지금까지 많은 연구를 통하여 제안된 다양한 가뭄지수들은 사전에 정의된 등급을 통하여 가뭄을 평가하기 때문에 가뭄현상에 내재된 불확실성을 고려하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 월 유출량 자료에 내재되어 있는 불확실성을 고려하기 위해 은닉 마코프 모형(HMM) 기반의 가뭄지수(HMDI)를 제안하고, 이를 이용하여 수문학적 가뭄에 대한 확률론적 평가를 수행하였다. WAMIS에서 제공하는 한강유역의 평창강과 남한강상류의 월평균 유출량 자료(1966~2009)를 이용하여 3, 6, 12개월씩 누적시킨 후, HMM에 적용하여 은닉상태의 사후확률을 계산하였다. 연구방법의 검증을 위해 HMM을 이용하여 추정된 각 은닉상태 별 사후확률(HMDI)과 기준값에 의해 가뭄을 평가하는 방법 중 하나인 표준유출지수(SSI)와 비교를 하였다. 분석결과, 기존 가뭄지수(SSI)를 사용하였을 때는 하나의 지수로 특정 시점에서의 가뭄 상태를 판단하였지만, HMDI는 자료에내재된 불확실성을 이용하여 가뭄의 상태를 분류하였고, 이는 특정 시점에서 가뭄 상태들이 나타날 확률로 표현되었다. 또한, 실제 가뭄사례와의 비교를 통해서 HMDI가 SSI에 비하여 가뭄에 대한 재현능력이 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

최근의 기후변화로 인한 강우패턴의 변화는 우리나라에서 가뭄의 발생확률을 증가시키고 있다. 가뭄의 발생은 다른 자연재해와는 달리 지속기간이 길고, 피해지역이 광범위하여, 사회경제적으로 겪는 피해가 다른 자연재해보다 크다. 현재 가뭄의 심도를 평가하기 위해서 기후학적 인자를 우선적으로 고려하는 가뭄지수가 주로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기후학적 인자를 고려한 가뭄지수와 재해에 취약한 사회경제적 요소를 고려하여 가뭄위험지도를 작성함으로써 좀 더 현실적인 가뭄평가 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 경상도 지역에 대한 가뭄의 공간적인 위험도 평가를 수행하기 위해, 가뭄위험도를 노출성 지수와 취약성 지수의 결합으로 정의하여 분석하였다. 가뭄의 노출성 지수는 가뭄지수를 이용하여 GIS를 기반으로 공간적 범위에 분포시켰으며, 가뭄의 취약성 지수는 사회경제적인 5가지 인자를 이용하여 산정하고, 표준화를 통하여 공간적 범위에 분포시켰다. 그 결과 대상지역인 경상도 내 시군구 지역별 가뭄에 대한 위험도의 차이를 비교할 수 있었으며, 같은 강도의 가뭄이 발생하여도 경상도 내 행정구역별 지역적 특성에 따라 가뭄위험도를 평가할 수 있었다.

North Korea has frequently suffered from extreme agricultural crop droughts, which have led to food shortages, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The increasing frequency of extreme droughts, due to global warming and climate change, has increased the importance of enhancing the national capacity for drought management. Historically, a meteorological drought index based on data collected from weather stations has been widely used. But it has limitations in terms of the distribution of weather stations and the spatial pattern of drought impacts. Satellite-based data can be obtained with the same accuracy and at regular intervals, and is useful for long-term change analysis and environmental monitoring and wide area access in time and space. The Evaporative Stress Index (ESI), a satellite-based drought index using the ratio of potential and actual evaporation, is being used to detect drought response as a index of the droughts occurring rapidly over short periods of time. It is more accurate and provides faster analysis of drought conditions compared to the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), and the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI). In this study, we analyze drought events during 2015-2017 in North Korea using the ESI satellite-based drought index to determine drought response by comparing with it with the SPI and SPEI drought indices.

