  • 본 연구에서는 지점빈도해석의 단점을 보완하기 위해 지역화의 개념을 사용한 지역빈도해석을 수행하였다. 지점빈도해석은 수문자료의 관측기간이 짧은 경우 정확도에 문제를 발생시킬 수 있으므로 지점 내 충분한 수의 자료 확보가 선행되어야 하나, 우리나라의 경우 지점별로 자료수가 많지 않기 때문에 지역빈도해석을 통해서 보다 정확하고 안정적인 확률수문량을 산정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 한강유역의 강우자료 선별을 통해서 신뢰성 있는 자료를 구축한 후, Regional Shape Estimation법과 Index Flood법을 사용한 지역빈도해석을 각각 실시하여 지점빈도해석을 시행한 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 한강유역의의 경우 Regional Shape Estimation 법보다 Index Flood 법이 약간 우수하게 나타났으며, 이질성이 내포되어 있는 경우라도 지점빈도해석보다는 지역빈도해석 기법이 우수하게 나타났다. 국내의 경우와 같이 관측 자료기간이 짧은 경우에는 지점빈도해석 기법보다는 지역빈도해석 기법을 적용하는 것이 보다 신뢰할 수 있는 확률수문량을 도출할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate and suggesting plans for the Gonggeumji rice paddy wetland ecotourism with ecological, cultural and historical resources. Compare to previous other ecotourism resources including insects, birds and other ecological resources, this study used rice paddy wetland as ecotourism resources. The wetland ecotourism could be more promoted with networking of resources, historical experiences of Goryung Gaya Kingdom, leisure sports tourism with bicycling, the residents'cultural resources including traditional folk song village experiences.

  • This study aims to understand the degree of inequality of surveyed amenity resources and identify which resource and region have the highest concentration by estimating Lorenz Curve and the Gini's Coefficient. The Lorenz Curve and Gini's Coefficient derived from economics are introduced as tools for investigating and quantifying regional variability of amenity resources concentration. This study describes the concepts underlying the application of the Gini's coefficient to measure the concentration of amenity resources in 11 regions, Chungbuk Province, Korea. The Lorenz Curve presents a graphical view of the cumulative distribution of amenity resources and the Gini's Coefficient provides a single-parameter measure of the distributional concentration of amenity resources. Also the Gini's Coefficient is compared to the number of amenity resource for understanding distributional difference between concentration and quantitative distribution of amenity resources. The results demonstrate significantly different regional variation according to the amenity variables: almost intact nature, interaction between nature and man, man-made.

  • Estimations of regional stress are demonstrated in this paper. Firstly, regional stress is defined and the characteristics of regional stress are then discussed based on the local stresses measured by the Compact Conical-ended Borehole Overcoring (CCBO) technique and the results from the earthquake focal mechanism. Secondly, the regional stresses are estimated by a back analysis of three-dimensional finite element models, using the local stresses measured by the CCBO and hydraulic fracturing.

  • This paper examines the extent to which the Mekong River Basin countries have achieved socioeconomic benefits based on regional cooperation through the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) Program, focusing on hydropower development and the Mekong Power Grid. This study pays attention to the time period from 2012 to 2022. The benefit sharing approach is employed to evaluate the extent to which hydropower development and the Mekong Power Grid have contributed to the regional energy trade in the GMS program. The GMS program was launched by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in 1992, and the Chinese provinces of Yunnan and Guangxi, Myanmar, Lao PDR, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam have taken an active part in the program. The goals of the GMS program are to achieve poverty alleviation, economic development, and regional cooperation in various sectors, including energy, tourism, and transportation. The GMS Economic Cooperation Program Strategic Framework 2030 (GMS-2030), in 2021, provides a new framework for prosperous and sustainable development in the river basin. In the energy sector, the GMS program has been instrumental in facilitating hydropower development and creating the Mekong Power Grid with the Regional Grid Code (RGC), contributing to economic benefits and promoting regional trade of hydroelectricity. It is argued that the GMS program has enhanced regional cooperation between the riparian countries. Despite such achievements, the GMS program has faced challenges, including the gap of economic development between the riparian countries, socioeconomic and environmental concerns regarding hydropower development between the Upper and Lower Mekong countries, and geopolitical tensions from the US-China rivalry. These challenges should adequately be addressed within the program, which can guarantee the sustainability of the program for the river basin.

  • To select 10 representatives for the ecotourism networks around the areas bordering national rivers in Korea, the spatial ranges for ecotourism have been established, the ecotourism potential analyzed, and the ecotourism resources information collected by the Regional Environmental Offices and the Korea National Park Service has undergone reviews, amendments, supplements, and verification processes through familiarization tour previews, and the following main results have been derived. First, the spatial ranges of the eco-tourism networks have been set as the watershed areas that include areas around the four major rivers and the rivers. Second, the areas with high potential value for ecotourism were selected through the analysis of ecotourism potential. Since EGIS was used for the analysis, it was inevitable that insufficient amount of localized information was reflected, and the use of the results as reference for the potential would be feasible. Third, it was possible, by reviewing, amending and complementing the results of ecological resource information collected by the Regional Environmental Offices and the Korea National Park Service, to select 50 representative ecological resources around the national rivers. The selected resources were considered for the adjacency, attractiveness of ecological resources, and uniqueness of the national rivers, and they were derived by screening expert advice, official opinion, and geographical analysis information. Fourth, 10 representative ecotourism networks based on watershed areas were selected, and suitable themes were given based on the resource characteristics. Fifth, the appropriateness for ecotourism has been confirmed, with the familiarization tour previews and survey results, preservation of the future ecotourism resources, and the establishment of the foundation as the basis. In the future, the remaining 9 ecotourism networks would also need to undergo a verification process such as familiarization tours. It is deemed that, through future ecotourism contests, if the programs that select locally-pioneered tourism programs resulting from the capacities of local entities and residents, then it would be more effective in discovering resources that are more localized and of higher regional value.

  • 2007년 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) 4차보고서 이후로 지구 온난화에 대한 다양한 부분에 영향 분석 연구가 더욱 활발하게 진행되고 있으며, 그 가운데 수자원 즉 육상의 물 순환은 인간 활동과 생태계 전반에 대한 직접 영향으로 인해 기후변화 정책 수립 시 그 중요성이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 현재까지, 많은 연구에 있어서 Global Circulation Model (GCM)을 직접 축소기법을 이용한 후 이를 수문 모형에 입력하여 수자원 영향 분석을 실시해오고 있다. 국외를 중심으로 기존 GCM보다 해상도가 높은 Regional Climate Model(RCM)을 이용한 분석이 일부 시행되고 있으나, 국내에서는 자료의 가용 여부 및 적용성의 검토가 아직 미비한 실정이다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구에서는 27km의 해상도를 갖는 기상청 RegCM3 RCM에서 도출된 10일 간격 기후변화 SRES 시나리오 자료에 대한 적합성을 평가하고자 한다. 적합성을 평가 하기위해서 국내 주요지점에 근접한 격자자료를 RCM으로부터 추출하고 이에 대한 수문학적 특성치 분석, 저빈도 분석(low frequency analysis), 극치사상의 분포형태 등을 실측 강수자료와 다양한 형태로 비교 검토하여 RCM 자료의 적합성을 평가하였다.
