A multi-layer simulation program is developed to estimate the ocean current considering sea bottom geometry. The so-called $\sigma$ coordinate system is introduced in vertical direction to describe sea bottom topography more accurately and effectively. Leapfrog scheme combined with Euler backward scheme is used to reduce computation error which may be possibly accumulated in time evolution by Leapfrog scheme alone. In this paper, very simple examples of rectangular basins with various bottom geometries were taken and the effect of sea bottom geometry on vertical structure of the ocean tidal current and its direction were investigated. Through comparisons between the present three dimensional calculation in which bottom topography is directly taken into consideration and the two dimensional calculation in which depth average concept is employed, it was found that magnitude of surface current and its direction could be largely affected by the sea bottom topography, particularly in shallow region with complex bottom shape.

The aim of this study is to analyze the mid-term changes of beach and dune morphology at Sohwang beach, Korea using by Total Station. Measurements executed 4 times during two year. Based on ArcInfo as point cloud obtained through precise measurement data by Total Station, alteration of beach and dune was analyzed at DEM, of which cell size is about 1m. Since these artificial constructions have influenced current systems of this region, the large-scale sand movements above mentioned have occurred around the jetty and the sea-wall. There occurred sedimentation in the north of the Jetty and erosion in the south of the Jetty, which is installed at the central part of object area. The direction of recent topographic development does not coincide with that of wind, and, rather, topographic changes occurred mainly at beaches and dunes due to the transformation of coastal water flow caused by artificial structure nearby. If precise measurement is conducted periodically, and long term monitoring is carried out by installing equipment measuring movement pattern of sediment around artificial structure, cause of topographic change around the object area could be discovered.

최근 저해상도 기상자료를 바탕으로 한 단기간에 내린 폭우나 극심한 가뭄 등과 같은 국지적인 기상 예보는 한계가 있기 때문에 고해상도 기상자료에 대한 수요가 증대되고 있으며, 특히 지형이 복잡한 한반도의 경우 지형적인 영향을 고려한 고해상도 기상자료가 요구되고 있다. 하지만 현재 기상청에서 제공하는 남한 지역의 지상 관측 자료는 약 10km의 불규칙한 간격으로 분포하고 있으며 이는 복잡한 남한지역의 지형 특성을 고려하기에는 해상도가 낮아 상세한 기상 현상을 예측하기 힘들다. 또한, 북한의 경우 사용가능한 관측 자료가 부족하여 한반도 전체를 대상으로 한 기상 예보 및 기후 특성 분석에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 정량적 강수 예측 모형인 QPM(Quantitative Precipitation Model)을 이용하여 3시간 간격의 현재기후(2000-2014년)에 대한 한반도 지역의 1km 강우 자료를 복원하였다. 관측 자료가 부족한 북한의 경우 재분석 자료를 이용하여 1km 해상도의 강우 자료를 복원하였다. 이를 위해 몇 가지 특정한 강우 Case를 선별하였고, QPM 수행 시 필요한 강수, 상대습도, 지위고도, 연직 기온, 연직 바람장 등의 변수에 대하여 남한 지역에 해당하는 지점의 여러 재분석 자료와 실제 남한 지역의 지상/고층 관측 자료와의 비교 및 Correlation 분석을 통해 가장 적절하다고 판단되는 재분석 자료인 NASA에서 제공하는 MERRA Reanalysis data를 선정하였다. 또한, 소규모 지형효과를 고려하기 위한 상세 지형자료로 고해상도 지형 자료인 DEM(*Digital Elevation Model) 1km 자료를 사용하였다. 한반도의 강우를 복원하기 위하여 Barnes 기법을 이용하여 불규칙적으로 분포해 있는 강수량 데이터를 규칙적인 자료로 격자화 하였고, 격자화 한 10km 해상도의 자료를 QPM을 통해 복잡한 지형 특성을 고려한 1km 해상도의 강우 자료로 복원하였다. 또한, QPM의 모의 성능을 검증하기 위하여, 위에서 선별한 특정 강우 Case에 대하여 복원한 1km 강우자료와 200m 이내의 거리에서 겹치는 지상관측자료와의 비교를 통하여 모의 성능을 검증하였다. 본 연구를 통해 복원된 한반도 상세 강우 자료를 통해 통일을 대비한 기상, 농 수산업, 수자원 등 다양한 분야에서 활용 될 수 있으며, 국지적인 폭우 및 가뭄 등의 이상 기상 현상을 분석하는 데 참고 기초 자료로써 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This work is to describe the geomorphological landscapes of of Dongcheon-gugok in Korea, and attempts to develop a basic data for traditional natural heritage. Dongcheon-gugok is a union of natural lanscape and human mind-activity. Therefore the study of natural landscape, which consists of geomorphological landscapes, provides a basic data for the use and conservation of traditional natural heritage. Dongcheon-gugok in Korea is almost distributed in the valley of mountainous areas of Taeback and Soback Mountain Ranges. The bedrocks of the areas of Dongcheon-gugok are almost granitic rocks and sedimentary rocks. The landscapes of Dongcheon-gugok is characterized by narrow meandering valley, so Gugok means nine-bended river. The elements of the geomorphological features is a broad flat rock with sheeting joints, joint-block seperated large blocks or tor, steep slope and rocky cliffs, pool, ripple, large or small scale waterfall, pot-hole, etc.