가뭄은 태풍이나 집중호우 등 다른 자연재해와는 달리 발생시점이 명확하지 않으며, 가뭄발생 시 피해지역이 광범위하기 때문에 사회 경제적으로 겪는 피해가 매우 크다. 따라서 미래에 발생할 수 있는 가뭄에 대한 평가 및 이에 대한 대응방안의 마련이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기후학적 인자와 사회경제적인 인자에 대한 여러 가지 통계자료를 이용하여 우리나라 가뭄 위험도를 평가하였다. 가뭄의 발생확률을 바탕으로 가뭄 노출성 지수(DHI)와 가뭄의 사회경제적인 영향을 반영하는 가뭄 취약성 지수(DVI)를 개발하고, 두 인자간의 상호관계를 분석하여, 최종적으로 가뭄 위험도 지수(DRI)를 개발하였다. 행정구역별로 산정된 DRI를 바탕으로 우리나라의 지역적 가뭄 위험도를 평가할 수 있었으며, 가뭄 위험도가 가장 높은 지역은 농업 밀집지역인 전라도로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제시한 가뭄 위험도 지도는 지역적 특성을 반영하여 가뭄대책을 수립할 수 있는 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Drought and flooding have historically coexisted in Korea, occurring at different times and with varying cycles and trends. The drought indicators measured were (PDSI), (SPI), and (SPEI) in order to statistically analyze the annual or periodic drought occurrence and objectively evaluate statistical characteristics such as the periodicity, tendency, and frequency of occurrence of droughts in the Doam watershed. To compute potential evapotranspiration (PET), both Thornthwaite (Thor) and Penman-Monteith (PM) parameterizations were considered, and the differences between the two PET estimators were analyzed. Hence, SPIs 3 and SPIs 6 revealed a tendency to worsen drought in the spring and winter and a tendency to alleviate drought in the summer in the study area. The seasonal variability trend did not occur in the SPIs 12 and PDSI, as it did in the drought index over a short period. As a result of the drought trend study, the drought from winter to spring gets more severe, in addition to the duration of the drought, although the periodicity of the recurrence of the drought ranged from 3 years to 6 years at the longest, indicating that SPIs 3 showed a brief time of around 1 year. SPIs 6 and SPIs 12 had a term of 4 to 6 years, and PDSI had a period of roughly 6 years. Based on the indicators of the PDSI, SPI, and SPEI, the drought severity increases under climate change conditions with the decrease in precipitation and increased water demand as a consequence of the temperature increase. Therefore, our findings show that national and practical measures are needed for both winter and spring droughts, which happen every year, as well as large-scale and extreme droughts, which happen every six years.

This study is to evaluate the drought-related bigdata characteristics published from South Korean by developing crawler. The 5 years (2013 ~ 2017) drought-related posted articles were collected from Korean internet search engine 'NAVER' which contains 13 main and 81 local daily newspapers. During the 5 years period, total 40,219 news articles including 'drought' word were found using crawler. To filter the homonyms liken drought to soccer goal drought in sports, money drought economics, and policy drought in politics often used in South Korea, the quality control was processed and 47.8 % articles were filtered. After, the 20,999 (52.2 %) drought news articles of this study were classified into four categories of water deficit (WD), water security and support (WSS), economic damage and impact (EDI), and environmental and sanitation impact (ESI) with 27, 15, 13, and 18 drought-related keywords in each category. The WD, WSS, EDI, and ESI occupied 41.4 %, 34.5 %, 14.8 %, and 9.3 % respectively. The drought articles were mostly posted in June 2015 and June 2017 with 22.7 % (15,097) and 15.9 % (10,619) respectively. The drought news articles were spatiotemporally compared with SPI (Standardized Precipitation Index) and RDI (Reservoir Drought Index) were calculated. They were classified into administration boundaries of 8 main cities and 9 provinces in South Korea because the drought response works based on local government unit. The space-time clustering between news articles (WD, WSS, EDI, and ESI) and indices (SPI and RDI) were tried how much they have correlation each other. The spatiotemporal clusters detection was applied using SaTScan software (Kulldorff, 2015). The retrospective and prospective cluster analyses were conducted for past and present time to understand how much they are intensive in clusters. The news articles of WD, WSS and EDI had strong clusters in provinces, and ESI in cities.

