Exact estimation of evapotranspiration is important to understand natural phenomena and social issues associated with the climate such as irrigation scheme, reservoir water management, and many other meteorological and climatological problems. To overcome limits of point measurement of evapotranspiration, several models have been developed through the techniques of remote sensing and Geographical Information System. SEBAL model is one of them, based on the energy balance equation, and it has a lot of advantages such as that it requires relatively small empirical relations. In this study, the SEBAL model has been calibrated and validated in Geumgang upper basin, Bochung-stream basin, Korea with 5 satellite images Landsat 5 TM. In validation, the results of SEBAL model were compared with those by Merton method. After validation, the spatial and temporal characteristics of the distribution of evapotranspiration within the basin were analyzed with 3 factors, the aspect of slope, the angle of slope, and the land cover.

This study is to develop a grid-based daily runoff model considering seasonal vegetation canopy condition. The model simulates the temporal and spatial variation of runoff components (surface, interflow, and baseflow), evapotranspiration (ET) and soil moisture contents of each grid element. The model is composed of three main modules of runoff, ET, and soil moisture. The total runoff was simulated by using soil water storage capacity of the day, and was allocated by introducing recession curves of each runoff component. The ET was calculated by Penman-Monteith method considering MODIS leaf area index (LAI). The daily soil moisture was routed by soil water balance equation. The model was evaluated for 930 $km^2$ Yongdam watershed. The model uses 1 km spatial data on landuse, soil, boundary, MODIS LAI. The daily weather data was built using IDW method (2000-2008). Model calibration was carried out to compare with the observed streamflow at the watershed outlet. The Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency was 0.78~0.93. The watershed soil moisture was sensitive to precipitation and soil texture, consequently affected the streamflow, and the evapotranspiration responded to landuse type.

This study was conducted to evaluate observed runoff data collected every 10 minutes at stream gauging stations in Jeju Island using a physically-based model, SWAT. The Hancheon watershed was selected as study area, and ephemeral stream algorithm suggested by previous research was incorporated into the model, which is able to simulate ephemeral runoff pattern of Jeju streams. Simulated runoff and runoff rates were compared to observations during 2008-2013, which showed 'very good' performance rating in Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency (ME) and determination coefficient ($R^2$). Some observations had problems such that runoff rates were very high for some rainfall events with little amount of antecedent rainfall, and were very low or missing with much rainfall comparing to previous researches. Additionally, regression equation between precipitation and simulated runoff was generated with high degree of correlation. The equation can be utilized to simply predict reasonable runoff, or to investigate and complement the abnormal or missing data of observations on the assumption that modelling results were sufficiently reliable and satisfactory. As results, minimizing the error in calibrating the model by evaluation of observed data would be helpful to accurately model the rainfall-runoff characteristics and analyze the water balance components of watersheds in Jeju Island.

To prepare for agricultural droughts, the potential discharge to the water supply of irrigation facilities during drought periods is important. Using the MODSIM (Modified SIMYLD) model, water balance networks that consider irrigation facilities were designed for the Geum River Basin, and the potential discharge to the agricultural water supply of irrigation facilities were evaluated by running the model using data for 36 years (1967-2002). It was found that agricultural water deficiencies occurred during the drought years more than in the other years. The agricultural water deficiencies in 1994, 1995, and 2001, the representative drought years, were 745.8 million m$^3$, 661.1 million m$^3$, and 696.8 million m$^3$, respectively. The average potential discharge to the water supply of the sub-basin was 99.1 % in the cases of municipal and industrial water, and 84.4 % in the case of agricultural water. The potential discharge to the water supply in 1994, 1995, and 2001 were 74.8 %, 79.2 %, and 77.9 %, respectively, which are lower than those of the other years' sub-basin average. In the analysis of the contribution of each irrigation facility, the contributions of pumping stations and diversions were calculated as 32.5 %, and of culverts and wells, 4.0 %. During the drought periods, the pumping stations and diversions contributed to a certain level.

