Recently, the flood frequency and magnitude have increased due to heavy rainfall. Considering the present condition, a flood risk map has been published in many countries to raise awareness about flood damage to people. A flood inundation analysis model, which is used to publish the flood risk map, can be classified as river and inland inundation models according to the inundation cause. Although a variety of flood inundation analysis models are utilized both domestically and overseas, their usability is limited by the expensive price, except for the HEC-RAS model developed by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). In the situation, the USACE has developed a 2-D HEC-RAS model that can be linked to the existing 1-D model. This model has been released as a beta version under the name, HEC-RAS 5.0. In this study, the HEC-RAS 5.0 model's features, usability, applicability, and accuracy were evaluated by comparing the performances on Gokgyo-cheon with the FLUMEN model, which is used for domestic flood risk mapping. The results of this study will contribute to river inundation analysis in many different ways after the HEC-RAS 5.0 model is stabilized.

Variations of water quality parameters were investigated for last 13 years in Han river. Deviation from 3 month moving average was suggested for the variation analysis. Many parameters of mainstream and tributaries showed similar monthly fluctuations. Suspended solid of mainstream showed higher fluctuation than that of tributaries due to summer flood. Contrarily, the organic parameters such as BOD, COD, and TN showed lower fluctuations in the mainstreams. The magnitude of deviation was in the order of pH < DO, COD, temp. < BOD, TN < TP, SS. Strong correlation was found in BOD data of adjacent sites. Main sites showed low deviation in comparison to adjacent common sites of mainstream (1:2.4). Mainstream showed low deviation in comparison to tributaries (1:1.7). Seasonal tendency of monthly BOD was confirmed using autocorrelation function. The deviation was in inverse proportion to the magnitude of BOD.

This study assessed urban flood risk using a Bayesian probability statistical method and GIS incorporating a climate change scenario. Risk is assessed based on a combination of hazard probability and its consequences, the degree of impact. Flood probability was calculated on the basis of a Bayesian model and future flood occurrence likelihoods were estimated using climate change scenario data. The flood impacts include human and property damage. Focusing on Seocho-gu, Seoul, the findings are as follows. Current flood probability is high in areas near rivers, as well as low lying and impervious areas, such as Seocho-dong and Banpo-dong. Flood risk areas are predicted to increase by a multiple of 1.3 from 2030 to 2050. Risk assessment results generally show that human risk is relatively high in high-rise residential zones, whereas property risk is high in commercial zones. The magnitude of property damage risk for 2050 increased by 6.6% compared to 2030. The proposed flood risk assessment method provides detailed spatial results that will contribute to decision making for disaster mitigation.

Recently, Due to Climate change, extreme rainfall occurs frequently. In many preceding studies, Because of extreme hydrological events changes, it is expected that peak flood Magnitude and frequency of drainage infrastructures changes. However, at present, probability rainfall in the drainage facilities design is assumed to Stationary which are not effected from climate change and long-term fluctuation. In the future, flood control safety standard should be reconsidered about the valid viewpoint. In this paper, in order to assess impact of climate change on drainage system, Future climate change information has been extracted from RCP 8.5 Climate Change Scenario for IPCC AR5, then estimated the design rainfall for various durations at return periods. Finally, the design flood estimated through the HEC-HMS Model which is being widely used in the practices, estimated the effect of climate change on the Design Flood of Mihochen basin. The results suggested that the Design Flood increase by climate change. Due to this, the Flood risk of Mihochen basin can be identified to increase comparing the present status.

The magnitude and frequency of extreme floods are increasing owing to the effects of climate change. Therefore, multipurpose flood management techniques incorporating nature-based solutions have been introduced to mitigate the limitations of flood management and river design methods relying on existing observation data. Nature-based solutions to prepare for such extreme flooding events include ways to retreat the embankment, expand the floodplain, and reduce flood damage. To apply these technologies, adopting appropriate location selection methods based on various evaluation factors, such as flood damage reduction effects, sustainable ecological environments, river connectivity, and physical channel structure enhancements, should be prioritized. Therefore, in this study, the optimal location for implementing the multipurpose floodplain construction project was determined by selecting the location of the floodplain expansion with objectivity in the river waterfront area upstream of Daecheong Dam to downstream of Yongdam Dam. Through the final location determination, the Dongdaeje and Jeogokje sections were included in the optimal location considering both flood damage reduction and water environment improvement.

This study aims at the analysis and application of PMP(Probable Maximum Precipitation)for the determination of design flood in the river basin planning and design of major hydraulic structures. PMP was estimated by hydro-meterological method statistical method and envelope curve method. PMF(Probable Maximum Flood)was then estimated from this PMP by synthetic unit hydrograph method and chow method. From the comparison of three methods for PMP estimation of magnitude of PMP in order of statistical, hydro-metrological, envelope curve method. Among PMP results estimated by each method it is believed that the hydro-meteorological method gave the best proper value in comparison with historical maximum rainfall because of this method reflected upon all meterological factor. From the comparison of PMP with probable rainfall and flood, it was shown that estimated value by statistical method and hydro-metrological method were nearly equivalent to the value of return period 100 years and its value of envelope curve method was equivalent to return period 200 to 500 year. It was found that PMF estimated from would be more safe for the design of major hydraulic structures in the consideration.

