Typhoon Ewiniar and Bilis followed by heavy rainfall in July 2006 triggered massive slope failures and debris flows along the Osaek valley within Seoraksan National Park. Since national road 44 is constructed along the fault-line, the susceptibility of hazard in the area is very high. Debris flows in Osaekcheon are mobilized from landslides near the ridgelines and peaks when heavy rainfall elevates pore pressure and adds weight to the hillslopes, causing failure. Stream flows falling onto the existing colluvium or channel-margin deposits also trigger debris flows. Steep slopes constructed along the road and thin regolith in the slope is the main reason for the landslide in the upper stream. In middle reaches of stream, under-fit drainage utilities and narrow bridges cause the overflow, this then triggers debris flow. Overflowing and erosion in the channel margin deposits is main reasons for the debris flow. The intensities and frequencies of heavy rainfall are certain to increase, so early warning and management system for the landslide-related hazard is urgently needed.

Recently, the incidence of flooding in Korea has decreased by the measures by central and local governments, however the scale of damage is increasing due to the improvement of living standard. One of the causes of such flood damage is natural causes such as rainfall exceeding the planned frequency of flood control under climate change. In addition, there are artificial causes such as encroachment of river spaces and management problems in upstream basins without consideration of downstream damage potential by regional development flood. In this study, in order to reduce the inundation damage caused by flooding of river, the situation at the time of inundation damage was reproduced by the detailed topographic data and 2D numerical model. Therefore, the effect of preparing various disaster prevention measures for the lowland was simulated in advance so that quantitative evaluation could be achieved. The target area is Taehwa river basin, where flooding was caused by the flooding of river waters caused by typhoon Chaba in October 2016. As a result of rainfall-discharge and two-dimensional analysis, the simulation results agree with the observed in terms of flood depth, flood arrival time and flooded area. This study examined the applicability of hydraulic analysis on river using two-dimensional inundation model, by applying detailed topographic data and it is expected to contribute to establish of disaster prevention measures.

Recent climage changes have resulted in increases in rainfall intensity and flood frequency as well as the risk of flood damage due to typhoons during the summer season. Water-friendly facilities such as ecological parks and sports facilities have been established on floodplains of rivers since the river improvement project was implemented and increases in the flood levels of rivers due to typhoons can lead to direct flood damage to such facilities. To analyze the hydraulic influence of these water-friendly facilities on floodplains or to evaluate their stability, numerical analysis should be performed in advance. In addition, it is crucial to address the drying and wetting processes generated by water level fluctuations. This study uses a Nays2D model, which analyzes drying and wetting, to examine its applicability to simple terrain in which such fluctuations occur and to natural rivers in which drying occurs. The results of applying this model to sites of actual typhoon events are compared with values measured at water level observatories. Through this comparison, it is determined that values of coefficient of determination ($R^2$), mean absolute error (MAE), and root-mean-square error (RMSE) are 0.988, 0.208, and 0.239, respectively, thus showing a statistically high correlation. In addition, the results are used to calculate flood risk indices for evaluation of such risk for water-friendly facilities constructed on floodplains.

This study analyzed distribution of natural disaster and trend of related climatic elements in mountainous region of Gangwon-do. In mountainous region of Gangwon-do, there have been 27 natural disasters of which heavy rainfall have the leading cause for the last 5 years(16 times in 2003-2007). It has been 9 natural disasters in Jinbu-myeon Pyeongchang-gun, the most frequent area. The mountainous region has been larger natural damage than its surrounding regions and there has been more damage at higher altitudes. While the heavy rainfall have caused damage over the northwest of mountains, most typhoons have damaged southern part of mountains. Most mountainous region suffers from strong wind but damage by snow is small. In mountainous region of Gangwon-do, annual precipitation, intensity of precipitation and heavy rainfall days have been increasing since 2000 and this tendency is significant in its intensity. However, annual snowfall, snowfall days and heavy snowfall days have been clearly decreasing since 2000. In case heavy rainfall accompanies strong wind, the damages are larger in mountainous region of Gangwon-do. Therefore it is important to be prepared for heavy rainfall and strong wind.

