The purpose of this study is to investigate predictability of the seasonal simulation by the METRI (Meteorological Research Institute) AGCM (Atmospheric General Circulation Model), which is a long-term prediction model for the METRI 3-month prediction system. We examine the performance skill of climate simulation and predictability by the analysis of variance of the METRI AGCM, focusing on the precipitation, 850 hPa temperature, and 500 hPa geopotential height. According to the result, the METRI AGCM shows systematic errors with seasonal march, and represents large errors over the equatorial region, compared to the observation. Also, the response of the METRI AGCM by the variation of the sea surface temperature is obvious for the wintertime and springtime. However, the METRI AGCM does not show the significant ENSO-related signal in autumn. In case of prediction over the east Asian region, errors between the prediction results and the observation are not quite large with the lead-time. However, in the predictability assessment using the analysis of variance method, longer lead-time makes the prediction better, and the predictability becomes better in the springtime.

This study investigates characteristics of wintertime simulation conducted by METRI AGCM utilizing new radiation parameterization scheme. New radiation scheme is based on the method of Chou et al., and is utilized in the METRI AGCM recently. In order to analyze characteristics of seasonal simulation in boreal winter, hindcast dataset from 1979 to 2005 is produced in two experiments - control run (CTRL) and new model's run (RADI). Also, changes in performance skill and predictability due to implementation of new radiation scheme are examined. In the wintertime simulation, the RADI experiment tends to reduce warm bias in the upper troposphere probably due to intensification of longwave radiative cooling over the whole troposphere. The radiative cooling effect is related to weakening of longitudinal temperature gradient, leading to weaker tropospheric jet in the upper troposphere. In addition, changes in vertical thermodynamic structure have an influence on reduction of tropical precipitation. Moreover, the RADI case is less sensitive to variation of tropical sea surface temperature than the CTRL case, even though the RADI case simulates the mean climate pattern well. It implies that the RADI run does not have significant improvement in seasonal prediction point of view.

우리나라도 세계적인 기후변화 추세에 따라 장래 수자원의 변동이 예상되고 있다. 이러한 문제에 대응하고 피해를 최소화하기 위해서는 미래의 기후를 예측하는 기상모형으로부터 유용한 정보를 추출하여 활용하는 방안을 마련하여야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 불확실성 분석을 통한 수자원 운영의 중심이 되는 국내 유역들에 대한 GCM모형의 활용성을 평가하는 것이다. 주된 기법은 Kolmogorov-Smirnov test를 이용하여 관측값과 GCM 모의값의 유의성을 평가하는 것이다. GCM의 시공간적 특성을 고려한 기법이 제안되었으며, 유럽의 ECMWF모형과 국내 기상연구소에서 모의한 서로 다른 해상도를 지니는 Metri-GCM의 표면 강수량과 표면온도 자료 등이 추출되어 적용되었다. 관측값으로는 유역대표 강수량, 온도, 유량 등의 자료가 적용되었다. 분석 결과 GCM의 유역별 적용성을 확인할 수 있었는데, 특히 온도 자료의 경우 대부분의 유역에 모든 모형의 모의 결과가 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.
