This study is to evaluate the parameter behavior of VfloTM distributed rainfall-runoff model by applying 3 kinds of rainfall interpolation methods viz. Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW), Kriging (KRI), and Thiessen network (THI). For the 1,544 $km^2$ Dongcheon watershed of Nakdong river, the model was calibrated using 4 storm events in 2007 and 2009, and validated using 2 storm events in 2010. The model was calibrated with Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency of 0.97 for IDW, 0.94 for KRI, and 0.95 for THI respectively. For the sensitive parameters, the saturated hydraulic conductivity ($K_{sat}$) for IDW, KRI, and THI were 0.33, 0.31, and 0.43 cm/hr, and the soil suction head at the wetting front (${\Psi}_f$) were 4.10, 3.96, and 5.19 cm $H_2O$ respectively. These parameters affected the infiltration process by the spatial distribution of antecedent moisture condition before a storm.

In this study, a technique based on Fractal Theory with Erosion Model was developed to interpolate the river morphology data at the border area between river bed and river side where both surface and under water surveyings can not be committed easily. Three dimensional river morphology data along the Ara River was generated by the developed technique. The Ara River is an artificially constructed waterway for vessels between the Han River and West Sea of Korea. The result was compared with the survey data by RMSE of 0.384, while the IDW interpolation result has RMSE of 0.802. Consequently, the developed river morphology data interpolation technique using Erosion Model based Fractal Theory is conceived to be superior to the IDW which has been generally used in generating the river morphology data.

수자원분야에서 강우-유출의 정확한 해석은 홍수분석 및 수자원 이용의 측면에서 중요한 과제이다. 또한, 강우-유출 해석에서 유역의 지형인자 및 수문 매개변수의 산정은 홍수량 산정을 위하여 매우 중요하며, 이와 관련된 연구도 많이 진행되었다. 이에 비하여 홍수량 산정 시 첨두유량 및 첨두시간에 큰 영향을 미치는 소유역 분할에 관한 연구는 최근 들어서야 많이 진행되고 있으며, 다른 강우-유출해석 연구에 비하여 상대적으로 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 소유역 분할에 따른 유출변화를 분석하기 위하여 시험유역으로 평창강, 청미천, 안동댐 및 임하댐 유역을 선정하였으며, 유출분석 방법으로 집중형 모형인 Clark 방법과 준 분포형 유출모형인 ModClark(Modified Clark) 방법을 이용하여 강우-유출을 모의하였다. 또한, 소유역 분할이 첨두유량과 첨두시간에 미치는 영향을 판단하기 위해 유출 매개변수의 보정과정을 거치지 않고 강우-유출을 모의하였다. ModClark 방법으로 모의 시 관측된 강우 자료를 전 유역에 걸쳐 분포시키기 위하여 IDW(Inverse Distance Weighted) 방법을 사용하였고, 공간적으로 분포된 강우자료와 지형자료를 이용함으로써 모의결과에 대한 정확도를 높이는 한편, 강우-유출 모형에서 소유역의 분할 개수에 따라 모의된 유출 형태의 변화 양상을 검토하고 실측수문곡선과 비교하였다. 소유역 분할에 따른 유출모의 결과 대체적으로 분할개수가 증가함에 따라 첨두유량은 증가하고 첨두시간은 감소하는 경향이 나타났으나, 첨두유량 및 첨두시간 모두 각각 일정분할 개수 이상에서는 변동 경향이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

Distributed hydrologic models typically require spatial estimates of precipitation interpolated from sparsely located observational points to the specific grid points. However, widely used estimation schemes fail to describe the realistic variability of daily precipitation field. We compare and contrast the performance of statistical methods for the spatial estimation of precipitation in two hydrologically different basins, and propose a two-step process for effective daily precipitation estimation. The methods assessed are: (1) Inverse Distance Weighted Average (IDW); (2) Multiple Linear Regression (MLR); (3) Climatological MLR; and (4) Locally Weighted Polynomial Regression (LWP). In the suggested simple two-step estimation process, precipitation occurrence is first generated via a logistic regression model before applying IDW scheme (one of the local scheme) to estimate the amount of precipitation separately on wet days. As the results, the suggested method shows the better performance of daily rainfall interpolation which has spatial differences compared with conventional methods. And this technique can be used for streamflow forecasting and downscaling of atmospheric circulation model effectively.

The purpose of this study is to compare precipitation distributions in precipitation data sets over South Korea produced by three interpolation methods. The differences of precipitation caused by interpolation methods is an important information when the interpolated precipitation data sets were used in researches such as ecological and hydrological modeling as well as regional climate impact studies. In this study, the precipitation data sets were produced by IDW(Inverse Distance Weighting) and Cokriging in this study and the PRISM(Precipitation-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model) data set obtained from Climate Change Information Center of Korea. The spatial resolution of the precipitation data is 1km. As a result, there was a great precipitation difference caused by interpolation methods in data of mountainous watersheds in general. Especially the difference of monthly precipitation was 10~20% or more in the mountainous watersheds near the Military Demarcation Line dividing North and South Korea, Mt. Sobaik, Mt. Worak, Mt. Deogyu, Mt. Jiri and Taeback Mountain Range. It means that a final result of a research can be affected by adopted interpolation method when an interpolated precipitation data set is used in the research for the these study sites.

