We are now currently facing serious climate changes such as super typhoon, flood, intense heat, severe cold, super hurricane, drought, desertification, destruction of ecosystem, marine pollution, reduction of food production, destruction of tropical forests, exhaustion of water resources, climate refugees, etc. All of the above mainly derive from greenhouse gas exhaustion. Such harmful consequence might directly affect mankind's sustainable development. If we keep using resources that emits greenhouse gases, the global temperature will rise about $3.2^{\circ}C$ by year 2050. In case of $3^{\circ}C$ rise in temperature, it will result in abnormal climate which will bring about severe property damage. Moreover, 20~50% of the ecosystem will become extinct. As Korea's economy increasingly expands, so do our energy consumption rises. And because of the consequences that can be driven by increasing rate of resource use, not just Korea itself, but also the whole world should seriously concern about greenhouse gases. Although agricultural division only takes up about 3.2% of total greenhouse gas emission, the ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs are taking voluntary actions to gradually reduce $CO_2$ and so does each and every related organizations. In order to reduce $CO_2$, introduction of new and renewable energy in farm house warming is crucial. In other words, implementing wood-pellet boiler and geothermal heat boiler can largly reduce $CO_2$ emission compared to diesel boiler. More importantly, not only wood-pellet and geothermal heat is pollution-free but they also have economic advantages some-what. In this thesis, the economic advantage and sustainablity will be introduced and proved through comparing practical analysis of surveyed farm house under structure employing wood-pellet boiler and geothermal heat boiler with Agriculture-Economic Statistic of 2012 who uses diesel boiler.

In Korea, the frequency of soil disasters has soared recently due to increased torrential rains caused by abnormal weather conditions. In particular, soil generated from mountainous areas is flowing into small rivers along valleys, depositing rivers and adding to flood damage. In order to prevent damage from such soil disasters, it is important to predict sediments and to quantitatively identify bed load. In this work, we conducted an experiment to indirectly measure acoustic sensor-based bed load collision sounds using pipe hydrophones, and compared them with raw data by applying denoising methods to improve the reliability of the measured data. As a result, we derive results in a more clear analysis of bed load estimation by correcting noise when the denoising method is applied to raw data.

Recently, due to the frequent occurrence of localized torrential rains and heat waves caused by abnormal climates. For this reason, it is necessary to develop an economical and eco-friendly rainwater detention facility that can secure the groundwater level through rainwater detention as well as flood prevention against concentrated rainfall by simultaneously implementing rainwater permeation and storage. In this study, the structural safety of an eco-friendly rainwater infiltration type detention facility made using eco-friendly inorganic binders including red clay was examined. Static analysis considering the constant load and additional vertical load and dynamic analysis considering the seismic spectrum were performed. As a result, it was found that the eco-friendly prefabricated rainwater infiltration type detention facility developed in this study has a maximum stress of about 68.1% to 75.4% and a maximum displacement of about 0.9% to 9.6% under the same load and seismic conditions compared to the existing PE block rainwater detention facility. It was confirmed that the eco-friendly prefabricated rainwater infiltration type detention facility secured excellent structural stability.

The frequency of localized heavy rain is increasing due to the influence of abnormal climate that is rapidly increasing in recent years. As a result, the difficulty of safe water resource management is increasing and human and material damage is increasing. Various countermeasures are being established to reduce the damage caused by localized heavy rain, but small-scale mountain catchments are experiencing many difficulties due to the lack of a basic plan. Therefore in this study the risk of flooding was evaluated using the rainfall-runoff model in the Yu-pyeong catchment national park among national parks in Korea. As a result of the analysis, it was simulated that flooding occurred in the Yu-pyeong catchment of Mt. Jirisan when rainfall with a recurrence frequency of 50 years or more occurred, and it was confirmed that there was a high risk of structures, safety facilities and trails.

In recent years, the occurrence of abnormal weather has increased rapidly, increasing the frequency of torrential rain. As a result, stable water resource management is difficult, and human and material damage is increasing. Various measures are being established to reduce damage caused by torrential rains, but small-scale mountain catchments are relatively difficult to manage due to lack of basic plan. In this study, the risk of flooding was evaluated using the rainfall-flow model in the Yeonhwa-dong catchment national park among national parks in Korea. The Yeonhwa-dong catchment of Mt. Sobaeksan was simulated to cause flooding when rainfall of more than 50 years occurred, and it was confirmed that there was a high risk of water resource structures, safety facilities, and trails.

