Abstract

While global solar radiation is an essential input variable in crop models, the observation stations are relatively sparse compared with other meteorological elements. Instead of using measured solar radiation, the Angstrom-Prescott model estimates have been widely used. Monthly data for solar radiation and sunshine duration are a convenient basis for deriving Angstrom-Prescott coefficients (a, b), but it is uncertain whether daily solar radiation could be estimated with a sufficient accuracy by the monthly data - derived coefficients. We derived the Angstrom-Prescott coefficients from the 25 years observed global solar radiation and sunshine duration data at 18 locations across South Korea. In order to figure out any improvements in estimating daily solar radiation by replacing monthly data with daily data, the coefficients (a, b) for each month were derived separately from daily data and monthly data. Local coefficients for eight validation sites were extracted from the spatially interpolated maps of the coefficients and used to estimate daily solar radiation from September 2008 to August 2009 when, pyranometers were operated at the same sites for validation purpose. Comparison with the measured radiation showed a better performance of the daily data - derived coefficients in estimating daily global solar radiation than the monthly data - derived coefficients, showing 9.3% decrease in the root mean square error (RMSE).

작물모형의 필수 입력자료인 일간 누적일사량은 다른 기상요소들에 비해 관측밀도가 낮아 대안으로서 일조 시간을 기반으로 한 Angstrom-Prescott 모형 추정값이 널리 사용되고 있다. 추정의 간편성 때문에 월 단위 일사량 및 일조시간 자료가 모형의 계수(Angstrom-Prescott coefficients, 이하 A-P 계수) 도출에 사용되고 있지만 작물생육모형에서 요구하는 일간 일사량을 추정하는 데는 한계가 있다. A-P 계수 도출에 월 단위 자료 대신 일 단위 자료를 사용함으로써 기대되는 개선효과를 판정하기 위해 일사량과 일조시간을 동시에 관측하는 국내 18개 기상대의 25년 간(1983~2007) 일 단위 및 월 단위 자료로부터 A-P 계수를 각각 도출하였다. 이 계수들의 공간분포로부터 일사 미관측 기상대 8곳의 A-P 계수를 추출하고 지점별 일 단위 및 월 단위 계수를 실측 일조시간자료에 적용하여 2008년 9월부터 2009년 8월까지 일사량을 일별로 추정하였다. 같은 기간 중 이들 일사 미관측기상대에 검증용 일사계를 설치하여 얻은 실측 일사량자료와 비교한 결과 일 단위자료 기반의 추정오차가 월 단위자료 기반 오차에 비해 평균 9.3% 적었다.
