대한민국 기상청에서 사용하고 있는 UM (Unified Model, UM) 모델의 국지예측시스템(Local Data Assimilation and Prediction System, LDAPS)은 수치모델 모의 시 대기경계층 유형에 따라 물리과정을 다르게 계산하기 때문에 이 과정을 검증하는 것은 모델의 정확도 향상에 중요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 수치모델의 대기경계층 유형을 관측자료 를 기반으로 검증하였다. 관측자료를 기반으로 대기경계층 유형을 분류하기 위해서 보성 표준기상관측소에서 수행한 여름철 집중관측자료(라디오존데, 플럭스관측장비, 도플러 라이다, 운고계)를 활용하였으며, 2019년 6월 18일 부터 8월 17일 까지 61일 동안에 총 201회의 관측자료를 분석하였다. 또한 관측자료와 수치모델 결과가 다른 경우를 보면, 관측자료를 기반으로 한 대기경계층 유형 분류 결과에서 2유형으로 분류되는 사례가 수치모델에서는 1유형으로 분류된 사례가 53회로 가장 많이 나타났다. 그 다음으로는 관측자료를 기반으로 한 대기경계층 유형 분류 결과에서 5유형과 6유형 으로 분류되는 사례가 수치모델에서는 3유형으로 분류된 사례가 많이 나타났다(각각 24회, 15회). 관측결과와 수치모델 모의 결과가 일치하지 않은 사례는 모두 층적운 접합 여부 및 적운 모의 등 수치모델의 구름물리 부분의 모의 성능에 기인하여 발생한 것이라고 분석된다. 따라서, 대기경계층 유형 분류의 구름물리과정의 모의 정확도를 개선하면 수치모델 성능이 향상 될 것으로 판단된다.

차세대도시농림융합기상사업단의 에너지수지타워 관측자료를 이용하여 수도권 기상과 복사특성에 대하여 분석하 였다. 서울 수도권에 위치한 총 14개 에너지수지타워의 기온, 풍속, 상대습도, 지표면 온도, 강수량, 단파 및 장파 복사 량과 복사관측자료를 이용하여 산출한 알베도와 방출률을 분석하였다. 월별 자료에 따르면, 도시에 위치한 중랑지점에 서 알베도는 낮고 방출률은 높은 특성을 나타냈고 교외지역인 부천지점에서는 반대의 특성이 나타났다. 자연적인 지표 상태에서는 태양복사에너지를 효과적으로 반사하여 대부분 중랑지점보다 알베도가 높게 나타났다. 연 평균 기온이 비교 적 높게 나타난 지점들은 서울 도심에 위치하고 있었으며, 알베도가 대체적으로 낮게 분포되었다. 가좌지점과 뚝섬지점은 관측 기온이 높았지만, 관측소 주변 유리벽 건물 및 한강으로 둘러싸인 환경으로 알베도가 비교적 높게 나타났다. 교외지역에 위치하고, 기온이 낮았던 지점들은 대체로 낮은 방출률을 나타냈다. 그 중 부천지점에서는 다소 높은 방출 률이 나타났는데, 이는 관측지점 주변이 논과 밭으로 구성되어 있어 교외지역의 관측지점보다 지표면 온도가 상대적으 로 낮게 관측되었기 때문이다. 결과적으로 도심지일수록 알베도는 감소하고, 방출률은 증가하는 경향을 확인할 수 있다. 또한, 서울 지역의 순 복사량이 100Wm−2 이하로 나타나 에너지가 대기 중에 흡수된 것으로 볼 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 자동기상관측시스템(AWS)을 이용하여 기상요소의 관측 자료를 수집하고 실시간으로 그 자료를 제공하는 웹 페이지를 개발하였다. 이 시스템은 실시간으로 자료를 제공하면서 동시에 데이터베이스(DB)로 누적하여, 사용자의 요청에 따라 과거의 기상 자료를 파일로 제공하는 기능도 있다. 완성된 페이지를 이용하여 학교 현장에서 지구과학 교과의 기상분야 탐구학습에 성공적으로 활용하였다. 이 연구 결과, 기상 관측 자료를 실시간으로 제공함으로써 기상 분야 탐구학습의 현장감을 높일 수 있게 되었다. 또 누적된 과거 기상 자료를 이용함으로써 시간규모가 너무 길어서 실질적인 탐구학습이 어렵던 지구과학 교과의 제약을 일부 극복하게 되었다.

한반도 남서해안에 위치한 흑산도 고층관측이 2003년 6월 1일부터 실시되고 있다. 이러한 흑산도 관측자료에 의한 수치예보개선효과를 보기 위하여 광주의 관측자료와 비교 분석하였다. 분석에는 MM5를 기본으로 제작한 호남지방 고밀도 예측시스템을 이용하였다. 먼저 지표면 마찰과 현열플러스의 차이에 의하여 광주와 흑산도의 바람장과 온도장은 다르게 나타났으며, 광주와 흑산도의 자료를 모두 동화시킨 수치예측 바람장과 기상장이 관측과 제일 잘 일치하였다. 강수면에서 비록 강수량은 과소평가를 하고 있으나, 강수시간과 강수구역은 흑산도자료를 포함하여 자료동화를 시킨 경우 관측과 유사하게 나타났다.

