Background: The purpose of this study, mosquito forecast system implemented by Seoul Metropolitan city, was to obtain the mosquito prediction formula by using the mosquito population data and the environmental data of the past. Results: For this study, the mosquito population data from April 1, 2015, to October 31, 2017, were collected. The mosquito population data were collected from the 50 smart mosquito traps (DMSs), two of which were installed in each district (Korean, gu) in Seoul Metropolitan city since 2015. Environmental factors were collected from the Automatic Weather System (AWS) by the Korea Meteorological Administration. The data of the nearest AWS devices from each DMS were used for the prediction formula analysis. We found out that the environmental factors affecting the mosquito population in Seoul Metropolitan city were the mean temperature and rainfall. We predicted the following equations by the generalized linear model analysis: ln(Mosquito population) = 2.519 + 0.08 × mean temperature + 0.001 × rainfall. Conclusions: We expect that the mosquito forecast system would be used for predicting the mosquito population and to prevent the spread of disease through mosquitoes.

In Korea, 63% of the nation's land is made up of forests, and the average temperature of the earth has been increasing. Forest service has been operating a proactive control system for preventing the spread of forest pests such as Pine wilt disease. but there were some hurdles in timely control due to weather, topography and manpower management difficulties. In this paper, we propose a model for building fast, accurate and efficient control system by categorizing the damage and dead wood automatically based on the images acquired using small unmanned aerial vehicles based on information and communication technology. In particular, the proposed model establishes an effective response system for government affairs through cooperation in the private sector. It can also create new jobs in the unmanned aerial vehicle business and service industries.

우리나라에서 발생하는 기상 재해 현상은 주로 태풍, 집중호우, 장마 등 인명 및 경제적인 피해가 크며, 단기간에 국지적으로 나타난다. 현재 재해 감시 및 예보는 주로 종관기상관측체계를 이용하고 있다. 하지만, 우리나라의 복잡한 지형, 인구 밀집 지형, 관측 시기가 일정하지 않은 지형과 같은 조건에서 미계측 자료 및 지역이 다수 존재 때문에 강수의 공간 분포와 강도에 대한 정밀한 정보를 제공하지 못하는 실정이다. 최근 광범위한 관측영역과 공간 분해능의 개선, 자료추출 알고리즘의 개발로 전세계적으로 위성영상 기반 기상관측 자료의 활용성이 증대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한반도 지역의 지상 관측데이터와 전지구 격자형 위성 강우자료를 비교하여 한반도의 적용성을 분석하고자 한다. 다양한 위성영상 기반 기상자료인 Climate Hazards Groups InfraRed Precipitation with Station (CHIRPS), Precipitation Estimation From Remotely Sensed Information Using Artificial Neural Networks-Climate Data Record (PERSIANN-CDR), Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC), Precipitation Estimation From Remotely Sensed Information Using Artificial Neural Networks-Cloud Classification System (PERSIANN-CCS) 4개의 강우위성영상을 수집하여, 1991년부터 2020년까지 30년 데이터를 활용하였다. 강수량 변동성 비교를 위하여 기상청의 종관기상관측장비 (Automated Synoptic Observation System, ASOS), 자동기상관측시설 (Automatic Weather System, AWS) 데이터와 상관 분석을 수행하고, 강우위성영상의 국내 적합성을 판단하고자 한다.

In this study, we have developed an optimal time distribution model through extraction of peaks over threshold (POT) series. The median values for annual maximum rainfall dataset, which are obtained from the magnetic recording (MMR) and the automatic weather system(AWS) data at Seoul meteorological observatory, were used as the POT criteria. We also suggested the improved methodology for the time distribution of extreme rainfall compared to Huff method, which is widely used for time distributions of design rainfall. The Huff method did not consider changing in the shape of time distribution for each rainfall durations and rainfall criteria as total amount of rainfall for each rainfall events. This study have suggested an extracting methodology for rainfall events in each quartile based on interquartile range (IQR) matrix and selection for the mode quartile storm to determine the ranking cosidering weighting factors on minutely observation data. Finally, the optimal time distribution model in each rainfall duration was derived considering both data size and characteristics of distribution using kernel density function in extracted dimensionless unit rainfall hyetograph.

