Computation of Areal Reduction Factor and Its Regional Variability

면적우량환산계수의 산정과 그 지역적 변화

ARF(Areal Reduction Factor) have been developed and used to convert point I-D-F to areal I-D-F in many countries. In Korea, through ARF was calculated in Han river basin by several researchers, it has limit to apply to other regions \ulcorner 새 low density of rainfall gauge station and shortage of data. In this study ARF has developed in areas of high density of rainfall gauge station, Pyungchang river(han river), Wi stream(nakdong river), and Bochung stream(Guem river) basin by fixed-area method. And coefficient of variation of annual mean precipitation was presented to use ARF in othere areas and its applicability was analyzed.
