In this study, a one-dimensional numerical model was constructed to propose a flood control plan linked with the dam and river basin for the flood events of the Seomjin River in 2020. The flood level reduction of the downstream river was tested based on a scenario operation of the Seomjingang Dam and was also analyzed when a storage pocket was newly constructed as one of the river basin measures. It was confirmed that Seomjingang Dam's flood control capacity would be increased if the flood limit level was drastically lowered from the current EL. 196.5 m to EL. 188.0 m. In addition, if the upper area of the (old) Geumgok Bridge (which suffered great damage due to the loss of the levee) is used as a storage pocket, it would be effective in preventing floods in the lower area of it. In the era of the climate crisis, more integrated flood management is needed and basic river management must be observed.

Trend of some hydrologic features such as precipitation, runoff and reservoir storage rates in the five great river systems of Han, Nakdong, Keum, Yeongsan and Seomjin river watershed areas were surveyed and analysed. The sample period of Sept. 1994 to Aug. 1998 (four years) was chracterized by unusual climatic features such as El Nino, La Nina and areal terrible storms. And also average values of rainfall and runoff of the priod of 1961 to 1990 (30 years) were surveyed and analysed compared with the sample preiod events for the same river systems. In case of the monthly mean rainfall of the sample period (Sept. 1994 to Aug. 1998 : 48 months) in the five great river systems, 20 months, 19 months, 20 months, 21 months and 18 months in the Han, Nakdong, Keum, Yeongsan and Seomjin river system respectively were higher than monthly average rainfall records of the 30 year records. For the monthly runoff in the same river systems, 7 months, 9 months, 7 months, 11 months and 11 month in the Han, Nakdong, Keum, Yeongsan and Seomjin river systems respectively were higher than the monthly average runoff of the period of 30 years. For the storage rates, most of the dams in the Han river systems were highly stored through the year continuously and Paldang dam was specially higher than the other dams in the same river system. And most of the dams in the other river systems were stored irregularly but getting much better than early time during the 48 months. And special climatic features were not found during the sample period of 48 months, Sept. 1994 to Aug. 1998.

A statistical characteristics, relations of calendar and water year, and frequencies of precipitaion which are necessary for water resources planning were analyzed with long historical data(1905-1991 years). And the analysis of precipitation of the drought periods in 1967-1968 years was carried out. The study basins are the five major rivers in Korea. As a results of this study, annual precipitation shows an increasing trend but its variation has no statistical significance. The rellations of calendar and water year precipitation is presented, it shows that there are little difference of the total precipitation between them. The annual minimum series of total precipitation for the periods of 3, 6, 9, and 12 months by water year are constructed, and frequency precipitation for each periods using 2-parameter lognormal distribution is presented. The analysis of the precipitation in 1967-1968 years shows in a natural river basins that it would be a moderate drought, if dry seasons(Oct-May) or wet seasons(Jun-Sep) has 75 percents of historical mean precipitation of the same periods. And if it has less than 60 percents of historical mean precipitation, it would be a severe drought.

