This study is to evaluate the applicability of SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model for multi-purpose dams and multi-function weirs operation in Namhan river basin ($12,577km^2$) of South Korea. The SWAT was calibrated (2005 ~ 2009) and validated (2010 ~ 2014) considering of 4 multi-purpose dams and 3 multi-function weirs using daily observed dam inflow and storage, evapotranspiration, soil moisture, and groundwater level data. Firstly, the dam inflow was calibrated by the five steps; (step 1) the physical rate between total runoff and evapotranspiration was controlled by ESCO, (step 2) the peak runoff was calibrated by CN, OV_N, and CH_N, (step 3) the baseflow was calibrated by GW_DELAY, (step 4) the recession curve of baseflow was calibrated by ALPHA_BF, (step 5) the flux between lateral flow and return flow was controlled by SOL_AWC and SOL_K, and (step 6) the flux between reevaporation and return flow was controlled by REVAPMN and GW_REVAP. Secondly, for the storage water level calibration, the SWAT emergency and principle spillway were applied for water level from design flood level to restricted water level for dam and from maximum to management water level for weir respectively. Finally, the parameters for evapotranspiration (ESCO), soil water (SOL_AWC) and groundwater level fluctuation (GWQMN, ALPHA_BF) were repeatedly adjusted by trial error method. For the dam inflow, the determination coefficient $R^2$ was above 0.80. The average Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) was from 0.59 to 0.88 and the RMSE was from 3.3 mm/day to 8.6 mm/day respectively. For the water balance performance, the PBIAS was between 9.4 and 21.4 %. For the dam storage volume, the $R^2$ was above 0.63 and the PBIAS was between 6.3 and 13.5 % respectively. The average $R^2$ for evapotranspiration and soil moisture at CM (Cheongmicheon) site was 0.72 and 0.78, and the average $R^2$ for groundwater level was 0.59 and 0.60 at 2 YP (Yangpyeong) sites.

본 논문에서는 1m 해상도의 위성영상으로부터 건물의 경계선을 검출하기 위해 영상분할과 변이지도(disparity map)를 이용하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. Watershed 방법으로 영상을 분할하고 분할된 영역 내부의 변이를 다중정합창틀(multiple matching window)과 결합된 다차원특징벡터정합(multi-dimensional feature vector matching)을 이용하여 계산한다 분할된 인접 영역들 가운데 panchromatic 및 multispectral 밝기값과 변이의 평균값이 유사하면 두 영역을 결합하여 하나의 영역을 생성하고 이 과정을 반복적으로 수행한다. 영역의 평균 변이값이 기준 값보다 크면 이를 건물 지붕 영역으로 결정한다. IKONOS 위성영상에 제안한 방법을 적용하여 작은 건물이 밀집되어 있는 도시 지역에서 건물 지붕의 영역과 경계선을 효과적으로 검출할 수 있었다.

An integrated system of GIS and water quality model was suggested including the pollutant loads from the watershed. The developed system consits of two parts. First part is the information on landuse and several surface factors concerning the overland flow processes of water and pollutants. Second part is the modeling modules which include storm event pollutant load model(SEPLM), non-storm event pollutant load model(NSPLM), and river water quality simulation model(RWQSM). Models can calculate the pollutant load from the study area. The databases and models are linked through the interface modules resided in the overall system, which incorporate the graphical display modules and the operating scheme for the optimal use of the system. The developed system was applied to the Chungju multi-purpose reservoir to estimate the pollutant load during the four selected rainfall events between 1991 and 1993, based upon monthly basis and seasonal basis in drought flow, low flow, normal flow and wet flow.

Hydrological modeling is a very complex task dealing with multi-source of data, but it can be potentially benefited from recent improvements and developments in remote sensing. The estimation of actual land surface evapotranspiration (ET), an important variable in water management, has become possible based entirely on satellite data. This study adopted a Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) with the use of MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) satellite products. The SEBAL model is one of the commonly used approach for the ET estimation. A primary advantage of the SEBAL model is rather its minimum requirement for ground-based weather data. The MODIS provides ET (MOD16) product that is based on the Penman-Monteith equation. This study aims to further develop the SEBAL model by employing a more rigorous parameterization scheme including the estimation of uncertainty associated with parameter and model selection in regression model. Finally, the proposed model is compared with the existing approaches and comprehensive discussion is then provided.

