2017년 이상기후 보고서에 따르면, 지난해 장마기간(6월 24일~7월 29일) 동안 전국 평균 강수량은 291.7mm로 평년(356.1mm)의 81%에 그쳤고, 7월 전국 평균기온은 $26.4^{\circ}C$로 평년($24.5^{\circ}C$) 보다 $1.9^{\circ}C$ 높았으며, 폭염일수는 평년대비 1.5배 많았음을 보고했다. 이러한 극심한 기후변화는 유역환경에 영향을 미쳐 미래 수자원 계획과 관리에 어려움을 가중시킬 것으로 예상된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 금강유역($9,865km^2$)을 대상으로 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)모형과 RCP(Representative Concentration Pathway) 기후변화 시나리오를 이용하여 극한 기후변화 사상에 따른 수문 수질 거동을 평가하고자 하였다. 유역의 물수지 분석을 위해 금강 유역을 표준단위유역으로 구분 하였고, 기상자료와 다목적댐 2개(대청댐, 용담댐)과 다기능 보 3개(공주보, 백제보, 세종보)의 운영 자료와 국가 수자원관리 종합 정보 시스템(WAMIS)에서 관측 및 관리하고 있는 수문, 기상 자료를 수집하였다. SWAT 모형의 신뢰성 있는 수문 및 수질 보정을 위해 금강 소유역 내 위치하는 다목적 댐 2개 및 다기능 보 3개의 실측 방류랑을 이용하여 댐 운영모의를 하였으며, 댐 운영 자료와 수질 자료를 이용하여 모형의 검정 및 보정(2000~2015)을 실시하였다. 미래 극한 기후변화 사상을 모의하기 위해 기후변화 시나리오는 APCC의 26개 CMIP5 GCM 자료 중 RCP 8.5 시나리오를 활용했으며, 극한 기후 시나리오 선정을 위해 STARDEX에서 제시한 강우관련 극한지수를 이용했다. 선정된 홍수 및 가뭄 시나리오에 대해 Historical기간(1976~2005)과 미래기간(2006~2099)을 설정하여 미래 극한 기후변화 사상에 따른 금강유역의 수문 및 수질의 거동을 평가하였다.

The assessment of the current and future climate change-induced potential wind energy is an important issue in the planning and operations of wind farm. Here, the authors analyze spatiotemporal characteristics and variabilities of wind energy over Korean Peninsula in the near future (2006-2040) using Representative Concentration Pathway(RCP) scenarios data. In this study, National Institute of Meteorological Research (NIMR) regional climate model HadGEM3-RA based RCP 2.6 and 8.5 scenarios are analyzed. The comparison between ERA-interim and HadGEM3-RA during the period of 1981-2005 indicates that the historical simulation of HadGEM3-RA slightly overestimates (underestimates) the wind energy over the land (ocean). It also shows that interannual and intraseasonal variability of hindcast data is generally larger than those of reanalysis data. The investigation of RCP scenarios based future wind energy presents that future wind energy density will increase over the land and decrease over the ocean. The increase in the wind energy and its variability is particularly significant over the mountains and coastal areas, such as Jeju island in future global warming. More detailed analysis presents that the changes in synoptic conditions over East Asia in future decades can influence on the predicted wind energy abovementioned. It is also suggested that the uncertainty of the predicted future wind energy may increase because of the increase of interannual and intra-annual variability. In conclusion, our results can be used as a background data for devising a plan to develop and operate wind farm over the Korean Peninsula.

In order to figure out the future drought characteristics of the Jeonju plains, the major crop production area in Korea, daily agricultural drought indexes based on soil water balance were calculated for the relevant 12.5 km by 12.5 km grid cell using the weather data generated by the RCP8.5 climate scenario during 1951-2100. The calculations were grouped into five climatological normal years, the past (1951-1980), the present (1981-2010), and the three futures (2011-2040, 2041-2070, and 2071-2100). Results showed that the soil moisture conditions in early spring, worst for both the past and present normal years, will ameliorate gradually in the future and the crop water stress in spring season was projected to become negligible by the end of this century. Furthermore, the drought frequency in early spring was projected to diminish, resulting in rare occurrence of spring drought by that time. However, the result also showed that the soil moisture conditions during the summer season (when most crops grow in Jeonju plain) will deteriorate and the drought incidence will be more frequent than in the past or present period.

