The recurrent neural network (RNN) algorithm has been widely used in water-related research areas, such as water level predictions and water quality predictions, due to its excellent time series learning capabilities. However, studies on water quality predictions using RNN algorithms are limited because of the scarcity of water quality data. Therefore, most previous studies related to water quality predictions were based on monthly predictions. In this study, the quality of the water in a reservoir in Nonsan, Chungcheongnam-do Republic of Korea was predicted using the RNN-LSTM algorithm. The study was conducted after constructing data that could then be, linearly interpolated as daily data. In this study, we attempt to predict the water quality on the 7th, 15th, 30th, 45th and 60th days instead of making daily predictions of water quality factors. For daily predictions, linear interpolated daily water quality data and daily weather data (rainfall, average temperature, and average wind speed) were used. The results of predicting water quality concentrations (chemical oxygen demand [COD], dissolved oxygen [DO], suspended solid [SS], total nitrogen [T-N], total phosphorus [TP]) through the LSTM algorithm indicated that the predictive value was high on the 7th and 15th days. In the 30th day predictions, the COD and DO items showed R² that exceeded 0.6 at all points, whereas the SS, T-N, and T-P items showed differences depending on the factor being assessed. In the 45th day predictions, it was found that the accuracy of all water quality predictions except for the DO item was sharply lowered.

발전용댐의 댐 유입량 예측 및 운영을 위해서 (주)한국수력원자력에서는 수자원통합 운영시스템(Water resources Integrated System, WIOS)을 운영 중에 있다. 해당 시스템에서는 댐 유입량을 예측하기 위해서 기상청 수치예보모델 중 하나인 국지예보모델(Local Data Assimilation and Prediction System, LDAPS)의 예측강우를 수문모형의 입력자료로 활용하고 있으며, 레이더 기반의 초단시간 강우예측 기법을 자체 개발 중에 있다. 기상청 국지예보모델은 강우의 on/off에 대한 정확도는 90%를 상회할 만큼 높으나 정량적인 강우량의 정확도는 매우 낮고, 레이더 기반의 초단시간 예측 강우는 선행 1~2시간 예측에서는 정량적 정확도는 높으나, 그 이후 예측성능이 급격히 떨어지는 경향을 보인다. 따라서 댐 유입량의 정량적 예측 정확도를 확보하기 위해 초단시간 모델과 국지예보모델의 강우예측 결과를 병합(blending)하는 기법을 적용하여 초기 6시간 동안의 예측 성능을 향상시켜야 한다. 본 연구에서는 선행시간 0~6시간에 대해서 병합하는 기법들을 적용하고 평가하고자 한다. 기본적으로 병합은 초단시간 예측강우와 수치예보자료 간 가중치를 통해 수행된다. 일반적으로 초기 1시간 선행시간에서 레이더 기반 예측강우는 완벽한 예측자료(외삽 관측자료의 가중치는 1.0)로 가정하며, tanh 함수를 이용하여 선행시간의 증가에 따라 가중치를 감소시키면서, 6시간 선행시간에서는 수치예보 예측강우가 완벽한 예측자료라고 가정한다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 병합 방법 외에 병합된 예측강우에 과거 관측강우와 예측강우의 평균편이를 적용하여 보정하는 방법, 사례별 변동성이 큰 병합된 예측강우 특성을 고려하여 병합 가중치를 신뢰도에 따라 가변시키는 방법을 적용하여 평가한다. 이를 통해 댐 유입량 예측에 최적이 되는 병합기법을 선정하고자 한다.

High-quality precipitation data are crucial for various industries, including disaster prevention. In South Korea, long-term high-quality data are collected through numerous ground observation stations. However, data between these stations are reprocessed into a grid format using interpolation methods, which may not perfectly match actual precipitation. A prime example of real-time observational grid data globally is the Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM IMERG) from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), while in South Korea, ground radar data are more commonly used. GPM and ground radar data exhibit distinct differences due to their respective processing methods. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of GPM and Constant Altitude Plan Position Indicator(CAPPI),representative real-time grid data, by comparing them with ground-observed precipitation data. The study period spans from 2021 to 2022, focusing on hourly data from Automated Synoptic Observing System (ASOS) sites in South Korea. The GPM data tend to underestimate precipitation compared to ASOS data, while CAPPI shows errors in estimating low precipitation amounts. Through this comparative analysis, the study anticipates identifying key considerations for utilizing these data in various applied fields, such as recalculating design rainfall, thereby aiding researchers in improving prediction accuracy by using appropriate data.

