Snow accumulation on the road frequently induces a big traffic problem in the cold snowy region. Accurate prediction on snow distribution is fundamental for solving drifting snow disasters on roads. The present study adopts the transient method to simulate the wind-induced snow distribution on embankment based on the mixture multiphase model and dynamic mesh technique. The simulation and field measurement are compared to confirm the applicability of the simulation. Furthermore, the process of snow accumulation is revealed. The effects of friction velocity and snow concentration on snow accumulation are analyzed to clarify its mechanism. The results show that the simulation agrees well with the field measurement in trends. Moreover, the snow accumulation on the embankment can be approximately divided into three stages with time, the snow firstly deposited on the windward side, then, accumulation occurs on the leeward side which induced by the wake vortex, finally, the snow distribution reaches an equilibrium state with the slope of approximately 7°. The friction velocity and duration have a significant influence on the snow accumulation, and the vortex scale directly affected the snow deposition range on the embankment leeward side.

Due to the complexity and difficulty in meeting the multiphase flow complexity, similarity, and multiscale characteristics, the mechanism of snow drift is so complicated that the snow deposition prediction is still inaccurate and needs to be far improved. Meanwhile, the validation of prediction methods is also limited due to a lack of field-measured data about snow deposition. To this end, a field measurement activity about snow deposition around a cube with time was carried out, and the snow accumulation process was measured under blowing snow conditions in northwest China. The maximum snow depth, snow profile, and variation in snow depth around the cube were discussed and analyzed. The measured results indicated three stages of snow accumulation around the cube. First, snow is deposited in windward, lateral and leeward regions, and then the snow depth in windward and lateral regions increases. Secondly, when the snow in the windward region reaches its maximum, the downwash flow erodes the snow against the front wall. Meanwhile, snow range and depth in lateral regions have a significant increase. Thirdly, a narrow road in the leeward region is formed with the increase in snow range and depth, which results in higher wind speed and reforming snow deposition there. The field measurement study in this paper not only furthers understanding of the snow accumulation process instead of final deposition under complex conditions but also provides an important benchmark for validating prediction methods.

This paper investigated the wind-snow flow around the bogie region of a high-speed train under crosswinds using a coupled numerical method of the unsteady Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and discrete phase model (DPM). The flow features around the bogie region were discussed and the influence of bogie fairing height on the snow accumulation on the bogie was also analyzed. Here the high-speed train was running at a speed of 200 km/h in a natural environment with the crosswind speed of 15 m/s. The mesh resolution and methodology for CFD analysis were validated against wind tunnel experiments. The results show that large negative pressure occurs locally on the bottom of wheels, electric motors, gear covers, while the positive pressure occurs locally on those windward surfaces. The airflow travels through the complex bogie and flows towards the rear bogie plate, causing a backflow in the upper space of the bogie region. The snow particles mainly accumulate on the wheels, electric motors, windward sides of gear covers, side fairings and back plate of the bogie. Longer side fairings increase the snow accumulation on the bogie, especially on the back plate, side fairings and brake clamps. However, the fairing height shows little impact on snow accumulation on the upper region of the bogie. Compared to short side fairings, a full length side fairing model contributes to more than two times of snow accumulation on the brake clamps, and more than 20% on the whole bogie.

소양강댐 유역의 관측유입량과 융설 모의의 포함 유무에 따른 모의 결과를 비교함으로써 적설 및 융설 모형의 필요성을 분석하였다. 사용한 융설 모형은 Sugawara 등의 개념적 융설 모형이고, 강우-유출 모형은 NWS-PC를 사용하였다. 모형의 매개변수는 다단계 자동보정법에 의해 추정하였고, 각 단계별로 SCE-UA 알고리즘에 의해 최적화되었다. 매개변수 추정시와 검증 모의에서 RMSE, PBIAS, NSE, PME 통계량은 융설을 포함한 모의가 그렇지 않은 모의보다 좋은 결과를 나타내었다. 소양강댐의 관측유입량은 약 두 달 이상의 자기상관성을 나타내었고, 융설을 포함하지 않은 경우에 모의된 유량시계열은 20일 정도의 자기상관성을 나타내었다. 융설을 포함한 경우의 모의유량 시계열은 관측 유량시계열과 유사하게 약 두 달 이상의 자기상관성을 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과로 소양강댐 유역의 강우-유출 모의시 적설 및 융설 모형을 포함하여야 모형의 정확성을 향상시킬 수 있다.

댐유입량 예측에 대하여 데이터 기반 머신러닝 및 딥러닝(Machine Learning & Deep Learning, ML&DL) 분석도구들이 공개되어 다양한 분야에서 ML&DL의 적용연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 모델의 자체 성능향상 뿐만 아니라 모델의 특성을 고려한 데이터의 전처리도 댐유입량을 정확하게 예측하게 하는 중요한 모델성능 향상의 요소라고 할 수 있다. 특히 기존 강우자료는 적설량을 열선 설비를 통하여 녹여 강우량으로 환산되어 있으므로, 융적설에 따른 강우와 유입량의 상관관계를 왜곡하게 된다. 따라서 본연구에서는 소양강댐과 같이 융적설의 영향을 받는 댐유역에 대한 댐일유입량 예측시 겨울에 강설량이 적설이 되어 적게 유출되는 현상과, 봄에 융설로 인하여 무강우나 적은 비에도 많은 유출이 일어나는 물리적 현상을 ML&DL모델로 적용하기 위하여 필요한 강우 데이터의 전처리에 대한 연구를 수행 하였다. 강우계열, 유입량계열을 조합하여 3가지 머신러닝(SVM, RF, LGBM)과 2가지 딥러닝(LSTM, TCN) 모델을 구축하고, 최적 하이퍼파라메터 튜닝을 통하여 적합 모델을 적용하고 한 결과, NSE 0.842~0.894로 높은 수준의 예측성능을 나타내었다. 또한 융적설을 반영한 강우보정 데이터를 만들기 위하여 융적설 모의 알고리즘을 개발하고, 이를 통하여 산정된 보정강우를 머신러닝 및 딥러닝 모델에 적용한 결과 NSE 0.841~0.896 으로 융적설 적용전과 비슷한 높은 수준의 예측 성능을 나타내었으나, 융적설 기간에는 조정된 강우로 학습되어 예측되었을 때 실측유입량에 근접하는 모의결과를 나타내었다. 결론적으로, 융적설이 영향을 미치는 유역에서의 데이터 모델 적용시에는 입력자료 구축시 적설 및 융설이 물리적으로 타당한 강우-유출 반응에 적합하도록 전처리과정이 중요함을 밝혔다.

