Accurately predicting localized heavy rainfall is challenging without high-resolution mesoscale cloud information in the numerical model's initial field, as precipitation intensity and amount vary significantly across regions. In the Korean Peninsula, the radar observation network covers the entire country, providing high-resolution data on hydrometeors which is suitable for data assimilation (DA). During the pre-processing stage, radar reflectivity is classified into hydrometeors (e.g., rain, snow, graupel) using the background temperature field. The mixing ratio of each hydrometeor is converted and inputted into a numerical model. Moreover, assimilating saturated water vapor mixing ratio and decomposing radar radial velocity into a three-dimensional wind vector improves the atmospheric dynamic field. This study presents radar DA experiments using a numerical prediction model to enhance the wind, water vapor, and hydrometeor mixing ratio information. The impact of radar DA on precipitation prediction is analyzed separately for each radar component. Assimilating radial velocity improves the dynamic field, while assimilating hydrometeor mixing ratio reduces the spin-up period in cloud microphysical processes, simulating initial precipitation growth. Assimilating water vapor mixing ratio further captures a moist atmospheric environment, maintaining continuous growth of hydrometeors, resulting in concentrated heavy rainfall. Overall, the radar DA experiment showed a 32.78% improvement in precipitation forecast accuracy compared to experiments without DA across four cases. Further research in related fields is necessary to improve predictions of mesoscale heavy rainfall in South Korea, mitigating its impact on human life and property.

파랑 모델에서 시공간적인 해상도의 변경은 결과에 많은 영향을 끼친다. 본 연구에서는 모델 입력장의 해상도 변경, 파랑 모델의 해상도 변경 그리고 물리적 옵션에 따른 모델의 민감도를 분석하였다. 모델의 분석을 위해서 전지구 부이관측자료와 위성자료를 이용하였다. 고해상도의 입력장을 사용할 경우 유의파고를 과대 산정하는 경향을 보였고, RSME는 약간 감소하였다. 고해상도의 파랑 모델을 수행할 경우 평균편향 및 RMSE가 약간 증가하였다. 또한, 유효 해상풍 계수를 기존의 값인 1.4보다 작게 설정할 경우 편향과 RMSE가 모두 감소하였다.

In order to predict air pollution and Yellow-sand dispersion precisely, it is necessary to clarify the sensitivity of meteorological field input interval. Therefore numerical experiment by atmospheric dynamic model(RAMS) and atmospheric dispersion model(PDAS) was performed for evaluating the effect of temporal and spatial resolution of meteorological data on particle dispersion. The results are as follows: 1) Base on the result of RAMS simulation, surface wind direction and speed can either synchronize upper wind or not. If surface wind and upper wind do not synchronize, precise prediction of Yellow-sand dispersion is strongly associated with upwelling process of sand of particle. 2) There is no significant discrepance in distribution of particle under usage of difference temporal resolution of meteorological information at early time of simulation, but the difference of distribution of particles become large as time goes by. 3) There is little difference between calculated particles distributions in dispersion experiments with high temporal resolution of meteorological data. On the other hand, low resolution of meteorological data occur the quantitative difference of particle density and there is strong tendency to the quantitative difference.

Sea/land circulation system is a representative mesoscale local circulation system in coastal area. In this study, wind fields around coastal area. Pohang, which is affected by this system was investigated and its detailed characteristic analysis was carried out. The following can be found out from the numerical simulation. Generally, at nighttime mountain winds prevail and land breeze toward the coastal area was well simulated During daytime, valley wind and sea breeze was simulated in detail. Especially, as a result of analyzing the land breeze path, it could be found along the coastline as it flows out through low land coastal area. In order to investigate the accuracy of model results. wind speed, temperature and wind direction of continuous typical sea/land breeze occurrence day was compared with observation data. Analyzing the characteristics of local circulation system was very hard because of horizontally sparse observation data but from the above result, a numerical simulation using RAMS, which satisfies the spatial high resolution, will provide more accurate results.

해상풍은 대기-해양의 상호작용을 이해하는데 중요한 요소일 뿐만 아니라, 해양에서 기인하는 위험기상을 예측하는데 중요한 입력자료이다. 정확한 예측을 위해서는 정확한 해상풍 자료가 요구되지만, 육상과 달리 해상은 관측이 제한적이기 때문에 관측 자료가 많지 않은 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 장기간의 고해상도 해상풍 자료 구축을 목표로 하였다. 먼저 장기간에 대해 활용 가능한 ERA5 재분석 바람장을 고해상도로 재격자화 하였고, 재격자화 한 ERA5 바람장을 수치모형 ADCIRC (ADvanced CIRCulation model)의 GAHM(Generalized Asymmetric Holland Model)을 이용하여 산출한 비대칭형 태풍 바람장과 합성하였다. 산출된 비대칭형 태풍 합성 바람장은 기상청 (Korea Meteorological Administration, KMA) 및 일본 기상청 (Japan Meteorological Administration, JMA) 관측자료를 이용하여 정확도를 평가하였다. 평가결과, ERA5 바람장 및 Holland 식을 이용하여 산출한 대칭형 태풍 합성 바람장보다 비대칭형 태풍 합성 바람장이 관측값을 매우 유사하게 재현하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 생산한 해상풍 자료는 향후 폭풍해일 후측 자료 구축, 폭풍해일고 빈도 분석, 해상풍 빈도 분석 등 다양한 연구의 기초자료로 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

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.

