This study was carried out to investigate the applicability of SAC-SMA model with parameters which were derived from analytical relationships proposed by Koren etc. (2000), with various data of soil properties in a basin. The studied basin is Yongdam dam basin and the daily runoff with 2003-year hydrological data was simulated. Simulated runoff results were compared with those measured at three check points(Chuchun, Donhyang and Yongdam) and analyzed through the statistical techniques such as VE(Volume Error), RMSE(Root Mean Squared Error) and CORR(Correlation). As a result of analyses, the good agreement was obtained between simulated and measured results.

This study presents a probabilistic distributed hydrological model for Ephemeral catchment, where zero flow often occurs due to the influence of distinct climate characteristics in South Korea. The gridded hydrological model is developed by combining the Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting Model (SAC-SMA) runoff model with a routing model. In addition, an error model is employed to represent a probabilistic hydrologic model. To be specific, the hydrologic model is coupled with a censoring error model to properly represent the features of ephemeral catchments. The performance of the censoring error model is evaluated by comparing it with the Gaussian error model, which has been utilized in a probabilistic model. We first address the necessity to consider ephemeral catchments through a review of the extensive research conducted over the recent decade. Then, the Yongdam Dam catchment is selected for our study area to confirm the usefulness of the hydrologic model developed in this study. Our results indicate that the use of the censored error model provides more reliable results, although the two models considered in this study perform reliable results. In addition, the Gaussian model delivers many negative flow values, suggesting that it occasionally offers unrealistic estimations in hydrologic modeling. In an in-depth analysis, we find that the efficiency of the censored error model may increase as the frequency of zero flow increases. Finally, we discuss the importance of utilizing the censored error model when the hydrologic model is applied for ephemeral catchments in South Korea.

Generally, a natural river discharge is highly regulated by the hydraulic structures, and the regulated flow is substantially different from natural inflow characteristics for the use of water resources planning. The natural inflow data are necessarily required for hydrologic analysis and water resources planning. This study aimed to develop an integrated model for more reliable simulation of daily dam inflow. First, a piecewise Kernel-Pareto distribution was used for rainfall simulation model, which can more effectively reproduce the low order moments (e.g. mean and median) as well as the extremes. Second, a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo scheme was applied for the SAC-SMA rainfall-runoff model that is able to quantitatively assess uncertainties associated with model parameters. It was confirmed that the proposed modeling scheme is capable of reproducing the underlying statistical properties of discharge, and can be further used to provide a set of plausible scenarios for water budget analysis in water resources planning.

본 연구에서는 우리나라에서 발생하는 무유출량을 고려하는 확률기반 격자형 수문 모형을 용담댐 유역에 구축하였다. 용담댐 유역은 무유출량이 종종 나타나는 간혈하천 (Ephemeral catchment) 유역으로 우리나라의 많은 유역들이 여기에 해당한다. 격자형 수문 모형의 구축을 위하여 Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting Model (SAC-SMA) 유출 모형을 사용하여 라우팅 모형과 결합하였다. 무유출량을 표현하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 검열된 오류 모형 (censoring error model)을 사용하였다. 구축한 오류 모형과 기존에 많이 사용되는 정규화된 오류 모형의 비교를 하였으며 이를 통하여 본 연구에서 구축한 모형의 적합성을 평가하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서 구축한 두 개의 모형이 둘 다 신뢰할 만한 결과를 보여주지만 검열된 오류 모형이 더 적합한 결과를 보여주며 무유출의 빈도 증가에 따라 효율이 증가하는 것을 보여 준다. 그리고 기존의 방법론은 확률 기반의 유출량의 표현에 있어서 0 이하의 음수값을 표현하여 현실적이지 못한 수문 모델링을 표현한다. 따라서 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 간헐하천 유역에 대한 고려가 우리나라에 수문 모델 구축에 있어서 필요하다는 것을 의미한다.

This study is to perform the rainfall-runoff analysis of the basin of Yongdam dam where is loacted in the Geumriver basin. The model used is the SAC-SMA model which was developed by U.S. National Weather Service. The Precipitation data used as the input data of the model are daily ones observed in 2002 and the mean of values recorded in 5 rainfall stations. The evaporation data are used observed in Daejeon meteorological station. The geographical data such as basin slope and stream gradient are elicited from the numerical map analysis. In the verification through the comparison of calculated daily inflow with observed one, parameters used in the model are estimated manually. As the result of verification, total annual calculated inflow is 13,547CMS and agree accurately with the observed one. During the period of one year of 2002, before 100 days and after 250 days, the soil moisture condition in the upper zone was significantly dry and in spite of the rainfall in this period, the runoff was not generated. Through this result, we can observe that the moisture condition in the soil affects strongly the runoff in a basin.

In this study two rainfall-runoff models, the NWS-PC model and the Storage Function Model (SFM), were compared to see their applicability in the flood forecasting at the river system. The SFM has been adopted in the flood-forecasting and warning system for the major rivers in Korea since 1974, and the NWS-PC model, a physically based model, has been developed to simulate soil moisture changing as well as the surface and subsurface flow at the watershed and in the river streams. Case studies were carried out using flood event data observed at the Mihochun watershed in Geum-river basin during 1985 to 1995. Simulated results from both models were compared with the observed data with respect to the RMS errors and relative errors for peak flow discharges and total runoff volumes to show the advantages and disadvantages of both models and to suggest the way to improve their performances.

This paper presents a procedure of evaluation of reservoir capacity for additional water storage for dam rehabilitation. One of the techniques on the extension of rainfall has been developed, and the daily stream flows were simulated by the NWS-PC long-term rainfall-runoff model with the input of the extended daily rainfall which was stochastically generated by the nonhomogeneous markov chain model. We peformed a reliability analysis to Guisan dam about the optimal capacity of dam rehabilitation by using performance criteria that Hashimoto et al. (1982) presented. We estimated that the most suitable water level is approximately 155EL.M. suggested that this method can use supplemental methods to estimate optimum dam scale.
