In this study, the net solar radiation fluxes at the surface are retrieved by updating an existing algorithm to be applicable for MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations, in which linear relationships between the solar radiation reflected from the top of atmosphere and the net surface solar radiation are employed. The results of this study have been evaluated through intercomparison with existing Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) data products and ground-based data from pyranometers at Gangneung-Wonju National University (GWNU) and the Southern Great Plains (SGP) of observatory of Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) site. Prior to the comparison of the surface radiation energy in relation to the energy balance of the earth, the radiation energy of the upper part of the atmosphere was compared. As a result, the coefficient of determination was over 0.9, showing considerable similarity, but the Root-Mean-Square-Deviation (RMSD) value was somewhat different, and the downward and net solar-radiation energy also showed similar results. The surface solar radiation data measured from pyranometers at Gangneung-Wonju National University (GWNU) and Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) observatory are used to validate the solar radiation data produced in this study. When compared to the GWNU, The results of this study show smaller RMSD values than CERES data, showing slightly better agreements with the surface data. On the other hand, when compared with the data from ARM SGP observatory, the results of this study bear slightly larger RMSD values than those for CERES. The downward and net solar radiation estimated by the algorithm of this study at a high spatial resolution are expected to be very useful in the near future after refinements on the identified problems, especially for those area without ground measurements of solar radiation.

Drought events are not clear when those start and end compared with other natural disasters. Because drought events have different timing and severity of damage depending on the region, various studies are being conducted using satellite images to identify regional drought occurrence differences. In this study, we investigated the applicability of drought assessment using the Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) based on Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite images. The ESI is an indicator of agricultural drought that describes anomalies in actual and reference evapotranspiration (ET) ratios that are retrieved using remotely sensed inputs of Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Leaf Area Index (LAI). However, these approaches have a limited spatial resolution when mapping detailed vegetation stress caused by drought, and drought hazard in the actual crop cultivation areas due to the small crop cultivation in South Korea. For these reasons, the development of a drought index that provides detailed higher resolution ESI, a 500 m resolution image is essential to improve the country's drought monitoring capabilities. The newly calculated ESI was verified through the existing 5 km resolution ESI and historical records for drought impacts. This study evaluates the performance of the recently developed 500 m resolution ESI for severe and extreme drought events that occurred in South Korea in 2001, 2009, 2014, and 2017. As a result, the two ES Is showed high correlation and tendency using Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis. In addition, it will provide the necessary information on the spatial resolution to evaluate regional drought hazard assessment and and the small-scale cultivation area across South Korea.

Wildfires release a large amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere. Fire radiative power (FRP) data obtained from geostationary satellites can play an important role for tracing the GHGs. This paper describes an estimation of the Himawari-8 FRP and fire emissions for Samcheock and Gangnueng wildfire in 6 May 2017. The FRP estimated using Himawari-8 well represented the temporal variability of the fire intensity, which cannot be captured by MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) because of its limited temporal resolution. Fire emissions calculated from the Himwari-8 FRP showed a very similar time-series pattern compared with the AirKorea observations, but 1 to 3 hour's time-lag existed because of the distance between the station and the wildfire location. The estimated emissions were also compared with those of a previous study which analyzed fire damages using high-resolution images. They almost coincided with 12% difference for Samcheock and 2% difference for Gangneung, demonstrating a reliability of the estimation of fire emissions using our Himawari-8 FRP without high-resolution images. This study can be a reference for estimating fire emissions using the current and forthcoming geostationary satellites in East Asia and can contribute to improving accuracy of meteorological products such as AOD (aerosol optical depth).

Nowadays, due to various pollution sources, it is essential for environmental scientists to monitor water quality. Phytoplanktons form the end of the food chain in water bodies and are one of the most important biological indicators in water pollution studies. Chlorophyll-A, a green pigment, is found in all phytoplankton. Chlorophyll-A concentration indicates phytoplankton biomass directly. Therefore, Chlorophyll-A is an indirect indicator of pollutants, including phosphorus and nitrogen, and their refinement and control are important. The present study, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite images were used to estimate the chlorophyll-A concentration in southern coastal waters in the Caspian Sea. For this purpose, Multi-layer perceptron neural networks (NNs) were applied which contained three and four feed-forward layers. The best three-layer NN has 15 neurons in its hidden layer and the best four-layer one has 5 in each. The three- and four- layer networks both resulted in similar root mean square errors (RMSE), 0.1($\frac{{\mu}g}{l}$), however, the four-layer NNs proved superior in terms of R² and also required less training data. Accordingly, a four-layer feed-forward NN with 5 neurons in each hidden layer, is the best network structure for estimating Chlorophyll-A concentration in the southern coastal waters of the Caspian Sea.