The objective of this study is to develop and evaluate the system to produce the real-time ensemble drought prediction data. Ensemble drought prediction consists of 3 processes (meteorological outlook using the multi-initial conditions, hydrological analysis and drought index calculation) therefore, more processing time and data is required than that of single member. For ensemble drought prediction, data process time is optimized and hardware of existing system is upgraded. Ensemble drought data is estimated for year 2012 and to evaluate the accuracy of drought prediction data by using ROC (Relative Operating Characteristics) analysis. We obtained 5 ensembles as optimal number and predicted drought condition for every tenth day i.e. 5th, 15th and 25th of each month. The drought indices used are SPI (Standard Precipitation Index), SRI (Standard Runoff Index), SSI (Standard Soil moisture Index). Drought conditions were determined based on results obtained for each ensemble member. Overall the results showed higher accuracy using ensemble members as compared to single. The ROC score of SRI and SSI showed significant improvement in drought period however SPI was higher in the demise period. The proposed ensemble drought prediction system can be contributed to drought forecasting techniques in Korea.

Different vegetation indices from satellite images have been used for monitoring drought damages, and this study aimed to develop a drought index using NOAA/AVHRR NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and to analyze the temporal and spatial distribution of spring drought severity in North Korea from 1998 to 2001. A new drought index, DevNDVI(Deviation of NDVI), was defined as the difference between a monthly NDVI and average monthly NDVI at the same cover area, and the DevNDVI images at all years except for 2001 demonstrated the drought-damaged areas referred from various domestic and foreign publications. The vegetation of 2001 showed high vitality despite the least amount of rainfall among the target years, and the reason was investigated that higher temperature above normal average would shift the growing stages of plants ahead. Therefore, complementary methods like plant growth models or ground survey data should be adopted in order to evaluate drought-induced plant stress using satellite-based NDVI and to make up far the distortion induced by other environments than lack of precipitation.

This study analyzed the variability of drought risk based on trend analysis of dry-seasonal dam inflow located in upper river basins. To this, we used areal averaged precipitation and dam inflow of three upper river dams such as Soyang dam, Chungju dam, and Andong dam. We employed Mann-Kendall trend analysis and change point detection method to identify the significant trends and changing point in time series. Our results showed that significant decreasing trends (95% confidence interval) in dry-seasonal runoff rates (= dam inflow/precipitation) in three-dam basins. We investigated potential causes of decreasing runoff rates trends using changes in potential evapotranspiration (PET) and precipitation indices. However, there were no clear relation among changes in runoff rates, PET, and precipitation indices. Runoff rate reduction in the three dams may increase the risk of dam operational management and long-term water resource planning. Therefore, it will be necessary to perform a multilateral analysis to better understand decreasing runoff rates.

Spring drought forecasting in South Korea is essential due to the sknewness of rainfall which could lead to water shortage especially in spring when managed without prediction. Therefore, drought forecasting over South Korea was performed in the current study by thoroughly searching appropriate predictors from the lagged global climate variable, mean sea level pressure(MSLP), specifically in winter season for forecasting time lag. The target predictand defined as accumulated spring precipitation(ASP) was driven by the median of 93 weather stations in South Korea. Then, it was found that a number of points of the MSLP data were significantly cross-correlated with the ASP, and the points with high correlation were regionally grouped. The grouped variables with three regions: the Arctic Ocean (R1), South Pacific (R2), and South Africa (R3) were determined. The generalized linear model(GLM) was further applied for skewed marginal distribution in drought prediction. It was shown that the applied GLM presents reasonable performance in forecasting ASP. The results concluded that the presented regionalization of the climate variable, MSLP can be a good alternative in forecasting spring drought.
