Agrometeorological advisories for farms and orchards are issued when daily weather exceeds a predefined range of the local reference climate, which is a long-term average of daily weather for the location. The reference climate at local scales is prepared by various simplification methods, resulting in uncertainty in the agrometeorological advisories. We restored daily weather data for the 1981-2010 period and analyzed the differences in prediction results of weather risk by comparing with the temporal and spatial simplified normal climate values. For this purpose, we selected the agricultural drought index (ADI) among various disaster related indices because ADI requires many kinds of weather data to calculate it. Ten rural counties within the Seomjin River Basin were selected for this study. The normal value of 'temporal simplification' was calculated by using the daily average value for 30 years (1981-2010). The normal value of 'spatial simplification' is the zonal average of the temporally simplified normal values falling within a standard watershed. For residual moisture index, temporal simplification normal values were overestimated, whereas spatial simplification normal values were underestimated in comparison with non-simplified normal values. The ADI's calculated from January to July 2017 showed a significant deviation in terms of the extent of drought depending on the normal values used. Through this study, we confirmed that the result of weather risk calculation using normal climatic values from 'simplified' methods can affect reliability of the agrometeorological advisories.

수문순환 과정은 기상현상과 밀접한 관련을 가지고 서로 연관되어 있다. 이러한 연관성을 규명하여 수자원관리에 위험도를 감소시키려는 노력은 많은 분야에서 이루어지고 있으며, 주요 연구 주제가 되고 있다. 이러한 기상현상 중에서 가뭄은 여러 가지 요소가 복합되어 발생되는 것으로 알려지고 있으나 이를 설명하기에는 여전히 부족한 면이 존재한다. 가뭄을 발생시키는 몇 가지 가능한 원인으로는 E1 Nino-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)현상으로 잘 알려져 있는 비정상적인 해수면 온도의 변화나 기후 시스템의 비선형적 거동을 들 수 있다. 특히, 기후 시스템은 대개 경년 변화(inter-annual variability) 및 10년 이상의 주기(decadal variability) 특성을 가지고 있으며 가뭄 또한 경년변화의 주기 특성을 나타내고 있는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 이러한 관점에서 수문시계열을 특정 주파수(frequency)에서 고립시킨 후, 분석이 가능한 분해방법(decomposition method)을 통해 보다 해석적으로 접근하는 것이 가능하다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 Wavelet Transform분석을 도입하였으며 통계적으로 유의한 성분을 시계열로부터 추출하여 가뭄과 기상인자와의 변동성 분석을 실시하였다.

More severe and frequent flood and drought have increased the attentions on the river management. In particular, baseflow is an important element among many streamflow characteristics because streamflow is mainly consisted of direct runoff and baseflow. In this regard, this study attempted to analyze the relationship between streamflow variability and baseflow contributions on Nakdong river basin. For this, two Streamflow Variability Indices (SVI) were used: Coefficient of Variation (CV) and Coefficient of Flow Regime (CFR). Furthermore, baselow separation was individually conducted by three methods (PART, WHAT and BFLOW), and based on this, Baseflow Index (BFI) was calculated. Also, we used the daily streamflow data retrieved from 27 gauge stations in Nakdong river basin for baseflow separation. The results showed that BFI calculated by three models ranges from 0.14 to 0.90 for 27 gauge stations. For SVI, BFI has much higher correlation with CV than with CFR. Also, the inversely proportional relationship between BFI and CV showed that higher baseflow contribution, less streamflow variability.

In this study, a real-time storage level and capacity monitoring and forecasting system for Yongdam Dam watershed was developed using high resolution satellite image. The drought indices such as Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) from satellite data were used for storage level monitoring in case of drought. Moreover, to predict storage volume we used a statistical method based on Principle Component Analysis (PCA) of Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA). According to this study, correlation coefficient between storage level and SPI (3) was highly calculated with CC=0.78, and the monitoring and predictability of storage level was diagnosed using the drought index calculated from satellite data. As a result of analysis of principal component analysis by SSA, correlation between SPI (3) and each Reconstructed Components (RCs) data were highly correlated with CC=0.87 to 0.99. And also, the correlations of RC data with Normalized Water Surface Level (N-W.S.L.) were confirmed that has highly correlated with CC=0.83 to 0.97. In terms of high resolution satellite image we developed a water detection algorithm by applying an exponential method to monitor the change of storage level by using Multi-Spectral Instrument (MSI) sensor of Sentinel-2 satellite. The materials of satellite image for water surface area detection in Yongdam dam watershed was considered from 2016 to 2018, respectively. Based on this, we proposed the possibility of real-time drought monitoring system using high resolution water surface area detection by Sentinel-2 satellite image. The results of this study can be applied to estimate of the reservoir volume calculated from various satellite observations, which can be used for monitoring and estimating hydrological droughts in an unmeasured area.

