This study performed prediction of extreme rainfall uncertainty and its frequency analysis based on climate change scenarios by Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) for the selected nine-General Circulation Models (GCMs) in the near future (2011-2040) over the Korean Peninsula (KP). We analysed uncertainty of scenarios by multiple model ensemble (MME) technique using non-parametric quantile mapping method and bias correction method in the basin scale of the KP. During the near future, the extreme rainfall shows a significant gradually increasing tendency with the annual variability and uncertainty of extreme ainfall in the RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 scenarios. In addition to the probability rainfall frequency (such as 50 and 100-year return periods) has increased by 4.2% to 10.9% during the near future in 2040. Therefore, in the longer-term water resources master plan, based on the various climate change scenarios (such as CMIP5 GCMs) and its uncertainty can be considered for utilizing of the support tool for decision-makers in water-related disasters management.

다양한 기후 연구에서는 지속적인 기후의 변화로 인한 기후 위기는 전지구적으로 아열대화와 사막화를 전망하고 있으며, 우리나라도 기후 변화로 인하여 담수 자원에 악영향을 미치고 있다. 대부분 가뭄은 기본적으로 강수량 부족에 의해 발생되며, 기상변수와 높은 상관관계를 나타내고 있다. 따라서 가뭄을 정량화하기 위한 연구들이 빈번하게 수행되며 다양한 가뭄지수들이 개발되고 있다. 기상학적 가뭄지수인 SPI(Standardized Precipitation Index)와 SPEI(Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index)는 가뭄 연구에 대표적으로 사용되는 지표이며 특히, SPEI는 강수와 증발산 사이의 물수지에 대한 평균 조건을 고려할 수 있는 것이 장점이다. 미래 가뭄 연구는 CMIP(Coupled Model Intercomparison Project)의 미래 시나리오를 이용하여 연구가 수행되고 있는데 새롭게 개발된 SSP(Shared Socioeconomic Pathways) 시나리오는 미래의 완화와 적응을 기반으로 5개의 시나리오로 구분되며, 사회 및 경제적 요소를 함께 내포하고 있어 현실적인 미래 기후를 예측할 수 있다. 과거 미래 가뭄 연구는 CMIP5의 미래 시나리오인 RCP (Representative Concentration Pathways) 시나리오를 사용한 연구가 대부분이다. 따라서 새롭게 개발된 SSP 시나리오를 이용하여 미래 가뭄 예측 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구는 SSP 시나리오의 중간 단계인 SSP2-4.5와 가장 높은 단계인 SSP5-8.5의 기후 요소를 토대로 사용하여 우리나라 미래 기간의 SPI와 SPEI를 4개(3-, 6-, 9-, 12-month)의 기간으로 구분하여 산정하였다. 시·공간적 분석을 하기 위해 가까운 미래(2025-2060)와 먼 미래(2065-2100)로 구분하였으며, 격자별로 가뭄의 심도와 발생 면적을 분석하였다. 연구 결과로 SPI의 근 미래 극한 가뭄(<-2.0)은 높았으나, 먼 미래는 오히려 전국적으로 가뭄이 줄어들었다. SPEI는 일부 지역에서 적당한 건조상태(-1.5 ~ -1.0)가 산정되었으나, 대부분 극한 가뭄이 발생하였다.

To build a distribution model for Haemadipsa rjukjuana, we collected current occurrences of the species on Heuksando with adjacent islands. Based on current locations and 19 climate variables with DEM (digital elevation model), we built the MaxEnt (maximum entropy) species distribution model for H. rjukjuana in the islands. Then, we applied the MaxEnt model to the mainland of Korea with the current climate condition and topology. In addition to the current distribution scenario, we predicted the future distribution scenarios in Korea by Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) global climate models. Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) 585 of two CMIP6 models(GISS-E2-1 and INM-CM4-8) from 2040 to 2100 were used for the future projection.