This study aims to show the feasibility of wastewater reuse through hydrological analysis and propose a framework for planning using multi-criteria decision making technique. Ten alternatives of wastewater reuse (BOD: 3.0 mg/L & 4.7 mg/L) and two references in the urban watershed were considered and analyzed by using Hydrological Simulation Program in Fortran (HSPF). Though wastewater reuse has a positive effect on water quantity, it may degrade the water quality due to the high discharge concentration. This study showed that wastewater reuse can be a great alternative for the rehabilitation of distorted water cycle, if the quality is improved up to the natural streamflow and the quantity is increased up to the instreamflow requirement. In addition, to determine the project priority, three criteria were compared: 1) impacts on water quantity and water quality, respectively, 2) consideration of present hydrologic vulnerabilities on water quantity and quality and not, and 3) social and economic considerations and not. From the performance values to all criteria, the specific ranking can be derived and the feasibility of each wastewater reuse project can be checked with the comparison of the existing facilities. As a result, DJ and DR were derived to become effective in any evaluation conditions while SS and WG were improper alternatives if various criteria were considered. The decision making for project prioritization must be careful with the consideration of various impacts of wastewater reuse because the evaluation of wastewater reuse alternative showed very different priorities for each criteria.

In this study, past method and recent method for flood discharge with domestic multi-purpose dams in Korea were compared and analyzed with respect to the scale of watershed. Rainfall depth, temporal distribution, effective rainfall, rainfall-runoff model, parameter estimation and base flow were selected as the principal factors affecting flood discharge and effects on flood discharge were analyzed quantitatively by using sensitivity analysis. The results showed that the flood discharges calculated by past and recent method increased and decreased with a wide range of discharge with respect to the scale of watershed. The reason for decrease of flood discharge is the exchange of temporal distribution pattern of rainfall and the principal reason for increase of flood discharge are the increase of rainfall depth by unusual weather phenomena and the difference of estimation method of parameters of unit hydrograph.

The objective of this study is to test the applicability of SLURP (Semi-distributed Land Use-based Runoff Process) on Soyanggang-dam watershed. SLURP model is a conceptual semi-distributed form model that can be used to examine irrigation plan and the effects of proposed changes in water management within a basin or to see what effects external factors such as climate change or changing land cover might have on various water users. Topographical parameters were derived from DEM using TOPAZ and SLURPAZ. Monthly NDVIs were calculated from multi-temporal NOAA/AVHRR images during four years (1998 ∼ 2001). Weather elements (dew-point temperature, solar radiation, maximum/minimum temperature and relative humidify) were obtained from five meteorological stations within and near the study area. To simulate daily hydrograph during 1998 ∼ 2001, the model parameters of each land cover class were optimized by sensitivity analysis and SCE-UA method. Test result of SLURP was summarized by various statistics method (WMO volume error, Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, mean error and coefficient of variation).

The primary purpose of this study is to determine NDVI analysis methodologies for green algae monitoring system. A fixed wing UAV integrated with multi-spectral sensor has been adopted to capture the images along the watershed in Gumgang River. The study area was near the Baekje water reservoir and the images was captured on July 2016. Pix4D Mapper Pro was used to process the captured images. Through the comparison actual chlorophyll measurement values with NDVI output image, empirical formula was suggested and geo-locational conversion was carried out. As a result of this study chlorophyll image set applied to actual measurement values was able to extracted. For the efficient management of green algae, its monitoring and prevention in terms of disaster management, gathering chlorophyll information using UAV is very beneficial.

In this study, past method and recent method for flood discharge with domestic multi-purpose dams in Korea were compared and analyzed with respect to the scale of watershed. Rainfall depth, temporal pattern, rainfall excess, rainfall-runoff model, parameter estimation and base flow were selected as the principal factors affecting flood discharge and effects on flood discharge were analyzed quantitatively by using sensitivity analysis. The results showed that the flood discharges calculated by past and recent method increased and decreased with a wide range of discharge with respect to the scale of watershed. The reason for decrease of flood discharge is the exchange of temporal pattern of rainfall and the principal reasons for increase of flood discharge are the increase of rainfall depth by unusual weather phenomena and the difference of estimation method for parameters of unit hydrograph.

Landslides are one of the most dangerous phenomena and natural disasters. Landslides cause many human and financial losses in most parts of the world, especially in mountainous areas. Due to the climatic conditions and topography, people in the northern and western regions of Iran live with the risk of landslides. One of the measures that can effectively reduce the possible risks of landslides and their crisis management is to identify potential areas prone to landslides through multi-criteria modeling approach. This research aims to model landslide potential area in the Oshvand watershed using a support vector machine algorithm. For this purpose, evidence maps of seven effective factors in the occurrence of landslides namely slope, slope direction, height, distance from the fault, the density of waterways, rainfall, and geology, were prepared. The maps were generated and weighted using the continuous fuzzification method and logistic functions, resulting values in zero and one range as weights. The weighted maps were then combined using the support vector machine algorithm. For the training and testing of the machine, 81 slippery ground points and 81 non-sliding points were used. Modeling procedure was done using four linear, polynomial, Gaussian, and sigmoid kernels. The efficiency of each model was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; the root means square error, and the correlation coefficient . Finally, the landslide potential model that was obtained using Gaussian's kernel was selected as the best one for susceptibility of landslides in the Oshvand watershed.
