The customer side operation is getting more complex in a smart grid environment because of the adoption of renewable resources. In performing energy management planning or scheduling, it is essential to forecast non-controllable resources accurately and robustly. The PV system is one of the common renewable energy resources in customer side. Its output depends on weather and physical characteristics of the PV system. Thus, weather information is essential to predict the amount of PV system output. However, weather forecast usually does not include enough solar irradiation information. In this study, a PV system power output prediction model (PPM) under limited weather information is proposed. In the proposed model, meteorological radiation model (MRM) is used to improve cloud cover radiation model (CRM) to consider the seasonal effect of the target region. The results of the proposed model are compared to the result of the conventional CRM prediction method on the PV generation obtained from a field test site. With the PPM, root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE) are improved by 23.43% and 33.76%, respectively, compared to CRM for all days; while in clear days, they are improved by 53.36% and 62.90%, respectively.

The objectives of this study are to develop a hydrological drought outlook system using GloSea5 (Global Seasonal forecasting system 5) which has recently been used by KMA (Korea Meteorological Association) and to evaluate the forecasting capability. For drought analysis, the bilinear interpolation method was applied to spatially downscale the low-resolution outputs of GloSea5 and PR (Predicted Runoff) was produced for different lead times (i.e., 1-, 2-, 3-month) running LSM (Land Surface Model). The behavior of PR anomaly was similar to that of HR (Historical Runoff) and the estimated values were negative up to lead times of 1- and 2-month. For the evaluation of drought outlook, SRI (Standardized Runoff Index) was selected and PR_SRI estimated using PR. ROC score was 0.83, 0.71, 0.60 for 1-, 2- and 3-month lead times, respectively. It also showed the hit rate is high and false alarm rate is low as shorter lead time. The temporal Correlation Coefficient (CC) was 0.82, 0.60, 0.31 and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) was 0.52, 0.86, 1.20 for 1-, 2-, 3-month lead time, respectively. The accuracy of PR_SRI was high up to 1- and 2-month lead time on local regions except the Gyeonggi and Gangwon province. It can be concluded that GloSea5 has high applicability for hydrological drought outlook.

This study evaluates the performance of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in reproducing the present-day (1981~2005) precipitation over Far East Asia and South Korea. The WRF model is configured with 25-km horizontal resolution within the context of the COordinated Regional climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) - East Asia Phase 2. The initial and lateral boundary forcing for the WRF simulation are derived from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast Interim reanalysis. According to our results, WRF model shows a reasonable performance to reproduce the features of precipitation, such as seasonal climatology, annual and inter-annual variabilities, seasonal march of monsoon rainfall and extreme precipitation. In spite of such model's ability to simulate major features of precipitation, systematic biases are found in the downscaled simulation in some sub-regions and seasons. In particular, the WRF model systematically tends to overestimate (underestimate) precipitation over Far East Asia (South Korea), and relatively large biases are evident during the summer season. In terms of inter-annual variability, WRF shows an overall smaller (larger) standard deviation in the Far East Asia (South Korea) compared to observation. In addition, WRF overestimates the frequency and amount of weak precipitation, but underestimates those of heavy precipitation. Also, the number of wet days, the precipitation intensity above the 95 percentile, and consecutive wet days (consecutive dry days) are overestimated (underestimated) over eastern (western) part of South Korea. The results of this study can be used as reference data when providing information about projections of fine-scale climate change over East Asia.

