In this study, we classify the 1000 hPa geopotential height fields around the Korean peninsula through the Kmeans cluster analysis and investigate the occurrence characteristics of each cluster pattern. The 11 clusters are identified as the typical pressure patterns, applying the pattern correlation as a similarity among clusters and the criterion of cluster similarity 0.8, of which three pressure patterns are associated with the extension of Siberia air mass, other three with the latitudes of the longest symmetry axis of North Pacific highs, two with the trough largely under the air mass of Siberia or North Pacific, and the remaining three, the migratory high patterns generally occurring in spring and autumn, are disjointed according to the direction of the longest symmetry axis of highs. The occurrence rate of air masses affecting the Korean peninsula, estimated from the number of occurrence days of 11 pressure patterns, is 55.4% Siberian, 29.3% North Pacific, 12.8% Yangtze-River, 2.5% Okhotsk sea and 68.2% of all these is the continental air masses. The wintertime pressure patterns around the Korean peninsula are nearly contrary to those in summertime, each dominated by the highs extended from the stationary air masses over the Central Siberia and the North Pacific ocean. The migratory highs occur largely in spring and autumn while transferring from the wintertime patterns to summertime patterns, or vice versa. Recently, the occurrence frequency of the highs extended from the North Pacific is on the decrease and while the wintertime pressure patterns occur frequently in spring and autumn, the occurrence frequency of the pressure patterns with trough is on the increase and the migratory highs occur in nearly all seasons.

본 연구는 최근 인구와 산업체가 급증하고 있는 김해시를 대상으로 김해시.군을 통합한 1996년 이후부터 2002년까지 김해시 지상오존농도의 변화경향과 고농도 오존일에 대한 사례 연구결과 다음과 같다. 김해시 대기오염농도의 시계열변화는 증가추세가 뚜렷하였으며, 최근 대기환경기준이 강화되면서 환경지정기준을 초과하기도 하였다. 계절별 오존농도의 일변화는 사계절 가운데 봄철이 가장 농도가 높게 나타났으며 매년 증가하는 농도폭도 가장 크게 나타났다. 이는 여름철의 경우 태양고도가 높고 단위시간당 일사량은 많으나, 장마와 같은 운량 증가로 인한 일사량의 감소되거나, 기온이 상승할 경우 해안으로부터 해풍이 증가하여 여름보다는 봄철에 더 높은 농도를 나타낸 것으로 생각되며, 인구와 자동차 등의 증가로 인한 배출량이 증가한 것도 크게 영향을 미친 것으로 생각된다. 연구기간동안 60 ppb 이상의 고농도 오존일의 총 발생빈도는 237일로 나타났으며, 매년 발생빈도가 증가하고 있으며, 대기환경기준 100 ppb/hr를 초과한 날도 8일이나 되었는데, 1999년이 4일 발생하여 오존에 의한 대기오염규제지역으로 선정되었는데, 고농도 오존일은 지난 1997년 이후 매년 증가하고 있으며 겨울을 제외한 전 월에 발생하는 특징을 나타내어 오존의 저감을 위한 실천 계획 수립뿐 아니라 고농도 오존일에 대한 집중적인 연구와 빠른 시간 내에 오존의 예.경보제를 도입 운영하는 것이 김해시민의 건강과 복지에 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다. 고농도 오존일에 대한 사례일 첫 번째인 5월 1일은 일 최고 기온은 그리 높은 상태는 아니었지만 광범위한 이동성 고기압에 의해 대기가 정체하고 바람이 약한 시점에 광화학반응에 의한 오존생성이 용이하였고 해안가의 높은 농도의 오존이 수송되어 고농도 오존이 발생하였으며, 사례 2의 경우 대륙에서 이동해 오는 이동성 고기압의 영향으로 대기는 안정하고 바람이 약하여 기온이 급상승하였으며, 광화학반응에 의한 오존 생성이 용이하였다. 사례 3의 경우는 남북으로 놓여 있는 대규모 기압계 사이에 안상부 형태의 대상고기압이 놓여 대기는 매우 안정하고 바람이 약하며 때때로 기압계에 의한 바람이 불 경우 다소 강한 바람이 불어 일사량이 많은 기압계에서 광화학반응과 수소에 의한 오존생성이 용이하여 고농도 오존을 발생하였다.

