  • 본 연구의 목적은 2006년 6월 ~ 10월에 발생한 메콩강 하류 지역의 홍수를 모의하는 것이다. 강우자료는 위성강우 자료인 미국 NOAA의 CMORPH를 적용하였으며, 홍수유출 해석은 GRM 모델을 적용하였다. Tonlesap 호수를 포함하는 메콩강 하류 지역의 침수분석은 G2D 모델을 적용하였다. 위성강우 자료는 NOAA의 3시간 간격의 CMORPH 위성강우자료를 일일강우량 자료로 변환하고, 일본의 Research Institute for Humanity and Nature (RIHN)과 Meteorological Research Institute of the Japan Meteorological Agency (MRI/JMA)의 APHRODITE 프로젝트에 의해 구축된 APHRODITE 강우량 자료를 이용하여 보정한 후 홍수모의에 적용하였다. DEM 자료는 HydroSHED 15s자료를 이용하였고, 토양도는 UN FAO의 HWSD, 그리고 토양도는 Global map landcover ver3.0을 이용하였다. GRM 모델과 G2D 모델은 Github(https://github.com/floodmodel)에 공개되어 있으며, 이를 이용하였다. 유출 모델은 메콩강 전체 유역을 대상으로 2682.815m의 공간해상도로 구축하였다. 보정한 강우를 이용하여 유출모의 한 결과 첨두유량은 23,796.8 ㎥/sec로 계산되었다. Kratie 지점의 유출량과 Tonlesap 호수로 집수되는 유량을 상류단 경계조건으로 이용하여 약 150일 동안의 침수모의를 하였다. 450 m 공간해상도로 침수모의 도매인을 구축하였으며, 조도계수는 0.045를 사용하였고, 하류단은 자유수면 유출조건을 적용하였다. 침수분석 결과 메콩강 본류를 흐르는 유량이 Tonlesap 호수로 유입되어 호수의 수위가 상승하였다. Tonlesap 호수의 최대침수심은 약 11 m를 나타내었으며, 호수로 유입된 유량은 모의기간 중에 호수에 저류되어 있었다. 메콩강 본류의 Kratie 지점으로 유입되는 유량이 첨두값을 지난 후에도 모의 기간이 길어질수록 메콩강 하류 델타지역과 그 주변의 평지로 침수범위가 확대 되었다. 모의 종료시에는 메콩강 하류가 광범위하게 침수되면서 최대 침수면적을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 메콩강을 범람한 홍수는 메콩강 하류의 서쪽 해안으로 먼저 유출이 되었다. 이는 침수모의에 적용된 DEM 자료가 북동쪽에서 서남쪽 방향으로 빗살무늬 형태의 고도분포를 가지기 때문인 것으로 판단되며, 대상 지역의 DEM 정확성 평가와 함께 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

  • 북한의 황강댐은 우리나라와 북한이 공유하고 있는 대표적인 하천인 임진강 상류에 존재하는 댐으로서 팔당댐의 약 1.5배의 규모를 가지고 있으며, 하류로의 발전방류와 함께 유역 외 지역인 예성강 지역으로 방류량의 일부를 도수시키며 이를 통해 예성강 1, 2호 발전소에서의 발전을 실시하고, 생활, 공업, 농업용수를 예성강 유역에 공급하는 것으로 파악된다. 2009년 9월 6일 임진강 상류 황강댐에서의 대규모 방류로 인해 경기도 연천군 일대에 홍수가 발생하였으며 이로 인한 인명 및 재산피해가 발생한 바 있다. 이에 우리나라에서는 임진강 하류에 군남홍수조절지를 설치하고 상류의 필승교 수위표를 이용하여 홍수경보체제를 운용하고 레이더 강우와 수문모형을 이용한 감시체계를 유지하고 있으나 황강댐 운영현황이 불확실함에 따라 정확한 예보가 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서 미계측 지역의 홍수예보를 위해 산정한 상당상수량이란 저수지의 현재 수위로부터 특정 수위까지 도달하는데 요구되는 강우량을 말하며 강우예보 시점에서 저수지의 최대 수위를 신속하게 파악할 수 있는 홍수예경보 수단이다. 미계측 유역인 임진강 상류 황강댐 유역의 상당강우량을 산정하기 위해 인공위성영상에서 획득한 댐 수위의 시계열 자료를 활용하여 간접적으로 보정된 황강댐 상류의 수문모형을 이용하였으며 현재 댐 수위로부터 주요 수위(방류개시수위, 상시만수위, 계획홍수위)에 도달하게 되는 상당강우량을 산정하였다.

