는 비중은 시간에 따라 큰 변화를 보이지 않는다는 특성을 발견했다. 하지만, 현열 또는 잠열이 차지하는 비중은 큰 계절성을 보여주고 있었다. 이를 종합하면 현열과 잠열이 상호보완적으로 발생한다는 것을 의미한다. 한편 시간에 따른 두 열 플럭스의 움직임은 해당 관측소 근처에서 서식하는 식생 특성과 깊게 관련됐음을 확인했다.

일반적으로 도달시간은 지표면 유출의 흐름상태에 의존하며, 대개 중력흐름으로 가정하여 도달시간을 산정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 흐름상태를 중력흐름과 표면장력흐름으로 구분하고 각 흐름을 판단할 수 있는 임계치를 추정하였다. 도달시간 산정을 위해 유역경사와 지표면조고의 영향을 고려할 수 있는 무차원수를 도입하였으며, 이 임계치의 범위에 따라 중력흐름과 표면장력흐름을 구분하고 두 조건의 흐름상태에 따른 도달시간 산정식을 각각 개발하였다. 중력흐름에 의한 도달시간 산정식과 표면장력흐름에 의한 도달시간 산정식을 개발하고 검증하기 위하여 기존 외국에서 실험한 자료를 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과를 통하여 이러한 흐름특성을 고려한 도달시간 산정식을 모형에 적용할 경우 유출모형을 통한 유출량산정의 정확도 향상에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

Soil freezing is a phenomenon arising due to temperature difference between atmosphere and ground, and physical properties of soils vary upon the phase change of soil void from liquid to solid (ice). A heat-transfer mechanism for this case can be explained by the conduction in soil layers and the convection on ground surface. Accordingly, the evaluation of proper thermal properties of soils and the convective condition of ground surface is an important task for understanding freezing phenomenon. To describe convection on ground surface, simplified coefficient methods can be applied to deal with various conditions, such as atmospheric temperature, surface vegetation conditions, and soil constituents. In this study, two methods such as n-factor and convection coefficient for the convective ground surface boundary were applied within a commercial numerical program (TEMP/W) for modeling soil freezing phenomenon. Furthermore, the numerical results were compared to laboratory testing results. In the series of the comparison results, the convection coefficient is more appropriate than n-factor method to model the convective boundary condition.

본 연구에서는 기상청에서 제공하는 인공위성 관측자료와 레이더 자료를 합성하여 예측된 선행시간 2시간의 강수량 예측자료를 이용하여 도시유역의 침수 발생 여부를 확인할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였다. 대상유역은 부산광역시에 위치하고 있는 유역면적 $54km^2$의 온천천유역으로, $10m{\times}10m$의 해상도로 지표면의 침수예측을 수행한다. 침수예측에 이용되는 모델은 지표면과 하수관망 사이의 상호작용을 효과적으로 고려할 수 있도록 지표면 2차원, 하수관망 1차원 모델을 연계하였으며, 침수예측에 소요되는 시간을 최소화하기 위하여 OpenMP기반의 병렬해석 기법을 적용하였다. 또한 초기조건에 의한 오차를 줄이기 위하여 하천수위 관측소에 관측된 수위자료를 예측모델의 초기조건으로 입력할 수 있도록 시스템을 구성하였으며 유역 하류단에서 경계조건으로 활용되는 예측수위자료는 시계열자료의 예측에 뛰어난 성능을 보여주는 것으로 알려진 LongShort-term Memory(LSTM) 기법을 적용하여 이용하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 실시간 도시침수 예측 시스템은 집중호우 발생시 침수 발생 위치를 사전에 빠르게 예측하여 도시유역의 인적 물적 자원의 피해를 저감하는데 적극적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, numerical analysis has been performed to compare the ground movements in a single ground layer and multiple ground layers due to nearby tunnel excavation. The numerical analysis has been conducted in the different ground layer conditions considering different construction conditions (volume loss at excavation face), and the results of the maximum surface settlement and horizontal displacement have been compared considering the ground layer and construction conditions. In addition, the maximum surface settlement from the numerical analysis has been compared with the maximum settlement at tunnel crown considering the ground layer and construction conditions, and the maximum surface settlement has been also compared with the maximum horizontal displacement with the ground layer conditions. Besides, the volume loss($V_L$) at tunnel excavation face has been compared with the total surface settlement volume($V_s$) with the variation of ground layer condition. The results from the numerical analysis have been compared with field measurements and by this comparison it is believed that the numerical results in this study can be utilized practically in analyzing the nearby ground behavior in different ground layer and construction conditions due to tunnel excavation.