동진강 유역은 김제평야를 품고 있어 다른 지역에 비해 농지면적이 차지하는 비중이 크며, 이에 따라 전체 용수 사용량에서 농업용수의 비중이 절대적으로 높은 유역이다. 낙양 보는 동진강 중·상류에 위치한 이수시설로 상류에 위치한 섬진강댐과 같이 동진강 유역의 농업용수 공급에 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 낙양 보는 현재 동진강 방수문 4문, 김제간선 취입수문 2문, 정읍간선 취입수문 1문이 설치되어 있다. 관개기에는 동진강 도수로의 수문을 폐쇄하여 동진강 본류로의 하천유지용수를 차단하고 김제 배수로의 수문을 운용하여 농업용수를 공급하고 있으며 수혜구역의 용수수요 변화 및 기상상황, 하천상황에 따라 탄력적으로 운영하고 있다. 이러한 가동 보 운영으로 인하여 다양한 수위-유량관계의 변동성이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 가동 보 운영에 따른 수위-유량관계 곡선식의 변동성을 확인하기 위해 동진강 유역 낙양보 상류에 위치한 정읍시(거산교)관측소를 대상관측소로 선정하였다. 정읍시(거산교)관측소는 2012년에 개발된 수위-유량관계곡선을 2021년까지 사용하였고, 2022년 수위-유량관계곡선식 검증과 재개발을 위하여 유량측정을 실시하였다. 2012년에 개발된 수위-유량관계곡선은 검토 결과 강우에 의한 수위 상승시 보 완전 개방 상태의 측정성과를 확보하여 수위-유량관계 곡선식을 개발하였다. 그 결과 가동 보를 운영하는 3월~9월은 상류에 위치한 정읍시(행정교)관측소와 상하류 역전 현상이 발생하였고, 매년 비정상적인 유량이 산정되는 결과를 초래하였다. 2022년 신뢰도 높은 유량자료와 수위-유량관계곡선식 개발을 위해 낙양 보 완전개방 및 부분개방에 따른 다양한 유량측정성과와 낙양 보 수문 모니터링 결과를 확보하였다. 낙양 보는 2022년 1월~3월, 10월~12월은 수문 6문을 완전 개방하여 동진강에 하천유지용수를 공급하고, 4월부터 동진강 방수문을 폐쇄하여 농번기 농업용수를 확보한 후, 5월~9월에 확보된 농용수를 김제 배수문 2문을 부분개방하면서 공급하는 방식이다. 이 기간동안 낙양 보 수문에 대한 모니터링을 위해 정읍시(거산교)관측소 수위자료에 대한 검토를 실시하였으며, 유량측정시에는 정확한 유량측정성과와 곡선식 확인을 위하여 동일한 위치에서 측정을 수행하였다. 또한, 수위 또는 유량이 변하는 구간은 연속측정을 실시하였으며, 모니터링 결과와 유량측정성과를 바탕으로 수위-유량관계 변화를 분석하였다. 그 결과 저수위1식은 수문 완전개방, 저수위2식은 수문 완전폐쇄, 저수위3~6식은 수문 부분개방 곡선식을 개발하였으며, 저수위 구간은 낙양보 운영에 따라 총 27차례 기간분리가 발생하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서는 낙양 보 운영에 따른 다수의 유량측정성과와 모니터링 자료를 확보하였으며, 확보한 유량측정성과의 분석을 통한 신뢰도 높은 수위-유량관계곡선식을 개발하였고 이를 통해 생산된 유량자료는 정확도가 매우 높은 것으로 분석되었다.

Flood frequency estimate is an essential index for determining the scale of small and middle hydraulic structure. However, this flood quantity could not be estimated directly for practical design purpose due to the lack of available flood data, and indirect method like design rainfall-runoff method have been used for the estimation of design flood. To give the good explain for design flood estimates, regional flood frequency analysis was performed by flood index method in this study. First, annual maximum series were constructed by using the collected data which covers from Japanese imperialism period to 1999. Wakeby distribution recommended by WMO(1989) was used for regional flood frequency analysis and L-moment method by Hosking (1990) was used for parameter estimation. For the homogeneity of region, the discordance and heterogeneity test by Hosking and Wallis(1993) was carried for 4 major watersheds in Korea. Physical independent variable correlated with index flood was watershed area. The relationship between specific discharge and watershed area showed a type of power function, i.e. the specific discharge decreases as watershed area increases. So flood quantity according to watershed area and return period was presented for each watershed(Han rivet, Nakdong river, Geum river and Youngsan/Seomjin river) by using this relation type. This result was also compared with the result of point frequency analysis and its regionalization. It was shown that the dam construction couldn't largely affect the variation of peak flood. The property of this study was also examined by comparison with previous studies.

For the lake case, the detention phenomenon of water body occurs and stays for a long time. Especially, following the layer of water depth direction, the lake body and water quality problems are different from the water quality of river. So according to time, the stream and water quality can be simulated by the 3-Dimensional Model, which can divide water layer for reservoir or lake. The water quality simulation result will become more reliability. For this study, the 3-Dimension Model - EFDC was used to simulate water quality of Unam reservoir in the Sumjin Dam. The HEC-GeoHMS and HEC-HMS Rainfall - Runoff Model based on GIS were used to estimate long-term runoff, and input data was constructed to the observed water level, meteorological data, water temperature, T-N and T-P. In order to apply the EFDC model, water depth was divided into 3 layers and 5,634 grids were extracted. After constructing the grid net, the water quality change of Unam reservoir in time and space was simulated. Overall, long term runoff simulation reflected the actual observed runoff well, through the water quality simulation, according to the pollution factors, the behavior characteristics can be checked, and the simulated water quality can be properly reflected. The function of EFDC has been confirmed, which water quality can be properly simulated. In the near future, to establish countermeasures for Intake Facilities of Watershed and Management, this support which some basic tools can be applied is in expectation.

