지구의 평균기온이 지속적으로 상승함에 따라 지구온난화로 인한 기후변화는 지구에 분포되어 있는 극지방의 빙하들을 녹임으로써 지구의 물 순환시스템을 교란시켜 집중호우와 태풍, 가뭄, 낙뢰 등 예측을 불허하는 극한 기상변화를 발생시키고 있다. 기후변화로 인해 바다의 수온이 상승함에 따라 빙하가 녹거나 바닷물이 팽창하여 해수면이 상승하게 되는 바, 1990년 대비 2000년대에 동해바다에서는 상승률이 0.07cm/yr이던것이 0.20cm/yr로 나타났으며, 서해바다에서는 0.14cm/yr이던 것이 0.18cm/yr로 나타났고, 남해바다에서는 0.32cm/yr이던 것이 0.34cm/yr 로 평균상승률이 1990년대에 비해 증가하는 것으로 관측되었다. 본 연구에서는 기후변화로 인한 자연재해 피해를 최소화하기 위해 소방방재청의 현행 업무를 중심으로 재해를 예방하기 위한 풍수해 업무별 추진해야할 연구과제들을 조사 제시하고자 하였다. 기후변화에 따른 재난분야의 정책과 관련된 연구적인 측면의 분야를 제시하기 위하여 최근에 나타난 자연재난 피해현상에 대한 원인 및 대책을 기초로 하여, 재난관리분야에서 추진하고 있는 업무를 계승 발전시킴으로써 기후변화로 인한 피해를 예방 또는 최소화 할 수 있는 방향으로 제시하고자 하였다. 기후변화에 따른 소방방재청의 풍수해 재난관리 분야 종합계획을 제시하기 위해 본 연구에서는 기후변화 관련 최근 국내 외의 동향을 먼저 살펴보았다. 1977년부터 2006년까지 우리나라 최근 30년간의 재해연보에 제시되어 있는 시설물별 피해액을 조사하여 시설물 중 피해액이 많은 순으로 주요피해 시설물을 파악하였다. 여기에서 주요피해 시설물로는 하천, 도로, 소하천, 수리, 농경지, 사방 등의 순으로 나타났다. 이러한 주요시설물에 대한 피해현황을 파악하기 위하여 대규모 풍수해 피해에 대한 현황, 원인분석 및 대책이 제시되어 있는 각종 피해조사 보고서, 연구보고서 및 전문 학술지 기사들을 수집 분석하였으며, 수집된 자료를 토대로 각각의 재해피해현상에 대하여 시설물의 피해현상, 원인 및 대책을 분류하여 분석하고자 한다. 재난관리 분야 중 우수유출저감시설 관련 제시된 업무방향을 보면 침투 저류를 위한 우수유출저감시설의 개발연구, 침수위험지구의 지정기준 등급별 방재대책 방안연구, 유역별 재해위험 저감능력의 평가기준 개발, 단위구역별 우수유출저감시설의 확보기준 연구, 우수유출저감시설의 국내 표준화 방안 연구, 우수유출저감시설 설치자에 대한 인센티브 도입방안 연구, 피해지역의 매입을 통한 저류지화 방안 연구, 우수유출저감시설 설치효과의 교육 홍보 및 우수유출저감시설의 국제 표준화 기준 제정 추진 등이 필요할 것으로 조사되었다. 여기에서 제시된 재난관리 업무분야별 많은 연구과제들이 향후 연구할 수 있는 재원확보로 이어져 재난관리의 업무발전에 도움이 될 수 있도록 하여야 하겠으며, 주요 결론으로는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우리나라는 기후변화에 대해서는 기존에 소극적으로 대응하였으나 기후변화대책기획단을 만들어 적극적으로 대처하고 있으므로 기후변화와 관련된 여러분야가 활성화 될 것으로 판단된다. 둘째, 국외의 기후변화 대응사례에서 보면 시설물의 규모를 볼 때 큰 규모의 예산을 투입하는 것으로 판단되는바, 이는 향후의 불확실한 기후변화에 대비하는 선진적인 판단으로 검토되어야 할 것이다. 셋째, 풍수해 관련 주요업무 8가지에 대하여 추진해야할 업무방향 48개를 선정 제시하였다.