Domestic district heating system needs safety management guidelines using the change of surface temperature to detect damages to buried heat pipes. This paper performed numerical analyses on the temperature change of ground surface due to the burial and leakage of heat pipes. Temperature difference between the ground surface above the buried heat pipes and the surrounding surface rises to a crescendo between 3 am and 8 am. It is more significant in winter rather than in summer. Low groundwater level magnifies the temperature increase of the ground surface by the heat pipe, which is smaller in the asphalt pavement than in the bare soil. Without leakage of the buried heat pipe, the temperature increment on the ground surface by the heat pipe is within 3.0℃ in the bare soil and 3.5℃ in the asphalt pavement. Leakage of the supply heat pipe in the bare soil increases the temperature on the ground surface gradually in the summer but rapidly in the winter. Asphalt pavement shows a lower increment and increasing rate of the temperature on the ground surface due to pipe leakage than bare soil surface. And leakage on both sides of the supply pipe takes 1-2 days for the temperature difference from the surrounding soil surface to reach 10℃.

Numerical analysis has been performed to estimate maximum settlement, maximum horizontal displacement and total settlement volume at the ground surface due to tunnel excavation varying ground condition, tunnel depth and diameter, and construction condition (volume loss at excavation face). The maximum surface settlement from the numerical analysis has been compared with the maximum settlement at tunnel crown considering ground condition, tunnel depth and diameter, and construction condition, and it has been also compared with the maximum horizontal displacement. In addition, the volume loss ($V_L$) at tunnel excavation face has been compared with the total surface settlement volume ($V_s$) with the variation of ground condition, tunnel depth, and tunnel diameter. The results from the numerical analysis have been compared with field measurements to confirm the applicability and validity of the results and by this comparison it is believed that the numerical results in this study can be utilized practically in analyzing the ground movements due to tunnel excavation.

In this study, the sensitivity of the mid-infrared radiance to atmospheric and surface factors was analyzed using the radiative transfer model, MODerate resolution atmospheric TRANsmission (MODTRAN6)'s simulation data. The possibility of retrieving the land surface temperature (LST) using only the mid-infrared bands at night was evaluated. Based on the sensitivity results, the LST retrieval algorithm that reflects various factors for night was developed, and the level of the LST retrieval algorithm was evaluated using reference LST and observed LST. Sensitivity experiments were conducted on the atmospheric profiles, carbon dioxide, ozone, diurnal variation of LST, land surface emissivity (LSE), and satellite viewing zenith angle (VZA), which mainly affect satellite remote sensing. To evaluate the possibility of using split-window method, the mid-infrared wavelength was divided into two bands based on the transmissivity. Regardless of the band, the top of atmosphere (TOA) temperature is most affected by atmospheric profile, and is affected in order of LSE, diurnal variation of LST, and satellite VZA. In all experiments, band 1, which corresponds to the atmospheric window, has lower sensitivity, whereas band 2, which includes ozone and water vapor absorption, has higher sensitivity. The evaluation results for the LST retrieval algorithm using prescribed LST showed that the correlation coefficient (CC), the bias and the root mean squared error (RMSE) is 0.999, 0.023K and 0.437K, respectively. Also, the validation with 26 in-situ observation data in 2021 showed that the CC, bias and RMSE is 0.993, 1.875K and 2.079K, respectively. The results of this study suggest that the LST can be retrieved using different characteristics of the two bands of mid-infrared to the atmospheric and surface conditions at night. Therefore, it is necessary to retrieve the LST using satellite data equipped with sensors in the mid-infrared bands.

Boundary conditions for thermal-hydraulic problems of soils play an essential role in the numerical accuracy. This study presents a boundary condition considering the thermo-hydraulic interaction between the ground and the atmosphere. Ground surface energy balance consists of solar radiation, ground radiation, wind convection, latent heat from water evaporation, and heat conduction to the ground. Equations for each heat flux are presented, and numerical analyses are performed in conjunction with the FEM program for the thermal-hydraulic phenomenon of unsaturated soils. Numerical results using the weather data at the Ulsan Meteorological Observatory are similar to the measured surface temperature. Latent heat caused by water evaporation during the daytime lowers the surface temperature of the bare soil, and a thermal equilibrium is reached at nighttime when the effect of the ground condition is significantly reduced. The temperature change of the surface ground is diminished at the deeper ground due to its thermal diffusion. Numerical analysis where the surface ground temperature is the primary concern requires considering the thermo-hydraulic interaction between the ground and the atmosphere.
