장시간의 강수부족으로부터 야기되는 가뭄은 다른 자연재해에 비하여 하나의 물리적인 특성으로 표현하기에는 한계가 있다. 이러한 가뭄의 특성을 파악하기 위하여 다양한 지수들이 사용되고 있으며, 각각의 지수는 기후적 혹은 물리적 특성 등을 반영하여 가뭄을 평가하고 있다. 다양한 가뭄지수중 SPI(Standardized Precipitation Index)는 가뭄 발생에 있어 가장 중요한 요소를 차지하는 강수를 이용하여 가뭄을 평가하고 있으며, 비교적 간단한 방법으로 계산되어지며 다양한 기관에서 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 무강수일수와 선행강수조건에 따른 영향을 고려한 개선된 SPI 지수를 제시하고 가뭄감지능력을 기존의 가뭄지수와 비교 분석 하였다. 무강수일수의 고려를 위하여 월 최대 무강수일수의 확률분포를 구하고 이를 다시 누적확률분포로 나타냄으로서 기존에 가뭄지수에 무강수일수의 영향을 추가할 수 있는 가중치를 생성하였다. 또한 추가적으로 월 최대 무강수일의 시점을 전기, 중기, 후기로 구분하여 각각의 기간에 따라 가중치를 변환하여 수행하였다. 이전의 강수효과를 고려하기 위하여 15일 이전의 강수를 성수기와 비성수기로 구분하고 각각의 기간에 강수량에 따른 가중치를 세분하여 기존의 가뭄지수에 추가하였다. 기존의 가뭄지수와 새롭게 제시된 가뭄지수의 평가를 위하여 ROC분석을 사용하였으며, ROC분석은 실제 발생했던 사실과 산정된 값을 평가하는 방법으로 본 연구에서는 과거 실제 방생한 가뭄기록과 산정된 지수의 수치를 4가지의 범주로 나누어 분석하였다. 평가 기간은 1973년부터 2009년까지이며, 사용된 자료는 우리나라 기상청의 76개 지상관측지점 중 섬 지역 7개를 제외한 69개 지점의 정보를 이용하였다. 분석결과 기존의 SPI3에 비하여 전반적으로 향상된 가뭄감지능력을 보여주었다. 무강수일수와 선행강수효과를 이용한 가뭄지수의 가중치 생성은 SPI3 뿐만 아니라 다양한 지수에 적용되어 사용성이 높아 뛰어난 가뭄감지능력을 가지는 가뭄지수 개발에 효과적으로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

수자원장기종합계획(2006)에 따르면, 우리나라는 물부족이 예상이 되고 있고, 이러한 물부족 현상은 기후변화의 영향으로 더욱 악화될 것으로 예상된다. 기후변화에 따른 물부족에 대응하기 위해서는 현행 지표수 및 지하수(Blue Water) 위주의 수자원관리와 더불어 그전에는 수자원으로 인식되지 않았던 토양수(Green Water)를 새로운 개념의 수자원으로 인식하는 것이 필요하다. 토양수는 현재 물사용량 중에서 가장 많은 비중을 차지하는 농업용수 부분에 효율적으로 활용하면, 지표수나 지하수와 같은 수자원을 대체하는 효과가 있다. 기후변화에 따른 물부족에 대응한 토양수의 효율적 활용을 위해서는, 과거 뿐아니라 미래의 지역별 시기별 토양수 공간분포특성을 분석하는 것이 선행되어야 한다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 토양수의 분석을 통한 미래 물부족 해결에 도움이 될 새로운 수자원 관리의 기틀을 마련하기 위해 토양수 분포특성분석모델을 개발하고, 이를 활용해 과거 및 미래의 토양수의 공간분포특성을 분석한다. 토양수 분포특성분석모델은 선행 5일간의 일 강우데이터 값을 표준선행강우지표(Normalized Antecedent Precipitation Index)에 적용하여 일 단위 토양수 상태(Wet, Average, Dry condition)를 계산하는 모델이다. 과거 토양수 분석에는 인공위성 강우데이터(Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission 3B42)를, 미래 토양수 분석을 위해서는 기상청에서 제공하는 국가표준 기후변화 시나리오(A1B)를 각각 사용하여, 과거 데이터는 27km의 격자로, 미래는 25km 격자크기로 한반도 전체의 일 단위 토양수 상태를 계산했다. 계산된 토양수 결과를 활용해 연 월별 그리고 토양수를 쓸 수 있는 시기, 즉 식물이 자라는 시기(4-9월)의 특성을 분석했다. 이를 통해 향후 기후변화에 따른 물부족 대응 토양수 수자원 활용방안에 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다.

