In order to infer regional flood frequency for ungauged watersheds, index flood method was applied for this study. To pursuit this given purpose, annual peak flood data for 22 watersheds located at the upstream of the Chungju Dam watershed were obtained from the spatial extension technique. The regionalization of mean annual flood was performed from extended flood data at 22 points. Based on the theory that flood discharge and watershed size follows the power law the regionalization generated the empirical relationship. These analyses were executed for the full size of the Chungju Dam watershed as one group and three different mid-size watersheds groups. From the results, the relationship between mean annual flood and watershed sizes follow the power law. We demonstrated that it is appropriate to use the relationship between specific flood discharges from the upper and lower watersheds in terms of estimating the floods for the ungaged watersheds. Therefore, not only the procedure of regional frequency analysis but also regionalizaion analaysis using finer discretization of the regions interest with respect to the regional frequency analyisis for the ungauged watersheds is important.

The objective of this study is a comparison with simulation results of flood inundation by the construction techniques of river topography. For construction of river topography, the data used in this study are 1:5,000 topographic DEM, ASTER DEM and SRTM DEM provided by WMS. Also HEC-RAS and HEC-GeoRAS are applied to analyze of inundation depth and area. Flood inundations are simulated by 3 techniques in return periods and compared with the results. The results of this study are as follows; (1) Comparative analysis of the results shows that they have only a little difference in construction techniques of river topography at midsized catchment. (2) Flood inundations by ASTER DEM is to estimate larger than the other techniques in flood area (3) In case of SRTM DEM, the application can be expected to make use in the fields because of proper results in flood inundation analysis.

Current domestic research is to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiencies of flood prevention measures through one-dimensional numerical analysis and this study's object is to help water managers to make the efficient decisions by applying the two-dimensional urban run off model XP-SWMM model in the flooded area and comparing with the flood prevention measures. Statistics were analyzed, based on the data collected from Cheongju Weather Service from 1967 to 2011 for 45 years. 50 years Flood frequency simulations of water flow capacity analysis of the target area for flooded areas $539,548m^2$, inundation depth 1.0 m, was analyzed by inundation time of 48 minutes. When comparing with the constructions of bypass road and underground storage facilities to increase the water flow capacity of A1 small drainage areas as flood protection, if you install a batching target underground detention basin with a capacity of $13,500m^3$, it is expected that the flood by rainfall with frequency of 50 years will be resolved completely. In preparation for extreme weather in the future flood mitigation measures, underground storage tank installation is considered a better efficient way.

An irregular cell-based numerical model was developed to analyze underground space flooding. In this model, the flow characteristics in underground space were computed by link-node system. Also, the model can simulate the underground flood flow related to the influence of stairs and wall-structures. Empirical discharge formula were introduced to analyze weir-type flow for shopping mall, and channel-type flow for subway railroad respectively. The simulated results matched in reasonable range compared with the observed depth. The dual-drainage inundation analysis model and the underground space flood analysis model were integrated using visual basic application of ArcGIS system. The developed model can help the decision support system of flood control authority for redesigning and constructing flood prevention structures and making the potential inundation zone, and establishing flood-mitigation measures.

Due to climate change and difficulty in construction of large dam, it is on the increase to use small hydraulic facilities such as washland for the flood control purpose. Since there can be many potential locations for washland in a basin, it is important for determination of optimal location to calculate flood reduction effect of washlands substantially and exactly. In this study, a new scheme to increase flood reduction effect of washlands is suggested. Suggested scheme uses sensitivity analysis of flood reduction effect depending on washland characteristics such as storage volume, spillway elevation and spillway width. The characteristics of the washland is determined by results of sensitivity analysis to maximize flood reduction effect at basin outlet and downstream of a washland. The methodology is applied to Anseong river basin to show its applicability and applied result is compared with those of another studies.

In this study(II), The developed rainfall forecast model was applied to the NakDong River Basin for the heavy rainfall on 6th to 16th of August in 2002. The results demonstrated that the rainfall forecasts of 3 hours lead time showed good agreement with observed data. The inundation aspect of simulation depends on actual levee failure in the same basin. Rainfall forecasts were used for flood amount computation in the target watershed. Also the flood amount in the target watershed was used on boundary condition for flood inundation simulation in a protected lowland and a river. The results of simulation are consistent with actuality inundation traces and flood level data of the target watershed. This study provides practical applicability of satellite data in rainfall forecast of extreme events such as heavy rainfall or typhoon. Also this study presented an advanced integrated model of rainfall, runoff, and inundation analysis which can be applicable for flood disaster prevention and mitigation.

We study an degree of alternativeness and a survivability of alternate routing algorithm in mobile ad-hoc tactical communication networks. The common channel signaling scheme is used and flood search routing algorithm is used for analysis. We also study a connectivity performance for flood search routing, restricted flooding and hybrid routing. From the results we expect low blocking probabilities with alternate routing and the conventional flood search routing shows better connectivity performance which results in high survivability.

This study analyzes the flood inundation in low agricultural area caused by rainfall during typhoon periods and how flood inundation areas should be affected. GIS techniques, HEC-HMS and HEC-GeoHMS were used for flood runoff, HEC-RAS was applied in water surface elevation analysis at each cross-section. RMA2, SED2D were applied for runoff characteristics of inundation areas and river bed change and distribution of sediment. As a result, velocity distribution was analyzed 2.6 m/s-3.4 m/s in flood inundation by water level increase. In the case of bed elevation change, most sediments were deposited to the parts that adjoin bank.

This study was conducted to estimate the design flood by the determination of best fitting order of LH-moments of the annual maximum series at six and nine watersheds in Korea and Australia, respectively. Adequacy for flood flow data was confirmed by the tests of independence, homogeneity, and outliers. Gumbel (GUM), Generalized Extreme Value (GEV), Generalized Pareto (GPA), and Generalized Logistic (GLO) distributions were applied to get the best fitting frequency distribution for flood flow data. Theoretical bases of L, L1, L2, L3 and L4-moments were derived to estimate the parameters of 4 distributions. L, L1, L2, L3 and L4-moment ratio diagrams (LH-moments ratio diagram) were developed in this study. GEV distribution for the flood flow data of the applied watersheds was confirmed as the best one among others by the LH-moments ratio diagram and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Best fitting order of LH-moments will be derived by the confidence analysis of estimated design flood in the second report of this study.

During a flood season, Bo region could be easily exposed to flood due to increase of ground water level and the water drain difficulty even the water amount of Bo can be managed. GFI for the flood risk is measured by mean depth to water during a dry season and minimum depth to water and tangent degree during a flood season. In this paper, a forecasting model of the target variable, GFI and predictors as differences of height between ground water and Bo water, distances from water resource, and soil characteristics are obtained for the dry season of 2012 and the flood season of 2012 with empirical data of Gangjungbo and Hamanbo. Obtained forecasting model would be used for keep the value of GFI below the maximum allowance for no flooding during flooding seasons with controlling the values of significant predictors.
