  • 최근 급격한 온실가스 증가에 기인하여 대기와 해양 그리고 빙권의 변화가 나타나고 또한 기온과 수분의 함량 변화에 따라서 지표 환경도 서서히 변하기 시작하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 지표환경의 반응은 생지화학적 반응과 생물리학적 반응으로 구분 할 수 있는데, 생지화학적 반응은 기후변화에 따른 광합성이나 이와 유사한 지표환경의 변화 그리고 이에 따른 화학적인 피드백을 지칭하며 이는 대기의 온실가스 농도를 변화 시키는 역할을 한다. 생물리학적 반응은 기후변화에 따라 식생의 분포가 변하게 되고 이에 따른 태양에너지의 입사율 변화 등과 같은 물리적 반응을 나타낸다. 과거 기후변화역사에도 식생의 변화가 기후변화에 미치는 영향이 매우 컸던 경우가 있었고, 앞으로의 기후변화는 거대하고 급격하게 일어날 것으로 예측되기 때문에, 미래 기후변화의 정확한 예측을 위해서는 지표환경변화의 물리 화학적 변화를 이해하고 예측 모형에 정확히 포함시킬 필요가 있다.

  • Recent changes in the coastal sea surface temperatures (SST) in Korea are studied by time series analysis of daily SST data during the last 60 years (1936-1995) at 18 coastal observation stations of the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute. The climate of coastal SST in Korea are rapidly changing in recent years. General trends of coast SST changes in Korea are as follows. The annual averages of SST are increasing. The annual ranges of SST variation are decreasing. The winter SST are increasing while the summer SST have a decreasing tendency. Climatic changes in coastal SST in recent 30 years (1965-1995) are more pronounced than those in the last 60 years (1936-1995). The observed trend of coast SST implies that the climate in Korea shows a tendency to shift from temperate zone to subtropical zone.

  • The patterns of occurrence of typhoons in North Pacific region are constantly changing with the increase of temperature in sea surface and the occurrence of El Nino and La Nina and changes of their development caused by global warming. In addition, alterations of flow regimes caused by large-scale hydraulic construction projects in the past few years and changes in precipitation patterns caused by climate change have imposed increased stress on hydroecology while the indiscreet utilization of water resources has a negative environmental impact on the water flows in the natural rivers and streams and hydroecological structures. The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of altered hydrologic regime on stream and riparian ecosystems that are most vulnerable to climate variability and extremes such as typhoons.

  • Global temperatures are steadily increasing, leading to significant changes in microbial diversity and ecology. In the present study, we isolated high-temperature-growing fungi and fungi-like group (Oomycota) strains from freshwater environments of Korea and identified them based on cultural, morphological, and multilocus phylogenetic analyses. As a result, we introduce Saksenaea (Fungi) isolates as a new species, Saksenaea longicolla sp. nov. and record Phytophthora chlamydospora and P. lagoariana (Oomycota) new to Korea. In the growth experiments, they exhibited high-temperature tolerance, which can grow at 35-40 ℃ but become inactive at 4 ℃ and below. This study confirms the presence of high-temperature-tolerant fungi and oomycetes in Korea and suggests that the Korean climate conditions are changing in favor of these species. This indicates that climate warming is altering microbial distributions in freshwater environments.

  • Japanese agriculture has faced to several threats: aging and decrease of farmer population, global competition, and the risk of climate change as well as harsh and variable weather. On the other hands, the number of large scale farms is increasing, because farm lands have been being aggregated to fewer numbers of farms. Cost cutting, development of efficient ways to manage complicatedly scattered farm lands, maintaining yield and quality under variable weather conditions, are required to adapt to changing environments. Information and communications technology (ICT) would contribute to solve such problems and to create innovative technologies. Thus we have been developing an early warning and decision support system to reduce weather and climate risks for rice, wheat and soybean production in Japan. The concept and prototype of the system will be shown. The system consists of a weather data system (Agro-Meteorological Grid Square Data System, AMGSDS), decision support contents where information is automatically created by crop models and delivers information to users via internet. AMGSDS combines JMA's Automated Meteorological Data Acquisition System (AMeDAS) data, numerical weather forecast data and normal values, for all of Japan with about 1km Grid Square throughout years. Our climate-smart system provides information on the prediction of crop phenology, created with weather forecast data and crop phenology models, as an important function. The system also makes recommendations for crop management, such as nitrogen-topdressing, suitable harvest time, water control, pesticide spray. We are also developing methods to perform risk analysis on weather-related damage to crop production. For example, we have developed an algorism to determine the best transplanting date in rice under a given environment, using the results of multi-year simulation, in order to answer the question "when is the best transplanting date to minimize yield loss, to avoid low temperature damage and to avoid high temperature damage?".