This study aimed to analyze the characteristic of the distribution of minimum temperature during January in the central region of South Korea and to investigate causes for the occurrence of extreme minimum temperature in Cheorwon. January temperature distribution data which were collected from 25 weather stations in central area from 1991 to 2010 were investigated, and the difference of temperature between Cheorwon and the other stations in central region, such as Chuncheon, Hongcheon, Bonghwa, Daegwallyoung, Wonju and Jecheon were analyzed by the type of atmospheric pressure system. Daily mean temperature and mean of daily minimum temperature appear to be low at Cheorwon and at the sites in high altitudes, but the frequency of extreme cold wave such as below $-15^{\circ}C$ is also noticeable in Cheorwon. When the Siberian High has expanded and migratory anticyclone has moved onto the north of the Korean Peninsula, the temperature at Cheorwon is relatively low. Furthermore it shows a lesser difference between Cheorwon and the compared stations when the migratory anticyclone affected the area, even at basin like Bonghwa, Jecheon more lower than Cheorwon.

The purpose of this study is to identify distributional characteristics of climatic elements and to analyze synoptic characteristics on the pressure fields for spring droughts in Korea. In the distributions of minimum temperature during the spring droughts, positive anomalies and negative anomalies are mixed up, but in March the negative anomaly areas are widely distributed in Korea. It implies that the droughts of March have more frequent occurrences of the west-high, east-low pressure patterns. In the maximum air temperatures, the positive anomalies appear in Korea. It indicates that the spring droughts have rain days, cloud amount and humidities less than normal. As a result, the amount of evaporation is increased in Korea. In the pressure anomaly of surface pressure fields, the positive anomalies appear in the west, negative anomalies in the east in March, but in May the positive anomalies appeared zonally around the Korean peninsula. It indicates that March droughts have more frequent occurrences of the west-high. east-low patterns, but in May the Korean Peninsula has more frequent recurrences of the migratory anticyclone patterns. The height anomaly patterns of 500hPa pressure surface in spring droughts are similarly shown to those of surface fields. In March droughts, the positive height anomalies appear in the west, the negative height anomalies in the east, but in April the negative height anomaly areas are extended to the west part. In May the positive anomalies appear zonally around the Korean Peninsula, and strong positive height anomalies appear around the Kamchatka Peninsula and the sea of Okhotsk. These are the result of circulations that inhibit the eastward movement of westerlies and that has persistent anticyclone circulation patterns around the Korean Peninsula. As a result, the zonal indices of westerlies during March and April droughts are lower than normal, but higher in May. These data indicate that early spring droughts are associated with weak zonal flow, but the late spring droughts are obviously related with strong zonal flow. In addition, during early spring droughts the abnormally deep trough over the west coast of the North Pacific Ocean that accompanied the anticyclone was associated with frequent advection of air from the dry regions in the Central Asia into the Korean Peninsula. The atmospheric circulation patterns at the height of the 500hPa pressure surface in May was quite different from March and April circulation patterns. Instead of the abnormal ridge in the west and trough in the east, the circulation pattern in May was characterized by a much stronger than normal anticyclone over the Korean Peninsula. Also, the zonal indices of westerlies in May are higher than normal. The occurrences of drought in early spring, therefore, have mechanism different from those of late spring.

폭풍해일이나 파랑에 대한 보다 정확한 예측을 위해서는 해상에서의 바람장에 대한 정확한 추산이 선행되어야 하며, 특히 해상ㆍ연안재해를 유발시키는 최대풍이 주로 태풍상황에서 발생되기 때문에 이에 대한 정확한 예측이 매우 중요하다. 태풍은 일반적인 온대성 저기압이나 고기압과는 달리 그 중심부근에서 기압과 바람의 시공간적 변화가 크고 태풍의 중심이 빠른 속도로 이동되기 때문에 일반적인 기상자료 분석에 의해 산출된 바람장은 해양모델에서 요구되는 상세한 변화를 나타내지 못하고, 특히 실제 관측된 기상자료가 전무한 해상으로 태풍이 이동했을 경우에는 일기도 격자점 상의 기압으로 해상풍을 구하는 것은 큰 오차를 유발한다(해양수산부, 2001).