Damage to structures, such as bridge piers, are increasing rapidly due to the debris moving along rivers at the time of flooding. Therefore, the debris fin, debris deflector and debris sweeper, which are debris reduction systems, were produced in this study and an accumulation experiment was carried out on the experimental channel according to the existence of the reduction system. The debris fin is the reduction system that creates parallel flow on debris accumulated on the bridge to pass through the bridge, which was produced using wood. In addition, the debris deflector was produced using steel pipes and it has the type of detouring the direction of debris. The debris sweeper passes the debris using the magnetic force rotation of a screw-shaped cylindrical structure by water flow and it was produced using acrylic material. The experiment was carried out by analyzing the level of accumulation according to the hardness and dropping method of the debris and comparing the accumulation rate of reduction systems, and the experiment was carried out 5 times. According to the experimental results, there was a difference in the accumulation rate according to the type of reduction system and the shape of debris, and it often depended significantly on the initial shape of debris accumulation. The direct debris reduction effect on the bridge was higher in the order of the debris deflector, debris sweeper and debris fin, but in case of the debris deflector, damage, such as stream turbulence, changes in water level and river bed, and the loss of deflector can occur due to debris accumulated directly on the debris deflector. Therefore, it is necessary to design the debris deflector considering these issues.

This paper tried to verify whether the fixed fire fighting system (FFFS) that is installed in road tunnel improves evacuation performance or not. Verification was performed according to the Disaster Prevention Facilities Installation and Management Guide at Road Tunnel. Twenty seven different fire scenarios were set up for the verification and the cases that FFFS was installed were compared with the cases that FFFS was not installed. The result of the comparison showed that the average equivalent death was reduced in 26 cases out of 27 cases when water spray extinguishing system was installed. It was confirmed that the risk when was not installed was unacceptable in Hong Kong and the Netherlands. On the other hand, it was confirmed that the risk was reduced to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP) when was installed. The cumulative frequency of average death in case with FFFS was compared against the frequency of death without FFFS: death of one or more is about 50 times less; 10 or more is about 100 times less; and the death of more than 100 is four times less. It was verified that FFFS makes improved conditions to escape from the fires in road tunnel.

The aim of study is to present how to estimate and use the FRI (Flood Risk Index) for classifying area zones based on regional flooding risk in terms of the integrated flood risk management. To estimate the FRI at a spatial resolution of city/county/town units for the Nakdong River Watershed, the 17 representative flood indexing factors are carefully selected for the three flood indexes, such as PI (Pressure Index), SI (State Index), and RI (Response Index) under the P-S-R (Pressure-State-Response) classification system. Because flood indexing factors are measured at different scales and units, they are transformed into a common domain by the T-Score normalization technique. The entropy weight coefficient method is also applied to calculate the weight of flood indexing factors in order to reduce subjective judgement on the effect of weight coefficients. The three flood indexes of PI, SI, and RI are integrated for an overall value of the FRI to evaluate the flood risk of districts. To examine the practical application of the proposed FRI, the FRI results with/without the weight coefficients are compared with flooding zones of natural disaster risk areas officially announced in 2010. It is expected that the FRI ensured by full verification can make regional protection plans against flooding disasters with respect to causes and characteristics of past floods.

In this study, the characteristics of flow and bed changes with variation of space and length of serial spur dikes were investigated with 2 dimensional numerical simulation. Upstream spur dike was affected by flow and made a role as a single spur dike. As time increased, local scouring was developed around outside of spur dike, and migrated upstream. The aggradation of the bed at the back of spur-dike was made at the initial stage of experiment and numerical modelling. However, the aggradation of the bed was increased in the downstream area. The scour whole around a spur dike upstream was not deep as the Dimensionless spur-dike interval (b) of the dike increased. The depth of scour hole was nearly constant at the dynamic equilibrium state. The dimensionless scour depth ($y_s/H$) increased with L/b. The spur dike downstream had the characteristics of single spur dike as the L/b was larger than 10. However, the spur dike downstream was affected by the dike upstream as the L/b was less than 4, and the bed of the upstream in the spur dike was aggradated and the effects of the serial spur dikes on the bed decreased.

This study analyzed the characteristics of orographic effect using radar data for the Chungju dam basin. First, independent rainfall events were selected by applying the IETD (Interevent Time Definition) and rainfall threshold. Among those independent rainfall events, rather strong events were selected to decide the occurrence condition of orographic effect. Also, the average reflectivity was calculated for the entire period and for the period of storm center, and the change in reflectivity was analyzed by comparing the average reflectivity to that in the mountain area. Important rainfall factors were selected and applied to the logistic regression model to decide the occurrence condition of orographic effect. Summarizing the results is as follows. First, evaluation of the radar data along the passing line of a storm showed the increase of radar reflectivity in the mountain area. Second, the result of logistic regression analysis showed that the orographic effect in the Chungju Dam Basin mostly occurred when the rainfall intensity was higher than 4 mm/hr, the storm velocity was lower than 4 km/hr, and the approach angle was $90^{\circ}{\pm}5^{\circ}$.

