The effect of 3DVAR (Three Dimension Variational data Assimilation) was examined by comparing observation and the simulations of CNTL (to which data assimilation was not applied) and ALL (to which data assimilation was applied using ground observation data and radar data) for the case of a heavy snowfall event (case A) of 11-12 February 2011 in the Yeongdong region. In case A, heavy snow intensively came in the Yeongdong coastal region rather than Daegwallyeong, in particular, around the Gangneung and Donghae regions with total precipitation in Bukgangneung at approximately 91 mm according to the AWS observation. It can be seen that compared to CNTL, ALL simulated larger precipitation along the Yeongdong coastline extending from Sokcho to Donghae while simulating smaller precipitation for inland areas including Daegwallyeong. On comparison of the total accumulated precipitations from simulations of CNTL and ALL, and the observed total accumulated precipitation, the positive effect of the assimilation of ground observation data and radar data could be identified in Bukgangneung and Donghae, on the other hand, the negative effect of the assimilation could be identified in the Daegwallyeong and Sokcho regions. In order to examine the average accuracy of precipitation prediction by CNTL and ALL for the entire Gangwon region including the major points mentioned earlier, the three hour accumulated precipitation from simulations of CNTL and ALL were divided into 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 mm/3hr and threat Scores were calculated by forecasting time. ALL showed relatively higher TSs than CNTL for all threshold values although there were some differences. That is, when considered generally based on the Gangwon region, the accuracy of precipitation prediction from ALL was improved somewhat compared to that from CNTL.

The effect of Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) observations on the short-range forecast in East Asia (EA) was investigated for the Northern Hemispheric (NH) summer and winter months, using the Forecast Sensitivity to Observations (FSO) method. For both periods, the contribution of radiosonde (TEMP) to the EA forecast was largest, followed by AIRCRAFT, AMSU-A, Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI), and the atmospheric motion vector of Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) or Multi-functional Transport Satellite (MTSAT). The contribution of AMSU-A sensor was largely originated from the NOAA 19, NOAA 18, and MetOp-A (NOAA 19 and 18) satellites in the NH summer (winter). The contribution of AMSU-A sensor on the MetOp-A (NOAA 18 and 19) satellites was large at 00 and 12 UTC (06 and 18 UTC) analysis times, which was associated with the scanning track of four satellites. The MetOp-A provided the radiance data over the Korea Peninsula in the morning (08:00~11:30 LST), which was important to the morning forecast. In the NH summer, the channel 5 observations on MetOp-A, NOAA 18, 19 along the seaside (along the ridge of the subtropical high) increased (decreased) the forecast error slightly (largely). In the NH winter, the channel 8 observations on NOAA 18 (NOAA 15 and MetOp-A) over the Eastern China (Tibetan Plateau) decreased (increased) the forecast error. The FSO provides useful information on the effect of each AMSU-A sensor on the EA forecasts, which leads guidance to better use of AMSU-A observations for EA regional numerical weather prediction.

