인공위성 기반의 원격탐사자료는 홍수, 가뭄 등 자연재해에 대한 모니터링 및 예측에 활용되어 왔으며, 특히 인공위성을 이용한 광역적 강수량 추정 자료는 지형적 제약을 받는 지상관측자료와 비교하여 시공간적으로 연속적이고 균질한 강수량 자료 취득이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 우리나라의 경우 상대적으로 조밀한 지상관측망이 구축되어 있어 공간적으로 상세한 강수량 정보를 생산할 수 있는 여건을 갖추고 있지만, 북한 지역의 경우 기상, 수문, 통계자료에 관한 자료의 접근 및 품질의 제한성으로 인해 미계측 지역에 대한 강수량의 추정에 한계가 있다. CHIRPS (Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Stations) 데이터는 1999년부터 미국국제개발처 (U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID), 미국항공우주국 (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASA), 미국해양대기청 (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA)의 지원으로 개발된 전지구 강우데이터 자료이다. CHIRPS는 1981년부터 현재까지 전지구 강우자료를 0.05도 격자 해상도로 제공하고 있으며, 강수량의 추세 분석 및 가뭄 모니터링을 위해 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CHG (Climate Hazards Group)에서 제공하고 있는 인공위성을 이용한 광역적 강수량 추정 자료인 CHIRPS와 남한 및 북한의 지상관측 강수량 자료와의 비교를 통해 위성으로부터 유도된 격자 강수량자료의 정확도 및 지역적인 강수추정의 불확실성을 평가하고, 수자원 및 재해 분야 이용 가능성을 검토하고자 한다.

Recently there was an incident that military radars, coastal CCTVs and other surveillance equipment captured a small rubber boat smuggling a group of illegal immigrants into South Korea, but guards on duty failed to notice it until after they reached the shore and fled. After that, the detection of such vessels before it reach to the Korean shore has emerged as an important issue to be solved. In the fields of marine navigation, Automatic Identification System (AIS) is widely equipped in vessels, and the vessels incessantly transmits its position information. In this paper, we propose a method of automatically identifying abnormally behaving vessels with AIS using convolutional autoencoder (CAE). Vessel anomaly detection can be referred to as the process of detecting its trajectory that significantly deviated from the majority of the trajectories. In this method, the normal vessel trajectory is gridded as an image, and CAE are trained with images from historical normal vessel trajectories to reconstruct the input image. Features of normal trajectories are captured into weights in CAE. As a result, images of the trajectories of abnormal behaving vessels are poorly reconstructed and end up with large reconstruction errors. We show how correctly the model detects simulated abnormal trajectories shifted a few pixel from normal trajectories. Since the proposed model identifies abnormally behaving ships using actual AIS data, it is expected to contribute to the strengthening of security level when it is applied to various maritime surveillance systems.

유역 내 수자원 계획을 효율적으로 수립하기 위해서는 장기간에 걸친 수문 모델링 뿐만 아니라 미래 기후 시나리오에 따른 수문학적 기후변화 영향 분석도 중요하다. 이를 위해서는 관측 값에 기반한 고품질 및 고해상도 격자형 기상자료 생산이 필수적이다. 하지만, 우리나라는 종관기상관측시스템(ASOS)과 방재기상관측시스템(AWS)으로 이루어진 고밀도 관측 네트워크가 2000년 이후부터 이용 가능했기에 장기간 격자형 기상자료가 부족하다. 이를 보완하고자 본 연구는 가정적인 상황에 기반하여 만약 2000년 이전에도 현재와 동일한 고밀도 관측 네트워크가 존재했다면 산출 가능했을 장기간 일 단위 고해상도 격자형 기상자료를 생산하는 것을 목표로 한다. 구체적으로, 2000년을 기준으로 최근과 과거 기간의 격자형 기상자료를 딥러닝 알고리즘으로 모델링하여 과거 기간을 대상으로 기상자료(일 단위 기온, 강수량)의 공간적 변동성 및 특성을 재구성한다. 격자형 기상자료의 생산을 위해 우리나라의 고도에 기반하여 기상 인자들의 영향을 정량화 하는 보간법인 K-PRISM을 적용하여 고밀도 및 저밀도 관측 네트워크로 두 가지 격자형 기상자료를 생산한다. 생산한 격자형 기상자료 중 저밀도 관측 네트워크의 자료를 입력 자료로, 고밀도 관측 네트워크의 자료를 출력 자료로 선정하여 각 격자점에 대해 Long-Short Term Memory(LSTM) 알고리즘을 개발한다. 이 때, 멀티 그래픽 처리장치(GPU)에 기반한 병렬 처리를 통해 비용 효율적인 계산이 가능하도록 한다. 최종적으로 1973년부터 1999년까지의 저밀도 관측 네트워크의 격자형 기상자료를 입력 자료로 하여 해당 기간에 대한 고밀도 관측 네트워크의 격자형 기상자료를 생산한다. 개발된 대부분의 예측 모델 결과가 0.9 이상의 NSE 값을 나타낸다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 개발된 모델은 고품질의 장기간 기상자료를 효율적으로 정확도 높게 산출하며, 이는 향후 장기간 기후 추세 및 변동 분석에 중요 자료로 활용 가능하다.

