  • The prediction for vegetation attenuation using the RET model recommended in the ITU-R requires six RET input parameters. Among these, 4 parameters are related to the scattering characteristics of vegetation. To extract these parameters, two methods can be used. One is to extract the parameters by curve fitting of the measured vegetation-attenuation curve with the RET prediction model, and the other is to use the additional phase function measurement data. In the former method, fitting is quite complex and it does not result in the unique results in some cases. In addition, the extracted parameters lack the physical meaning as well. Thus, in this paper, the measurement method of phase function, and the method of extracting the RET model parameters which lead to more accurate and physically more meaningful results are presented. The extracted RET model parameters are also presented. The RET modeling method, measurement data, and the extracted RET model parameters presented in this paper were submitted to the ITU-R meeting in 2006, and adapted for ITU-R report and recommendation P.833.

  • This study discusses an effort to build a model to link normalized difference vegetation indices (NDVI) and socio-economic indicators derived from village survey (1990, 1993, 1996, and 2000) statistical data in Bekasi, West Java, Indonesia. Socio-economics indicators of sub-district level, in this study the number of agricultural households (AH), are aggregated from village level data. NDVI from Landsat-TM resolution data (1989 and 1997) are computed to detect land use/land cover (LULC) dynamics in the sub-district areas. Attention is mainly paid on the examination of agricultural land cover changing in the sub-district level. NDVI measurements might be used to predict AH dynamics as showed by computed linear regression models.

  • The relationship between hydrologic processes and scale is one of the more complex issues in surface water hydrology. Disturbances that change vegetation and/or soil properties have been known to subsequently alter the landscape. The primary objective of this study was to estimate the grain size of soils with different properties from the hydraulic conductivity using pedotransfer functions. The double ring infiltrometer method was used to measure the vertical hydraulic conductivity of three soils under different soil planar surface treatments. Seven selected pedotransfer functions were used to estimate percentile diameters and the reduction in infiltration caused by compaction was misconstrued as caused by changes in percentile diameter. Results showed that compaction on the sandy loamy foot paths reduced the hydraulic conductivity by about 50%. The study showed that perceptual models of infiltration processes and appreciation of scale problems in modeling are far more sophisticated than normally presented in texts. Hydraulic measurement methods are still relevant and will provide significant information of grain size of the soils.

  • 하천에 침입한 식생은 흐름 저항을 증가시키며, 이로 인해 유속이 감소하고 홍수위가 증가하며 하천 지형 변화에도 상당한 영향을 미치게 된다. 이 연구는 한강하류부에 위치한 장항습지 식생이 홍수위에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위한 연구이다. 홍수 흐름 예측에는 이차원 흐름모형을 사용하였으며, 식생의 영향은 조도계수를 변화시키는 방법을 사용하였다. 장항습지의 수목 밀생지역에서 유속이 약 60% 이상 감소되는 것으로 나타났으며, 저수로에서 유속은 약 20~30% 증가되는 것으로 나타났다. 좌안으로 접근할수록 유속의 증가가 두드러지는 것으로 예측되었다. 식생을 고려했을 때, 유속이 좌안으로 치우치고 장항습지의 경계 부근에서 줄어드는 현상은 장항습지의 성장과도 관련이 있는 것으로 판단된다.

  • The aim of this study is to evaluate the hazard of landslides at Penang, Malaysia, using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and remote sensing. Landslide locations were identified in the study area from interpretation of aerial photographs and field surveys. The topographic and geologic data and satellite image were collected, processed and constructed into a spatial database using GIS and image processing. The used factors that influence landslide occurrence are topographic slope, topographic aspect topographic curv ature and distance from drainage from topographic database, geology and distance from lineament from the geologic database, land use from TM satellite image and vegetation index value from SPOT satellite image. Landslide hazardous area were analysed and mapped using the landslide-occurrence factors by probability - likelihood ratio - method. The results of the analysis were verified using the landslide location data. The validation results showed satisfactory agreement between the hazard map and the existing data on landslide location.

