The aerosol optical properties such as depolarization ratio (${\delta}$) and aerosol extinction-to-backscatter ratios (S, LIDAR ratio) and ${\AA}ngstr{\ddot{o}m$ exponent (${\AA}$) derived from measurement with AERONET sun/sky radiometer at Gangneung-Wonju National University (GWNU), Gangneung, Korea ($37.77^{\circ}N$, $128.87^{\circ}E$) during a winter season (December 2014 - February 2015) are presented. The PM concentration measurements are conducted simultaneously and used to identify the high-PM events. The observation period was divided into three cases according to the PM concentrations. We analysed the ${\delta}$, S, and ${\AA}$ during these high PM-events. These aerosol optical properties are calculated by the sun/sky radiometer data and used to classify a type of aerosols (e.g., dust, anthropogenic pollution). The higher values of ${\delta}$ with lower values of S and ${\AA}$ were measured for the dust particles. The mean values of ${\delta}$, S, and ${\AA}$ at 440-870 nm wavelength pair (${\AA}_{440-870}$) for the Asia dust were 0.19-0.24, 36-56 sr, and 0.48, respectively. The anthropogenic aerosol plumes are distinguished with the lower values of ${\delta}$ and higher values of ${\AA}$. The mean values of spectral ${\delta}$ and ${\AA}_{440-870}$ for this case varied 0.06-0.16 and 1.33-1.39, respectively. We found that aerosol columnar optical properties obtained from the sun/sky radiometer measurement are useful to identify the aerosol type. Moreover, the columnar aerosol optical properties calculated based on sun/sky radiometer measurements such as ${\delta}$, S, and ${\AA}$ will be further used for the validation of aerosol parameters obtained from LIDAR observation as well as for quantification of the air quality.

본 연구에서는 일본 오사카에서 AERONET 선포토미터로 관측된 데이터를 분석하여 440, 675, 870, 1020 nm 파장에서의 입자 편광소멸도를 산출하였다. 산출된 결과는 같은 지역에서 측정된 라이다 자료로부터 얻어진 532 nm에서의 입자 편광소멸도와 비교하였다. 두 값은 440 nm를 제외하고는 잘 일치되는 결과를 보였고, 상관계수($R^2$)는 440, 675, 870, 1020 nm에서 각각 0.28, 0.81, 0.88 0.89의 값을 보였다. 가장 높은 상관계수를 보인 1020 nm에서의 입자 편광소멸도를 기준으로 값의 변화에 따른 입자의 혼합정도를 확인하였을 때, 순수 황사의 경우 높은 편광소멸도를 보이고 오염입자가 혼합될수록 값이 낮아짐을 보였다. 이는 단산란 알베도와 입자 크기 분포를 통하여 확인하였다.

In this study star photometry was applied to retrieve aerosol optical thickness (AOT) at night. The star photometry system consisted of small refractor, optical filters, CCD camera, and driving mount and was located in Suwon. The calibration constants were retrieved from the astronomical Langley method but standard deviations of these were more than 10% of the mean values. After the calibration the nighttime AOT was retrieved and cloud-screened in clear six days from 25 Nov. 2014 to 17 Jan. 2015. To estimate the quality of the measurements the nighttime AOT was combined with daytime AOT retrieved from sky-radiometer that was located in Seoul and 17 km away from the star photometry system. In spite of the uncertainty of the calibration constants and the spatial difference of two observation systems, the temporal changes of the nighttime AOT coincided with the daytime. The nighttime ${\AA}ngstr{\ddot{o}}m$ exponent was about 20% lower and more variable than the daytime because of the uncertainty of the calibration constants. If the calibration process is more precise, the combination of star and sun or sky photometry system can monitor the air pollution day and night constantly.

본 연구에서는 제주 고산과 공주에서 AERONET 선포토미터로 관측된 데이터를 분석하여 440, 675, 870, 1020 nm에서의 입자 편광소멸도를 산출하였다. 산출된 결과는 같은 지역에서 측정된 라이다 자료로부터 얻어진 532 nm에서의 입자 편광소멸도와 비교하여 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 선포토미터와 동 시간대에 라이다로 측정된 고도별 편광소멸도의 분석을 통하여 2 km 이상 상층으로 많은 양의 황사가 이동할 때 높은 편광소멸도를 보임을 확인하였다. 또한, 상대적으로 낮은 편광소멸도가 측정된 경우에도 대기 상층에서 황사가 많이 이동하는 경우를 확인하였다. 2 km 이하 하층의 경우에는 유입되는 황사가 적거나 오염 입자와의 혼합으로 상층에 비하여 낮은 편광소멸도를 보였다.

This study has developed a technique to divide the aerosol optical depth of the entire aerosol (${\tau}_{total}$) into the dust optical depth (${\tau}_D$) and the pollution particle optical depth (${\tau}_P$) using the AERONET sun/sky radiometer data provided in Version 3. This method was applied to the analysis of AERONET data observed from 2006 to 2016 in Beijing, China, Seoul and Gosan, Korea and Osaka, Japan and the aerosol optical depth trends of different types of atmospheric aerosols in Northeast Asia were analyzed. The annual variation of ${\tau}_{total}$ showed a tendency to decrease except for Seoul where observation data were limited. However, ${\tau}_D$ tended to decrease when ${\tau}_{total}$ were separated as ${\tau}_D$ and ${\tau}_P$, but ${\tau}_P$ tended to increase except for Osaka. This is because the concentration of airborne aerosols, represented by Asian dust in Northeast Asia, is decreased in both mass concentration and optical concentration. However, even though the mass concentration of pollution particles generated by human activity tends to decrease, Which means that the optical concentration represented as aerosol optical depth is increasing in Northeast Asia.