Increased Non-permeable areas which have resulted from civilization reduce the volume of groundwater infiltration that is one of the important factors causing water shortage during a dry season. Thus, seeking the efficient method to analyze the volume of groundwater in accurate should be needed to solve water shortage problems. In this study, two different watersheds were selected and precipitation, soil group, and land use were surveyed in a particular year in order to figure out the accuracy of estimated infiltration recharge ratio compared to Web-based Hydrograph Analysis Tool (WHAT). The volume of groundwater was estimated considering Antecedent soil Moisture Condition (AMC) and Curve Number (CN) using Long Term Hydrologic Impact Assessment (L-THIA) model. The results of this study showed that in the case of Kyoung-an watershed, the volume of both infiltration and baseflow seperated from WHAT was 46.99% in 2006 and 33.68% in 2007 each and in Do-am watershed the volume of both infiltration and baseflow was 33.48% in 2004 and 23.65% in 2005 respectively. L-THIA requires only simple data (i.e., land uses, soils, and precipitation) to simulate the accurate volume of groundwater. Therefore, with convenient way of L-THIA, researchers can manage watershed more effectively than doing it with other models. L-THIA has limitations that it neglects the contributions of snowfall to precipitation. So, to estimate more accurate assessment of the long term hydrological impacts including groundwater with L-THIA, further researches about snowfall data in winter should be considered.

Low impact development (LID) is a widely used technology that aims to reduce the peak flow volume and amount of pollutants in stormwater runoff while introducing physicochemical, biological or a combination of both mechanisms in order to improve water quality. This research aimed to determine the effect of hydrologic factors in removing the pollutants on stormwater runoff by an LID facility. Monitored storm events from 2010-2018 were analysed to evaluate the hydraulic and hydrological performance of a small constructed wetland (SCW). Standard methods for the examination water and wastewater were employed to assess the water quality of the collected samples (APHA et al, 1992). Primary hydrologic data were obtained from the Korea Meteorological Administration. The recorded average rainfall intensity and antecedent dry days (ADD) of SCW were 5.26 mm/hr and 7 days respectively. During the highest rainfall event (27 mm/hr), the removal efficiency of SCW for all the pollutants was ranging from 67% to 91%. While on the lowest rainfall event (0.7 mm/hr), the removal efficiency was ranging from -36% to 62%. Rainfall intensity has a significant effect to the removal efficiencies of each facility due to its dilution factor. In addition to that, there was no significant correlation of ADD to the mean concentrations of pollutants. Generally, stormwater runoff contains significant amount of pollutants that can cause harmful effects to the environment if not treated. Also, the component of this LID facility such as pre-treatment zone, media filters and vegetation contributed to the effectivity of the LID facilities in reducing the amounts of pollutants present in stormwater runof.

Seven heavy metal concentrations (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn) were continuously analyzed for twenty rainfall events in 2017~2018 in an urban basin. The overall and dynamic correlations between runoff characteristics and heavy metal concentrations were examined. The peak metal concentration generally appeared in the initial runoff but found to be delayed when the rainfall intensity was low. The rainfall duration had no relationship with either heavy metal concentrations or their total mass. Dynamics of heavy metal mass (load), with the exception of Cu and Zn, showed strong correlation with the 30 minute rainfall intensity (0.60~0.88) and runoff volume (0.74~0.89). While event mean concentration (EMC) showed positive correlation (0.54~0.73) with antecedent dry days (ADD), no significant relationship was found between runoff volume and pollutant concentration. This implies that the pollutants built up on the surface during dry days are washed off even with low rainfall energy. The dynamics of heavy metal and TSS concentrations showed good correlation (0.68~0.87). This result shows that the metals are transported along with solid particles as adsorbate in surface runoff. Regular street sweeping will reduce significant amount of heavy metal loads in urban surface runoff.