National Meteorological Satellite Center(NMSC) of Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA) has launched to implement the application development to get prepared for the space weather operation since 2010. As a action of KMA's space weather work, NMSC constructed Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS) application system for meteorology and space weather. We will introduce NMSC's space weather application system which derives regional TEC(Total Electron Content) in near real time using nation-wide GNSS network data. First, We constructed system for collecting GNSS data, which is currently collecting about 80 stations operated by agencies like NGII(National Geographic Information Institute), Central Office of DGPS(Differential GPS), and KASI(Korea Astronomy and Space Science) including KMA's own data of 2 stations. In order to retreive regional TEC over Korean peninsular, we build up the automatic processes running every 1-hour. In these processes, firstly, GNSS data of every stations with 24 hours time window are processed to derive DCBs(Differential Code Biases) of each GNSS station and TEC values on every ionosphere piercing point(IPP). Then we made gridded regional TEC map with resolution of 0.25 degree from 31N, 121E to 41N, 135E by combination of all station results within 30 minutes window with assumption that TEC of a given point during a given 30 minutes window would have a constant value. The grid points without TEC value are interpolated using Barnes objective analysis. We presentour regional TEC maps, which can describe better on the status of ionosphere over Korean peninsular compared to IGS TEC maps.

Future variability of the spatial patterns of rainfall events is the point of water-related risks and impacts of climate change. Recent related researches are mostly conducted based on the outcomes from General Circulation Models (GCMs), especially Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, phase 5 (CMIP5) GCMs which are the most advanced version of climate modeling system. GCM data have been widely used for various studies as the data utility keep getting improved. Meanwhile the model performances especially for raw GCM outputs are rarely evaluated prior to the applications although the process would essential for reasonable use of model forecasts. This study attempt to quantitatively evaluate the skills of 29 CMIP5 GCMs in reproducing spatial climatologies of precipitation in East Asia. We used 3 different gridded observational data as the references available over the study area and calculated correlation and errors of spatial patterns simulated by GCMs. As a result, the study presented diversity of the GCM evaluation in the performance, rank, or accuracy by different configurations, such as target area, evaluation method, and observation data. Yet, we found that Hadley-centre affiliated models comparatively performs better for the meso-scale area in East Asia and MPI_ESM_MR and CMCC family showed better performance specifically for the korean peninsula. We expect that the results and thoughts of this study would be considered in screening suitable GCMs for specific area, and finally contribute to extensive utilization of the results from climate change related researches.

The geoid is the level surface that closely approximates mean sea level and usually used for the origin of vertical datum. For the computation of geoid, various sources of gravity measurements are used in South Korea and, as a consequence, the geoid models may show different results. however, a limited analysis has been performed due to a lack of controlled data, namely the GPS/Leveling data. Therefore, in this study, the gravimetric geoids are compared with the geodetic geoid which is obtained through the GPS/Leveling procedures. The gravimetric geoids are categorized into geoid from airborne gravimetry, geoid from the terrestrial gravimetry, NGII geoid(geoids published by National Geographic Information Institute) and NORI geoid(geoi published by National Oceanographic Research Institute), respectively. For the analysis, the geometric geoid is obtained at each unified national control point and the difference between geodetic and gravimetric geoid is computed. Also, the geoid height data is gridded on a regular $10{\times}10-km$ grid so that the FFT method can be applied to analyze the geoid height differences in frequency domain. The results show that no significant differences in standard deviation are observed when the geoids from the airborne and terrestrial gravimetry are compared with the geomertric geoid while relatively large difference are shown when NGII geoid and NORI geoid are compared with geometric geoid. Also, NGII geoid and NORI geoid are analyzed in frequency domain and the deviations occurs in long-wavelength domain.