The purpose of this study is to identify distributional characteristics of autumn droughts in occurrence frequency and to analyze synoptic characteristics on the surface pressure fields and 500hPa levels for autumn droughts in Korea. The regional distributions of autumn droughts in occurrence frequency vary according to the monthly regional distributions of the precipitation variabilities in Korea. In september, the southwestern and the mid western parts of Korean Peninsula have high rate of drought frequency, while the eastern coast regions have low rate of it. It means that the regional distribution of the drought frequency in september indicates west-high and east-low pattern. In October, the regional distribution of the drought frequency shows low variations on regions, but in November the inland areas have low rate of drought frequency, whereas the coastal areas have high rate of it. Negative anomalies appear on the surface and 500hPa level, around Korean Peninsula during the drought period of early autumn. Positive height anomalies areas are extended from the Sea of Okhotsk to the central part of the North Pacific Ocean. It indicates that the occurrence frequencies of blocking high and ridge are high around the Sea of Okhotsk. When the pressure system, such as migratory anticyclone, stays around the Korean Peninsula, a drought occurs. In late autumn drought, the positive anomalies appear in the west and the negative anomalies in the east are generated, respectively and therefore, zonal wind is strong around Korean Peninsula. In consequence, occurrences of droughts in early autumn have a different mechanism from those of late autumn.

일반적으로 고전압의 절연물로 사용되어 지고 있는 gas를 고기압으로 압축하여 사용하므로써 그 압력에 비례하여 절연내력을 증가시킬 수 있다는 사실을 알고 있다. 따라서 전력계통에서 그 사용전압이 점차 초고전압화 됨에 따라 그에 따른 절연물로써 압축가스의 이용이 증가일로에 있으며 어떤 압축가스를 사용하므로서 높은 절연내력을 얻을 수 있음은 물론이거니와 열적으로 안정하며 전도성이 좋고 또한 교류송전선로에 이용될때는 Corona가 발생하는 가능성도 적으며 유전손실도 줄일 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 특히 이러한 압축가스는 고전압발생장치, 고전압변환장치 및 고전압용 개폐기등의 절연에 상당히 많이 사용되고 있으며 5기압 정도의 부성기체는 고전압변압기나 Compact Substation의 절연물로써 점차 이용이 증가되고 있다.

This study aimed to evaluate weather forecast accuracies of minimum temperature, maximum temperature, precipitation and sky cover by the localized land forecast areas over South Korea Average forecast accuracy score of precipitation was the lowest while that of sky cover was the highest during the study period Overall forecast accuracy scores for Gangwon-do was the lowest while those for Gyeongsangnam-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do were higher than other areas. The frequencies of perfect forecast(eight points) by seasons, were the highest during winter and the lowest during summer. pressure pattern analyses for days when forecast accuracy scores were poor, showed that precipitation forecast accuracy scores were lower due to the movement of the stationary fronts during summers. When continental polar air masses expanded, forecast accuracy of temperature became greatly lower during autumns and winters As the migratory anticyclone pattern rapidly moved, forecast accuracy became lower during springs and autumns. Forecast accuracies were compared by wind directions at 850hPa for the Young-dong region where forecast accuracy was the lowest. Forecast accuracy scores on minimum and maximum temperatures were low when winds were westerlies and forecast accuracy scores of precipitation were low when winds were easterlies.

The purposes of this study are to classify heavy snowfall types in the Republic of Korea based on fresh snowfall data and atmospheric circulation data during the last 36(1973/74-2008/09) snow seasons and to identify typical surface synoptic climate patterns that characterize each heavy snowfall type. Four synoptic climate categories and seventeen regional heavy snowfall types are classified based on sea level pressure/surface wind vector patterns in East Asia and frequent spatial clustering patterns of heavy snowfall in the Republic of Korea, respectively. Composite analyses of multiple surface synoptic weather charts demonstrate that the locations and intensity of pressure/wind vector mean and anomaly cores in East Asia differentiate each regional heavy snowfall type in Korea. These differences in synoptic climatic fields are primarily associated with the surge of the Siberian high pressure system and the appearance of low pressure systems over the Korean Peninsula. In terms of hemispheric atmospheric circulation, synoptic climatic patterns in the negative mode of winter Arctic Oscillation (AO) are also associated with frequent heavy snowfall in the Republic of Korea at seasonal scales. These results from long-term synoptic climatic data could contribute to improvement of short-range or seasonal prediction of regional heavy snowfall.
