The Holocene Hypsithermal Interval(or climatic optimum) was the warmest post-glacial period: temperatures rose to as much as $1-4^{\circ}C$ above present temperatures. We hypothesize that southern plants expanded northward and upward during the Hypsithermal Interval. The Hypsithermal relict populations are defined as populations which distribute mainly in Is. Cheju and Southern subregions and have populations of short-distance dispersion separated by more than 100 km from the nearest distribution. The Hypsithermal relict species were identified and their distributions were mapped based on botanical floras and checklist, herbaria specimens, ecological studies, and field surveys of selected species. Evaluation of the hypothesis was based on reviews of published pollen stratigraphic and paleoecological studies. The results showed that the Holocene Hypsithermal relicts such as Corylopsis coreana Uyeki, Carpinus turczaninowii Hance, Stewartia koreana Nakai ex Rehder were expanded northward during the Holocene Hypsithermal Interval.

The aim of this research is to infer paleovegetation and paleoclimate in the Hwajeon archeological site of Gwangju city during mid-Holocene through the analysis of pollen, waterlogged woods, and sediments. Between 8200 ~ 6800 years ago, relatively dry climate resulted in a weakened dominance of oak and high diversity of tree genus. During the Holocene climatic optimum period (6800 ~ 5900 years ago), oak forests expanded while wetland areas diminished as warm/humid climate intensified. Between 5900 ~ 4700 years ago, the entire forest area as well as oak climax forests was reduced due to a relatively cool/dry climate. However at the end of this period, oak forests expanded since a favorable climate condition temporarily resumed. Lastly, between 4700 ~ 3300 years ago, oaks dominated but alders were weakened. The density of forest was low because of a relatively dry climate in this period.

Three sediment cores from two different locations (UJ-03 and UJ-12 cores of valley sediment in Paju area, and CL-4 core of wetland sediment in Cheollipo area) along the western Korean Peninsula yield crucial information on the timing and spatial pattern of century-scale climate changes and subsequent surficial responses during the Holocene. In Paju area, the sediments included abundant coarse-grained sediment (coarse sands and pebbles) from 7100 to 5000 cal. yrBP, total organic carbon (TOC) values showed a marked increase from 5000 to 2200 cal. yrBP, several intermittent depositional layers were observed from 2200 cal. yrBP. In Cheollipo area, lake environment developed from 7360 to 5000 cal. yrBP, the deposition of organic materials increased from 5000 to 2600 cal. yrBP, peatland formed from 2600 cal. yrBP. The two patterns of surficial responses to the climate changes through the Holocene are different to each other. This might be due to the dissimilarity in geomorphic conditions. However, the approximate simultaneity of environmental changes in two areas shows that they both can be correlated to the major climate changes. Two areas which have undergone significant changes indicated that the hydrological factors including precipitation and strength of water flow were most responsible for the landscape and geomorphic evolutions. Although the upwards trend in relative sea-level also played a primary role for environmental changes in coastal area (Cheollipo area), detailed studies have still to be undertaken.

Sea level fluctuations during the Holocene reconstructed by the results of age dating, microfossils researches and sedimentary facies from coastal alluvial plains contain the valuable informations on climatic changes. The sea level during 'maximum phase of transgression' during 6,000~5,000 yr BP was slightly higher than the present by approximately 0.8~1.0 m and the summer temperature conditions seemed to be higher than those of the present by 2~3℃ in the Central Europe when the period of 'Climatic Optimum' might be dominant. The sea level in Korean Peninsula was assumed by 0.8~1.0 m higher at that time compared to the present and climate seemed to be warmer. At 2,000~1,800 yr BP in Korean Peninsula, the sea level reached the higher stand than the present by approximately 1.1~1.3 m and the climatic conditions might be warm similar to the period of 'Climatic Optimum'. Although the temperature in the Central Europe during the period of 'Subboreal' was about 2~3℃ cooler, it is supposed that the sea level in Korean Peninsula was relatively higher than the present. The sea level at 2,300 yr BP might be similar to that of the present, which was the lowest level since the mid-Holocene. From the fact, climatic environment during the cold period might not be reflected exactly in the sea level.

최근 지구온난화 및 기후변화로 인해 단시간에 높은 강우강도를 가지고 발생하는 집중호우 홍수 등의 위험기상으로 인한 인명 및 재산피해가 빈번하게 발생하고 있어 초단기 및 단기 강수 예측에 대한 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 단기 강수예측모델은 다양한 관측자료의 사용과 자료동화기법의 개발로 예측능력이 크게 향상되었지만 수치모델의 고유특성인 스핀업(spin-up) 문제로 1~6시간까지 강수예측성능에 한계를 보인다. 반면 초단기 강수예측모델은 레이더기반으로 외삽법을 이용하여 1~3시간까지 높은 정확도의 강수예측을 하지만 강수에코의 생성 소멸의 물리과정을 포함하지 않아 3시간 이후의 정확도가 낮다. 이러한 단기 및 초단기 강수예측모델의 장점을 반영하여 최적 강수예측 자료 생산을 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 초단기 및 단기 강수예측모델의 예측성능을 평가하였으며 모델의 예측성능 기반의 최적 강수자료 병합기법을 개발하였다. 향후 최적 강수예측 자료 생산체계가 구축되면 수문관련 유관기관에서 하천관리에 사용하는 유량예측모델에 시 공간적 고해상도의 강수예측정보를 제공하여 수문분야의 유량예측 정확도 행상에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

