  • A Raman LIDAR system has been designed and constructed for quantitative measurement of water vapor mixing ratio. The comparison with commercial microwave radiometer and global navigation satellite system(GNSS) was performed for the precipitable water vapor(PWV) profile and total PWV. The result shows that the total GNSS-PWV and LIDAR-PWV have good correlation with each other. But, there is small difference between the two methods because of maximum measurement height in LIDAR and the GNSS method. There are some significant differences between Raman and MWR when the water vapor concentration changes quickly near the boundary layer or at the edge of a cloud. Finally we have decided that MWR cannot detect spatial changes but LIDAR can measure spatial changes.

  • Probability distribution of the sea surface slope is estimated using sun glitter images derived from visible radiometer on Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS) and surface vector winds observed by spaceborne scatterometers. The brightness of the visible images is converted to the probability of wave surfaces which reflect the sunlight toward GMS in grids of 0.25 deg $\times$ 0.25 deg. Slope and azimuth angle required for the reflection of the sun's ray toward GMS are calculated for each grid from the geometry of GMS observation and location of the sun. The GMS images are then collocated with surface wind data observed by three scatterometers. Using the collocated data set of about 30 million points obtained in a period of 4 years from 1995 to 1999, probability distribution function of the surface slope is estimated as a function of wind speed and azimuth angle relative to the wind direction. Results are compared with those of Cox and Munk (1954a, b). Surface slope estimated by the present method shows narrower distribution and much less directivity relative to the wind direction than that reported by Cox and Munk. It is expected that their data were obtained under conditions of growing wind waves. In general, wind waves are not always developing, and slope distribution might differ from the results of Cox and Munk. Most of our data are obtained in the subtropical seas under clear-sky conditions. This difference of the conditions may be the reason for the difference of slope distribution.

  • The CLW (Cloud Liquid Water) is a parameter of vital interest in both modeling and forecasting weather. In mesoscale models, the magnitude of latent heat effects corresponds to the amount of CLW, which is important in the development of a certain weather system. The goal of this study is the estimation of CLW by GMS-5 data which is compared with that of SSM/I data and GMR(Grounded Microwave Radiometer)data. First of all, we found out the relationship of cloud albedo to cloud thickness, and caculated the CLW using the result of the relationship. The CLW amount of SSM/I or GMR and that of GMS-5 were compared, respectively. The correlation coefficient was about 0.86 and RMSE was 9.23 mg/$cm^2$ between GMS-5 data and GMR data. And also the correlation coefficient was 0.84 and RMSE was 14.02 mg/$cm^2$ between GMS-5 data and SSM/I data.

  • This study analyzed the spectral reflectance characteristics of kaolinite and ASTER(Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflectance Radiometer) image to extract the distribution of kaolin mines in Hadong area, Gyeongsangnam-do. The band ratio model was applied to extract kaolinite using difference of wavelength absorption band distinct feature of minerals from ASTER image which is the major mineral of kaolin mines. According to the spectral reflectance curve of kaolinite, it showed the absorption features around 0.96 and $2.18{\mu}m$ by Al-OH. Also, it affected 1.24 and $1.38{\sim}1.41{\mu}m$ by OH. Applying for new band ratio model from the spectral features of kaolinite to ASTER image, it is possible to make the distribution map of mining traces including present- developing kaolin mines.

  • This study was designed to determine what sensor-based technologies might reliably and accurately predict irrigation scheduling needs of warm-season turfgrass. 'Floratam' St. Augustinegrass[Stenotaphrum secundatum(Walt.) Kuntze] and 'Sea Isle I' seashore paspalum(Paspalum vaginatum Swartz) were established in tubs in the Envirotron Turfgrass Research Laboratory in Gainesville, FL in the spring of 2002. Each grass was subjected to repeated dry-down cycles where irrigation was withheld. Sensor-based data were collected and these evaluations were used to determine if irrigation scheduling could be determined based on plant response during dry-down. Results indicated that reflectance indices($P{\le}0.001$) and soil moisture($P{\le}0.0001$) throughout the dry-down cycle can predict the need for irrigation scheduling as turf quality declined below acceptable levels.

  • 토양수분은 TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry)이나 Tensiometer 등의 장비를 이용하여 측정을 시행하고 있으나, 이를 위해서는 많은 인력과 경제적 자원이 소비될 뿐만 아니라 시공간적으로 측정할 수 있는 범위에 한계가 있다. 지상 관측의 대안으로 MIRAS(Microwave Imaging Radiometer with Aperture Synthesis)나 SMAP(Soil Moisture Active Passive), AMSR2(Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2) 등의 수동 마이크로파 위성 센서를 이용한 공간 토양수분 관측이 수행되었으나, 낮은 공간 해상도(9~36km)는 지역 규모의 토양수분 분포를 나타내기 충분하지 않고, 높은 불확실성을 내포하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 금강 상류의 용담댐 유역(930.0㎢)을 대상으로 Sentinel-1 C-band SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) 영상을 이용한 토지 피복 및 토양 속성을 고려한 10m 해상도의 토양수분 산출을 수행하였다. 용담댐 유역은 산림 79.7%, 논 9.0%, 밭 5.4%, 주거지 2.9%의 토지 피복 비율을 가지며 토양은 사양토(66.6%)와 양토(20.9%)가 우세하다. Sentinel-1 C-band SAR 영상은 SeNtinel Application Platform(SNAP)을 이용하여 전처리 후, 후방산란계수로 변환하였다. 토양수분 알고리즘은 TU-Wien change detection algorithm과 Regression model을 활용하였고, 검증을 위한 실측 토양수분 자료는 한국수자원공사(K-water)에서 제공하는 5년(2014~2018)간의 토양수분 관측자료를 이용하였다. 산출된 토양수분은 결정계수(Coefficient of determination, R2) 및 평균제곱근오차(Root Mean Square Error, RMSE)를 이용하여 실측 토양수분과 비교하였다. Sentinel-1 C-band SAR 영상을 이용한 고해상도의 토양수분 산출은 토지 피복 및 토양 속성을 고려한 지역 규모의 공간 토양수분 분포 및 시간적 변화를 표현 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