An empirical model to predict initial disease occurrence and subsequent progress of Alternaria leaf spot was constructed based on the modified degree day temperature and frequency of rainfall in three years field experiments. Climatic factors were analized 10-day bases, beginning April 20 to the end of August, and were used as variables for model construction. Cumulative degree portion (CDP) that is over $10^{\circ}C$ in the daily average temperature was used as a parameter to determine the relationship between temperature and initial disease occurrence. Around one hundred and sixty of CDP was needed to initiate disease incidence. This value was considered as temperature threshhold. After reaching 160 CDP, time of initial occurrence was determined by frequency of rainfall. At least four times of rainfall were necessary to be accumulated for initial occurrence of the disease after passing temperature threshhold. Disease progress after initial incidence generally followed the pattern of frequency of rainfall accumulated in those periods. Apparent infection rate (r) in the general differential equation dx/dt=xr(1-x) for individual epidemics when x is disease proportion and t is time, was a linear function of accumulation rate of rainfall frequency (Rc) and was able to be directly estimated based on the equation r=1.06Rc-0.11($R^2=0.993$). Disease severity (x) after t time could be predicted using exponential equation $[x/(1-x)]=[x_0/(1-x)]e^{(b_0+b_1R_c)t}$ derived from the differential equation, when $x_0$ is initial disease, $b_0\;and\;b_1$ are constants. There was a significant linear relationship between disease progress and cumulative number of air-borne conidia of Alternaria mali. When the cumulative number of air-borne conidia was used as an independent variable to predict disease severity, accuracy of prediction was poor with $R^2=0.3328$.

The objective of this study is to develop a prediction mode for a flood forecasting system in the downstream of the Nakdong river basin. Ranging from the gauging station at Jindong to the Nakdong estuary barrage, the hydraulic flood routing model(DWOPER) based on the Saint Venant equation was calibrated by comparing the calculated river stage with the observed river stages using four different flood events recorded. The upstream boundary condition was specified by the measured river stage data at Jindong station and the downstream boundary condition was given according to the tide level data observed at he Nakdong estuary barrage. The lateral inflow from tributaries were estimated by the rainfall-runoff model. In the calibration process, the optimum roughness coefficients for proper functions of channel reach and discharge were determined by minimizing the sum of the differences between the observed and the computed stage. In addition, the forecasting lead time on the basis of each gauging station was determined by a numerical simulation technique. Also, we suggested a model structure for a real-time flood forecasting system and tested it on the basis of past flood events. The testing results of the developed system showed close agreement between the forecasted and observed stages. Therefore, it is expected that the flood forecasting system we developed can improve the accuracy of flood forecasting on the Nakdong river.

The Purpose of this study are to develop the simulation(Tank model, Rainfall-runoff model) for the estimation of wily river discharge and for evaluation of wily pollutant loads from the watersheds of the objected basin area. As apply this constructed Tank model to Nakdong river region, we evaluated the wily river discharge of Nakdong river from use-land conditions, precipitation and evaporation data of 3 years(from 1998 to 2000) and investigate the seasonal fluctuation of SS, COD, TN, TP inflowing into Nakdong river. The result shows that summer has high pollutant level than winter in seasonal characteristic and the down stream has high pollutant level than the upper stream. The annual average of SS, COD, TN, TP flawing in Nakdong river(Samranjin) was estimated each 691ton-COD/year, 1854.2ton-SS/year, 382.8ton-TN/year and 13.0ton- TP/year.

Taiwan has a typical marine climate featuring perennial high-temperature and dampness. This climate, together with the emission of various industrial corrosive waste gases in recent years, contributes a lot to the corrosion of metal materials. In this study, samples of carbon steel exposed to various atmospheres in Taiwan were analyzed to investigate the impacts of atmospheric factors on carbon steel corrosion. Carbon steel samples were collected from 87 experimental stations between 2009 and 2012. Statistical analysis was employed to investigate the correlations between the carbon steel corrosion situations and the atmospheric factors such as concentrations of sulfur dioxide or chloride, exposure time, rainfall, etc. The results indicate that for samples from industrial areas, the sulfur dioxide concentration and exposure time during fall and winter are significantly correlated to the condition of the carbon steel corrosion. However, for samples from coastal zones, the significant correlated factors are chloride concentration and wetting time during winter. The results of this study are useful for the development of carbon steel corrosion prediction models.

