On 31 July 2014, there was a localized torrential rainfall ($58.5mm\;hr^{-1}$) caused by a strong convective cell with thunder showers over Daegwallyeong. In the surface synoptic chart, a typhoon was positioned in the East China Sea and the subtropical high was expanded to the Korean peninsula. A WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) numerical simulation with a resolution of 1 km was performed for a detailed analysis. The simulation result showed a similar pattern in a reflectivity distribution particularly over the Gangwon-do region, compared with the radar reflectivity. According to the results of the WRF simulation, the process and mechanism of the localized heavy rainfall over Daegwallyeong are as follows: (1) a convective instability over the middle part of the Korean peninsula was enhanced due to the low level advection of warm and humid air from the North Pacific high. (2) There was easterly flow from the coast to the mountainous regions around Daegwallyeong, which was generated by the differential heating of the insolation among Daegwallyeong and the Yeongdong coastal plain, and nearby coastal waters. (3) In addition, westerly flow from the western part of Daegwallyeong caused a strong convergence in this region, generating a strong upward motion combined by an orographic effect. (4) This brought about a new convective cell over Daegwallyeong. And this cell was more developed by the outflow from another thunderstorm cell to the south, and finally these two cells were merged to develop as a strong convective cell with thunder showers, leading to the record breaking maximum rainfall per hour ($58.5mm\;hr^{-1}$) in July.

Recently, rainfall induced hazard has been increased gradually, for example, typhoon Rusa in 2002 and Maemi in 2003. In addition, localized heavy rainfall has been also caused tremendous damage to railroad systems. Measured data from the Meteorological Adminstration sometimes, However, are not in accordance with those of rain gauges in local area, because of its good distance. This study develop automatic alarming software to estimate and prevent these kind of rainfall induced hazards in railroad system with online transportation.

Recently, due to global warming, the average temperature of the earth has risen, and the glaciers in the Antarctic and Arctic melt, leading to a rise in sea level, which is accompanied by powerful natural disasters such as strong typhoons and tsunamis around the world. Accordingly, a precipitation in summer in Korea also increased, and changes in the form of precipitation were showed with the increase. Compared to the past, the frequency of localized heavy rain is increasing, and the damage from flooding and flooding is increasing day by day. In this study, based on the precipitation data measured in hours from May to September from 2016 to 2021 according to the change in the precipitation form, according to the nature of the torrential rain investigated the change in the summer precipitation form. In addition, the trend of localized heavy rain from 2016 to 2021 was confirmed by classifying them into two types: localized heavy rains caused by cyclones and weather front, and by typhoons and large-scale cyclones. Through this, the change in precipitation due to the climate crisis should not be viewed as a single phenomenon, it should be reflected and discussed on our life focused on scientific and technological development, and it should be used as a stepping stone for realizing a humanistic.

The slope-related disasters in Korea usually occur between July and September during the typhoon and localized heavy rain. This means that the rainfall is the most important factor that leads to the slope-related disasters. The slope-related disasters can happen at very short time and lead to big damage. To forecast the change of the heave of the groundwater in slope the Seep/w program was used.

Accurately predicting localized heavy rainfall is challenging without high-resolution mesoscale cloud information in the numerical model's initial field, as precipitation intensity and amount vary significantly across regions. In the Korean Peninsula, the radar observation network covers the entire country, providing high-resolution data on hydrometeors which is suitable for data assimilation (DA). During the pre-processing stage, radar reflectivity is classified into hydrometeors (e.g., rain, snow, graupel) using the background temperature field. The mixing ratio of each hydrometeor is converted and inputted into a numerical model. Moreover, assimilating saturated water vapor mixing ratio and decomposing radar radial velocity into a three-dimensional wind vector improves the atmospheric dynamic field. This study presents radar DA experiments using a numerical prediction model to enhance the wind, water vapor, and hydrometeor mixing ratio information. The impact of radar DA on precipitation prediction is analyzed separately for each radar component. Assimilating radial velocity improves the dynamic field, while assimilating hydrometeor mixing ratio reduces the spin-up period in cloud microphysical processes, simulating initial precipitation growth. Assimilating water vapor mixing ratio further captures a moist atmospheric environment, maintaining continuous growth of hydrometeors, resulting in concentrated heavy rainfall. Overall, the radar DA experiment showed a 32.78% improvement in precipitation forecast accuracy compared to experiments without DA across four cases. Further research in related fields is necessary to improve predictions of mesoscale heavy rainfall in South Korea, mitigating its impact on human life and property.