백두산 화산의 대규모 분화로 인한 우리나라 PM_2.5 영향 및 피해범위를 정량적으로 예측하기 위하여 우리나라에 직접 피해를 주는 worst-case 기상 시나리오를 적용하여 3차원 대기화학모델링 시스템 WRF-SMOKE-CMAQ(Weather Research & Forecasting - Sparse Matrix Operation Kernel Emission - Comunity Multi-scale Air Quality)을 구동하였다. 과거 10년(2005~2014년)간 백두산 분화 worst-case 우선순위 중 우리나라에 가장 큰 직접 피해를 주는 대표 worst-case 시나리오를 적용하여 대상 사례일(2012.5.16)에 VEI 4의 대규모 화산 분화를 가정하여 화산 분화로 인한 초미세먼지(PM_2.5)의 영향을 분석하였다. 우리나라 지역별(시군구) PM_2.5의 영향을 예측하고 취약계층 등을 반영한 노출평가를 실시하여 취약지역을 도출하였다. 또한, 시군구의 영향을 보다 상세규모(9 km × 9 km)로 분석하여 시군구 지역 내 취약지역을 도출하였다. 백두산 분화 대표 worst-case(2012.5.16.) 분석결과, 국내 PM_2.5 피크농도는 24,547 ㎍/㎥로 낙하 화산재(5억 4천만톤) 처리가 가장 큰 문제로 대두되었던 미국 세인트헬렌스 화산 분화(1980년) 사례보다 더 극한 상황이 될 것으로 예상된다. 또한, PM_2.5 고농도 지역의 분석결과, 파주, 김포, 고양, 강화, 산청, 하동에서 고농도가 나타났다. 반면, 인구 노출분석 결과 인구 밀집지역인 파주가 특히 취약지역으로 나타났고, 취약계층 노출분석 결과 또한, 취약계층 인구가 많은 파주, 남양주, 화성이 취약지역으로 나타났다. 시군구 지역을 상세규모로 분석함으로써 하동 북부 등 시군구 지역 내에서의 고농도 지역을 도출할 수 있었다. 화산재해 발생 시 대기오염물질의 고농도 지역도 중요하지만 인구 및 민감군, 취약계층 밀집지역 등을 고려한 대응 및 대책 마련이 필요하겠으며 시군구에 대한 일률적인 대책보다 시군구 지역 내 고농도 지역 등의 선별을 통한 취약 지역별 대책 마련이 필요하겠다. 본 연구는 화산재해의 재난선포 기준 개발 및 선제적 대응체계 개발의 초석 마련에 기초자료가 될 것으로 판단된다.

The advent of high resolution products of surface wind and temperature derived by satellite data has permitted us to investigate ocean and atmosphere interaction studies in detail. Especially the Kuroshio extension region of the western North Pacific is considered to be a key area for such studies. We have constructed gridded products of surface wind/wind stress over the world ocean using satellite scatterometer (Qscat/SeaWinds), available as the Japanese Ocean Flux data sets with Use of Remote sensing Observation (J-OFURO). Using new data based on improved algorithm which have been recently delivered, we are reconstructing gridded product with higher spatial resolution. Intercomparison of this product with the previous one reveals that there are some discrepancies between them in short-period and high wind-speed ranges especially in the westerly wind region. The products are validated by not only comparisons with in-situ measurement data by mooring buoys such as TAO/TRITON in the tropical Pacific and the Kuroshio Extension Observation (KEO) buoys, but also intercomparison with numerical weather prediction model (NWPM) products (the NRA-1 and 2). Our products have much smaller mean difference in the study areas than the NWPM ones, meaning higher reliability compared with the NWPM products. Using the high resolution products together with sea surface temperature (SST) data, we examine a new type of relationship between the lower atmosphere and upper ocean in the Kuroshio Extension region. It is suggested that the spatial relation between the wind speed and SST depends upon, more or less, the surrounding oceanic condition.

The purpose of this study is to build and evaluate a high-resolution (50 m) KMAPP (Korea Meteorological Administration Post Processing) reflecting building data. KMAPP uses LDAPS (Local Data Assimilation and Prediction System) data to detail ground wind speed through surface roughness and elevation corrections. During the detailing process, we improved the vegetation roughness data to reflect the impact of city buildings. AWS (Automatic Weather Station) data from a total of 48 locations in the metropolitan area including Seoul in 2019 were used as the observation data used for verification. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by dividing the experiment according to the method of improving the vegetation roughness length. KMAPP has been shown to improve the tendency of LDAPS to over simulate surface wind speeds. Compared to LDAPS, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is improved by approximately 23% and Mean Bias Error (MBE) by about 47%. However, there is an error in the roughness length around the Han River or the coastline. Accordingly, the surface roughness length was improved in KMAPP and the building information was reflected. In the sensitivity experiment of improved KMAPP, RMSE was further improved to 6% and MBE to 3%. This study shows that high-resolution KMAPP reflecting building information can improve wind speed accuracy in urban areas.