We analyzed the North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) that was simulated in 25 coupled general circulation models (CGCMs) using historical and Representative Concentration Pathway 4.5 (RCP4.5) scenario experiments of Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), focusing on the evaluation of the performance of HadGEM2-AO. A large inter-model diversity in salinity, density, and depth of the NPIW exists even though the multi-model ensemble mean (MME) is comparable to observations. It was found that the depth of the NPIW tends to be deeper in the models in which the NPIW is relatively saltier. HadGEM2-AO simulates the lightest NPIW having the lowest salinity at shallower depth, compared with other CGCMs. Future projections of the NPIW show that the temperature of the NPIW increases, but the density decreases in all CMIP5 models. It was shown that the salinity of the NPIW decreases in most models and the decrease tends to be larger in models simulating the lighter NPIW. The HadGEM2-AO projects moderate changes in the temperature and density of the NPIW out of the CMIP5 models.

기후변화는 전 지구 수문순환과 수자원 분포에 커다란 영향을 준다. 하지만 지금까지 관측되어온 지구상의 건조도 변화에 있어서 기후의 자연변동성의 영향과 인간활동에 의한 온난화의 영향을 명시적으로 밝힌 연구는 존재하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 데이터 구동형 모델과 물리 모델을 이용해 관측 기반의 전구 수자원 분포를 1902년부터 2014년까지 재구축함으로써 지구의 평균온도가 약 1도 상승해온 지난 세기에 걸쳐 건기의 수자원 분포가 어떻게 변해왔는지 보인다. 재구축된 전구 변화 패턴은 인간활동에 의한 온실가스 증가등을 고려한 기후 모델 시뮬레이션과 흡사함을 알 수 있었으며 기후의 자연변동성만을 고려한 기후 모델 시뮬레이션에서는 발견되지 않았다. 주로 북아시아, 북미, 유럽 등 중위도 온대지방에서 더욱더 건조한 건기가 뚜렷하게 나타났으며 이는 강수량의 감소보다는 증발산의 증가에 기인하는 것으로 나타난다. 이와 같은 건조도의 변화는 미래 있어서 또한 인류에 대한 커다란 위협으로 자리한다. 미래 기후에서의 가뭄의 변화에 대해 다양한 연구들이 존재하지만 대부분 높은 수준의 온난화 (예를들어 RCP-SSP 585)에서의 영향에 국한된다. 다시 말해 인류가 21세기 중반에 달성을 목표로 하는 탄소중립이 가뭄의 측면에서 어떤 영향을 주게 될지에 대한 연구는 아직 충분하지 않다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 약한 혹은 중간 수준의 기후변화 시나리오를 이용해 파리협약에서 목표로 하는 1.5℃와 2℃ 상승에 따라 전 지구의 건조도 분포가 어떻게 변하고 그 변화에 있어서 어떠한 수문기후학적 메커니즘이 작용하는지 밝힌다. 지중해 연안 지역에서는 건조도의 가속이 +1.5℃와 +2℃사이에 존재하였으나 동아시아에서는 +1.5℃와 +2℃ 모두에서 습윤해짐을 알 수 있었으며 이러한 지역적 불균일성은 기후변화 대응 노력에 있어서 과거 온실가스 배출에 대한 책임뿐만 아니라 다양한 부문에 걸친 미래의 잠재 적응 노력 또한 고려해야만 함을 시사한다. 본 연구는 제6차 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project의 Land Surface, Snow, Soil-moisture Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6/LS3MIP)와 Half a degree Additional warming, Prognosis and Projected Impacts (HAPPI)의 다중 모델 앙상블 시뮬레이션 결과를 이용했다.

The changes in the teleconnection associated with El Nin?o-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) over the East Asia and North Pacific under greenhouse warming are analyzed herein by comparing the Historical run (1970/1971~1999/2000) and the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 run with 31 climate models, participated in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5). It is found that CMIP5 models have diverse systematic errors in simulating the ENSO teleconnection pattern from model to model. Therefore, we select 21 models based on the models' performance in simulating teleconnection pattern in the present climate. It is shown that CMIP5 models tend to project an overall weaker teleconnection pattern associated with ENSO over East Asia in the future climate than that in the present climate. It can be also noted that the cyclonic flow over the North Pacific is weakened and shifted eastward. However, uncertainties for the ENSO teleconnection changes still exist, suggesting that much consistent agreements on this future teleconnections associated with ENSO should be taken in a further study.

