This study presents some results of a preliminary study for the coupled precipitation and river flow prediction system. The model system in based on three numerical models, Mesoscale Atmospheric Simulation model for generating atmospheric variables. Soil-Plant-Snow model for computing interactions within soil-canopy-snow system as well as the energy and water exchange between the atmosphere and underlying surfaces, and TOPMODEL for simulating stream flow, subsurface flow, and water tabled depth in an watershed. The selected study area is the 2,703 $\alpha_4$ $\km_2$ Soyang River basin with outlet at Soyang dam site. In addition to providing the results of rainfall and stream flow predictions, some results of DEM and GIS application are presented. It is obvious that the accurate river flow predictions are highly dependant on the accurate predictation predictions.

A physically based model for rainfall-runoff simulation in agricultural watersheds equipped with tile drains is developed from the TOPMODEL framework. The model is based on detailed topographical information provided by the Digital Elevation Model (DEM), which is available in the Geographic Information System GRASS. Nine possible flow generation scenarions are suggested and used in the development of the model. The storage and delaying effects in the soil matrix and in the tile system are simulated with a second order linear reservoir. The model can identify the portions of the hydrators resulting from tile flow, subsurface flow and surface runoff.

Many rainfall-runoff model, which is applied discharge calculation for effective water-resource planning and management needs topographic and parameter of basin character. But it is very difficult to apply real a phase. Accordingly in this study filling up these problems. Applying GIS(geographic information system) through environment creating input data or concerning with GIS and rainfall runoff model. We built environment that analyze hydrograph showing discharge variation by time. GIS software for constructing input data is used by ArcView. For analysis of hydrograph in Basin, TOPMODEL applied topographic index. Besides for estimate of appliance to rainfall-runoff model, simple storm event and complex storm event are applied rainfall data which was before.

This study was conducted to simulate storm hydrographs on a small forested watershed using TOPMODEL, which is a distributed hydrological model. The Myeongseong watershed, which is 58.3 ha in size, was selected to monitor rainfall and runoff data. The Monte Carlo simulation was also used to calibrate parameters of TOPMODEL. Six rainfall-runoff pairs collected at the watershed in the year 1997 were used for parameter calibration, and eight rainfall-runoff pairs collected during the period of $1998\sim1999$ were used for validation effort. The errors of runoff volume ranged from -2.74% to 1.81%, and an average value of model efficiency in terms of runoff volume was 0.92 for the calibration period. The average value of observed peak discharge was $0.324m^3\;s^{-1}$ for six rainfall-runoff pairs, while the prediction value was $0.295m^3\;s^{-1}$. The simulation errors of peak discharge varied according to rainfall characteristics and antecedent condition, within ranges of -27.65% to -1.13%. The model efficiency for the validation period was 0.92. For the validation period, observed peak discharges have an average value of $0.087m^3\;s^{-1}$ and average value of simulated peak discharge was $0.090m^3\;s^{-1}$. Observed and simulated values of time to peak for the calibration period were 18.3 hrs and 11.0 hrs, respectively, and 16.6 hrs and 13.5 hrs, respectively, for the validation period.

수공 구조물 설계를 위한 설계홍수량의 산정은 실측홍수량의 빈도해석을 통해 빈도별 설계 홍수량을 결정하는 것이 가장 바람직하나, 관측 홍수량 자료의 부족으로 인해 대상 유역의 강우량을 강우-유출 모형에 입력하여 설계 홍수량을 구하는 것이 일반적이다. 이러한 목적을 위해 이용되는 강우-유출 모형의 효과적인 적용을 위해서는 적절한 모형 매개변수의 결정이 매우 중요하며, 이를 위해 주로 이용되는 GIS 프로그램의 경우에는 적절한 격자 크기의 결정이 매개 변수 및 홍수량의 산정에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 분포형 강우-유출 모형인 TOPMODEL을 이용한 분석을 실시하였으며, 격자 크기의 변화에 따른 홍수량의 변화를 실측 홍수량과 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과 괴산댐 유역 의 경우 격자 크기 $100{\times}100m$일 때 추출된 지형학적 매개변수를 이용해서 모의한 유출량이 실측 유량과 가장 근접한 것으로 분석 되었으며, 격자 크기에 따른 홍수량의 변화를 파악할 수 있었다. 추후 대상 유역을 확대한 연구를 통해 유역특성에 따른 격자 크기 결정 기준이 수립된 다면 분포형 강우-유출 모형의 신뢰성 향상에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper briefly describes the classification of GIS- based model, and introduces some practical grid- based models such as TOPMODEL (Beven of al., 1979, 1984), AGNPS (Young of al., 1989), KIMSTORM (Kim, 1998; Kim of al,, 1998), and GRISMORM (Kim of al.,20110). Current status of GIS data construction promoted by Ministry of Construction and Transportation (MOCT) and system development of water resources information by Korea Water Resources Corporation (KOWACO) is briefly described. Further research needs for GIS-based modeling will be emphasized with some recommendations on GIS data preparation and proper field observation data collection.

The wetness index has been frequently used to describe the spatial distribution of the hydrologic status on the platform of the grid based model such as TOPMODEL and THALES. The statistical and spatial distributions of the wetness index are primarily depend upon the flow determinatin algorithm. The comparison among various algorithms and the decision making of the application algorithms are desirable. The entropy is used to evaluate the information transfer patterns of the various flow determination algorithm. The Holmgren's H algorithm and the SDFAA algorithm were found to be the better scheme than the other approaches to maximize the information contents of the wetness index.

This research investigated the applicapability of an improved algorithm to calculate the topographic index, ln($\alpha$/tan B), for the topography of Korea employing channel initiation threshold area(CIT) and an exponent for the gradient(H). hanjaechun subwatershed in Cheongdochun and Dongok subwatershed in Wichun test watershed were selected as study areas. The digital elevation models(DEM) of study areas have been made with the resolution from 10m to 100m. Application of CIT to the traditional algorithm provide reasonable computation method in considering channel pixel impact. Introduction of the gradient exponent(H) made it possible to obtain better flow convergence effect in concave topography comparing with the traditional multiple flow direction algorithm. The improved algorithm shows the capability to relax the overestimation problem of rising limb of hydrograph through reducing overestimated high value of topographic index.
