The spatial resolution of local weather and climate information for agronomic practices exceeds the current weather service scale. To supplement the insufficient spatial resolution of official forecasts and observations, gridded climate data are frequently generated. Most ecological models can be run using gridded climate data to produce ecosystem responses at landscape scales. In this lecture, state of the art techniques derived from geospatial climatology, which can generate gridded climate data by spatially interpolating point observations at synoptic weather stations, will be introduced. Removal of the urban effects embedded in the interpolated surfaces of daily minimum temperature, incorporation of local geographic potential for cold air accumulation into the minimum temperature interpolation scheme, and solar irradiance correction for daytime hourly temperature estimation are presented. Some experiences obtained from their application to real landscapes will be described.

The purpose of the investigation was to establish how the pineal-adrenal axis plays an important role in thermoregulation in female goats under short-term heat stress. The study was conducted to observe the influence of glucocorticoids on pineal function in goats and its influence on stress alleviation capability. Melatonin and glucocorticoid secretions and several other endocrine and biochemical blood parameters reflecting the animals well being were determined over a one week period after goats had been exposed to $40^{\circ}C$ and 60% relative humidity for 10 days. Six female goats were used in the study. These animals served as self controls prior to the start of the experiment. The study was conducted for a period of seventeen days in a psychrometric chamber at $40^{\circ}C$ and 60% relative humidity. Chemical pinealectomy was achieved using propranolol followed by exogenous hydrocortisone treatment. Blood samples were drawn twice daily after each treatment to find the effect of hydrocortisone on plasma glucose, total protein, total cholesterol, cortisol, insulin, aldosterone, melatonin and corticosterone. Chemical pinealectomy significantly ($p{\leq}0.05$) affected plasma levels of the parameters studied and these could be significantly ($p{\leq}0.05$) counteracted by administration of hydrocortisone. Chemical pinealectomy aggravated thermal stress, although administration of hydrocortisone could ameliorate the condition. This indicated a role of the pineal in support of thermoregulation. The study establishes the modulating effect of glucocorticoids on pineal activity to relieve thermal stress in goats.

In order to investigate the mechanism of adaptation to long-term heat stress, six female buffalo calves of about 7 to 8 months age, were exposed to the cool-comfort environment (THI 65) for 21 days to obtain normal values of blood acid-base. An adaptive response of acid-base regulation was determined to long term (21 days) exposure of buffalo calves to hot-dry (THI 80) and hot-humid (THI 84) conditions. Higher rectal temperature and respiratory rate was recorded under hot-humid exposure compared to hot-dry. Significant reduction in the rectal temperature and respiratory rate on day 21 of hot-dry exposure indicated early thermal adaptation compared to hot-humid. Decreasing rectal temperature and respiratory rate from day 1 to 21 was associated with concurrent decrease in blood pH and pCO2. Increased plasma chloride concentration with low base excess in blood and in extracellular fluid suggested compensatory response to respiratory alkalosis. Reduced fractional excretion of sodium with increased fractional excretion of potassium and urine flow rate indicated renal adaptive response to heat stress.

The present experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of simulated heat stress on digestibility and methane ($CH_4$) emission. Four non-lactating crossbred cattle were exposed to $25^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$, $35^{\circ}C$, and $40^{\circ}C$ temperature with a relative humidity of 40% to 50% in a climatic chamber from 10:00 hours to 15:00 hours every day for 27 days. The physiological responses were recorded at 15:00 hours every day. The blood samples were collected at 15:00 hours on 1st, 6th, 11th, 16th, and 21st days and serum was collected for biochemical analysis. After 21 days, fecal and feed samples were collected continuously for six days for the estimation of digestibility. In the last 48 hours gas samples were collected continuously to estimate $CH_4$ emission. Heat stress in experimental animals at $35^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ was evident from an alteration (p<0.05) in rectal temperature, respiratory rate, pulse rate, water intake and serum thyroxin levels. The serum lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase activity and protein, urea, creatinine and triglyceride concentration changed (p<0.05), and body weight of the animals decreased (p<0.05) after temperature exposure at $40^{\circ}C$. The dry matter intake (DMI) was lower (p<0.05) at $40^{\circ}C$ exposure. The dry matter and neutral detergent fibre digestibilities were higher (p<0.05) at $35^{\circ}C$ compared to $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ exposure whereas, organic matter (OM) and acid detergent fibre digestibilities were higher (p<0.05) at $35^{\circ}C$ than $40^{\circ}C$ thermal exposure. The $CH_4$ emission/kg DMI and organic matter intake (OMI) declined (p<0.05) with increase in exposure temperature and reached its lowest levels at $40^{\circ}C$. It can be concluded from the present study that the digestibility and $CH_4$ emission were affected by intensity of heat stress. Further studies are necessary with respect to ruminal microbial changes to justify the variation in the digestibility and $CH_4$ emission during differential heat stress.

