The Korean Integrated Model (KIM) forecast system was extended to assimilate Horizontal Line-Of-Sight (HLOS) wind observations from the Atmospheric Laser Doppler Instrument (ALADIN) on board the Atmospheric Dynamic Mission (ADM)-Aeolus satellite. Quality control procedures were developed to assess the HLOS wind data quality, and observation operators added to the KIM three-dimensional variational data assimilation system to support the new observed variables. In a global cycling experiment, assimilation of ALADIN observations led to reductions in average root-mean-square error of 2.1% and 1.3% for the zonal and meridional wind analyses when compared against European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Integrated Forecast System (IFS) analyses. Even though the observable variable is wind, the assimilation of ALADIN observation had an overall positive impact on the analyses of other variables, such as temperature and specific humidity. As a result, the KIM 72-hour wind forecast fields were improved in the Southern Hemisphere poleward of 30 degrees.

한반도 주변을 연구해역으로 하는 지역 해양순환예측시스템을 이용하여 관측기반의 분석 자료인 Operational Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Ice Analysis(OSTIA) 해수면 온도 자료의 동화를 통한 초기장 개선효과가 황해, 동중국해 그리고 동해의 해수면온도 예측결과에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이를 위해서, 본 연구에서는 3차원 최적내삽법을 적용한 실험(Exp. DA)과 적용하지 않은 실험(Exp. NoDA)을 수행하여 각각의 실험결과를 관측자료와 비교 분석하였다. 2011년 9월 OSTIA 해수면 온도 자료와의 비교결과, Exp. NoDA는 24, 48, 72 예측시간에서 약 $1.5^{\circ}C$의 비교적 높은 Root Mean Square Error(RMSE)를 보였으나, Exp. DA에서는 모든 예측시간에서 $0.8^{\circ}C$ 이하의 상대적으로 낮은 RMSE가 나타났다. 특히, 초기 24시간 예측결과에서 RMSE는 $0.57^{\circ}C$를 보여 Exp. NoDA에 비해 예측성능이 크게 향상된 결과를 보였다. 해역별로는 황해와 동해에서 자료동화 적용 시, 60% 이상의 높은 RMSE 감소율이 나타났다. 기상청 8개 지점 연안 계류부이의 표층수온 자료를 이용하여 자료동화 효과를 계절적으로 살펴본 결과, 전반적으로 여름철을 제외한 모든 계절에서 자료동화 적용 후 70% 이상의 높은 RMSE 감소율을 보여 한반도 연안 표층수온의 단기 예측성이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 또한, 해수면 온도 자료의 동화로 인한 해양상층부의 수온구조 변화를 살펴보기 위해 동해를 대표해역으로 하여 Argo 수온 프로파일 자료와 실험결과를 비교하였다. 특히 연직 혼합이 강한 겨울철 해양 상층부(<100 m) 경우 Exp. DA의 RMSE가 Exp. NoDA에 비해 약 $1.5^{\circ}C$ 감소한 결과를 보여 해수면 온도의 자료동화 효과가 해양상층부의 수온 예측성 향상에 기여함을 확인하였다. 하지만, 겨울철 혼합층 아래에서는 Argo 관측 대비 수온 오차가 오히려 증가한 해역도 존재하여 해수면 온도 자료동화의 한계성도 나타났다.

Concentration of Air Quality Models (CMAQ) has a deep connection with emissions and wind fields. In particular the wind field is highly affected by local topography and plays an important role in transport and dispersion of contaminants from the pollution sources. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of interpolation on Air quality model. This study was designed to evaluate enhancement of MM5 and CMAQ predictions by using Four Dimensional Data Assimilation (FDDA), the SONDE data and the national meteorological station and the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). The alternative meteorological fields predicted with and without MODIS data were used to simulate spatial and temporal variations of ozone in combined with CMAQ on June 2006. The result of this study indicated that data assimilation using MODIS data provided an attractive method for generating realistic meteorological fields and dispersion fields of ozone in the Korea peninsular, because MODIS data in 10 km domain are grid horizontally and vertically. In order to ensure the success of Air quality model, it is necessary to FDDA using MODIS data.

Significant Wave Height (SWH) data measured by satellite altimeters (Topex/Poseidon, Jason-1, Envisat, and Jason-2) were validated in the seas around Korea by comparison with wave height measurements from marine meteorological buoy stations of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). A total of 1,070 collocation matchups between Ku-band satellite altimeter data and buoy data were obtained for the periods of the four satellites from 1992 to the present. In the case of C-band and S-band observations, 1,086 matchups were obtained and used to assess the accuracy of satellite SWH. Root-Mean-Square (RMS) errors of satellite SWH measured with Ku-band were evaluated to roughly 0.2_2.1 m. Comparisons of the RMS errors and bias errors between different frequency bands revealed that SWH observed with Ku-band was much more accurate than other frequencies, such as C-band or S-band. The differences between satellite SWH and buoy wave height, satellite minus buoy, revealed some dependence on the magnitude of the wave height. Satellite SWH tended to be overestimated at a range of low wave height of less than 1 m, and underestimated for high wave height of greater than 2 m. Such regional characteristics imply that satellite SWH should be carefully used when employed for diverse purposes such as validating wave model results or data assimilation procedures. Thus, this study confirmed that satellite SWH products should be continuously validated for regional applications.

