Abstract

Effective air-drying days for four seasons and districts were calculated from average monthly temperature, relative humidity and wind speed records for 24 districts in Korea and air-drying calendars were prepared. And these districts were divided into zones of effective air-drying days. These results were as follows. 1. Effective air-drying days for four seasons were 20 to 23 days in springtime, 30 days in summertime, 21 to 26 days in autumntime, and 8 to 17 days in wintertime. 2. Effective air-drying days variated from district to district and was 237 days, the shortest period, in Ch'unch$\breve{o}$n, and was 288 days, the longest period, in-S$\breve{o}$gwipo. 3. Effective air-drying days were primarilly related to the difference in temperature from month to month, and secondarily, especially in September, were related to the differences in relative humidity, and were not related to wind speed. 4. South Korea was divided into 4 zones of effective air-drying days and these zones had it little difference compared with meteorological zones.
