Accurate monitoring of snow cover is a key component for studying climate and global as well as for daily weather forecasting and snowmelt runoff modelling. The few observed data related to snowmelt was the major cause of difficulty in extracting snowmelt factors such as snow cover area, snow depth and depletion curve. Remote sensing technology is very effective to observe a wide area. Although many researchers have used remote sensing for snow observation, there were a few discussions on the characteristics of spatial and temporal variation. Snow cover maps were derived from NOAA AVHRR images for the winter seasons from 1997 to 2006. Distributed snow depth was mapped by overlapping between snow cover maps and interpolated snowfall maps from 69 meteorological observation stations. Model parameters (Snow Cover Area: SCA, snow depth, Snow cover Depletion Curve: SDC) were built for 7 major watersheds in South Korea. The decrease pattern of SCA for time (day) was expressed as exponentially decay function, and the determination coefficient was ranged from 0.46 to 0.88. The SCA decreased 70% to 100% from the maximum SCA when 10 days passed.

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.

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.

A statistical model to predict soil temperature from the ambient meteorological factors including mean, maximum and minimum air temperatures, precipitation, wind speed and snow depth combined with Fourier time series expansion was developed with the data measured at the Suwon Meteorolical Service from 1979 to 1988. The stepwise elimination technique was used for statistical analysis. For the yearly oscillation model for soil temperature with 8 terms of Fourier expansion, the mean square error was decreased with soil depth showing 2.30 for the surface temperature, and 1.34-0.42 for 5 to 500-cm soil temperatures. The $r^2$ ranged from 0.913 to 0.988. The number of lag days of air temperature by remainder analysis was 0 day for the soil surface temperature, -1 day for 5 to 30-cm soil temperature, and -2 days for 50-cm soil temperature. The number of lag days for precipitaion, snow depth and wind speed was -1 day for the 0 to 10-cm soil temperatures, and -2 to -3 days for the 30 to 50-cm soil teperatures. For the statistical soil temperature prediction model combined with the yearly oscillation terms and meteorological factors as remainder terms considering the lag days obtained above, the mean square error was 1.64 for the soil surfac temperature, and ranged 1.34-0.42 for 5 to 500cm soil temperatures. The model test with 1978 data independent to model development resulted in good agreement with $r^2$ ranged 0.976 to 0.996. The magnitudes of coeffcicients implied that the soil depth where daily meteorological variables night affect soil temperature was 30 to 50 cm. In the models, solar radiation was not included as a independent variable ; however, in a seperated analysis on relationship between the difference(${\Delta}Tmxs$) of the maximum soil temperature and the maximum air temperature and solar radiation(Rs ; $J\;m^{-2}$) under a corn canopy showed linear relationship as $${\Delta}Tmxs=0.902+1.924{\times}10^{-3}$$ Rs for leaf area index lower than 2 $${\Delta}Tmxs=0.274+8.881{\times}10^{-4}$$ Rs for leaf area index higher than 2.

This study examined the spatial distribution of precipitation in Donghae-Shi. The daily, monthly precipitaion on the 2 stations, 3 AWS(Automatic Weather Station) were analyzed by altitudinal distribution, the air pressure type and days of daily precipitation. The results of the study are as follows. 1 Hour greatest precipitation is 62.4mm(1994. 10. 12), Daily greatest precipitation, 200mm(1994. 10. 12), Monthly greatest precipitation, 355.5mm(1994. 10), Maximum depth of snow fall, 35.5cm(1994. 1. 29) in Donghae-Shi, 1993∼1997. Altitudinal distribution of precipitation in Summer tends to have more precipitation at higher altitude, in Winter, high mountains and coast have more precipitation than other sites do. The heavy rainfall in Donghae-Shi is mainly formed by a Typhoon, next is Jangma front. The number of consecutive days of daily precipitation $\geq$20mm is 81days, 44days of those appeared in Summer season. The synoptic environment causes the difference in observed the heavy snowfall amount between high mountains and coast.
