To improve global risk management, understanding the characteristics and distribution of precipitation is crucial. However, obtaining spatially and temporally resolved climatic data remains challenging due to sparse gauge observations and limited data availability, despite the use of satellite and reanalysis products. To address this challenge, merging available precipitation products has been introduced to generate spatially and temporally reliable data by taking advantage of the strength of the individual products. However, most of the existing studies utilize all the available products without considering the varying performances of each dataset in different regions. Comprehensively considering the relative contributions of each parent dataset is necessary since their contributions may vary significantly and utilizing all the available datasets for data merging may lead to significant data redundancy issues. Hence, for this study, we introduce a site-specific precipitation merging method that utilizes the Quadruple Collocation (QC) approach, which acknowledges the existence of error-cross correlation between the parent datasets, to create a high-resolution global daily precipitation data from 2001-2020. The performance of multiple gridded precipitation products are first evaluated per region to determine the best combination of quadruplets to be utilized in estimating the error variances through the QC approach and computation of merging weights. The merged precipitation is then computed by adding the precipitation from each dataset in the quadruplet multiplied by each respective merging weight. Our results show that our approach holds promise for generating reliable global precipitation data for data-scarce regions lacking spatially and temporally resolved precipitation data.

The Amazon River basin is one of the largest basins in the world, and its ecosystem is vital for biodiversity, hydrology, and climate regulation. Thus, understanding the hydrometeorological process is essential to the maintenance of the Amazon River basin. However, it is still tricky to monitor the Amazon River basin because of its size and the low density of the monitoring gauge network. To solve those issues, remote sensing products have been largely used. Yet, those products have some limitations. Therefore, this study aims to do bias corrections to improve the accuracy of Satellite Precipitation Products (SPPs) in the Amazon River basin. We use 331 rainfall stations for the observed data and two daily satellite precipitation gridded datasets (CHIRPS, TRMM). Due to the limitation of the observed data, the period of analysis was set from 1st January 1990 to 31st December 2010. The observed data were interpolated to have the same resolution as the SPPs data using the IDW method. For bias correction, we use convolution neural networks (CNN) combined with an autoencoder architecture (ConvAE). To evaluate the bias correction performance, we used some statistical indicators such as NSE, RMSE, and MAD. Hence, those results can increase the quality of precipitation data in the Amazon River basin, improving its monitoring and management.

기후변화의 영향으로 과거에 경험하지 못한 이상강우 발생 증가로 댐 및 수자원 관리에 어려움이 증대되고 있다. 특히, 강우의 시·공간적 변동성 심화로 기존 지상강우계만으로는 정확한 유역 단위의 강우량 추정이 어려우며 관측강우자료의 불확실성은 댐 운영의 부정확성을 야기할 수 있다. 최근 지상강우계의 대안으로 시·공간 해상도가 우수한 강우레이더의 활용 및 현업적용이 증대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 안정적인 수력댐 운영 및 수재해 예방을 위해 고해상도 강우레이더와 지상관측 강우자료를 활용하여 수력댐 유역의 강우추정 정확도를 개선하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 환경부 합성레이더 강우자료와 지상강우관측자료를 이용하여 조건부 합성기법으로 격자강우자료의 정확도를 개선하였다. 대상 유역은 한국수력원자력(주)의 수력발전용댐(팔당, 의암, 춘천, 화천, 청평, 도암, 괴산, 섬진강, 보성강댐) 이다. 특히, 레이더 오차 분석을 통해 지형효과의 고려가 필요한 수력댐 유역을 선정하여 고도영향 조건부합성기법을 적용하도록 하였다. 이를 통해 수력댐 유역의 지형 및 기상 특성을 차별화한 보정이 가능하였다. 또한, 소유역별 레이더 유역평균강우의 오차를 실시간으로 저감하기 위해 화음탐색법과 칼만필터 기법을 적용하여 수력댐 수계 내 172개 소유역의 유역평균강우량을 실시간으로 최적화 할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 수력댐 유역의 고해상도 강우 정보를 기반으로 GIS 웹 표출 시스템에 개발하여 수력댐 운영 업무활용 할 수 있도록 지원하고자 한다.

