This study performed the bivariate drought frequency analysis for duration and severity of drought, using copula functions which allow considering the correlation structure of joint features of drought. We suggested the confidence intervals of duration-severity-frequency (DSF) curves for the given drought duration using stochastic scheme of monthly rainfall generation for 57 sites in Korea. This study also investigated drought risk via illustrating the largest drought events on record over 50 and 100 consecutive years. It appears that drought risks are much higher in some parts of the Nakdong River basin, southern and east coastal areas. However, such analyses are not always reliable, especially when the frequency analysis is performed based on the data observed over relatively short period of time. To quantify the uncertainty of drought frequency curves, the droughts were filtered by different durations. The 5%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 95% confidence intervals of the drought severity for a given duration were estimated based on the simulated rainfall time series. Finally, it is shown that the growing uncertainties is revealed in the estimation of the joint probability using the two marginal distributions since the correlation coefficient of two variables is relatively low.

Recently, Due to Climate change, extreme rainfall occurs frequently. In many preceding studies, Because of extreme hydrological events changes, it is expected that peak flood Magnitude and frequency of drainage infrastructures changes. However, at present, probability rainfall in the drainage facilities design is assumed to Stationary which are not effected from climate change and long-term fluctuation. In the future, flood control safety standard should be reconsidered about the valid viewpoint. In this paper, in order to assess impact of climate change on drainage system, Future climate change information has been extracted from RCP 8.5 Climate Change Scenario for IPCC AR5, then estimated the design rainfall for various durations at return periods. Finally, the design flood estimated through the HEC-HMS Model which is being widely used in the practices, estimated the effect of climate change on the Design Flood of Mihochen basin. The results suggested that the Design Flood increase by climate change. Due to this, the Flood risk of Mihochen basin can be identified to increase comparing the present status.

Although problems such as river management and flood control have occurred continuously in the Imjin and Bukhan river basin, which are shared by South and North Korea, efforts to manage the basin have not been carried out consistently due to limited cooperation. As the magnitude and frequency of hydrologic phenomena are changing due to global climate change, it is necessary to prepare countermeasures for the rainfall variation in the shared river basin area. Therefore, this study was aimed to project future changes in extreme precipitation in South-North Korea shared river basin by applying 13 Global Climate Models (GCM). Results showed that the probability rainfall compared to the reference period (1981-2005) of the shared river basin increased in the future periods of 2011-2040, 2041-2070 and 2071-2100 under the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP)4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. In addition, the rainfall frequency over the 20-year return period was increased in all periods except for the future periods of 2041-2070 and 2071-2100 under the RCP4.5 scenario. The extreme precipitation in the shared river basin has increased both in magnitude and frequency, and it is expected that the region will have a significant impact from climate change.

Providing weather information on roads today means that the road weather conditions near weather observation points are presented to road managers and road users. These weather observation points are managed by the Korea Meteorological Administration. However, it is difficult to provide accurate weather information due to physical limitations such as the presence of precipitation collection points, distance to weather information provision roads, and the presence of mountains. Therefore, this study intends to perform a comparative analysis by time zone and administrative dong provided by the Meteorological Administration using the wiper information among the information contained in the PVD(Probe Vehicle Data) collected from the highway C-ITS project. As a result of the analysis it was possible to detect rainfall even in the event of local rainfall and rainfall over a long period of time and the higher the cumulative precipitation per hour, the higher the probability of coincidence. This study is meaningful because it used PVD to solve the limitations of the existing road weather information provision method and suggested utilization plan for PVD.

The Potential Flood Damage (PFD) is widely used for representing the degree of potential of flood damage. However, this cannot be related with the design frequency of river basin and so we have difficulty in the use of water resources field. Therefore, in this study, the concept of Potential Risk for Flood Damage Occurrence (PRFD) was introduced and estimated, which can be related to the design frequency. The PRFD has three important elements of hazard, exposure, and vulnerability. The hazard means a probability of occurrence of flood event, the exposure represents the degree that the property is exposed in the flood hazard, and the vulnerability represents the degree of weakness of the measures for flood prevention. Those elements were devided into some sub-elements. The hazard is explained by the frequency based rainfall, the exposure has two sub-elements which are population density and official land price, and the vulnerability has two sub-elements which are undevelopedness index and ability of flood defence. Each sub-elements are estimated and the estimated values are rearranged in the range of 0 to 100. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is also applied to determine weighting coefficients in the equation of PRFD. The PRFD for the Anyang river basin and the design frequency are estimated by using the maximum rainfall. The existing design frequency for Anyang river basin is in the range of 50 to 200. And the design frequency estimation result of PRFD of this study is in the range of 110 to 130. Therefore, the developed method for the estimation of PRFD and the design frequency for the administrative districts are used and the method for the watershed and the river channel are to be applied in the future study.

In this study for the development of area due to the increasing of industry, population and spreading of urbanization is rapidly increasing but about seventy percent of our nation's areas consists of the mountainous districts. In such case, when those areas have the heavy rains break, they are washed away by a fast-flowing stream of a valley and overflowed. Thus it could result on human life and property damage and also the widespread of flood damage in the downstream area. To decrease those damage, the construction of flood control reservoir is necessary. This research was aim to construct the flood runoff models of a mountainous small district and to determine the probability rainfall by analyzing precipitation. The study also examined the effects of location and size of flood control reservoir on flood reduction. The result showed that the construction of detention basin was an effective way to ensure the safety of flood control and multiple detention basin had superior result for reducing amount of runoff in the down stream area than the single detention basin.