A method of estimating irrigation water need based on water balance and net water consumption concept is proposed, and applied to four watersheds in order to assess the regional and altitudinal characteristics of evapotranspiration and water need for upland crops in Jeju Island. Potential and actual evapotranspiration, and net water need were calculated during the period 1992 to 2013 using SWAT-K watershed model. The annual potential evapotranspiration decreased linearly with increasing elevation, while actual evapotranspiration showed increase with elevation to 400 m around and gradual decrease at higher elevation due to vegetation species, water availability, and cold limitation. Altitudinal pattern of net water need showed linear decrease with increasing elevation for three watersheds (Han-cheon, Cheonmi-cheon, and Oedo-cheon), and annual values of net water need for upland areas (below 200 m in elevation) were 559~680mm/yr. The comparison between actual pumping rate from wells and net water need for irrigation area showed that the amount of pumping water significantly increased during summer season (June to August), while net water need for crop cultivation relatively decreased during this period. To ensure these results, more water use data from pumping wells and additional watersheds should be investigated in the next study.

In this study, parameters of long and short term runoff model were optimized using genetic algorithm as a basic research for integrated water management in a watershed. In case of Korea where drought and flood occurr frequently, the integrated water management is necessary to minimize possible damage of drought and flood. Modified TANK model was optimized as a long term runoff model and storage-function model was optimized as a short term runoff model. Besides distinguished parameters were applied to modified TANK model for supplementing defect that the model estimates less runoff in the storm period. As a result of application, simulated long and short term runoff results showed 7% and 5% improvement compared with before optimized on the average. In case of modified TANK model using distinguished parameters, the simulated runoff after optimized showed more interrelationship than before optimized. Therefore, modified TANK model can be applied for the long term water balance as an integrated water management in a watershed. In case of storage-function model, simulated runoff in the storm period showed high interrelationship with observed one. These optimized models can be applied for the runoff analysis of watershed.

In this study, a criteria for the SWAT model calibration method in SWAT-CUP which considers multi-site and multi-variable observations was presented. For its application, the SWAT model was simulated using long-term observed flow, soil moisture, and evapotranspiration data in Yongdam study watershed, investigating the hydrological runoff characteristics and water balance in the water cycle analysis. The model was calibrated with different parameter values for each sub-watershed in order to reflect the characteristics of multiple observations through one-by-one calibration, appropriate settings of model simulation run/iteration number (1,000 simulation runs in the first iteration and then 500 simulation runs for the following iterations), and executions of partial and all run in SWAT-CUP. The flow simulation results of watershed outlet point, ENS 0.85, R2 0.87, and PBIAS -7.6%, were compared with the analysis results (ENS 0.52, R2 0.54, and PBIAS -22.4%) applied in the other batch (i.e., non one-by-one) calibration approach and showed better performances of proposed method. From the simulation results of a total of 15 years, it was found that the total runoff (streamflow) and evapotranspiration rates from precipitation are 53 and 39%, and the ratio of surface runoff and baseflow (i.e., sum of lateral and return flow, and recharge deep aquifer) are 35 and 65%, respectively, in Yongdam watershed. In addition, the analytical amount of available water (i.e., water yield), including the total annual streamflow (daily average 21.8 m3/sec) is 6.96 billion m3 per year (about 540 to 900 mm for sub-watersheds).

Evapotranspiration, one of the hydrometeorological components, is considered an important variable for water resource planning and management and is primarily used as input data for hydrological models such as water balance models. The FAO56 PM method has been recommended as a standard approach to estimate the reference evapotranspiration with relatively high accuracy. However, the FAO56 PM method is often challenging to apply because it requires considerable hydrometeorological variables. In this perspective, the Hargreaves equation has been widely adopted to estimate the reference evapotranspiration. In this study, a set of parameters of the Hargreaves equation was calibrated with relatively long-term data within a Bayesian framework. Statistical index (CC, RMSE, IoA) is used to validate the model. RMSE for monthly results reduced from 7.94 ~ 24.91 mm/month to 7.94 ~ 24.91 mm/month for the validation period. The results confirmed that the accuracy was significantly improved compared to the existing Hargreaves equation. Further, the evaporative demand drought index (EDDI) based on the evaporative demand (E₀) was proposed. To confirm the effectiveness of the EDDI, this study evaluated the estimated EDDI for the recent drought events from 2014 to 2015 and 2018, along with precipitation and SPI. As a result of the evaluation of the Han-river watershed in 2018, the weekly EDDI increased to more than 2 and it was confirmed that EDDI more effectively detects the onset of drought caused by heatwaves. EDDI can be used as a drought index, particularly for heatwave-driven flash drought monitoring and along with SPI.

