Recent increase in the strength and frequency of typoons due to climate change claims reconsideration of the design wind load in existing design codes for civil engineering structures in which the basic wind speed is estimated based on meteorological data by mid 1990s. In this paper, based on wind speed data at 76 observatories in Korea from 1961 through 2008, the basic wind speeds which can be utilized in designing civil engineering structures including buildings and bridges are estimated using the statistical process. The return period of the wind speed for each location is determined using the Gumbel distribution. The results for considered locations are compared to the existing design codes. Also, for design applications, the wind speed map, which classifies the country into four basic wind speed zones, is proposed using the resulting basic wind speeds.

This study was conducted to develop a forest fire occurrence model using meteorological characteristics for practical forecasting of forest fire danger rate by reflecting the climate change for the time period of 2000yrs. Forest fire in South Korea is highly influenced by humidity, wind speed, temperature, and precipitation. To effectively forecast forest fire occurrence, we developed a forest fire danger rating model using weather factors associated with forest fire in 2000yrs. Forest fire occurrence patterns were investigated statistically to develop a forest fire danger rating index using times series weather data sets collected from 76 meteorological observation centers. The data sets were used for 11 years from 2000 to 2010. Development of the national forest fire occurrence probability model used a logistic regression analysis with forest fire occurrence data and meteorological variables. Nine probability models for individual nine provinces including Jeju Island have been developed. The results of the statistical analysis show that the logistic models (p<0.05) strongly depends on the effective and relative humidity, temperature, wind speed, and rainfall. The results of verification showed that the probability of randomly selected fires ranges from 0.687 to 0.981, which represent a relatively high accuracy of the developed model. These findings may be beneficial to the policy makers in South Korea for the prevention of forest fires.

The local wind systems in the Pohang region were categorized into wind sectors. Still, thorough knowledge of wind resource assessment, wind environment analysis, and atmospheric environmental impact assessment was required since the region has outstanding wind resources, it is located on the path of typhoon, and it has large-scale atmospheric pollution sources. To overcome the resolution limitation of meteorological dataset and problems of categorization criteria of the preceding studies, the high-resolution wind resource map of the Korea Institute of Energy Research was used as time-series meteorological data; the 2-step method of determining the clustering coefficient through hierarchical clustering analysis and subsequently categorizing the wind sectors through non-hierarchical K-means clustering analysis was adopted. The similarity of normalized time-series wind vector was proposed as the Euclidean distance. The meteor-statistical characteristics of the mean vector wind distribution and meteorological variables of each wind sector were compared. The comparison confirmed significant differences among wind sectors according to the terrain elevation, mean wind speed, Weibull shape parameter, etc.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the patterns of forest fire possibly related with Asian dust event and carry out a correlation analysis between forest fire occurrence and existence or not of the Asian dust event during dry seasons i.e. February to May in 2000 to 2008. To study the correlation of forest fire and Asian dust, we surveyed information of Asian dust observations, forest fire statistics, fire danger rating index, weather data such as temperature, relative humidity and wind speed of the day occurring the forest fire. As a consequence of analysis, the regional frequency of Asian dust was the highest in Gyeonggi and Chungbuk divisions. Frequencies of forest fire occurrence by the Asian dust events were the highest in the day before three days of the Asian dust event. The highest frequent regions of forest fire occurrence were district of boundary line between Gyeonggi and Western of Gangwon, Chungbuk and Gyeonbuk inland. The correlation between forest fire and fire danger rating index showed the high correlation with the day before three days and after three days of the Asian dust event. These correlation coefficients were 0.50038 and 0.53978 to 1% significance level. The result of analysis between the frequency of forest fire occurrence and wind speed had a highly negative relationship at all the Asian dust days, the day before and after three days. The correlation coefficients had been -0.58623 to -0.61245 to 1% significance level. Relative humidity showed a little of negative relationship with forest fire occurrence in -0.2568(p ${\leq}$ 0.01) for the Asian dust day and -0.35309(p ${\leq}$ 0.01) for next three days. Moreover, at the day before three days of Asian dust events, it was -0.23701 to 1% significance level. However, the mean temperature did not correlate with frequency of forest fire occurrence by Asian dust events at all.