In this study, we developed a modular rainwater infiltration system that can be applied for general purposes in urban areas to prepare for localized heavy rain caused by climatic change. This study also analyzed the system's effects on reducing runoff. An analysis of the system's effects on reducing runoff based on rainfall data and monitoring data obtained between September 2012 and December 2013 after the system was installed showed that approximately 20~22% of the runoff overflowed from the infiltration facility. Also, an analysis of the runoff that occurred during the monsoon season showed that 25% of the runoff overflowed through the storm sewer system of the urban area. These results show that the rainwater overflows after infiltrating the detention facility installed in the area during high-intensity rainfall of 100mm or higher or when precipitation is 100mm for 3~4 days without the prior rainfall. According to precipitation forecasts, torrential rainfall is becoming increasingly prevalent in Korea which is increasing the risk of floods. Therefore, the standards for storm sewer systems should be raised when planning and redeveloping urban areas, and not only should centralized facilities including sewer systems and rainwater pump facilities be increased, but a comprehensive plan should also be established for the water cycle of urban areas. This study indicates that decentralized rainwater management can be effective in an urban area and also indicates that the extended application of rainwater infiltration systems can offer eco-friendly urban development.

우리나라는 여름철의 큰 호우로 인해 주기적인 홍수피해가 발생하며, 이러한 호우의 원인은 태풍과 집중호우로 구분 할 수 있다 태풍은 열대 지방에서 발생하여 주기적으로 우리나라를 내습하여 극심한 강우와 강풍으로 인해 큰 피해를 발생시키고 있으며, 일반적으로 태풍에 의한 피해가 집중호우보다 큰 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우리나라에 발생하는 강우 사상을 태풍과 집중호우로 구분하여 호우 원인별로 지속시간별 연 최대 강우량을 구축하였다. 따라서 발생 원인별로 구축된 시간강우자료의 통계분석을 통해 기본적인 특성을 파악하고 빈도해석을 통해 강우의 발생 원인별로 확률강우량을 산정하여 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과에서 태풍에 의해 산정된 확률강우량은 지속시간과 재현기간이 커질수록 확률강우량의 증가가 전호우에 의한 확률강우량 보다 큰 지점이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

최근 기후변화로 인한 국지성 호우 및 태풍 피해가 자주 발생하고 있다. 이와 같은 피해를 저감하기 위해서는 정확한 강우의 예측과 홍수량 산정이 필요하다. 그러나 지점 및 레이더 강우 시 공간적 오차를 포함하고 있고, 유출 모형에 의한 유출수문곡선 역시 보정을 실시하더라도 관측유량과 오차를 가지고 있어 불확실성이 존재한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 확률론적 강우 앙상블을 생성하여 강우의 불확실성을 확인하였다. 또한 유출 결과를 통해 수문 모형의 불확실성을 확인하였고, 블랜딩 기법을 이용하여 하나의 통합된 유출 수문곡선을 제시하였다. 생성된 강우앙상블은 강우강도 및 지형적인 영향으로 레이더가 과소 관측이 될 때, 강우 앙상블의 불확실성이 큰 것을 확인하였고, 블랜딩 기법을 적용하여 산정된 최적 유출 수문곡선은 유출모형의 불확실성을 크게 줄이는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 활용한다면, 정확한 홍수량 산정 및 예측을 통해 집중호우로 인한 피해를 줄일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, unusual change of weather occurred in world wide region causes localized heavy rainfall and consequently disasters like landslide and debris flow in steep slope area. And the main factors of these disasters are rainfall and forest fire. To verify the existing landslide prediction and warning system, information about landslide and rainfall were collected for a data base system and analysed.