2002년 7월 8일에서 10일까지 AWS와 CTD를 이용하여 서해 중부 연안역에서 해양기상관측을 실시하였다. 수심이 낮은 태안반도 연안역에서 17˚C 이하의 냉수가 출현하였고, 36˚20'N와 36˚30'N 사이에 정선을 따라 조석전선이 형성되었다. 기온의 분포는 수온의 분포양상과 유사하게 나타났다. 덕적도 주변(Al)에서 24시간 연속관측결과, 조류와 같은 주기로 북동부로부터 고온저염수와 남서부로부터 저온고염수의 이동이 관측되었다. 관측기간 중에 7월 8일 23시에서 9일 1시 30분까지, 9일 3시에서 5시까지 해무가 발생하였다. 해무발생 시 북태평양 고기압이 약해지면서 기온은 18˚C까지 하강하였고, 바람은 2-4m/s의 북동풍이 불었다. 위성사진을 분석하였을 때, 이 안개는 표층수온이 높은 황해서부를 중심으로 발생하여 시간이 지나면서 관측해역으로 확장된 증기안개이다. 이 해무는 기온과 풍속이 상승하면서 소멸되었다.

This study analyzed the characteristics of strong winds accompanying typhoons for a period of 116 years, from 1904 to 2019, when modern weather observations began in Korea. Analysis shows that the average wind speed and high wind rate caused by typhoons were higher over the sea and in the coastal areas than in the inland areas. The average wind speed was higher over the West Sea than over the South Sea, but the rate of strong wind was greater over the South Sea than over the West Sea. The average wind speed decreased by 1980 and recently increased, while the rate of strong winds decreased by 1985 and has subsequently increased. By season, the strong winds in autumn (september and october) were stronger than those in summer (june, july, and august). Strong winds were also more frequent in autumn than in summer. The analysis of the changes in strong winds caused by typhoons since the 1960s shows that the speed of strong winds in august, september, and october has increased more recently than in the past four cycles. In particular, the increase in wind speed was evident in fall (september and october). Analysis of the results suggests that the stronger wind is due to the effects of autumn typhoons, and the increased possibility of strong winds.

Numerical experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of data assimilation of observational data on weather and PM (particulate matter) prediction. Observational data applied to numerical experiment are aircraft observation, satellite observation, upper level observation, and AWS (automatic weather system) data. In the case of grid nudging, the prediction performance of the meteorological field is largely improved compared with the case without data assimilations because the overall pressure distribution can be changed. So grid nudging effect can be significant when synoptic weather pattern strongly affects Korean Peninsula. Predictability of meteorological factors can be expected to improve through a number of observational data assimilation, but data assimilation by single data often occurred to be less predictive than without data assimilation. Variation of air pressure due to observation nudging with high prediction efficiency can improve prediction accuracy of whole model domain. However, in areas with complex terrain such as the eastern part of the Korean peninsula, the improvement due to grid nudging were only limited. In such cases, it would be more effective to aggregate assimilated data.

This study analyzes relationship between land cover change and local climate data of 46 weather stations in South Korea from the 1980s to 2000s. The used area shows proportional relationships to mean daily min. temperature and mean temperature, and a reverse relationship is found between the used area and relative humidity. However, the forest indicates reverse relationships to mean daily min. temperature and mean temperature. The agricultural land causes to increase in relative humidity and decrease in mean wind speed, while the water increases mean daily min. temperature, daily min. temperature and mean temperature as well as mean wind speed. The urbanization type (used area + barren) shows high correlations with temperature and humidity. The suburbanization type (agricultural land + forest + grass + wetland) has high correlations with temperature and wind speed. High correlations are also found between the waterfront type (wetland + water), and temperature and wind speed. It can be concluded that change in land cover around weather station obviously influences on climate data of the weather station and it is also expected that reliability and homogeneity of climate data from a weather station can be enhanced by this study.

Relocation of weather station leads to changes in geographical climate factors such as latitude, longitude, elevation, topographical relief and land cover of surrounding area that inf luence on local climate. This study analyzes spatio-temporal characteristics and relationships between geographical factors such as location, topographical relief and land cover, and changes in climate data such as temperature, precipitation and wind due to relocation of 12 weather stations in South Korea. Changes in temperature and moisture are attributed to changes in land cover by the relocation. Wonju and Gumi where the stations were relocated from rural to new built-up area show increases in temperature, while temperature in Sokcho, Changwon, Cheonan, Daejeon, Gunsan and Mokpo decreased with the relocations from urban to rural area. Relative humidity in Mokpo, Gunsan and Daejeon increases due to increase in farming land. Changes in topographical relief influence on precipitation, wind and duration of sunshine. The relocation in Chungju to interior of basin led to decreases in precipitation and duration of sunshine, and Boryeong shows decrease in precipitation by the relocation from windward slope to hilly coastal area. Wind speed in Gunsan with the relocation from coastal to inland area decreased due to influence of neighboring hills. Shadow effect by neighboring building or vegetation can be attributed to changes in duration of sunshine in Gwangju and Wonju.