Recently in order to mange better life quality much effort was spent for environmental-friendly urban development project and environmental restoration project. During these projects, there should be deep understanding about atmospheric environment change analysis and long term monitoring so that it would be helpful for better environment promotion such as heat island mitigation effect and wind way construction. In this study, the surface temperature environment change between before and after Cheonggye Stream Restoration Project was mapped and analyzed by using ASTER(Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission Reflection Radiometer) TIR(Thermal Infrared) satellite imagery and finally the fact, that the heat island effect was mitigated, was clarified. For this study, the correlation analysis was conducted through comparing the difference between atmosphere temperature of AWS(Automatic Weather System) and surface temperature of ASTER. Furthermore, this study will be the infrastructure of urban meteorology model development by understanding surface temperature pattern change and executing quantitative analysis of heat island.

The climatological characteristics of coastal zone over the southwestern coast of Korea peninsula were investigated using the data observed by AWS (automatic weather system) and 4 buoy points. Coastal zone is climatologically defined as the region bounded by the distinct contrast of temperature gradient and wind speed across coastline. In the southwest of peninsula four cross-lines consisted of AWS aligned with each buoy were selected as Geojedo buoy line, Geomundo buoy line, Chilbaldo buoy line and Dukjukdo buoy line. Analysis on the diurnal cycle and intra-month variation, monthly mean and maximum value, the temperature gradient with distance between buoy and each station and the accumulative frequency of wind speed were applied to find out the characteristics and the range of coast zone. The maximum ranges of coastal zone vary from offshore to Sanglim (about 34 km distance from coastline) for Geojedo buoy line, to Sunchun (about 52 km) for Geo-mundo buoy line, to Jaeundo (about 27 km) for chilbaldo buoy line and to Yongin (about 65 km) for Dukjukdo buoy line. The modification of coastal zone according to synoptic flow was investigated for the onshore, off-shore and calm cases. The ranges of coastal zone are significantly changed with the distance between 65∼90 km for the case of onshore. In addition, we tried to find out the variation of the wind and temperature and the wind ratio of wind speed at ocean to land stations along Geojedo buoy line during 12∼13 Sep. 2003 affected by typhoon (MAEMI).

This study aims to identify the relationship between climatic factors and stand mean Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) for two major tree species; Pinus densiflora and Quercus mongolica in Andong-dam basin. Forest variables such as age, diameter distribution and number of trees per hectare from the $5^{th}$ and $6^{th}$ National Forest Inventory data were used to develop a DBH estimation model. Climate data were collected from six meteorological observatory station and twelve Automatic Weather System provided by Korea Meteorological Administration to produce interpolated daily average temperature map with Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method. Andong-dam basin reflects rugged mountainous terrain, so temperature were adjusted by lapse rate based correction. As a result, predictions of model were consistent with the previous studies; that the rising temperature is negatively related to the growth of Pinus densiflora whereas opposing trend is observed for Quercus mongolica.

This study estimated and evaluated the high resolution (1km) gridded mountain meteorology data of daily mean, maximum and minimum temperature based on ASOS (Automated Surface Observing System), AWS (Automatic Weather Stations) and AMOS (Automatic Mountain Meteorology Observation System) in South Korea. The ASOS, AWS, and AMOS meteorology data which were located above 200m was classified as mountainous area. And the ASOS, AWS, and AMOS meteorology data which were located under 200m was classified as non-mountainous area. The bias-correction method was used for correct air temperature over complex mountainous area and the performance of enhanced daily coefficients based on the AMOS and mountainous area observing meteorology data was evaluated using the observed daily mean, maximum and minimum temperature. As a result, the evaluation results show that RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) of air temperature using the enhanced coefficients based on the mountainous area observed meteorology data is smaller as 30% (mean), 50% (minimum), and 37% (maximum) than that of using non-mountainous area observed meteorology data. It indicates that the enhanced weather coefficients based on the AMOS and mountain ASOS can estimate mean, maximum, and minimum temperature data reasonably and the temperature results can provide useful input data on several climatological and forest disaster prediction studies.

