Drought is a disaster that causes prolonged and wide scale damage. Recently, the severity and frequency of drought occurrences, and drought damage have been increased significantly due to climate change. As a result, a quantitative study of drought factors is needed to better understand and prevent future droughts. In the case of agricultural drought, several existing studies examine the economic damage caused by droughts and their causes, but these studies are not well suited to estimating crop-oriented agricultural drought damage and the factors that absolutely affect agricultural drought. This study determines which factors most affect agricultural drought. It examines meteorological factors and those related to agricultural water supplied by irrigation facilities. Rice paddy production per unit area is lower than the average from the last two years where agricultural drought occurred. We compare the relative frequency of agricultural drought impacts with irrigation facilities, effective reservoir storage, the number of water supply facilities, and the meteorological drought index such as Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI). To identify factors that affect agricultural drought, we correlate rice paddy production anomalies with irrigation water supply for the past two years. There was a high positive correlation between rice paddy production and irrigation water usage, and there was a low or moderate negative correlation between rice paddy production anomalies compared to the average of the past two years and SPI. As a result, agricultural water supply by irrigation facilities was judged to be more influential than meteorological factors in rice paddy production. This study is expected to help local governments establish policies related to agricultural drought response.

The development of prolong and severe drought can directly impact on the environment, agriculture, economics and society of country. A lot of efforts have been made across worldwide in the planning, monitoring and mitigation of drought. Currently, different drought indices such as the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) are developed and most commonly used to monitor drought characteristics quantitatively. However, it will be very meaningful and essential to develop a more effective technique for assessment and monitoring of onset and end of drought. Therefore, in this study, the hidden Markov Bayesian classifier (MBC) was employed for the assessment of onset and end of meteorological drought classes. The results showed that the probabilities of different classes based on the MBC were quite suitable and can be employed to estimate onset and end of each class for meteorological droughts. The classification results of MBC were compared with SPI and with past studies which proved that the MBC was able to account accuracy in determining the accurate drought classes. For more performance evaluation of classification results confusion matrix was used to find accuracy and precision in predicting the classes and their results are also appropriate. The overall results indicate that the MBC was effective in predicating the onset and end of drought events and can utilized for monitoring and management of short-term drought risk.

2000년 이후 빈번하게 발생하고 있는 봄 가뭄을 모니터링하기 위한 방법의 하나로 위성영상을 이용하여 제작한 식생지수의 변화를 통해 가뭄을 간접적으로 추정하는 연구가 수행되고 있다. 식생지수 기반의 가뭄 모니터링은 가뭄의 변화를 시 공간적으로 효과적으로 파악할 수 있다는 장점을 갖고 있으며 MODIS 영상과 같이 주기 해상도가 뛰어난 저해상도 위성영상의 활용 기반이 조성됨에 따라 가뭄모니터링을 위한 식생지수의 활용성은 더욱 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 식생지수를 이용한 가뭄평가는 식생 활력에 영향을 주는 요소를 기상학적 요인으로 제한하고 있으나 실제 식생 스트레스를 초래하는 직 간접적인 원인은 매우 다양하며 이로 인해 식생지수를 이용한 가뭄평가는 다수의 불확실성이 내포되어 있다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 식생지수를 이용한 가뭄분석의 객관성을 확보하고 이를 활용한 가뭄모니터링 체계를 구축하기 위해서는 가뭄관리를 위해 활용되고 있는 대표적인 가뭄분석 도구와의 비교가 선행되어야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 대표적인 식생지수인 NDVI를 기상학적 가뭄지수인 PDSI, SPI와 비교하고 이들의 상관성을 제시함으로써 가뭄평가를 위한 식생지수의 활용성을 제시하고자 하였다. 연구결과 다중시기를 대상으로 NDVI와 지속기간 6개월의 SPI변화패턴은 유사하게 나타났으며 NDVI는 식생피복을 갖는 내륙지역에서 가뭄지수와 가장 높은 상관성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

The drought has occurred from the past, and has caused a lot of damage. It is important to analyze the past droughts and predict them in the future. In this study, the temperature and precipitation of the past and the future from climate change RCP 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios were analyzed for Seosan and Boryeong in the western region of Chungnam Province, which is considered as a drought-prone area on the Korean Peninsula. Comparing Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Effective Drought Index (EDI) based on the past droughts, EDI was verified to be more suitable for the drought assessment. According to RCP 4.5, the frequency and intensity of droughts in the early future (2021~2060) were expected to increase and to be stronger. Particularly, severe droughts were predicted for a long time from 2022 to 2026, and from 2032 to 2039. Droughts were expected to decrease in the late future (2061~2100). From RCP 8.5, drought occurrences were predicted to increase, but the intensity of the droughts were expected to decrease in the future. As a result of evaluation of the frequencies of droughts by seasons, the region would be most affected by fall drought in the early future and by spring drought in the late future according to RCP 4.5. In the case of RCP 8.5, the seasonal effects were not clearly distinguished. These results suggest that droughts in the future do not have any tendency, but continue to occurr as in the past. Therefore, the measures and efforts to secure water resources and reinforcement of water supply facilities should be prepared to cope with droughts.

