Abstract

The objective of this study is to assess the availability of streamflow simulation using Radar-AWS Rain rate (RAR) data which is produced by KMA on real-time. Chuncheon dam upstream basin is selected as study area and total area is 4859.73 . Mean Areal Precipitation (MAP) using AWS and RAR are calculated on 5 subbasin. The correlationship of hourly MAPs between AWS and RAR is weak on ungauged subbasins but that is relatively high on gauged ones. We evaluated the simulated discharge using the MAPs derived from two data types during flood season from 2006 to 2009. The simulated discharges using AWS on Chuncheon dam (gauged basin) are well fitted with measured ones. In some cases, however, discharges using AWS on Hwacheon dam and Pyeonghwa dam with some ungauged subbasins are overestimated on the other hand, ones using RAR in the same case are well fitted with measured ones. The hourly RAR data is useful for the real-time river forecast on the ungauged basin in view of the results.