도시화로 인한 생활, 공업, 농업용수의 수요는 증가하지만, 이를 해결하기 위한 댐 건설은 생태계의 단절, 수몰 지역 생성 등의 이유로 비판적인 여론이 많아 신규 수자원 확보가 어려워지고 있다. 따라서 우리는 신규 수자원을 확보하기보다 기존 수자원의 물관리 체계를 개선하고 합리적인 물 배분 기술을 개발할 필요가 있다. 이중 농업용수의 회귀 수량에 대하여 알아볼 필요가 있다. 수리 시설물에서 공급된 농업용수는 전량 작물에 의해 소비되는 것이 아니며, 포장으로 공급되지 않고 용수로를 통해 배수되기도 한다. 포장으로 공급된 수량은 물꼬를 넘어 배수되기도 하고, 일부는 침투되어 지하수를 통해 흘러나가기도 한다. 이 와 같이, 농업용수 공급량 중 소모되지 않고 하천으로 유입되는 수량을 관계 회귀 수량이라 한다. 따라서 본연구에서는 농업에 소모되지 않고 하천으로 유입되는 회귀수량을 정확히 조절할 수 있도록 농업용수 회귀수량을 계산하는 모델을 구현하였다. SWMM(Storm Water Management Model)은 도로, 도랑, 관로, 초지 등 주로 도시지역의 강우-유출-지표면 유출을 해석하는 모델이며 농지의 수로네트워크 특성을 잘 반영할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 이번 연구에서는 용수로를 개수로로 고려하여 테스트베드 모형을 구축할 것이다. SWMM은 농업용수 물순환 모의를 위해 이미 활용되고 있으나 논에서의 증산량이 미반영되며 수혜지역 내의 지하수위가 미반영 되는 등 정확한 물순환 모의를 위해서 한계점 개선이 필요하다. 이 한계점 개선을 위해서 회귀수량 공식을 c언어로 구현 후 EPA SWMM의 소스코드를 활용하여 회귀수량 추정이 가능한 SWMM을 구현하였다. 해당 연구를 통해 농업용수의 회귀수량을 계산하여 정확한 물수지 분석이 가능하여 농업지역의 수자원 확보에 도움을 줄 것이다.

본 연구는 한강유역 (35,770 km²)을 대상으로 RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation)과 WATEM/SEDEM (The Water and Tillage Erosion Model and Sediment Delivery Model)의 유사이동식을 활용하여 인간활동과 기후변화로 인한 유사량을 평가하였다. 대상유역에 영향을 주는 16곳의 기상관측소에서 제공하는 분 단위 누적강수량 (2000-2019), 농촌진흥청 토양도, 국토지리정보원 DEM (Digital Elevation Model), 환경공간정보서비스 (EGIS) 2020년 세분류 토지이용도를 활용하여 RUSLE과 WATEM/SEDEM 유사이동식에 필요한 강우침식인자(R), 토양침식인자 (K), 지형인자 (L·S), 식생피복인자 (C), 그리고 보전관리인자 (P)를 구축하였으며, SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool)으로 모의한 표준유역 단위 연도별(2000-2019) 유사량 결과를 기준으로 WATEM/SEDEM 유사량 계수 (KTC)를 검·보정하였다. 토양침식 산정 입력자료 중 강우량으로 산정하는 강우침식인자는 기후변화를 보여주는 인자, 토지피복에 따라 다른 식생피복인자와 보전관리인자는 인간활동을 나타내는 인자로 설정하였다. 강우침식인자는 2010년대 평균값을 활용하여 현재의 유사량을 평가하였으며, 분 단위 자료가 없는 과거의 경우 직접적인 계산에 어려움이 있어, 연평균 강수량과의 관계로 추정한 1980년대 평균값을 활용하여 기후변화로 인한 영향을 평가하였다. 식생피복인자와 보전관리인자는 1980년대 토지이용도를 활용하여 산정한 결과로 인간활동에 의한 유사량 평가에 사용되었다. 대상유역의 유사량은 RUSLE 모형의 토양침식량과 WATEM/SEDEM 유사이동량을 mass balance로 분석하며, 다른 인자들은 고정한 상태로 과거 강우침식인자, 식생피복인자와 보전관리인자를 적용하여 인간활동과 기후변화로 인한 유사량 변화를 분석하고자 한다.
