Interpolation of Missing Groundwater-Level Data at the National Groundwater Monitoring Wells

장기 관측 지하수위 결측자료 보완

Long ranged groundwater-level data often have the missing intervals because of the trouble of monitoring systems at the national groundwater monitoring wells. Geostatistical methods are very useful for the supplement of the missing data. Ordinary kriging was applied for the interpolation of the missing groundwater-level data with a smooth sinusoidal variation. Conditional simulation was used for the reproduction of the missing data with high fluctuations. Two geostatistical methods produced the very accurate estimates at the missing intervals and reproduced their original variations. This fact is proved by the cross validation test and graphical method, respectively.
