Accurate simulation of the meteorological field is very important to assess the wind resources. Some researchers showed that sea surface temperature (SST) plays a leading role on the local meterological simulation. New Generation Sea Surface Temperature (NGSST), Operational Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Ice Analysis (OSTIA), and Real-Time Global Sea Surface Temperature (RTG SST) have different spatial distribution near the coast and OSTIA shows the best accuracy compared with buoy data in the southeastern coast of the Korean Peninsula. Those SST products are used to initialize the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model for November 13-23 2008. The simulation of OSTIA shows better result in comparison with NGSST and RTG SST. NGSST shows a large difference with OSTIA in horizontal and vertical wind fields during the weak synoptic condition, but wind power density shows a large difference during strong synoptic condition. RTG SST shows the similar patterns but smaller the magnitude and the extent.

This study analyzed the characteristics of the wind waves near the Korean marginal seas in the 2002 - 2005 year using the third generation wave model, WAVEWATCH - III model. In order to investigate the model performance, model results were compared with the marine meteorological observation results. The 4 years average correlation coefficient between model and observation shows very high value of about 0.77. The model of this study represents very well the characteristics of wind waves near the Korean marginal seas. Simulated monthly sea surface winds and wind waves show the evident spatial variations and this model also simulates very well seasonal characteristics of wind waves in this region.

Typhoon Rusa passed over the East China Sea and crossed over the Korea Peninsula on August 31, 2002. The core of the typhoon passed directly over a data buoy mooring site at ($127^{\circ}45'E,\;34^{\circ}25'\;N$) and several ARGOS-tracked drifters capable of measuring salinity. Peak hourly mean wind speed reached 28 m/s at the mooring site and wind pattern in the East China Sea changed from southerly wind to northwesterly wind after the typhoon passage. Two or three days before the typhoon tile drifter displacement changed significantly and the region-wide circulation pattern changed from a northeastward current to a westward current one week after the typhoon had passed. The surface water in the East China Sea was cooled to about $4^{\circ}C$ under the typhoon core and a general cooling occurred in most of the East China Sea with the exception of the Chinese coast. The salinity as observed by the drifters in the East China Sea increased about 2 psu but the near-shore water along the Korean coast observed by the mooring was freshened about 3 psu. The freshening of near-shore water was caused by an intrusion of off-shore water rather than local freshening by typhoon precipitation.

The southeastern coastal area of the Korean peninsula has a complex terrain including an irregular coastline and moderately high mountains. This implies that mesoscale circulations such as mountain-valley breeze and land-sea breeze can play an important role in wind field and ocean forcing. In this study, to improve the accuracy of complex coastal rind field(surface wind and sea surface wind), we carried out the sensitivity experiments based on PBL schemes in PSU/NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5), which is being used in the operational system at Korea Meteorological Administration. Four widely used PBL parameterization schemes in sensitivity experiments were chosen: Medium-Range Forecast (MRF), High-resolution Blackadar, Eta, and Gayno-Seaman scheme. Thereafter, case(2004. 8. 26 - 8. 27) of weak-gradient flows was simulated, and the time series and the vertical profiles of the simulated wind speed and wind direction were compared with those of hourly surface observations (AWS, BUOY) and QuikSCAT data. In the simulated results, the strength of rind speed of all schemes was overestimated in complex coastal regions, while that of about four different schemes was underestimated in islands and over the sea. Sea surface wind using the Eta scheme showed the highest wind speed over the sea and its distribution was similar to the observational data. Horizontal distribution of the simulated wind direction was very similar to that of real observational data in case of all schemes. Simulated and observed vertical distribution of wind field was also similar under boundary layer(about 1 km), however the simulated wind speed was underestimated in upper layer.

본 연구에서는 서해 연안에서의 실측-위성 해수면온도 차이를 규명하고 그 특성을 분석하기 위해 GCOM-W1/AMSR2 마이크로파 해수면온도 자료와 서해 연안에 위치한 덕적도, 칠발도, 외연도 해양기상 부이의 실측 수온 자료를 활용하여 2012년 7월부터 2017년 12월까지 총 6,457개의 일치점 자료를 생산하였다. 5년 이상의 덕적도, 칠발도, 외연도 해양 부이 수온 자료와 AMSR2 해수면온도를 비교하여 정확도를 제시하였다. 마이크로파 위성 해수면온도와 현장 관측 부이 해수면온도 간의 차이는 풍속과 수온 등 환경 요인에 대한 의존성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 낮시간 풍속이 약할 때 ($<6ms^{-1}$) AMSR2 해수면온도는 실측 해수면온도보다 높게 산출되며, 밤시간에 대해서는 풍속이 커질수록 양의 편차가 증가함을 밝혔다. 또한 AMSR2 해수면온도와 실측 해양부이 수온 간의 차이가 증가하는 경향은 낮은 온도에서 마이크로파 센서의 민감도의 저하와 육지에 의한 자료오염과 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 실측-위성 해수면온도 차이를 월별로 도시해본 결과, 마이크로파 위성 해수면온도의 편차는 강한 바람이 부는 겨울철에 가장 커진다고 알려져 있던 기존의 경향성과는 달리 덕적도, 칠발도 부이에서는 여름철 가장 큰 해수면온도 편차값이 나타났다. 이러한 차이는 부이의 위치에 따른 조석 혼합의 공간적 차등에 기인한 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구는 인공위성 합성장에 기여도가 높은 마이크로파 위성 해수면온도를 사용할 때 한반도 서해안에서 발생할 수 있는 문제점과 제한점을 제시하였다.

