대규모순환패턴과 같은 기후시스템에서의 상태와 변화를 정량화하여 나타낸 기상인자는 수문기상학적 변수와 밀접한 연관이 있는 것으로 알려져 있으며, 이에 따라 비정상성 빈도해석의 수행에 있어서 확률분포모형의 매개변수에 대한 공변량으로 널리 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 비정상성 강우빈도해석 시 매개변수의 공변량으로 우리나라의 극치강우의 장기경향성을 잘 반영할 수 있는 기상인자를 선정하고자 한다. 먼저, 시계열자료를 주기성을 가지는 내재모드함수와 장기경향성을 나타내는 잔여값으로 분해할 수 있는 앙상블 경험적 모드분해법을 이용하여 우리나라 전역에 분포된 61개 지점에서 관측된 연 최대치 강우자료의 평균 및 분산에 대한 잔여값을 추출하였다. 다음으로 11개의 월 단위 기상인자에 대한 계절별 연 평균 시계열과 추출된 평균 및 분산의 잔여값과의 상관계수를 산정하였다. 그 결과, 11개의 기상인자 중 Atlantic Meridional Mode (AMM), Atlantic Multi-decadal Oscillation (AMO), North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO)가 우리나라 연 최대치 강우자료의 평균 및 분산에 대한 장기경향성과 높은 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 계절적으로는 AMM과 AMO의 경우 이전 년도 가을철 평균이 전 지점 평균 약 0.6, NAO는 이전 년도 여름철 평균이 전 지점 평균 0.3 이상의 유의한 상관계수를 가지는 것으로 나타났다.

기후 시스템의 다양한 상호작용으로 인해 나타나는 대표적 현상인 강우는 수문학적 분석 과정의 필수적인 요소이며 장기 강우를 예측하는 것은 효율적인 수자원 관리에 중요한 기반이 되고 있다. 이러한 강우는 장기적으로 지구의 대기-해양 순환 패턴의 영향을 받으며, 특히 엘니뇨와 라니냐와 같은 기상 이변이 발생할 경우 대규모 순환에 변화가 일어나게 되어 강우에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지구의 순환 패턴 특성을 수치화한 전지구적 기상인자 중에서 우리나라 장기 강우를 예측하기 위한 기상인자를 선정하고 시계열 모형 구축을 통하여 예측력을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 강우에 내재된 다양한 대기-해양 순환 패턴으로부터 나타나는 주기적 요소를 추출하기 위해 앙상블 경험적 모드분해법을 사용하여 강우를 분해한 후, 각 분해된 강우자료와 전지구적 기상인자와의 상관성 분석을 통해 높은 상관성을 가진 기상인자를 선별하고 단계식 변수선택법으로부터 유의미한 기상인자를 최종적으로 선정하였다. 그 결과, 우리나라 기상청 60개 지점의 월별 강우자료 중 전반적으로 영향을 미치는 기상인자를 선정할 수 있었으며, 선정된 기상인 자로 구축된 시계열 모형을 통해 우리나라 장기 강우를 예측하였다.

Short-term prediction of travel speed has been widely studied using data-driven non-parametric techniques. There is, however, a lack of research on the prediction aimed at urban areas due to their complex dynamics stemming from traffic signals and intersections. The purpose of this study is to develop a hybrid approach combining ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and artificial neural network (ANN) for predicting urban travel speed. The EEMD decomposes the time-series data of travel speed into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and residue. The decomposed IMFs represent local characteristics of time-scale components and they are predicted using an ANN, respectively. The IMFs can be predicted more accurately than their original travel speed since they mitigate the complexity of the original data such as non-linearity, non-stationarity, and oscillation. The predicted IMFs are summed up to represent the predicted travel speed. To evaluate the proposed method, the travel speed data from the dedicated short range communication (DSRC) in Daegu City are used. Performance evaluations are conducted targeting on the links that are particularly hard to predict. The results show the developed model has the mean absolute error rate of 10.41% in the normal condition and 25.35% in the break down for the 15-min-ahead prediction, respectively, and it outperforms the simple ANN model. The developed model contributes to the provision of the reliable traffic information in urban transportation management systems.

A lot of nonstationary frequency analyses have been studied in recent years as the nonstationarity occurs in hydrologic time series data. In nonstationary frequency analysis, various forms of probability distributions have been proposed to consider the time-dependent statistical characteristics of nonstationary data, and various methods for parameter estimation also have been studied. In this study, we aim to introduce a parameter estimation method for nonstationary Gumbel distribution using ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD); and to compare the results with the method of maximum likelihood. Annual maximum rainfall data with a trend observed by Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) was applied. As a result, both EEMD and the method of maximum likelihood selected an appropriate nonstationary Gumbel distribution for linear trend data, while the EEMD selected more appropriate nonstationary Gumbel distribution than the method of maximum likelihood for quadratic trend data.

This study applied Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition(EEMD), a new methodology to define the timing of spring onset over the Republic of Korea and to examine its spatio-temporal change. Also this study identified the relationship between spring onet timing and some atmospheric variations, and figured out synoptic factors which affect the timing of spring onset. The averaged spring onset timing for the period of 1974-2011 was 11th, March in Republic of Korea. In general, the spring onset timing was later with higher latitude and altitude regions, and it was later in inland regions than in costal ones. The correlation analysis has been carried out to find out the factors which affect spring onset timing, and global annual mean temperature, Arctic Oscillation(AO), Siberian High had a significant correlation with spring onset timing. The multiple regression analysis was conducted with three indices which were related to spring onset timing, and the model explained 64.7%. As a result of multiple regression analysis, the effect of annual mean temperature was the greatest and that of AO was the second. To find out synoptic factors affecting spring onset timing, the synoptic analysis has been carried out. As a result the intensity of meridional circulation represented as the major factor affect spring onset timing.