A method for processing huge airborne laser scanned data using parallel computing and virtual grid is proposed and the method is tested by generating raster DSM(Digital Surface Model) with IDW(Inverse Distance Weighting). Parallelism is involved for fast interpolation of huge point data and virtual grid is adopted for enhancing searching efficiency of irregularly distributed point data. Processing time was checked for the method using cluster constituted of one master node and six slave nodes, resulting in efficiency near to 1 and load scalability property. Also large data which cannot be processed with a sole system was processed with cluster system.

면적평균강우량을 정확하게 추정하는 것은 수문조사 결과로 생성된 수위-유량관계곡선 검증을 위한 연간 유출율 및 유황분석 시에 매우 중요하다. 면적평균강우량을 산정하는 방법은 일반적으로 산술평균법, 티센법, 등우선법 등이 있는데, 최근 실무에서는 GIS Tool을 이용하여 티센다각형을 작도하고 가중치를 산정하여 관측소별 강우량을 유효강우량으로 변환하여 이용하거나, 평지 또는 좁은 유역의 경우 산술평균법을 적용하고 있다. 그러나 티센법은 지형적인 영향을 고려할 수없고, 산술평균법의 경우 우량계 밀도와 위치, 지형이 고려되지 못한다는 단점이 있기 때문에, 등우선법을 이용하여 면적평균강우량을 산정하는 것이 대부분 산악지역으로 이루어진 국내 현실에 가장 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 수문조사가 이루어지고 있는 낙동강 본류, 댐상류 등 13개 유역의 유역별 면적 평균강우량을 각각 산술평균법, 티센법, 등우선법을 이용하여 산정하였다. 등우선도의 작성을 위하여 관측소별 강우량을 역거리가중법(IDW), RBF, Kriging 기법을 이용하여 강우량의 공간보간을 실시하였으며, 등우선 간격의 영향을 검증하기 위하여 각 보간법 별 등우선 간격을 10mm, 50mm, 100mm로 분할하여 면적평균강우량을 산정하였다. 각 면적평균강우량 산정기법 및 등우선 간격별로 산정된 면적평균강우량을 비교하였고, 유역면적 등에 따른 면적평균강우량의 변화특성을 분석 하였다.

Spatial distribution of precipitation has been estimated based on the local gauge correction (LGC) with a fixed inverse distance weighting (IDW), which is not optimized in taking effective radius into account depending on the radar error. We developed an algorithm, improved local gauge correction (ILGC) which eliminates outlier in radar rainrate errors and optimize distance power for IDW. ILGC was statistically examined the hourly cumulated precipitation from weather for the heavy rain events. Adjusted radar rainfall from ILGC is improved to 50% compared with unadjusted radar rainfall. The accuracy of ILGC is higher to 7% than that of LGC, which resulted from a positive effect of the optimal algorithm on the adjustment of quantitative precipitation estimation from weather radar.

This study looks into forest fire occurrence hazards according to the change of temperature and humidity over thirty years at interval of ten days. We used data from the forest fire inventory from 1995 to 2004 and weather data such as average temperature and relative humidity for 30 years from 1971 to 2000. These data were expressed as a database with ten-day intervals for 76 weather stations. Forest fire hazards occurred in the spring season from the end of March to the middle of April. For the first step, the primitive surface of temperature and humidity was interpolated by IDW (the standard interpolation method). These thematic maps have a 1 km by 1 km grid spacing resolution. Next, we executed a simple regression analysis after extracting forest fire frequency, temperature and humidity values from 76 weather stations. The results produced a coefficient of determination ($R^2$) ranging from 0.4 to 0.6. Moreover, the estimation of forest fire occurrence hazards during early April was very high at Gyeongbuk Interior, Chungcheong Interior and part of Gangwon. The range of temperature and humidity having an influence on forest fire occurrence was as follows: average temperature and relative humidity in early April was $9-12^{\circ}C$ and 61-65%. At the end of March, temperature was $6-10^{\circ}C$, humidity 62-67%, and temperature was $11-14^{\circ}C$ and humidity 60-67% in the middle of April.

The research on red tide is generally in progress through field work, such as the naked eye and sampling. It was difficult to forecast exactly the course, from appearance of red tide to disappearance. with the established ways of investigation and analysis. Accordingly it is need to analyze environmental factors in time and space, the appearance of red tide and the path of its migration by more objective and scientific methods. In this study, GIS is applied to analyse the space character of red tide and the interpolation of IDW(Inverse Distance Weight) is applied to assume the density distribution of red tide after gather data by using Arc/Info. After IDW interpolation, the sea area occurred over 1,000 cells/ml of red tide density is extracted with CON and SUM Function of Grid Module, and the density of the sea area is accumulated daily. As a result of this study, the distribution condition of red tide is found timely and spacially by applying GIS to the sea area of red tide, the results indicated that the spatial density and the cumulative frequency about the origin of red tide using GIS, the sea area demonstrated that the maximum density and the maximum frequency varied significantly over the Nammyun of Namhae-Is. with the maximum frequency being 49 times. accordingly if data about the areas of red tide will occur from the present are accumulated, the shifting route of red tide occurrence and extinction can be predicted.