Although the drought impacts are comparably not catastrophic, the results from the drought are fatal in various social and economical aspects. Different from other natural hazards including floods, drought advances slowly and spreads widely, so that the preparedness is quite important and effective to mitigate the impacts from drought. Soil moisture depletion directly resulted from rainfall shortage is highly related with drought, especially for crops and vegetations, therefore a drought can be evaluated using soil moisture conditions. In this study, SMI (Soil Moisture Index) was developed to measure a drought condition using soil moisture model and frequency analysis for return periods. Runs theory was applied to quantify the soil moisture depletions for the drought condition in terms of severity, magnitude and duration. In 1994, 1995, 2000, and 2001, Korea had experienced several severe droughts, so the SMI developed was applied to evaluate applicability in the mid-range hydrologic unit watershed scale. From the results, SMI demonstrated the drought conditions with a quite sensitive manner and can be used as an indicator to measure a drought condition.

Drought is a reoccurring worldwide natural hazard that affects not only food production but also economics, health, and infrastructure. Drought monitoring is usually performed with precipitation-based indices without consideration of the actual state and amount of the land surface properties. A drought index based on the actual evapotranspiration can overcome these shortcomings. The severity of a drought can be quantified by making a spatial map. The procedure for estimating actual evapotranspiration is costly and complicated, and requires land surface information. The possibility of utilizing drone-driven remotely sensed data for actual evapotranspiration estimation was analyzed in this study. A drone collected data was used to calculate the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and soil-adjusted vegetation index (SAVI). The spatial resolution was 10 m with a grid of $404{\times}395$. The collected data were applied and parameterized to an actual evapotranspiration estimation. The result shows that drone-based data is useful for estimating actual evapotranspiration and the corresponding drought indices.

최근 기후변화에 따른 기상이변으로 전 세계적으로 가뭄피해가 증가하고 있다. 기존의 가뭄지수들은 자연현상만을 분석하여 가뭄의 심화정도를 나타내고 있다. 하지만 도시개발에 따른 도시화가 진행됨에 따라 인문 사회적 요소들이 서로 얽혀서 결합되어 단순히 자연현상만으로는 가뭄재해를 표현하기 어려워지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 복원력개념을 고려한 사회경제적 가뭄지수를 개발하고자 하였다. 복원력개념을 도입하기 위해서 가뭄위험지수, 가뭄대응능력 지수, 가뭄취약성 지수를 산정하였다. 가뭄위험지수로는 SDI(Streamflow Drought Index)를 사용하였으며, 사회 경제적 가뭄을 판단하기 위해서 적합 가뭄지속기간을 고려하였다. 대응능력 지표로는 인문, 사회적 요소와 생활, 농업, 공업용수 공급량, 지하수 함양량을 고려하였다. 취약성 지표로는 인문 사회적 요소와 생활, 농업용수 부족량, 기상요소를 고려하였다. 각 요소의 가중치는 AHP분석을 통해 산정하였다. 산정된 SDI(Streamflow Drought Index), 가뭄대응능력지수, 가뭄취약성지수를 표준화하여 잠재가뭄피해지수 PDDI(Potential Drought Damage Index)를 산정하였으며, 실제 가뭄 기간을 참고하여 등급화를 실시하였다. 그 후, 단순강우를 고려한 SPI(Standardized Precipitation Index)와 강우와 증발산량을을 고려한 RDI(Recommaissamce Drought Index)와의 비교를 통하여 복원력 개념을 고려한 잠재가뭄피해지수의 필요성을 확인하였다.

Background: The phenomenon of tree dieback in forest ecosystems around the world, which is known to be associated with high temperatures that occur simultaneously with drought, has received much attention. Korea is experiencing a rapid rise in temperature relative to other regions. Particularly in the growth of evergreen conifers, temperature increases in winter and spring can have great influence. In recent years, there have been reports of group dieback of Pinus densiflora trees in Korea, and many studies are being conducted to identify the causes. However, research on techniques to diagnose and monitor drought stress in forest ecosystems on local and regional scales has been lacking. Results: In this study, we developed and evaluated an index to identify drought and high-temperature vulnerability in Pinus densiflora forests. We found the Drought Stress Index (DSI) that we developed to be effective in generally assessing the drought-reactive physiology of trees. During 2001-2016, in Korea, we refined the index and produced DSI data from a 1 × 1-km unit grid spanning the entire country. We found that the DSI data correlated with the event data of Pinus densiflora mass dieback compiled in this study. The average DSI value at times of occurrence of Pinus densiflora group dieback was 0.6, which was notably higher than during times of nonoccurrence. Conclusions: Our combination of the Standard Precipitation Index and growing degree days evolved and short- and long-term effects into a new index by which we found meaningful results using dieback event data. Topographical and biological factors and climate data should be considered to improve the DSI. This study serves as the first step in developing an even more robust index to monitor the vulnerability of forest ecosystems in Korea.