수문순환에서 증발산의 정확한 산정은 수문분석 및 이해에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 특히, 증발산을 산정하는 방법은 다양하며, 각각 방법 마다 장단점을 가지고 있다. 그렇기 때문에, 각 다른 방법으로 산전된 결과를 융합하여 최적의 증발산을 산출해야할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 대표적으로 인공위성 기반의 증발산 모델인 revised RS-PM과 MS-PT 방법에서 산출된 증발산과 모델 자료인 Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS)와 Global Land Evaporation Amsterdam Model (GLEAM)자료들을 융합함으로써 최적의 증발산을 산출하고자 하였다. 연구 지역인 청미천과 설마천에서의 플럭스 타워에서 융합된 증발산에 대해서 검증을 실시하였다. 통계학적인 결과(상관계수, 일치도, MAE, RMSE)를 확인하였을 때, 기존의 인공위성과 모델에서 산출되는 증발산 결과에 비해 향상되는 결괄르 나타내었다. 전반적으로 결과를 확인하였을 때, 융합된 자료가 보다 향상된 결과를 보일 수 있을 것이라는 것을 나타내었으며, 추후에는 더 많은 모델을 사용하여 융합함으로써 보다 정확한 결과를 산출 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

A data assimilation system for a 1-dimensional mixed layer model has been constructed using the adjoint method. The classical adjoint method does not work well for the mixed layer variabilities due to the occurrence of spikes in the gradient of the cost function. To solve this problem, the two techniques of scaling the cost function and optimization in the frequency space are used. As a result, the heat flux can be reliably estimated with an accuracy of 8Wm$^{-2}$ rms error in the identical twin experiments. We then applied this system to the tropical Pacific TOGA-TAO buoy data. The air-sea heat flux as well as the mixed layer variability were estimated in close approximation to the buoy data, particularly on time scales longer than the seasonal one.

In this study, we evaluated daily root zone soil moisture dynamics and agricultural drought using a near-surface soil moisture data assimilation scheme with Soil Moisture Active & Passive (SMAP, $3km{\times}3km$) soil moisture footprints under different hydro-climate conditions. Satellite-based LANDSAT and MODIS image footprints were converted to spatially-distributed soil moisture estimates based on the regression model, and the converted soil moisture distributions were used for assessing uncertainties and applicability of SMAP data at fields. In order to overcome drawbacks of the discontinuity of SMAP data at the spatio-temporal scales, the data assimilation was applied to SMAP for estimating daily soil moisture dynamics at the spatial domain. Then, daily soil moisture values were used to estimate weekly agricultural drought based on the Soil Moisture Deficit Index (SMDI). The Yongdam-dam and Soyan river-dam watersheds were selected for validating our proposed approach. As a results, the MODIS/SMAP soil moisture values were relatively overestimated compared to those of the TDR-based measurements and LANDSAT data. When we applied the data assimilation scheme to SMAP, uncertainties were highly reduced compared to the TDR measurements. The estimated daily root zone soil moisture dynamics and agricultural drought from SMAP showed the variability at the sptio-temporal scales indicating that soil moisture values are influenced by not only the precipitation, but also the land surface characteristics. These findings can be useful for establishing efficient water management plans in hydrology and agricultural drought.

A new soil moisture initialization scheme is applied to the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) Global Seasonal forecasting system version 6 (GloSea6). It is designed to ingest the microwave soil moisture retrievals from Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) radiometer using the Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter (LETKF). In this technical note, we describe the procedure of the newly-adopted initialization scheme, the change of soil moisture states by assimilation, and the forecast skill differences for the surface temperature and precipitation by GloSea6 simulation from two preliminary experiments. Based on a 4-year analysis experiment, the soil moisture from the land-surface model of current operational GloSea6 is found to be drier generally comparing to SMAP observation. LETKF data assimilation shows a tendency toward being wet globally, especially in arid area such as deserts and Tibetan Plateau. Also, it increases soil moisture analysis increments in most soil levels of wetness in land than current operation. The other experiment of GloSea6 forecast with application of the new initialization system for the heat wave case in 2020 summer shows that the memory of soil moisture anomalies obtained by the new initialization system is persistent throughout the entire forecast period of three months. However, averaged forecast improvements are not substantial and mixed over Eurasia during the period of forecast: forecast skill for the precipitation improved slightly but for the surface air temperature rather degraded. Our preliminary results suggest that additional elaborate developments in the soil moisture initialization are still required to improve overall forecast skills.