Objective: Present study explores the effect of hot summer period on the glycolytic rate of early post-mortem meat quality of Ghungroo and Large White Yorkshire (LWY) pig and comparative adaptability to high temperature between above breeds by shifting the expression of stress related genes like mono-carboxylate transporters (MCTs) and heat shock proteins (HSPs). Methods: Healthy pigs of two different breeds, viz., LYW and Ghungroo (20 from each) were maintained during hot summer period (May to June) with a mean temperature of about $38^{\circ}C$. The pigs were slaughtered and meat samples from the longissimus dorsi (LD) muscles were analyzed for pH, glycogen and lactate content and mRNA expression. Following 24 h of chilling, LD muscle was also taken from the carcasses to evaluate protein solubility and different meat quality measurements. Results: LWY exhibited significantly (p<0.01) higher plasma cortisol and lactate dehydrogenase concentration than Ghungroo indicating their higher sensitivity to high temperature. LD muscle from LWY pigs revealed lower initial and ultimate pH values and higher drip loss compared to Ghungroo, indicating a faster rate of pH fall. LD muscle of Ghungroo had significantly lower lactate content at 45 min postmortem indicating normal postmortem glycolysis and much slower glycolytic rate at early postmortem. LD muscle of LWY showed rapid postmortem glycolysis, higher drip loss and higher degrees of protein denaturation. Ghungroo exhibited slightly better water holding capacity, lower cooking loss and higher protein solubility. All HSPs (HSP27, HSP70, and HSP90) and MCTs (MCT1, MCT2, and MCT4) in the LD muscle of pigs inclined to increase more in Ghungroo than LWY when exposed to high temperature. Conclusion: Effect of high temperature on the variation of HSPs and MCTs may play a crucial role in thermal tolerance and adaptation to different climatic conditions, pH regulation, muscle acidification, drip loss, protein denaturation and also in postmortem meat quality development.

Based on surface energy balance climatology, surface temperatures should respond to drying conditions well before plant response. To test this hypothesis, land surface temperatures (LST) derived from MODIS data were analyzed to determine how the data were correlated with climatic water balance variables and NDVI anomalies during a growing season in Western and Central Kansas. Daily MODIS data were integrated into weekly composites so that each composite data set included the maximum temperature recorded at each pixel during each composite period. Time-integrated, or cumulative values of the LST deviation standardized with mean air temperatures had significantly high correlation coefficients with SM, AE/PE, and MD/PE, ranging from 0.65 to 0.89. The Standardized Thermal Index (STI) is proposed in this study to accomplish the objective. The STI, based on surface temperatures standardized with observed mean air temperatures, had significant temporal relationships with the hydroclimatological factors. STI classes in all the composite periods also had a strong correlation with NDVI declines during a drought episode. Results showed that, based on LST, air temperature observations, and water budget analysis, NDVI declines below normal could be predicted as early as 8 weeks in advance in this study area.

난방도일과 냉방도일은 에너지 사용량 예측에 사용되는 개념으로 특정 지역의 열기후적 특성을 이해하는 데 유용하게 사용되어 왔다. 난방도일과 냉방도일의 공간 분포는 반대로 나타난다. 난방도일의 경우 남부에서 최소가 나타나고 북쪽으로 올수록 그 값이 증가하고 강원도를 포함한 북동쪽에서 최대가 나타났다. 냉방도일은 제주도와 남부에서 최대가 나타나고 북쪽으로 올수록 그 값이 감소한다. 냉방도일에는 최근 30년간 뚜렷한 변화 경향이 나타나지 않지만 난방도일의 경우는 모든 지점에서 뚜렷한 감소 경향이 나타났다. 난방도일의 감소는 최저기온의 급격한 상승에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 또한 난방도일의 감소는 연 평균기온의 증가보다 뚜렷한 변화 경향을 나타냈다. 평균기온에서 뚜렷한 변화 경향이 탐지되지 않더라도 기후변화의 영향이 존재할 수 있음을 나타낸다. 또한 최근 급격한 난방도일의 감소는 기후편차지수의 증가를 초래하여 한반도 내 난방도일의 변동이 커지고 있음을 보여주고 있다.

