The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) National Typhoon Center has been officially releasing reanalyzed best tracks for the previous year's northwest Pacific typhoons since 2015. However, while most typhoon researchers are aware of the data released by other institutions, such as the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) and the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RSMC) Tokyo, they are often unfamiliar with the KMA products. In this technical note, we describe the best track data released by KMA, and the algorithms that are used to generate it. We hope that this will increase the usefulness of the data to typhoon researchers, and help raise awareness of the product. The best track reanalysis process is initiated when the necessary database of observations-which includes satellite, synoptic, ocean, and radar observations-has become complete for the required year. Three categories of best track information-position (track), intensity (maximum sustained winds and central pressure), and size (radii of high-wind areas)-are estimated based on scientific processes. These estimates are then examined by typhoon forecasters and other internal and external experts, and issued as an official product when final approval has been given.

Recently, interest in the possibility of a washout effect using artificial rain enhancement technology to reduce high-concentration fine dust is growing. Therefore, in this study, the reduction rate of PM₁₀ concentration according to the amount of artificial rain enhancement was calculated during Asian Dust event which occurred over the Korean Peninsula on March 29, 2021 using air quality model [i.e., Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ)] combined with the mesoscale model for artificial rain enhancement (i.e., WRF-MMS). According to WRF-MMS, the washout effect lasted 5 hours, and the maximum precipitation rate was calculated to be 1.5 mm hr^-1. According the CMAQ results, the PM₁₀ reduction rate was up to 22%, and the affected area was calculated to be 6.4 times greater than that of the artificial rain enhancement area. Even if the maximum amount of precipitation per hour is lowered to 0.8 mm hr^-1 (about 50% level), the PM₁₀ reduction rate appears to be up to 16%. In other words, it is believed that this technique can be used as a direct method for reducing high-concentration fine dust even when the artificial rain enhancement effect is weak.

The prototype of the radiometric calibration algorithm, including the correction of scan mirror's angle, has been developed for the stationary meteorological sensor, firstly in Korea. We use this system on GOES-12 to evaluate two coefficients, slope and intercept. The evaluated coefficients show good agreement with the NESDIS's results for the five-case data. The calculated coefficients have been applied to the conversion from the measured counts to the radiance and the converting methods according to the scanning are investigated to enhance the radiometric accuracy.

This paper describes a IPv6 trial service provided by LG DACOM and discusses about the output of trial service. MIC has urged public organizations to introduce IPv6 technology into their network. As one of propelling policies, MIC and NIA launched some IPv6 trial project. LG DACOM, MIC's agent in doing IPv6 trial project, has selected three public organizations in order to deploy IPv6 based VoIP trial service. KMA, KISITI and MND gave out their different service requirements. In achieve this project we developed IPv6 supported voice IP phone, video IP phone, media gateway and IP-PBX. Furthermore, two KMA provincial offices adopted trial IP phone as working phone and replaced legacy PBX with IP-PBX. At the same time, public organizations introduced IPv6 technology into their local networks.

We present here the future changes in vertical distribution of temperature and tropopause height using the HadGEM2-AO climate model forced with Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) scenarios. Projected changes during the 21st century are shown as differences from the baseline period (1971~2000) for global vertical distribution of temperature and tropopause height. All RCP scenarios show warming throughout the troposphere and cooling in the stratosphere with amplified warming over the lower troposphere in the Northern Hemisphere high latitudes. Upper troposphere warming reaches a maximum in the tropics at the 300 hPa level associated with lapse-rate feedback. Also, the cooling in the stratosphere and the warming in the troposphere raises the height of the tropopause.

We have analyzed the characteristics of the sea surface winds and wind waves near the Korean marginal seas on the basis of prediction results of the sea surface winds from MM5/KMA model, which is being used for the operation system at the Korea Meteorological observation buoy data to verify the model results during Typhoon events. The correlation coefficients between the models and observation data reach up to about 95％, supporting that these models satisfactorily simulate the sea surface winds and wave heights even at the coastal regions. Based on these verification results, we have carried out numerical experiments about the wave modulation. When there exist an opposite strong current for the propagation direction of the waves or wind direction, wave height and length gets higher and shorter, and vice versa. It is proved that these modulations of wave parameters are well generated when wind speed is relatively week.

CMDPS (COMS Meteorological Data Processing System) is the operational meteorological products extraction system for data observed from COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) meteorological imager. CMDPS baseline products consist of 16 parameters including cloud information, water vapor products, surface information, environmental products and atmospheric motion vector. Additionally, CMDPS includes the function of calibration monitoring, and validation mechanism of the baseline products. The main objective of CMDPS validation module development is near-real time monitoring for the accuracy and reliability of the whole CMDPS products. Also, its long time validation statistics are used for upgrade of CMDPS such as algorithm parameter tuning and retrieval algorithm modification. This paper introduces the preliminary design on CMDPS validation module.

The sign language is a method of communication for deaf person. For sign communication, sign language and manual alphabet are used continuously. In this paper is proposed a system which recognize Korean sign language(KSL) and Korean manual alphabet(KMA) continuously. For recognizing KSL and KMA, basic elements for sign language, namely, the 14 hand directions, 23 hand postures, and 14 hand orientations are used. At first, this system recognize current motion state using speed and change of speed in motion by state automata. Using state, basic element classifiers using Fuzzy Min-Max Neural Network and Fuzzy Rule are executed. Meaning of signed gesture is selected by using basic elements which was recognized.

기후변화에 따른 기상변화가 집중호우 및 돌발홍수 등의 형태로 가시화 되고 있으며, IPCC 보고서(2007)는 21세기 후반까지 온도상승으로 인한 폭우 및 태풍이 점차 강력해질 것이라는 예측을 하였다. 이러한 예측의 대응으로 전 세계는 $CO_2$ 감축을 위한 노력이 진행중에 있으며, $CO_2$ 변화에 따른 미래 강수의 빈도해석을 해야한다는 주장이 제기되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 기상청 지역기후모델(KMA-RegCM3) A1B시나리오의 강우 자료를 이용하여 Quantile-Mapping을 실시한 후 지역빈도해석을 실시하였다. 대상지역은 국내 전역에 위치한 기상청 산하 58개 관측소를 선정하였다. Hosking(1997)이 제안한 L-moment 알고리즘을 이용하여 지역빈도해석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 A2 시나리오보다 상대적으로 $CO_2$ 배출량이 낮은 A1B시나리오 역시 모든 지역에서 확률강수량이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.