From 2015 to 2021, high-concentration fine dust episodes with a daily average PM_2.5 concentration of 50 ㎍ m^-3 or higher were selected and classified into 3 types [long range transport (LRT), mixed (MIX) and Local emission and stagnant (LES)] using synoptic chart and backward trajectory analysis. And relationships between the fine particle data (PM_2.5 and PM₁₀ concentration and PM_2.5/PM₁₀ ratio) and meteorological data (PBLH, Ta, WS, U-wind, and Rainfall) were analyzed using hourly observation for the classification episodes on the Korean Peninsula and the Seoul metropolitan area (SMA). In LRT, relatively large particles such as dust are usually included, and in LES, fine particle is abundant. In the Korean peninsula, the rainfall was relatively increased centered on the middle and western coasts in MIX and LES. In the SMA, wind speed was rather strong in LRT and weak in LES. In LRT, rainfall was centered in Seoul, and in MIX and LES, rainfall appeared around Seoul. However, when the dust cases were excluded, the difference between the LRT and other types of air quality was decreased, but the meteorological variables (Ta, RH, Pa, PBLH, etc.) were further strengthened. In the case of the Korean Peninsula, it is difficult to find a clear relationship because regional influences (topographical elevation, cities and coasts, etc.) are complexly included in a rather wide area. In the SMA, it is analyzed that the effects of urbanization such as the urban heat island centered on Seoul coincide with the sea and land winds, resulting in a combination of high concentrations and meteorological phenomena.

To evaluate the bacteriological water quality in Yongnam-Gwangdo, located in western Jinhae Bay, seawater samples were analyzed using sanitary indicator bacteria at 57 sampling stations. According to survey results from January 2007 to December 2009, the range of the geometric mean and the estimated 90th percentile for coliforms and fecal coliforms in the samples were <1.8-16.5 and 1.8-246.8 MPN/100 mL and <1.8-7.1 and 1.8-74.8 MPN/100 mL, respectively. The samples, including those taken from stations located in Wonmunman, Gwangdo, and Dangdong, showed high levels of microbial contamination caused by the climate and weather patterns in the marine environment. The bacteriological water quality in the area met Korean criteria for a designated shellfish growing area for export and National Shellfish Sanitation Program criteria for an approved shellfish growing area, except at station #49. A total of 24 direct pollution sources were discharged into the shellfish growing area. The radius of impact was calculated for each pollution source to assess the effect on the shellfish growing area. The calculated radius of impact for most of the pollution sources was below 300 m. However, the radius of impact for the combined pollution sources in Kyeonnaeryang was 93-1973 m. There were significant differences between the calculated closed sea area and actual monitoring results. The closed sea area values calculated from the fecal coliform load in drainage water tended to be higher than the actual monitoring results. Tidal currents and environmental factors such as salinity, water temperature, sunlight, and microbiological factors affect the survival of fecal indicator bacteria in seawater.

지구온난화는 해수면 상승이나 전 세계의 변덕스러운 기후와 같은 심각하면서 부차적인 문제를 야기한다. 2015년 여름에 심각한 폭염이 있은 이래로, 도시열섬에 대한 큰 관심이 모아졌다. 폭염 자체에 대한 연구뿐만이 아니라, 많은 연구가 온난화된 기후와 미시 기후에 적응하는 방법에 중점을 둔다. 기존 연구들의 상당부분은 도시열섬 효과를 완화하는 것인데, 이는 다양한 활동을 하고 있는 인구가 많은 도시 지역에 거대한 불침투성 표면이 존재하고 있기 때문이다. 또한 이 열 환경이 열 취약성에 의한 사망을 초래할 가능성이 높다는 것은 심각한 문제이다. 여름철 그린인프라의 냉각효과에 대한 논문이 많이 있어왔지만, 본 연구는 도시 협곡과 인접한 그린인프라 유형을 고려하여 가로수의 냉각 효과를 측정하는 데에 집중했다. 이 정량적 접근은 ENVI-met 시뮬레이션을 통해 서울의 상업지역 블록에서 진행되었다. 연구결과로 밀도가 높은 2열 식재가 단열식재보다 온도 변화에 더 민감하다는 것을 발견했다. 2열 식재 시나리오 중 가로수와 지표면 사이의 공간이 좁은 관목은 주간에 열을 저장하여 야간에 저장열 방출을 막아 더 높은 온도를 유지하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 식생 공간의 냉각 효과를 정량화하면 미래의 비용 및 편익 평가 연구에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

