Although wind turbines have obtained type certification according to international standards and are released to the market, they cannot be regarded as design evaluations that consider site characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to study the site-specific load analysis method based on the meteorological data measured at the candidate site. In this study, site-specific load calculation was performed based on the meteorological data from the Jeju Haengwon mast. Analysis results were compared and analyzed with the results calculated by IEC design Class (IIA). For the fatigue loads at the blade root and tower base, the site-specific condition was lower than the IEC IIA, but in the case of the ultimate load, the site-specific condition showed higher results in some design load cases (DLCs). Selecting a wind turbine suitable for a site through load evaluation considering site conditions can prevent the reduction of operation and maintenance (O&M) costs and the power loss caused by downtime. Finally, it is expected to contribute to the project's levelized cost of energy (LCOE) reduction.

본 연구에서는 전지구수치예보모델의 예측성능에 주요한 영향을 주는 요소 중 하나인 토양수분 초기장을 적절히 생산하기 위해, 오프라인 Noah 지면모델을 구축하여 스핀업실험을 수행하고 그 변동특성을 살펴보았다. 스핀업실험은 지면기후장 생성과 목표연도에 대한 현실화의 2단계로 구성되었다. 첫 번째 단계의 지면기후장 생성은 2008~2017년 기간에 대해 평균한 대기강제력으로 10년 동안 지면모델을 반복적으로 수행하는 방식으로 이루어졌으며, 토양수분 모의가 평형상태에 도달하는데 소요되는 시간은 토양깊이와 코펜 정의에 기반한 기후구 특성에 따라 차이가 컸다. 토양 첫 번째 층은 극지역에서 가장 길었고, 두 번째 층 부터 네 번째 층까지는 건조지역에서 평형상태에 도달하는 시간이 가장 늦어 최대 7년 내외의 시간이 소요되었다. 결과적으로 10년의 spin-up을 거치면 지면모델이 평형상태에 도달함을 알 수 있다. 이 소요시간은 지상기온과 강수량과 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 두 번째 단계에서는 2018년을 목표연도로 설정하고 지면기후장을 이용하여 추가 적분을 수행하고, 그 결과 6개월 이내에 지면모델에서 모의된 토양수분, 지표기온, 증발산량은 2018년 지면상태에 도달하는 것을 확인하였다. 이에 구축된 오프라인 Noah 지면모델 스핀업 시스템은 안정적으로 전구수치예보모델의 토양수분 초기장을 생산함으로써 전지구수치모델에 결합된 지면모델의 물리과정과 기초자료가 변하더라도 유연하게 대응할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

In this study, we have analyzed $PM_{10}$ concentration measured at Incheon Regional Air Monitoring Network (10 stations) and meteorological data at Incheon Weather Station to investigate factors (i.e. wind direction, wind speed, relative humidity, major meteorological phenomenon, and sea-land breezes existence) influencing $PM_{10}$ concentration in Incheon during 2005. Statistical differences among meteorological factors were assessed by Kruskal-Wallis test or Mann-Whitney U test. The main conditions causing high $PM_{10}$ concentration are summarized below; 1. When westerly wind prevailed (however, $PM_{10}$ decreased when winds were blowing from the east or north). 2. When the winds were calm, owing to accumulation of nearby emissions under stagnant conditions, or when the wind speed is in excess of 6 m/s, which shows the effect of fugitive dust produced by wind erosion. 3. Under the condition of high relative humidity and poor diffusion based on meteorological phenomenon such as fog, mist, and haze. 4. When the Sea-Land breezes existed, which occurred 70 days in Incheon during 2005 and contributed significantly to high $PM_{10}$ concentration in the coastal urban area. In conclusion, we have found that the meteorological factors have influence on $PM_{10}$ concentration in Incheon.

The Ka-band cloud radar (KCR) has been operated by the National Institute of Meteorological Research (NIMR) of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) at Boseong National Center for Intensive Observation of severe weather since 2013. Evaluation of data quality is an essential process to further analyze cloud information. In this study, we estimate the measurement error and the sampling uncertainty to evaluate data quality. By using vertically pointing data, the statistical uncertainty is obtained by calculating the standard deviation of each radar parameter. The statistical uncertainties decrease as functions of sampling number. The statistical uncertainties of horizontal and vertical reflectivities are identical (0.28 dB). On the other hand, the statistical uncertainties of Doppler velocity (spectrum width) are 2.2 times (1.6 times) larger at the vertical channel. The reflectivity calibration of KCR is also performed using X-band vertically pointing radar (VertiX) and 2-dimensional video disdrometer (2DVD). Since the monitoring of calibration values is useful to evaluate radar condition, the variation of calibration is monitored for five rain events. The average of calibration bias is 10.77 dBZ and standard deviation is 3.69 dB. Finally, the statistical characteristics of cloud properties have been investigated during two months in autumn using calibrated reflectivity. The percentage of clouds is about 26% and 16% on September to October. However, further analyses are required to derive general characteristics of autumn cloud in Korea.