본 연구에서는 강우의 시 공간적 분포의 불규칙한 변동성을 고려한 강우-유출예측을 위해 인공신경망(Artificial Neural Networks: ANNs)의 기법의 일종인 자기조직화(Self Organizing Map: SOM) 이론과 역전파 학습 알고리즘(Back Propagation Algorithm: BPA) 이론을 복합적으로 이용하였다. 기존의 인공신경망 연구에서 야기된 저..갈수기의 유출량에 대한 과대평가, 홍수기의 유출량에 대한 과소평가, 예측값이 선행 유출량의 지속성을 갖는 Persistence 현상을 해결하기 위하여 패턴분류 성능을 지닌 SOM 이론을 도입하여 예측모형의 전처리 과정으로 이용하였다. 이는 기존의 인공신경망 모형이 하나의 모형을 구성하여 유출량의 전 범위에 해당하는 자료를 예측하는 방법을 개선한 것으로 SOM에 의해 패턴이 분류된 강우-유출관계의 각 패턴별 예측모형을 통해 분류된 자료들의 예측을 수행하는 방법이다. 이와 같이 SOM을 강우-유출예측모형의 전처리과정으로 이용함으로서 기존의 인공신경망 연구에서 야기된 현상들을 해결할 수 있었고, 예측력 또한 기존의 인공신경망 모형의 결과에 비해 우수하였다.

최근 국지적 집중호우로 인한 인명과 재산피해가 증가하고 있는 실정이며 이러한 피해를 경감하기 위한 하나의 방책으로써 홍수예경보 시스템 구축의 관심이 늘어나고 있다. 그러나, 기존의 홍수예측 시스템은 강우관측치를 모형의 입력 자료로 홍수유출을 계산하는데, 집중호우와 같은 악기상 조건에서는 관측강우자료를 이용한 유출해석 결과를 이용하여 홍수예경보 시스템을 운영할 경우 예방 대응시간의 부족으로 인해 방재 효율성이 떨어지는 한계성을 지니고 있다. 이와 같은 상황에서 정확한 기상예보를 활용한 기상-수자원 연계기법을 개발하여 홍수예경보 시스템에 적용한다면 악기상 감시예측기술의 향상과 더불어 재해의 방지차원에서 매우 유용한 대책이 될 뿐만 아니라 그 활용성을 극대화 시킨다면 수자원분야의 치수기 홍수예측 등에 매우 유용하게 활용될 수 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 모형의 입력으로 활용되는 단기 예측강우의 국내 적용성 여부를 검토하기 위해 30km의 공간해상도를 가진 단기지역예보모델인 RDAPS(Regional Data Assimilation and Prediction System) 예측강우 자료에 대하여 수문학적 정확도 분석을 수행하였으며, 예측강우의 정확도 향상을 위한 편차보정 방법을 개발 적용하였다. 또한 산정된 예측강우를 바탕으로 HEC-1 모델과의 연계방안을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 한강수계 주요 댐유역의 예측유입량을 산정, 댐 운영에 대한 적용성을 판단하고자 한다.

Soil loss is widely recognized as a threat to farm livelihoods and ecosystem integrity worldwide. Soil loss prediction models can help address long-range land management planning under natural and agricultural conditions. Even though it is hard to find a model that considers all forms of erosion, some models were developed specifically to aid conservation planners in identifying areas where introducing soil conservation measures will have the most impact on reducing soil loss. Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) computes the average annual erosion expected on hillslopes by multiplying several factors together: rainfall erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K), slope length and steepness (LS), cover management (C), and support practice (P). The value of these factors is determined from field and laboratory experiments. This study calculated soil erosion using GIS-based RUSLE model in Imha basin and examined soil erosion source area using SPOT 5 high-resolution satellite image and land cover map. As a result of analysis, dry field showed high-density soil erosion area and we could easily investigate source area using satellite image. Also we could examine the suitability of soil erosion area applying field survey method in common areas (dry field & orchard area) that are difficult to confirm soil erosion source area using satellite image.
