동아시아 지역은 몬순 영향으로 계절적인 수자원 변동성이 매우 크고 홍수 및 가뭄과 같은 수재해 피해가 빈번히 발생하고 추세이다. 본 연구에서는 동아시아의 수자원 관리에 활용하기 위해 수문 모형 중 하나인 WRF-Hydro (Weather Research and Forecast and Model Hydrological modeling extension package) 모형을 구축하였다. WRF-Hydro 모형은 미국 NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research)에서 개발된 커뮤니티형 고해상도 예측모델로 미국 등에서 활발히 사용되고 있으나, 동아시아 지역에 적용된 연구는 없다. 따라서 모형의 동아시아 적용 가능성에 대한 불확실성이 높다. 본 연구에서는 WRF-Hydro 모형을 0.25°의 공간해상도로 동아시아 대상으로 구축하였고, 기상 및 지면 특성과 유역자료를 활용한 머신러닝 방법으로 파라미터 보정을 시행하여 2006년부터 2015년까지 구동하였다. 머신러닝을 통해 지역특성이 고려된 WRF-Hydro 모형은 표면유출, 보수깊이, 표면 거칠기, 표면 기울기와 같은 매개변수를 보정하였다. 모형 평가를 위해 GRDC (Global Runoff Database Center (GRDC), GLDAS (Global Land Data Assimilation System), ESA-CCI (European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative), MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer)에서 제공하는 관측 유출량, 토양수분, 증발산량을 비교, 분석하여 동아시아 적용 적절성에 대해 검토하였다.

Most hydrologic data are obtained by ground observations. New observation methods are needed for some regions to overcome difficulties in accessibility and durability of long-term observation. In 2002, NASA launched twin satellites named GRACE which were designed to measure the gravitational field of the earth. Using the GRACE monthly gravity level-2 data, we calculated terrestrial water storage change (TWSC) of the Korean peninsula in various spatial smoothing radii (0 km, 300 km, 500 km). For the validation of GRACE-based TWSC, we compared it with land-based TWSC which was obtained using the ground observation data: precipitation and evaporation from WAMIS, and runoff from GLDAS. According to the mean square-error test, GRACE-based TWSC best fits the land-based one at 500 km smoothing radius. The variation of the terrestrial water storage in the Korean peninsula turned out to be 0.986 cm/month, which means that appropriate measures should be prepared for sustainable water resources management.

Soil moisture is essential information for meteorological and hydrological analyses. To date, many efforts have been made to achieve the two goals for soil moisture data, i.e., the improvement of accuracy and resolution, which is very challenging. We presented an ensemble downscaling method for quality improvement of gridded soil moisture data in terms of the accuracy and the spatial resolution by the integration of BMA (Bayesian model averaging) and ATPRK (area-to-point regression kriging). In the experiments, the BMA ensemble showed a 22% better accuracy than the data sets from ESA CCI (European Space Agency-Climate Change Initiative), ERA5 (ECMWF Reanalysis 5), and GLDAS (Global Land Data Assimilation System) in terms of RMSE (root mean square error). Also, the ATPRK downscaling could enhance the spatial resolution from 0.25° to 0.05° while preserving the improved accuracy and the spatial pattern of the BMA ensemble, without under- or over-estimation. The quality-improved data sets can contribute to a variety of local and regional applications related to soil moisture, such as agriculture, forest, hydrology, and meteorology. Because the ensemble downscaling method can be applied to the other land surface variables such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, and evapotranspiration, it can be a viable option to complement the accuracy and the spatial resolution of satellite images and numerical models.