전 세계는 지난 135년간(1880~2014년) 지구온난화에 따른 빈번해진 이상기후로 평균 기온은 $0.85^{\circ}C$ 상승하였으며 이로 인해 강우강도, 강우량이 증가하고 있다. 이처럼 기후변화는 수문현상에 많은 영향을 미쳐 물 순환 과정의 정확한 파악을 더욱 어렵게 하고 있으며 안정적인 물 공급을 위한 수자원계획 수립에 불확실성을 증대 시키고 있기 때문에 정확한 물 수요 예측이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한반도 중서부에 위치한 안성천을 대상으로 준 분포 강우-유출 모형인 SLURP모형에 기후변화 RCP8.5 시나리오를 적용하여 기후변화에 따른 안성천의 유출량을 산정하였다. 정확한 물 수요 예측을 위해 K-Weap(통합수자원평가계획모형)모형을 통해 유역별 네트워크 및 시나리오를 구성하고, 용수이용량(생활, 공업, 농업)의 과거자료를 선형예측함수식을 통해 장래 추정량을 생성 하였다. 이처럼 세분화된 자료를 통한 물 수지 분석 결과, 안성천 유역은 인구 증가, 급격한 도시화로 인한 용수 이용량 증가 그리고 기후변화에 따른 지구온난화로 인해 농업용수는 점차적으로 물 부족이 감소하고 있지만, 생활, 공업용수 이용량에 대한 물 부족량이 증가하고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 물 부족을 해소할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 2가지의 대안을 구성해보았으며, 먼 미래의 물 부족시대에 대비할 수 있는 기초적인 자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

This study aims to investigate the variation of water quality and discharge under the condition of climate change and Best Management Practices (BMPs), which is one of the reduction methods for non-point source pollution. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model is applied to case in Cheongmicheon watershed. The coefficients required for SWAT model were calibrated using SWAT Calibration and Uncertainty Program. Climate change is considered by using Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios, RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5. It is known from simulation results that the non-point source pollutant increases under the climate change scenario assuming worse condition. It is also found in this study that an appropriate application of BMPs is able to reduce the quantity and temporal variation of non-point source pollutant effectively.

The purpose of this study is to understand meteorological and climatological factors that have influence on the garlic product in Seosan and Taean, and to analyze the economic value according to the use of climatical information data for garlic farmers. The climatological characteristics and trends in this area are analyzed using the meteorological data at the Seosan local meteorological agency from 1984 to 2013, the national statistical data for the product of garlic from 1989 to 2013, and the scenario data for climate change (RCP 4.5 and 8.5) for the period from 2001 to 2100. The results are as follows. First, the condition of lower temperature for garlic growth in winter season is satisfied with the mean air temperature. The wind speed are lower and stronger in Seosan and Taean than other garlic area. The suitable condition for the growth of northern type of garlic shows the decreasing trend in the accumulated precipitation in May. However, the area of growing the northern type garlic in the future is likely diminished because mean air temperature, accumulated precipitation, and mean wind speed are strong in the harvest time of garlic. Second, the seedtime of the northern and southern type of garlic using climate change scenarios (RCP 4.5, 8.5) in Seosan and Taean is getting late as time passes. and the harvest time gets faster, which indicates s that the period of garlic cultivation becomes shorter from 50 days to around 90 in the next 100 years. Third, the beginning days of white rot and delia platura of garlic are estimated by applying to the meteorological algorithm using mean air temperature and soil humidity. Especially, the beginning day of white rot garlic is shown to be faster according to the scenarios of RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5. Fourth, the product of garlic (kg/10a) shows a high correlation with the minimum air temperature of a wintering time, the mean wind speed of a wintering time, the accumulated precipitation of a corpulent time, and the mean relative humidity of corpulent time of garlic. On the other hand, the analysis of garlic product when using the meteorological information data in cultivating garlic in Seosan and Taean reveals that the economic value increases up to 9% in total.