Many researches illustrated that the magnitude and frequency of hydrological event would increase in the future due to changes of hydrological cycle components according to climate change. However, few studies performed quantitative analysis and evaluation of future rainfall in North Korea, where the damage caused by extreme precipitation is expected to occur as in South Korea. Therefore, this study predicted the extreme precipitation change of North Korea in the future (2020-2060) compared to the current (1981-2017) using stationary and nonstationary frequency analysis. This study conducted nonstationary frequency analysis considering the external factors (mean precipitation of JFM (Jan.-Mar.), AMJ (Apr.-Jun.), JAS (Jul.-Sept.), OND (Oct.-Dec.)) of the HadGEM2-AO model simulated according to the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) climate change scenarios. In order to select external factors that have a similar tendency with extreme rainfall events in North Korea, the maximum annual rainfall data was obtained by using the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method. Correlation analysis was performed between the extracted residue and the external factors. Considering selected external factors, nonstationary GEV model was constructed. In RCP4.5, four of the eight stations tended to decrease in future extreme precipitation compared to the present climate while three stations increased. On the other hand, in RCP8.5, two stations decreased while five stations increased.

Recently, climate indices represented by quantifying atmospheric-ocean circulation patterns have been widely used to predict hydrologic variables for considering long-term climate variability. Hydrologic forecasting models based on artificial neural networks have been developed to provide accurate and stable forecasting performance. Forecasts of hydrologic variables considering climate variability can be effectively used for long-term management of water resources and environmental preservation. Therefore, identifying significant indicators for hydrologic variables and applying forecasting models still remains as a challenge. In this study, we selected representative climate indices that have significant relationships with dam inflow time series in the Han-River basin, South Korea for applying the dam inflow forecasting model. For this purpose, the ensemble empirical mode decomposition(EEMD) method was used to identify a significance between dam inflow and climate indices and an artificial neural network(ANN) ensemble model was applied to overcome the limitation of a single ANN model. As a result, the forecasting performances showed that the mean correlation coefficient of the five dams in the training period is 0.88, and the test period is 0.68. It can be expected to come out various applications using the relationship between hydrologic variables and climate variability in South Korea.

지구상 해양, 대기 및 대륙 상호간의 연속적인 물의 거동을 나타내는 물의 순환의 주요 과정 중 하나인 유량 자료는 경년부터 수십년간의 다양한 기상학적 변동성을 내포하며 해당 지역의 수문기상학적 특성을 반영한다. 이러한 기상학적 변동성 중에서 비교적 긴 시간 주기를 나타내는 저주파 진동은 전지구적 기후변화의 장기적 영향을 나타내며 해수면 상승, 홍수 또는 가뭄과 같은 극한 수문사상을 나타내는 매우 주요한 지표로 활용되고 있지만 관측된 수문 시계열의 짧은 자료길이로 인하여 통계적 분석의 신뢰성에 한계를 보여왔다. 따라서 과거 수문 시계열의 확장으로 인하여 부재의 영역으로 남아있던 자료 기간의 한계가 보완되면 보다 정확하고 신뢰도 있는 분석이 가능할 것이다. 나무나이테를 활용한 고기후 복원 등의 연구가 증가하고 있지만 공학 분야에서 이를 실제로 활용한 연구는 아직 미비하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과거 기후의 정보를 바탕으로 복원된 수문 시계열을 활용하여 수문 시계열에 내재된 장기 기후 변동성을 통계적으로 분석하기 위한 문헌들을 조사하고, 장기적인 시간 흐름에 내재된 잠재적인 경향 및 변동성을 통계적 분석을 파악하고자 한다. 이를 위해 주어진 수문 시계열에 내재된 저주파 신호을 추출하기 위한 경험적 모드분해법을 활용하여 수문 자료에 내재된 장기 변동성을 추출하였으며, 산업화 이전부터 연장된 수문 시계열의 공학적 활용성을 분석하고자 한다.

In this paper, the characteristic of intrinsic mode function(IMF) and its orthogonalization of ensemble empirical mode decomposition(EEMD), which is often used in the analysis of the non-linear or non-stationary signal, has been studied. In the decomposition process, the orthogonal IMF of EEMD was obtained by applying the Gram-Schmidt(G-S) orthogonalization method, and was compared with the IMF of orthogonal EMD(OEMD). Two signals for comparison analysis are adopted as the analytical test function and El Centro seismic wave. These target signals were compared by calculating the index of orthogonality(IO) and the spectral energy of the IMF. As a result of the analysis, an IMF with a high IO was obtained by GSO method, and the orthogonal EEMD using white noise was decomposed into orthogonal IMF with energy closer to the original signal than conventional OEMD.

As a nonstationarity is observed in hydrological data, various studies on nonstationary frequency analysis for hydraulic structure design have been actively conducted. Although the inherent diversity in the atmosphere-ocean system is known to be related to the nonstationary phenomena, a nonstationary frequency analysis is generally performed based on the linear trend. In this study, a nonstationary frequency analysis was performed using climate indices as covariates to consider the climate variability and the long-term trend of the extreme rainfall. For 11 weather stations where the trend was detected, the long-term trend within the annual maximum rainfall data was extracted using the ensemble empirical mode decomposition. Then the correlation between the extracted data and various climate indices was analyzed. As a result, autumn-averaged AMM, autumn-averaged AMO, and summer-averaged NINO4 in the previous year significantly influenced the long-term trend of the annual maximum rainfall data at almost all stations. The selected seasonal climate indices were applied to the generalized extreme value (GEV) model and the best model was selected using the AIC. Using the model diagnosis for the selected model and the nonstationary GEV model with the linear trend, we identified that the selected model could compensate the underestimation of the rainfall quantiles.
