마이크로파 센서 자료를 이용하여 태풍 강도를 산출하고자 TRMM TMI로부터 관측된 자료와 태풍 강도의 최대 상관성을 나타내는 지역올 찾고 최적의 상관 변수를 선정하였다. 분석기간은 2004년 6월부터 9월까지 발생된 태풍으로써 18개의 사례이다. TMI로부터 관측된 85 GHz 채널의 밝기온도，구름내 총 수증기량，얼음양，강우 강도，잠열방출양이 태풍 강도와의 상관성 분석을 위한 변수로 분석되었다. 태풍의 강도는 RSMC-Tokyo에서 발표된 Best track의 최대 풍속 자료를 이용하였다. 위성 관측 변수를 태풍 중심으로부터 공간 평균하였을 때 반경 2.0-2.5도 정도의 평균거리에서 최대의 상관성을 보였다. 위성 자료로부터 태풍 중심 풍속을 추정하기 위하여 회귀분석을 하였다. Best track과의 오차는 85 GHz 밝기온도와 수증기량을 이용한 다중 회귀 분석에서 오차가 최소를 보였다. 한편， 태풍강도 예측을 위한 통계모델에 마이크로파 위성 자료를 예측인자로 입력하여 태풍강도의 정확도가 3-6%정도 향상됨을 보였다.

This edition has continued since 2006 tropical cyclone season our effort to provide standard tropical cyclone summaries by the western North Pacific basin and detailed reviews of operationally or meteorologically significant tropical cyclones to document significant challenges and shortfalls in the tropical cyclone warning system to serve as a focal point for research and development efforts. The tropical cyclone season of 2009 in the western North Pacific basin is summarized and the main characteristics of general atmospheric circulation are described. Also, the official track and intensity forecasts of these cyclones are verified. The total number is less than 59-year (1951~2009) average frequency of 26.4. The 2009 western North Pacific season was an inactive one, in which 22 tropical storms generated. Of these, 13 TCs reached typhoon (TY) intensity, while the rest 9 TCs only reached severe tropical storm (STS) and tropical storm (TS) intensity - three STS and six TS storms. On average of 22 TCs in 2009, the Korea Meteorological Administration official track forecast error for 48 hours was 219 km. There was a big challenge for individual cyclones such as 0902 CHAN-HOM, 0909 ETAU, and 0920 LUPIT resulting in significant forecast error, with both intricate tracks and irregular moving speed. There was no tropical cyclone causing significant direct impact to the country. The tropical cyclone season in 2009 began in May with the formation of KUJIRA (0901). In September and October, ten TSs formed in the western North Pacific in response to enhanced convective activity. On the other hand, the TC activity was very weak from June to July. It is found that the unusual anti-cyclonic circulation in the lower level and weak convection near the Philippines are dominant during summertime. The convection and atmospheric circulation in the western North Pacific contributed unfavorable condition for TC activity in the 2009 summertime. Year 2009 has continued the below normal condition since mid 1990s which is apparent in the decadal variability in TC activity.

Sea surface wind is an important variable for elucidating the atmospheric-ocean interactions and predicting the dangerous weather conditions caused by oceans. Accurate sea surface wind data are required for making correct predictions; however, there are limited observational datasets for oceans. Therefore, this study aimed to obtain long-period high-resolution sea surface wind data. First, the ERA5 reanalysis wind field, which can be used for a long period at a high resolution, was regridded and synthesized using the asymmetric typhoon wind field calculated via the Generalized Asymmetric Holland Model of the numerical model named ADvanced CIRCulation model. The accuracy of the asymmetric typhoon synthesized wind field was evaluated using data obtained from Korea Meteorological Administration and Japan Meteorological Administration. As a result of the evaluation, it was found that the asymmetric typhoon synthetic wind field reproduce observations relatively well, compared with ERA5 reanalysis wind field and symmetric typhoon synthetic wind field calculated by the Holland model. The sea surface wind data produced in this study are expected to be useful for obtaining storm surge data and conducting frequency analysis of storm surges and sea surface winds in the future.

23 tropical cyclones of tropical storm(TS) intensity or higher formed in the western North Pacific and the South China Sea in 2006. The total number is less than the 30-year $(1971{\sim}2000)$ average frequency of 26.7, Out of 23, 15 cyclones reached typhoon(TY) intensity, three severe tropical storm(STS) intensity, and five TS intensity. The tropical cyclone season in 2006 began in May with the formation of CHANCHU(0601). While convective activity was slightly inactive around the Philippines from late June to early August. In addition, subtropical high was more enhanced than normal over the south of Japan from May to early August. Consequently, most tropical cyclones formed over the sea east of the Philippines after late June, and many of them moved westwards to China. CHANCHU(0601), BILIS(0604), KAEMI(0605), PRAPIROON(0606) and SAOMI(0608) brought damage to China, the Philippines, and Vietnam. On the other hand, EWINIAR(0603) moved northwards and hit the Republic of Korea, causing damage to the country From late August to early September, convective activity was temporarily inactive over the sea east of the Philippines. However, it turned active again after late September. Subtropical high was weak over the south of Japan after late August. Therefore, most tropical cyclones formed over the sea east of the Philippines and moved northwards. WUKONG(0610) and SHANSHAN(0613) hit Japan to bring damage to the country. On the other hand, XANGSANE(0615) and CIMARON(0619) moved westwards in the South China Sea, causing damage to the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. In addition, IOKE(0612) was the first namded cyclone formed in the central North Pacific and moved westwards across longitude 180 degrees east after HUKO(0224).

