Analysis of runoff in the Han River basin by SSARR model considering agricultural water

摘要

This study begins to address the need for a runoff model that is able to simulate runoffs at control points in a dam’s upper and lower stream during the seasons of high and low water levels. We need to establish a synthetic management plan on water resources considering the runoff at the upper and lower streams to effectively manage the limited water resources in Korea. For this reason, we classified the Han River Basin into 24 sub-basins and arranged a great amount of rainfall data using 151 rainfall observation stations so as to prepare for the spatial distribution of precipitation. We chose several dams as subjects for this study, which includes the Chungju Regulating Reservoir, Soyang, Chungju, Hoengseong, Hwacheon, Chuncheon, Euiam, Cheongpyeong, and Paldang Dams as main controlling points. Also, we made up input data of this model, selecting the Streamflow Synthesis and Reservoir Regulation (SSARR) model as a runoff model in the Han River Basin. We performed a sensitivity analysis of parameters using hydrological data from the year 2002. And as a result, the findings of this study showed that, among many parameters related to the basin runoff, the following have revealed greater sensitivity than any other parameters: soil moisture index-runoff percent, baseflow infiltration index-baseflow percent, and surface-subsurface separation. On the basis of the above sensitivity analysis, we have used hydrological data between 2001 and 2002 when drafts and floods broke out in Korea to verify and calibrate the parameters of the SSARR model. Furthermore, we verified and calibrated the 2000 data using corrected parameters and performed an analysis of annual water balance in the Han River Basin from 1996 to 2005 considering agricultural water.