2020년의 경우 대기 상층 제트기류가 크게 강화됨에 따라 작은 규모의 저기압의 발달이 평년보다 두 배 이상 증가하였고, 그로 인해 장마가 최대 54일가량 지속되며 1조 371억 원 가량의 대규모 침수피해가 발생하였다. 이와 같이 최근 기후변화로 인한 이상 기후가 빈번하게 발생하고 있으며, 그로 인해 홍수, 태풍과 같은 재난의 강도 및 파급되는 재산피해가 점차 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기후변화를 고려하여 향후 30년간 강우량 변화 추이를 파악하고, 이에 따라 파급되는 재난피해 규모의 증가 추세를 확인하고자 하였다. 기후변화 시나리오는 IPCC AR6(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - Sixth Assessment Report)에서 제시하고 있는 시나리오 중 극한 시나리오인 SSP5-8.5와 안정화 시나리오인 SSP2-4.5 시나리오를 활용하고자 하였다. GCM(General Circulation Model) 자료는 전 지구적 모형으로 공간적 해상도가 낮은 문제가 있기 때문에, 국내 적용을 위해서는 축소기법을 적용해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 공간적 축소를 위해 통계학적 기법 중 인공지능 기법을 적용하고 Reference data와 종관기상관측(ASOS)의 실측 강우 자료(1905 ~ 2014년)를 통해 학습된 모형의 정확도 검증을 수행하였다. 또한 연 강수량과 연도별 홍수피해의 규모 및 빈도를 확인하여 연도별 강수량 증가에 따른 피해 규모의 증가를 관계식을 도출하였다. 이후 최종적인 축소기법으로 모형을 통해 향후 2050년까지 부산광역시의 예측 강우량을 전망하여 연 강수량의 증가량과 피해 규모의 증가량을 전망해보고자 하였다. 본 연구 결과는 부산광역시의 예방단계 재난관리의 일환으로 적응형 기후변화 대책 수립에 기초 자료로써 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Recently due to the typhoon and extreme rainfall induced by abnormal weather and climate change, the probability of severe damage to human life and property is rapidly increasing. Thus it is necessary to create adequate and reliable flood risk map in preparation for those natural disasters. The study area is Seo-gu in Daegu which is located near Geumho river, one of the tributaries of Nakdong river. Inundation depth and velocity at each time were calculated by applying FLUMEN model to the target area of interest, Seo-gu in Daegu. And the research of creating flood risk map was conducted according to the Downstream Hazard Classification Guidelines of USBR. The 2-dimensional inundation analysis for channels and protected lowland with FLUMEN model was carried out with the basic assumption that there's no levee failure against 100 year precipatation and inflow comes only through the overflowing to the protected lowland. The occurrence of overflowing was identified at the levee of Bisan-dong located in Geumho watershed. The level of risk was displayed for house/building residents, drivers and pedestrians using information about depth and velocity of each node computed from the inundation analysis. Once inundation depth map and flood risk map for each region is created with this research method, emergency action guidelines for residents can be systemized and it would be very useful in establishing specified emergency evacuation plans in case of levee failure and overflowing resulting from a flood.