The characteristics of the typhoon's extratropical transition (ET) over the western North Pacific area were investigated using the cyclone phase space (CPS) diagram method suggested by Hart (2003). The data used in this study were the global data assimilation prediction system (GDAPS) and NCEP data set. The number of typhoons selected were 75 cases during 2002 to 2007, and the three parameters were analyzed : the motion relative thickness asymmetry of the storm (B), the upper thermal wind shear and the lower thermal wind shear. Comparing the best-track data provided by the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center /Tokyo, the time of the ET based on CPS was 2~6 hours earlier than the best-track data. And it was shown that the 400- km and 30 kt wind radius of storm for the CPS method were better agreement than the previous suggested radius 500- km.

Coastal disasters have become one of the most important issues in every coastal country. In Korea, coastal disasters such as storm surge, sea level rise and extreme weather have placed many coastal regions in danger of being exposed or damaged during subsequent storms and gradual shoreline retreat. A storm surge is an onshore gush of water associated with a tow pressure weather system, typically in typhoon season. However, it is very difficult to predict storm surge height and inundation due to the irregularity of the course and intensity of a typhoon. To provide a new scheme of typhoon damage prediction model, the scenario which changes the central pressure, the maximum wind radius, the track and the proceeding speed by corresponding previous typhoon database, was composed. The virtual typhoon scenario database was constructed with individual scenario simulation and evaluation, in which it extracted the result from the scenario database of information of the hereafter typhoon and information due to climate change. This virtual typhoon scenario database will apply damage prediction information about a typhoon. This study performed construction and analysis of the simulation system with the storm surge/coastal inundation model at Masan coastal areas, and applied method for predicting using the scenario of the storm surge.

기존의 태풍예측과 관련된 연구들은 전 지구적인 흐름이 직접적으로 계산되지 않은 중규모 기상모형이나 태풍모형들을 이용하여왔다. 하지만 최근 전 세계적으로 전구 규모의 모형들이 40km 이하의 고해상도 모형들이 개발되어 20km이하의 초고해상도 시물레이션이 가능해짐에 따라 지역적인 기상현상들을 전구모형을 통해서 재현해 내고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고해상도 전구모형을 이용하여 태풍 실험을 하고자 하며, 독일기상청에서 개발된 Icosahedral-hexagonal 격자체계의 GME전구 모형을 이용한 태풍모의 결과를 기상청 태풍 best track과 비교 분석 하였다. 실험에 사용된 모형 분해능은 연직 47layer (7 soil layer 포함), 수평 약 40km와 20km으로 구성되었다. 최근 3년($2005{\sim}2007$)간의 동아시아지역을 지나간 태풍을 대상으로 하였다. 태풍모의 시작시간은 각 TD(Tropical Depression)발생 24시간 전 자료를 이용하였으며, 각 태풍의 소멸 24시간 후까지 모의하였다. GME 모형을 이용한 태풍모의 결과에서 best track의 경우 모의 시작 후 약 168시간 forcast 결과가 매우 유사한 경로를 따라 진행해 가고 있으며, 태풍의 전향이 이루어지는 시각은 ${\pm}3$시간 내외의 오차를 보이고 있다. 태풍경로의 경우 40km 결과에 비해 20km 모의 결과가 best track에 더 가까운 결과를 보이고 있다. 중심기압변화의 경우 40km의 결과가 20km 결과에 비해 변화경향이 유사한 형태를 보이고 있으며, 20km 결과의 경우 중심기압의 변화가 다소 급하게 나타나는 경향을 보이는 특성을 가지고 있지만 40km결과에 비해 최저 중심기압이 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타나고 있으며 특히, MANYI case의 경우 관측값 930hPa보다 더 낮은 911.4hPa의 결과를 보이고 있다. 풍속의 경우도 중심기압변화와 유사한 결과를 보이고 있으나, 최대 풍속의 경우 40km 결과에 비해 20km결과가 관측과의 오차범위가 $2{\sim}3\;m/s$ 내외로 나타나고 있다. 그리고 GME모형의 경우 태풍(TD) 발생 약168시간 이전에 예측이 가능한 결과를 보인다. 이 연구의 결과는 다른 기상모형에서 태풍 강도가 약하게 모의되던 현상이 상당히 개선된 것을 알 수 있으며, 이는 20km 고해상도 GME 모형이 태풍예측모형으로 활용이 간능 할 것으로 사료 된다.

This study aims to find out a state of the damages and vulnerable areas from natural disasters in the Korean peninsula using the prevention meteorological database information made by Park(2007b). Through the correlation analysis between damage elements and total property losses, we investigate the damages of public facilities, which have high correlation coefficient, and the cause of disasters and want to propose the basic information to set up the disaster prevention measures in advance. As a result, because most of the total property losses is the damages of public facilities, we can reduce the damages of natural disasters if we can predict the damages of public facilities or carry out the prevention activities in advance. The most vulnerable area for the natural disasters are Cangwon-do and Gyeongsangnam-do provinces. The vulnerable areas for the damages of public facilities by typhoon are Daegu metropolitan city, Cangwon-do, and Gyeongsangbuk-do provinces. These vulnerable areas will take place more frequently due to the climate change including Gyeongsangnam-do province so that we need to set up the disaster prevention measures and natural disaster mitigation plan. Also, we think that it has effect on reducing the damages of natural disasters to predict the damage scale and strongly perform the prevention activities in advance according to typhoon track and intensity.