The study area is a slope in Dogye-eup, Samcheok-si, Gangwon-do. The cutting method was applied to this slope for stabilization in 2009 due to the influence of the waste-rock dump located at the top of slope. Recently, soil cracks and creep have occurred on this slope, and the drainage channel was damaged. Therefore, it was analyzed the topography change through photogrammetry using a UAV. Orthophotos were taken in April and October 2019 respectively. From the Orthophots, Digital Surface Model (DSM) was extracted. Time series analysis was performed by comparing each DSM. The topography of October was pushed forward while maintaining the topography of April. Through these features, it is judged that the soil creep is occurring in this study area.

The purpose of this study is to determine the weights of the factors for landslide susceptibility analysis using artificial neural network. Landslide locations were identified from interpretation of aerial photographs, field survey data, and topography. The landslide-related factors such as topographic slope, topographic curvature, soil drainage, soil effective thickness, soil texture, wood age and wood diameter were extracted from the spatial database in study area, Yongin. Using these factors, the weights of neural networks were calculated by backpropagation training algorithm and were used to determine the weight of landslide factors. Therefore, by interpreting the weights after training, the weight of each landslide factor can be ranked based on its contribution to the classification. The highest weight is topographic slope that is 5.33 and topographic curvature and soil texture are 1 and 1.17, respectively. Weight determination using backprogpagation algorithms can be used for overlay analysis of GIS so the factor that have low weight can be excluded in future analysis to save computation time.

Recently, it has been strangely increasing rainfall and rainfall meter by global warming. so flood damage is being increase. It has happened there are so many damaged by influence by backwater of dam. However, the alleviative solutions of flood damages are focused on the lower river basin where the density of population is higher than upper river basin. This research proceeds based on design and build 3D topography model and reflects the topographical factors of upper river basin. It also simulated the circumstances of flooding by investigation of factors of outflow, hence, as a result, we would find out the vulnerable area for flooding and scale of damages effectively. This research suggests the solution and method of flooding for vulnerable area of the flooding to reduce the damages by predicting flooding. Thus, the suggestion may support to make a decision efficiently to prevent the damage of flooding.

Seabed deformation due to the fault failure have both a spatial variation and temporal history. When the faulting process initiates at a certain point beneath seabed, the failure spreads out to neighboring points, resulting in temporal changes of deformation. In particular, such a process induces tsunami waves from the vertical motion of seabed. The uprising speed of seabed affects the formation of initial surface profile, eventually altering the arrival time and runup of tsunamis at the coast. In this work, we developed a numerical model that can simulate the generation and propagation of tsunami waves by considering the horizontal and vertical changes of seabed in an active and dynamic manner. For the verification of the model, it was applied to the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake in Japan and the results confirmed that the accuracy was improved compared to the existing passive and static model.

Recently, as the development of underground spaces has become active due to rapid urbanization and population density, interest in the ground behavior according to the construction of underground spaces is increasing. In large cities with high population density and many buildings, ground subsidence has a great impact on structures and there may be a risk of collapse, so the analysis of ground behavior due to underground construction is essential. Previous studies have been conducted on the subsidence pattern of the surface and the deformation of the tunnel when constructing the tunnel, but analysis has rarely been conducted by using actual topographic information. Therefore, this study analyzed the difference in ground behavior between the actual topography and the flat topography. As a result, it was confirmed that ground settlement occurs at higher elevations, such as in mountainous topography, and when the numerical analysis is performed considering topographical information, the crown settlement of the tunnel is up to about approx. It showed a difference of 10 mm, and it was found that the sensitivity was less in the case of displacement of tunnel wall compared to the crown settlement and ground settlement. The numerical analysis considering the actual GIS-based topographic information presented in this study can be used to obtain more accurate surface subsidence data to understand the behavior of the upper structure due to tunnel excavation.
