  • Drought risk assessment is usually performed qualitatively and quantitatively depending on the definition a drought. The meteorological drought indices have a limit of not being able to consider the hydrological components such as evapotranspiration, soil moisture and runoff, because it does not consider the water demand in paddies and water supply in reservoirs. Agricultural drought was defined as the reservoir storage shortage state that cannot satisfy water requirement from the paddy fields. The objectives of this study were to suggest improved agricultural drought risk assessment in order to evaluate of regional drought vulnerability and severity studied by using Reservoir Drought Index (RDI). The RDI is designed to simulate daily water balance between available water from agricultural reservoir and water requirement in paddies and is calculated with a frequency analysis of monthly water deficit based on water demand and water supply condition. The results indicated that RDI can be used to assess regional drought risk in agricultural perspective by comparing with the historical records of drought in 2012. It can be concluded that the RDI obtained good performance to reflect the historical drought events for both spatially and temporally. In addition, RDI is expected to contribute to determine the exact situation on the current drought condition for evaluating regional drought risk and to assist the effective drought-related decision making.

  • The loss of nitrogen and phosphorus from sediments in two watersheds, one naturally regenerating and one artificially planted, in Sacheon-myun, Gangneung-si, Gangwon Province, were measured two years after a forest fire in 2000. Sediment losses occurred five times in the course of the year. In the artificially planted watershed, $50{\sim}140$ times more nitrogen and $54{\sim}139$ times more phosphorus were lost with sediments during heavy rains, from July to August, than in the naturally regenerating watershed. When the typhoon Rusa struck the country, 1,389 times more nitrogen and 1,647 times more phosphorus were lost from the artificial watershed. In spite of the limited scope of this study, these results suggest that artificially planted watersheds are extremely vulnerable to catastrophic natural disasters such as typhoons. Elevated loss of nutrients in the artificially planted watershed might have resulted from the mechanized silvicultural practices employed immediately after the fire. To maximize soil preservation, the timing and necessity of plantation practices should be reconsidered, and rapidly regenerating vegetation should be protected to promote nutrient uptake and to mitigate nutrient loss from burned forests.

  • 본 연구는 SWAT모형을 이용하여 지석천유역의 토지이용 및 토지피복상태에 따른 유출량 및 수질을 모의해 보았다. 대상지점은 유출량 및 수질 실측자료의 수집이 용이한 지석천유역의 말단부의 남평지점을 대상지점으로 선정하였다. 남평지점의 2002~2005년 일별 유출량 및 8일 간격 수질측정 자료와 지석천유역내에 위치한 나주댐의 방류량자료를 바탕으로 2002년 자료를 활용하여 모형의 보정을 실시하였으며, 2003~2005년 자료를 사용하여 검정을 실시하였다. 또한 세밀한 모의를 위해 지석천유역에 해당하는 나주시와 화순군의 1차 오염총량관리 시행계획 보고서를 활용하여 점오염원의 유입조건을 추가 하였다. SWAT 모형에 의한 모의결과 유량자료에 대해서는 실측자료와 모의값이 유사한 결과를 나타내고 있으나, 수질자료에 대한 모의결과는 유량자료에 대한 결과와 비교하여 상대적으로 높은 오차를 포함하고 있는 것으로 모의되었다. 이는 대상유역 내에 산재해 있는 점오염원 자료의 보다 정확한 확보와 입력에 의해 보완되어 질 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구의 대상지점인 남평지점의 유출량 및 수질자료 모의를 위하여 SWAT 모형의 적용성이 타당한 것으로 판단된다.

  • Characteristics of unit loads of pollutants were investigated at a paddy fields area(Soro-ri) with large-scaled plots on loam soil during irrigation seasons of 1999 ∼2000. The average irrigation requirement of experimental paddy area are estimated at over 3,000 mm. The unit loads of pollutants in paddy fields area are determined by subtracting irrigation water load from outflow load (percolated and surface outflow loads). Surface outflow load in rainy days was calculated using the relationships of discharge and load, which are grouped into fertilizing and non-fertilizing periods. The ratios of the surface outflow load in rainy days to the total surface outflow load are 16.4% for T-N, 26.8% for T-P, and 23.3% far CODc,. The unit loads of pollutants show month-to-month and year-to-year variations, and monthly unit load of pollutants can show negative values, indicating that the paddy area acts as the pollutants sink. The average unit loads of the pollutants during irrigation seasons were estimated at 18.2 kg/ha fur T-N, 0.31 kg/ha for T-P, and 43.3 kg/ha for CODc,, which are smaller than the reported values for Kosei area in Japan.

  • 본 연구에서는 도시화가 진행중인 경안천($561.1km^2$)유역과 안성천($909.1km^2$) 유역을 대상으로 토지이용 변화를 분석하고 그에 따른 유출특성을 파악하는데 있다. 경안천과 안성천 유역의 과거(1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000)의 토지이용 분석결과 도시지역 면적이 각각 6.9%와 8.3%씩 증가하였다. 본 연구에서는 미래토지이용 예측을 위하여 CLUE-S (Conversion of Land Use Change and its Effects)모델을 이용하였다. 과거 토지이용 변화 특성을 분석하여 토지피복의 변화와 전이 특성값을 결정하였고, 이를 바탕으로 토지면적 시나리오, 변화 제한지역, 회귀식 결과와 토지이용 변화 특성 값을 CLUE-S 모델에 입력하여 미래의 토지이용변화를 모의하였다. 예측된 토지이용 정보를 가지고 2040s (2020-2059)와 2080s (2060-2099)의 기간으로 나누어 수문모의가 가능한 SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) 모형에 적용 및 그에 따른 유출특성을 파악하였다. SWAT 모형의 적용성 평가를 위하여 안성천과 경안천 유역을 대상으로 1998~2005의 기간 동안 일별 유출, 자료에 대한 보정 및 검증을 실시하였다. 미래의 토지이용 변화에 따른 유역의 유출특성의 영향은 도시의 비율이 큰 유역에서 더 많이 나타날 것으로 기대된다.