The bridge crossing river is the one of the major factors causing backwater level rising. Furthermore, the bridges in the mountainous areas increase the flood damage in the upstream of the bridge due to the blockage by debris. In this research, the effects of debris to the magnitude of flood damage in the study river basin were simulated by using HEC-RAS and HEC-GeoRAS models. With assumption that the backwater caused by debris blocking the space between bridge piers is the only factor causing inundation, the unsteady flow simulation was carried out with various case studies. The potential inundation area with the overflow locations and volumes could be estimated as the results of simulation. However, the simulation results also reveal the limitations of inaccurate estimation of inundation area and depth. To overcome these hindrances, DEM and satellite images were applied to the simulation. By readjusting the inundation area using digital maps and satellite images and calibrating overflow volume and depth using DEM, the accuracy of simulation could be increased resulting more accurate flood damage estimation.

Suspended sediment budget in Gwangyang Bay was investigated using the data of suspended sediment concentration and vertical distribution of tidal currents at the mouth of the bay in the Yeosu Sound (Yeosu Haeman) . At the mouth of the bay suspended sediment concentration shows much higher value of approximately 17.80mg/l on the average near the bottom than the concentration near the surface where the average is 4.7mg/l. Tidal currents also show an asymmetry in magnitude between flood and ebb. Near the surface ebb is stronger than flood, while flood is stronger than ebb near the bottom. Due to the higher concentration and stronger flood current near the bottom, transport of suspended sediment near the bottom plays a major role to the sediment budget in the bay, and the bay is in net-depositional environment. The western part of the bay seems to gain the suspended sediment of approximately $5.66\times10^8g/day$, which corresponds to a sedimentation rate of about 1.15m/1,000years.

최근 30년 강수량은 20세기 초보다 124mm 증가하였으며, 지역별 변동성 역시 매우 크다. 또한 일 강수량 80mm 이상의 강한 강수의 증가가 뚜렷하고 약한 강수가 감소하는 양극화로 인하여 홍수기에 홍수피해가 증가하는 추세를 보인다. 하지만 홍수에 대비하는 기간인 홍수기는 1970년 이전에 제정된 후 개선된 적이 없어 기후변화를 반영하지 못하고 있으며, 전국적으로 동일한 홍수기를 적용하고 있기에 최근 강수량의 지역특성이 강한 점을 반영하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 20세기와 21세기 두 그룹의 통계특성을 비교하여 홍수기의 강수량 변화를 정량화하여 기후변화를 보이고 국내 18개의 다목적댐 유역에서의 강수량 변화를 통계기법을 통해 지역 특성을 확인하였다. 이후 장마와 태풍을 기준으로 한 기존의 홍수기와 extension, shift, 그리고 split 등의 방법을 적용하여 개선한 홍수기를 비교하였다. 모의 방법은 댐 운영 기본 규칙에 국내 다목적댐에 가장 많이 활용되는 일정률-일정량 방식의 Rigid ROM과 예측한 유입수문곡선의 정확도가 관건인 일정량 방식의 Technical ROM을 활용하여 방류량을 결정하였다. 홍수저감효과는 계획방류량을 기준으로 한 세 가지 지표(frequency, duration, magnitude)를 통한 비교와 하천의 계획홍수량과 댐의 200년 빈도 계획홍수량을 기준으로 한 K-water 방법을 활용하여 평가하였다. 본 연구의 결과로 20세기와 21세기 홍수기의 통계량을 비교했을 때 강수량의 평균값이 86.55mm가 증가한 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 각 댐 유역별로 비교하였을 때도 1개의 댐을 제외한 94%의 댐에서 증가 추세를 확인하였다. 추가적으로 모평균 차이를 95% 신뢰구간으로 확인한 결과 80% 이상의 범위에서 증가추세를 확인하였다. 가설검정 결과인 p-value가 최소 0.038에서 최대 0.3의 값을 가져 지역별 강수 차이 또한 유의미한 통계적 차이를 파악하였다. 홍수저감효과의 경우 2020년의 시범 유역에 대해서 15일의 extension을 적용한 홍수기가 기존의 홍수기에 비해 평균적으로 frequency는 0.002%, duration은 1.85hr, magnitude는 26.96% 정도 저감됨을 확인하였으며, flood의 횟수도 6회정도 적음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 향후 기후변화에 대응한 새로운 홍수기의 기준을 제안할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Seasonal variations of chemical constituents of estuarine water at a definite station of the tidal flat in Guang Yang inlet have been determined for two days a month. The range and mean of the annual variations are as follows:Tidal variations through a year are as follows:1. Although the tidal value of pH is almost constant during one tidal cycle, it raises abruptly 0.1-0.2 intervals of pH value during the first period of flood.2. The lower values of chlorinity, magnesium and calcium contents have been determined the nearer the slack after ebb, and slightly higher during the first period of flood tide than the last of ebb. The tidal change of calcium contents is more remarkable than of magnesium.3. The higher per cent saturation values of dissolved oxygen, sometimes higher than 100 per cent, re determined the nearer the slack after ebb.4. The total nitrogen contents, relatively poor, varies accidentally during one tidal cycle, whereas phosphate-P and silicate-Si are rich at the slack after ebb and increase proportionally to the mixing percentage of fresh water. The average values, 52.2 and 18.5 of Si/P and N/P are greater than of the normal.5. The acid soluble iron contents, lower in winter than in summer, is also varies accidentally during one tidal cycle and the magnitude of the variation is large.6. The chemical composition considered from the value of Ca/Cl or Mg/Cl of estuarine water varies according to the chlorinity even at the high chlorinity of 18-19%.