부유식 라이다는 해상풍력단지 조성 시 필수적인 풍황관측의 새로운 패러다임을 제공하는 시스템이다. 시간과 비용을 절약하고 환경에 미치는 영향을 최소화하며 지역사회의 반발까지 줄일 수 있어 업계의 표준으로 떠오르고 있다. 하지만 부표의 동요에 의한 교란요인이 관측자료의 신뢰도에 영향을 미치므로 안정적인 플랫폼의 설계 및 검증이 매우 중요하다. 국내에서는 이 분야의 기술 진출이 늦어짐에 따라 다수의 외국계 장비업체들이 국내시장을 장악하고 있다. 우리나라 서해안은 조수간만의 차가 매우 큰 천해성 환경이기 때문에 강한 해류가 반복적으로 나타나고, 계절별로 다른 강한 에너지의 파도가 형성된다. 본 논문은 이와 같이 복합적인 환경 특성을 지닌 우리나라 해역에서 라이다 운영에 적합한 부표식에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 본 논문에서는 가장 먼저 적용된 선박형 부표식의 최적화 설계 및 검증 사례를 소개하고, 향후 다양한 플랫폼 개발의 기반이 될 중요한 개념을 도출하고자 한다.

등부표는 조류, 바람 등 외력에 영향을 받아 위치가 항상 유동적이고 위치는 항로표지용 AIS 또는 RTU를 통해 확인할 수 있다. 위치 확인이 가능한 등부표의 최근 5년간(2017~2021년) 위치 데이터 분석 결과 위치 오류 데이터는 평균 15.4%로 나타났으며 항해 안전사고예방 및 관리를 위해서는 위치 오류 데이터를 검출하고 정제된 위치 데이터 획득이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 항로표지용 AIS 또는 RTU를 통해 획득한 위치 데이터를 DBSCAN Clustering하여 위치 오류 데이터를 검출하고 정제된 위치 데이터를 획득하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 위치 오류가 가장 많은 서해 해역 중 RTU가 설치된 군산항 1호 등부표의 21년도 위치 데이터를 Python library를 사용하여 DBSCAN Clustering 하였다. DBSCAN Clustering에 필요한 minPts는 2차원 데이터에 일반적으로 사용하는 값을 적용하였고 epsilon은 k-NN(최근접 이웃)알고리즘을 사용하여 값을 산출 및 적용하였다. DBSCAN Clustering 결과 minPts와 epsilon을 만족하지 못하는 위치 오류 데이터를 검출하였고 정제된 위치 데이터를 획득할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 항로표지용 AIS 또는 RTU가 설치된 등부표의 신뢰성 있는 위치 데이터를 획득할 수 있는 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있으며 항해 안전사고 예방에도 큰 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

The effects of high-resolution wind profiler (HWP) data on the wind distributions were evaluated in two different coastal areas during the study period (23-26 August, 2007), indicating weak-gradient flows. The analysis was performed using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model coupled with a three-dimensional variational (3DVAR) data assimilation system. For the comparison purpose, two coastal regions were selected as: a southwestern coastal (SWC) region characterized by a complex shoreline and a eastern coastal (EC) region surrounding a simple coastline and high mountains. The influence of data assimilation using the HWP data on the wind distributions in the SWC region was moderately higher than that of the EC region. In comparison between the wind speed and direction in the two coastal areas, the application of the HWP data contributed to improvement of the wind direction distribution in the SWC region and the wind strength in the EC region, respectively. This study suggests that the application of the HWP data exerts a large impact on the change in wind distributions over the sea and thus can contribute to the solution to lack of satellite and buoy data with their observational uncertainty.

In 2019, the Korean government announced the 3rd Basic Plan for Energy, which included expanding the rate of renewable energy generation by 30-40% by 2040. Hence, offshore wind power generation, which is relatively easy to construct in large areas, should be considered. The East Sea coast of Korea is a sea area where the depth reaches 50 m, which is deeper than the west coast, even though it is only 2.5 km away from the coastline. Therefore, for offshore wind power projects on the East Sea coast, a floating offshore wind power should be considered instead of a fixed one. In this study, a response analysis was performed by applying the analytical conditions of IEC61400-3-2 for the design of floating offshore wind power generation systems. In the newly revised IEC61400-3-2 international standard, design load cases to be considered in floating offshore wind power systems are specified. The upper structure applied to the numerical analysis was a 5-MW-class wind generator developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), and the marine environment conditions required for the analysis were based on the Ulsan Meteorological Buoy data from the Korea Meteorological Administration. The FAST v8 developed by NREL was used in the coupled analysis. From the simulation, the maximum response of the six degrees-of-freedom motion and the maximum load response of the joint part were compared. Additionally, redundancy was verified under abnormal conditions. The results indicate that the platform has a maximum displacement radius of approximately 40 m under an extreme sea state, and when one mooring line is broken, this distance increased to approximately 565 m. In conclusion, redundancy should be verified to determine the design of floating offshore wind farms or the arrangement of mooring systems.

We focus on the improvement of accuracy of sea surface wind over complex coastal area doling the warm season. Local Analysis Prediction System (LAPS) was used to improve the initial values in Mesoscale Meteorological model (MM5). During the clear summer days with weak wind speed, sea surface wind simulated with LAPS was compared with the case without LAPS. The results of modeling with LAPS has a good agreement mesoscale circulation such as mountain and valley winds on land and in case of modeling without LAPS, wind speed overestimated over the sea in the daytime. And the results of simulation with LAPS indicated similar wind speed values to observational data over the sea under influence of data assimilation using BUOY, QuikSCAT, and AMEBAS. The present study suggests that MM5 modelling with LAPS showed more improved results than that of without LAPS to simulate sea surface wind over the complex coastal area.