As the severity of water-related disasters increases in urban watersheds due to climate change, reducing flood damage in urban watersheds is one of the important issues. This study focuses on prioritizing the optimal site for permeable pavement to maximize the efficiency of reducing flood damage in urban watersheds in the future climate environment using multi-criteria decision making techniques. The Mokgamcheon watershed which is considerably urbanized than in the past was selected for the study area and its 27 sub-watersheds were considered as candidate sites. Six General Circulation Model (GCM) of Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6(CMIP6) according to two Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) scenarios were used to estimate future monthly precipitation for the study area. The Driving force-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) framework was used to select the water quantity evaluation criteria for prioritizing permeable pavement, and the study area was modeled using ArcGIS and Storm Water Management Model (SWMM). For the values corresponding to the evaluation criteria based on the DPSIR framework, data from national statistics and long-term runoff simulation value of SWMM according to future monthly precipitation were used. Finally, the priority for permeable pavement was determined using the Fuzzy TOPSIS and Minimax regret method. The high priorities were concentrated in the downstream sub-watersheds where urbanization was more progressed and densely populated than the upstream watersheds.

In this study we investigated changes in the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC) under the global warming scenario RCP 4.5 by analysing the results from the World Climate Research Program's (WCRP) Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5). Among the four models that had been employed to analyse the Tsushima Warm Current during the 20th Century, in the CSIRO-Mk3.6.0 and HadGEM2-CC models the transports of the Tsushima Warm Current were 2.8 Sv and 2.1 Sv, respectively, and comparable to observed transport, which is between 2.4 and 2.77 Sv. In the other two models the transports were much greater or smaller than the observed estimates. Using the two models that properly reproduced the transport of the Tsushima Warm Current we investigated the response of the current under the global warming scenario. In both models the volume transports and the temperature were greater in the future climate scenario. Warm advection into the East Sea was intensified to raise the temperature and consequently the heat loss to the air.

The objective of this study was to evaluate future inundation risk of farmland according to the application of coupled model intercomparison project phase 5 (CMIP5) and coupled model intercomparison project phase 6 (CMIP6). In this study, future weather data based on CMIP5 and CMIP6 general circulation model (GCM) were collected, and inundation was simulated using the river modeling system for small agricultural watershed (RMS) and GATE2018 in the Tanjung district of the Moohan stream watershed. Although the average probable rainfall of CMIP5 and CMIP6 did not show significant differences as a result of calculating the probability rainfall, the difference between the minimum and maximum values was significantly larger in CMIP6. The results of the flood discharge calculation and the inundation risk assessment showed similar to trends to those of probability rainfall calculations. The risk of inundation in the future period was found to increase in all sub-watersheds, and the risk of inundation has been analyzed to increase significantly, especially if CMIP6 data are used. Therefore, it is necessary to consider climate change effects by utilizing CMIP6-based future weather data when designing and reinforcing water structures in agricultural areas in the future. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for utilizing CMIP6-based future weather data.

This study analyzes the spatio-temporal variability of terrestrial carbon flux and the response of land carbon sink with climate factors to improve of understanding of the variability of land-atmosphere carbon exchanges accurately. The coupled carbon-climate models of CMIP5 (the fifth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project) and CT (CarbonTracker) are used. The CMIP5 multi-model ensemble mean overestimated the NEP (Net Ecosystem Production) compares to CT and GCP (Global Carbon Project) estimates over the period 2001~2012. Variation of NEP in the CMIP5 ensemble mean is similar to CT, but a couple of models which have fire module without nitrogen cycle module strongly simulate carbon sink in the Africa, Southeast Asia, South America, and some areas of the United States. Result in comparison with climate factor, the NEP is highly affected by temperature and solar radiation in both of CT and CMIP5. Partial correlation between temperature and NEP indicates that the temperature is affecting NEP positively at higher than mid-latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere, but opposite correlation represents at other latitudes in CT and most CMIP5 models. The CMIP5 models except for few models show positive correlation with precipitation at $30^{\circ}N{\sim}90^{\circ}N$, but higher percentage of negative correlation represented at $60^{\circ}S{\sim}30^{\circ}N$ compare to CT. For each season, the correlation between temperature (solar radiation) and NEP in the CMIP5 ensemble mean is similar to that of CT, but overestimated.
