[PDF][PDF] Determining proper threshold levels for hydrological drought analysis based on independent tests

Abstract
Hydrological drought is directly associated with lack of available water in rivers, reservoirs, and groundwater. It is important to analyze hydrological drought for efficient water resource management because most of rainfall is concentrated in wet seasons and water supply is highly dependent on dams and reservoirs in South Korea. Generally, a threshold level method is useful for defining hydrological droughts. However, this method causes interdependent problems between drought events which result in skewed results in further statistical analysis. Therefore, it is necessary to determine a proper threshold level to represent regional drought characteristics. In this study, applying 50~ 99 percentiles of daily flow-duration curve, hydrological drought events were extracted, and independence tests were conducted for 12 watersheds. The Poisson independence test showed that 87~ 99 percentiles were available for most stations except for Yeoju and Pyeongtaek. The generalized Pareto independence test showed that 80~ 90 percentiles were the most common. Mean excess plot showed that 80~ 90 percentiles were the most common. Therefore, the common ranges of the three independent tests were determined for each station and proper threshold levels were recommended for large river basins; 70~ 76 percentiles for the Han River basin, 87~ 91 percentiles for the Nakdong River basin, 86~ 98 percentiles for the Geum River basin, and 85~ 87 percentiles for the Youngsan and Seomjin River basin.