최근 원격탐사기법을 이용한 많은 가뭄평가기법들이 개발되었으나 산림과 함께 산악지형이 우세한 우리나라의 경우 지형특성으로 인하여 가뭄평가시 불확실성이 증가하게 된다. 특히, 농업가뭄은 기후와 지표특성에 큰 영향을 받기 때문에 기후특성만을 고려한 가뭄지수는 실제 필요한 농업가뭄의 특성을 반영하는데 있어서 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기후와 지표특성을 함께 고려할 수 있는 토양수분을 이용한 가뭄평가기법(Drought Assessment Scheme)을 개발하였다. 가뭄평가기법을 위하여 역추적기법(Inverse Modeling-IM) 기반의 자료동화기법(Data Assimilation, DA)을 이용하였다. 자료동화기법은 1-Dimensional (1-D) 기반의 토양의 물리적 특성을 고려하는 SWMI_ST 모형과 최적화 알고리즘(유전자 알고리즘, Genetic Algorithm-GA)을 연계하여 실측 및 위성기반의 토양수분자료로부터 토양의 수리학적 매개변수(${\alpha}$, n, ${\Theta}_{res}$, ${\Theta}_{sat}$, $K_{sat}$)를 추출한다. 본 연구에서는 LANDSAT(30 m X 30 m) 및 MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS, 500 m X 500 m) 이미지자료를 이용하여 시 공간적으로 분포되어 있는 토양수분을 산정하였으며, 이후 자료동화기법을 이용하여 LANDSAT/MODIS 토양수분자료로 부터 공간적으로 분포되어 있는 토양의 매개변수를 추출하였다. 추출된 매개변수, GIS 기반의 지표피복 및 기상자료를 이용하여 장기간의 토양수분을 산정 및 예측 할 수 있다. 고해상도의 이미지 자료를 사용하는 가뭄평가기법은 필지~시 군 단위까지 실제 우리나라 지형특성을 고려하여 효율적으로 가뭄을 모니터링 및 예측 할 수 있다.

We have estimated the vertical column density (VCD) of formaldehyde (HCHO) on a global scale using a multiple linear regression method (MRM) with Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) and Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data. HCHO VCDs were estimated in regions of biogenic, pyrogenic, and anthropogenic emissions using independent variables, including $NO_2$ VCD, land surface temperature (LST), an enhanced vegetation index (EVI), and the mean fire radiative power (MFRP), which are strongly correlated with HCHO. To evaluate the HCHO estimates obtained using the MRM, we compared estimates of HCHO VCD data measured by OMI ($HCHO_{OMI}$) with those estimated by multiple linear regression equations (MRE) ($HCHO_{MRE}$). Good MRM performances were found, having the average statistical values (R = 0.91, slope = 1.03, mean bias = $-0.12{\times}10^{15}molecules\;cm^{-2}$, percent difference = 11.27%) between $HCHO_{MRE}$ and $HCHO_{OMI}$ in our study regions where high HCHO levels are present. Our results demonstrate that the MRM can be a useful tool for estimating atmospheric HCHO levels.

The synoptic structural characteristics associated with heavy snowfall (Bukgangneung: 31.3 cm) that occurred in the Yeongdong area on 20 January 2017 was investigated using surface and upper-level weather charts, European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis data, radiosonde data, and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud product. The cold dome and warm trough of approximately 500 hPa appeared with tropopause folding. As a result, cold and dry air penetrated into the middle and upper levels. At this time, the enhanced cyclonic potential vorticity caused strong baroclinicity, resulting in the sudden development of low pressure at the surface. Under the synoptic structure, localized heavy snowfall occurred in the Yeongdong area within a short time. These results can be confirmed from the vertical analysis of radiosonde data and the characteristics of the MODIS cloud product.

본 연구에서는 다중회귀분석모형(MLRM)과 MODIS (MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) LST (Land Surface Temperature) 자료를 이용하여 전국 공간토양수분을 산정하였다. 공간토양수분을 산정하기 위한 과정은 크게 두가지로 구분된다. 첫 번째로 기존의 MODIS LST 자료를 조건부 합성 보정기법을 적용하여 실측 LST 자료와 비교하여 위성 LST 자료가 갖고 있는 오차를 보정하였다. 그 결과, 조건부 합성 보정기법을 적용하기전 전국 71개 지상 관측지점에서 관측한 실측 LST와 MODIS LST의 R2는 전체 평균 0.70으로 어는정도 유의성 있는 상관관계를 나타냈으나 조건부 합성 보정기법을 적용한 후 실측 LST와 MODIS LST의 R2는 전체 평균 0.92로 상당히 크게 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 두 번째로 보정된 MODIS LST를 이용하여 다중회귀분석 모형을 개발하고 토양수분을 예측하는 단계로 입력자료로 위성영상 자료와 관측자료를 융합하여 사용하였다. 위성영상 자료로는 보정된 MODIS LST와 MODIS NDV를 구축하였고 일단위 강수량 및 일조시간의 기상자료는 기상청으로부터 전국 68개 지점에 대해 구축하여 IDW 공간보간기법을 이용한 공간자료로 구축하였다. 토양수분 결과를 비교하기 위한 관측 토양수분은 자동농업기상관측(Automated Agriculture Observing System, AAOS)지점에서 2013년 1월부터 2015년 12월까지의 실측 일단위 토양수분 자료를 구축하여 사용하였다. 다중회귀분석 모형은 각각의 입력자료를 독립인자로서 조합하여 12개의 시나리오를 만들었다. 시공간적 경향을 고려하기 위하여 계절별, 토양 토성(soil texture)를 구분하여 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 관측 토양수분과 모의 토양수분을 비교한 결과 $R^2$가 0.80 (철원), 0.90 (춘천), 0.80 (수원), 0.63 (서산), 0.77 (청주), 0.82 (전주), 0.52 (순천), 0.63 (진주), 0.99 (보성)로 높은 상관성을 보였다. 본 연구에서는 토양수분을 예측하기 위한 인자 중 가장 민간함 LST를 보정하지 않는 토양수분 예측 방법은 상당한 오차를 포함하게 되어 실측 토양수분 결과와 크게 차이가 나타남을 보여주었다.