  • 침수식생이 식재된 개수로에서 식생밀도에 따라 유동 및 난류의 특성이 변화된다. 이러한 특성은 식생에서의 유사, 영양물질, 용존 산소 등에 영향을 미치며 수중 생물의 서식에 변화를 준다. 따라서 침수식생이 식재된 개수로 흐름을 이해하는 것은 중요하게 여겨지고 있으며 많은 선행연구자들에 의해 실험 및 수치모의를 통해 활발히 연구되고 있다. 하지만 대부분의 RANS(Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes)를 기반으로 한 선행연구에서는 침수식생의 흐름 특성을 반영하지 않은 모형을 이용하여 정확한 모의 결과를 도출하지 못 하였다. 이에 정확한 침수식생 흐름을 수치모의하기 위해서는 침수식생 흐름의 특성을 반영한 지배방정식을 이용해야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 침수식생 흐름의 특성을 RANS 모형 중의 하나인 SA (Spalart-Allmaras) model에 반영하고, 식생밀도에 따른 유동 및 난류량을 실측치와 비교하는 것이다. RANS 방정식을 이용하여 난류모델링을 하였으며, 난류폐합문제를 해결하기 위해서 modified SA model을 이용하였다. 침수식생에서의 흐름을 해석하기 위해 운동량방정식에 식생항력을 추가하였다. 선행연구자의 식생수로 실험을 바탕으로 모형검증을 하였으며, 식생밀도에 따라 평균유속 및 난류구조를 확인하였다.

  • 토지 피복과 관련된 지표면 파라미터는 일반적으로 지표에서 감지되어 위성영상에 나타난 많은 물리적 프로세스에 의존하며 계절적 주기성을 갖는 시간적 변화를 보인다. 하모닉 모형은 복잡한 파형을 정현파 성분의 합으로 표시함으로써 레벨, 주기, 진폭 및 위상 요소를 통한 변동을 분석함으로써 표면에서 관찰되는 계절적 변화 패턴을 모델링하는 데 적합한 모형이다. 본 연구에서는 MODIS NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) 시계열 자료를 이용하여 하모닉 패턴의 특성에 따라 토지 피복을 분류하는 방법론을 제안하였다.

  • Wetlands are a critical component of the global carbon cycle and are essential in mitigating climate change. Accurately quantifying wetland carbon emissions is crucial for understanding and predicting the impact of wetlands on the global carbon budget. The uncertainty quantifying carbon in wetlands may comes from the ecosystem's hydrological, biochemical, and microbiological variability. The Community Land Model is a sophisticated and flexible land surface model that offers several configuration options such as energy and water fluxes, vegetation dynamics, and biogeochemical cycling, necessitating careful consideration for the alternative configurations before model implementation to develop a practical model framework. We conducted a systematic literature review, analyzing the alternatives, focusing on the carbon stock pools configurations and the parameters with significant sensitivity for carbon quantification in wetlands. In addition, we evaluated the feasibility and availability of in situ observation data necessary for validating the different alternatives. This analysis identified the most suitable option for our study site, the Binbong Wetland, in Korea.

  • The high oxidants, which occur the daily maximum concentrations in the afternoon, are transported into the other region via long range transport mechanisms or trapped within the shallow mixing boundary layer and then removed physically (deposition, transport by mountain wind, etc.) and chemically (reaction with local sources). Therefore, modeling formation of photochemical oxidants requires a complex description of both chemical and meteorological processes. In this study, as a part of air quality studies, we reviewed various aspects of photochemical modeling on the basis of currently available literature. The result of the review shows that the model is based on a set of coupled continuity equations describing advection, diffusion, transport, deposition, chemistry, emission. Also photochemical oxidant models require a large amount of input data concerned with all aspects of the ozone life cycle. First, emission inventories of hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxides, with appropriate spatial and temporal resolution. Second, chemical and photochemical data allowing the quantitative description of the formation of ozone and other photochemically-generated secondary pollutants. Third, dry deposition mechanisms particularly for ozone, PAN and hydrogen peroxide to account for their removal by absorption on the ground, crops, natural vegetation, man-made and water surfaces. Finally, meteorological data describing the transport of primary pollutants away from their sources and of secondary pollutants towards the sensitive receptors where environmental damage may occur. In order to improve our present study, shortcomings and limitation of existing models are pointed out and verification process through observation is emphasized.

  • This study is conducted to eveluate the potential of a GIS to assist an application problem. GIS has been applied to rainfall-runoff modeling over Soyang area. Various rainfall-runoff models have been developed over the years. A distributed rainfall-runoff model is selected because it considers the topographic characteristics over the basin. GIS can handle the spatial data to enhance the modeling. GRASS-a public domain GIS S/W-is used for GIS tools. Digital database is generated, including soil map, vegetation map, digital elevation model, basin and subbasin map, and water stream. The inpu data for the model has been generated and manupulated using GIS. The database, model and GIS are integrated for on-line operation. The inflow hydrographs are tested for the flood of Sept., 1990. This shows the promising results even without the calibration.