홍수량산정과 관련하여 국내 실무에서 어려움을 겪는 가장 큰 문제는 설계강우의 결정이다. 설계강우와 관련하여 세부적으로 살펴보면 크게 강우의 시간분포(예를 들면 Huff, Mononobe, 교호블록 등), 강우의 공간분포(ARF 적용 등)의 두가지 문제로 집약될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 강우의 시간분포와 공간분포에 관련된 문제를 동시에 해결할 수 있는 방법으로 교호블록형 이동설계강우에 대한 적용 방법을 제안하고 그 적용성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 연구된 강우의 이동속도와 여름철 저기압기단과 태풍의 이동속도 등을 감안하고 나아가 표준화된 방법으로서 적용의 용이성 등을 고려하여 강우의 이동속도 $\upsilonv\;=\;10km/hr$, $\Delta\;=\;10km$ 간격으로 직사각형 띠 형태로 연결되는 이동강우를 채택하였다. 강우의 이동방향은 서$\rightarrow$동, 남$\rightarrow$북, 남서$\rightarrow$북동의 3가지 방향을 기준하였다. 유역특성 이동강우 3가지(서$\rightarrow$동, 남$\rightarrow$북, 남서$\rightarrow$북동)와 정체강우 2가지(유역평균, 유역특성) 등 총 5가지 경우에 대하여 100년 빈도 48시간 설계강우를 한강유역의 분포형 강우-유출 모형에 적용하여 그 결과를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. (1) 정체강우에 있어서 유역평균강우와 유역특성강우에 대한 홍수량 비교를 통하여 해당 유역의 홍수량과 강우량과의 관계를 판단할 수 있었다. 충주댐유역의 경우 한강유역 전체에 대한 평균 100년 빈도 강우가 내린다면 23,000cms까지도 발생할 수 있으나 충주댐유역 100년 빈도에 해당하는 강우량으로는 18,000cms 정도의 홍수량이 발생하여 상대적으로 강우량이 적은 지역으로 나타났다. 반면에 임진강하류부는 한강유역평균강우 보다 더 많은 강우량이 내림으로 인하여 홍수량이 증가하는 유역임을 알 수 있었다. (2) 이동설계강우에 대하여 분석한 결과 유역이 매우 크거나 매우 작으면 강우의 이동방향에 대한 영향이 상대적으로 감소해가는 반면에 중규모 유역에서 상대적으로 영향이 크게 나타났다. 한강하구와 같은 대유역의 경우 여러 방향의 유역들이 유출에 기여하기 때문에 강우의 이동방향에 대한 영향이 상쇄되기 때문으로 분석되었다. 반면에 매우 작은 소유역의 경우는 전체 유역이 단일 강우강도의 영향권에 놓이게 되므로 이동방향의 영향이 나타나지 않는 것으로 나타났다. (3) 정체설계강우와 이동설계강우의 비교를 통하여 한강하구와 같은 대유역의 이동강우에 대한 ARF 효과를 간접 측정할 수 있었다. (4) 정체설계강우 보다 이동설계강우가 오히려 더 큰 첨두홍수량을 발생시키는 유역들이 있었다. 이와 같은 수문현상은 기존 정체형 설계강우로는 분석이 어려운 현상으로서 강우와 유역특성에 대한 보다 심층적인 연구 필용성을 제기하고 있다.

Since the cross-sectional shape of the Nakdong river is compound type, the water stage rises up to the top of the flood plane, as the flow discharge increases during the extreme rain storm in summer. The recent increase of rainfall intensity and flood frequency results in the immersions of parks and hydrophilic facilities located in the flood plain. Therefore it is necessary to analyze the hydraulic characteristics evolved by the extreme rain storm in the flood plain. The study reach ranging from the Gangjeong Goryeong Weir and the Dalseong Weir, where several hydraulic facilities are located along the channel, was selected and numerical simulations were conducted for 42 hours including the peak flood of the typhoon Sanba. The 2-D transient model, FaSTMECH was employed and the accuracy of the model was assessed by comparing the water level between the simulation results and the measured ones at a gauging station. It showed a high correlation with $R^2$ of 0.990, AME of 0.195, and RMSE of 0.252. In addition, the inundation time, the inundation depth, the inundation velocity, and the shear stress variation in the flood plain facilities were analyzed.

Recently frequencies and scales in natural disasters have been significantly increased and enlarged and that leads to increase interests on preventing disasters. As natural disasters occur, it is difficult to fulfill the scale of natural disasters using ordinary stocks in a local government. Thus, it is necessary to establish a system that commonly uses protection resources according to regional characteristics in order to rapidly implement labor mobilization and equipment distribution based on the damage of natural disasters. In this study, regional characteristics in Korea provinces are analyzed and 'a way of composing a local government consortium for common disaster responses' is proposed. First, a disaster map that represents the amount of damage for each local government published in the disaster yearbook from 2002 to 2011 is produced using GIS. Then, the whole land is divided into five different sections according to administrative regions and that are divided into 12 clusters again based on the geographical and humanistic characteristics and the analysis of the scale of damage in typhoons and heavy rainfalls. Finally, disaster protection base stations for each region are selected. The data of analyzing disaster damages may be used as a reference material for establishing disaster prevention plans.

Recent increase in the strength and frequency of typoons due to climate change claims reconsideration of the design wind load in existing design codes for civil engineering structures in which the basic wind speed is estimated based on meteorological data by mid 1990s. In this paper, based on wind speed data at 76 observatories in Korea from 1961 through 2008, the basic wind speeds which can be utilized in designing civil engineering structures including buildings and bridges are estimated using the statistical process. The return period of the wind speed for each location is determined using the Gumbel distribution. The results for considered locations are compared to the existing design codes. Also, for design applications, the wind speed map, which classifies the country into four basic wind speed zones, is proposed using the resulting basic wind speeds.