The objective of the study was to develop an Urban Windway Forest Creation Planning Technique for the Improvement of the Urban Environment using the case of Daejeon Metropolitan City. Through a spatial analysis of fine dust and heat waves, a basin zone, in which the concentration was relatively serious, was derived, and an area with the potential of cold air flow was selected as the target area for the windway forest development by analyzing the climate and winds in the relevant zone. Extreme fine dust areas included the areas of the Daejeon Industrial Complex Regeneration Business District in Daedeok-gu and Daedeok Techno Valley in Yuseong-gu. Heat wave areas included the areas of Daedeok industrial Complex in Moksang-dong, the Daejeon Industrial Complex Regeneration Business District in Daehwa-dong, and the high-density residential area in Ojeong-dong. As a result of measuring the wind speeds in Daejeon with an Automatic Weather System, the average wind speeds during the day and night were 0.1 to 1.7 m/s,, respectively. So, a plan of for a windway forest that smoothly induces the movement of cold air formed in outer forests at night is required. The fine dust/heat wave intensive management zones of Daejeon Metropolitan City were Daejeoncheon, Yudeungcheon, Gapcheon-Yudeungcheon, and Gapcheon. The windway forest formation plan case involved the old city center of Daejeon Metropolitan City among the four zones, the Gapcheon-Yudeungcheon area, in which the windway formation effect was presumed to be high. The Gapcheon-Yudeungcheon area is a downtown area that benefits from the cold and fresh air generated on Mt. Gyejok and Mt. Wuseong, which are outer forests. Accordingly, the windway forest was planned to spread the cold air to the city center by connecting the cold air generated in the Seosa-myeon forest of Mt. Gyejok and the Namsa-myeon forest of Mt. Wuseong through Gapcheon, Yudeungcheon, and street forests. After selecting the target area for the wind ventilation forest, a climate map and wind formation function evaluation map were prepared for the area, the status of variation wind profiles (night), the status of fine dust generation, and the surface temperature distribution status were grasped in detail. The wind ventilation forest planning concept and detailed target sites by type were identified through this. In addition, a detailed action plan was established according to the direction of creation and setting of the direction of creation for each type of wind ventilation forest.

지구온난화에 따른 가장 큰 영향 중의 하나인 해수면 상승은 인구 및 산업시설이 집중되어 있는 연안에 심각한 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 연안 저지대 범람, 하천과 지하수로의 해수 유입, 하천의 수위증가, 조석 및 퇴적물의 변화 등의 직접적 피해를 증가시키고(국립해양조사원, 2012; Nicholls, 2002; 오상명 등, 2011), 시설물의 설계고 추산 및 흐름, 파랑의 흐름에 영향을 미쳐 연안 시설물의 안정성이나 기능성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려지고 있다(윤종주·김상익, 2012). 기후변화에 관한 정부간 협의체(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC)의 5차 보고서(2014)에 따르면, 1901~2010년 동안 전 지구 평균해수면 상승률은 1.7mm/year에 이르며, 1990년대 이후에 더 높은 해수면 상승률을 예측하였다. 우리나라의 경우, 2010년 말까지의 자료분석 결과에서 2.48mm/year의 연평균 해수면 상승률을 보여 전세계 평균상승률보다 훨씬 상회하는 것으로 보고되고 있다(정태성, 2014; 윤종주 등, 2012). 이와 같이 전 지구적 평균해수면의 변화와는 별개로 지역적 해수면 변동특성은 그 양상이 크게 다를 수 있으며, 이는 지구온난화와 같은 자연적인 요인 뿐만 아니라 지역별 다양한 인위적 요인(풍속, 기압, 연안역 개발정도 등)에 따라 지역적 해수면 상승이 크게 변화할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내 연안역에 분포한 조위관측소의 장기 관측자료(수위)를 이용하여 각 지역별 해수면의 상승경향을 분석하였으며, 동/서/남해안 및 제주권역은 권역별 조석특성이 현저하게 다른 특성을 보이므로 권열별로 구분하여 분석이 수행되었는데 우리나라 대부분의 관측지점에서 평균해수면이 증가하는 추세인 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구의 목적은 한강유역을 대상으로 다중 GCMs (General Circulation Models)을 이용하여 장기유출량을 분석하는 데 있다. 기후변화 전망을 분석하기 위해 총 13개의 GCMs을 선정하여 사용하였다. SDQDM (Spatial Disaggregation-Quantile Delta Mapping) 방법을 이용하여 GCMs을 60개 종관기상관측장비 (Automated Synoptic Observing System, ASOS)에 대해 상세화하였다. GCMs은 총 6개의 변수(강수, 최고 기온, 최저기온, 풍속, 상대습도, 일사량)를 제공하였다. 장기유출량 분석은 투수지역과 불투수지역을 모두 고려할 수 있는 HSPF 모형을 선정하여 수행하였다. 장기유출량의 공간적인 범위는 한강유역의 16개 중권역을 기준으로 선정하였고, 시간적인 범위는 과거 기준 기간 (Reference period: 1976-2005), 미래 3개 기간 (Near future period: 2011-2040, Mid-century period: 2041-2070, Distance future period: 2071-2099)으로 30년 단위로 구분하여 선정하였다. 본 연구는 13개의 GCM을 사용하여 추정된 장기유출량의 연간 및 계절적 평균과 변동성을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 HSPF 모형을 활용하여 분석한 결과는 복잡한 한강유역의 특성을 적절히 반영하여, 기후변화에 따른 수자원 계획 및 통합 유역 관리를 수립하기 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.