The Noah 3.3 Land Surface Model (LSM) was used to estimate the global soil moisture in this study and these soil moisture datasets were assessed against satellite-based and reanalysis soil moisture products. The Noah 3.3 LSM simulated soil moistures in four soil layers and root-zone soil moistures defined as a depth-weighted average in the first three soil layers (i.e., up to 1.0 m deep). The Noah LSM soil moisture products were then compared with a satellite-based soil moisture dataset (European Space Agency Climate Change Initiatives (ESA CCI) SM v04.4) and reanalysis soil moisture datasets (ERA-interim). In addition, the five major basins (Yangtze, Mekong, Mississippi, Murray-Darling, Amazon) were selected for the assesment with the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE)-based Total Water Storage Anomaly (TWSA) and TWS Change (TWSC). The results revealed that high anomaly correlations were found in most of the Asia-Pacific regions including East Asia, South Asia, Australia, and Noth and South America. While the anomaly correlations in the Murray-Darling basin were somewhat low, relatively higher anomaly correlations in the other basins were found. It is concluded that this study can be useful for the development of soil moisture based drought indices and subsequently can be helpful to reduce damages from drought by timely providing an efficacious strategy.

가뭄은 짧게는 한 계절에서 1년, 길게는 10년 이상 지속되는 등 시간 규모가 다양하며, 그 시작과 끝을 명확하게 정의하기 힘든 특성이 있다. 이와 같이 나타나는 가뭄의 장기적 발생 특성으로 인해 지역의 가뭄 특성을 정확하게 분석하기 위해서는 장기간의 자료를 필요로 한다. 그러나 우리나라의 경우 근대적인 관측은 1900년대 초반에 시작되었으며, 현재 운영 중인 대부분의 관측 시설은 1970년대부터 이용 가능한 자료가 존재하는 상황이다. 미국의 경우에도 1800년대 후반부터 관측된 자료를 이용하여 가뭄 및 홍수 분석을 수행하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 점을 보완하여 보다 장기간의 가뭄 특성 관련 정보를 확보하기 위한 노력이 많은 연구자들을 통해 지속되어 왔다. 강수량이나 유출량 등 근대 관측 이후 이용이 가능한 자료를 통해서도 가뭄과 관련된 유용한 정보를 획득할 수 있으나 보다 장기간의 정보를 확보하기 위해 나이테 등 다양한 기후 지표를 이용한 연구가 수행되고 있다. 특히 과거 가뭄 특성에 대한 복원을 위해 나이테자료를 이용하는 연구는 미국을 중심으로 매우 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 또한 몽골이나 티베트, 중국 등과 같이 근대 기상 관측 자료가 매우 부족한 지역을 대상으로 가뭄 특성을 분석하기 위해 해당 지역에서 확보된 나이테 자료를 이용하는 연구가 매우 활발하다. 그러나 우리나라에서는 나이테자료와 가뭄 특성 간 관계를 검토하고 나이테자료에 근거하여 과거 가뭄 특성을 복원하려는 노력이 거의 전무한 실정이라 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 근대 관측 이전에 대한 가뭄 특성을 복원함에 있어 나이테자료의 활용가능성을 파악하기 위해 가뭄 특성을 나타내는 가뭄지수와 나이테자료의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 우리나라 및 주변 국가에서 확보된 나이테자료를 이용하였으며, PDSI, SPI 등 기존 가뭄지수를 분석에 함께 활용하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 연구결과는 향후 나이테자료를 기반으로 근대 관측 이전에 대한 가뭄 특성을 복원하는데 있어 유용한 기반 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 나이테자료 등 기후지표를 이용한 가뭄 관련 연구의 기초 정보로 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