해상풍 데이터는 최근 들어서 신재생 에너지 개발의 일환으로 해상 풍력발전 단지가 각광받으면서 더욱 중요성을 더하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 2015~2020년 부울경(부산, 울산, 경남) 연안해역을 촬영한 Sentinel-1 영상 368장과 저해상도 수치모델의 UV 컴포넌트를 이용한 DNN (Deep Neural Network) 모델을 개발하여 해상풍 데이터를 공간해상도 10 m 수준으로 정밀하게 생산하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이를 통해 기존의 CMOD (C-band Model) 함수에 비해 40% 정도 오차가 감소하였으며, U 컴포넌트와 V 컴포넌트는 각각 상관계수 0.901, 0.826의 비교적 높은 정확도를 나타냈다. 본 연구에서 부울경 해역(해안선으로부터 3 km 버퍼 영역)에 대해 산출한 10 m 해상도의 바람장 지도를 작성해 보면, 내륙에서 외해로 갈수록 풍속이 강해지는 일반적인 경향을 따르면서도 공간적으로 상세화된 바람 패턴을 잘 나타낼 수 있었다. 이러한 고해상도 해상풍 지도는 해상 풍력발전을 위한 상세조사뿐 아니라, SAR를 활용한 전천후 연안 방재 및 연안레저 정보 제공을 지원할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Products of gridded surface wind and windstress vectors over the world ocean have been constructed by satellite scatterometer data with highly temporal and spatial resolutions. Even if the ADEOS-II/SeaWinds has supplied surface wind data only for short duration in Apr. to Oct. 2003 to us, it permits us to construct a product with higher resolution together with the Qscat/SeaWinds. In addition to our basic product with its resolution of $1^{\circ}\times1^{\circ}$ in space and daily in time, we try to construct products with $1/2^{\circ}\times1/2^{\circ}$ and semi- and quarter-daily resolution. These products are validated by inter-comparison with in-situ data (TAO and NDBC buoys), and also compared with numerical weather prediction(NWP) ones (NCEP reanalysis). Result reveals that our product has higher reliability in the study area than the NCEP's. For the open ocean regions in the middle and high latitudes where there are no in-situ data, we find that there are clear differences between them. Especially in the southern westerly region of 400-600S, the' wind-stress magnitudes by the NCEP are significantly larger than the others, suggesting that they are overestimated. We also calculate wind-stress curl field that is an important factor for ocean dynamics and focus its spatial character in the northwestern Pacific around Japan. Positive curl areas are found to cover from southwest to northeast in our focus region and almost correspond to the Kuroshio path. It is suggested that the vorticity field in the lower atmosphere is related to the upper oceanic one, and thus an aspect of air-sea interaction process.

In this study, we focused on the improvements in the simulation of sea surface wind over the complex coastal area. MM5 model being currently used to predict sea surface wind at Korea Meteorological Administration, was used to verify the accuracy to estimate the local wind field. A case study was performed on clear days with weak wind speed(4 m/s), chosen by the analysis of observations. The model simulations were conducted in the southeastern area of Korea during the selected periods, and observational data such as AWS, buoy and QuikSCAT were used to compare with the calculated wind components to investigate if simulated wind field could follow the tendency of the real atmospheric wind field. Results showed that current operational model, MM5, does not estimate accurately sea surface wind and the wind over the coastal area. The calculated wind speed was overestimated along the complex coastal regions but it was underestimated in islands and over the sea. The calculated diurnal changes of wind direction could not follow well the tendency of the observed wind, especially at nighttime. In order to exceed the limitations, data assimilation with high resolution data and more specificated geographical information is expected as a next best policy to estimate accurately the environment of local marine wind field.

Recently air quality modeling studies for industrial complex and large cities located in the coastal regions have been carried out. Especially, the representation of atmospheric flow fields within a model domain is very important, because an adequate air quality simulation requires an accurate portrayal of the realistic three -dimensional wind fields. Therefore this study investigated effect of using high resolution terrain height data in numerical simulation. So the experiments were designed according to the detail terrain height with 3second resolution or not. Case 30s was the experiment using the terrain height data of USGS and Case 3s was the other using the detail terrain height data of Ministry of Environment. The results of experimental were more remarkable. In Case 3s, temperature indicated similar tendency comparing to observational data predicting maximum temperature during the daytime and wind speed made weakly for difference of terrain height.