Climate change can affect variables related to the life cycle of insects, including growth, development, survival, reproduction and distribution. As it encourages alien insects to rapidly spread and settle, climate change is regarded as one of the direct causes of decreased biodiversity because it disturbed ecosystems and reduces the population of native species. Hypera postica caused a great deal of damage in the southern provinces of Korea after it was first identified on Jeju lsland in the 1990s. In recent years, the number of individuals moving to estivation sites has concerned scientists due to the crop damage and national proliferation. In this study, we examine how climate change could affect inhabitation of H. postica. The MaxEnt model was applied to estimate potential distributions of H. postica using future climate change scenarios, namely, representative concentration pathway (RCP) 4.5 and RCP 8.5. As variables of the model, this study used six bio-climates (bio3, bio6, bio10, bio12, bio14, and bio16) in consideration of the ecological characteristics of 66 areas where inhabitation of H. postica was confirmed from 2015 to 2017, and in consideration of the interrelation between prediction variables. The fitness of the model was measured at a considered potentially useful level of 0.765 on average, and the warmest quarter has a high contribution rate of 60-70%. Prediction models (RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5) results for the year 2050 and 2070 indicated that H. postica habitats are projected to expand across the Korean peninsula due to increasing temperatures.

This study performed prediction of extreme rainfall uncertainty and its frequency analysis based on climate change scenarios by Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) for the selected nine-General Circulation Models (GCMs) in the near future (2011-2040) over the Korean Peninsula (KP). We analysed uncertainty of scenarios by multiple model ensemble (MME) technique using non-parametric quantile mapping method and bias correction method in the basin scale of the KP. During the near future, the extreme rainfall shows a significant gradually increasing tendency with the annual variability and uncertainty of extreme ainfall in the RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 scenarios. In addition to the probability rainfall frequency (such as 50 and 100-year return periods) has increased by 4.2% to 10.9% during the near future in 2040. Therefore, in the longer-term water resources master plan, based on the various climate change scenarios (such as CMIP5 GCMs) and its uncertainty can be considered for utilizing of the support tool for decision-makers in water-related disasters management.

Since future climate scenarios indicate that extreme precipitation events will intensity, probable maximum precipitations (PMPs) without being taken climate change into account are very likely to be underestimated. In this study future PMPs in accordance with the variation of future rainfall are estimated. The hydro-meteorologic method is used to calculate PMPs. The orographic transposition factor is applied in place of the conventional terrain impact factor which has been used in previous PMPs estimation reports. Future DADs are indirectly obtained by using bias-correction and moving-averaged changing factor method based on daily precipitation projection under KMA RCM (HEDGEM3-RA) RCP 8.5 climate change scenario. As a result, future PMPs were found to increase and the spatially-averaged annual PMPs increase rate in 4-hour and $25km^2$ was projected to be 3 mm by 2045. In addition, the increased rate of future PMPs is growing increasingly in the future, but it is thought that the uncertainty of estimating PMPs caused by future precipitation projections is also increased in the distant future.

Agriculture is affected directly by climate conditions and changes, and it is necessary to understand the impact of climate change on agricultural reservoirs which are the main water resources for paddy fields in Korea. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of climate change on the anti-drought capacity including water supply capability (WSC) and drought response ability (DRA) of agricultural reservoirs based on RCP (Representative Concentration Pathway) 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios of CanESM2 (The Second Generation Earth System Model) provided by CCCma (Canadian Center for Climate Modeling and Analysis). The WSC and DRA were estimated using frequency analysis and runs theory. The six reservoirs (Yooshin, Nogok, Kumsung, Songgok, Gapyung, Seoma) were selected considering geographical characteristics and design criteria of reservoir capacity. In case of Seoma reservoir, more than 10 year drought return period (DRP), the variation of the WSC was estimated larger than the others. In case of Yooshin reservior (2~5 DRP) DRC was decreased in 2025s under RCP8.5. These results could be utilized for agricultural reservoirs management and future design criteria considering climate change impacts on paddy irrigation.