Changes in climate have largely increased concentrated heavy rainfall, which in turn is causing enormous damages to humans and properties. Therefore, it is important to understand the spatial-temporal features of rainfall. In this study, RADAR rainfall was used to calculate gridded areal rainfall which reflects the spatial-temporal variability. In addition, Kalman-filter method, a stochastical technique, was used to combine ground rainfall network with RADAR rainfall network to calculate areal rainfall. Thiessen polygon method, Inverse distance weighting method, and Kriging method were used for calculating areal rainfall, and the calculated data was compared with adjusted areal RADAR rainfall measured using the Kalman-filter method. The result showed that RADAR rainfall adjusted with Kalman-filter method well-reproduced the distribution of raw RADAR rainfall which has a similar spatial distribution as the actual rainfall distribution. The adjusted RADAR rainfall also showed a similar rainfall volume as the volume shown in rain gauge data. Anseong-Cheon basin was used as a study area and the RADAR rainfall adjusted with Kalman-filter method was applied in $Vflo^{TM}$ model, a physical-based distributed model, and ModClark model, a semi-distributed model. As a result, $Vflo^{TM}$ model simulated peak time and peak value similar to that of observed hydrograph. ModClark model showed good results for total runoff volume. However, for verifying the parameter, $Vflo^{TM}$ model showed better reproduction of observed hydrograph than ModClark model. These results confirmed that flood runoff simulation is applicable in domestic settings(in South Korea) if highly accurate areal rainfall is calculated by combining gauge rainfall and RADAR rainfall data and the simulation is performed in link to the distributed hydrological model.

Spatial simulation of crop growth often requires application of management conditions to each cell. In particular, it is of great importance to determine the temperature conditions during the nursery period for rice seedlings, which would affect heading date projections. The objective of this study was to determine the value of TMPSB, which is the parameter of ORYZA2000 model to represent temperature increase under a plastic tunnel during the rice seedling periods. Candidate values of TMPSB including 0℃, 2℃, 5℃, 7℃ and 9℃ were used to simulate rice growth and yield. Planting dates were set from mid-April to mid-June. The simulations were performed at four sites including Cheorwon, Suwon, Seosan, and Gwangju where climate conditions at rice fields common in Korea can be represented. It was found that the TMPSB values of 0℃ and 2℃ resulted in a large variation of heading date due to low temperature occurred in mid-April. When the TMPSB value was >7℃, the variation of heading date was relatively small. Still, the TMPSB value of 5℃ resulted in the least variation of heading date for all the planting dates. Our results suggested that the TMPSB value of 5℃ would help reasonable assessment of climate change impact on rice production when high resolution gridded weather data are used as inputs to ORYZA2000 model over South Korea.

A shift of first fowering date (FFD) of spring blossoms (cherry, peach and pear) over the northest Asia under global warming is investiaged using dynamically downscaled daily temperature data with 12.5 km resolution. For the study, we obatained gridded daily data with Historical (1981~2010), and Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) (2021~2100) 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios which were produced by WRFv3.4 in conjunction with HadGEM2-AO. A change on FFDs in 21st century is estimated by applying daily outputs of WRFv3.4 to DTS phonological model. Prior to projection on future climate, the performances of both WRFv3.4 and DTS models are evaluated using spatial distribution of climatology and SCR diagram (Normalized standard deviation-Pattern correlation coefficient-Root mean square difference). According to the result, WRFv3.4 and DTS models well simulated a feature of the terrain following characteristics and a general pattern of observation with a marigin of $1.4^{\circ}C$ and 5~6 days. The analysis reveals a projected advance in FFDs of cherry, peach and pear over the northeast Asia by 2100 of 15.4 days (9.4 days). 16.9 days (10.4 days) and 15.2 days (9.5 days), respectively, compared to the Historical simulation due to a increasing early spring (Februrary to April) temperature of about $4.9^{\circ}C$ ($2.9^{\circ}C$) under the RCP 8.5 (RCP 4.5) scenarios. This indicates that the current flowering of the cherry, peach and pear over analysis area in middle or end of April is expected to start blooming in early or middle of April, at the end of this century. The present study shows the dynamically downscaled daily data with high-resolution is helpeful in offering various useful information to end-users as well as in understanding regional climate change.

An intertidal topography is continuously changed due to morphodynamics processes. Detection and measurement of topographic change for a tidal flat is important to make an integrated coastal area management plan as well as to carry out sedimentologic study. The objective of this study is to generate intertidal DEM using leveling data and waterlines extracted from optical and microwave remotely sensed data in a relatively short period. Waterline is defined as the border line between exposed tidal flat and water body. The contour of the terrain height in tidal flat is equivalent to the waterline. One can utilize satellite images to generate intertidal DEM over large areas. Extraction of the waterline in a SAR image is a difficult task to perform partly because of the presence of speckle and partly because of similarity between the signal returned from the sea surface and that from the exposed tidal flat surface or land. Waterlines in SAR intensity and coherence map can effectively be extracted with MSP-RoA edge detector. From multiple images obtained over a range of tide elevation, it is possible to build up a set of heighted waterline within intertidal zone, and then a gridded DEM can be interpolated. We have tested the proposed method over the Gomso Bay, and succeeded in generating intertidal DEM with relatively high accuracy.