  • 적설은 지구 기후시스템과 수문순환 과정에서 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며, 겨울철의 적설은 봄철에 녹으면서 식생과 수자원 제공에 큰 영향을 주는 인자로 알려져 있다. 동아시아가 위치한 북반구는 적설량의 90%가 관찰되고 토지의 약 42%가 긴 시간동안 눈으로 덮여 있어 지표 에너지와 물 균형에 영향을 주고, 특히 수자원 관리를 위한 유출이나 토양수분과 같은 수문 인자에 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 적설을 정확하게 예측하는 것은 수자원 관리에 있어 매우 중요한 일이다. 한편, 이러한 수문 순환을 정확히 예측하기 위해 수문 분야에서는 지면모형(Land Surface Model, LSM)을 많이 사용하고 있다. 지면모형은 지표면과 대기 사이의 상호작용을 모의하기 위해 개발되었고, 에너지, 수증기, 이산화탄소 등의 다양한 인자들의 교환에 대하여 해석하며, 토양수분, 유출량 등의 수자원 분야의 주요 인자들을 산출하여 수자원 관리에 적극적으로 활용되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 National Center for Atmospheric Research(NCAR)에서 개발한 Community Land Model(CLM)을 사용하여 2001년부터 2016년까지 25km의 공간해상도로 동아시아 지역의 적설 모의를 평가하였다. CLM의 적설 모의 평가 인자는 Snow depth, Snow water equivalent의 2가지 인자를 대상으로 수행하였고, 모의 성능 평가를 위한 관측 자료로 NASA Aqua와 JAXA GCOM-W1 위성에 탑재된 Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer(AMSR) 센서에서 제공하는 위성 관측 자료와 Defense Meteorological Satellite Program(DMSP) 위성의 Special Sensor Microwave/Imager(SSM/I) 센서와 Nimbus-7 위성의 Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer(SMMR) 센서에서 제공하는 위성 관측 자료를 기반으로 지상 기상 관측소 자료와 조합하여 재생성한 European Space Agency Global Snow Monitoring for Climate Research (ESA GlobSnow)의 자료를 사용하였다. 그 결과 CLM의 적설 모의는 과대 추정하는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 본 연구의 결과는 동아시아 적설 모의 개선을 위해 자료 동화를 사용하는 후속 연구의 기초자료로 사용할 수 있다.

  • The Moderate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) is a multispectral sensor that has been actively researched in various fields using diverse land and atmospheric products. MODIS was first launched over 20 years ago, and the demand for novel sensors that can produce data comparable to that obtained using MODIS has continuously increased. In this study, land products obtained using the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) of the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) satellite launched in 2011 were introduced, including land surface temperature and vegetation indices such as the normalized difference vegetation index and enhanced vegetation index. These land products were compared with existing data obtained using MODIS to verify their local applicability in South Korea. Based on spatiotemporal monitoring of an extreme drought period in South Korea and the application of VIIRS land products, our results indicate that VIIRS can effectively replace MODIS multispectral sensors for agricultural drought monitoring.

  • Organic photovoltaic effects were studied in a device structure of ITO/CuPc/Al and ITO/CuPc/$C_{60}$/BCP/Al. A thickness of CuPc layer was varied from 10 nm to 50 nm, we have obtained that the optimum CuPc layer thickness is around 40 nm from the analysis of the current density-voltage characteristics in CuPc single layer photovoltaic cell. From the thickness-dependent photovoltaic effects in CuPc/$Cu_{60}$ heterojunction devices, higher power conversion efficiency was obtained in ITO/20nm CuPc/40nm $C_{60}$/Al, which has a thickness ratio (CuPc:$C_{60}$) of 1:2 rather than 1:1 or 1:3. Light intensity on the device was measured by calibrated Si-photodiode and radiometer/photometer of International Light Inc(IL14004).

  • Quantitative variability of AMSR2 (Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2) soil moisture data shows that the remotely sensed soil moisture is underestimated during Spring and Winter seasons and is overestimated during Summer and Fall seasons. Therefore the bias correction of the remotely sensed data is essential for the purpose of water resource management. To enhance their applicability, the bias of AMSR2 soil moisture data was corrected using ground observation data at Cheorwon Chuncheon, Suwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, and Jinju sites. Test statistics demonstrated that the correlation coefficient R is improved from 0.107~0.328 to 0.286~0.559 and RMSE is improved from 9.46~14.36 % to 5.38~9.62 %. Bias correction using ground network data improved the applicability of remotely sensed soil moisture data.