  • In this paper distributed models for simulating spatially and temporally varied moving storm in a watershed were developed. The complete simulation in a watershed is achieved through two sequential flow simulations which are overland flow simulation and channel network flow simulation. Two dimensional continuity equation and momentum equation of kinematic approximation were used in the overland flow simulation. On the other hand, in the channel network simulation two types of governing equations which are one dimensional continuity and momentum equations between two adjacent sections in a channel, and continuity and energy equations at a channel junction were applied. The finite difference formulations were used in the channel network model. Macks Creek Experimental Watershed in Idaho, USA was selected as a target watershed and the moving storm on August 23, 1965, which continued from 3:30 P.M. to 5:30 P.M., was utilized. The rainfall intensity fo the moving storm in the watershed was temporally varied and the storm was continuously moved from one place to the other place in a watershed. Furthermore, runoff parameters, which are soil types, vegetation coverages, overland plane slopes, channel bed slopes and so on, are spatially varied. The good agreement between the hydrograph simulated using distributed models and the hydrograph observed by ARS are Shown. Also, the conservations of mass between upstreams and downstreams at channel junctions are well indicated and the wpatial and temporal vaiability in a watershed is well simulated using suggested distributed models.

  • In this study, discharge of the pollutants from the rice paddies during cultivation and its pattern were investigated. The pH in the returned and rainfall water from ten different paddies was between 6.9 and 7.4, which is not associated with the cultivation time and farming style of individual paddy. TN and TP concentrations were highest in the beginning of first top dressing (fertilization), which indicates that proper top dressing and returned water management is crucial to reduce their discharge loads. In particular, TN concentration was more or less constant until tillering stage. This is thought to be due to the runoff of soil-adsorbed nitrogen and compost. Average SS concentration in the returned and rainfall water was 28 mg/L, and organics was predominantly soluble form, and highest COD 25 mg/L during transplanting, lowest 11.3 mg/L and average 11.3 mg/L. Density of TC (total coliform bacteria) was from 1000/100 mL to 114,000/100 mL and FC (fecal coliform) was 5 to 16% of TC density.

  • 하천 유역의 수자원관리에 있어서 홍수 및 가뭄 기간에 유출의 규모와 빈도와 같은 유출특성을 신뢰할 수 있도록 예측하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 수문모형은 이러한 유역의 신뢰성 있는 유출량 예측을 위해 이용되며, 수문모형의 결과물은 수문순환 과정의 공간적 표출이나 매개변수 추정방법 등 다양한 요인에 매우 민감하게 반영된다. 대부분의 수문모형 매개변수들은 해당 유역의 특성이나, 홍수 및 가뭄과 같은 극단적 유출상황에 따라 설정되어 있지 못한 실정이며, 이는 모형의 신뢰성 있는 보정 및 유출량 모의를 보다 정밀하게 수행하지 못하는 원인으로 작용하게 된다. 본 연구의 목적은 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool) 모형을 이용하여 유역의 하천 유출량을 모의함에 있어서 홍수 및 가뭄년, 평년의 유출특성이 모형의 매개변수 추정에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 하는 것이다. 이를 위해, 안성천 유역($1,658.7km^2$)을 대상으로 유역 내 3지점의 기상관측소(이천, 수원, 천안)를 대상으로 40년(1976~2015)동안의 일 기상자료를 수집하여 SWAT 모형을 구축하였다. 홍수년 및 가뭄년, 평년을 포함하는 선별된 기간에 대하여 다양한 목적함수($R^2$, NSE, RMSE, PBIAS)를 활용하여 각각의 조합된 기간의 극단적 유출특성에 초점을 맞추어 검보정을 수행하였다. 이후 홍수년 및 가뭄년, 평년을 포함하는 선별된 기간에서의 유출량의 규모와 빈도에 영향을 미치는 매개변수를 도출하고 민감도를 평가하였다.

  • The subbasin spatial scale can affect a hydrological simulation result. The objective of this study was to investigate an appropriate subbasin spatial scale for reproducing the different flow phases with the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). Moreover, this study addressed the total hydrologic model uncertainty using the Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) method. The hydrologic modelling uncertainty analysis revealed that the courser subbasin spatial scale provided a relatively better coverage of most of the observations by the 95PPU. On the other hand, the finer subbasin spatial scale produced the best single simulation output closer to the observation. Moreover, most of the observed high flows were enveloped by the 95PPU while this did not happen for the low flows. The overall average performance improvement through an appropriate subbasin spatial scale for reproducing the different flow phases in the Yongdam and Gilgelabay watersheds were found to be 36% and 53%, respectively. It is, therefore, a worth that to put more effort in reproducing the different flow phases by investigating an appropriate subbasin spatial scale to improve our understanding about the frequency and magnitude of the different flow phases.