This study adopted the Rectangular Pulses Poisson Process Model for the drought severity-duration-frequency analysis to characterize the spatial pattern of drought over the Korean peninsula using the rainfall data of the 59 rain gauge stations. First of all, the drought severity in the southern part of the Korean peninsula was found to be generally high for any return period. This result is consistent for both cases with and without considering the overlap probability of rectangular pulses, which is also valid for longer durations. Comparison with those of observed drought frequency and maximum severity also showed that the result in this study has enough reliability.

본 연구에서는 레이더 자료의 수문학적 적용성에 대한 정확도를 개선하고자 기상현업에서 운영하고 있는 관악산 도플러 레이더 자료를 활용하여 POD(Probability of Detection) 분석을 통해 레이더 오자료를 제거하고, 편차 보정기법을 적용하여 레이더 추정강수의 정확도를 개선시켜 이들의 수문학적 적용성을 검토하였다. 이를 위해 다양한 관측 고도각 별로 POD 분석을 수행한 결과 낮은 확률의 POD($p_l$)와 높은 확률의 POD($p_h $)의 범위가 변화하고, 레이더로부터 약 150 km 이상 떨어진 지역에서는 $1.95^{\circ}$ 이상의 고도각에서 탐지한 레이더 에코가 강수 추정에 유용하지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 소양강유역을 대상으로 관측 강우량보다 과소추정되는 Marshall-Palmer 관계식의 레이더 추정강수를 편차 보정기법으로 실시간으로 보정하여 그 정확도를 향상시켰다. 보정된 레이더 추정강수를 HEC-1에 적용하여 유량해석을 수행한 결과, 보정된 레이더 추정 강수를 이용한 모의치와 관측유량사이에 매우 높은 상관성을 보이고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 편차 보정기법을 통해 보정된 레이더 강수는 수문학적 분석을 위한 입력자료로 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 레이더 강수를 산정하는 기법을 비교.분석하고자 하였다. 레이더 강수산정기법의 비교는 레이더 반사도를 강우강도로 변환시키는 두가지 Z-R 관계식 산정방법을 기준으로 구분하여 수행하였다. Z-R 관계식 산정방법 중 첫번째는 지상강우계와 대응되는 레이더 격자 사이의 관계를 통해서 Z-R 관계식을 산출하여 레이더 강수를 산정하는 Least-Square Fitting 방법이고, 두번째 방법은 강우량계에서 관측된 강우량과 이에 근접한 영역에서 얻은 레이더 반사도 자료 각각의 확률밀도함수를 대응시켜 Z-R 관계식을 산출하는 WPMM(Window Probability Matching Method)을 적용하는 방법이다. 이 두 방법의 비교를 위해 2003년 6월에서 8월사이의 두 강우사상을 선택하여 Z-R 관계식을 산정하였으며, 산정된 Z-R 관계식으로 추정된 레이더 강수의 기상학적 검증을 통해 정성적.정량적으로 검토하였다. 한반도 전역에 대하여 산정된 레이더 추정강수를 검토한 결과 대체적으로 정확도 및 상관성 측면에서 WPMM 방법이 Least-Square Fitting 방법보다 정확한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 도시 유역의 홍수예경보에 적합한 레이더 강수산정기법을 파악하고자 중랑천 유역의 레이더 강수를 수문학적으로 분석한 결과 WPMM 방법이 보다 유효한 것으로 검토되었다.

본 연구는 경북지역의 11개 관측소와 인근 9개의 관측소의 강우자료를 이용하여 경북지역에 한정된 확률강우량도를 작성하였다. 최근 행정구역별 치수계획의 수립이 빈번해지고 소규모 유역의 개발로 인한 홍수량 산정 등이 빈번해지고 있다. 그러나 대부분이 강우관측소가 유역내에 위치해 있지 않고 인접한 기상관측소의 자료를 이용하고 있는 실정이고, 공공기관이나 실무를 수행함에 있어 유역의 강우량 적용에 있어 소규모 유역의 강우량이 지점강우량에 의해 결정되므로 어느 정도의 편차를 보이는지 추정이 사실상 곤란하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 경북지역에 한정하여 지점강우량을 빈도해석하여 확률강우량도를 작성하여 강우관측소가 인접하지 않아도 소규모 유역의 확률강우량의 근사치를 추정하여 지점빈도해석과 비교할 수 있도록 확률강우량도를 작성하였다. 경북지역인근 강우관측소의 자료를 강우 분석하여 확률분포형을 선정한 결과 거창, 구미, 대구, 문경, 밀양, 봉화, 안동, 영덕, 영주, 울산, 의성, 제천 충주, 추풍령, 합천은 Gumbel 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타났으며, 보은은 2변수 Log-Gumbel 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타났으며, 영천, 울진, 태백은 Gamma 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타나고 포항은 GEV 분포가 적합한 것으로 나타났다.