주산지 배추재배농가에서 기후변화 적응수단의 하나로 사용할 수 있는 것이 정식기 이동이다. 본 연구에서는 여름배추 품종을 대상으로 주어진 정식일부터 매일 기온의 경과에 의해 최적수확기를 예측하고, 결정된 생육 기간 중 기온자료에 의해 배추의 잠재수량(생체중)을 추정할 수 있는 방법을 고안하였다. 이를 위해 정식기 이동에 따른 생육기간 중 기후조건 변화를 온도 기반 열단위로 표현하고, 이를 생육기와 결구기에 맞게 조절한 발육 속도함수에 적용하여 생리적 성숙기를 추정하는 생물계절모형을 개발하였다. 다음에는 생물계절모형에 의해 결정된 재배가능기간에 대하여 매일 열단위 누적에 의해 여름배추의 잠재수량을 계산할 수 있는 수량예측모형(Ahn et al., 2014)을 결합하였다. 이 생물계절-수량 결합모형을 RCP8.5 기반의 남한 상세 기후시나리오(2000-2100)에 적용하여 7월 1일, 8월 1일, 9월 1일, 그리고 10월 1일 등 다양한 날짜에 배추를 정식할 경우 현재평년(2001-2010)과 미래평년(2011-2040, 2041-2070, 2071-2100)에 예상되는 수량성을 잠재수량에 대한 백분율로 표현하였다. 그 결과를 토대로 남한 전역을 810개 집수역으로 나누고 임의 집수역의 최적정식일을 사용자가 손쉽게 찾을 수 있는 시간 - 공간 - 수량 3차원 평가도표를 고안하였다. 이 방법은 미래 새로운 재배적지 탐색은 물론 기존 주산지에서 품종변경 없이 기후변화 적응이 가능한 작부체계 개발에도 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

기상청 동네예보의 공간규모를 농촌현실에 맞게 상세화 하는 일은 농업기상정보의 가치를 높이기 위한 전제조건이다. 이 연구에서는 기온역전조건에서 기상청의 중규모 기온예보를 집수역 내 지형특성이 반영된 국지기온예보로 상세화 할 수 있는 간단한 기법을 제시하였다. 지리산 남사면에 위치한 전형적인 복잡지형의 농촌 집수역($50km^2$)을 대상지역으로 선정하고, 2011년 10월부터 2012년 4월 기간 중 기온역전에 의한 냉기집적이 의심되는 62일에 대해 동네예보 0600기온자료($5km{\times}5km$ 격자)를 수집하였다. 여기에 단일집수역의 냉기호 및 온난대효과를 모의할 수 있는 소기후모형을 적용하여 상세격자($30m{\times}30m$) 단위로 표출하였다. 연구대상지역에 설치된 무인기상관측기 12지점 자료를 이용, 보정된 0600 기온예보값을 검증한 결과, 기온역전일의 평균 ME는 ${\pm}1^{\circ}C$, RMSE는 $1.6^{\circ}C$를 보였다. 이 결과는 동네예보 경우(ME ${\pm}2^{\circ}C$, RMSE $1.9^{\circ}C$)에 비하여 지역적 편기성이 크게 개선된 것으로서, 찬 공기가 집적되는 저지대에서 더욱 개선효과가 컸다. 보정된 예보기온의 추정오차가 $2^{\circ}C$ 미만인 경우는 전체 기온역전일 중 80%에 해당하였으며, 절반 정도는 추정오차가 $1^{\circ}C$ 이내였다. 동상해 위험이 큰 기상조건에서 소기후모형에 의해 보정된 동네예보를 지역 내 각 농장에 제공할 경우 무보정 동네예보를 제공하는 것에 비해 신뢰도를 크게 높일 수 있어 동상해 위험의 조기경보시스템 실용화에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