Present weather plays an important role not only for atmospheric sciences but also for public welfare and road safety. While the widely used state-of-the-art visibility and present weather sensor yields present weather, a single type of measurement is far from perfect to replace long history of human-eye based observation. Truly automatic present weather observation enables us to increase spatial resolution by an order of magnitude with existing facilities in Korea. 8 years of human-eyed present weather records in 19 sites over Korea are compared with visibility sensors and auxiliary measurements, such as humidity of AWS. As clear condition agrees with high probability, next best categories follow fog, rain, snow, mist, haze and drizzle in comparison with human-eyed observation. Fog, mist and haze are often confused due to nature of machine sensing visibility. Such ambiguous weather conditions are improved with empirically induced criteria in combination with visibility and humidity. Differences between instrument manufacturers are also found indicating nonstandard present weather decision. Analysis shows manufacturer dependent present weather differences are induced by manufacturer's own algorithms, not by visibility measurement. Accuracies of present weather for haze, mist, and fog are all improved by 61.5%, 44.9%, and 26.9% respectively. The result shows that automatic present weather sensing is feasible for operational purpose with minimal human interactions if appropriate algorithm is applied. Further study is ongoing for impact of different sensing types between manufacturers for both visibility and present weather data.

This study uses a cloud-resolving storm simulator (CReSS) to understand the individual effect of determinant meteorological factors on snowfall characteristics in the Yeongdong region based on the rawinsonde soundings for two snowfall cases that occurred on 23 February (Episode 1) and 13 December (Episode 2) 2016; one has a single-layered cloud and the other has two-layered cloud structure. The observed cloud and precipitation (snow crystal) features were well represented by a CReSS model. The first ideal experiment with a decrease in low-level temperature for Episode 1 indicates that total precipitation amount was decreased by 19% (26~27% in graupel and 53~67% in snow) compared with the control experiment. In the ideal experiment that the upper-level wind direction was changed from westerly to easterly, although total precipitation was decreased for Episode 1, precipitation was intensified over the southwestern side (specifically in terrain experiment) of the sounding point (128.855°E, 37.805°N). In contrast, the precipitation for Episode 2 was increased by 2.3 times greater than the control experiment under terrain condition. The experimental results imply that the low-level temperature and upper-level dynamics could change the location and characteristics of precipitation in the Yeongdong region. However, the difference in precipitation between the single-layered experiment and control (two-layered) experiment for Episode 2 was negligible to attribute it to the effect of upper-level cloud. The current results could be used for the development of guidance of snowfall forecast in this region.

In this study, we improved the water-based condensation particle counter in Atmospheric Research Aircraft NARA and investigated the condensation particle number concentration over the Korean peninsula. Pump and set point information were changed to improve the instrument used by aircraft for observation. Ground-based observational result showed that the error between two instruments, which are water-based condensation particle counter and butanol-based condensation particle counter, was 4.7%. Aerial observational result revealed that the number concentration before improvement indicate large variation with unstable condition, whereas the number concentration after improvement indicate a reasonable variation. After improvement, the number concentration was 706±499 particle/cm³ in the West Sea and 257±80 particle/cm³ in Gangwon-do, and these are similar to the concentration range reported in previous studies. Notably, this is the first attempt to use aerial observation with water-based condensation particle counter to investigate condensation particle number concentration.

NMPB 2008을 포함한 일부 소음 예측식에서는 기상학적 요소를 고려할 수 있다. 특히 NMPB 2008을 이용하여 소음을 예측할 경우에는 기상학적인 요소의 고려는 필수적이다. 하지만, 우리나라의 실제 기상 상황을 반영할 수 있는 방법이 없는 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 기상학적 요소를 적용하기 위해서 하향 굴절 발생 빈도를 적용하여 소음도를 비교하였다. 기상학적 요소의 하향 굴절 발생 빈도의 증가에 따라 소음도가 증가하는 것을 확인하였고, 1kHz 이상의 주파수에서 거리에 따른 소음도의 차이에 상대적으로 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 기상학적 요소의 적용은 예측 소음도의 정확도를 향상시킬 것으로 기대된다.
