삼척군에 위치하는 환선굴 주변의 자연관경증에서 특히 동굴 형성에 영향을 주는 기후와 수문환경에 대하여 조사하여 그 특징을 파악하고자 하는 것이다. 먼저 삼척지방의 일반적인 지리적 특징을 살펴보면 대략 북위 37.5$^{\circ}$부근에 위치하고 있으며 평균 해발고도가 650m로 비교적 고지에 위치하고 있어서 최한월(1월) 평균기온이 -4$^{\circ}C$ 정도로 겨울철에는 한냉한 냉대기후(Dwb)에 해당한다. 그러나 지형과 해류의 영향으로 동위도상의 서해안 지역보다 온난하여 겨울철에도 온난한 온대습윤기후(CFa) 지역에 포함된다. 삼척군의 서쪽에 남북 방향으로 길게 발달한 태백산맥은 겨울철에 한냉한 북서계절풍을 차단해 주고 있으며 또한 푄현상으로 삼척지방에 승온현상을 일으키기도 한다.(중략)

한겨울 추위가 매섭다. 지구온난화로 겨울이 조금 따뜻하려나 했는데, 오히려 '소빙하기'라고, 이렇게 추운 겨울을 건강하게 이겨내기 위해서는 뭘 먹어야 할까? 우리 가족들의 건강을 지켜줄 겨울철 먹거리를 알아보자.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the spatio-temporal patterns of changes in seasonal extreme temperature events in the Republic of Korea based on daily maximum and minimum temperature data sets observed at 61 weather stations for the recent 40 year period (1973~2012). According to analysis of regional average data, in spring increases of warm days are most distinct, while in summer reductions of cool nights and increases of warm nights are most noticeable. The similar patterns to those in summer are observed in fall, while in winter reductions of cool days and nights are notable. Regardless of the magnitude of urbanization, changes in nighttime extreme temperature events prevail in transitional periods between seasons, while those in daytime extreme temperature events do so only in particular months. In contrast, cool days in spring and summer, warm days in summer and warm nights in winter do not show any statistically-significant changes at most of stations. The sensitivity of seasonal extreme temperature events to increases of seasonal average extreme temperature is greatest in the case of warm days ($+6.3days/^{\circ}C$) and cool nights ($-6.2days/^{\circ}C$) in spring, warm nights ($+10.4days/^{\circ}C$) and days ($+9.5days/^{\circ}C$) in summer, warm days ($+7.7days/^{\circ}C$) in fall, and cool nights ($-4.7/^{\circ}C$) in winter, respectively. These results indicate that changes in seasonal extreme temperature events and their sensitivity to changes in seasonal climate means under a warmer climate are occurring with seasonally and diurnally asymmetric magnitudes in Korea due to complex climate feedbacks.

최근 지구온난화의 영향으로 겨울철 한파를 야기하는 일이 잦아지고 있다. 우리나라에도 그 영향으로 매년 겨울 한파가 지속되고 있다. 그러므로 겨울철 적설량을 기록하고 갑작스러운 재난에 대비하는 것은 지구온난화의 또 다른 숙제가 되었다. 우리나라는 전통적으로 폭설 피해가 크지 않았기 때문에 적설관측소의 수가 강우관측소에 비해 현저히 적다. 그리하여 추가적인 적설관측소의 설치가 필요하다고 판단되지만, 이에 앞서 우리나라의 현재 적설관측소의 분포현황을 분석하였다. 1월, 2월, 12월의 최대 최심신적설량과 관측소 고도자료를 K-평균 알고리즘의 4개의 변수로 사용하였으며, 전국에서 총 94개의 적설관측소를 자료보유기간으로 분류하여 군집분석을 수행하였다. 군집분석 결과 서해안지역, 태백 소백산맥을 따라 존재하는 내륙산악지역, 경상도와 남해안 그리고 제주도지역, 울릉도와 대관령으로 군집이 형성되었다. 또한, 제주도의 적설관측소가 해안가 위주로 설치되어있어, 비교적 눈이 많이 오는 한라산 산간지역에 추가적인 적설관측소 설치가 고려되어야 할 것이다.