Aerosol optical thickness (AOT) and ${\AA}ngstr{\ddot{o}}m$ exponents were monitored at the KIU site ($N35.91^{\circ}$, $E128.80^{\circ}$) during the continuous observation period of 5 November 2010~19 March 2013 using a Microtops-II handheld munti-wavelenth radiometer. Comparisons of AOT values from the Microtops-II with the Sun-sky radiometer data from the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) showed very good agreements: correlation coefficients are lies between 0.98 and 0.99, slopes range from 0.98 to 1.01, and intercepts are smaller than 0.008 at five wavelengths (380 nm, 440 nm, 500 nm, 675 nm, 870 nm). During the observation period, the Microtops-II AOT and ${\AA}ngstr{\ddot{o}}m$ exponents are ${\tau}_{500}=0.560{\pm}0.351$, ${\alpha}_{500-870}=1.135{\pm}0.445$. Fine mode aerosols appear to dominate in the study region with significant contributions from small particles.

The vertical profiles and optical properties of Asian dust are investigated using ground-based measurements from 1998 to 2002. Vertical profiles of aerosol extinction coefficient are evaluated using MPL (Micro Pulse Lidar) data. Optical parameters such as aerosol optical thickness ($\tau$), ${\AA}ngstr\ddot{o}m$ exponent ($\alpha$), single scattering albedo ($\omega$), refractive index, and volume size distribution are analyzed with sun/sky radiometer data for the same period. We can separate aerosol vertical profiles into three categories. First category named as 'Asian dust case', which aerosol extinction coefficient is larger than $0.15km^{-1}$ and dust layer exists from surface up to 3-4km. Second category named as 'Elevated aerosol case', which aerosol layer exists between 2 and 6km with 1-2.5km thickness, and extinction coefficient is smaller than $0.15km^{-1}$. Third category named as 'Clear sky case', which aerosol extinction coefficient appears smaller than $0.15km^{-1}$. and shows that diurnal variation of background aerosol in urban area. While optical parameters for first category indicate that $\tau$ and $\alpha$ are $0.63{\pm}0.14$, $0.48{\pm}0.19$, respectively. Also, aerosol volume concentration is increased for range of 1 and $4{\mu}m$, in coarse mode. Optical parameters for second category can be separated into two different types. Optical properties of first type are very close to Asian dust cases. Also, dust reports of source region and backward trajectory analyses assure that these type is much related with Asian dust event. However, optical properties of the other type are similar to those of urban aerosol. For clear sky case, $\tau$ is relatively smaller and $\alpha$ is larger compare with other cases. Each case shows distinct characteristics in aerosol optical parameters.

본 연구에서는 에어로졸의 종류에 따른 광흡수 특성을 표시할 수 있는 새로운 에어로졸 파라미터인 Modified Aerosol Factor(MAF)를 산출하였다. MAF는 AERONET의 선포토미터로부터 산출되는 4 파장(440, 675, 870 그리고 1020 nm)의 단산란알베도로부터 도출되었다. 에어로졸 종류에 단산란알베도 값이 파장 증가에 따라 다른 형태를 보이는 점으로부터 4파장의 단산란알베도를 이용하여 선형회귀분석을 수행하고 분석값의 기울기 값을 산출하였다. 먼지입자는 기울기 값이 양의 값을 보이고, 순수한 먼지입자 일수록 높은 값을 보였다. 다른 종류의 에어로졸이 혼합됨에 따라 기울기 값은 감소하였다. 먼지입자를 제외한 오염입자와 smoke 입자는 음의 값을 보였다. 광흡수 특성의 차이를 파악하기 위하여 1020 nm에서의 단산란알베도 값을 보정하였다. 보정된 단산란알베도와 기울기 값을 합하여 MAF를 도출하였다. MAF는 오염입자와 smoke 입자는 -1, 먼지입자는 1.5의 값을 보였으며, 서로 다른 에어로졸 종류별로 광흡수 특성이 높을수록 낮은 값의 분포를 보였다.

Probability distribution of the sea surface slope is estimated using sun glitter images derived from visible radiometer on Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS) and surface vector winds observed by spaceborne scatterometers. The brightness of the visible images is converted to the probability of wave surfaces which reflect the sunlight toward GMS in grids of 0.25 deg $\times$ 0.25 deg. Slope and azimuth angle required for the reflection of the sun's ray toward GMS are calculated for each grid from the geometry of GMS observation and location of the sun. The GMS images are then collocated with surface wind data observed by three scatterometers. Using the collocated data set of about 30 million points obtained in a period of 4 years from 1995 to 1999, probability distribution function of the surface slope is estimated as a function of wind speed and azimuth angle relative to the wind direction. Results are compared with those of Cox and Munk (1954a, b). Surface slope estimated by the present method shows narrower distribution and much less directivity relative to the wind direction than that reported by Cox and Munk. It is expected that their data were obtained under conditions of growing wind waves. In general, wind waves are not always developing, and slope distribution might differ from the results of Cox and Munk. Most of our data are obtained in the subtropical seas under clear-sky conditions. This difference of the conditions may be the reason for the difference of slope distribution.
