기후변화로 인한 사회, 경제, 자원, 환경, 수자원 등에 영향분석은 세계적인 연구 트렌드로 자리 잡고 있다. 다양한 모형들이 기후변화 영향을 효과적으로 평가하기 위해서 개발되고 있으나 주로 강우-유출 모형을 통한 유출의 변화 특성을 모의하는데 대부분의 연구가 초점을 맞추고 있다. 그러나 기본적으로 사용되는 강수량자료의 정확한 추정이 기후변화 연구에서 가장 중요하다고 해도 과언이 아니다. 이러한 관점에서 GCM 기후모형으로부터 유도된 기후변화 시나리오로부터 여러 단계로 가공하여 모형의 입력 자료로 사용하기 위한 강수량 자료를 생산하게 된다. 이러한 과정을 총칭해서 Downscaling이라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 기후모형으로 얻은 정보를 유역단위의 수문시나리오로 변환하기 위한 통계학적 Downscaling의 연구이론 변천 상황을 종합적으로 검토하고 각 모형이 갖는 장단점을 분석하고자 한다. 즉, Weather Generator, Single-site Nonstationary Markov Chain, Multi-site Nonstationary Markov Chain, Multi-site Weather State Based Markov Model 등 다양한 모델의 변화 및 진보 과정을 살펴보고 실제 국내 유역에 적용하여 모형의 타당성을 평가해보고자 한다. 이를 위해 IPCC 기후변화 시나리오를 활용하였으며 일강수량자료계열의 특성치, 극치수문량 변동특성 등 기후변화에 따른 영향분석을 일부 실시하여 분석하였다.

From the General Circulation Models(GCMs), it is known that the increases of concentrations of greenhouse gases will have significant implications for climate change in global and regional scales. The GCM has an uncertainty in analyzing the meteorologic processes at individual sites and so the 'downscaling' techniques are used to bridge the spatial and temporal resolution gaps between what, at present, climate modellers can provide and what impact assessors require. This paper describes a method for assessing local climate change impacts using a robust statistical downscaling technique. The method facilitates the rapid development of multiple, low-cost, single-site scenarios of daily surface weather variables under current and future regional climate forcing. The construction of climate change scenarios based on spatial regression(transfer function) downscaling and on the use of a local stochastic weather generator is described. Regression downscaling translates the GCM grid-box predictions with coarse resolution of climate change to site-specific values and the values were then used to perturb the parameters of the stochastic weather generator in order to simulate site-specific daily weather values. In this study, the global climate change scenarios are constructed using the YONU GCM control run and transient experiments.

Inversion result of geophysical data given as a block type was geostatistically simulated with borehole observation given as a point type and was applied to the rock classifying map. The geophysical data generally involved secondary information for the target material and were obtained for overall region. In contrast, borehole data provided direct information for the target material, but tended to be effective only for a narrow range of region and were dealt as a point type. Integrated simulation or kriging interpolation of these two different kinds of information required the covariance for point-point, point-block and block-block. Using the Bssim module included in SGeMS software, integrated result of geophysical data and borehole data were obtained. The results were then compared with the method of geostatistical inversion proposed by authors. Downscaling method used in this study showed relatively more flexible than the geostatistical inversion.

수자원 분야의 기후변화 연구에서 유출분석을 위한 장기유출모형의 입력자료로 일단위의 기상자료가 요구된다. 이러한 일자료의 생성을 위해 통계학적 다운스케일링 기법 중 추계학적 기상모의모형이 가장 널리 적용되고 있다. 또한, 유역단위의 합리적 유출분석을 위해서는 기상모의모형을 이용한 일자료 발생시 기상관측지점 간의 공간상관성 확보가 선행되어야 한다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 다지점 추계학적 기상모형의 개발 및 적용에 앞서 기존모형의 강우 발생과 크기와 관련된 주요요소들의 공간적인 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 국내 기상청 지점의 관측자료를 중심으로 모형의 강우발생과 관련된 강우/무강우 발생확률, 강우크기와 관련된 월강우량의 평균값, 월평균 강우량의 표준편차, 왜곡도를 산정하였다. 이를 중심으로 전국에 걸친 공간특성 분석을 통하여 다지점 추계학적 기상모의모형의 개발 및 적용시 고려해야 될 사항을 도출하고자 하였다.

The stationary Markov chain model has been widely used as a daily rainfall simulation model. A main assumption of the stationary Markov model is that statistical characteristics do not change over time and do not have any trends. In other words, the stationary Markov chain model for daily rainfall simulation essentially can not incorporate any changes in mean or variance into the model. Here we develop a Non-stationary hidden Markov chain model (NHMM) based stochastic downscaling scheme for simulating the daily rainfall sequences, using general circulation models (GCMs) as inputs. It has been acknowledged that GCMs perform well with respect to annual and seasonal variation at large spatial scale and they stand as one of the primary sources for obtaining forecasts. The proposed model is applied to daily rainfall series at three stations in Nakdong watershed. The model showed a better performance in reproducing most of the statistics associated with daily and seasonal rainfall. In particular, the proposed model provided a significant improvement in reproducing the extremes. It was confirmed that the proposed model could be used as a downscaling model for the purpose of generating plausible daily rainfall scenarios if elaborate GCM forecasts can used as a predictor. Also, the proposed NHMM model can be applied to climate change studies if GCM based climate change scenarios are used as inputs.