최근 이상기상현상과 기후변화로 인하여 국지적인 집중호우의 빈도 및 규모가 증가하고 있으며, 이로 인한 돌발 홍수피해가 증가하고 있다. 이러한 홍수 피해를 줄이기 위해서는 정확도가 우수한 초단시간(1~2시간 이내) 예측 강우량 정보가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 집중호우에 대한 초단시간예보 및 실황 예측을 위해 시공간적으로 고해상도 자료를 제공할 수 있는 기상레이더 강우자료와 위성영상 자료를 결합하여 초단기 강수 예측기법 개발 연구를 수행하였다. 또한 기상레이더 강우량은 지상강우관측에 비해 정확성이 낮고, 많은 불확실성을 포함하고 있으므로, 위성영상에서 산출되는 강우자료와 결합하여 강우추정의 정확도를 개선하고자 하였다. 레이더 볼륨자료에서 반사도 자료를 추출하여, 1.5km CAPPI(Constant Altitude Plan Position Indicator) 자료를 생성하고, 반사도 CAPPI 자료의 패턴 상관분석을 통하여 강우시스템의 최적 이동벡터를 산출하였다. 또한 이동벡터를 고려하여 시공간적으로 외삽하여 강우이동 예측 모델을 개발하고, 초기자료로 레이더와 천리안 위성(Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite, COMS) 영상자료에서 생성되는 강우자료를 결합한 강수장 자료를 이용하여 강수 예측장을 생성하였다. 레이더-위성 결합 초단기 강우예측 모델의 정확성 검증을 위하여 2014년 8월 25일 부산 및 영남 지역에 발생한 집중호우 사례에 대하여 지상기상자동관측시스템(Automatic Weather System, AWS) 강우 측정 결과를 비교 분석 하였으며, 그 적용 가능성을 검증하였다. 초단기 강우예측 분석 결과 지상강우자료와의 오차가 발생하나, 추후 여러 통계적 후처리 과정을 통하여 그 성능이 개선될 것으로 보이며, 보다 정확한 강우량 예측을 위해서는 지속적인 알고리즘 개선 및 모형의 검 보정이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Planting date shift is one of the means of adapting to climate change in Kimchi Cabbage growers in major production areas in Korea. This study suggests a method to estimate the potential yield of Kimchi Cabbage based on daily temperature accumulation during the growth period from planting to maturity which is determined by a plant phenology model tuned to Kimchi Cabbage. The phenology model converts any changes in the thermal condition caused by the planting date shift into the heat unit accumulation during the growth period, which can be calculated from daily temperatures. The physiological maturity is estimated by applying this model to a variable development rate function depending either on growth or heading stage. The cabbage yield prediction model (Ahn et al., 2014) calculates the potential yield of summer cabbage by accumulating daily heat units for the growth period. We combined these two models and applied to the 1km resolution climate scenario (2000-2100) based on RCP8.5 for South Korea. Potential yields in the current normal year (2001-2010) and the future normal year (2011-2040, 2041-2070, and 2071-2100) were estimated for each grid cell with the planting dates of July 1, August 1, September 1, and October 1. Based on the results, we divided the whole South Korea into 810 watersheds, and devised a three - dimensional evaluation chart of the time - space - yield that enables the user to easily find the optimal planting date for a given watershed. This method is expected to be useful not only for exploring future new cultivation sites but also for developing cropping systems capable of adaptation to climate change without changing varieties in existing production areas.

육계 사양가의 목적은 최소가능비용으로 육계의 만족스런 성장을 이끌어 내는데 있다. 이런 만족스런 성장을 이루기 위해서는 온도, 환기, 습도관리가 중요하나 특히 우리나라처럼 혹한, 혹서기 기후를 가진 지역에서는 환기가 다른 어떤 요인보다 더 중요하다. 일반 사양가에서는 혹한기 온도에 치중하다보면 습도가 높아지게 되고 적정습도유지에 신경을 쓰다보면 온도가 문제가 되는데 이런 경우에 우리는 환기관리의 중요성을 실감케 된다. 환기관리는 단순히 공기교체나 산소공급만을 의미하는 것이 아니라 최적의 환기관리를 통해 질병발생율을 최소화하여 생산성 극대화를 이루도록 하는데 있다.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of future climate change on growing period and temperature in different rice maturity types as global warming progressed, where Odaebyeo, Hwaseongbyeo, Ilpumbyeo were used as a representative cultivar of early, medium, and medium-late rice maturity type, respectively, and A1B scenario was applied to weather data for future climate change at 57 sites in Korea. When cropping season was not adjusted to climate change, entire growing period and growing temperature were shorten and risen, respectively, as global warming progressed. On the other side, when cropping season was adjusted to climate change, growing period and temperature after heading date were not changed in contrast to growing period and growing temperature before heading which were more seriously shortened and risen as global warming progressed than in not adjusted cropping season. It is supposed that adjusting cropping season to climate change can alleviate rice yield reduction and quality deterioration to some degree by improving growing temperature condition during grain-filling period, but also still have a limit such as seriously shortened growing period indicating that there need to develope actively new rice cultivation methods and varieties for future climate change.