Increasing urban sprawl and climate changes have been causing unexpected high-intensity rainfall events. Thus there are needs to enhance conventional disaster management system for comprehensive actions to secure safety. Therefore long-term and comprehensive flood management plans need to be well established. Recently torrential snowfall are occurring frequently, causing have snow traffic jams on the road. To secure safety and on-time operation of the Bi-modal tram system, well-structured disaster management system capable of analyzing the urban flash flooding and snow pack melt/freezing due to unexpected rainfall event and snowfall are needed. To secure safety of the Bi-modal tram system due to torrential snowfall, the snow melt simulation capability was investigated. The snow accumulation and snow melt were measured to validate the SWMM snow melt component. It showed that there was a good agreement between measured snow melt data and the simulated ones. Therefore, the Bi-modal tram disaster management system will be able to predict snow melt reasonably well to secure safety of the Bi-modal tram system during the winter. The Bi-modal tram disaster management system can be used to identify top priority area for snow removal within the tram route in case of torrential snowfall to secure on-time operation of the tram. Also it can be used for detour route in the tram networks based on the disaster management system predicted data.

Wetlands often function as a nutrient sink. It is well known that increased input of nutrient increases the primary productivity but it is not well understood what is the fate of produced biomass in wetland ecosystem. Water and sediment quality, decomposition rate of cellulose, and sediment accumulation rate in 11 montane marshes in northern Sierra Nevada, California were analyzed to trace the effect of nitrogen and phosphorus content in water on nutrient dynamics. Concentrations of ammonium, nitrate, soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) in water were in the range of 27 to 607, 8 to 73, and 6 to 109 ppb, respectively. Concentrations of ammonium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium in water were the highest in Markleeville, which has been impacted by animal farming. Nitrate and SRP concentrations in water were the highest in Snow Creek, which has been impacted by human residence and a golf course. Cellulose decomposition rates ranged from 4 to 75 % per 90 days and the highest values were measured in Snow Creek. Concentrations of total carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in sediment ranged from 8.0 to 42.8, 0.5 to 3.0, and 0.076 to 0.162 %, respectively. Accumulation rates of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus fluctuated between 32.7 to 97.1, 2.4 to 9.0, and 0.08 to $1.14gm^{-2}yr{-1}$, respectively. Accumulation rates of carbon and nitrogen were highest in Markleeville and that of phosphorus was highest in Lake Van Norden. Correlation analysis showed that decay rate is correlated with ammonium, nitrate, and SRP in water. There was no correlation between element content in sediment and water quality. Nitrogen accumulation rate was correlated with ammonium in water. These results showed that element accumulation rates in montane wetland ecosystems are determined by decomposition rate rather than nutrient input. This study stresses a need for eco-physiological researches on the response of microbial community to increased nutrient input and environmental change because the microbial community is responsible for the decomposition process.

본 연구에서는 적설 추정 알고리즘과 추계 일기 생성 모형을 활용하여 관측 적설의 특성을 재현하는 연속 적설심 자료 모의 방법을 소개한다. 적설 추정 알고리즘은 강수 유형 판단, Snow Ratio 추정, 그리고 적설 깊이 감소량 추정까지 총 3단계로 구성된다. 먼저 강수 발생시 지상기온과 상대습도를 지표로 활용하여 강수 유형을 판단하고, 강수가 적설로 판별되었을 때 강수량을 신적설심으로 환산하는 Snow Ratio를 추정한다. Snow Ratio는 지상 기온과의 sigmoid 함수 회귀분석을 통해 추정하였으며, precipitation rate 조건(5 mm/3hr 미만 및 이상)에 따라 두 가지 함수를 적용하였다. 마지막으로 적설 깊이 감소량은 온도 지표 snowmelt 식을 이용하여 추정하였으며, 매개변수는 적설 깊이 및 온도 관측 자료를 활용하여 보정하였다. 속초 관측소 자료를 활용하여 매개변수를 보정 및 검증하여 높은 NSE(보정기간 : 0.8671, 검증기간 : 0.7432)를 달성하였으며, 이 알고리즘을 추계 일기 생성 모형으로 모의한 합성 기상 자료(강수량, 지상기온, 습도)에 적용하여 합성 적설심 시계열을 모의하였다. 모의 자료는 관측 자료의 통계 및 극한값을 매우 정확하게 재현하였으며, 현행 건축구조기준과도 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 모형을 통하여 적설 위험 분석 분야뿐 아니라 기후 전망 자료와의 결합, 미계측 지역에 대한 자료 모의 등에도 광범위하게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