In this study, the hydrological and meteorological drought index with precipitation as a major factor were calculated, and various analyses of hydrological drought were conducted. The Modified Surface Water Supply Index (MSWSI) was applied to the hydrological drought index and Standardize Precipitation Index (SPI) was used to estimate the meteorological drought index. The target area for the estimation is the dam area among MSWSI categories. The 4001 basin with 43 years data from 1975 to 2017 was analyzed for the drought occurrence status and time series plotted with the monthly SPI and MSWSI. For the dam watershed based on the precipitation that has the role of a water supply in the hydrological cycle, correlation analysis of precipitation, dam inflow, and stream flow was performed by the monthly and moving average (2~9 months), and the correlation between meteorological and hydrological index by monthly and moving average (3, 6 months) was then calculated. The result of multifaced analysis of the hydrological drought index and meteorological drought index is believed to be useful in developing water policy.

This study simulate three-dimensional ocean circulation patterns using the EFDC model in the Kwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay, considering tide, water temperature and salinity. The numerical model results were verified using observed data. The model results well reproduced the observed data. As a result, ocean circulation patterns in the study area show convergence and divergence in the middle area of Noryang waterway and Daebang waterway, the residual flow patterns show typical two-layer circulation. According to the change of the density stratification in the Kwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay, the effect of fresh water is dominant in study area. In the case of Jinju Bay, although it is strongly influenced by the Namgang fresh water, also it is affected by Seomjin River when there is no discharge by Namgang Dam. On the other hand, the stratification of the Kwangyang Bay is relatively enhanced by the discharge of Namgang Dam.

최근 기후변화로 인해 전 지구적인 기후 특성이 변화하고 있으며, 기후 특성의 변화는 수문순환에도 큰 영향을 미친다. IPCC (Intergorvernmental Panel on Climate Change) 6차 기후변화 평가 보고서(2022)에 의하면 AR5 (Assessment Report 5)와 비교해 AR6 (Assessment Report 6)에서는 높은 신뢰도로 기후변화 영향의 범위 및 규모는 보다 확대되었으며, 단기적인 리스크로 극한기후 현상의 빈도와 강도 및 기간이 증가할 것으로 예측하였다. 또한, 중장기적인 리스크로 하천 유량의 규모와 관련한 극한 현상의 변화에 따라 수자원 관리 측면에서 어려움을 겪을 것으로 전망하였다. 위와 같은 기후변화에 대응하기 위해 국내에서는 기후변화와 관련된 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 국내 기후변화 관련 연구로는 ArcSWAT 모형을 활용한 RCP4.5, RCP8.5 시나리오 기반 미래 유출량 추정에 관한 연구와, SWAT, IHACRES, GR4J 모형을 이용한 용담댐 유역의 미래기간 유출량 변화 모의, SWAT과 VIC 모형을 활용한 미래 저유량 예측 시 관측 자료와 비교해 모형이 가지는 불확실성 평가 등 기후변화 영향을 평가 및 예측하기 위한 연구는 활발히 진행 중이다. 하지만, 최근 연구의 주요 동향은 유출 모형을 활용한 미래 유출량 모의에 초점이 맞추어져 있으며, 관측 자료를 통한 기후변화 평가 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한반도 5대 수계(한강, 금강, 낙동강, 영산강, 섬진강) 유량 관측소의 실측 유량을 활용해 과거기간의 기후변화에 따른 유출특성의 변화와, 미래기후변화 시나리오 자료를 활용한 미래기간 유출특성의 변화를 분석하였다. 분석 인자로 연 유출량, 1일 최대 유출량, 상위 90%에 해당하는 유출량, 하위 10%에 해당하는 유출량 등을 연도별로 분석하였다. 분석 결과 연도별 총 유출량의 큰 변화는 없지만, 홍수 기간의 첨두유량이 증가하는 동시에 갈수 기간 또한 빈도와 규모가 증가하는 양극화 현상이 진행되고 있음을 확인하였다.