Potential maximum soil moisture retention (S) is a dominant parameter in the Soil Conservation Service (SCS; now called the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)) runoff Curve Number (CN) method commonly used in hydrologic modeling for event-based flood forecasting (SCS, 1985). Physically, S represents the depth [L] soil could store water through infiltration. The depth of soil moisture retention will vary depending on infiltration from previous rainfall events; an adjustment is usually made using a factor for Antecedent Moisture Conditions (AMCs). Application of the method for continuous simulation of multiple storms has typically involved updating the AMC and S. However, these studies have focused on a time step where S is allowed to vary at daily or longer time scales. While useful for hydrologic events that span multiple days, this temporal resolution is too coarse for short-term applications such as flash flood events. In this study, an approach for deriving a time-variable potential maximum soil moisture retention curve (S-curve) at hourly time-scales is presented. The methodology is applied to the Napa River basin, California. Rainfall events from 2011 to 2012 are used for estimating the event-based S. As a result, we derive an S-curve which is classified into three sections depending on the recovery rate of S for soil moisture conditions ranging from 1) dry, 2) transitional from dry to wet, and 3) wet. The first section is described as gradually increasing recovering S (0.97 mm/hr or 23.28 mm/day), the second section is described as steeply recovering S (2.11 mm/hr or 50.64 mm/day) and the third section is described as gradually decreasing recovery (0.34 mm/hr or 8.16 mm/day). Using the S-curve, we can estimate the hourly change of soil moisture content according to the time duration after rainfall cessation, which is then used to estimate direct runoff for a continuous simulation for flood forecasting.

In this study, monitoring method which is more economic and easier in maintenance comparing to existing monitoring system was scrutinized for application to sewer intercepting chamber of 10.2 ha basin area by estimating CSOs (Combined Sewer Overflows) quantity and quality with 2 rainfall events using electrical conductivity data and civil research model. The result showed that determination coefficient of flow estimation by EC (Electrical Conductivity) dilution ratio and observed data was over 0.86 for all cases and the accuracy of estimation was improved from 0.5 to 0.8 for determination coefficient ($R^2$) and from 54.1% to 68.5% for accumulation frequency of relative error by considering antecedent dry days and rainfall duration. CSOs water quality estimation results by civil research model showed that determination coefficients were 0.64~0.97 for BOD and 0.70~0.95 for SS.

Low Impact Development (LID) techniques are eco-friendly storm water management process for water circulation restoration and non-point pollutant reduction. In this study, four LID techniques (Small constructed wetland, Infiltration trench box, Infiltration trench, Vegetated swale) were selected and installed as a real size at the real site. All facilities were evaluated as monitoring under the real environmental climate situation and an artificial rain with exceeding design rainfall. In various rainfall, runoff reduction efficiency and non-point pollutant removal efficiency are increased to the bigger Surface Area of LID (SA)/Catchment Area (CA) ratio and the bigger Storage Volume of LID (SV)/Catchment Area (CA) ratio. Runoff did not occur at all rainfall event (max. 17.2 mm) in infiltration trench and vegetated swale. But Small constructed wetland was more efficient at less than 10 mm, a efficiency of infiltration trench box was similar at different rainfall. Although different conditions (such as structural material of LID, rainfall flow rate, antecedent dry periods), LID techniques are good effects not only water circulation improvement but also water quality improvement.

This study was conducted to analyze the runoff characteristics of the highway depending on the number of vehicles and to provide the installation proposal of an NPS pollution reduction facility. There were a total of 5 monitoring sites used for the study namely, Gyeongbu, Seohaean, Honam and Tongyeoung Dageon highway. Monitoring events started from 2006 until 2015 having a total of 44 storm events. According to monitoring statistics, the average antecedent dry days (ADD) and rainfall was 6.2 days and 19.2 mm, respectively. The Gyeongbu Highway (H-4) was recorded having the highest Average Daily Traffic and Catchment Area (ADT/CA) with $49.4car/day{\cdot}m^2$ while other site were less than $10car/day{\cdot}m^2$. The average concentration of the NPS pollutants generated from monitoring sites were 63.5 mg/L(TSS), 24.9 mg/L(BOD), 3.35 mg/L(TN), 0.63 mg/L(TP) and 298 ug/L(Total Zn). This exhibited lower values in comparison to the remarks of highway related runoff EMC values published in Korea. Moreover, through the results of the correlation analysis between the contaminant concentration and ADT/CA, $R^2$ value of SS showed the highest correlation with 585. Through the correlation equation between ADT/CA and EMC of TSS, when there is 73.7 mg/L of TSS EMC found from a domestic highway, ADT/CA ratio is normally $13car/day{\cdot}m^2$. Therefore, in a case of more than 13 cars passing through a certain area, the area can be considered and present as the point of generation of nonpoint source pollutants. Also, in this study, since it considered a unit area ADT indicated in previous studies, it was determined that it has a high applicability and utilization in generalized units than conventional study which were conventionally done.