This study investigates the adjustment processes of the rivers after weir removal through laboratory experiments. Delta upstream eroded rapidly by flow at the initial stage of the experiments and the knickpoint migrates upward. Moreover, the knickpoint moves fast upward on the condition of alternate bars. The head cutting in the bed is developed fast at the initial stage. However, the erosion speed in the bed decreases with time. The well developed alternate bars migrates with keeping their shape downstream, and the bars affect the channel downstream to adjust new environments after weir removal. Maximum scouring depth downstream and the migration speed decrease over time after removing the weir. The scouring depth in the channel without alternate bars migrates with speed. However, the depth in the channel with alternate bars migrates slow downstream. The channel with alternate bars, in turn, is adjusted well to the new equilibrium states. The maximum scouring depth migrates downstream with time, and the scouring depth and its migration speed decreases with time. The dimensionless maximum scouring depth decreases with the migration speed of dimensionless maximum scouring depth because the deeply scoured places capture the sediments from upstream and the migration speed is slow as the places are filled with them. The dimensionless maximum scouring depth is shallow as the dimensionless backfilling speed is high. The dimensionless maximum scouring depth decreases rapidly less than 5 of dimensionless backfilling speed. However, the depth decreases slow more than 5 of it.

This study analyzes the impact on geomorphic changes downstream due to alternate bars developed weir upstream through laboratory experiments. The disturbance, such as a spur in the side wall, of the flow at the inlet of the channel triggers the development of alternate bar upstream at the beginning of the experiment, and gradually moved downstream with keeping their shapes over time. The bed in the downstream of weir in the mid of channel scoured due to the scarcity of sediment inflow because weir upstream traps it. Moreover, bar migration speed decreases as the bars approaches to the weir with time. However, as time increases, the alternate bars upstream migrate over the weir, and sediment in the eroded bed of the weir downstream are deposited. The phase of the bar upstream changes oppositely after passing through the weir. The phase of the bar downstream changes rapidly as the shape of alternate bar is clear upstream, which is affected by the strong disturbance. The phase of bar changes, and the bar migration speed decreases gradually with time, and finally stopped due to forcing effects on the bar by the disturbance. The faster the reaction of alternate bar with a long spur, the larger the bar height formed downstream and the shorter the bar length. This means that the larger the forcing effect of bar, the more it affects the bar migration. In addition, although the size of the alternate bar increases over time, the bar doesn't migrate downstream and a forced bar is generated.

Many researches illustrated that the magnitude and frequency of hydrological event would increase in the future due to changes of hydrological cycle components according to climate change. However, few studies performed quantitative analysis and evaluation of future rainfall in North Korea, where the damage caused by extreme precipitation is expected to occur as in South Korea. Therefore, this study predicted the extreme precipitation change of North Korea in the future (2020-2060) compared to the current (1981-2017) using stationary and nonstationary frequency analysis. This study conducted nonstationary frequency analysis considering the external factors (mean precipitation of JFM (Jan.-Mar.), AMJ (Apr.-Jun.), JAS (Jul.-Sept.), OND (Oct.-Dec.)) of the HadGEM2-AO model simulated according to the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) climate change scenarios. In order to select external factors that have a similar tendency with extreme rainfall events in North Korea, the maximum annual rainfall data was obtained by using the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method. Correlation analysis was performed between the extracted residue and the external factors. Considering selected external factors, nonstationary GEV model was constructed. In RCP4.5, four of the eight stations tended to decrease in future extreme precipitation compared to the present climate while three stations increased. On the other hand, in RCP8.5, two stations decreased while five stations increased.

The naturally opened Han river estuary is a place where the flows of the Han river, Imjin river, Yaesung river meet with West Sea of Korea, so the hydrodynamic mechanism(Impact-Response) structure of Han river estuary is complex. Continuous observation and measurement due to the morphological characteristics at the estuary are required to maintain the estuary environment and river management facilities. However, the Sannam wetland(the study area) is in the military operation area. Therefore, Sannam wetland has the limited access under the control from military office. In 2020, there had a natural disaster due to flooding in August and COVID-19, and it made a survey hard. The noncontact survey technique, the analysis of LANDSAT images at Sannam wetland, was applied to analyze riverbed fluctuation and morphological transformation around Sannam wetland. LANDSAT images obtained from EarthExplorer, USGS and analyzed by QGIS. The analysis was performed based on the area and the distance near Sannam wetland. As a result, an erosion was happened on the downstream of the study area, and the upstream of the study area did not have any serious sediment transport. Considering the resolution of LANDSAT images, this noncontect survey technique is applicable to manage the study area. From the analysis of LANDSAT images, it is assumed that the tidal effect is greater than the inflow from the upstream. The pattern change of tidal response causes the damage of the river facilities near the Hangang river estuary.