K-water의 분포형 강우-유출모형인 K-DRUM(K-water hydrologic & hydraulic Distributed RUnoff Model)은 단기예측 강수자료를 통해 댐의 예측 유출량 및 수위를 산출하는 모형으로, 장기적인 수문기상정보를 획득하기 위해서는 장기예측 강수자료를 입력자료로 사용할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 2014년 국내에 도입된 기상청의 계절예측시스템인 GloSea5(Global Seasonal Forecast System version 5) 예측 강수량 앙상블을 K-DRUM의 입력자료로 사용하는 프로그램을 개발하였으며, 이를 통해 산출된 예측 유출량 앙상블 자료를 기반으로 댐 운영자에게 수문기상정보를 제공하는 웹 기반 확률장기예보 활용 물관리 의사결정지원시스템을 함께 구축하였다. GloSea5의 예측 결과를 입력자료로 사용하기 위하여 대상 댐 유역에 대해 전처리 과정을 수행한 후 편의보정기법을 적용하여 예측 강수 앙상블 자료를 산출하였으며, 이를 K-DRUM에 입력하여 수행하여 예측 유출량을 산출하였다. 이 과정에서 편의보정된 강수량과 강우-유출모형에서 산정된 예측 유출량은 그래프와 테이블로 함께 표출할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 시스템의 사용자는 예측 강수량과 유출량을 토대로 댐의 방류량을 조정함으로써 댐 수위 모의 운영을 수행할 수 있게 되어 장기적인 물관리 의사결정에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

This study assesses the performance of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in reproducing regional climate over CORDEX-East Asia Phase 2 domain with different cumulus parameterization schemes [Kain-Fritch (KF), Betts-Miller-Janjic (BM), and Grell-Devenyi-Ensemble (GD)]. The model is integrated for 27 months from January 1979 to March 1981 and the initial and boundary conditions are derived from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast Interim Reanalysis (ERA-Interim). The WRF model reasonably reproduces the temperature and precipitation characteristics over East Asia, but the regional scale responses are very sensitive to cumulus parameterization schemes. In terms of mean bias, WRF model with BM scheme shows the best performance in terms of summer/winter mean precipitation as well as summer mean temperature throughout the North East Asia. In contrast, the seasonal mean precipitation is generally overestimated (underestimated) by KF (GD) scheme. In addition, the seasonal variation of the temperature and precipitation is well simulated by WRF model, but with an overestimation in summer precipitation derived from KF experiment and with an underestimation in wet season precipitation from BM and GD schemes. Also, the frequency distribution of daily precipitation derived from KF and BM experiments (GD experiment) is well reproduced, except for the overestimation (underestimation) in the intensity range above (less) then $2.5mm\;d^{-1}$. In the case of the amount of daily precipitation, all experiments tend to underestimate (overestimate) the amount of daily precipitation in the low-intensity range < $4mm\;d^{-1}$ (high-intensity range > $12mm\;d^{-1}$). This type of error is largest in the KF experiment.

최근 들어 세계의 연중 기후 변화에 주된 요인으로써 엘니뇨와 같은 현상이 매우 잦아졌다. 많은 기상수문학자들이 강수와 유량에 대한 엘니뇨 남방진동의 영향에 대해 연구하고 있지만, 수문변량들은 큰 지역적 변동을 갖고 있기 때문에 결정적인 인과관계를 찾아내는데 있어서 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 엘니뇨-남방진동과 한국에서의 수문변량들 간의 계절석 관계를 고찰하였다. 엘니뇨-난방진동을 정량적으로 표현해 주는 지수로써 남방진동지수를 사용하였고, 월강수량 자료, 월평균기온 자료 그리고 댐의 월유입량 자료를 표준정규분포를 가지는 표준정규지수로 변환하여 사용하였다. 계절적 관계를 파악하기 위해 난방진동지수와 수문변량의 월 자료는 봄 (3월-5월), 여름(6윌-8월), 가을(9월-11월) 그리고 겨울 (12윌-2월)로 분류되었다. ENSO episode에 대한 수문변량들의 조건부 초과확률과 분포형태를 바탕으로 분석을 수행한 결과 전반적으로 Warm ENSO episode의 경우 강수량 증가와 기온 상승과 관련이 있고, Cold ENSO episode의 경우 강수량 감소와 기온 하강과 관계가 있다. 그러나 일부 지역에서는 이러한 전반적인 결과와 상이한 결과가 나타나기도 하였다.