This study is analysed on corelation between topographical conditions around 36 weather stations and climate data in South Korea. As a result of analysis, the altitude above sea level shows linear negative corelation with temperature. The low relative height sites appear that sunshine duration and temperature are the lowest and precipitation and precipitation duration are bigger than average by influences of surrounding landform. The relief amount shows high positive corelation with precipitation phenomena such as precipitation, precipitation duration and cloud amount. In terms of the aspect, southern slope sites show the highest daily minimum temperature and sunshine duration, and western slope sites show daily mean and maximum temperatures. The eastern close sites appear the lowest temperature and the highest humidity. The distance from coastline shows linear negative corelation with temperature data. The far distance sites from coastline appear that temperature, precipitation and precipitation duration are the lowest. In respect of landform structures, the piedmont areas show the highest moisture related indicators. The hill areas show the lowest humidity and cloud amount and the longest sunshine duration. Temperature and wind speed are low in basin areas.

The air quality data is important for understanding and analyzing a surrounding influence. In that light, it is positively necessary for a propriety assessment to determine a location of the air quality monitoring sites. In this study, the climate analysis about temperature and wind, using the meteorological data in the Pohang, is conducted to do that. In the next stage, we distinguished the wind by east-west or north-south component, which has less correlation than temperature, analyzed and divided the wind sector. As the result, the wind circumstance of the Pohang is divided into major 5 wind sector; that is the urban area, the northeast coastal area, the east ocean and the west mountainous area. We think that an analysis on detailed wind sector by utilizing the numerical simulation is needed.

We focused on effects on data assimilation of simulated wind fields by using upper-air observations (wind profiler and sonde data). Local Analysis Prediction System (LAPS), a type of data assimilation system, was used for wind field modeling. Five cases of simulation experiments for sensitivity analysis were performed : which are EXP0) non data assimilation, EXP1) surface data, EXP2) surface data and sonde data, EXP3) surface data and wind profiler data, EXP4) surface data, sonde data and wind profiler data. These were compared with observation data. The result showed that the effects of data assimilation with wind profiler data were found to be greater than sonde data. The delicate wind fields in complex coastal area were simulated well in EXP3. EXP3 and EXP4 using wind profiler data with vertically high resolution represented well sophisticated differences of wind speed compared with EXP1 and EXP2, this is because the effects of wind profiler data assimilation were sensitively adjusted to first guess field than those of sonde observations.

In this study, climate analysis and wind sector division were conducted for a propriety assessment to determine the location of air quality monitoring sites in the Busan metropolitan area. The results based on the meteorological data(2000～2004) indicated hat air temperature is strongly correlated between 9 atmospheric monitoring sites, while wind speed and direction are not. This is because wind is strongly affected by the surrounding terrain and the obstacles such as building and tree. In the next stage, we performed cluster analysis to divide wind sector over the Busan metropolitan area. The cluster analysis showed that the Busan metropolitan area is divided into 6 wind sectors. However 1 downtown and 2 suburbs an area covering significantly broad region in Busan are not divided into independent sectors, because of the absence of atmospheric monitoring site. As such, the Busan metropolitan area is finally divided into 9 sectors.

This study presents the characteristics of nocturnal inversion layer and their effect on the concentration variations of surface air pollutants using tethersonde and automatic weather station (AWS, 2 layer tower) system in Ulsan during 2003. The method for the distinction of inversion intensity was decided based on the sum of nocturnal temperature gradient. As the results, there was a close correlation (correlation coefficient of 0.76) between the maximum inversion height obtained from tethersonde and the sum of nocturnal temperature gradient. The air pollutant concentration was also directly proportional to the inversion intensity. When the inversion intensity was strong in the nighttime, ozone (O3) concentration was lower, while nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentration was higher. The carbon monoxide (CO) concentration was gradually higher according to the nocturnal inversion intensity, whereas sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentration was relatively constant. In addition, we found that there was no correlation between the inversion intensity and TSP concentration.

The purpose of the present study is to develope the estimation scheme for sensible heat flux by semi-empirical approach using routine meteorological data such as solar radiation and air temperature. To compare observed sensible heat flux with estimated sensible heat flux, the sensible heat fluxes were measured by three dimensional sonic anemometer-thermometer. The field observation was performed during 1 year from December 1, 1995 to November 30, 1996 on a rice paddy field in Chunchon basin. The heat fluxes were measured at a heights of 5m and mean meteorological variables were obtained at two levels, 2.5m(or 1.5m) and 10m. Since condition of rice paddy field such as, wetness of the field, roughness length, vary widely, we devided annual data to 5 periods. Comparing with two sensible heat fluxes, the results showed that the correlation coefficients were more than 0.86. Thus, we can conclude that the estimation method of sensible heat fluxes using routine meteorological data is practical and reliable enough.