생명기후분석시스템(BioCAS)을 이용하여 서울시 전역의 폭염사례일 기온, 인지온도(PT), 초과사망률($r_{EM}$) 분포를 분석하였다. 분석 해상도는 25m 였으며, 사례일은 2012년 8월 5일이었다. 분석 결과는 관측된 사망률 및 내원환자수 자료와의 비교를 통해 평가되었다. 2004년에서 2013년의 폭염 원인인 사망률 자료와 2006년에서 2011년의 국민건강보험공단의 폭염 내원환자수 자료를 이용하여 행정구별 폭염 건강위험 자료를 추출하였다. 자료 비교를 위한 공간 해상도는 사망률 및 내원환자수 자료의 해상도인 행정구 단위였다. BioCAS에서 분석된 사례일 최고 인지온도 및 초과사망률 분포 자료는 행정구별 공간 평균, 최대, 최소 및 누적값으로 변환된 후 건강피해자료와 상관분석이 수행되었다. 분석 결과 일 최고 인지온도 및 초과사망률의 공간 평균값은 건강피해를 설명하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 대신 일 최고 인지온도의 공간 최솟값은 사망률과, 공간 최댓값은 내원환자수와 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다(각각 r=0.53, r=0.42). 즉, 밀집된 건물에 의해 생겨나는 공간 최댓값은 낮 동안의 일사병 발생과 내원환자수 증가에 영향을 주었고, 식생에 의해 나타나는 공간 최솟값은 밤 동안의 열 스트레스를 감소시켜 사망률에 영향을 주었던 것으로 판단된다. 한편 분석된 초과사망률($r_{EM}$)은 공간 최댓값과 내원환자수가 상관관계가 있었지만(r=0.52) 사망률과의 상관관계는 인정되지 않았는데, 이것은 연령별 인구구성 차이에 따른 기저 폭염위험도 차이 등 행정구별 불균일성을 고려하지 못한 한계가 나타난 것으로 판단된다. 개별 건물과 식생의 열적 효과는 공간 평균보다 최대, 최소 등 그 분포가 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 고해상도 분석기술은 도시의 건강영향평가를 통해 도시개발에 관한 경제성 분석에 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

A 3D sonic anemometer has been installed at Yongpyong alpine slope since Oct. 23th 2014 to observe the slope winds and to analyze turbulent characteristics with the change in surface cover (grass and snow) and the synoptic wind strength. Eddy covariance method has been applied to calculate the turbulent quantity after coordinate transformation of a planar-fit rotation. We have carefully selected 3 good episodes in the winter season (23 October 2014 to 28 February 2015) for each category (9 days in total), such as grass and snow covers in case of weak synoptic wind condition, and grass cover of strong synoptic wind. The diurnal variations of the slope winds were well developed like the upslope wind in the daytime and downslope wind in the nighttime for both surface covers (grass and snow) in the weak synoptic forcing, when accordingly both heat and momentum fluxes significantly increased in the daytime and decreased in the nighttime. Meanwhile, diurnal variation of heat flux was not present on the snow cover probably in associated with significant fraction of sunlight reflection due to high albedo especially during the daytime in comparison to those on the grass cover. In the strong synoptic regime, the most dominant feature at Yongpyong, only the southeasterly downslope winds were steadily generated irrespective of day and night with significant increases in momentum flux and turbulent kinetic energy as well, which could suggest that local circulations are suppressed by the synoptic scale forcing. In spite of only one season analysis applied to the limited domain, this kind of an observation-based study will provide the basis for understanding of the local wind circulation in the complex mountain domain such as Gangwon in Korea.