It is necessary to develop an integration model which can account for various data acquired at different measurement scales in environmental thematic mapping with high-resolution ground survey data and relatively low-resolution remote sensing data. This paper presents and applies a multi-scale geostatistical methodology for downscaling of thematic maps generated from lowresolution remote sensing data. This methodology extends a traditional ordinary kriging system to a block kriging system which can account for both ground data and remote sensing data which can be regarded as point and block data, respectively. In addition, stochastic simulation based on block kriging is also applied to describe spatial uncertainty attached to the downscaling. Two downscaling experiments including SRTM DEM and MODIS Leaf Area Index (LAI) products were carried out to illustrate the applicability of the geostatistical methodology. Through the experiments, multi-scale geostatistics based on block kriging successfully generated relatively high-resolution thematic maps with reliable accuracy. Especially, it is expected that multiple realizations generated from simulation would be effectively used as input data for investigating the effects of uncertain input data on GIS model outputs.

A stationary Markov chain model is a stochastic process with the Markov property. Having the Markov property means that, given the present state, future states are independent of the past states. The Markov chain model has been widely used for water resources design as a main tool. A main assumption of the stationary Markov model is that statistical properties remain the same for all times. Hence, the stationary Markov chain model basically can not consider the changes of mean or variance. In this regard, a primary objective of this study is to develop a model which is able to make use of exogenous variables. The regression based link functions are employed to dynamically update model parameters given the exogenous variables, and the model parameters are estimated by canonical correlation analysis. The proposed model is applied to daily rainfall series at Seoul station having 46 years data from 1961 to 2006. The model shows a capability to reproduce daily and seasonal characteristics simultaneously. Therefore, the proposed model can be used as a short or mid-term prediction tool if elaborate GCM forecasts are used as a predictor. Also, the nonstationary Markov chain model can be applied to climate change studies if GCM based climate change scenarios are provided as inputs.

일반적으로 미래 기후자료를 산출하기 위하여 기후 시스템을 수치화한 GCM에 의한 결과를 사용한다. 하지만 GCM의 시공간적인 해상도의 문제로 기후변화에 따른 수자원 영향 분석을 위해서는 축소기법의 적용과정이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 전세계적으로 통계학적 방법에 의한 일기발생기를 이용한 축소기법 방법이 많이 이용되고 있다. 하지만 일기발생기에 의한 방법은 월 평균값의 연간 변동성이나 계절적 변화를 재현하는데 한계가 있는 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 일기 발생기의 한계가 강우의 발생 특성이 평균과 표준편차로 대표되는 통계학적 기법에 근거하고 있기 때문이라고 파악하였다. 따라서 최저온도, 최고온도, 강수량, 상대습도, 풍속, 일사량과 같이 6개의 기상자료를 선정하여 비선형 관계를 고려할 수 있는 기법을 적용하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 SRES A1B 기후변화 시나리오에 의한 CNCM3 기후모형의 결과를 이용하였고 각 관측소 마다 다양하게 발생하는 강우 특성은 과거의 강우 특성과 유사할 것이라는 가정하에 공간적 축소기법으로 인공 신경망(ANN: Artificial Neural Network) 을 적용하고 시간적 축소기법으로 최근린(NN: Nearest Neighbor) 방법과 유전자 알고리즘(GA: Genetic Algorithm)을 적용하는 기법을 함께 제시하였다. 이러한 기법들을 실제 남한강 유역의 기상관측소 지점으로 적용하여 검증한 결과 모의된 대부분의 기상자료가 관측치를 비교적 잘 재현하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 비선형 축소기법은 추후 기후변화 연구에 중요한 방법론으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate and evaluate the impact of climate change on the runoff and water resources of Yongdam basin. First, we construct global climate change scenarios using the YONU GCM control run and transient experiments, then transform the YONV GCM grid-box predictions with coarse resolution of climate change into the site-specific values by statistical downscaling techniques. The values are used to modify the parameters of the stochastic weather generator model for the simulation of the site-specific daily weather time series. The weather series fed into a semi-distributed hydrological model called SLURP to simulate the streamflows associated with other water resources for the condition of $2CO_2$. This approach is applied to the Yongdam dam basin in southern part of Korea. The results show that under the condition of $2CO_2$, about 7.6％ of annual mean streamflow is reduced when it is compared with the observed one. And while Seasonal streamflows in the winter and autumn are increased, a streamflow in the summer is decreased. However, the seasonality of the simulated series is similar to the observed pattern.

This paper presents a two-stage geostatistical integration approach that aims at downscaling of coarse scale remote sensing data. First, downscaling of the coarse scale sedoncary data is implemented using area-to-point kriging, and this result will be used as trend components on the next integration stage. Then simple kriging with local varying means that integrates sparse precise observation data with the downscaled data is applied to generate thematic information at a finer scale. The presented approach can not only account for the statistical relationships between precise observation and secondary data acquired at the different scales, but also to calibrate the errors in the secondary data through the integration with precise observation data. An experiment for precipitation mapping with weather station data and TRMM (Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission) data acquired at a coarse scale is carried out to illustrate the applicability of the presented approach. From the experiment, the geostatistical downscaling approach applied in this paper could generate detailed thematic information at various finer target scales that reproduced the original TRMM precipitation values when upscaled. And the integration of the downscaled secondary information with precise observation data showed better prediction capability than that of a conventional univariate kriging algorithm. Thus, it is expected that the presented approach would be effectively used for downscaling of coarse scale data with various data acquired at different scales.