  • This study aims to compare supervised classification methods with phenology-based approaches, specifically pixel-based and segment-based methods, for accurate crop mapping in agricultural landscapes. We utilized Sentinel-2A imagery, which provides multispectral data for accurate crop mapping. 31 normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) images were calculated from the Sentinel-2A data. Next, we employed phenology-based approaches to extract valuable information from the NDVI time series. A set of 10 phenology metrics was extracted from the NDVI data. For the supervised classification, we employed the maximum likelihood (MaxLike) algorithm. For the phenology-based approaches, we implemented both pixel-based and segment-based methods. The results indicate that phenology-based approaches outperformed the MaxLike algorithm in regions with frequent rainfall and cloudy conditions. The segment-based phenology approach demonstrated the highest kappa coefficient of 0.85, indicating a high level of agreement with the ground truth data. The pixel-based phenology approach also achieved a commendable kappa coefficient of 0.81, indicating its effectiveness in accurately classifying the crop types. On the other hand, the supervised classification method (MaxLike) yielded a lower kappa coefficient of 0.74. Our study suggests that segment-based phenology mapping is a suitable approach for regions like South Korea, where continuous cloud-free satellite images are scarce. However, establishing precise classification thresholds remains challenging due to the lack of adequately sampled NDVI data. Despite this limitation, the phenology-based approach demonstrates its potential in crop classification, particularly in regions with varying weather patterns.

  • 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.

  • This paper evaluates the influence of rainfall on propagated signal at different time exceedance percentages of an average year, over the climate zones of the country. Specifically, it demonstrates critical and non critical signal fade or signal outage time exceedance (0.001% to 1%) for Ku, K, and Ka-band systems in an average year. The study was carried out using meteorological data made available by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) over a period of 10 years (2009-2018). The four climate zones in the country were represented by five (5) locations; Maidugiri (warm desert climate), Sokoto (tropical dry climate), Port Harcourt (tropical monsoon climate), Abuja and Enugu (tropical savanna climate). The parameters were simulated into the International Telecommunications Union Recommended (ITU-R) models for rain attenuation over the tropics and results presented using MatLab and Origin Lab. Results of Ku band propagations showed that only locations in the tropical savanna and tropical monsoon climates experienced total signal outage for time percentage exceedance equal to or below 0.01% for both horizontal and vertical polarizations. At K band propagations, the five locations showed to have experienced signal outage at time exceedance equal to and below 0.01%, almost same was recorded for the Ka-band propagation. It was also observed that horizontal and vertical polarization of signal had slightly different rain attenuation values for the studied bands at the five locations, with horizontal polarization having higher values than vertical polarization.

  • "Curve number" (CN) indicates the runoff potential of an area. The US Soil Conservation Service (SCS)'s CN method is a simple, widely used, and efficient method for estimating the runoff from a rainfall event in a particular area, especially in ungauged basins. The use of soil maps requested from end-users was dominant up to about 80% of total use for estimating CN based rainfall-runoff. This study introduce the use of soil maps with respect to hydrologic and watershed management focused on hydrologic soil group and a case study resulted in assessing effective rainfall and runoff hydrograph based on SCS-CN method in a small watershed. The ratio of distribution areas for hydrologic soil group based on detailed soil map (1:25,000) of Korea were 42.2% (A), 29.4% (B), 18.5% (C), and 9.9% (D) for HSG 1995, and 35.1% (A), 15.7% (B), 5.5% (C), and 43.7% (D) for HSG 2006, respectively. The ratio of D group in HSG 2006 accounted for 43.7% of the total and 34.1% reclassified from A, B, and C groups of HSG 1995. Similarity between HSG 1995 and 2006 was about 55%. Our study area was located in Sosu-myeon, Goesan-gun including an approx. 44 $km^2$-catchment, Chungchungbuk-do. We used a digital elevation model (DEM) to delineate the catchments. The soils were classified into 4 hydrologic soil groups on the basis of measured infiltration rate and a model of the representative soils of the study area reported by Jung et al. 2006. Digital soil maps (1:5,000) were used for classifying hydrologic soil groups on the basis of soil series unit. Using high resolution satellite images, we delineated the boundary of each field or other parcel on computer screen, then surveyed the land use and cover in each. We calculated CN for each and used those data and a land use and cover map and a hydrologic soil map to estimate runoff. CN values, which are ranged from 0 (no runoff) to 100 (all precipitation runs off), of the catchment were 73 by HSG 1995 and 79 by HSG 2006, respectively. Each runoff response, peak runoff and time-to-peak, was examined using the SCS triangular synthetic unit hydrograph, and the results of HSG 2006 showed better agreement with the field observed data than those with use of HSG 1995.