Numerous deaths and substantial property damage have occurred recently due to frequent disasters of the highest intensity according to the abnormal climate, which is caused by various problems, such as global warming, all over the world. Such large-scale disasters have become an international issue and have made people aware of the disasters so they can implement disaster-prevention measures. Extensive information on disaster prevention actively has been announced publicly to support the natural disaster reduction measures throughout the world. In Japan, diverse developmental studies on disaster prevention systems, which support hazard map development and flood control activity, have been conducted vigorously to estimate external forces according to design frequencies as well as expected maximum frequencies from a variety of areas, such as rivers, coasts, and ports based on broad disaster prevention data obtained from several huge disasters. However, the current reduction measures alone are not sufficiently effective due to the change of the paradigms of the current disasters. Therefore, in order to obtain the synergy effect of reduction measures, a study of the establishment of an integrated system is required to improve the various disaster prevention technologies and the current disaster prevention system. In order to develop a similar typhoon search system and establish a disaster prevention infrastructure, in this study, techniques will be developed that can be used to forecast typhoons before they strike by using artificial intelligence (AI) technology and offer primary disaster prevention information according to the direction of the typhoon. The main function of this model is to predict the most similar typhoon among the existing typhoons by utilizing the major typhoon information, such as course, central pressure, and speed, before the typhoon directly impacts South Korea. This model is equipped with a combination of AI and DNN forecasts of typhoons that change from moment to moment in order to efficiently forecast a current typhoon based on similar typhoons in the past. Thus, the result of a similar typhoon search showed that the quality of prediction was higher with the grid size of one degree rather than two degrees in latitude and longitude.

This study classified abnormal sea surface temperature changes of the central pacific region according to three evolution patterns. Focusing on typhoons that affect the Korean Peninsula, the research analyzed typhoon's occurrence spot and track, change in the central pressure characteristics, and the characteristics of change in typhoon precipitation and the number of occurrences of heavy rainfall in the Nakdong River Basin. As a result of analysis, in case of prolonged-decaying years and symmetric-decaying years, typhoon-related summer rainfall and heavy rainy days appeared to be higher than long-term average. But in case of abrupt-decaying years, the pattern of general decrease appeared. This is because typhoon's occurrence spot is located comparatively near the Korean peninsula, typhoon's central pressure is high, and typhoon's route generally moves to Japan. As the outcome, this study is expected to reduce flood damage through analyzing the characteristics of typhoon's activity according to CP El Ni$\tilde{n}$o evolution patterns and the characteristics of local typhoon rainfall. In addition, it is expected to provide useful information for establishing adaptation and mitigation to climate change.

Sediment exchange in river has been affected by artificial changes such as dredging and abnormal climate changes like intense rainfall. Over last decades in Korea, there were many constructions, restoration or rehabilitation in rivers. Therefore, deposition and erosion become more actively occurred than before, which may threaten the river safety such as flood defense. For safety's sake, the dredging of river bed, which is considered as the most typical measure, has been increased to extend hydraulic conveyance compared with previous conditions. However, since it might change the sediment mechanism, there would be another risk at which unexpected side effects such as headward erosion could be occurred. Particularly, sedimentation at abrupt expansion region is able to lead to hydraulic characteristics like water elevation in the upstream region in the beginning of dredging, which, however, has been barely studied in this field. Therefore in this study, the relationship between sediment mechanism at dredging section and hydraulic characteristics in upstream region were presented through numerical simulations in the idealized abruptly widen channel using Delft3D. The ideal channel of 2,000 m length with each side angle of 45 degrees at abruptly widen expansion region was employed to consider the sediment angle of repose. The sensitivity analysis was performed on the dimensionless factors consisted of upstream and downstream depths($h_u$, $h_d$), width($w_u$, $w_d$), water level(H), flow rate(Q) and discharge of sediment($Q_s$). And the sedimentation amount at dredging and the upstream hydraulic characteristics were investigated through that analysis. It showed that $h_d/h_u$, $H/h_u$ and $w_d/w_u$ were more influential in sequence of effect on sedimentation amount, while $h_d/h_u$, $w_d/w_u$ and $H/h_u$ on upstream region. It means that $h_d/h_u$ was revealed as the most significant factors on sedimentation, also it would most highly affect the rising of water level upstream.

The river levee collapse and flood damages are dramatically increased due to the floods which caused by abnormal weather nowadays. The counterplan like TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry) river levee leaking exploration technique is needed to that levee failure causes of levee failure such as levee failure by penetration, piping, inadequate levee materials selection, poor compaction are almost 52% of the failure. This research practiced various comparing experiments of existing TDR(probe and tube types) and developing CAP type TDR to evaluate acrylic small CAP mould and low-cost TDR levee leaking monitoring system which was used probe type TDR. As the result, evaluated TDR system had 20cm critical exploration performance which was a leaking exploration performance, The functional ratio of TDR exploration sensitivity of dry density was sensitive more than 3 times than dry density, and weathered granite soil foundation water contents(w)-dielectric constant(${\epsilon}$) corelation formula was suggested to measure functional ratio on developing cap type TDR system.
