The spatial distribution of precipitation trends according to urbanization, geographical and topographical conditions have been studied. In this study, precipitation data from 1973 to 2006 were analyzed for 56 climatological stations including the Seoul metropolis in South Korea. In addition to annual average daily precipitation, monthly average daily precipitation in April, July, October and January were analyzed, considering seasonal effect. The geographical and topographical characteristics of these sites were examined using GIS analysis. Land use status of the study area was also examined to estimate the extent of urbanization. The study results indicate that annual average precipitation increased, and monthly average precipitation in April and October decreased, while those in January and July increased. Considering urbanization effect, annual average precipitation and monthly average precipitation in July increased; however, monthly average precipitation in January, April and October decreased. Furthermore, compared with urbanization rate and proximity to coast, average elevation of study area appeared to be the most close correlation with annual and monthly averages of precipitation trends.

유효유량이란 수년에 걸쳐 연 유사량의 대부분을 이동시키는 유량으로 정의되며 유량-빈도분포곡선과 유사량 곡선을 이용하여 산정된다. 유효유량은 하도를 설계하거나 기존 하도의 안정성을 평가하는데 있어 기준유량이 될 수 있는 필수적인 요소이지만, 현재 국내의 경우 이에 대한 분석이 충분히 수행되지 않아 특정한 패턴을 도출하기 힘든 실정이다. 특히 우리나라의 하천은 연강수량의 약 70%가 여름철에 집중되는 기후적 특성의 영향으로 하상계수가 미국과 유럽에 비해 10에서 25배 크게 나타나 외국사례를 국내에 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구하도복원이 계획 또는 진행되어 유효유량 산정이 필수적이며 하상계수가 매우 큰 만경강, 청미천, 함평천을 대상하천으로 선정하여 유효 유량을 산정하고 수리적, 지형학적 특성과의 연관성을 분석하고자 한다. 유효유량을 계산하는 데 있어 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요소는 유량빈도 간격 수와 유량빈도 간격의 설정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유효유량 산정을 위한 유량 간격으로 산술등간격(Arithmeic Bin)과 로그간격(Logarithmic Bin)을 모두 사용하였으며 각각 간격수가 25개, 50개, 100개인 경우에 대해 유효유량을 계산하여 비교하였다. 산술등간격과 로그간격을 사용한 유효유량 산정결과 중 최대, 최소값을 제외한 나머지의 평균값을 각 대상하천의 유효유량으로 선정하였다. 수리적, 지형학적 특성에 따른 대상하천 분석 결과 하상계수가 클수록 유효유량이 크게 산정되는 것으로 나타났으며 하상 경사, 하상토의 중앙입경 크기와 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 수심-하폭비와 사행도의 경우 유효유량과 반비례하는 것으로 나타났다.

수질오염총량관리제에서 단위유역 할당부하량은 지자체의 개발용량과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있기 때문에 상 하류 지역간의 첨예한 관심거리가 되고 있다. 총량관리제는 기준유량과 목표수질에 대한 기준배출부하량의 달성을 목적으로 하고 있기 때문에 합리적이고 과학적인 기준유량 및 목표수질의 설정이 무엇보다 중요하다. 또한 합리적인 수질모델링을 필요로 하는데, 유량배분은 모델링 과정에서 중요한 영향을 미치며, 지역의 기준배출부하량을 결정하는 결정적인 요소 중의 하나이다. 기존의 유량배분은 대부분 관측지점을 기준으로 한 단순한 면적비 유량배분기법(SAWA; simple area-based water-balance analysis)에 의존해왔다. 그러나 SAWA는 특정유역의 토지피복, 토양, 지형경사 및 강우분포 등의 수문학적 특성을 고려하지 못하는 한계점을 가지고 있다. 즉, 동일한 면적의 유역이라도 이러한 수문 특성인자에 따라 유출되는 유량이 달라지는 현상을 고려하지 못하고 있다. 이는 곧 지역의 기준배출부하량의 신뢰성에 영향을 미치기 때문에 지역간 분쟁의 소지가 될 수 있다. 본 연구는 기존의 유량배분 방법인 SAWA가 가지는 한계점을 극복하고자 강우분포 및 토지피복의 수문학적 특성을 이용한 유량배분기법(HIWA; hydro-infomatical water-balance analysis)의 개발을 목적으로 수행되었다. 강우분포와 토지피복이 하천유량에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 공간정보화 한 후 지형정보체계(GIS)의 수문분석 기법을 이용하여 유량을 배분하였다 ARC/INFO의 KRIGING 보간법을 이용하여 구축한 등강우분포도와 토지피복에 따른 유출특성을 분석하여 강우유출 해석을 위한 가중지형정보를 생성하였다. 연구는 2003년 10월-2004년 3월의 미호천수계 및 수질오염총량관리단위유역 말단지점의 실측자료를 이용하였으며, 연구결과 기존의 SAWA보다 본 연구에서 제안한 HIWA가 유량배분의 정확도를 높일 수 있음이 입증되었다.