This study evaluates the long-term seasonal predictability of summer (June, July and August) heatwaves over South Korea using 30-year (1989~2018) Hindcast data of the Pusan National University Coupled General Circulation Model (PNU CGCM)-Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) chain. Heatwave indices such as Number of Heatwave days (HWD), Heatwave Intensity (HWI) and Heatwave Warning (HWW) are used to explore the long-term seasonal predictability of heatwaves. The prediction skills for HWD, HWI, and HWW are evaluated in terms of the Temporal Correlation Coefficient (TCC), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Skill Scores such as Heidke Skill Score (HSS) and Hit Rate (HR). The spatial distributions of daily maximum temperature simulated by WRF are similar overall to those simulated by NCEP-R2 and PNU CGCM. The WRF tends to underestimate the daily maximum temperature than observation because the lateral boundary condition of WRF is PNU CGCM. According to TCC, RMSE and Skill Score, the predictability of daily maximum temperature is higher in the predictions that start from the February and April initial condition. However, the PNU CGCM-WRF chain tends to overestimate HWD, HWI and HWW compared to observations. The TCCs for heatwave indices range from 0.02 to 0.31. The RMSE, HR and HSS values are in the range of 7.73 to 8.73, 0.01 to 0.09 and 0.34 to 0.39, respectively. In general, the prediction skill of the PNU CGCM-WRF chain for heatwave indices is highest in the predictions that start from the February and April initial condition and is lower in the predictions that start from January and March. According to TCC, RMSE and Skill Score, the predictability is more influenced by lead time than by the effects of topography and/or terrain feature because both HSS and HR varies in different leads over the whole region of South Korea.

The dynamical model forecasts using state-of-art general circulation models (GCMs) have some limitations to simulate the real climate system since they do not depend on the past history. One of the alternative methods to correct model errors is to use the canonical correlation analysis (CCA) correction method. CCA forecasts at the present time show better skill than dynamical model forecasts especially over the midlatitudes. Model outputs are adjusted based on the CCA modes between the model forecasts and the observations. This study builds a canonical correlation prediction model for subseasonal (June) precipitation. The predictors are circulation fields over western North Pacific from the Global Seasonal Forecasting System version 5 (GloSea5) and observed snow cover extent over Eurasia continent from Climate Data Record (CDR). The former is based on simultaneous teleconnection between the western North Pacific and the East Asia, and the latter on lagged teleconnection between the Eurasia continent and the East Asia. In addition, we suggest a technique for improving forecast skill by applying the ensemble canonical correlation (ECC) to individual canonical correlation predictions.

본 연구에서는 한국기상청의 장기예측시스템 현업모형인 GloSea5의 성층권 극소용돌이 강화사례에 대한 예측성을 진단 및 검증하였다. 진단에 사용된 통계량은 이상상관계수(ACC, Anomaly Correlation Coefficient)와 평균제곱근 예측성(MSSS, Mean Squared Skill Score)으로, 1991-2010년간 발생한 14개 극소용돌이 강화사례에 대한 GloSea5의 예측성한계는 ACC를 기준으로 13.6일, MSSS를 기준으로 18.5일로 나타났다. 모형의 평균제곱오차(MSE, Mean Squared Error)의 각 성분을 정량적으로 비교분석한 결과, 예측성을 저하시키는 가장 큰 요인은 맴돌이(에디)오차로, 그 중 에디의 위상오차가 전체 예측오차의 큰 부분을 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 극소용돌이 현상이 수평적으로 큰 규모를 가지는 만큼 동서파수 1의 에디와 관련한 오차가 더 작은 규모의 에디에 비해 가장 크게 예측오차에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 분석한 사례들에 대하여 GloSea5의 대류권 순환에 대한 예측성은 성층권 예측성과는 큰 관련이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 단순히 GloSea5 모형이 성층권-대류권 접합과정을 잘 모의하지 못하기 때문에 나타난 결과로 유추할 수 있다. 하지만, 극소용돌이 강화에 의한 영향에 비해 대류권에서 내부변동성의 절대적인 크기가 종종 크게 나타난다는 점을 감안하면, 모형에서 성층권-대류권 접합을 잘 모의하고 있더라도 극소용돌이 강화 자체만의 영향이 뚜렷하게 나타나지 않았을 가능성 또한 간과하면 안 될 것이다.