We examined the characteristics of atmospheric circulation over East Asia to find the causes of the unusual warm winter 2006/2007 in Korea. During that time, the anomalous atmospheric conditions are characterized by the weakening of the Siberian High and the Aleutian Low, the enhancement of low-level south easterlies near Korea, and the weakening of upper-level jet to the south of Japan. These patterns are considerably associated with the atmospheric condition of non-blocking year over the Siberia (60-140E). In addition, both El $Ni\widetilde{n}o$ and Arctic Oscillation (AO) are likely to induce those patterns. Therefore, it is suggested that the anomalous atmospheric states related to non-blocking flow, El $Ni\widetilde{n}o$, and the positive phase of AO are responsible for the warmest winter season in 2006/2007 for the period of 1958/1959-2006/2007.

This study aims to identify the warm and cold periods(WP, CP) of November appeared in the daily normals of daily minimum temperature of Seoul for 1941~1970 and 1971~2000 and to investigate synoptic characteristics of the temperature changes of WP and CP. The WP temperatures are increased clearly(p value 0.000), the CP temperatures are also warming but not significant statistically. In WP, there are not apparent trends corresponding the warming of WP temperature, in the Siberian High, Sea Level Pressure(SLP), 925hPa surface wind(U925, V925) around the Korean peninsula. In high period(1972~1979) of WP temperature, there are positive SLP anomaly and anomalous anticyclonic circulation pattern of 925hPa wind field over the Korean peninsula then the winter monsoon is weakened and the WP temperature is ascending. In CP, the Siberian high are weakening, the Hokkaido eastern low are strengthening and the westerlies(U925) over the Korean Peninsula are enlarging. So CP temperature are suppressed in rising trend or shows weak descent.

기압 분포의 공간 구조를 이해하고, 그것의 변동을 살펴보는 것은 풍속의 경향을 파악하는 것은 물론, 장기적인 측면에서는 기후변화를 예측하기 위한 기본 과정이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 장기간에 걸쳐 공간적으로 연속적인 관찰이 가능한 20CR(20th Century Reanalysis) 원격탐사 재분석 자료의 지오포텐셜(geopotential) 값을 활용하여 동아시아 지역 기압의 공간 분포를 살펴보았다. 그 결과 특정 범위 내에서 계산되는 기압의 편차 값과 해당 범위를 정의하는 수평 거리 사이의 관계(변동도; variogram)가 멱함수를 따르는 것을 확인하였다. 흥미로운 점은 지난 반세기 동안 멱함수의 계수 값이 풍속과 동일한 패턴으로 변화하는 반면, 지수 값 (프랙탈 차원)은 일정하게 유지되고 있다는 사실이다. 또한, 2000년 이후로는 계절 별로 한랭한 기단 (겨울철)과 온난한 기단 (여름철)이 번갈아가며 동아시아 지역으로 세력을 확장하는 경향을 보였으며, 그로인해 전반적인 기압의 편차가 증가하였다.

In this study, changes in precipitation across South Korea during snow seasons (November-April) and their potential are examined. Current (1973/74-2006/07) and future (2081-2100) time series of snow indices including snow season, snow-to-precipitation ratio, and snow impossible day are extracted from observed snow and precipitation data for 61 weather stations as well as observed and modeled daily temperature data. Analyses of linear trends reveal that snow seasons have shortened by 3-13 days/decade; that the snow-to-precipitation ratio (the percentage of snow days relative to precipitation days) has decreased by 4-8 %/decade. These changes are associated with pronounced formations of a positive pressure anomaly core over East Asia during the positive Arctic Oscillation winter years since the late 1980s. A snow-temperature statistical model demonstrates that the warming due to the positive core winter intensifies changes from snow to rain at the rate of $4.7cm/^{\circ}C$. The high pressure anomaly pattern has also contributed to decreases of air-sea thermal gradient which are associated with the reduction of snow could formation. Modeled data predict that a fingerprint of wintertime global warming causing changes from snow to rain will continue to be observed over the 21st century.

Seasonal and secular variations of water temperature in Chungmu port were investigated with the data obtained from the Technical Reports(1976~1983) of Hydrographic Office. Monthly and annual range of water temperature were 2 to 8$^{\circ}C$ and 18 to 21$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The coefficients of variance of monthly mean water temperature were 0.015(February, 1976) to 0.208(December, 1980) and their values were smaller in the summer season than in the winter season. The result of harmonic analysis for investigating the seasonal variation of water temperature was T(t)=15.66+8.06 cos(10$^{\circ}$t-233.5)+0.92 cos(20$^{\circ}$t-216). The periods of secular variation were about 2 years and 3 years.
