Abstract

기후 변화는 한반도 가뭄 특성에 영향을 미칠 것으로 예측되지만 불확실성이 존재한다. 이에, 본 연구는 지면 모델링 시스템 중 하나인 WRF-Hydro 모형에 기후변화와 토지이용 시나리오를 이용하여 한반도 미래 가뭄을 예측하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 기후 변화 자료는 RCP2.6과 RCP8.5 시나리오, 지표면 변화 자료는 공통사회경제경로(Shared Socio-economic Pathway, SSP) 시나리오를 사용하였다. 임계수준 방법을 적용하여 유출량과 순 일차 생산량(Net Primary Productivity, NPP)값을 이용한 미래 수문학적 가뭄과 생태학적 가뭄을 정의하였고, 각 시나리오 별 가뭄의 기간과 강도의 특성을 평가하였다. 수문학적 가뭄 기간은 RCP2.6-SSP2 가까운 미래(2031-2050)와 RCP8.5-SSP2 먼 미래(2080-2099) 시나리오에서, 생태학적 가뭄 기간은 RCP2.6-SSP2 먼 미래와 RCP8.5-SSP2 가까운 미래에서 긴 가뭄 기간을 보였다. 가뭄 강도는 가뭄 기간과 다르게, 두 가뭄 모두 RCP2.6-SSP2 먼 미래와 RCP8.5-SSP2 가까운 미래에서 큰 강도를 보였다. 수문학적 가뭄의 경우 RCP2.6-SSP2 먼 미래가 가장 심도가 크고 임계수준의 크기의 영향을 많이 받았다. 그러나 생태학적 가뭄 심도는 RCP2.6-SSP2 가까운 미래와 RCP2.6-SSP2 먼 미래에서 큰 심도를 보이고, 임계 수준에 따른 심도 크기의 시나리오 별 차이는 작았다. 이 연구는 기후변화와 토지이용변화에 따른 한반도 미래 수문학적 및 생태학적 가뭄 특성을 이해하고 관리하는데 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

It is uncertain how global climate change will influence future drought characteristics over the Korean peninsula. This study aims to project the future droughts using climate change and land use change scenarios over the Korean peninsula with the land surface modeling system, i.e., Weather Research and Forecasting Model Hydrological modeling system (WRF-Hydro). The Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) 2.6 and 8.5 are used as future climate scenarios and the Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSPs), specifically SSP2, is adopted for the land use scenario. The using Threshold Level Method (TLM), we identify future hydrological and ecological drought events with runoff and Net Primary Productivity (NPP), respectively, and assess drought characteristics of durations and intensities in different scenarios. Results show that the duration of drought is longer over RCP2.6-SSP2 for near future (2031-2050) and RCP8.5-SSP2 (2080-2099) for the far future for hydrological drought. On the other hand, RCP2.6-SSP2 for the far future and RCP8.5-SSP2 for the near future show longer duration for ecological drought. In addition, the drought intensities in both hydrological and ecological drought show different characteristics with the drought duration. The intensity of the hydrological droughts was greatly affected by threshold level methods and RCP2.6-SSP2 for far future shows the severest intensity. However, for ecological drought, the difference of the intensity among the threshold level is not significant and RCP2.6-SSP2 for near future and RCP2.6-SSP2 for near future show the severest intensity. This study suggests a possible future drought characteristics is in the Korea peninsula using combined climate and land use changes, which will help the community to understand and manage the future drought risks.