  • The objective of this study was to estimate corn and soybean yield in Illinois and Iowa in USA using satellite and meteorological data. MODIS products for NDVI were downloaded from a NASA website. Each layer was processed to convert projection and extract layers for NDVI. Relations of NDVI from 2002 to 2012 with corn and soybean yield were investigated to find informative days for rice yield estimation. Weather data for the county of study state duration from 2002 to 2012 to correlate crop yield. Multiple regression models based on MODIS NDVI and rainfall were made to estimate corn and soybean yields in study site. Corn yields estimated for 2013 were $10.17ton\;ha^{-1}$ in Illinois, $10.21ton\;ha^{-1}$ in Iowa and soybean yields estimated were $3.11ton\;ha^{-1}$ in Illinois, $2.58ton\;ha^{-1}$ in Iowa, respectively. Corn and Soybean yield distributions in 2013 were mapped to show spatial variability of crop yields of the Illinois and Iowa state.

  • We analyzed the meteorological and radiation characteristics of Seoul metropolitan area using data from energy flux towers that were installed and operated by the Weather Information Service Engine (WISE). The meteorological and radiation variables included temperature, pressure, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity, surface temperature, rainfall amount, upward and downward solar radiation, upward and downward longwave radiation, albedo and emissivity from 14 energy flux stations located in the Seoul metropolitan area from July 2016 to July 2017. According to the monthly data during the period, the albedo is low and emissivity is high at the Jungnang station in the urban and opposite at Bucheon station in the suburban area. For a station in natural state, the albedo was higher than urban stations because solar radiation reflects effectively. Relatively high temperatures were shown at stations located in urban area with low albedo and high emissivity, in general. However, temperature was high at Gajwa and Ttukseom stations, the albedo was relatively high due to the station environment surrounded by glass wall buildings and the Han river. In the station located in suburban area, both emissivity and temperature were low. Among these stations, Bucheon station had the highest emissivity values because the surface temperature was relatively lower than that of the suburban area. As a result, the albedo decreased and the emissivity increased at stations in urban areas. Additionally, Seoul metropolitan area had less than $100Wm^{-2}$ of net radiation, which implied that radiation energy could be absorbed in the atmosphere.

  • It is one of the most crutial thing to secure efficient infrastructure of social infrastructure Including rna drinking water, sewer, gas, and electricity, etc. in modern society. Among them, the sourer system need to be properly maintained so as to sustain water quality over the large watershed thereby to provide reasonable level of living environment A few municipalities and private firms have so in been using sewer management system for assessing existing sewer network and auxiliary facilities. Such existing system can only provide functions to manage the sewer pipe itself and they can not fully estimate the amount of sewage water over the pipe through 4he network analysis due to the deficiency of the system Such a limited sewer network analysis function can only analyze the whole network under the assumption of uniformity. The results from such a process can not be fully implemented in the field. Therefore, this study emphasized the development of a sewer management system which can provide practical values from network analysts considering areal peculiarities using a zoning map utilizing a GIS. The system can support analyzing scenarios due to the changes of sewer amounts from the changes of population densities and rainfall amounts not to mention of calculating sewer amount for individual sewer pipes. furthermore, the system can support the decision making for better designing sewer facilities from the expansion of metropolitan areas and constructing satellite cities. Eventually, it will contribute to enhance the effectiveness of sewer-related works and services for residents as well as supporting a decision making for minor and major trouble-shootings.

  • The feasibility of cloud seeding in Korea is presented from analyses of precipitation, cloud amount, satellite data, and upper air data. The daily mean precipitation over Dae-Kwan-Ryong is the largest(~4.5 mm/day), while the intensity of precipitation (amount of yearly rainfall divided by the frequency of rain days) over Southern area is above 14 mm/day, which shows the largest in Korea. Both the daily mean and the intensity of precipitation over Andong area are the smallest with values of ~2.7 mm/day and ~11 mm/day, respectively. In the meanwhile, the occurrence frequency of appropriate cloud top temperature (-10'~-30') for cloud seeding over the region has a large value (~130 days/year). The precipitation patterns of the region vary with wind direction and intensity calculated from 43 AWSs(Automatic Weather Station) and the additional 7 rain guages which were installed along Northern and Southern part of the Sobaek mountain. The Sc(Stratocumulus) cloud type over Andong is frequently observed, and Cirrus and Altostratus next. From the results, it is estimated that the feasibility of cloud seeding over the area would be high if a proper strategy of cloud seeding is set up. LCL (Lifting Condensation Level) and CCL (Convective Condensation Level) have the most frequency in 1000-950 hPa being occupied 4/9 of total analysis period and in 400-500 hPa, respectively, with both small variations from season to season. The correlation between vapor mixing ratio and CCL is the highest in Summer and the lowest in Winter. It means that the height of cumulus in Summer is high with an abundant water vapor but vice versa in Winter, and that the strategy of cloud seeding should be different with seasons.