To get the informations of burley leaf, the chemical constituents, quality indices, leaf color and the effects of climatic factors on the physicochemical properties of leaf produced from 2000 to 2004 crop years at 6 growing areas were analysed. The average leaf chemical contents for 5 years were as follows ; nicotine 2.87%, total nitrogen 4.55%, and chlorine 0.57%. The nicotine content was low while total nitrogen was slightly high as compared with recommended contents(nicotine ; $3.0{\sim}3.5%$, total nitrogen; $4.0{\sim}4.5%$). The variations of physicochemical properties among crop years were high while those of growing areas were relatively low. The nicotine contents of upper leaves were positively correlated to the sunshine hours in June and negatively correlated to the rainfalls in June and July according to crop years. However the total nitrogen content of upper leaves were positively correlated to the rainfalls in July according to growing areas. The tan-tended colored leaves were produced under the high air temperature, drought and long sunshine weather condition while the buff-tended colored leaves were produced under the contra교 condition according to crop years. It is considered that the increasing of nicotine content of Lugs may be available to decrease the nitrogen number(nitrogen/nicotine ratio) of leaf tobacco.

To get the information of flue-cured leaf, the chemical constituents, quality indices, leaf color and the effects of climatic factors on the physicochemical properties of leaf produced from 2000 to 2004 crop years at 6 growing areas were analysed. The average leaf chemical contents for 5 years were as follows ; nicotine 2.22%, total sugar 28.0%, total nitrogen 1.89%, ether extracts 6.37% and chlorine 0.38%. The nicotine and total nitrogen contents were low while the total sugar were high as compared with KT&G recommended contents(nicotine ; $2.5{\sim}3.0%$, total nitrogen; $2.0{\sim}2.5%$, total sugar ; below 25.0%). The variations of physicochemical properties among crop years were high while those of growing areas relatively low. The nicotine content of leaf was negatively correlated to the rainfalls in June and July sugar content was negatively correlated to the average air temperature in June and July according to crop years. The orange colored leaves were produced under the drought and long sunshine weather condition while the lemon colored leaves were produced under the contrary condition according to crop years. Blending the different crop year's leaves in the proper way may be beneficial to produce of uniform and consistent cigarettes. It is considered that the increasing of nitrogen fertilizer or improving of nitrogen uptake may be available to increase the nicotine and nitrogen and decrease the total sugar contents of flue-cured leaf tobacco.

Enzyme electrophoresis was used to estimate genetic diversity and population genetic structure of Pseudobagrus fulvidraco in Korea. Nine of the 14 loci (64.3%) showed detectable polymorphism. Genetic diversity at the population and species levels were 0.286 and 0.277, respectively. Analysis of fixation indices, calculated for all polymorphic loci in each population, showed a substantial deficit of hetero-zygotes relative to Hardy-Weinberg expectations. This deficit is expected that it is due to a limited effective number of individuals per population. The average $G_{ST}$ for polymorphic loci was 0.064, indicating that most (93.6%) of the genetic diversity occurred within populations. The indirect estimate of gene flow based on mean $G_{ST}$ was 3.67. Given limited gene flow is expected to diverge genetically due to drift and reduced populations. Most populations in our study experience annual, severe demo-graphic bottlenecks due to drought and floods.

The objective of this study is to evaluate hydrologic impacts of climate change according to downscaling methods using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model at watershed scale. We used the APCC Integrated Modeling Solution (AIMS) for assessing various General Circulation Models (GCMs) and downscaling methods. AIMS provides three downscaling methods: 1) BCSA (Bias-Correction & Stochastic Analogue), 2) Simple Quantile Mapping (SQM), 3) SDQDM (Spatial Disaggregation and Quantile Delta Mapping). To assess future hydrologic responses of climate change, we adopted three GCMs: CESM1-BGC for flood, MIROC-ESM for drought, and HadGEM2-AO for Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) national standard scenario. Combined nine climate change scenarios were assessed by Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices (ETCCDI). SWAT model was established at the Mankyung watershed and the applicability assessment was completed by performing calibration and validation from 2008 to 2017. Historical reproducibility results from BCSA, SQM, SDQDM of three GCMs show different patterns on annual precipitation, maximum temperature, and four selected ETCCDI. BCSA and SQM showed high historical reproducibility compared with the observed data, however SDQDM was underestimated, possibly due to the uncertainty of future climate data. Future hydrologic responses presented greater variability in SQM and relatively less variability in BCSA and SDQDM. This study implies that reasonable selection of GCMs and downscaling methods considering research objective is important and necessary to minimize uncertainty of climate change scenarios.
