Abstract

Due to the frequent emergence of global abnormal climates, related studies on meteorological change is being actively proceed. However, the research on trend analysis using weather data accumulated over a long period of time was insufficient. In this study, the trend of temperature time series data accumulated from automated surface observing system (ASOS) for 40 years was analyzed by using a non-parametric analysis method. As a result of the Mann-Kendall test on the annual average temperature and seasonal average temperature time series data in South Korea, it has shown that an upward trend exists. In addition, the result of calculating the Sen's slope, which can determine the degree of tendency before and after the searched change point by applying the Pettitt test, recent data after the fluctuation point confirmed that the tendency of temperature rise was even greater.

범지구적 이상기후의 잦은 출현으로 기상 변화에 대한 관련 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있지만, 장기간 축적된 기상자료를 이용한 경향성 분석 연구는 부족하였다. 본 연구에서는 비모수적 분석방법을 이용해 40년간 종관기상관측장비(ASOS)로 부터 축적된 기온 시계열 자료의 경향성을 분석하였다. 남한지역의 연평균 기온과 계절별 평균기온 시계열 자료에 대한 Mann-Kendall 검정 결과 상승 경향성이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 Pettitt 검정을 적용해 탐색된 변동점을 전후로 경향성의 정도를 파악할 수 있는 Sen's slope를 계산한 결과, 변동점 이후의 최근 자료에서 기온의 상승 경향성이 더욱 큰 것을 확인하였다.
