The methodology of utilizing Intensity-Duration-flood Quantity (IDQ) curve for flood alert and warning was introduced and its performance was evaluated. For this purpose the lumped parameter model was calibrated and validated for gauged basin data set and the index precipitation equivalent to alert and warning flood was estimated. The index precipitation and IDQ curves associated by three different Antecedant Moisture Conditions (AMCs) are made provision for various possible flood scenarios. The test basin is Wonju-cheon basin ($94.4km^2$) located in Gangwon province, Korea. The IDQ curves corresponding to alert (50% of design flood level) and warning (70% of design flood level) level was estimated using the Clark unit hydrograph based lumped parameter model. The performance evaluation showed 0.704 of POD (Probability of Detection), 0.136 of FAR (False Alarm Ratio), and 0.633 of CSI (Critical Success Index), which is improved from the result of IDQ with single fixed AMC.

This research was carried out for suggesting design criteria and procedure for maximizing flood control capacity by building flood control facilities like flood retention basin built in connection with existing facilities in order to cope with increased uncertainty due to factors such as urbanization and climate change. We suggested the procedure for the analysis under the various scenarios applicable for the cases of determining retention basin capacity as provision for the flood water level increase in main river channel or estimating flood water level reduction effect when retention basin capacity is given. Procedure for estimating design flood hydrograph at any duration using Intensity-Duration-Quantity (IDQ) originated from the existing IDF, and its application example were provided. Based on rainfall estimated by the IDQ analysis, it is possible to calculate an equivalent peak hydrographs under various scenarios, e.g. lower frequency hydrograph under same rainfall duration with water level higher than existing hydrograph, hydrograph with same peak and higher volume due to increased rainfall duration, hydrograph with higher peak and volume than existing hydrograph, etc.

기존 홍수예보에 사용되는 일반적인 절차는 관측되는 강우를 이용하여 유역의 유출량을 계산하고 댐 저수량과 현 상황에서 발생할 수 있는 하천의 수위와 유량을 판단한 뒤 홍수예보 및 경보를 발령한다. 이러한 방법은 모형의 구동에 걸리는 시간으로 인한 의사결정 시간의 단축, 모형의 성능에 의존하는 홍수예측 결과 등의 단점이 존재하며, 관련 전문가가 상주하며 홍수 유무를 판단하고 상황을 전파해야하는 인적 재원이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 분포형 강우-유출모형 기반의 강우강도-지속시간-홍수량(IDQ) 곡선을 활용하여 미계측 유역 홍수예보에 활용하는 기법을 평가하였다. 계측된 유역의 자료를 이용하여 분포형 모형의 검보정을 실시하고 하천의 예경보 홍수량에 준하는 한계강우량을 산정하였다. 이때. 다양한 지속시간의 강우를 적용하였으며 토양함수상태에 따른 IDQ 곡선을 산정하여 발생 가능한 여러 시나리오에 대비할 수 있는 홍수예보 기법을 제시하였다. 주요 홍수예경보지점에 적절한 IDQ 곡선을 보유하게 된다면 비전문가도 신속한 홍수예경보 의사결정이 가능하여 각 지자체와 유관기관에서 손쉽게 활용할 수 있으리라 판단된다.

The behavior of the unsaturated soil slope can be influenced by the various factors such as the hydraulic characteristics, the mechanical characteristics, the coefficient of conductivity, the stratifications, the rainfall conditions i.e. the rainfall intensity, the rainfall pattern, the duration time of the rainfall and the antecedent rainfall etc. It is known that the slope failure is influenced greatly by the antecedent rainfall rather than the rainfall condition at the failure time, so the antecedent rainfall is supposed to be a very important factor in slope stability analysis among these factors. To predict and to prevent the slope failure by the rainfall, the distribution of the matric suction by the antecedent rainfall must be considered first of all and the slope stability analysis should be carried out by considering the successive rainfall characteristics. In this research, 3 samples with different quantity (5%, 10%, 20%) of silts were prepared and the SWCC (Soil-water characteristic curve) tests were carried out and the associated parameters were analyzed. After analyzing the distribution of the matric suction and the change of the mechanical characteristics such as the stress and the strength when applying the antecedent rainfall for one month and the successive intensive rainfall for 12 hours, the slope stability analyses were carried out numerically. And the influence of the antecedent rainfall for one month and the SWCC on the stability of a slope were compared and analyzed.
