Abstract

A climate change-driven increased hydrological variability has been widely acknowledged over the past decades. In this regards, rainfall simulation techniques are being applied in many countries to consider the increased variability. This study proposed a Homogeneous Hidden Markov Chain(HMM) designed to recognize rather complex patterns of rainfall with discrete hidden states and underlying distribution characteristics via mixture probability density function. The proposed approach was applied to Seoul and Jeonju station to verify model's performance. Statistical moments(e.g. mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis) derived by daily and seasonal rainfall were compared with observation. It was found that the proposed HMM showed better performance in terms of reproducing underlying distribution characteristics. Especially, the HMM was much better than the existing Markov Chain model in reproducing extremes. In this regard, the proposed HMM could be used to evaluate a long-term runoff and design flood as inputs.

최근 기후변화 영향으로 인해 수문변동성이 크게 증가되고 있으며 이러한 변동성을 고려하기 위한 방안으로서 강수량 모의발생 기법에 대한 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 복잡한 강수발생 패턴을 인지하고 강수량의 다양한 분포특성을 고려할 수 있는 혼합분포를 이용한 동질성 Hidden Markov Chain(HMM) 모형을 제안하였다. HMM 모형의 개선효과를 검증하기 위해서 기존 Markov Chain 모형과 비교 하였으며 서울관측소 및 전주관측소를 대상으로 연구를 진행하였다. 계절강수량 및 일강수량 등 다양한 시간규모에서 모형의 적합성을 평가하기 위해서 천이확률, 평균, 분산, 왜곡도 및 첨예도 등을 비교하였으며 HMM 모형이 기존 Markov Chain 모형에 비해서 개선된 모의능력을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히, HMM 모형은 극치강수량을 재현하는데 있어서 기존 Markov Chain 모형에 비해서 월등한 모의능력을 보여주었다. 이러한 점에서 장기유출량 및 확률홍수량 등을 산정하기 위한 입력자료로 활용이 충분히 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