기후변화 시나리오 및 계절예측 자료를 포함한 기후정보를 수자원 분야에 활용하기 위해서는 기후정보의 시 공간적인 상세화(donwscaling)을 필요로 한다. 상세화의 경우 역학적 상세화와 통계학적 상세화로 구분될 수 있으며, 통계학적 상세화를 위해서는 대상 지역의 기후특성을 대표할 수 있는 장기 관측 자료의 확보가 중요하다. 국내의 경우에는 자동기상관측장비(Automatic Weather System, AWS)와 종관기상관측장비(Automatic Synoptic Observation System, ASOS)로 부터 수집된 기상관측자료를 사용할 수 있으나 기후변화 시나리오의 통계적 상세화를 위해서는 30년 이상의 자료 기간을 포함하는 ASOS 자료가 적합하다. 하지만 개발도상국과 같이 기상관측기반이 열악한 지역에서는 잦은 결측 등으로 인하여 품질이 좋은 관측자료의 획득이 어려운 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 측이 포함된 장기 기상관측 자료로부터 대상 지역의 기후특성을 재현할 수 있도록 기본적인 QC(Quality Control)을 거쳐 결측 자료를 보완할 수 있는 기법 및 R 기반패키지를 개발하여 적용성을 평가하였다. 개발된 기법의 적용성 평가를 위해서 기상청에서 QC를 통해 제공하고 있는 60개 ASOS 지점의 관측자료 중 강수량과 기온 변수를 사용하였다. 최대 50%까지의 현실적인 결측 패턴을 임의로 생성하기 위해 실제 개발도상국 관측자료의 일단위 결측 패턴을 이용하였다. 자료의 QC는 관측일 누락/중복 및 문자형 관측값 등 기본적인 오류 검사, 기온의 경우 물리적 허용 범위에 대한 검사, 최고기온과 최저기온의 비교 및 계측기 오작동에 의한 동일한 값의 반복 등을 포함한 내적 일치성 검사를 우선적으로 수행한다. 이후 결측값에 대해서 인근 기상관측소와의 상관성 분석 결과를 기반으로 결측값을 채우고, 최종적으로는 다양한 위성자료 및 재분석 자료 중에서 일단위 기후특성의 재현성 평가를 통해 선정된 격자형 자료와의 상관성 분석 결과를 기반으로 결측값을 보정하였다. 기온의 경우는 결측률이 높더라도 월평균 기후특성에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았지만 강수의 경우에는 5% 이상의 결측이 발생하는 경우 월평균 강수량에 영향을 미쳐 지역의 강수량을 과소 추정하는 결과를 보였다. 개발된 QC 기법을 강수 자료에 적용한 결과 월평균 기후특성을 잘 복원하는 결과를 보였지만, 일단위 강우 사상의 재현에 있어서는 미흡한 결과를 보였다.

Automatic observing is the most efficient system for sky surveys that image many targets over large areas of the sky. Such a system requires the integrating control software that systematically manages astronomical instruments that are not connected to each other. In February of 2017, we installed a wide-field 10 inch telescope for Supernovae survey on the McDonald 30 inch telescope as a piggyback system. However, during the observations, information such as target coordinates could not be exchanged with the telescope mount. The reason is the program that controls the telescope control system (TCS) and the program that controls the imager operate on independent PCs. KAOS30 is an integrated observing software developed to improve this environment. The software is composed of four packages that are the Telescope Control Package (TCP), the Data Acquisition Package (DAP), the Auto Focus Package (AFP), and the Script Mode Package (SMP). The TCP communicates to the TCS and also communicates weather information. SMP supports automatic observing in a script mode, which improves the efficiency of the survey. KAOS30 was developed based on Visual C ++ and runs on the Windows operating system. It also supports the ASCOM driver platform for various manufacturers. The instruments that support ASCOM can be installed without modification of the program code. KAOS30 can be applied as software for many different telescopes in future projects.