  • 지구온난화로 기후변화 및 이상 기상현상이 증가함에 따라 전 세계적으로 미래 기후 전망에 대한 관심과 연구의 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 온난화로 인한 기온의 상승 경향은 미래에도 지속될 것으로 예상되며, 현재 남해안에 국한되는 아열대 기후구는 점차 북상할 것으로 전망된다. 기후대의 이동은 작물재배지의 변화를 의미하기 때문에 본 연구에서는 변화하는 농업기후 조건에서 작물 재배 적응 대책을 마련할 수 있도록 우리나라의 고해상도 기후 자료를 기반으로 현재-미래에 대한 기후대 전망을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 평년 기간(1981-2010)에 대해 제작된 남한과 북한의 통합된 고해상도 월 최고기온 및 최저기온, 월 적산강수량을 확보 및 제작하였고, 쾨펜 기후대 구분 기준에 따라 한반도 기후대를 분류하였다. 동일한 방법으로 기상청의 RCP8.5 기후변화 시나리오를 기반으로 30-270m 격자 해상도로 상세화 된 한반도 지역의 월 단위 기후 자료를 확보하여, 미래에 예상되는 기후대 변화를 전망하였다. RCP8.5 시나리오를 바탕으로 같은 기후 구분 기준을 적용한 결과, 한반도의 기온과 강수량은 지속적으로 증가하여 기후가 점차 단순해지는 것으로 나타났다. 현재 남부지방에 나타나는 온대기후(C)는 점차 확대되어, 2071-2100년대에는 북한의 함경도와 평안도 일부 지역을 제외한 한반도의 대부분이 온대기후(C)가 될 것으로 예상되었다. 반면 냉대 기후(D)는 서서히 북쪽으로 후퇴하여 한반도가 점점 온난 습윤해질 것으로 예상되었다.

  • Sustainable wheat production is of paramount importance for attaining/maintaining the food self-sufficiency status of the rapidly growing nation of Pakistan. However, the average wheat yield per unit area has been dwindling in recent years and the climate-induced variations in rainfall patterns and temperature regimes, during the wheat growth period, are believed to be the reason behind this decline. Crop growth simulation models are powerful tools capable of playing pivotal role in evaluating the climate change impacts on crop yield or productivity. This study was aimed to predict the plausible variations in the wheat yield for future climatic trends so that possible mitigation strategies could be explored. For this purpose, Aquacrop model v. 4.0 was employed to simulate the wheat yield under present and future climatology of the largest agricultural province of Punjab in Pakistan. The data related to crop phenology, management and yield were collected from the experimental plots to calibrate and validate the model. The future climate projections were statistically downscaled from five general circulation models (GCMs) and compared with the base line climate from 1980 to 2010. The model was fed with the projected climate to simulate the wheat yield based on the RCP (representative concentration pathways) 4.5 and 8.5. Under the worst, most likely future scenario of temperature rise and rainfall reduction, the crop yield decreased and water footprint, especially blue, increased, owing to the elevated irrigation demands due to accelerated evapotranspiration rates. The modeling results provided in this study are expected to provide a basic framework for devising policy responses to minimize the climate change impacts on wheat production in the area.

  • The 2006 Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) defines ecosystem services (ES) as "the benefits people obtain from ecosystems". Identifying where ES originates, whom it benefits and how it is changing over a period of time is critical in rapidly developing country like Nepal, where the risk of ES loss is high. In the context of various ecosystem services provided by watershed, this study, particularly deals with water yield, Soil loss and Carbon sequestration computation and evaluation in Bagmati Basin of Nepal. As Bagmati Basin incorporates capital city Kathmandu of nepal, land use change is significant over decades and mapping of ES is crucial for sustainable development of Basin in future. In this regard, the objectives of this study are 1) To compute the total and sub-watershed scale water yield of the basin, 2) Computation of soil loss and sediment retention in the basin, and 3) Computation of carbon sequestration in the basin. Integrated Valuation of Environmental Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST), a popular model for ecosystem service assessment based on Budyko hydrological method is used to compute Ecosystem services. The scenario of ES in two periods of time can be referenced for various approaches of prioritization and incorporation of their value into local and regional decision making for management of basin.

  • Recently the global warming caused by greenhouse gas has emerged as a global environmental problem. For this reason the continued efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emission by international cooperation and each country are in progress. Climate changing has been recognized as the world economy development from fossil fuel use is the culprit. The international maritime organization marine environment protection committee of the global warming reduction emerged restrictions on air pollution have been strengthened. Therefore, the author has investigated the effects of fuel temperature on the characteristics of combustion and performance, using an four-cycle, six cylinders and direct injection diesel engine. The results of cylinder pressure, rate of pressure rise, rate of heat release and specific fuel consumption were increased by changing of fuel temperature.