In this study, the regional factors in Gangwondo were used to analysis the relationship between point precipitation and areal precipitation. The most province area in Gangwondo is consist of mountainous terrain. At the east part of the Taebaek Mountains, the slope is very steep and the coastal plains don't exist. At the west part of the Taebaek Mountains, the slope is mild, there are many rivers, such as South Han-river and North Han-river, and the regions are very complex terrain. The data of 66 stations in Gangwondo and the PRISM (Parameter-elevation Regression on Indepedent Slope Model) were used to estimate the spatial distribution of precipitation. According to the topographic conditions, such as elevation and slope, and the regional conditions, such as Youngdong and Youngseo, the spatial distribution of precipitation is well shown. At the results of cross-validation, the RRBIAS and the RRMSE are under 0.1 and therefore the analysis of the PRISM are well conducted. Consequently the PRISM in this study is a appropriate method to estimate the spatial distribution of precipitation in Gangwondo.

In general, it has been usually used the method that assess rock slope stability using stereographic projection method, limit equilibrium analysis, numerical analysis and slope stability evaluation table. Several methods for assessing the stability of rock slopes has been proposed on the basis of site investigation data. These method adopted different evaluation items and weighting factors by researchers, organization and nation. But the researches for each evaluation items were insufficient. So the effectiveness of rock slope stability evaluation items for geometrical configuration (slope height, slope direction and angle, dip and dip direction of major discontinuity, absolute value for the direction difference for slope and major discontinuities) and topographical characteristic (possibility of topographical water concentration, upper natural slope angle, slope configuration) using 315 failure and stable highway rock slope analysis data, AV (abnormal value) analysis and NMAV (normalized maximum abnormal value) analysis were evaluated.

We analyze a precise seabed feature around the Hupo Bank by using Multi-beam echosounder. Multi-beam echosounder system can observe the topography undulation according to the navigation of the survey ship by shooting wide beam. It is possible to embody a precision seabed feature because it can be make high density of incompletion depth sounding between survey lines. Through this survey, there is the Hupo Bank which is 84 km long, 1-15 km wide, 5.3-160 m deep in the center, at the west is moat, at the east is scarp and submarine canyon. The top of the Hupo Bank is the Wangdol reef that has 5.3 m in depth of water at least. Moat in survey area is 30 m long, and 30-40 m wide and has a depressed channel. The gap of depth of water in scarp is approximately 60 m and shows a characteristic of cuttig plane. Submarine canyon is 3.5 - 13.5 km wide.

Because the satellite imagery can detect the radiative heat from the surface using the thermal IR (TIR) channel, there have been many efforts to verify the relationship between the land surface temperature (LST) and urban heat island. However, the relationship between geomorphological characteristics like surface aspects and LST is relatively less studied. Therefore, the geomorphological elements, for example, surface aspects and surface slopes, are considered to evaluate their effects on the change of the surface temperature distribution using the Landsat 7 ETM+ TIR channel and the possibility of the image to detect anthropogenic heat from the surface. We found that the surface aspect is ignorable but the surface slope with the sun elevation influences on the surface temperature distribution. Also, the radiative heat from the surface to the atmosphere could not be accurately recorded by the satellite image due to the surface slope but the slope correction process used in this study could correct the surface temperature under slope condition and the slope correction, in fact, was not influenced on the average temperature of the surface. The possibility of the anthropogenic heat detection from the surface from the satellite imagery was verified as well.

Recent terrain rendering applications such as 3D games and virtual reality, use GPU-based ray-casting method for rendering high-quality scenes in realtime. As the size of terrain dataset grows bigger, the rendering speed will be decreased by the increase of the number of texture samplings. To accelerate the conventional ray-casting, we propose an efficient ray casting method with subdivided bounding boxes which are based-on GPU quadtree traversal. The subdivision of the terrain's bounding box can reduce the empty spaces effectively. By performing the ray-casting with this compact bounding box, we can efficiently reduce computation with empty space skipping. Unlike the recent quadtree-based empty space skipping techniques which perform the tree traversal at each ray, our method traverses the tree only once per frame. Therefore, we can save much computational time.

The flow apportioning algorithms with digital elevation models have been developed to reflect reasonable flow divergence properties but they showed several defects related to the connectivity of channel cells, various divergence features along to local topography and channel cells' size etc. Topographic data used by existing flow apportioning algorithms are flow accumulation area and local slope. However, the size and location of channel cells which play the dominant role in the flow pathway were not properly considered. Therefore, a new flow apportioning algorithm considering various flow divergence characteristics in the complicate terrain is proposed. The GA optimization scheme is used to represent the location and scale of the channel pixel. Improved result can be obtained by using both a new flow apportioning algorithm and optimization.