연속 측정된 수위자료를 유량자료로 환산하는 방법중의 하나인 수위-유량관계곡선식은 국내에서 널리 사용된다. 현장에서 측정된 유량자료로 개발되는 수위-유량관계곡선식(이하 곡선식)은 일반적으로 측정성과의 정확도가 그 정도를 좌우하지만, 개발과정에서 개발자의 주관적인 판단에 의해 좌우되기도 한다. 정확한 곡선식을 개발하기 위해 개발자는 수리학적 특성(수위-${\sqrt{Q}}$, 수위-유속, 수위-단면적 등)을 검토하고, 수문학적 특성(상하류 관계, 유출분석 등)을 검토하여 최종 곡선식을 결정하게 된다. 이러한 여러 검토들 중에 수위-${\sqrt{Q}}$ 검토는 비록 정성적인 검토임에도 불구하고 곡선식의 구간분리, 기간분리, 성과의 이상유무, GZF(Gauge Height of Zero flow) 등을 확인할 수 있는 방법으로 실무에 많이 이용된다. 대부분의 곡선식은 측정성과를 기반으로 개발되어 내삽부분에서는 그 정확도가 상당히 높다고 할 수 있지만 외삽부분은 구간분리의 위치, GZF 등에 따라 큰 차이를 보일 수 있다. 그러나 기존의 수위-${\sqrt{Q}}$ 에 의한 정성적인 검토는 개발자의 숙련도에 따라 곡선식의 정확도가 좌우되는 경향이 있다. 본 연구에서는 수위-${\sqrt{Q}}$ 검토의 이론적 배경을 살펴보고 일본 곡선식의 사례를 응용하여 수위-${\sqrt{Q}}$ 검토의 정량화를 시도하였다. 또한 보다 객관적인 구간분리 위치 결정 및 GZF산정의 방법을 제시하여 개발과정에서의 오류를 최소화 할 수 있고 이는 정확한 유량자료의 생산으로 이어질 것으로 기대된다.

Accurate quantitative precipitation estimation plays an important role in hydrological modelling and prediction. Instantaneous quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) by utilizing the weather radar data is a great applicability for operational hydrology in a catchment. Previously, regression technique performed between reflectivity (Z) and rain intensity (R) is used commonly to obtain radar QPEs. A novel, recent approaching method which might be applied in hydrological area for QPE is Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Networks. LSTM networks is a development and evolution of Recurrent Neuron Networks (RNNs) method that overcomes the limited memory capacity of RNNs and allows learning of long-term input-output dependencies. The advantages of LSTM compare to RNN technique is proven by previous works. In this study, LSTM networks is used to estimate the quantitative precipitation from weather radar for an urban catchment in South Korea. Radar information and rain-gauge data are used to evaluate and verify the estimation. The estimation results figure out that LSTM approaching method shows the accuracy and outperformance compared to Z-R relationship method. This study gives us the high potential of LSTM and its applications in urban hydrology.

The interaction of the blade of surface-piercing propellers (SPPs) with the water/air surface is a physical phenomenon that is difficult to model mathematically, so that such propellers are usually designed using empirical approaches. In this paper, a newly developed mechanism for measuring the torque of SPPs in an open water circuit is presented. The mechanism includes a single-component load cell and a deformable torque sensor to detect the forces exerted on the propeller. Deformations in the sensor elements lead to changes in the strain gauge resistance, which are converted into voltage using a Wheatstone bridge. The amplified signal is then recorded by a 16-channel data recording system. The mechanism is calibrated using a 6-DoF calibration system and a Box-Behnken design, achieving 99% accuracy through multivariate regression and ANOVA. Finally, the results of performance tests on a 4-blade propeller were presented in the form of changes in the torque coefficient as a function of feed rate. The results show that the new mechanism is 8% more accurate than conventional empirical methods.

High performance concrete (HPC) is widely used in civil engineering due to its high durability and low permeability etc. Compared with ordinary concrete, HPC may develop much higher AS (autogenous shrinkage) at early age due to the relative low water cement (w/c) ratio and adding of mineral admixtures, which is one of the main reasons for early age micro-cracking of HPC structures. This paper studies the early age property of HPC columns under similar construction-site surroundings by embedded strain transducers. Results show that for HPC structure, early-age autogenous shrinkage especially within the first day after concrete pouring is pretty large. AS within the first day are 60% larger than those for 14 days in this research for all specimens. Therefore it should be taken into account for structure durability. By comparison of PHPC (plain HPC column) and RHPC (reinforced HPC column) specimens, the effects of reinforced bars on AS and temperature distribution have been analyzed. Also the influence of w/c ratio on AS is demonstrated.

This paper presents a comparative study on numerical and wave-maker generated waves. The wave-makers employed to carry out the experiments have mathematical forms. The linear and quadratic models were tested. When it comes numerical analysis, the authors used the FLUENT which is widely used commercial code. Only two dimensional cases were considered. The experiments were done in a small wave flume. The waves were generated for various frequencies to examine the characteristics of the water waves. The comparison of the numerical and wave-maker generated waves were made.
